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.

Pokédex entries
- Pokémon Ruby
- To make prey faint, Vibrava generates ultrasonic waves by vigorously making its two wings vibrate. This Pokémon's ultrasonic waves are so powerful, they can bring on headaches in people.
- Pokémon Sapphire
- Vibrava's wings have not yet completed the process of growing. Rather than flying long distances, they are more useful for generating ultrasonic waves by vibrating.
- Pokémon Emerald
- It looses ultrasonic waves by rubbing its wings together. Since a Vibrava's wings are still in the process of growing, it can only fly short distances.
- Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen
- It generates ultrasonic waves by violently flapping its wings. After making its prey faint, it melts the prey with acid.

Trivia
Vibrava is also a verb at Brazilian Portuguese, meaning "vibrated".
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. For the French name, the last syllable is replaced with ninf, which 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.
