Biology

It can stretch its arms to punch from farther away, jump around to close the distance, and spread spores from the seeds on its tail to incapacitate opponents. Its technique is comparable to boxing.

Original Hoenn#035New Hoenn#036Paldea#107

It scatters poisonous spores and throws powerful punches while its foe is hampered by inhaled spores.
HeartGold · SoulSilver · Y
Its short arms stretch when it throws punches. Its technique is equal to that of pro boxers.
Diamond · Pearl · Platinum · Black · White · Black 2 · White 2 · X
The seeds on its tail are made of toxic spores. It knocks out foes with quick, virtually invisible punches.
FireRed · LeafGreen
It scatters spores from holes in the cap on its head. It loves warm and humid climates. It feeds on trees and plants in fields and forests.
Emerald
The seeds ringing BRELOOM’s tail are made of hardened toxic spores. It is horrible to eat the seeds. Just taking a bite of this Pokémon’s seed will cause your stomach to rumble.
Sapphire · Alpha Sapphire
BRELOOM closes in on its foe with light and sprightly footwork, then throws punches with its stretchy arms. This Pokémon’s fighting technique puts boxers to shame.
Ruby · Omega Ruby
