Mothim (Japanese: ガーメイル Gaameiru) is a Bug/ -type Pokémon introduced in Generation IV.
Biology
Physiology
Mothim is based off of a moth. He has yellow wings with orange on the outer and inner tips. His antennae are white, with orange on top. His eyes are orange. His base body is black, with an orange stripe, and white legs.
Special abilities
Mothim has the Abilities Swarm and Tinted Lens. He also can be used in Sky Battles. Swarm raises the power of Bug type moves when Mothim's HP is low. Tinted Lens doubles the power of a not very effective move, e.g. if Mothim used Bug Buzz on Jigglypuff.
Evolution
Mothim evolves from any Male Burmy. Burmy evolves into Mothim at level 20.

Trainers with a Mothim
Origin
Mothim is based off of the adult form of a bagworm moth. Bagworm larvae are only capable of maturing into moths if they are male, which is why Burmy can only evolve into Mothim if it is male. It may also take inspiration from the Death's-head Hawkmoth, a moth that is shown to raid beehives for their honey and nectar, similarly to how Mothim steals honey from Combee.
Etymology
His name comes from a combination of the words moth and him, the latter being a pronoun to signify something male, referring to Mothim's male-only species.
