Generation III identity and base stats

Bellossom is Hoenn #091 and National #182. Its original Ruby/Sapphire typing is Grass. The picture and base stats describe its original Generation III form on Game Boy Advance. Later Fairy typing, stat increases and evolutions are excluded.

Base stats describe the species; level, IVs, EVs and nature determine an individual’s actual battle stats.

Original TMs are consumed after use; HMs are reusable and require the relevant badges for field use. The Lilycove Move Deleter can remove HM moves. Generation III assigns damaging moves by type: Normal, Fighting, Flying, Poison, Ground, Rock, Bug, Ghost and Steel use Attack; Fire, Water, Grass, Electric, Psychic, Ice, Dragon and Dark use Sp. Atk. Status moves remain status moves.

Egg moves and original move services

No Ruby/Sapphire Egg moves are recorded for this form.

The father passes eligible Egg moves and compatible TM/HM moves; both parents knowing an eligible level-up move can also pass it. The Fallarbor reminder does not teach arbitrary Egg moves. Emerald’s additional move tutors and Battle Frontier are absent from Ruby/Sapphire.

For this Pokémon’s types, damaging Grass moves are special. A move’s individual modern damage class must not replace the original type rule.
