==Summary==
Venonat is an instectoid Pokémon with a spherical body covered in purple fur. Poison oozes from all over its fuzzy body. A pink pincer-like mouth with two teeth, stubby forepaws, and a pair of two-toed feet are visible through its fur. Its limbs are light tan. There is also a pair of white antennae sprouting from the top of its head. However, the most prominent feature on its face are its large, red compound eyes. Venonat's highly developed eyes act as radar units and can shoot powerful beams. Venonat can be found in dense forests, where it will sleep in the hole of a tree until nightfall. It sleeps throughout the day because the small insects it feeds on appear only at night. Both Venonat and its prey are attracted to bright lights.
Venomoth is an insectoid Pokémon whose body is varying shades of purple. Its head and thorax are light purple, and it has bulbous, round light blue eyes, a small mandible, and a three-point crest on its head. Tucked close to its thorax are three pairs of tiny, whitish legs. Its abdomen is paler with several black, zigzagging stripes encircling it. It has two pairs of pale purple moth-like wings with thin black venation. These wings are covered in dust-like scales that vary in color depending on their toxic capability. Dark scales are poisonous, while lighter scales can cause paralysis. These scales are released when Venomoth flutters its wings. Venomoth lives in dense forests with thick undergrowth and little light. As a nocturnal Pokémon, Venomoth comes out at night to hunt of its favorite prey. It prefers to feed on insects that gather around light, and Venomoth is attracted to bright lights itself.

*Psychic: Venonat projects a powerful burst of telekinetic force at the opponent, causing severe mental disruption, major physical trauma and the ability to forcibly weaken their defenses.
*Foresight: Venonat enables a Ghost-type target to be hit by Normal- and Fighting-type attacks; in other words, their intangibility/non-corporeality is negated. This also enables an evasive target to be hit via thought reading. Furthermore, this has the secondary effects of undoing illusions and allowing the user to see invisible targets.

|-|Egg Moves=

*Secret Power: The additional effects of this attack depend upon where it was used.
*Skill Swap: Venomoth employs its psychic power in order to exchange abilities with the opponent.
*Toxic Spikes: Venomoth opens its mouth and a dark purple orb forms inside it. It then fires the ball into the air, which spirals and releases four small streams of purple smoke from the top of the ball. The orb then explodes, forming into multiple smaller orbs that fall and sink into the battlefield. The smaller orbs leave trails of purple smoke behind them as they fall. Any opposing enemy that steps on the battlefield will get poisoned, if Toxic Spikes is used one more time, it will be badly poisoned instead.
