Shroomish

() is a -type Pokémon introduced in Generation III.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Shroomish is a mushroom-like creature. It is mainly brown above its waist, apart from a few large green spots, and a green underbelly with two round feet. Its waist appears to be flared similar to a skirt. It has a heavy unibrow, a triangular mouth and always seems to be angry.
=== Behavior ===
Shroomish dislike harsh light; they stay in the shade of large leaves and trees during the day, only venturing out after the sun sets. They feed primarily on rotting plant matter and particularly prefer damp soil and compost. After it rains, large numbers of them can be seen emerging from their shelters to feed on the wet, decaying plant matter on the forest floor. Though they normally have mild personalities, Shroomish will not hesitate to attack foes with Poison Powder of Spore if threatened. By shaking their bodies, they can release poisonous spores from the top of their heads, dispersing them in noxious clouds. Inhaling these spores can cause dizziness, nausea, and numbing pain all around the body. Areas with sizable Shroomish populations often will have signs detailing how to avoid startling wild individuals and how to treat Shroomish poisoning. Notably, these Pokémon are placated and will not release their spores when fed Kebia Berries. They may even be occasionally seen holding these Berries themselves as they scuttle across the forest floor.
==Evolution==
Shroomish evolves into Breloom at level 23.

==Appearances==
===Anime===
They appeared in front of Team Rocket and all evolve into Breloom. They are soon defeated by May's Combusken.
==Trivia==
*In Pokémon Omega Ruby and Pokémon Alpha Sapphire, Shroomish can be found holding small mushrooms. This could be an indication that Shroomish feels an attachment to non-Pokémon mushrooms in the same way that a child would feel attachment to a doll.
===Origin===
Shroomish appears to be based on a mushroom.
===Etymology===
Shroomish may come from mushroom and skirmish (which may allude to it gaining the -type upon evolving into Breloom).
