Evolution chart
Pokédex entries
Appletun
| Sword | Eating a sweet apple caused its evolution. A nectarous scent wafts from its body, luring in the bug Pokémon it preys on. |
|---|---|
| Shield | Its body is covered in sweet nectar, and the skin on its back is especially yummy. Children used to have it as a snack. |
| Scarlet | It feeds mainly on sweet apples. It will also eat small bug Pokémon that are attracted by its sweet nectar. |
| Violet | When some Lechonk come along to lick the sweet nectar on Appletun’s back, Appletun will spew sticky nectar at them to drive them away. |
Gigantamax
| Sword | It blasts its opponents with massive amounts of sweet, sticky nectar, drowning them under the deluge. |
|---|---|
| Shield | Due to Gigantamax energy, this Pokémon’s nectar has thickened. The increased viscosity lets the nectar absorb more damage than before. |
