From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Goomy (Japanese: ヌメラ Numera) is a Dragon-type Pokémon.
It evolves into Sliggoo starting at level 40, which evolves into Goodra starting at level 50 when leveled up during rain in the overworld.
Biology
Goomy looks like a light purple, vaguely slug-like pile of goo. The top half of its body is a lighter purple than its bottom half, and the two halves are separated by a squiggly, dark purple outline decorated with five green dots. It has beady eyes, and it has two rows of two horn-like structures on top of its head.
Goomy is widely considered the weakest Dragon-type Pokémon. It hides in damp and shady places, such as swamps, to prevent its slimy body from drying out.

Major appearances

Trivia
- Goomy is the lightest Dragon-type Pokémon.
- A sprite for Goomy can be seen in the image shown at the top of the Pokémon Shuffle community on Miiverse, but Goomy is not currently programmed into the game. This can be shown by setting the Pokémon list's search function to show all Pokémon, sorting by name and with Skill, Type and Mega Stone set to no preference. Even Pokémon that have not been seen and can only be caught in a special stage are shown, meaning that it not being programmed into the game is the only possibility left. Groudon and Kyogre are also like this.
Origin
Goomy greatly resembles the prehistoric wiwaxia. Goomy seems to be based on soft bodied gastropods, such as slugs and nudibranch; its typing and eventual dragon design in evolution may be a reference to the "blue dragon" sea slug. It may also be based upon the concept of living slime in popular culture.
Name origin
Goomy may be a combination of goo and gummy or slimy.
Numera is derived from 滑る numeru (to be slippery) and ぬらぬら nuranura (onomatopoetic word for slimy).
