'''Ledian''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''レディアン''' ''Redian'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Flying}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} introduced in [[Generation II]]. | |||
It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Ledyba}} starting at [[level]] 18. | |||
= | ==Biology== | ||
Ledian | Ledian is a {{wp|coleoptera}}n {{wp|insect|insectoid}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}} that resembles a slightly humanoid {{wp|Coccinellidae|ladybug}}. It has a pair of black antennae, a black spot in the center of its forehead and on the back of its head, blue eyes, and a cream-colored area around its mouth; the rest of its head is red. The antennae are shorter on the female than on the male. Its back and the top of its elytra are red with black spots, while the underside of its body and elytra are cream-colored. Underneath its elytra are a pair of clear wings. Its neck and limbs are black. It has four arms with white hands that resemble {{wp|boxing glove}}s and a pair of legs with red feet. | ||
Ledian sleeps wrapped in leaves or grass in {{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon|temperate and tropical forests}} during the day. At night, it flutters around scattering a glowing powder that is thought to bring good luck. It is believed to use starlight as energy and the patterns on its back grow larger or smaller depending on the number of stars in the sky. In addition to starlight, it loves to eat [[Berry|Berries]]. A weak fighter, it tries for quantity over power by throwing a barrage of punches with all four of its arms. | |||
= | ===Evolution=== | ||
Ledian evolves from {{p|Ledyba}}. | |||

* Despite multiple Pokédex entries describing its nocturnal behavior, wild Ledian are almost always encountered exclusively during the [[Matutinal Pokémon|morning]] or [[Diurnal Pokémon|daytime]]. | |||
* Despite its {{pkmn|category}} and Silver/FireRed Pokédex entries, Ledian's five spots are neither star-shaped nor are they arranged in a typical star pattern. | |||
** The many references to stars are likely development leftovers referring to Ledian's [[Pokémon Gold and Silver Spaceworld %2797 demo/Pokémon|beta design]], in which the spots were star-shaped. | |||
* Ledian could not learn any {{type|Bug}} or {{type|Flying}} moves until Generation III. Therefore, a Ledian in Generation II could not receive [[same-type attack bonus|STAB]] unless it possessed the appropriate {{m|Hidden Power}}. | |||
** Its level up learnset contained only {{type|Normal}} and {{type|Psychic}} moves until Generation IV. It did not contain any {{type|Bug}} moves until Generation IV or any {{type|Flying}} moves until Generation VII. | |||
===Origin=== | |||
Ledian seems to be based on a {{wp|Coccinellidae|ladybug}}, particularly the {{wp|Harmonia axyridis|Asian ladybeetle}} or {{wp|Coccinella septempunctata|seven-spot ladybird}} due to its bright red color and black spots. Its nocturnal habits and {{wp|bioluminescence}} may be inspired by {{wp|Firefly|fireflies}}. Its humanoid body and large, ovoid head and eyes, as well as its affinity to the stars, are also reminiscent of aliens, such as the {{wp|grey alien}}. | |||
Ledian [[List of references to Pulseman|bears a very significant resemblance]] to {{wp|Pulseman}}, another character made by [[Game Freak]], Pokémon creators.

Pulseman the character resembles such superheroes and ''Pulseman'' the game has combat and graphics inspired by ''tokusatsu'' show tropes. | |||
The "Five-star" species name for Ledian may come from the Japanese name for seven-spot ladybird which is literally called 七星瓢虫 ''seven-star ladybug''. | |||

Ledian (Japanese: レディアン Redian) is a dual-type Bug/Flying Pokémon introduced in Generation II.
It evolves from Ledyba starting at level 18.
Biology
Ledian is a coleopteran insectoid Pokémon that resembles a slightly humanoid ladybug. It has a pair of black antennae, a black spot in the center of its forehead and on the back of its head, blue eyes, and a cream-colored area around its mouth; the rest of its head is red. The antennae are shorter on the female than on the male. Its back and the top of its elytra are red with black spots, while the underside of its body and elytra are cream-colored. Underneath its elytra are a pair of clear wings. Its neck and limbs are black. It has four arms with white hands that resemble boxing gloves and a pair of legs with red feet.
Ledian sleeps wrapped in leaves or grass in temperate and tropical forests during the day. At night, it flutters around scattering a glowing powder that is thought to bring good luck. It is believed to use starlight as energy and the patterns on its back grow larger or smaller depending on the number of stars in the sky. In addition to starlight, it loves to eat Berries. A weak fighter, it tries for quantity over power by throwing a barrage of punches with all four of its arms.

Ledian evolves from Ledyba.
