From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
Trevenant (Japanese: オーロット Ohrot) is a dual-type Ghost/Grass Pokémon introduced in Generation VI.
It evolves from Phantump when traded.
Biology
Trevenant is a slender brown tree that stands on six roots bent like spider legs. Its inner body is made up of black shadow, which is mostly covered by tree bark. There are two large, crooked horn-like gnarls on either side of its head, and another smaller gnarl on its forehead, with a tuft of green leaves in the middle and a large, menacing dark-red eye below them. Its two arms are held horizontally level, thin upper arms and thick forearms, like the body, is made up of black shadow covered with tree bark. Each upper arm has a single small spike or leaf. The forearms have a small branch immediately before a large cuff of green foliage at the wrist, connected to hands with three wooden pincer spikes for fingers.
Trevenant can use its roots as a nervous system, allowing it to control trees at will. It uses this ability to trap those who bring harm to the forest, so they can never leave. Despite its terrifying appearance and power, it is known to be kind toward the Pokémon that nest in its body. Along with its pre-evolution Phantump, Trevenant is the only known Pokémon
capable of learning Forest's Curse.
In the anime

Trivia
Origin
Trevenant is probably based on a kodama, the spirits of trees that sometimes inhabit old aged trees. Its stripe-like indentation on its body is very similar to shimenawa, used to mark spiritual habitation, who are often seen tied around kodama. It is also similar to other types of tree and nature spirits and deities, such as dryads. Trevenant's fierce protection of forests may be a reference to hamadryad, or could perhaps be a nod to the concept of protected sacred groves. Its single eye may possibly be a reference to cyclopes or the mountain dwelling yamawarawa. Its general body shape may have been based on the shape of the kanji 木, meaning wood or tree. Its Shiny coloration is based on the birch tree, known for its gray-and-white bark, with its leaves representing a tree in the autumn.
Name origin
Trevenant is a combination of tree (or possibly treant) and revenant.
Ohrot may be a combination of 大 ō (big) and ロット rot (as in a root rot).
