==Trivia==
*Gloom is the only dual-type Pokémon that evolves into a mono-type Pokémon (as it loses its type upon evolving into Bellossom).
*Gloom is the only -type Pokémon with the ability Stench.
*Gloom and Eevee are the only Pokémon that can evolve in two different forms, both requiring an evolution stone.
===Origin===
Gloom is possibly based on a Rafflesia flower, a large flower known for its awful stench. It may also be based on trees seeing how its drool resembles tree sap.
===Etymology===
Gloom may derive from gloom (sadness), glume (a leaf-like structure on plants), and bloom.
