Crystal:As soon as it rains, it closes its flower and hides in the shade of a tree to avoid getting wet.
Ruby, Sapphire:SKIPLOOM’s flower blossoms when the temperature rises above 64 degrees F. How much the flower opens depends on the temperature. For that reason, this POKéMON is sometimes used as a thermometer.
FireRed:It spreads its petals to absorb sunlight. It also floats in the air to get closer to the sun.
LeafGreen:The bloom on top of its head opens and closes as the temperature fluctuates up and down.
Emerald:It blossoms when the temperature rises above 64 degrees F. Because its flower’s blooming changes with the temperature, it is sometimes used as a thermometer.
Diamond, Pearl, Platinum:It blooms when the weather warms. It floats in the sky to soak up as much sunlight as possible.
HeartGold:The bloom on top of its head opens and closes as the temperature fluctuates up and down.

Scarlet:Skiploom enthusiasts can apparently tell where a Skiploom was born by the scent drifting from the flower on the Pokémon’s head.
