Game data

Pokédex entries

Flapple

This Pokémon was unavailable prior to Generation VIII.
Generation VIII Galar #206 Sword It ate a sour apple, and that induced its evolution. In its cheeks, it stores an acid capable of causing chemical burns. Shield It flies on wings of apple skin and spits a powerful acid. It can also change its shape into that of an apple.

Gigantamax Flapple

This Pokémon was unavailable prior to Generation VIII.
Generation VIII Galar #206 Sword Under the influence of Gigantamax energy, it produces much more sweet nectar, and its shape has changed to resemble a giant apple. Shield If it stretches its neck, the strong aroma of its nectar pours out. The scent is so sickeningly sweet that one whiff makes other Pokémon faint.
