Biology
A large, lumbering Pokémon, Appletun's evolution was induced by the Sweet Apple that it ate. It generates a very sweet nectar from its back, the scent of which lures bug Pokémon that it preys on. The loose patches of skin on its back are considered to be especially delicious and were once known to be peeled off and eaten as a snack by children.
Design & origin
Appletun appears to be based on the Lindwurm.
Forms
Gigantamax Appletun
When Gigantamaxed, Appletun is encased in a large hollow apple dripping with golden nectar. It is slightly slimmer; its head and neck poke out from the top, with the stem of the apple atop its head.
Its eyes no longer droop over the sides of its head, now standing upright. It looks identical to Gigantamax Flapple. Its signature G-Max Move is G-Max Sweetness.
