Vileplume (Japanese: ラフレシア Ruffresia) is a dual-type Grass/Poison Pokémon.

It evolves from Gloom when exposed to a Leaf Stone. It is one of Oddish's final forms, the other being Bellossom.

Biology

Vileplume is a blue, bipedal Pokémon with rudimentary hands and feet. It has beady red eyes and a massive red flower growing from its head. Vileplume's flower is said to have the largest petals in the world, and is almost too heavy for the Pokémon itself to support. The rounded petals of the flower are red and covered with white spots. The female Vileplume has fewer, but larger, spots on its petals. It can shake, flap, or burst its petals into bloom with a bang in order to release clouds of pollen. This pollen is highly allergenic to humans and toxic to other Pokémon; Vileplume uses it to paralyze its prey. It can also utilize these petals in its former signature move, Petal Dance. Vileplume lives in grassy plains, where it is often mistaken for native flowers.

Trivia

Origin

Bulbanews
Bulbanews has an article related to this subject:

Vileplume, like Gloom, is based on the Rafflesia arnoldii, a foul-smelling flower known as the world's largest single flower. This Pokémon more strongly resembles the flower than Gloom, which may represent the budding stage of the Rafflesia. Vileplume's flower also looks alike several other species of Rafflesia, notably cantleyi, keithii, pricei, manillana and speciosa, of which the petal shape is a closest match. Female Vileplume may be based on Rafflesia hasseltii, as its petals have distinctively larger blotches than other species of Rafflesia.

Name origin

Vileplume is a combination of vile and plume or plumose (possessing filaments or branches that give a feathery look).

Ruffresia is a corruption of Rafflesia.
