Pineco

() is a -type Pokémon that was introduced in Generation II.
==Biology==
===Physiology===
Pineco looks like a large green pine cone with two red eyes on the inside of its "shell".
===Behavior===
Pineco make their homes under the branches of trees, attaching themselves with a sticky, resinous fluid they produce from their bodies. They also uses this fluid to attach pieces of tree bark to themselves, creating thicker, makeshift shells that protect them from avian Pokémon who mistake them for actual pinecones. Older individuals can construct huge shells this way, with some surrounding themselves with so much bark that the branches supporting them begin to sag or even break. Pineco don’t move much, sticking to the same branch until evolution. They remain sedentary and feed upon unsuspecting insects that land on the bark surrounding them and become trapped in the sticky fluid they secrete. This resin is fragrant, smelling like the pine trees they are often found on. Multiple Pineco can often be found living in a single tree, sometimes even on the same branches. When such trees are disturbed, Pineco are known to drop off of their branches in order to defend their neighbors. They can spontaneously ignite their resin and explode, sending pieces of their bark casings everywhere like shrapnel.
===Diet===
It is stated in the Pokémon that Pineco in Alola eat Cutiefly.
==Evolution==
Pineco evolves into Forretress once it reaches level 31.
