| ===Special abilities===
| |
| Masquerain has patterns on its antennae that it uses to scare off would-be attackers. It can fly in nearly any direction, but is unable to do this if its wings get wet. As it has connections to the {{type|Water}}, Masquerain and {{p|Surskit|its pre-evolution}} are capable of using {{type|Ice}} attacks, being the only non-legendary {{t|Bug}}-types to do so.

| | |
| ===Behavior===
| |
| Despite its appearance, Masquerain is usually a peaceful Pokémon. Because it cannot fly if its wings get wet, it shelters itself from rain under large trees and eaves.

Masquerain (Japanese: アメモース Amemoth) is a dual-type Bug/Flying Pokémon.
It evolves from Surskit starting at level 22.
Biology
Masquerain is a light-blue Pokémon with two pairs of rhombus-shaped wings. These wings allow it to fly in any direction, but it cannot fly if its wings are wet. Its head is shaped like an elongated teardrop with a pink face and round, black eyes with white pupils. It has a pair of large, pink and white antennae resembling a pair of angry eyes. These eyespots are used to intimidate its enemies. Rainy weather causes its antennae to become heavy and the eye patterns to appear droopy.

Masquerain's antennas have eyelike patterns that usually give it an angry look. If the "eyes" are droopy and appear sad, it is said to be a sign that a heavy rainfall is on its way.

It intimidates foes with the large eyelike patterns on its antennae. Because it can't fly if its wings get wet, it shelters itself from rain under large trees and eaves.
