Cocoon Pokémon

Almost incapable of moving, this Pokémon can only harden its shell to protect itself from predators.
Able to move only slightly. When endangered, it may stick out its stinger, and poison its enemy.
Although it is a cocoon, it can move a little. It can extend its poison barb if it is attacked.
From this form, it will grow into an adult. As its body becomes softer, the external shell hardens.
Nearly incapable of movement, it leans against stout trees while waiting for its evolution.

Kakuna is a yellow, cone-shaped cocoon Pokémon. Kakuna has a dome-shaped head, and black, triangular eyes. When a Kakuna comes close to evolving, its body gives off heat that makes it warm to the touch.
Kakuna is usually only able to harden its shell in order to defend itself. However, Kakuna is capable of moving its poisonous barb if a situation calls for it.
Kakuna mostly stay still, and wait for evolution often hanging from tree branches by long strands of silk.
Kakuna nest in forests, and misty wooded areas. Occasionally they will also nest at the mouths of tunnels, and caves.
Kakuna normally doesn't eat anything. It endures hunger until it is time for Kakuna to evolve.
Its design appears to be based on a chrysalis or the pupa stage of a bee.
Kakuna's name is just a corruption of the word cocoon.
