012 - Spiriller (The Caterpillar Pokémon)
Rarity: Common
Evolves From: N/A
Evolves Into: Spiricoon (Happiness - In daytime)
Type: Bug/Ghost
Appearance: Spiriller appears to resemble a short, stubby caterpillar. Its body is made of three round balls, with the middle ball being the largest, and the other two being equal size. On one end of the body is another round ball-shaped head, with a large round eye, coloured black with a dark purple outline, on either side of the head, a small mouth, and what looks like two small antennae poking out of its head, each of which are topped with a small purple orb that looks like its surrounded by a ghostly aura. Either side of its main body are five stubby black limbs, each with small purple dots covering them. At the other end of the body is a very short, stubby tail, with what looks like a small hole in the end, which the silk it spins comes out of. Its body is furry and coloured a musky purple, with small patches of dark grey mixed in.
Ability: Compoundeyes, Dynamix (Hidden)
Moves:
START - Attract
START - Tackle
START - String Shot
- Copycat
- Quiver Dance
- Night Shade
- Leech Life
- Shadow Ball
- Double Team
- Mystery Choice (The target is wrapped within a dark, musky grey mist. The mist confuses them into using a random move. While this move is active, because it lasts for three turns after its use, it can also poison them, on a low chance)
PokéDex Entry: They are known to wrap themselves up in the silk they spin as a defense mechanism and to keep warm. They camouflage well anywhere at night and within patches of dark plants in the day.
013 - Spiricoon (The Cocoon Pokémon)
Rarity: Common
Evolves From: Spiriller (Happiness - In daytime)
Evolves Into: Spiritalia (Dusk Stone)
Type: Bug/Ghost
Appearance: Whilst generally, it has the same sort of shape as Spiriller, it's shape is fatter and less rounded than Spiriller, so that there are more angles than round edges. Instead of being furry, its skin is now a hardened shell made out of the silk it once spun, but still with a hole at the end. Because of this, its hardened shell can feel soft at times, or seem almost furry in some lights. Its eyes match that of when it was a Spiriller, but with a dark grey outline. Its body is now coloured black with dark musky purple streaks, and it has no antennae. In some lights, it can look like a large gemstone, if your at a certain angle.
Ability: Immunity, Dynamix (Hidden)
Moves:
(Same as Spiriller)
- Taunt
- Sand Attack
- Poison Tackle
- Encore
PokéDex Entry: The silk it spun as a Spiriller has now become its hardened cocoon while it waits to evolve. Because of its shine and shape, some people mistake them for large gemstones.
014 - Spiritalia (The Butterfly Pokémon)
Rarity: Common
Evolves From: Spiricoon (Dusk Stone)
Evolves Into: N/A
Type: Bug/Ghost
Appearance: Spiritalia, as their species name suggests, looks like a butterfly. Its main body is a dark, musky purple colour, and shaped similar to that of an egg, but split into three sections, each patterned with black swirls. Either side of its head is a large black, dark blue rimmed eye. It also has a small mouth, six small legs, three on either side of its body and two antennae coming off of its head, each one curling into the shape of a small butterfly. Its wings, meanwhile, are large in comparison to its body. They are shaped much like typical butterfly wings, but with curled corners. Each wing is bordered with silver, and is mainly violet, musky black and a very dark pink swirled together to create a 'marbled' effect. There is also a shape on each wing similar to that of an eye-hole in a mask, coloured black with a dark gold outline.
Ability: Dynamix, Illusion (Hidden)
Moves:
(Same as Spiricoon)
- Silver Wind
- Confuse Ray
- Ominous Wind
- Buzz Recall (A Bug/Ghost-Type move that can even be used by a non Bug/Ghost-Type, the user makes a loud buzzing sound which causes confusion, and recalls the last status effect that affected the target. If the target had no previous status effect before the move is used, then it has no major effect except to confuse)
PokéDex Entry: They are known as the elusive, mysterious butterflies of the Pokémon world. If found laying on the ground, they can be mistaken for masquerade masks, because of the pattern on their wings.
Trivia:
~ This evolution line is the only one in the Meridia Region to evolve without leveling up. This means that, if you wanted, you could just catch a Spiriller, quickly make it happy to evolve it into a Spiricoon, and then hand it a Dusk Stone to evolve into Spiritalia, all before it gains a few levels. Most trainers level up their Spiriller before evolving it though, although some just evolve it straight away. This mostly occurs with co-ordinators wanting a graceful and beautiful Pokémon straight away.
~ This evolution line is also one of the few to deviate away from the normal amount of moves extra it learns at each evolution stage. Spiriller learns an extra seven moves after its START moves, instead of eight. Spiricoon learns an extra four moves instead of five. Spiritalia is the only one to follow the rule, learning four moves after its evolution from its pre-evolution.
~ Spriller's name is a combination of Spirit and Caterpillar.
~ Spiricoon's name is a combination of Spirit and Cocoon.
~ Spiritalia's name is Spirit with alia added on the end.
