Bellossom (Japanese: キレイハナ Kireihana) is a Template:Type2 Pokémon. It evolves from Gloom.
Biology
Physiology
Bellossom is quite different physically from the rest of its evolutionary family. It has two bright red flowers on its head and green and yellow leaves that resemble a skirt. It all adds to an appearance of a hula dancer. It may or may not possess feet (a trait shared by Jynx).
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Behavior
Habitat
Bellossom live in grassy plains, and can also be found in tropical areas such as jungles and swamps, where the ground is rich in nutrients.
Diet
- Main article: Pokémon food
In the anime
Bellossom first appeared in Pikachu's Rescue Adventure.
Bellossom's first major appearance was in Flower Power. A girl named Bailey had a pair that she wanted to be able to a dance, but one of them was having trouble with the somersault that the dance required.
A Bellossom was also used in a Grass-typed battle in The Grass Route.
Bellossom was in a garden that Ash's Bayleef ran off to in Turning Over a New Bayleef.
In Whichever Way the Wind Blows, there was a meadow in which Gloom evolved by collecting sediments of either Leaf Stones or Sun Stones that blew in the wind. The Vileplume and Bellossom were feuding in that area.
Tammy from I Politoed Ya So had some Bellossom in her cheerleading squad.
In the manga
Pokémon Special
As early as Template:PSV, Erika owns a group of Bellossom who presumably help her in flower arrangement.
In the TCG
- Main article: Bellossom (TCG)
Other appearances
When released from a Poké Ball, Bellossom will use its Sleep Powder to put any nearby opponents into a deep sleep. As Bellossom stays on-screen for longer than most Pokémon, this gives the thrower time to power up a smash move. It is also available as a trophy.
Trophy information
From time to time, these beautiful flower Pokémon will gather in numbers and perform an odd sort of dance to call out the sun. While in the midst of this strange exhibition, their petals brush together to create a peaceful and soothing melody. A Gloom will only evolve into a Bellossom if it's exposed to a Sun Stone.

Sprites
Trivia
- Bellossom weighs less than Gloom, and is shorter than Gloom as well.
- Early artwork of Bellossom, made prior to the release of Gold and Silver, shows this Pokémon with a body that is the same color as its Template:Shiny2 form, though that shiny form would not come until Generation III.
- Bellossom shares the same species name with Vileplume and Bellsprout. They are all known as Flower Pokémon.
- Bellossom's sprites changed dramatically from Generation II to Generation III. Early sprites showed it having pink and red leaves instead of green in the normal and shiny sprites and pink and red flowers instead of red and pink.
Origin
Bellossom may be based on a hula dancer.
Name origin
Bellossom's name is a combination of bell, referring to the fact that the petals of its skirt make ringing noises, and blossom. Its Japanese name is a combination of 奇麗 kirei, pretty, and 花 hana, flower.
In other languages
- German: Blubella - Bellossom's German name is a combination of blume meaning flower and Bella, possibly to reflect its fondness of dancing. It also might come from Bluebell.
- French: Joliflor - The French name seems to be a corruption of pretty flower.
- Korean: 아르코 Areuko
