Parasect (Japanese: パラセクト Parasect) is a dual-type Bug/Grass Pokémon.
It evolves from Paras starting at level 24.
Biology
Parasect is an orange, insectoid Pokémon that has been completely overtaken by the parasitic mushroom on its back. It has a small head with pure white eyes and a segmented body that is mostly hidden by the mushroom. It has three pairs of legs, with the foremost pair forming large pincers. The fungus growing on its back has a large red cap with yellow spots throughout.
The insect has been drained of nutrients and is now under the control of the fully-grown tochukaso. Parasect can often be found in caves, and can also thrive in dank forests with a suitable amount of humidity for growing fungi. Swarms of this Pokémon have been known to infest trees. The swarm will drain the tree of nutrients until it dies, and will then move on to a new tree.
In the anime
Major appearances
Parasect first featured in The Problem with Paras under the ownership of Cassandra as a very weak Paras. Cassandra needed it to evolve into a Parasect so she can use the giant mushroom to aid in her medical research. After it battled with Ash's Pokémon (albeit, all of them except his disobedient Charmeleon not trying at all), and a battle with Team Rocket, Paras evolved.
Several Parasect appeared in For Ho-Oh the Bells Toll!, where they protected the Tin Tower after Team Rocket stole the crystal bells on the top floor.
In Hocus Pokémon, Lily needed Stun Spore from a Parasect to complete a spell.
Officer Jenny uses a Parasect in Gulpin it Down.

A Parasect appeared in Princess vs. Princess competing in the Queen of the Princess Festival contest.
Multiple Parasect were among the Pokémon seen at Professor Oak's Laboratory in Showdown at the Po-ké Corral.

In the manga
In the Pokémon Adventures manga
Parasect debuts in Long Live the Nidoking! where it is scene as one of the Pokémon at Fuschia City's Safari Zone and in the next round A Hollow Victreebel where multiple Parasect were captured by red off-screen.
In the Gold, Silver & Crystal arc of Pokémon Adventures, Crystal uses a Parasect nicknamed Parasee which it first appeared in Slugging It Out With Slugma, extensively in her Pokémon capturing, using its Spore attack to put targets to sleep. Her Parasect is seen to be capable of increasing the radius of its Spore attack to at least 3 kilometers. In Lively Larvitar, the origin of Crystal's Parasect is revealed: it, along with Crystal's Natu, Hitmonchan, and Cubone, were wild Pokémon living in Mt. Mortar and had fought with a local Arcanine that had gone berserk from a severe eye injury. Parasect was able to create medicinal spores to help Arcanine heal and Crystal recover from her fractured arms. In Lugia and Ho-Oh on the Loose (Part 1), Crystal reveals yet another ability of Parasect: it is able to use the powder attacks it possesses to combine into a wider range of spores, including one for corroding metals.
Another Parasect appeared in The Last Battle XIII as one of the Pokémon sent to help the fight in Ilex Forest.
In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga
Green's Parasect debuted in The Big Battle In The Viridian Forest!!.

Trivia
- Parasect's Pokédex entry for Pokémon Stadium connects the Pokémon world with the real world, noting that its spores are sometimes used as medicine in China.
- Paras and Parasect are the only Pokémon in the game to take more than 4 times as much damage from any one type of attack under normal battle conditions: a Paras or Parasect with the Ability Dry Skin takes 5× damage from Fire-type attacks.
- In Generation I, Poison-type attacks are super effective against Bug-type Pokémon, making Parasect and Paras the only Pokémon to have ever had three 4× weaknesses.
- No other Pokémon has the same Egg Group combination as Parasect and its pre-evolution.
- Paras and Parasect share their species name with Shroomish, Breloom, Foongus and Amoonguss. They are all known as the Mushroom Pokémon.
Origin
The fungus on Parasect is identified as tochukaso, an endoparasitoid that replaces the host tissue and can affect the behavior of its insect host. The base insect is a deformed version of what is probably a cicada nymph, the parasitic fungi having caused a form of neoteny.
Name origin
Parasect may be a combination of parasite (referring to the tochukaso mushroom) and insect or sect (Latin for cut).
