Wimpod (コソクムシ Kosokumushi) is a bug/water-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.
Biology
Physiology
Behavior
Wimpod are mostly timid and they'll usually run away when they see other Pokémon and people. However, they sometimes will get close to creatures they feel interested, especially the ones that aren't moving.
As they have a habit of storing things they've eaten, not only they're being seen as cleaners of the sea, but also this causes some greedy people and Pokémon like Murkrow hoping to steal the treasures, such as pearls, they have stored.
Natural abilities
Evolution
Wimpod evolves into Golisopod at level 30.
