Pokedex 049, Venomoth
We all remember our hero, the All Terrain Venomoth.
I think we now have the technology to admit that Venomoth was always fluffy and deserves better textures btw and that GameFreak is a coward if they don't update this.
I just like moths a lot.

Dragonite Facts
(Art by m0kuz0 on Twitter)
-The scientific name for Dragonite is "Serpenta Dracomarita" which roughly translates to "Dragon-seafaring serpent"
-Despite having limbs, Deragonite is still classified as a serpent due to Dratini and Dragonair. Biologically speaking, they seem to be both Serpents and Wyverns
-Because of its many stories of Dragonite saving sailors from shipwrecks, Dragonite has been nicknamed "The sea Guardian" or "Guardian of the Sea" depending on where you're from
-Dragonite don't have many living relatives, but a their closest living relative would be Milotic (it's not even that close though)
-Dragonite are so rare in the wild because they make their homes on small islands in the middle of the oceans where storms are high and the tides are rampant. They live with other members of it's line
-Dragonite are omnivores and primarily eat fruits and fish
-Dragonite are very fond of shiny objects and are known to collect them. In places where Dragonite live, there's often hoards of treasures that they have found

-Researchers still struggle to understand how Dragonite can fly so well, as their wings would be too small to lift their heavy bodies. However, Dragonite continue to fly due to A) they're wings are stronger than they look B) they do not care for what us meager humans think
-Dragonite are known to get into viscous fights with Kingdra, most often started by the Kingdra's doing
-Due to being dragons, Dragonite don't like the cold at all
-Due to Dragonite being the only naturally occurring Dragon types in Kanto, they're highly praised there, and it's where many of their myths originate
-While Dragonite are naturally found in aquatic environments, they do completely okay on land. Researchers think that the reason Dragonite stay so close to the water is so they can have easier access to fish and Dratini and Dragonair, who spend a lot more time in the water the Dragonite
-Dragonite will shed their scales quite often. Due to Dragonite'a rarity, their scales are highly sought after
