Small bumps ring the top of its head, similar to hair. Its head is much larger than its thin, stem-like body. At the base, the stem splits into three green roots that act as feet. Three large mushrooms sprout from the center of its head. Each mushroom has a thin white stem and a darker ring of color around the base of the cap. The center and largest mushroom is light pink, while the other two mushrooms are smaller and a light purplish-blue. At night, Morelull can make the spores filling its mushroom caps glow.

In addition to locomotion, its roots are also used to communicate with other Morelull.Pokémon Sun and Moon site | Morelull When in danger, it scatters spores that burst into bright, glittering sparks.
