The Story

What the Pokédex says

  • Legends: Arceus

    Once the fruit growing alongside the main body is large and plump, Cherubi will use the nutrients within to evolve. The fruit then detaches, becoming nourishment for other creatures.

  • Shield

    The deeper a Cherubi’s red, the more nutrients it has stockpiled in its body. And the sweeter and tastier its small ball!

  • Sword

    It nimbly dashes about to avoid getting pecked by bird Pokémon that would love to make off with its small, nutrient-rich storage ball.

  • Alpha Sapphire

    It evolves by sucking the energy out of the small ball where it had been storing nutrients.

3 more entries from older games
  • Omega Ruby

    Sunlight colors it red. When the small ball is drained of nutrients, it shrivels to herald evolution.

  • White 2

    The small ball is not only filled with nutrients, it is also tasty. Starly try to peck it off.

  • Diamond

    The small ball holds the nutrients needed for evolution. Apparently, it is very sweet and tasty.
