Did you know? Wurmple’s evolution into either Cascoon or Silkoon solely depends on a console gremlin that flips switches randomly. If Wurmple is not present in a Pokémon game, the console gremlin is fed to the bugs in the code, which is why games without Wurmple have more bugs! #pokemon #pokefacts!
