Free Grubbin coloring pages: 25 printable PDF designs featuring the burrowing Bug-type Pokemon in portrait, action, and hand-drawn styles. Each page can be downloaded as a PDF to print or colored online in the browser.

Grubbin is a Bug-type Pokemon introduced in Generation VII, known in the Pokedex as the Larva Pokemon. It measures about 1 foot 4 inches tall and weighs roughly 9.7 pounds, with a white segmented body, two yellow spots on its sides, and large yellow mandibles tipped in reddish-orange. Its signature Ability, Swarm, boosts the power of Bug-type moves when its HP runs low, and in the games, its sturdy jaw doubles as a digging tool and a natural weapon. Grubbin also spins a sticky silk thread from its mouth, which it uses to swing between tree branches, and it is drawn to power plants and substations because of its attraction to electricity. It evolves into Charjabug at level 20, then into the fully evolved Bug/Electric-type Vikavolt once exposed to a Thunder Stone or leveled up in a magnetic field.

This collection groups its 25 designs into classic portrait pages, ready-to-print pages, hand-drawn sketch styles, and pages that show Grubbin in action, giving colorists a full range of ways to bring this Bug-type larva to life. The full lineup sits within the site’s broader Pokemon coloring pages collection.

What Is Inside This Collection

The 25 Grubbin pages are split into four natural groups based on pose, purpose, and style.

Classic Grubbin Portraits

The Grubbin, The Grubbin Pokemon, The Pokemon Grubbin, Pokemon Grubbin, Grubbin Pokemon, Grubbin from Pokemon, Drawing Grubbin from Pokemon, Character Grubbin, and Grubbin Character present the larva Pokemon in simple standing poses with clear outlines. White base tones with light gray shading work well for the body, saving yellow for the side spots and mandibles.

Ready-to-Print and Download Pages

Print Grubbin, Grubbin to Print, Grubbin to Download, Grubbin to Color, Grubbin Free, Grubbin for Kids, and Grubbin Pictures are simplified, larger-outline designs built for quick printing sessions. These work well with a limited three-color palette, white, yellow, and reddish-orange, for younger colorists working fast.

Grubbin’s Signature Sketch Styles

Grubbin Art, Grubbin Adorable, Grubbin Cartoon, Grubbin Drawing, Grubbin Strokes, and Grubbin Release Silk lean into looser linework and the character’s silk-thread ability. The Release Silk page in particular pairs well with a light gray or pale blue for the sticky thread strands, keeping them visually distinct from the body.

Grubbin in Action

Grubbin Happy, Grubbin Holding a Knife, and Grubbin Pick up Trash show the character mid-activity. The Holding a Knife page ties back to Grubbin’s Pokedex trait of using its jaw as both a tool and a weapon, so coloring the mandible in its usual reddish-orange keeps the connection to the source material clear.

What Grubbin Coloring Pages Do

Fine motor development. The American Academy of Pediatrics identifies fine motor skill development as a core benefit of structured coloring for children ages 2 through 7. Grubbin’s small mandibles, segmented body lines, and side spots give young colorists repeated practice with compact, precise shapes.

Recognizing a franchise favorite. Because Grubbin comes from a video game many families already know, coloring it gives children a low-pressure way to connect an activity they enjoy, coloring, with a character they already recognize from Pokemon games, cards, or shows.

Anxiety reduction through focus. A 2005 study in the Art Therapy Journal documented measurable reductions in anxiety following structured coloring sessions. The repeated body segments and thread patterns across the Grubbin pages give children an easy, low-stakes rhythm to settle into during that focused time.

Color-matching practice. Working out where the white body ends, and the yellow side spots and mandibles begin, gives children practice comparing shades side by side. This skill carries over into other observational drawing and coloring work.

How to Color Grubbin Pages Well

  • Body: Base the segmented body in White or a very pale Gray, keeping the surface mostly flat and clean to match Grubbin’s smooth larval shell.
  • Side spots: Color the two nub-like spots on each side in Golden Yellow, the same tone used for the mandibles, to tie the small details together.
  • Mandibles: Fill the large jaw shapes in Yellow Orange, then add a Burnt Orange or Red Orange tip along the very edge where the mandible curves to a point.
  • Eyes: Fill the eyes in solid Black with a small White highlight dot near the top to keep them from looking flat.
  • Head structure: Shade the brown ridge above the eyes in Sepia or Raw Umber, keeping it a shade or two darker than the body for contrast.
  • Silk thread (on Release Silk pages): Use a light Gray or pale Sky Blue for the thread strands so they read as separate from the solid-colored body.
