Parasect (Japanese: パラセクト Parasekuto) is a Bug/Grass-type Pokémon introduced in Generation I.

Appearance[]

Parasect, like its pre-evolution Paras, is a crab-like Pokémon. Parasect has a large red, orange spotted mushroom on its back and six legs. Parasect's two front legs are larger than its other four, which are used to grip its prey.

Special abilities[]

Parasect can have two of the following abilities, either Effect Spore or Dry Skin. Effect Spore allows Parasect to have a 10% chance to paralyze, burn or poison a foe. Dry Skin allows Parasect to recover HP when it is raining and lose HP when it is sunny.

Evolution[]

Parasect is the evolved form of Paras as of level 24.

Trivia[]

  • The host mushroom on a Parasect's back causes it eyes to turn milk white due it being in a permanent possessed trance.
  • No other Pokémon have the same egg group combination as Paras and Parasect.
  • Some of its Pokédex Entries break the fourth wall by saying that it spores can be used as medicine in China.
  • In Generation I, Parasect, and its pre-evolution are the only known Pokémon to have a double weakness to Poison.
