Biology
Flabébé is a small Pokémon with a white upper half and a green lower half. It has beady eyes, a pink blush mark on each cheek, long, notched ears, and a small, pointed nose. On top of its head are several spheres of pollen that form a crown. It has stubby arms and a tail, but no visible legs. Flabébé is a female-only species with no male counterpart. It is one of the shortest and lightest Pokémon in existence.
Flabébé is usually seen holding the yellow stigma of a flower, called a “Fairy Flower” in the anime. The flower has three stamens and rounded petals that can be red, yellow, orange, blue, or white. It also has a short green stem with three small leaves. Its crown is made from the flower's pollen, which has healing properties. Flabébé can control and draw power out of the flower but is unsafe without it. However, it will continue searching until it finds a flower that it likes. The anime has shown that if one of the petals on a Flabébé's flower falls off, it will be unable to float around. According to Professor Oak's Pokémon Holo Caster and Gurkinn in A Festival Reunion!, the White Flower Flabébé is rare and difficult to find.

Trivia
- Flabébé is the first original Fairy-type Pokémon in the National Pokédex, as Clefairy was not a Fairy type between Generation I and Generation V.
- Flabébé is the only Pokémon with a diacritical mark in its English name.
- In the Battle Chateau, Baroness Francine's Flabébé uses the cry of Floette.
- In Generation VI, as only Red, Yellow, and Blue variants of Floette could be caught in the Friend Safari, it was impossible to obtain a White or Orange Flower Flabébé with Symbiosis. This Ability became available for all forms of Flabébé in Generation VII via SOS Battles.
Origin
Flabébé appears to be based on fairies and nymphs, in particular Antheia due to its flower wreath-like "crown" upon its head, as well as possibly Chloris. It may have also been inspired by the concept of insect pollination, considering its small stature and grasp upon the flower's female organ, the stigma.
Name origin
Flabébé may be a combination of フラワー flower and bébé (French for baby).
