Cherrim (Japanese: チェリム, HepburnCherimu) (chuh-RIM[1]) is a Grass-type Pokémon introduced in the Generation IV.

Biology[]

Physiology[]

When Cherrim is closed up, it looks like a bud of a tulip, but when it opens up, it look like a flower of a cherry tree.

Behavior[]

Every time a Cherrim blooms, it releases all of its anger to keep itself happy. Once hit by beams of sunlight, however, they bloom into the Sunshine Form. In this form, Cherrim are very active and excitable, basking fully in the sun’s rays by facing all of their petals towards it. They uses this precious time under the sun to photosynthesize as much energy as they can, since they are unable to do so in its other form.

They can store large amounts of sugars in their bodies, which they use to endure long periods in the Overcast Form. In the Sunshine Form, they appear eternally joyful, while in Overcast Form they seem constantly gloomy. Once the sunlight wanes, Cherrim close their petals and return to the Overcast Form, patiently awaiting for the sun to return. Their petals are deceptively tough, protecting them from pecking bird Pokémon.

Cherrim live on tree branches or tree tops in order to absorb sunlight.

Evolution[]

Cherrim is the evolved form of Cherubi. Cherubi evolves into Cherrim at level 25.

  • Shield

    Overcast Form: 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: The faint scent that emanates from its full blossom entices bug Pokémon to it.
