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 Vileplumes and Bellossoms were feuding in that area.

Tammy from I Politoed Ya So had some Bellossom in her cheerleading squad.

In the manga

In the Pokémon Special manga

As early as Volume 12, Erika owns a group of Bellossom who presumably help her in flower arrangement.

In the TCG

Other appearances

Super Smash Bros. Melee

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 avalible 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.

Trivia

  • Bellossom weighs less than Gloom, and is shorter than Gloom as well.
  • Early artwork of Bellossom, made prior to the release of Pokémon Gold and Silver, shows this Pokémon with a body that is the same color as its evolutionary relatives.

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. Bellossom's German name is a combination of blume meaning flower and Bella, possibly to reflect its fondness of dancing. The French name seems to be a corruption of pretty flower.
