Varoom (Japanese:ブロロンBuroron) is a dual-typeSteel/PoisonPokémon introduced inGeneration IX.

Itevolves intoRevavroom starting atlevel 40.

Biology

Varoom is an inorganic, metallic Pokémon, said to be created when an unknownPoison-type Pokémon enters and possesses anunused engine at a scrap-processing factory. Its front has a protrusion tipped with a shape somewhat resembling a skull; this shape contains a hole that resembles a frowning mouth. Its two yellow eyes are located on the sides of its body, and on its top is a tall block extending towards the back, with four black stripes decorating it. Its rear has a long exhaust pipe, tipped with a purple stain.

Varoom attaches itself to rocks that resemble wheels. These rocks constitute Varoom's diet, as it feeds on minerals from the rocks and converts them into energy. Rather than moving on the ground, Varoom is able to levitate and fly around. Varoom is used byTeam Star as the rear wheels of theStarmobiles.

Varoom and its evolved form,Revavroom, are theonly known Pokémon capable of learning the moveSpin Out.
