Whenever the shroomish is subjected to poison damage, it takes no damage and instead gains a number of hit points equal to the poison damage dealt. Effect Spore. Whenever the shroomish takes damage, it releases a cloud of spores. Creatures within 5 feet of the shroomish when this happens must succeed on a DC 12 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 minute. A creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success. If a creature succeeds on its save, it is immune to the effect spore of all shroomishes for 24 hours. ACTIONS Tackle. Melee Weapon Attack. +3 to hit, reach 5 ft., one target.

The shroomish releases spores that burst out in a cloud that fills a 10-foot-radius sphere centered on it. All creature of the shroomish's choice in that area must succeed on a DC 13 Constitution saving throw or be poisoned for 1 hour. If the saving throw fails by 5 or more, the target is also unconscious while poisoned in this way. The target wakes up if it takes damage or if another creature takes an action to shake it awake. A poisoned creature can repeat the saving throw at the end of each of its turns, ending the effect on a success. If the saving throw is successful or if the effect ends for the creature, it is immune to the Spore of all shroomishes (but not brelooms) for the next 24 hours.

Source “ Shroomish is a small pokémon similar to a mushroom. It has beady black eyes and a half-triangle-shaped mouth. Its upper body is beige with frilled segments along the bottom and a small opening at the top. There are green spots marking its upper body, while its lower body is completely green. It has small, round feet and no visible arms or hands. When it senses danger, it shakes its body and scatters toxic spores from the top of its head. These spores can make trees and weeds wilt and cause whole body pain if inhaled. Shroomish lives in forests that are damp. During the day, it hides under fallen leaves in the shade. It eats composted soil in forests, which is made up of fallen, rotten leaves. Sometimes they are orange instead of green. ” —Bulbapedia
