The Pokémon Company has shared special posts dedicated to Metapod: https://twitter.com/Pokemon/status/1671956224110198802 Did you know? The shell covering this Pokémon's body is as hard as an iron slab. Metapod does not move very much. It stays still because it is preparing its soft innards for evolution inside the hard shell.
