Caterpie is an insect-like Pokemon that looks like a caterpillar. It has a yellow belly and a tear-shaped tail. It has yellow rings along its body that look like an eye. The most noticeable thing about it is the red antenna on his head, which releases a nasty odor. It has four small feet with suction cups which help it to climb different surfaces.
