Petilil (Japanese: チュリネ Churine) is a Grass-type Pokémon introduced in Generation V.

It evolves into Lilligant when exposed to a Sun Stone.

Biology

Petilil is a plantlike Pokémon that resembles a plant bulb, such as an onion. It is primarily light green. Its head is tipped with three oblong leaves that are very bitter, which can cause dizziness. However, these leaves possess revitalizing effects such as restoring a person's vigor. The leaves can also be boiled down into a liquid and used as bug repellent. The leaves' color can also determine how healthy a Petilil is. Its crescent-shaped white face, seemingly lacking of a nose or mouth, has brown eyes shaped like elongated ovals. A green "bib" is present on its neck, and its lower body consists of five stubs, two of which act as arms, and two more act as legs.

Petilil is very popular with the elderly due to its vigor-restoring leaves. Petilil tends to appear near sources of clean waters. It lives in areas with soil abundant in moisture and nutrients. The homes can be either well-tended fields or flowerbeds. However, they will leave if the environment turns bad. This Pokémon is a female-only species with no male counterpart.

Other appearances

Super Smash Bros. for Nintendo 3DS/Wii U

Petilil appears the 3DS version as an enemy in Smash Run. It will spray Sleep Powder, putting any players in front of it to sleep.

Trophy information

The leaves on this Grass-type Pokémon's head taste bitter, but eating them is known to refresh a tired body. In Smash Run, it'll disperse purple Sleep Powder over a wide area when it gets close to you. It's easy to get caught off guard by the attack if you're busy fighting other enemies, so if you see a Petilil, take it out as fast as you can.
