Cosmoem (Japanese: コスモウム Cosmovum) is a Psychic-type Legendary Pokémon introduced in Generation VII.

It evolves from Cosmog starting at level 43 and evolves into either Solgaleo or Lunala starting at level 53 depending on the game it evolves in.

• In Pokémon Sun and Ultra Sun, Cosmoem evolves into Solgaleo.
• In Pokémon Moon and Ultra Moon, Cosmoem evolves into Lunala.

Biology

Cosmoem is a Pokémon in the shape of a translucent, dark blue orb with a starscape pattern set in a golden shell-like structure. The main portion of the shell is a flat oval around the center of the orb. Eight more flat, half-oval projections surround the orb in an asterisk-shape. At the center of the main body is a much smaller black core. The upper half of the core has a thin blue line on the front, back, and each side, while the lower has pink lines. On the front are two orange semicircles, which appear to be closed eyes. The overall shape of this Pokémon also resembles an eye.

Encased in its sturdy, cocoon-like shell, Cosmoem is unable to move. In Pokémon Refresh, it cannot even eat. It grows as it absorbs light, and its body is warm to the touch. In ancient times, it was worshipped as the "cocoon of the stars" by the people of Alola.

Cosmoem is one of the smallest Pokémon tying with Joltik, Flabébé, Cutiefly, and Comfey. Despite this, it is also the heaviest Pokémon, being tied with Celesteela.

Trivia

• Requiring 43 levels to evolve from Cosmog and just 10 more to evolve into either Solgaleo or Lunala, Cosmeom has the lowest relative second-stage evolution requirement, at around 23%.
• Cosmoem is the smallest Legendary Pokémon.

Origin

Cosmoem has characteristics of both a stylized sun and a stylized moon, having rays and a pair of crescents, respectively. Its enormous weight despite its extremely small size shares similarities with super-compressed astronomical bodies such as black holes and neutron stars. Given its description, it seems to be an embodiment of star formation in general. It may also be based on the idea of the world egg. When viewed from the front, its shape resembles an eye.

Name origin

Cosmoem may be a combination of cosmo and embryo.

Cosmovum may be a combination of cosmo and ovum (Latin for egg).
