Slither Wing (Japanese: チヲハウハネ Chiohauhane) is a dual-type Bug/Fighting Paradox Pokémon introduced in Generation IX.

It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon, but it appears to be an ancient relative of Volcarona.

Biology

Slither Wing is a large, moth-like Pokémon with four legs. It appears to have compound eyes that are two shades of red, and there is a red spiny horn-like structure on each side of its face. The fuzz on its body and legs is smoky white and tangled. Its abdomen is black in the center and light blue with black dots on the outside. It has six leaf-like wings that are orange in color with yellow-orange tips and have small yellow diamond-shaped marks; they do not seem to be strong enough to allow it to fly.

It somewhat resembles an ancient form of Volcarona that was introduced in a dubious magazine, presumably the paranormal magazine "Occulture". It is said to share traits with Volcarona and its name came from a similarly described creature in the Scarlet Book. There has been rare sightings of Slither Wing. It is believed Slither Wing may have been revived from a fossil from a prehistoric era, despite no fossil evidence.

Trivia

• Slither Wing is both the tallest Bug-type Pokémon and the tallest Fighting-type Pokémon.
• Currently, out of all Paradox Pokémon, Slither Wing is tied with Iron Moth for having the smallest increase in base stat total from its apparent relative, with an increase of 20 points.
• Slither Wing is the only Pokémon whose Japanese name contains the kana ヲ wo.

Origin

Due to its elongated abdomen, flightlessness, and wings colored differently on its tip, Slither Wing seems to be based on female specimens of the Bagworm Moth Cebysa leucotelus. Slither Wing is also likely based on the same moths Volcarona is likely based on, such as the Atlas moth or cecropia moth. It also bears some resemblance to a Stegosaurus.

Name origin

Slither Wing is literally slither wing.

Chiohauhane can be taken literally as 地を這う羽 chi o hau hane (wings slithering on the ground).
