Lurantis (ラランテス Rarantesu) is a Grass-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII. It is the evolved form of Fomantis.
Biology
Physiology
Lurantis is a plant-like Pokémon with insectoid traits. Its body has shades of pink with white accents. It has light red eyes and two green antennae with a small green lump between them. There are four extensions to the top half of its head: two on the top with red tips that resemble ears, and one on each side with white tips that resemble stylized hair. Its forearms resembles a mantis's arm and are each tipped with a green claw.
Behavior
Lurantis are able to defeat their enemies with their elegant appearance and pleasant-smelling aroma. Due to their beautiful moves and bright coloration, Lurantis are said to be the most beautiful of all Grass-type Pokémon. Also, they dislike lazy trainers as they mostly want their trainers to look after them with care. They use their sickle-shaped petals to fire devastating energy beams by drawing sunlight, which have enough strength to slice through thick metal plates.
With enough care from its trainer, a Lurantis will display vivid colors.
Diet
Lurantis feeds on small bugs, which it lures to itself by imitating a flower.
Evolution
Lurantis evolves from Fomantis at Lv. 34 during the daytime.

Trivia
- Despite having a feminine look, Lurantis is able to have a 50% chance of being male or female.
Origin
Lurantis is based off of the concept of an orchid mantis, but reversed. Orchid mantises use their color and claws to look like flowers, however, Lurantis is based off of a flower imitating a mantis, explaining why it is a Grass-type Pokémon instead of a Bug-type Pokémon. Its body also resembles a kimono dress.
Etymology
Lurantis is a portmanteau of lure and mantis.
