Alcremie (Pokémon)

**Alcremie** (Japanese: **マホイップ** *Mawhip*) is a Fairy-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII.

It evolves from Milcery while holding a Sweet when its Trainer spins and strikes a pose. The form it takes upon evolving depends on the time of the day, the length of the spin, and whether the Trainer was spinning clockwise or counterclockwise. It is also dependent on the type of Sweet that is held.

Alcremie has a Gigantamax form.

## Biology

Template:Cleanup
Alcremie is a vaguely anthropoid Pokémon with a body composed of whipped cream. Its head resembles several dollops of whipped cream styled like hair, with a large crowning dollop flanked by two loop-like "bangs." Each of these bangs is topped with either a strawberry, blueberries, clovers, or several varieties of candy, depending on which Sweet the Alcremie was given to hold as a Milcery when evolving. Alcremie's lower body is similarly composed of two dollops of whipped cream resembling a robe or a dress. It has two stout arms with three fingers each extending between the dollops of its body. Alcremie is a female-only species with no male counterpart.

Alcremie's flavor and color are wildly variable and dependent on the time of day, direction, and duration for which it was swirled while it was a Milcery. An Alcremie's flavor affects the color of its body, which can be any of several pastel shades. Its eye color matches the color of its sweet.

In its Gigantamax form, Alcremie's body resembles a towering, five-tiered cake. The apical tier of the cake resembles Alcremie's regular body, though it's wearing a bow and its whipped-cream "hair" is styled into a flamboyant swoop. Each of the bottom layers of the cake feature an assortment of the sweets that can be used to evolve Alcremie from Milcery. Three red clouds surround the fourth tier of its body. The first tier of its body is frosted yellow and adorned with an alternating row of star sweets and dotted frosting. The second tier is frosted pink and features a magenta frosting bow topped with a clover sweet. The third tier is frosted blue and encircled with a row of flower-shaped sweets. Additionally, it features an arch of blueberries. The fourth tier is also frosted pink and encircled with heart-shaped sweets, with the ventral candied heart being a little larger than the rest. Dollops of whipped cream encircle Gigantamax Alcremie's body between each of its tiers.

When a trainer gains Alcremie's trust, Alcremie will treat them to Berries with cream. The content of the cream it makes becomes richer and sweeter the happier it is, and the flavor of the cream varies depending on the form it evolves into. Due to the cream it makes being very delicious, many pastry chefs seek to have Alcremie as a partner. If attacked, it will throw a sweet-scented cream to distract or blind the opponent in order to escape. The cream's effect is powerful enough to make an opponent soothed and lose the will to battle should they eat the cream.

The cream pouring from Gigantamax Alcremie is endless. When the cream gets hit by a strong impact, the cream hardens depending on the blow. This allows it to be resistant to all physical attacks while the giant berry decorations cannot be scratched due to them being as hard as diamond. When Gigantamax Alcremie unleashes its  super high-calorie missiles, each filled with 100,000 kilocalories, it will cause the opponent who touches the cream to be filled with energy and euphoria, however the opponent will then fall into a state of complete confusion along with the other two effects.

Alcremie is the only known Pokémon capable of using the move Decorate and the exclusive G-Max Move G-Max Finale.
