Beautifly (Japanese: アゲハント Agehunt) is a dual-type Bug/Flying Pokémon.

It evolves from Silcoon starting at level 10. It is one of Wurmple's final forms.

Biology

Physiology

Beautifly is a mostly black-colored butterfly-like Pokémon. Beautifly has a long, curled black proboscis, large blue eyes and black antennae extending out of its head. Beautifly’s face, underside, and four stubby limbs are gray in coloration. Beautifly’s wings are large and colorful, the largest markings being yellow, with accentuations of red and blue. The rim of the wing also has a line of yellow on the edge, and the lower pair of wings has a long, round-tipped extension.

Gender differences

The red spots on the top of a female's wings are smaller than those on a male's wings.

Special abilities

Beautifly are capable of sapping energy with Absorb, Mega Drain, and Giga Drain, restoring health with Morning Sun, and stunning their opponents with Stun Spore. It can also jab its long, thin mouth at foes when attacking, or when perturbed collecting pollen.
