#034Overview
Budling's strongest base number is not an attacking stat but 52 SpD. Spe stands at 45, Atk at 44, and the entire spread totals 255. Its learnset starts with Speed Rush and Tackle, adds Grass damage at level 10, and introduces recovery early through Energy Absorb, which restores 20% max HP and one Ultimate Energy. Seed Bomb later gains a Growth stack, while Thorn Pierce has +1 Priority. Budling is available as a wild encounter in Verdant Valley and through its listed eggs. Florawn is the level-35 evolution, costing ten Evolution Stones and ten Grass Element Stones.
Obtain route
Verdant Valley supplies Budling's documented wild encounter route. The egg-hatch card counts four sources and specifically names Budling's Egg for normal eggs and Budling's Shiny Egg for shiny eggs. Either card leads to the first member of the Grass line shown in the GCZ entry.
Budling has no incoming evolution row; the sequence begins with Budling before Florawn and Silvanarch. Accordingly, acquisition centers on the Verdant Valley listing or the egg sources rather than evolution from another form. Once obtained, its 255 total stats and recorded learnset belong to this base stage, while level 35 concerns the next form instead.
Evolution cost
At level 35, Budling evolves into Florawn after receiving 10 Evolution Stones and 10 Grass Element Stones. This is the only outgoing step from Budling itself.
Florawn continues to Silvanarch at level 90, where the required payment becomes 30 Evolution Stones and 25 Grass Element Stones. Read together, the rows define a three-stage progression beginning with Budling; its base-stat total is 255, compared with Florawn's 362 and Silvanarch's 510.
Level skills
Speed, recovery, and physical Grass attacks shape the progression, with Seed Bomb adding special damage and Growth before higher-level priority and Leech options appear.

Species values

| HP | 42 |
| ATK | 44 |
| SPA | 35 |
| DEF | 37 |
| SPD | 52 |
| SPE | 45 |

Element multipliers
Grass attacks double against Ground, Light, Rock, and Water and are halved by five types. Budling likewise has five defensive weaknesses, while Electric, Ground, Light, Rock, and Water deal only 0.5x.
Team decision
Budling fits if you want to begin the Budling–Florawn–Silvanarch line from its first stage. Energy Absorb provides both HP and Ultimate Energy, Seed Bomb adds Growth, Thorn Pierce supplies priority, and Leech Seed applies Leech. The tradeoffs are visible in the numbers: the total is 255, SpA is only 35, and the matchup table lists five weaknesses. Its eventual 135-Power Thorn Dash also returns 25% of dealt damage to Budling, so that attack carries an explicit cost.
