It is said to be a relative of the [[Paradox Pokémon]] {{p|Brute Bonnet}}<ref>[[Professor Sada|AI Sada]]{{sup/9|S}}/[[Professor Turo|AI Turo]]{{sup/9|V}}: ''"Through analysis of its genetic makeup, as well as its behavioral patterns...I came to realize that what I had discovered was in fact an ancient{{sup/9|S}}/futuristic{{sup/9|V}} form of {{p|Cyclizar}}, the Pokémon commonly ridden in this region."''

==Biology==
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Amoonguss is a {{wp|mushroom}}-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. It has a huge, gray, stem-like body; fierce-looking eyes; a tiny mouth with large pink lips; and two arms. It has large caps on its head and arms that resemble {{i|Poké Ball}}s. The cap on its head has a few warts.
Amoonguss is a mushroom-like Pokémon. It has a large Poké Ball designed cap in a lighter coloration with warts. It also has a huge grayish, stem-liked body, fierce looking eyes and a large pink nose similar to Foongus. Amoonguss wields two Poké Ball-like shields.


====Gender differences====
Amoonguss is a carnivore, and uses the Poké Ball-like patterns on its arms to lure in prey, although it doesn't work too well in most cases. It also blows poisonous spores at its opponents. These spores can grow into mushrooms wherever they land if they are not washed off quickly. Amoonguss rarely moves, preferring to stand near any dropped Poké Balls. Amoonguss prefers damp places, and can be found mainly in long grass with only their mushroom cap head protruding from it, generally close to water. {{p|Brute Bonnet}} bears a resemblance to Amoonguss.
None.


===Special abilities===
===Evolution===
Amoonguss evolves from {{p|Foongus}}.


===Behavior===
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Amoonguss, along with its pre-evolution, is similar to {{p|Voltorb}} and {{p|Electrode}} in that it resembles a [[Poké Ball]].
* Amoonguss, along with its pre-evolved form, is similar to {{p|Voltorb}} and {{p|Electrode}} in that it resembles a {{i|Poké Ball}}.
** However, unlike Voltorb and Electrode, it only has a Poké Ball design on it, instead of being in the shape of one.
** Amoonguss's {{Shiny}} form's coloration is reminiscent of a [[Master Ball]]. It shares this trait with its pre-evolved form.
** Likewise, it features the whole design, complete with the circle resembling the button in the middle (contrary to Voltorb's evolution line having just the shape and general colors, and according to the Pokédex, being transformed Poké Balls themselves).
* Amoonguss and its pre-evolved form share their species name with {{p|Paras}}, {{p|Parasect}}, {{p|Shroomish}}, and {{p|Breloom}}. They are all known as the Mushroom Pokémon.
** Amoonguss's {{Shiny}} form's coloration is reminiscent of that of the [[Master Ball]]. It shares this trait with {{p|Foongus|its pre-evolved form}}.
** All six Pokémon also share a common [[move]], {{m|Spore}}, and [[Ability]], {{a|Effect Spore}}.
* Amoonguss and its pre-evolved form, {{p|Foongus}}, share their species name with {{p|Paras}}, {{p|Parasect}}, {{p|Shroomish}}, and {{p|Breloom}}. They are all known as Mushroom Pokémon.
** In [[Pokémon GO]], they all give more [[Stardust (GO)|Stardust]] than most other Pokémon upon capture.
* Amoonguss has the highest {{stat|HP}} among all {{type|Grass}} and {{type|Poison}} Pokémon.
* According to [[Ken Sugimori]], {{p|Foongus}}, Amoonguss, {{p|Ferroseed}}, and {{p|Ferrothorn}} were all designed by the same designer.<ref name=ND205>''Nintendo Dream'' Vol. 205, May 2011 ([https://web.archive.org/web/20110402003550/http://shellspider.blog101.fc2.com/blog-entry-562.html Shellspider's blog (Japanese)], [http://lavacutcontent.com/ken-sugimori-nintendo-dream/ Translation by Dr. Lava])</ref>
* Amoonguss is the only known Pokémon with a base stat total of 464.


===Origin===
===Origin===
It appears to be based on ''{{wp|Amanita muscaria}}'' or mushrooms of the ''{{wp|Agaricus}}'' genus, due to it being {{type|Poison}}. Its cap and the shield-like arms were designed to look like the front of a Poké Ball.
Amoonguss may draw inspiration from ''{{wp|Amanita muscaria}}'' or mushrooms of the ''{{wp|Agaricus}}'' genus. Like {{p|Voltorb}} and its {{p|Electrode|evolved form}}, the idea of them being mistaken for the standard Item Balls is similar to a {{wp|Mimic (Dungeons & Dragons)|mimic}}, a monster archetype commonly found in RPGs.
 
====Name origin====
====Name origin====
Amoonguss may be a combination of ''{{wp|amanita}}'' (a genus of mushroom) and ''fungus'' or ''humongous'' (huge). Together with {{p|Foongus|its evolution}}, their names are a corruption of the phrase, "Fungus among us."
Amoonguss may be a combination of ''{{wp|amanita}}'' (a genus of mushroom) and ''fungus'' or ''humongous'' (huge). Together with {{p|Foongus|its pre-evolution}}, their names are a corruption of the phrase, "Fungus among us." This is confirmed by Ali the [[Student (Trainer class)|Student]] in [[North Province (Area Two)]] in [[Pokémon Scarlet and Violet]].


Morobareru is a combination of もろ ''moro'' (on both sides, referring to the mushrooms on both hands) and ばれる ''bareru'' (slang for "to be found out" or "to come out").
Morobareru is a combination of もろに ''moro ni'' (completely) and ばれる ''bareru'' (slang for "[for a secret] to be exposed"), referring to how it no longer convincingly looks like a {{i|Poké Ball}}.<ref name=ND205/>

Amoonguss (Japanese: モロバレル Morobareru) is a dual-type Grass/Poison Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves from Foongus starting at level 39.

It is said to be a relative of the Paradox Pokémon Brute Bonnet[1] or a version of it[2] from a different timeline.

Biology

Amoonguss is a mushroom-like Pokémon. It has a huge, gray, stem-like body; fierce-looking eyes; a tiny mouth with large pink lips; and two arms. It has large caps on its head and arms that resemble Poké Balls. The cap on its head has a few warts.

Amoonguss is a carnivore, and uses the Poké Ball-like patterns on its arms to lure in prey, although it doesn't work too well in most cases. It also blows poisonous spores at its opponents. These spores can grow into mushrooms wherever they land if they are not washed off quickly. Amoonguss rarely moves, preferring to stand near any dropped Poké Balls. Amoonguss prefers damp places, and can be found mainly in long grass with only their mushroom cap head protruding from it, generally close to water. Brute Bonnet bears a resemblance to Amoonguss.

Evolution

Amoonguss evolves from Foongus.

Trivia

Origin

Amoonguss may draw inspiration from Amanita muscaria or mushrooms of the Agaricus genus. Like Voltorb and its evolved form, the idea of them being mistaken for the standard Item Balls is similar to a mimic, a monster archetype commonly found in RPGs.

Name origin

Amoonguss may be a combination of amanita (a genus of mushroom) and fungus or humongous (huge). Together with its pre-evolution, their names are a corruption of the phrase, "Fungus among us." This is confirmed by Ali the Student in North Province (Area Two) in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet.

Morobareru is a combination of もろに moro ni (completely) and ばれる bareru (slang for "[for a secret] to be exposed"), referring to how it no longer convincingly looks like a Poké Ball.[3]
