Smoliv (Japanese: ミニーブ Minību) is a dual-type Grass/Normal Pokémon introduced in Generation IX.

It evolves into Dolliv starting at level 25, which evolves into Arboliva starting at level 35.

Biology

Smoliv is a small Pokémon resembling an olive. It has a round green body with two stubby legs. It has beady black eyes with white pupils and a jagged mouth. A few leaves surround a yellow fruit with a hole on top of its body.

In the fruit on its head, Smoliv stores a very bitter and astringent oil made from nutrients it gathers through photosynthesis, and as a result, it can go for a week without eating or drinking. The oil Smoliv stores is not suitable for consumption, and it is bitter enough to make someone flinch. When startled or attacked, Smoliv will shoot this oil out, slowing its opponent down, and then it will run away. It prefers dry and sunny climates, and tends to spend its time sunbathing.
