Cherubi (Pokémon)

Cherubi debuted in The Grass-type Is Always Greener!, under the ownership of Gardenia. It was first used in a battle against Ash. It faced off against Turtwig, and during the battle, Gardenia was able to learn quite a bit about Turtwig. Cherubi reappeared in The Grass Menagerie!, where it once again fought Turtwig during an official Gym battle. Its speed forced Ash to recall Turtwig for Staravia, after which Cherubi was defeated.

In Battling a Cute Drama!, Marilyn used a Cherubi in a battle against Dawn. It went up against Buneary, who it defeated. Later, it battled Brock's Sudowoodo, but this match was declared a tie by James, who was acting as referee.

Cherubi first appeared in Ring Around the Roserade I. Gardenia used a Cherubi alongside her Roserade in a Double Battle against Platinum's Prinplup and Ponyta. After Piplup evolved into Prinplup, Cherubi's Grass Knot became more effective against the heavier Pokémon, leaving the Penguin Pokémon in a difficult situation. However, Platinum took advantage of the cover that the knots gave and the holes that Roserade's poison whips created to deliver a finishing Blizzard that defeated both her Pokémon.

A Trainer's Cherubi appeared in Tackling Togekiss.

Gardenia's Cherubi was Hareta's first opponent in Win with Teamwork!!. It attempted to use Leech Seed on Hareta's Shinx, but was quickly felled by its Bite.

Cherubi is available in Sword and Shield, Brilliant Diamond and Shining Pearl, and Pokémon Legends: Arceus.

Cherubi appears to be based on a cherry, which are known to grow multiple fruiting heads, hence its appearance.

Cherubi may be a combination of cherry, cherubic (innocent or childlike), and ruby (a shade of red).

Cherinbo is a combination of cherry and 桜桃 sakuranbo (cherry).
