The Story

What the Pokédex says

  • Legends: Arceus

    If its cloak is even slightly damaged, Burmy will immediately repair it with whatever is close at hand. The Pokémon within the cloak is scrawny and vulnerable to the cold.

  • Alpha Sapphire

    If its cloak is broken in battle, it quickly remakes the cloak with materials nearby.

  • Omega Ruby

    To shelter itself from cold, wintry winds, it covers itself with a cloak made of twigs and leaves.

  • White 2

    Even if it is born where there are no cocooning materials, it somehow always ends up with a cloak.

1 more entries from older games
  • SoulSilver

    It covers itself with a cloak to shelter from the cold. When it’s hot, its cloak is thinner.
