Trivia
- While it seems to be a counterpart to Swadloon, it evolves through leveling instead of friendship.
- Although it's similar to Kakuna and Cascoon in nature, it does not evolve from its previous form nor into it's final form quite as fast as them.
- Whirlipede looks similar to a wheel.
- Whirlipede is simmilar to Shelgon since both are in the middle of the evolutionary line and they look alike.
