Ribombee (Japanese: アブリボン, Hepburn: Aburibon) is a bug/fairy-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.
Biology
Physiology
Behavior
Ribombee create different varieties of puffs by rolling up pollen, which can be used for food and battles. During rain, it takes shelter in the hollow of a tree and stays there until the rain recedes. It hates rain, as rain makes pollen damp and reveals itself only after a few clear days pass by in a row.
Natural abilities
Ribombee can predict the weather by feeling the moisture levels and wind direction.
Evolution
Ribombee evolves from Cutiefly starting at level 25.
