'''Volcarona''' (Japanese: '''ウルガモス''' ''Ulgamoth'') is a {{Type|Bug}}/{{Type|Fire}}-type Pokémon introduced in the [[Generation V]] games [[Pokemon Black and White]]. It evolves from [[Larvesta]] at Level 59. One can also catch a Level 70 Volcarona in the [[Relic Castle]]. It is seen in-game as the [[Alder|Champion Alder's]] strongest Pokémon at Level 77. It resembles an Atlas moth. Contrary to popular belief, Volcarona is not a psuedo-legendary, it is a semi-psuedo as its stat total is 550 instead of 600, and it evolves once, not twice.[[File:Bug-Fire.jpg|thumb|204px|Volcarona at [[Relic Castle]]]]
