Good morning to these little guys in particular!! They always come out first thing in the morning to sunbath before it gets too hot, and they look adorable

The Bug Out event has been announced to run between Apr12 at 10am until Apr17 at 8pm, local time.
Shiny Combee and Burmy have a higher chance of appearing, but other than that, there's no new Shiny spawns available.
Some new avatar items tho.

Has wormadam been reviewed yet?
(Mothim has already been done here.)
Burmy is a pretty fun concept. The line is based off bagworm caterpillars, which, as the name implies, build little cases around themselves using whatever materials they can find as a form of camouflage. Burmy's different cases don't affect anything at this stage, just changing depending on battle environment, but they come more into play with Wormadam later on.
Visually, I like the look of the different cases, but I find the body structure to be a bit weird, with a long structure coming off the top of the head and a vaguely beak-like mouth. It's one of those things where the body shapes start to become a bit too abstract for my taste.

As for the cases, I find myself liking the sandy cloak form the best. The plant cloak is fine but lacks a clear structure, and the trash cloak looks nice but doesn't really read as trash (plus the fact that it's insulation raises questions, like how you're able to get this form in PLA).
Wormadam is female-only, which is accurate to actual bagworms; the females remain wingless after pupating and stay in their cases, while the males become winged moths.
I do like Wormadam's design a lot more than Burmy's. The head structure looks less odd, the long pointed beak works a lot better especially with how it pokes out over the top of the casing, and they don't have the weird "legs" that the plant and trash Burmys had. Between the three, the trash is nicest visually but still kind of struggles conceptually, while the plant is strongest overall.
Wormadam also expands on the line conceptually; the cloak is now a permanent part of their bodies, and influences what typing they become—grass for plant cloak, ground for sandy cloak, and steel for trash cloak. I feel like the steel typing's a little out of place for fiberglass installation, but then again I'm not sure what type would make sense other than normal or something.
This mechanic is my only real problem with Wormadam—the idea is that the cloak becomes part of their bodies, but it still looks like it's just inside of a cloak. I wish that this could've been reflected in the designs more, like making the cloak cover the entire body so only the eyes poke out or something. Not a huge deal, just something that might've helped it out conceptually.
Anyway, overall, some great concepts here with decent designs. I'd honestly like to see more forms in the future; now that the games are more open-world, it would be neat to get a snow cloak form after battling in a wintery environment or something.

Wait I know. Peel burmy please. Free my man
Ok this is a fun one and i'm shocked you're the only person to ask.
so burmy is fairly well known. wormadam... unknown. so i made a speculative one.
Probably inaccurate, and likely changes depending on the worm, but i'm content.
but here's the crew, with more peeled:

Adaine, if she had a pokemon team. She's such a little guys guy now.
Burmy (Sandy Cloak Form) - to represent her dust mephits, The Dry Guys. I'm just in love with them.
Delphox - because it's very wizard vibes with that wand it uses, it has psychic powers and it's name is based on the ORACLE of Delphi.
Honedge - i mean, she uses her father's sword, it's a living cursed sword - it just makes sense to me.
Poliwhirl - The roundest frog pokemon I could find to represent boggy the froggy
Primeape - Mainly just for Adaine's Furious Fist, also it's a cute pomeranian looking thing just like moggy the doggy
Snubbul - Okay, here's the real Moggy substitute I came up with. It's small and angry, adorable as hell, and it's British just like Adaine is.
