Pokemon Legends: Arceus Ultimate Wormadam Guide

In Pokemon Legends: Arceus, the player will join the Galaxy Expedition Team, also known as the Galaxy Team, to learn more about the Pokemon found in the Hisui region rather than participating in Pokemon Gym battles and subsequently becoming a Champion in a specific region. Finishing the Pokedex by catching and learning about each Pokemon species is one of the game’s main objectives.

This guide will discuss everything you need to know about Wormadam in Pokemon Legends: Arceus!

Wormadam

Wormadam, the 44th Pokemon in the Hisuian Pokedex, is a dual-type Bug-type Bagworm Pokemon with a black body, a pair of oval eyes with small black pupils, a pointed beak, and a long antenna on top of its head with a spiral tip. There are three Wormadam forms: Plant Cloak, Sandy Cloak, and Trash Cloak.

Wormadam’s Plant Cloak form is a Bug and Grass-type Pokemon with a green-tipped beak, a pair of large leaves resembling arm-like structures near its head, and a leafy coat with white flowers. According to its Pokedex entry in the game, this Wormadam’s cloak, made from plants, is now merged with its body, similar to fur or skin. This merging is suspected to be an effect of the energy involved in evolution.

Wormadam’s Sandy Cloak form is a Bug and Ground-type Pokemon with a brown-tipped beak, a pair of chained brown rocks resembling arm-like structures near its head, and a tan-colored, sandy cloak dotted with reddish-brown rocks. According to its Pokedex entry in the game, this Wormadam’s earthen skin is so hard that it has no problem repelling the peckings of a Starly.

Wormadam’s Trash Cloak form is a Bug and Steel-type Pokemon with a pink-tipped beak, dark pink ribbons that resemble arm-like structures near its head, and a pink garbage cloak resembling building insulation. According to its Pokedex entry in the game, it blends into its environment to be inconspicuous, which seems to be the best way to avoid being detected by predators.
