Overview

Sunflora are diurnal Pokémon; their activity follows the position of the sun in the sky. In the morning, Sunflora begin to stir, opening their petals and turning to face the rising sun. In the afternoon, when the sun is highest in the sky, they move around actively, almost frantically, following the sun as it travels. They slow down again at sunset; then, when night falls, Sunflora close their petals and become completely immobile, repeating the cycle again the next day. The color of a Sunflora’s petals also reflects the sun. The brighter and warmer the sunlight that shines on it is, the more vivid its petals become. Oddly, this reaction does not occur when Sunflora are exposed to artificial sunlight, instead only happening when they are bathed in the unfiltered, natural light of the sun. Sunflora subsist almost entirely on sunlight and water, photosynthesizing sugars to create energy for themselves. Though they acquire some trace nutrients by absorbing them from the soil that they tread upon, they obtain the bulk of their consumed energy from the sun.
