Biology
Vibrava is a dragonfly-like Pokémon. It has a small head with two yellow antennae and green bulging eyes with black oval-shaped pupils. Its mouth has two large white teeth protruding from each side. It has a skinny yellow body, four skinny black legs with slender feet, and four green, rhombus-shaped wings with black edges. There are similarly-colored rhombus shapes at the end of its tail.
Vibrava’s wings are not fully developed, so it is unable to fly very far. However, it is able to create vibrations and ultrasonic waves with its wings. Humans get headaches from these waves. After causing the prey to faint, as a saprotroph, it spits stomach acid to melt its prey before consumption. It continues this eating process every day to help its wings grow. Vibrava calls the desert home and is also known to preserve its captured prey in the desert’s hot sands.
In the anime
Major appearances
Multiple Vibrava made their main series debut in Beg, Burrow and Steal. Dozens of Trapinch were seen evolving into them at an underground lake. Team Rocket attempted to steal the Vibration Pokémon despite the fact the idea Meowth had of using their previous forms as nutcrackers was now foiled.
In Making Battles in the Sand!, Goh caught a Vibrava when he investigated a sandstorm in Mauville City. It has since made further appearances in Pokémon Journeys: The Series.
Minor appearances
A Coordinator’s Vibrava appeared in Harley Rides Again.
In A Relay in the Sky!, a Trainer’s Vibrava competed in the Pokémon Sky Relay. It was in a team also consisting of Ninjask and Shedinja.
In Securing the Future!, a Vibrava joined the rest of Alola in showering Necrozma with light so it could return to its normal form.
