'''Silcoon''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カラサリス''' ''Karasalis'') is a {{type|Bug}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation III]].


It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Wurmple}} depending on its [[personality value]], starting at [[level]] 7, and it evolves into {{p|Beautifly}} starting at level 10.
It [[evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Wurmple}} with a corresponding hidden [[personality value#Wurmple's evolution|personality value]] starting at [[level]] 7, and evolves into {{p|Beautifly}} starting at level 10. It is the parallel of {{p|Cascoon}}, Wurmple's other evolution.


==Biology==
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Silcoon is a cocoon-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that uses silk to attach itself to tree branches. It is almost completely covered in white silk with only two small holes. A pair of red eyes can be seen through the holes, but they are partially hidden by a rough fringe of silk. The silk forms a hard cocoon that it can use to repel enemy attacks. Dew and rainwater collect on the silk, which provides Silcoon with nourishment.
Silcoon is a cocoon-like Pokémon with limbs which it uses to attach itself to tree branches. There is a small hole in its cocoon that it can see through with its two red eyes with a fringe over each eye. It is very similar to {{p|Cascoon}}.


====Gender differences====
Silcoon lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|forests}}, where it conserves energy by moving as little as possible. This energy, which it had gathered as a {{p|Wurmple}}, serves as fuel for its further evolution. Due to its cocoon, Silcoon cannot extend its limbs and can only move really slowly. However, its eyes allow it to be on the lookout for danger.
None.


===Special abilities===
===Evolution===
Silcoon has a hard cocoon that can repel enemy attacks.
Silcoon evolves from {{p|Wurmple}} and evolves into {{p|Beautifly}}.


===Behavior===
(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to [[#Evolution data|Game data&rarr;Evolution data]].)
Silcoon, being merely a cocoon, cannot do much more than quietly hang from a tree branch using {{m|String Shot}}, waiting for the right conditions for [[evolution]]. It {{m|harden}}s frequently.

Silcoon nourishes itself by drinking dew and rainwater that gets collected on its silk. It also uses the energy it stored as a Wurmple to survive. It's also been found on [[Honey|Honey trees]]. It is unknown if it is eating the honey or if it evolved on the tree while it was eating it as a Wurmple.

In ''[[AG024|A Corphish out of Water]]'', May's Wurmple evolved into a Silcoon alongside Jessie's Wurmple which evolved into a {{p|Cascoon}}. Both promptly evolved into their current state in ''[[AG028|Seeing is Believing]]'', where Silcoon evolved into May's Beautifly and Cascoon evolved into [[Jessie's Dustox]].

==Trivia==
==Trivia==
* Silcoon shares the same [[species]] name with {{p|Metapod}}, {{p|Kakuna}}, and {{p|Cascoon}}. They are all known as Cocoon Pokémon.
* Silcoon shares its {{pkmn|category}} with {{p|Metapod}}, {{p|Kakuna}}, and {{p|Cascoon}}. They are all known as the Cocoon Pokémon.
** Silcoon is tied with them as the weakest evolved Pokémon in the games, by average base stats.
** They also share the same [[Base stats|base stat]] total, learnset, Ability, and EV yield.
* Cascoon and Silcoon have the exact same base stats.
*** This ties them as the evolved Pokémon with the lowest base stat total.
* Silcoon and Cascoon have exactly the same type, base stats, moveset, and shape, making them nearly identical.
* Silcoon, along with Cascoon, can be seen without the limb protrusions on its body in the {{pkmn|anime}}, all [[core series]] {{pkmn|games}} from {{pkmn|X and Y}} onward, and occasionally in {{2v2|HeartGold|SoulSilver}}.
** However, [[James]]'s Pokémon trivia cards showed that Silcoon and Cascoon indeed have those limbs.

Silcoon (Japanese: カラサリス Karasalis) is a Bug-type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.

It evolves from Wurmple with a corresponding hidden personality value starting at level 7, and evolves into Beautifly starting at level 10. It is the parallel of Cascoon, Wurmple's other evolution.

Biology

Silcoon is a cocoon-like Pokémon that uses silk to attach itself to tree branches. It is almost completely covered in white silk with only two small holes. A pair of red eyes can be seen through the holes, but they are partially hidden by a rough fringe of silk. The silk forms a hard cocoon that it can use to repel enemy attacks. Dew and rainwater collect on the silk, which provides Silcoon with nourishment.

Silcoon lives in forests, where it conserves energy by moving as little as possible. This energy, which it had gathered as a Wurmple, serves as fuel for its further evolution. Due to its cocoon, Silcoon cannot extend its limbs and can only move really slowly. However, its eyes allow it to be on the lookout for danger.

Evolution

Silcoon evolves from Wurmple and evolves into Beautifly.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's evolution in the games, refer to Game data→Evolution data.)

Trivia

  • Silcoon shares its category with Metapod, Kakuna, and Cascoon. They are all known as the Cocoon Pokémon.
    • They also share the same base stat total, learnset, Ability, and EV yield.
      • This ties them as the evolved Pokémon with the lowest base stat total.
  • Silcoon and Cascoon have exactly the same type, base stats, moveset, and shape, making them nearly identical.
  • Silcoon, along with Cascoon, can be seen without the limb protrusions on its body in the anime, all core series games from X and Y onward, and occasionally in HeartGold and SoulSilver.
    • However, James's Pokémon trivia cards showed that Silcoon and Cascoon indeed have those limbs.

Origin

Silcoon seems to be based on a silkworm cocoon due to its white color.

Name origin

Silcoon may be a combination of silk and cocoon.

Karasalis may be a combination of 殻 kara (shell) and chrysalis.
