## Biology

Bupidanite is a greyish-black Fakémon resembling a pot or cauldron. This cauldron body is filled with a dark watery substance, similar to that of Polteageist. Three stubby legs extend from the "corners" of its base. A flat face is visible on one side with two large yellow eyes and a mischievous grin. A wire handle extends over the top of its body, which this handle can be loudly clanged against to wake everyone nearby.

Its size and weight vary depending on which form the specimen is, Dainty Form or Brash Form. Bupidanite cannot switch between these forms. Wild and bred Bupidanite have a 75% chance of generating as Dainty Form, and a 25% chance of generating as Brash Form.

Bupidanite are tricky Fakémon, often sneaking into homes and businesses at night to cause mischief and mayhem by knocking over items, loudly waking residents, and leaving annoying water-based traps around. They get very angry however if anyone puts food in them, as this weakens their watery abilities.

Bupidanite is the only Fakémon capable of learning the moves Water Slick (Dainty Form) and Slosh (Brash Form), although it cannot learn both.

Bupidanite, the CAULDRON Fakémon

Topaz, Dainty Form: "Bupidanite like to sneak into homes and pull pranks. Their favorite is leaving a trail of water so that people slip."

Amethyst, Dainty Form: "There are two different types of Bupidanite, Dainty and Brash. No matter the size, they still love pranks all the same."

Topaz, Brash Form: "When you hear a loud noise in your house late at night, it is either a burglar or even worse, a Bupidanite."

Amethyst, Brash Form: "Ghostly energy and painful memories mix with the water they hold in their bodies to make a ghastly concoction. They use this concoction to make awful traps."

## Origin

Bupidanite is based on a poltergeist and a magic cauldron. Its name is a corruption of the phrase "*things that go bump in the night*". "Brash Form" is a joke on brass cookware.

## Trivia

* Bupidanite can be seen as a counterpart to Flimsio. Both are single-stage Ghost-type Fakémon with a height of 0.5 meters (at least in Bupidanite's Dainty Form), the same Base Stat Total, and the ability Poltergeist. Furthermore, Bupidanite is much more common and easier to find in Fakémon Topaz while Flimsio is much more common in Fakémon Amethyst
