It evolves from Floette when exposed to a Shiny Stone. It is the final form of Flabébé. Florges also has five separate forms, each named for the color of its flower: Red Flower, Yellow Flower, Orange Flower, Blue Flower, and White Flower.
Florges is a slender, nymph-like Pokémon. Its head, chest, arms, and fingers are white, and its lower body is green and bent forward at the waist, ending in a butterfly-shaped tail, with the upper "wings" resembling large, patterned leaves. Surrounding its neck and the back of its head is an ornate flower arrangement, which can be mainly red, yellow, orange, blue, or white, with differently-colored flowers scattered throughout. Its eyes are dark and have white sclerae, with a leaf-like, green extension similar to a quarter note above each, resembling eyelashes. It has a pointed nose and long, teardrop-shaped ears. Two thin, black lines run across the top of its head, and two dark green diamond shapes cover its chest. Florges is a female-only species with no male counterpart.
Florges claims its territory by gathering flowers and creating exquisite flower gardens,[1] which are said to emit an energy that heals body and spirit alike. Specifically, White Flower Florges is said to decorate its flower garden with flowers of varied colors. It devotes its life for the garden it takes care of, to the point of ruthlessly punishing anyone who vandalizes it, even if they beg for mercy. In fact, Florges is so renowed for its skill in arranging flowers that it was usual practice for castle governors to raise a Florges to embellish, protect, and care for their gardens. It has a long lifespan, with registers of one specimen living for over 300 years.
Florges can synchronize with flowers through different wavelengths in order to draw forth the energy they have, which it can fire as powerful beams in a manner comparable to an artillery battery. It is also said to be capable of controlling the flowers it grows.
Florges can live for hundreds of years, and it devotes its entire life to protecting a single garden. It's thanks to Florges that the flower gardens in the nature park are so beautiful.

Origin
Florges appears to be based on fairies and nymphs, in particular Anthousai due to its heavy connection to flowers. The ornate flower arrangement around its neck may be a reference to the 18th century pouf hairstyle, which would commonly use decorative items within the hair itself to convey mood and uniqueness. The fluffy flowers on its head look similar to lilacs. Its body structure resembles that of the hyacinth flower, which has large sturdy leaves projecting from the base of the stalk.
Name origin
Florges may be a combination of flower or flora and gorgeous.
