Lileep

Lileep appeared in 2002 video game called Pokémon Ruby & Sapphire. Lileep is a Sea Lily Pokémon. Clinging to an undersea rock, Lileep waits patiently for food to drift by and then it pounces! It stays in the same place no matter how strong the water current is.

Lileep is a somewhat plant-like Pokémon with eight dark-tipped, pink tentacles protruding from an opening on top of its head. Inside the pitch black opening are two glowing, yellow eyes. The remainder of its head is purple with yellow eyespots resembling targets. The head is connected to the body by means of a yellow stem. The body itself is purple and semi-spherical. Four stubby roots anchor this Pokémon firmly to the rocks of its home on the sea floor.

In ancient times, it lived in warm seas. It waves its tentacles around to disguise itself as seaweed in order to attract prey, which is swallowed whole after being entangled. Lileep has been extinct for 100 million years, but specimens can be revived from Root Fossils.
