Swadloon is a round, yellow Pokémon inside of a cocoon of leaves, which it drapes around itself, and is able to see through a crescent slit in the leaves. Under its "blanket" are darker green limp leaves which trail under its body. The top of the cocoon has two crests connected joined together at the bottom to form a "v" shape, and appear to be the Pokémon's antennae. On its back are the veins of the leaf as well as its stumpy tail.

Trivia
- Swadloon's Defense and Special Defense stats drop when it evolves into Leavanny.
Origin
Swadloon is based on the caterpillar of the Epargyreus clarus during chrysalis. Epargyreus clarus fold leaves over themselves for shelter as they age and, when cocooning, eventually use silk to stick the leaves together and form its chrysalis. The appearance of Swadloon hiding in its blanket bears some resemblance to the stereotypical portrayal of people suffering from Hikikomori (acute social anxiety disorder) syndrome in Japanese media. Its evolution to Leavanny (whose Japanese name is 2 kana away from Hikikomori) being caused by happiness may also be a form of Aesop.
Name origin
Its name is likely a combination of 包む kurumu, to wrap up, and 繭 mayu, cocoon.
