It stays mostly in dark, damp places, the preference not of the bug, but of the big mush­ rooms on its back.

Strategy Overview

Argh. This thing is probably one of the 5 worst fully-evolved Pokemon in the game. Definitely bottom 10. Very cool, however, and with Spore and Stun Spore, it can cause a few status ailments for support.
