Charjabug is a Bug/Electric type Pokémon introduced in Generation 7.

Charjabug stays perfectly still in preparation for Evolution, and often spends time with its body half-buried in the earth. Charjabug is able to store up electricity. It can store enough power to run a household for a whole day. The power it stores can be provided to other Pokémon, so it can also serve as a battery!

Charjabug evolves from Grubbin and evolves into Vikavolt.
