Wimpod is based on different types of isopods (segmented crustaceans that can often roll up into balls) such as pillbugs, wharf roaches, and deep-sea isopods. It may also be based on trilobites, silverfish (a type of insect that often runs away from things that startle it) and, as it leaves the ground behind it clean as it runs, may also be based on robot vacuum cleaners, possibly the Electrolux Trilobite.

Wimpod (Japanese: コソクムシ, Hepburn: 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.

Trivia

  • Wimpod is the second Bug and Water-type Pokémon known to date following Surskit.
  • Wimpod is considered the Alolan counterpart to Magikarp due to their many similarities:
    • Both are one of the weakest Pokémon in each of their generations.
    • Both evolve into powerful Pokémon, Gyarados and Golisopod.
    • Both are hard to train due to their low base stats.
    • Both are Water-types.

Origin

Wimpod is based on different types of isopods (segmented crustaceans that can often roll up into balls) such as pillbugs, wharf roaches, and deep-sea isopods. It may also be based on trilobites, silverfish (a type of insect that often runs away from things that startle it) and, as it leaves the ground behind it clean as it runs, may also be based on robot vacuum cleaners, possibly the Electrolux Trilobite.

Etymology

Wimpod is a portmanteau of "wimp" (someone weak or cowardly) and "isopod."

Kosokumushi is a portmanteau of 小 (ko, small), 足 (soku, foot), and 虫 (mushi, bug).
