Biology
Lombre is a bipedal plant Pokémon that is mostly green with some light blue markings. Its face, ears, arms, and back are light blue. It has stubby, round ears, large eyes with small pupils, and a red bill-like mouth. There is a large lilypad on its head, which has a notch in it and resembles a sombrero. Lombre has long arms with four red claws and a thumb on each hand and feet with three red claws and a toe. Its entire body is covered in a thin, slimy film that creates an unpleasant sensation when touched. Lombre is sometimes mistaken for a human child. In Kitakami, there is a legend that Lombre was once a mischievous child before being reborn as a Pokémon.
Lombre is a nocturnal Pokémon that sleeps on a bed of water grass during the day. Very mischievous, this Pokémon will tug on fishing lines from underwater and pop out to startle people. It feeds on aquatic moss that grows on rocks in the riverbed. Lombre prefers living in waterfronts that contain plenty of food. It tends to become nocturnal to avoid competition with bird Pokémon.
Prior to Generation V, Lombre and its evolutionary relatives were the only known Pokémon that could have Rain Dish as an Ability.
Evolution
Lombre evolves from Lotad and evolves into Ludicolo.

NPC appearances
Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team: Lombre hangs around Pokémon Square. Lombre appears to like its personality, as is shown through its decision not to evolve into the carefree Ludicolo. He is also present on the Hill of the Ancients to celebrate the victory of the fallen star being destroyed, and is playfully cornered by Blastoise and the other NPC characters while the player begins to vanish. After the game is completed, he gives the player access to Stormy Sea.
Pokémon Super Mystery Dungeon: Another Lombre appears as a resident of Serene Village.

Trivia
Lombre's evolutionary line has several unique attributes:
They are the only Pokémon with a dual Egg Group of Water 1 and Grass.
They are the only Pokémon that can have the Ability Rain Dish without it being their Hidden Ability.
They are the only Water-type Pokémon in the Grass Egg Group, and the only Grass-type Pokémon in the Water 1 Egg Group.
Origin
Lombre seems to be based on a lily pad and the kappa, a Japanese yōkai that has a water-filled dish on its head and a turtle-like beak. More specifically, it may be based on the shibaten, or "lawn tengu," kappa, some vintage figures of the child-like creature sporting a straw hat and overalls. It also resembles a stereotypical Mexican folk dancer or mariachi performer with its sombrero-shaped head, body markings that resemble a charro jacket, and its red beak that resembles a mustache.
Name origin
Lombre may be a combination of lotus, hombre (Spanish for man), and sombrero (Spanish for hat).
Hasubrero may be a combination of 蓮 hasu (lotus) and sombrero.
