Nightmare Budew

grasspoisonNightmare formUp to level 999

Nightmare Budew is Budew's Nightmare form, from the Nightmare World: darker, with 20% more health and move damage than a normal Budew, and able to grow all the way to level 999.

Awakening a Budew

Raise a Budew to 5★ and level 100, then Awaken it from its details window with 10 Nightmare Shards and 100,000 gold. It becomes Nightmare Budew (rank ☾1, level cap 200), and its Nightmare ranks take it up to 999.

Nightmare Budew doesn't defend any map of the Nightmare World: Awakening is the way to get one.

What changes

  • It keeps its genes, moves, traits and held item; holding its Mega Stone, it becomes a Nightmare Mega.
  • A Nightmare form doesn't evolve: evolve your Budew first if you want its next form.
  • It wears no costume.
  • In the Arena it fights at level 100 at most, with a normal form's stats.
  • A shiny can't become a Nightmare form: it Ascends instead.
