==Biology==
==Biology==
Misdreavus is a dark bluish-green, ghost-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. While it has no visible arms or legs, its lower half has several small appendages and resembles a ruffled dress. It has several round red gems around its neck, which are used to absorb fear and use it as nourishment. When defeated, its body disappears, leaving only the gems around its neck behind. This implies that Misdreavus retreats into the gems when it has been severely weakened. It has long, flowing lilac-tipped "hair". Misdreavus's large, red eyes have yellow sclerae.

Misdreavus is a dark bluish-green, ghost-like {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}. While it has no visible arms or legs, its lower half has several small appendages and resembles a ruffled dress. It has five round red gems halfway around its neck, which are used to absorb fear and use it as nourishment. When defeated in the {{DL|Pokémon games|side series}} games, its body disappears, leaving only the gems around its neck behind. This implies that Misdreavus retreats into the gems when it has been severely weakened. It has long, flowing lilac-tipped "hair". Misdreavus's large, red eyes have yellow sclerae.


Misdreavus lives in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|caves}}. As a [[nocturnal]] Pokémon, it spends its days sleeping in darkness and its nights startling people with mischievous tricks. Since it loves watching frightened people, it is known to yank and bite at people's hair or sneak up on them and cry and shriek. In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Misdreavus is shown to be able to use its "hair" to grasp objects and other Pokémon, as if it were hands.

Since it loves watching frightened people, it is known to yank and bite at people's hair or sneak up on them and cry and shriek in a way a child would. In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Misdreavus is shown to be able to use its "hair" to grasp objects and other Pokémon, as if it were hands. {{p|Flutter Mane}} shares a resemblance to Misdreavus. It was theorized to be a giant Misdreavus reborn as a pterosaur ghost.


Prior to [[Generation IV]], {{m|Pain Split}} was its [[signature move]]. In [[Generation II]], {{m|Psywave}} was also its signature move.

Misdreavus (Japanese: ムウマ Muma) is a Ghost-type Pokémon introduced in Generation II.

It evolves into Mismagius when exposed to a Dusk Stone.

The Paradox Pokémon Flutter Mane is said to be an ancient relative of Misdreavus.

Biology

Misdreavus gathering energy

Misdreavus is a dark bluish-green, ghost-like Pokémon. While it has no visible arms or legs, its lower half has several small appendages and resembles a ruffled dress. It has five round red gems halfway around its neck, which are used to absorb fear and use it as nourishment. When defeated in the side series games, its body disappears, leaving only the gems around its neck behind. This implies that Misdreavus retreats into the gems when it has been severely weakened. It has long, flowing lilac-tipped "hair". Misdreavus's large, red eyes have yellow sclerae.

Misdreavus lives in caves. As a nocturnal Pokémon, it spends its days sleeping in darkness and its nights startling people with mischievous tricks. Since it loves watching frightened people, it is known to yank and bite at people's hair or sneak up on them and cry and shriek in a way a child would. In the anime, Misdreavus is shown to be able to use its "hair" to grasp objects and other Pokémon, as if it were hands. Flutter Mane shares a resemblance to Misdreavus. It was theorized to be a giant Misdreavus reborn as a pterosaur ghost.

Prior to Generation IV, Pain Split was its signature move. In Generation II, Psywave was also its signature move. Other Pokémon could still inherit both moves via breeding.

Evolution

Misdreavus evolves into Mismagius.

(For specifics on this Pokémon's Evolution in the games, refer to Game data→Evolution data.)

Trivia

Origin

Misdreavus' nocturnal habits of wailing to frighten people and its similarity in appearance to a disembodied head are shared by various mythological creatures. One of these is the nukekubi, which shares the similarities of nocturnal habits, flying about as a decapitated head, and wailing to increase its victims' fright. Another possible source of origin is the banshee, a female spirit from Irish mythology, known in modern media for its unearthly wailing and screaming. Its shape also resembles the Teru teru bōzu and the typical depiction of a ghost with a bedsheet. The red orbs look similar to a Japamala.

Its names in different languages referencing dreams also point to Mares as a possible inspiration.

Name origin

Misdreavus may be a combination of mischievous and dream. It may also involve mistress, miscreant, dread, and dreary.

Muma may be derived from 夢魔 muma (nightmare; demon in a dream).
