Upon evolution, Vibrava gains the ability of limited flight. However, its wings are not fully mature, and are ineffective at flying any significant distance. Although they are not this Pokémon's primary method of locomotion, they are their primary method of prey capture. By vibrating its wings rapidly, it produces ultrasonic waves. These waves are quite powerful, and can cause their prey to faint. Fortunately, these waves usually do not do more damage than a headache in humans. | Upon evolution, Vibrava gains the ability of limited flight.

Vibrava (Japanese: ビブラーバ Vibrava) is a Ground/Dragon-type Pokémon.
Biology
Physiology
Vibrava is a dragonfly-like Pokémon. It has a skinny, yellow body, and green, rhombus-shaped wings along with two similar-looking shapes at the end of its tail. Vibrava has green eyes and skinny black legs.
Gender differences
None.
Special abilities
Vibrava is capable of emitting and manipulating sound waves from its wings. This ability has been tuned to the point where this Pokémon is able to induce headaches in humans. It also has the ability Levitate. This allows Vibrava to dodge Template:Type2 attacks such as Earthquake and Magnitude. Oddly enough, its physical-attacking power is actually weaker than Trapinch's.
As a Template:Type2 Pokémon, Vibrava can learn Draco Meteor.
Behavior
Upon evolution, Vibrava gains the ability of limited flight. However, its wings are not fully mature, and are ineffective at flying any significant distance. Although they are not this Pokémon's primary method of locomotion, they are their primary method of prey capture. By vibrating its wings rapidly, it produces ultrasonic waves. These waves are quite powerful, and can cause their prey to faint. Fortunately, these waves usually do not do more damage than a headache in humans.
Habitat
Vibrava live in deserts.
Diet
- Main article: Pokémon food
Vibrava hunts by vibrating its wings at high frequency. Once its prey has fainted, it injects it with potent venom.
In the anime
Vibrava first appeared in Beg, Burrow and Steal. Dozens of Trapinch were seen evolving into them at an underground lake. Team Rocket made a failed attempt to steal the Antlion Pokémon despite the fact the idea Meowth had of using their previous forms as nut-crackers was now foiled. The Vibrava helped Ash, May, Max, Brock, Hal and Elisa out of the underground labyrinth.
A coordinator named Brianna used a Vibrava in the battle round of the Pokémon Contest in Spontaneous Combusken. Vibrava were also used by random coordinators in Hi Ho Silver Wind and Harley Rides Again.

Trivia
- Vibrava is the only Pokémon whose attack stat is weaker than the Pokémon it evolves from, Trapinch.
- Vibrava, and its evolution, Flygon, are the only non-legendary Pokémon that are not Template:Type2 and can learn Fly, with the exception of Smeargle.
Origin
Vibrava is based on the adult stage of an antlion.
Name origin
Vibrava's name is probably based on the word vibrate, to shake, and larva.
In other languages
- German: Vibrava
- French: Vibraninf - The last syllable, ninf, could be a corruption of nymph. A nymph for Vibrava's case means an immature stage for a species of "true bug" as Vibrava isn't fully grown yet.
- Korean: 비브라바 Vibrava
