Meowscarada

History:

Its name comes from the English word "meow" (onomatopoeia of the cat's meow) and the Spanish word "mascarada" (masquerade, masked people's feast). Its Japanese name, "Masquernya," comes from the English word "masquerade" (masquerade ball) and the Japanese word "nyā" (Japanese onomatopoeia of the sound of a cat).

It was introduced into the ninth generation. It evolves from Floragato starting at level 36. It is the final form of Sprigatito.

Extra details:

Meowscarada appears to be based on a feline — possibly the Iberian lynx — and a magician, with its high Speed and Dark typing likely inspired by the sleight of hand needed to create a convincing act. Its category and signature move, Flower Trick, seem to be inspired by the magic trick of making flowers appear. Meowscarada's mask and ears are also reminiscent of the cap worn by jesters.

Appearance:

Meowscarada is a humanoid feline Pokémon with light green fur covering most of its body — stopping just above its long, dark green legs — and a short, fluffy tail. The fur is especially longer around its ears, thighs, and arms, the latter resembling poofy sleeves. Its face has lazy pink eyes and a small pink nose, and is covered in a four-pointed mask-like shape, with a pattern of three green diamonds on it. Each of its hands has three fingers tipped with green claws, as well as a pink paw pad. On its neck is a pink collar resembling flower petals. This collar holds together its cape, which grows from the leaves it had around its neck as Floragato. The cape is lined with reflective fur, is black on the outside and green on the inside, and splits into two near the base, with both parts of the cape ending in fleur-de-lis shapes. Meowscarada carries a four-petaled green flower, whose stem is hidden by the reflective fur on its cape, creating the illusion of floating. The flower can blossom into a round, pollen-filled flower bomb, with a two-tone green and black zigzag pattern on the outside, and six petals adorning the top. In a battle, Meowscarada uses skillful misdirection to stealthily plant these flower bombs onto various surfaces around its unaware foes before setting them off, catching their opponents off guard.

Personality

Meowscarada has a proud, showy personality; however, it is also sensitive and prone to jealousy. It can often be very attached to its Trainer, and it will become upset if its Trainer gives attention to other Pokémon. Meowscarada is the only known Pokémon capable of learning the move Flower Trick. She might look friendly but she can be letal if you let your guard down.

More details

This Pokémon uses the reflective fur lining its cape to camouflage the stem of its flower, creating the illusion that the flower is floating. With skillful misdirection, it rigs foes with pollen-packed flower bombs. Meowscarada sets off the bombs before its foes realize what's going on. She is also sneaky.
