Revision as of 00:36, 25 October 2009
Due to special coding in place in the article to illustrate Burmy's forms, certain displays will change showing Burmy as though it had last battled on grassy terrain, therefore wearing its Plant Cloak. This will only affect the artwork shown in the infobox and the Pokéthlon stats entry which is unhidden. This changes every day, so when the time comes, click here to return to the page and change the display. |
No Form Burmy
Can someone upload a screen cap from Two Degrees of Separation! of the Burmy that Dawn tried to capture after all of it's leaves had fallen off from Piplup's Bubblebeam? I think it'd be a good addition to the article.
Evolution?
I couldn't find anything about when it evolves on here, or on Wormadam's page. Does it evolve at a certain level, or what? Would appreciate it if someone cleared it up, and posted it on.
Where it changes...
Okay, something weird here. I was battling with my Burmy on Route 222. It was in its Plant Cloak beforehand. Then I get out of battle and it's in its Sandy Cloak, as if I battled in a cave. Did they program it wrong, or are there other areas like this? TTEchidna 08:27, 4 July 2008 (UTC)
- Eh? Didn't see any caves there so that rules out my theory. However, it could be where you were training. Were you trianing it at the beach? I noticed that the Sandy Cloak is covered in rocks, like the sand. It's the Θρtιmαtum♏Talk|Links08:39 4 Jul 2008
- Battling against the sailor guys up on the rocky area by the Sunyshore entrance. Once I went into the grass nearer the beach it became Plant Cloak. TTEchidna 09:32, 5 July 2008 (UTC)
- If Burmy battles in Grass it changes to Grass Cloack, Any rocky surface, be it in a mountainous area like the cliff between Floroma and Veilstone or the inside of a cave, and beaches changes it to Sand Cloak. Inside a building or in a city changes it to Trash. (Latter has yet to be proven as I can't remember any outdoor city battles other than rival ones ^-^;;) Also if you use it on Water it changes back to the default look (grass Cloak) Hope that helps.Xanhawk 22:08 Dec. 21 2008

Hidden Power and Protect
Burmy learns Hidden Power and Protect by leveling up, so it can also learn them by TM. If you want proof, I can get it. Baby G 01:55, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
- No, just because a Pokémon can learn a move by level doesn't automatically guarantee compatability with its TM. In the case of Burmy, it's fully unable to learn any moves through TM. The fact that it gets Protect and Hidden Power by level does not change that. Burmy is one of a small group of Pokémon that can't learn moves through TM.
- By your reasoning, Wynaut and Wobbuffet can learn Safeguard through TM20 in both Generation III and Generation IV, yet neither of them are compatible with that TM. Additionally, by your reasoning, Dratini and Dragonair can learn Hyper Beam through TM15 in all generations when those two weren't compatible with the TM until Generation III. It's the same with Burmy and Protect/Hidden Power.
- And I could go on forever. Level-up compatability and TM compatability are two totally separate things. Knowing a move by level does NOT gurantee learning it through TM. --Shiningpikablu252 14:39, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
- I'll make a video showing myself teaching Hidden Power to my newly-hatched Burmy. Then, I'll erase Protect from its moveset, and make a video showing me teaching it Protect by TM as well. Baby G 18:47, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
- And what cheat device do you plan to use? You must plan on using one (either that, your game's fake, or you're flat-out lying), since there's no way a TM would work in a normal, genuine game. It would have to be compatible with all other universal TMs such as TM32 (Double Team) if Burmy were to be compatible with the TMs for Protect and Hidden Power or if Wobbuffet were to be compatible with the TM for Safeguard. --Shiningpikablu252 18:53, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
- I only have one cheating device, which is Action Replay. Action Replay goes in the back of your DS. When the video starts recording, I'll show the back of my DS so everyone can see that there's no Action Replay in there. Baby G 18:57, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

- Games may have unexplained glitches that occur simply by having used a cheat device with them, and persist even if the cheat device isn't being used. Anyone who's heard of a bug involving the Summoner class in Fire Emblem: The Sacred Stones will know what I mean; the bug, commonly known as the "Knoll bug", flares up upon usage of a cheat device and does not flare down upon stopping the cheat device usage. While there are reports of that bug having flared up without a cheat device, those are very rare and are not easy to replicate.
- Trust me, if Burmy WERE to have been compatible with those two TMs, we would have known it around from the point when the games were first released in Japan, similar to how we would have known if Mew was compatible with Draco Meteor's tutor were it to have been compatible. While some information does indeed slip through the cracks, movelist compatability is not the kind of information that has the tendency to do that. --Shiningpikablu252 19:04, 30 August 2008 (UTC)
- Shin is right. Burmy cannot learn any TMs. I train three every game I start and they have never been able to learn Hidden Power other than leveling. I wish they could but they can't. Xanhawk 22:08 Dec. 21 2008
The hatch Burmy
When I put my Mothim and Wormadam(Trash Cloak) into the Day care and I get three Burmy's eggs. Interesting is all the hatched out Burmy are in is Trash cloak.Should this be mentioned? Trash cloak 09:07, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
- Hmm... I'd say we should do more experimenting to make sure, or have someone hack the game code and tell us. --((Marton imos)) 09:13, 3 November 2008 (UTC)
My Wormadam Sand and Ditto came out as a Burmy Sand.Nintendofan146B 01:59, 10 November 2008 (UTC)
- Burmy that hatched from a Wormadam will always mimic the cloak of the mother. I bred plenty of them to know this. Mothim Breeding I think yelds Grass Cloak as that is the Default Cloak. Xanhawk 22:08 Dec. 21 2008
Burmy Oddities
While I was doing some research, I found that if a Burmy battles on a beach, it becomes a Sand Cloak Burmy, which I posted on the article page soon after. I also found that if you battle with Burmy out on water (while Surfing), it becomes a Grass Cloak Burmy (I found this even after you change forms--If Burmy is already in its Grass Cloak, it remains the same; if it is in the Sandy or Trash Cloak, it will become a Grass Cloak) this is very confusing (they should make some water forme to address this abnormality...), anyway, just reporting this through my research (though this is old information I learned quite some time ago). Incidentally, does anybody know what happens if you battle with Burmy at Spear Pillar? Rpp 23:27, 16 November 2008 (UTC)
- I answered this already. I honestly have no idea how Burmy finds the leaves in the ocean, but over water Burmy takes its Default Form (grass Cloak) It will change anywhere else, but Water always changes to Grass Claok. Xanhawk 22:08 Dec. 21 2008
- Seaweed? Besides, a water-cloak wouldn't make any sense, how would they keep it suspended?--MisterE13 04:10, 22 December 2008 (UTC)
- It should make a sea shell cloak! Taromon777 18:45, 27 January 2009 (UTC)

Trash difficulties?
It says that people had trouble getting Tash cloak Burmy and that it was fixed in Platinum. Hello, can anyone say Jubilife TV Station and Seven Stars restaurant?--MisterE13 15:42, 22 November 2008 (UTC)
- The Seven Stars Restaurant, for whatever reason, does not change Burmy's cloak, at least in D/P. (Don't know for Platinum.) The Jubilife TV station does work, though. Capsule Computer 22:07, 23 August 2009 (UTC)
