It evolves from Flabébé starting at level 19 and evolves into Florges when exposed to a Shiny Stone. Floette also has five separate forms, each named for the color of its flower: Red Flower, Yellow Flower, Orange Flower, Blue Flower, and White Flower.
There is also a sixth, unique form of Floette named Eternal Flower, which first appeared in Pokémon X and Y but was not legitimately obtainable until Pokémon Legends: Z-A. Unlike its regular counterpart, it is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, but can Mega Evolve into Mega Floette using the Floettite. Mega Floette was introduced in Pokémon Legends: Z-A.
Floette is a small, fairy-like Pokémon. Its head, upper torso, arms, and mitten-like hands are white, and its lower body is green, ending in a spade-shaped tail. It has beady eyes, each with a leaf-like, green extension sprouting from the top, resembling a long eyelash. Its ears are long, slightly droopy, and heart-shaped at the end, with a yellow ring around each base. Two thin, black lines run across the top of its head. Floette is a female-only species with no male counterpart.
Notably, Floette floats around while holding a flower like a parasol. The flower has a long, light green peduncle with a single leaf, three stamens with rounded, yellow anthers, and five rounded petals, which can be red, yellow, orange, blue, or white, depending on the color of the flower it held as a Flabébé.[1] Floette can be often found near flowerbeds, tending for the flowers that begun wilting, restoring the health of withered ones, and celebrating new blossomings. It is said to mercilessly attack and never forgive anyone who messes up a flower bed.
Floette cannot use moves by its own; instead, it first needs to synchronize with the flower it holds through wavelengths of visible light, exchanging powers with the flower in order to draw out the power it hides. Thanks to this, it can draw forth the latent capabilities of Grass-type Pokémon in addition to becoming able to use Grass-type moves itself. Floette can more effectively synchronize with a flower if its color matches the one produced by the wavelength it uses, with White Flower Floette being said to easily sync with differently-colored flowers. Additionally, the more gorgeous the flower, the more power that it contains for Floette to use.
There is a sixth, unique form of Floette: Eternal Flower.
This Floette holds a completely different flower named the Eternal Flower, which is said to no longer bloom anywhere in the world, having gone extinct in ancient times. The Eternal Flower has three black petals with a red and black pattern on the top, three red sepals, a red, leafless stem, and a black, conical pistil. Differing from regular Floette, it has a blue lower body and eyelashes and red rings surrounding the bases of its ears.
Eternal Flower Floette is over 3,000 years old as a result of being resurrected and inadvertently granted eternal life by AZ's device, which would soon become the ultimate weapon; possibly due to this, it is unable to evolve.[2] The Eternal Flower it holds is said to harbor terrifying power and seems to have been the inspiration for the appearance of the ultimate weapon. Eternal Flower Floette is also intimately related to Ange.
Eternal Flower Floette can Mega Evolve into Mega Floette.
As a result of Mega Evolution, the Eternal Flower has doubled in size and its anatomy has become more complex: it no longer has sepals, and the petals are now surrounded by the rims of a larger petal. The inner petals are mostly red, while the outer petals are mostly black, with a thin, black structure connecting these parts and ending in a pointed tip. Near the tips of the outer petals, a blue pattern runs along the rims. It has three jagged stigmata ending in blue tips. The stem has grown much longer and still connects to the central part of the corolla, but it now has three smaller branches supporting the inner petals. Prior to this branching point, the stem becomes more braided in appearance and wraps itself to Mega Floette's lower body.
The Eternal Flower has absorbed all of the Mega Evolution energy and, as a result, developed a will separate from that of Mega Floette, becoming capable of attacking on its own. According to AZ, Mega Floette is the only one who can control Ange and, by harnessing its power, assist it in assuming its true form: Ange Floette.[3] However, it can lose control of the device should there be an excess of Mega Power, resulting in Ange entering a state similar to Rogue Mega Evolution, named Hyperrogue Ange Floette, and causing an explosion of such events. Moreover, Mega Floette can transport humans by enveloping both them and itself within a rainbow orb.
Spoiler warning: this article may contain major plot or ending details.
Pokémon X and Y: Eternal Flower Floette is an important character in the games. 3,000 years prior, AZ's Floette died during a great war in Kalos. Overcome by grief, he created a machine that resurrected Floette, inadvertently making both of them immortal in the process. Upon learning that the machine was fueled by the lives of many other Pokémon, she left him. Only after AZ was finally able to let go of his sorrow, 3,000 years later, did Floette return to him.
Floette has five separate forms, each with one of five different flower colors: Red Flower, Yellow Flower, Orange Flower, Blue Flower, and White Flower. The flower color is maintained through Evolution from Flabébé and into Florges, and cannot be changed.
In certain games, certain forms can only be obtained by evolving the correct Flabébé:
In Pokémon X and Y, Orange and White Flower Floette can only be obtained by evolving an Orange and White Flower Flabébé, respectively. The other forms appear in the wild, but only as options in specific Friend Safaris. Additionally, this means that Orange and White Flower Flabébé, Floette, and Florges cannot legally have their Hidden Ability, Symbiosis, in Generation VI.
In Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon, Yellow Flower Floette can only be obtained by evolving a Yellow Flower Flabébé. The other forms appear in the wild, with Orange and White Flower Floette only appearing as allies during SOS Battles. Blue Flower Floette is the only one to not appear as an ally during battle, meaning it is the only one that cannot be caught with its Hidden Ability, Symbiosis, in Generation VII.
Multiple Orange, Red, Blue, and Yellow Flower Floette appeared in A Windswept Encounter!, with the Orange Flower Floette making its debut, and the Red Flower and Yellow Flower Floette making their animated series debut. The Orange Flower Floette was the object of affection for both Noibat and a wildBreloom, sparking a rivalry between the two.
Goh's five Flabébé evolved into Floette in Under Color of Darkness!, with the Blue, Orange, Yellow, and Red Flower ones evolving at the start of the episode and the White Flower one evolving near the end, marking the last color's animated series debut. The White Flower Floette was afterwards released by Goh to grow more white flowers.

Floette, the Single Bloom Pokémon. A Fairy type. Floette flies around fields of flowers, caring for the ones that aren't getting enough water. It battles by using the innate power of flowers.
AZ's Floette appeared in The Redemption. She was initially seen in a flashback of the great war of Kalos, being sent into battle and eventually dying, leading AZ to create the ultimate weapon with which to revive her. It worked, but after using the weapon to destroy both sides of the army and bring the war to an end, Floette realized how many lives were taken for hers, and left him. She finally returned to him after AZ's battle with Calem in Lumiose City.
AZ's Eternal Flower Floette first appeared in a flashback as he told the story about the ultimate weapon and how he used it to revive her in Flabébé Blooms. She returned to him in Floette Returns.
Floette is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 371.
Eternal Flower Floette is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 551.
Mega Floette is the only Pokémon with a base stat total of 651.
Mega Floette is the smallestMega-Evolved Pokémon, being only 0'08" (0.2 m) tall.
Floette is the only non-fully evolved Pokémon capable of Mega Evolving, though only in its Eternal Flower form, which is incapable of evolving into or from any Pokémon.
Despite only Eternal Flower Floette being able to Mega Evolve, Mega Floette's cry is based on that of regular Floette.
Excluding Mega Evolutions, Floette and its evolutionary relatives are the only Fairy-type Pokémon introduced prior to Generation VIII that cannot be obtained in any Generation VIII game.
Although the Eternal Flower is said to have died out, one can be seen growing near Sootopolis City's Cave of Origin, next to a tree AZ planted in the past.
Floette appears to be based on fairies and nymphs, such as Chloris and Antheia, and how fairies are sometimes depicted flying by holding on to the stems of plants. Its flower is held like a parasol.
The flower of Eternal Flower Floette resembles a lily or a Trillium, especially the red trillium. Because of her connection to death and resurrection in the story of Pokémon X and Y, she may also be inspired by the red spider lily, also known as resurrection lily, which, particularly in Japanese culture, symbolizes death. Eternal Flower Floette's blue, red, and white body matches the colors of the French tricolor.
The shape of Mega Floette's flower resembles a triquetra, a symbol commonly associated with Celtic and Nordic culture.
Name origin
Floette may be a combination of flower and floret, as well as the French diminutive suffix -ette.
↑AZ: "My Floette cannot evolve... Perhaps because she is such a special Pokémon, having received the lives of so many others... Though that is only my conjecture." (Pokémon Legends: Z-A)
↑AZ: "Once Floette has Mega Evolved, she can take on the power of the tower—the power of Ange. Then the tower can assume the form it was always intended to take: Ange Floette." (Pokémon Legends: Z-A)
