Mosliquo

Mosliquo is a dual-type Bug/Water Pokémon.

It evolves from Aqlarva starting at level 36.

Physiology
Mosliquo is a Pokémon based on an adult mosquito. It has a large blue abdomen with black in the middle, four black legs, two of which act as "arms", a black and dark blue thorax with a dark blue "belt" connecting the thorax with the abdomen, two white wings with an oval-shaped dark blue marking near the tip of each, and its round black head has two dark blue antennae, two green eyes with black pupils, and a dark blue proboscis.

Gender Differences
None.

Special Abilities
Mosliquo use their long mouth-parts to collect bacteria in clean water as food, and in place, suck in water. To excrete this water without throwing away the nutrients it needs from the bacteria, Mosliquo has a filter organ in its abdomen, which can be used as a natural water gun. Its water should never be consumed by any humans or other Pokémon, as it can cause illness. Some Mosliquo consume fruit instead, and they ferment inside their abdomen, which is turned into fine wine.

Behavior
Mosliquo sips clean water from swamps and rivers using their long mouth parts. Some Mosliquo also consume fruits; they ferment inside its abdomen and become fine wine.

Habitat
Mosliquo, long escaping their water habitat, still fly around swamps to feed on growing bacteria, and to lay eggs. Wild Mosliquo are found by Surfing in the Tropic Jungle, in the Tropic Cave and on Route 21.

Shiny Coloration Differences
For Shiny Mosliquo, the blue turns a somewhat pale cyan, the eyes turn yellow and the indigo turns blue-green.
