Poipole is a small purple Pokémon with a large head and small limbs with no visible digits. It has a long tail with a small spike on it, giving it a vaguely reptilian appearance. The tip of its tail, chest, face and tips of its head spikes are fuchsia. On its head are three spikes. The side spikes and the top of its head have grey nozzles which are capable of firing a glowing adhesive poison. It laughs while targeting opponents with this poison. Poipole's eyes and mouth give off a cyan glow.

Poipole is a small, purple [[Ultra Beast]]. It has a bipedal build with a large head and relatively small limbs with no visible digits. On its head are three spikes: one in the front and one on each side. A single gray needle protrudes from the top of its head and there are additional needles in the spikes on the sides of its head. It has oval eyes with a single eyelash-like spike above each; its mouth and eyes give off a cyan glow. It has a long, tapering tail with a single spine in the middle. While most of its body is dark purple, it has several fuchsia markings: at the tip of each head-spike, on its chest, on top of its head, and on its face.


Poipole originates from [[Ultra Megalopolis]] in [[Ultra Space]], where it is popular as a [[starter Pokémon]]. Poipole is capable of understanding human speech after spending enough time with humans<ref>https://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/ultra/en-us/gallery-detail-5.html</ref>.
Poipole originates from [[Ultra Megalopolis]] in [[Ultra Space]], where it is popular as a [[first partner Pokémon]] in the games. However, Poipole originates from [[Poipole's world|an unnamed world]] in [[Pokémon animated series|Pokémon the Series]]. It is capable of understanding human speech after spending enough time with humans. Poipole's large head is filled with a glowing, adhesive poison, which it can fire from the needles on its head.<ref>[https://web.archive.org/web/20190113221043/https://www.pokemon-sunmoon.com/ultra/en-us/gallery-detail-5.html Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon site | Poipole]</ref> While spraying opponents with this venom, it laughs wildly. As seen in the anime, Poipole can also shoot a harmless multicolored substance as a way to paint, which can be also used to communicate with [[Human|humans]] and [[Pokémon (species)|Pokémon]]. It's shown to have the habit to stand upside down and spin rapidly as a sign of happiness and excitement. Like all Ultra Beasts, Poipole stores the same energy possessed by [[Totem Pokémon]] within its body, which takes the form of a red, flaring aura<ref>[[Wicke]], {{g|Sun and Moon}}:''"When the UBs pass through the Ultra Wormhole, they are bathed in a great deal of this energy and likely store it within their bodies."''</ref>. This energy is called [[Z-Power]]. In ''[[SM084|The Shape of Love to Come!]]'', it is revealed that wild Poipole live in large numbers in huge nests that resemble wasp or hornet nests alongside {{p|Naganadel}}, serving as a queen.

Poipole (Japanese: ベベノム Bevenom) is a Poison-type Ultra Beast introduced during Generation VII, in Pokémon Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon.

It evolves into Naganadel when leveled up while knowing Dragon Pulse.

It is code named UB Adhesive (Japanese: UB:STICKY UB: Sticky).

Biology

Concept art of Poipole
illustrated by James Turner

Poipole is a small, purple Ultra Beast. It has a bipedal build with a large head and relatively small limbs with no visible digits. On its head are three spikes: one in the front and one on each side. A single gray needle protrudes from the top of its head and there are additional needles in the spikes on the sides of its head. It has oval eyes with a single eyelash-like spike above each; its mouth and eyes give off a cyan glow. It has a long, tapering tail with a single spine in the middle. While most of its body is dark purple, it has several fuchsia markings: at the tip of each head-spike, on its chest, on top of its head, and on its face.

Poipole originates from Ultra Megalopolis in Ultra Space, where it is popular as a first partner Pokémon in the games. However, Poipole originates from an unnamed world in Pokémon the Series. It is capable of understanding human speech after spending enough time with humans. Poipole's large head is filled with a glowing, adhesive poison, which it can fire from the needles on its head.[1] While spraying opponents with this venom, it laughs wildly. As seen in the anime, Poipole can also shoot a harmless multicolored substance as a way to paint, which can be also used to communicate with humans and Pokémon. It's shown to have the habit to stand upside down and spin rapidly as a sign of happiness and excitement. Like all Ultra Beasts, Poipole stores the same energy possessed by Totem Pokémon within its body, which takes the form of a red, flaring aura[2]. This energy is called Z-Power. In The Shape of Love to Come!, it is revealed that wild Poipole live in large numbers in huge nests that resemble wasp or hornet nests alongside Naganadel, serving as a queen.

Evolution

Poipole evolves into Naganadel.
