Pokédex entries
Cherrim
Diamond | It blooms during times of strong sunlight. It tries to make up for everything it endured as a bud. |
---|---|
Pearl | It is docile as a bud, but turns cheerful when it blooms. It folds back into a bud if sunlight wanes. |
Platinum | If it senses strong sunlight, it opens its folded petals to absorb the sun’s rays with its whole body. |
HeartGold SoulSilver | During times of strong sunlight, its bud blooms, its petals open fully, and it becomes very active. |
Black White Black 2 White 2 | If it senses strong sunlight, it opens its folded petals to absorb the sun’s rays with its whole body. |
X Omega Ruby | During times of strong sunlight, its bud blooms, its petals open fully, and it becomes very active. |
Y Alpha Sapphire | If it senses strong sunlight, it opens its folded petals to absorb the sun’s rays with its whole body. |
Overcast Form
Sword | As a bud, it barely moves. It sits still, placidly waiting for sunlight to appear. |
---|---|
Shield | Its folded petals are pretty tough. Bird Pokémon can peck at them all they want, and Cherrim won’t be bothered at all. |
Sunshine Form
Sword | After absorbing plenty of sunlight, Cherrim takes this form. It’s full of energy while it’s like this, and its liveliness will go on until sundown. |
---|---|
Shield | The faint scent that emanates from its full blossom entices bug Pokémon to it. |
