Pokédex entries

Pokémon Red and Blue

Almost incapable of moving, this Pokémon can only harden its shell to protect itself from predators.

Pokémon Yellow

Able to move only slightly. When endangered, it may stick out its stinger and poison its enemy.

Pokémon Stadium

Because it is virtually motionless, it may appear dead. Inside, however, a new body is being made.

Pokémon Gold

Although it is a cocoon, it can move a little. It can extend its poison barb if it is attacked

Pokémon Silver

From this form, it will grow into an adult. As its body becomes softer, the external shell hardens.

Pokémon Crystal

Nearly incapable of movement, it leans against stout trees while waiting for its evolution.

Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire

Kakuna remains virtually immobile as it clings to a tree. However, on the inside, it is extremely busy as it prepares for its coming evolution. This is evident from how hot the shell becomes to the touch.

Pokémon FireRed

This Pokémon is a temporary stage while making its body. It's almost completely unable to move on its own.

Pokémon LeafGreen

Almost incapable of moving, this POKéMON can only harden its shell to protect itself when it is in danger.

Pokémon Emerald

It remains virtually immobile while it clings to a tree. However, on the inside, it busily prepares for evolution. This is evident from how hot its shell becomes.

Name origin

Its name is just a corruption of the word cocoon, and in the case of its Japanese name, it is the word itself.

Its design appears to be based upon a chrysalis.

"Kokoon" was the proto-type name for Kakuna.
