Vivillon(JP) is a species of Pokémon in the series of the same name. It is a dual-type Bug-type/Flying-type Pokémon that made its first appearance in the sixth generation games X and Y. Vivillon comes in quite a few varieties depending on the region played in.
Physiology and Behaviour[]
Vivillon's variety of forms
Vivillon is a butterfly-like Pokémon with wings that come in a large variety of patterns. It has a round, grayish head with large, black, pixelated eyes and a pair of skinny antennae. The tips of the antennae each have an ovoid scale that is dark gray on the upper half and beige on the lower half. Vivillon's thorax is an ovoid and divided into three segments; each segment is a different shade of gray. Its legs are also ovoid and are dark gray on the lower half, beige on the upper half, and have a black band in the middle. It has two black, circular hands and no visible arms. While Vivillon's wings come in a wide variety of colors and patterns, they always have black edges and pixelated markings. It can spread its scales to poison its opponents during battle or, as shown in the anime, to calm an opponent's fighting spirit. It is highly capable of finding sources of water, such as springs.
Vivillon has 20 separate forms; the pattern of Vivillon's wings is affected by the climate and topography of the environment it lives and is born in.

Patterns[]
Vivillon has 20 separate forms; each having different patterns on its wings. Scatterbug and Spewpa have the pattern of Vivillon they will evolve into already set when the Pokémon is generated; for Pokémon eggs, this means the game in which the Egg was created, regardless of parents. This form cannot be changed.
18 of the patterns correspond to certain regions, while the other two do not. The regions corresponding to each pattern differ somewhat between the Nintendo 3DS and Pokémon GO.

Trivia[]
- Vivillon and its pre-evolved forms are the only Bug-type Pokémon introduced in the Sixth Pokémon generation.
- As of the Ninth Pokémon generation, Vivillon has the most Pokédex entries for a single Pokémon, with 20 per game (one for each form).
- Prior to Version 1.2.0, only some of these 20 entries were accessible, as Spewpa could only evolve into Fancy Pattern Vivillon in Pokémon Scarlet and Violet, and only a few other entries could be gained from NPC encounters.
