Erika's Gloom

Erika has a Gloom appearing in Pokémon Scent-sation! on whom Ash rescued from Team Rocket who set the gym in flames. Florinda Showers has a Gloom appearing in Make Room For Gloom. In Pokémon Food Fight!, Gulzar had a Gloom. A Gloom appeared in Pinch Healing!, Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part 1, League Unleashed!, respectively. Several appeared in Whichever Way the Wind Blows.

Trivia[]

  • Gloom is the only dual-type Pokémon that evolves into a mono-type Pokémon (as it loses its Poison type upon evolving into Bellossom).
  • Gloom is the only Grass-type Pokémon with the ability Stench.
  • Gloom and Eevee are the only Pokémon that can evolve in two different forms, both requiring an evolution stone.

Origin[]

Gloom is possibly based on a Rafflesia flower, a large flower known for its awful stench. It may also be based on trees seeing how its drool resembles tree sap.

Etymology[]

Gloom may derive from gloom (sadness), glume (a leaf-like structure on plants), and bloom.

Names in other languages[]

  • Japanese: Kusaihana (kusai hana literally means "stinking flower")
  • French: Ortide (mix of orite (nettle) and fetide (stinky))
  • Spanish: Gloom
  • Italian: Gloom
  • German: Duflor (mix of duft (scent) and flor (bloom))
  • Swedish: Stanka
