Cheryl's Mothim

Is it okay if I make a Cheryl's Mothim page? --Theryguy512 13:03, 20 October 2007 (UTC)

Trivia

It says that Mothim is the one of the only pokémon that is related to another with form differences. Shouldn't it have a sub-header that says it is the only one that is the evolved form of a pokémon with form differences? - unsigned comment from Joshsauce (talkcontribs)

Design basis related trivia mistake.

The Trivia section states, that of the four moth-based Pokémon, it is the only one which is part Flying-type. Then it mentions that Masquerain could be also based on a moth. However, it is clear that Masquerain at least draws inspiration from moths, as it's japanese Name is アメモース (Amemoth), making this section pointless.
