Vanillite (Japanese: バニプッチ Vanipeti) is an Ice-type Pokémon.

It evolves into Vanillish at level 35, which evolves into Vanilluxe at level 47.

Biology

Physiology

A "bald" Vanillite with a melted snow covering

Vanillite heads are covered with something resembling a swirled scoop of vanilla ice cream. Beneath this lies its actual head, which is made of the same icy material as its body. This is also where the face is located. Their eyes have swirled, light blue markings, and dark bluish pupils. They have a dark-bluish mouth, a small body adorned with specks of ice, and stubby limbs. The snow on a Vanillite's head can melt with heat or repeated touching, leaving it with a "bald" appearance of simply an ice creature. They become embarrassed if seen in this state.

Gender differences

None.

Behavior
