Grubbin typically lives underground. It uses its jaw as a weapon, a tool for burrowing, and for extracting sap from trees. Additionally, it can create sticky threads, which it shoots from its mouth and uses to swing around as though on suspension wires. It also uses these threads to stop opponents from moving, so it can then grab them in its mandibles, which are strong enough to snap thick tree branches. Even its natural enemies would rather run away than risk getting caught in its mandibles. It loves electricity and can be found near power plants.

Grubbin (Japanese: アゴジムシ Agojimushi) is a Bug-type Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.
It evolves into Charjabug starting at level 20, which evolves into Vikavolt when leveled up in a special magnetic field or when exposed to a Thunder Stone.
(Specifics may differ in past games. Refer to Game data→Evolution data for these details.)
Biology
Grubbin is a small, insectoid Pokémon. It has a white body with three nubs on either side resembling simple legs. There are two yellow spots on its side. Its head is dominated by two large, yellow mandibles with reddish-orange tips. The rest of its head is brown and has a reddish-orange structure with a yellow rim on top. It has large, black eyes with white pupils.
Grubbin typically lives underground. It uses its jaw as a weapon, a tool for burrowing, and for extracting sap from trees. Additionally, it can create sticky threads, which it shoots from its mouth and uses to swing around as though on suspension wires. It also uses these threads to stop opponents from moving, so it can then grab them in its mandibles, which are strong enough to snap thick tree branches. Even its natural enemies, such as Rookidee and Hoothoot, would rather run away than risk getting caught in its mandibles. It loves electricity and can be found near power plants. They can also be found near Electric-type Pokémon, as a means of avoiding attacks from bird-like Pokémon.[1]
Evolution
Grubbin evolves into Charjabug, which evolves into Vikavolt.

Evolution data
Grubbing evolves into Charjabug starting at level 20, which evolves into Vikavolt when leveled up in a special magnetic field. There is no special magnetic field in Pokémon Sword and Shield, so from Generation VIII onwards, Charjabug is also able to evolve into Vikavolt when exposed to a Thunder Stone.

In the manga
Pokémon Adventures
Grubbin debuts in The Party Crasher and Guzma the Destroyer, where one appears under the ownership of Moon. He evolved into Charjabug sometime before Truth and the Mastermind Behind Team Skull.
In the TCG
- Main article: Grubbin (TCG)
Trivia
- Grubbin, along with its evolved forms, were designed by Hitoshi Ariga.[2]
- Grubbin shares its category with Blipbug. They are both known as the Larva Pokémon.
- Both Grubbin and Blipbug are also the only pure Bug-type Pokémon of their respective generation.
Origin
Grubbin appears to be based on a larval beetle, also known as a grub. It also bears resemblance to a common two-pronged electrical plug, which is further backed by the fact that it gains the Electric type upon evolving into Charjabug.
Name origin
Grubbin may be a combination of grub and grubbing (to scavenge or dig).
Agojimushi may be a combination of 顎 ago (jaw) and 地虫 jimushi (grub).
