Pokédex entries

Plant Cloak

Diamond	To shelter itself from cold, wintry winds, it covers itself with a cloak made of twigs and leaves.
Pearl	If its cloak is broken in battle, it quickly remakes the cloak with materials nearby.
Platinum	Even if it is born where there are no cocooning materials, it somehow always ends up with a cloak.
HeartGold SoulSilver	It covers itself with a cloak to shelter from the cold. When it’s hot, its cloak is thinner.
Black White Black 2 White 2	Even if it is born where there are no cocooning materials, it somehow always ends up with a cloak.
X Omega Ruby	To shelter itself from cold, wintry winds, it covers itself with a cloak made of twigs and leaves.
Y Alpha Sapphire	If its cloak is broken in battle, it quickly remakes the cloak with materials nearby.
Brilliant Diamond	To shelter itself from cold, wintry winds, it covers itself with a cloak made of twigs and leaves.
Shining Pearl	If its cloak is broken in battle, it quickly remakes the cloak with materials nearby.
Legends: Arceus	If its cloak is even slightly damaged, Burmy will immediately repair it with whatever is close at hand. The Pokémon within the cloak is scrawny and vulnerable to the cold.

Sandy Cloak

Legends: Arceus	It creates a cloak by weaving together sand, mud, and silk it has spat out. This earthen cloak is ruined by wind and rain, so the Pokémon hides away in caves and other such places.

Trash Cloak

Legends: Arceus	When confronted by a lack of other materials, Burmy will create its cloak using dust and refuse. The cloak seems to be more comfortable than one would think.
