Fomantis and Lurantis

Fomantis
The Sickle Grass Pokémon
Type: Grass
Official Registration #: 753
Entry: This small, bud-like pokémon is nocturnal in nature, largely because daylight leaves it largely defenseless. During the day, it hides in tall grasses and gathers sunlight for sustenance as it sleeps. However, because fomantis are by and large fragile pokémon, it never stays in the same spot as either it or other fomantis had rested the day before. Rather, every night, each fomantis becomes active, seeking out entirely different areas of refuge to settle into as soon as the sun rises. For the most part, fomantis can go completely undetected, but because of its subtle but enticing aroma, cutiefly have been known to gather around fomantis during the day, thus revealing sleeping fomantis to potential prey. Cutiefly, of course, don’t actually feed off fomantis; they simply enjoy fomantis’s scent … and are also generally vicious, vindictive pokémon.

Lurantis
The Sickle Grass Pokémon
Type: Grass
Official Registration #: 753
Entry: The evolved form of fomantis, by battle experience, when exposed to sunlight. Noted for its beauty (and highly fashionable “pants,” for that matter), lurantis are highly sought-after by collectors, even though it takes a lot of time and effort to maintain its signature vivid coloration. In the wild, lurantis give little thought to their own coloration, opting instead on perfecting their sickle-shaped petals. These petals, when properly honed, can fire beams of sunlight and slice effortlessly through predators that may have harassed them as fomantis … including and especially cutiefly.
