From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Trevenant (Japanese: オーロット Ohrot) is a dual-type Ghost/Grass Pokémon.
It evolves from Phantump when traded.
Biology
Trevenant is a slender brown tree that stands on six roots bent like spider legs. It has two zigzag indentations wrapped around its body from missing bark. There are two large, crooked horn-like gnarls on either side of its head, and another smaller gnarl on its forehead, with a tuft of green leaves in the middle and a large, menacing dark-red eye below them. Its two arms are held horizontally level, thin upper arms and thick forearms, with missing rings of bark at the elbow and below the shoulder; a black shadow connects them. Each upper arm has a single small spike or leaf. The forearms have a small branch immediately before a large cuff of green foliage at the wrist, connected to hands with three wooden pincer spikes for fingers.
Trevenant is known for being kind toward the other Pokémon residing within its lush leaves, despite its terrifying power. It uses its roots as a nervous system, which allows Trevenant to control trees at will. It will trap people who bring harm to the forest, so they can never leave.
In the anime
Major appearances
Trevenant debuted in Forging Forest Friendships!, where it kidnapped Ash. It wasn't malicious, though: it only wanted help rescuing its friends Bonsly and Sudowoodo, who had been trapped by Team Rocket.

Trivia
Origin
Trevenant is probably based on a kodama, the spirits of trees that sometimes inhabit old aged trees. Its stripe-like indentation on its body is very similar to shimenawa, used to mark spiritual habitation, who are often seen tied around kodama. It is also similar to other types of tree and nature spirits and deities, such as dryads. Trevenant's fierce protection of forests may be a reference to hamadryad, or could perhaps be a nod to the concept of protected sacred groves. Its single eye may possibly be a reference to cyclopes or the mountain dwelling yamawarawa. Its general body shape may have been based on the shape of the kanji 木, meaning wood or tree.
Name origin
Trevenant is a combination of tree (or possibly treant) and revenant.
Ohrot may be a combination of 大 ō (big) and ロット rot (as in a root rot).
