Venonat and Venomoth

Venonat
The Insect Pokémon
Type: Bug/Poison
Official Registration #: 48
Entry: A large, mite-like pokémon native to dark forests. Its massive, red eyes function like radar devices and are capable of seeing through the densest fog and the darkest nights to locate the smallest prey. Likewise, its long antennae are capable of registering even the slightest hints of heat and vibration around it. Moreover, its thick, purple hair is coated with a potent venom capable of paralyzing prey on contact, and its fangs are sharp enough to deliver a killing blow and draw out blood instantly. And for the umpteenth time, despite the fact that it’s a purple bug-type with red eyes and long antennae, it is not in any way related to butterfree.

Venomoth
The Poison Moth Pokémon
Type: Bug/Poison
Official Registration #: 49
Entry: The evolved form of venonat, by battle experience. Also a highly aptly named pokémon, as with every flap of its wings, it lets loose a storm of poisonous dust that’s not only potent but also extremely difficult to remove. The color of its wings indicate what type of poison venomoth carries—be it caustic, a neurotoxin, or something else—but from the author’s personal experiences, he feels it’s safe to say that all of its possible colors indicate the fact that standing beneath a venomoth is a horrendous idea.
