Summary

Applin

Applin is a dual-type Grass/Dragon Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII.

Type: Grass / Dragon

Abilities: - Ripen: Doubles the effect of Berries eaten by the Pokémon. - Gluttony: The Pokémon eats held Berries when its HP drops to half or less. - Hidden Ability: Bulletproof - Protects the Pokémon from some ball and bomb moves.

Physical Characteristics: - Resembles a green apple with a worm-like dragon inside. - It has a stem-like body that is dark green on the top and lighter on the bottom. - Has two leaf-like arms and a pair of red eyes within the apple.

Behavior and Habitat: - Known to hide from enemies inside its hard apple-like shell. - Typically found in grasslands and forests.

In Battle: - Known for its defense-focused battle strategy. - Can use its Ripen ability to double the effects of its held Berry.

Evolution: - Applin can evolve into Flapple when exposed to a Tart Apple, or into Appletun when exposed to a Sweet Apple.

Interesting Facts: - Despite its dragon typing, Applin's design is based on the concept of a worm in an apple. - It's one of the few Pokémon that have different evolution outcomes based on the item used. - The choice between its two evolutions, Flapple or Appletun, is dependent on the version of the game: Tart Apples are more common in Pokémon Sword, and Sweet Apples are more common in Pokémon Shield.

Moves

Flavor Text Entries

  • Sword: It spends its entire life inside an apple. It hides from its natural enemies, bird Pokémon, by pretending it’s just an apple and nothing more.
  • Shield: As soon as it’s born, it burrows into an apple. Not only does the apple serve as its food source, but the flavor of the fruit determines its evolution.
