Mayflitt is a Bug/Fairy Pokémon. It evolves from Pupamor at level 12, which evolves from Larvly at level 8. If its evolution is delayed to level 20 or later, Pupamor will instead evolve into Cupire.

Dex info

  • Called 'the Luvdisc of the air', Mayflitt are known to pair up and swarm in the spring. They're so numerous that they are sometimes considered a nuisance.
  • Its pleasant aroma is believed by some to bring love. Its wing powder has even been packaged by scam artists as a love potion.

Origin

  • Mayflitt is a fairy-like insect with inspiration from several types of insects, particularly the march fly or lovebug and the subimago of the mayfly. The mayfly is known to be unique among insects in that it has a sexually immature winged stage called the subimago before its fully adult stage, the imago. Its eyes represent big sparkling 'anime eyes'.
  • etymology: mayfly (a small flying insect) or May (a month associated with spring and romance) + flitter (light flapping of wings).

Moveset

Mayflitt's moveset includes moves like Charm, Fairy Wind, Sweet Kiss, Sweet Scent, Sleep Powder, Attract, Silver Wind, Aromatherapy, U-Turn, Rage Powder, Bug Buzz, Hurricane, Quiver Dance, and Dazzling Gleam among others.

It may learn Leech Life and Draining Kiss but Cupire can take better advantage of those moves.

Trivia

  • Mayflitt was formerly a first stage Pokémon that evolved directly into an early version of Cupire. The entire evolution line was overhauled several years later to incorporate Larvly and Pupamor, as well as a branched evolution. This was done to more closely reflect the life cycle of a lovebug but also to incorporate a 'secret evolution' into a mosquito.
