    Evolution

    Abilities

    Swarm

    When this Pokémon has 1/3 or less of its HP remaining, its Bug-type moves inflict 1.5× as much regular damage. Overworld: If the lead Pokémon has this ability, the wild encounter rate is increased.

    Insomnia

    This Pokémon cannot be asleep. This causes Rest to fail altogether. If a Pokémon is asleep and acquires this ability, it will immediately wake up; this includes when regaining a lost ability upon leaving battle. This ability functions identically to Vital Spirit in battle.

    SniperHidden

    This Pokémon inflicts triple damage with critical hits, rather than the usual double damage.

    With threads from its mouth, it fashions sturdy webs that won’t break even if you set a rock on them.
