Trivia
- Out of all Pokémon that evolve by a set level, Larvesta evolves later than any other unevolved Pokémon, at level 59.
- No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Larvesta and its evolution.
- Larvesta and its evolution are also the only Pokémon with a double weakness to the Rock type that are not Flying types.
- This makes them the Pokémon vulnerable to the most damage from entry hazards, able to be affected by both Stealth Rock (from which they take maximum damage) and Spikes.
- Larvesta and its evolution are also the only Pokémon with a double weakness to the Rock type that are not Flying types.
- Larvesta and its evolution are the only Pokémon that are neither Legendary nor Mythical that learn a move upon reaching level 100.
Origin
Larvesta may be based on a moth — likely an Atlas moth larva — and the Tower of the Sun, a famed Japanese monument. The way its red growths are shaped and positioned on its circular body may be a reference to the sun or to the Daimonji. It may also be based on a torch or cigarette.
Name origin
Larvesta may be a combination of larva and Vesta (Roman goddess of the hearth and home, symbolised and represented by an eternally-burning fire located in her temple). It may also involve lava.
Merlarva may be a combination of めらめら meramera (onomatopoeia for flaring) and larva.
