Pokémon Gold / Pokémon LeafGreen

The bloom on top of its head open and closes as the temperature fluctuates up and down.

Pokémon Silver / Pokémon FireRed

It spreads its petals to absorb sunlight. It also floats in the air to get closer to the sun.

Pokémon Crystal

As soon as it rains, it closes its flower and hides in the shade of a tree to avoid getting wet.

Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire

Skiploom's flower blossoms when the temperature rises above 64 degrees F. How much the flower opens depends on the temperature. For that reason, this Pokémon is sometimes used as a thermometer.

Pokémon Emerald

It blossoms when the temperature rises above 64 degrees F. Because its flower's blooming changes with the temperature, it is sometimes used as a thermometer.

Trivia

Origin

Skiploom appears to be based on a bulb and a flower.

Name origin

Skiploom's name is a combination of skip and bloom. It could also be a play on a song containing the verse, "loo, loo, skip to my loo", with an "m" added to the end of "loo", implying "bloom", reffering to the flower on top of Skiploom's head. Its Japanese name is based on 蒲公英 tanpopo, dandelion.
