Sprout Bug(小草虫)
Bug Grass Phase I Original Form
The more branches a fruit tree has, the easier it is to find them. They are often mistaken for unripe green grapes. Their skin is sticky, and they curl up into a ball and hang on the tree while sleeping. Many are often observed huddled together, currently presumed to be due to their fear of cold.

Summary
Xiao Caochong is a Bug/Grass-type support Pokémon whose ability ‘Floral Sprite’ grants the team a random Offering at the end of each turn. Its stats emphasize defense and support: HP 73, Physical Defense 50, Special Defense 57, and Speed 60 (moderately slow). Its movepool centers on Offering synergy, healing, damage reduction, and combo-boosting—lacking high-damage output moves, it fits best as a team support or attrition/disruption specialist.
