Do you think part of the reason it's called "faux" -mantis is because it's meant to look like a fakemon? It's definitely the most fake-looking pokémon -- I like to think it's on purpose.

Its an orchid mantis but in reverse. The "faux" is that its an non-insect imitating an insect. Fomantis is actually an orchid bud, but has leaves that are designed to work like sickle arms and wings of a mantis. It's evolution makes the idea more obvious.

Yeah I was surprised it's actually a grass type. I was going to attack it with a fire or flying type move, but then I realized that it's not a bug, so I attacked it with a fire or flying or ice type move!
