Metapod is a Bug-type Pokémon. It evolves from Caterpie at level 7 and evolves into Butterfree at level 10.

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.
