"Not being annoying. […] Being sensible."
— Pokeweed to Hemlock about waiting for Sundew, The Poison Jungle

Pokeweed is a male LeafWing who was introduced in the prologue of The Poison Jungle as a PoisonWing. He helped orchestrate the Burning of Bloodworm Hive, along with Hemlock, Grayling, and Bryony. He currently resides on Pantala.

Description[]

Sundew describes Pokeweed as a big dragon.[1] He is about the same size as Bullfrog,[2] and has a slow, deep voice.[3]

Personality[]

Pokeweed is described as stoic and boring by Bryony, and annoying by Hemlock. He is noted to have a deep and slow voice and speaks lugubriously. He also tends to repeat his sentences but in a different format each time.[3] According to Sundew, he lives to destroy the HiveWings, and does not care much for his physical comfort.[4] Pokeweed radiates a distinct air of "slow and unimaginative,"[5] though Luna suspects that he may be braver and smarter than he looks, as he was able to explore the underground caves and memorize the way back all by himself.[5]

Biography[]

The Lost Continent Prophecy[]

The Poison Jungle[]

In the prologue, Pokeweed was reviewing the plan to burn down Bloodworm Hive, staring grimly off into space. He complained about Sundew not arriving to help and stated that maybe they should wait for her arrival. He seemed to be very smug about showing Grayling what plants to use for the burning before Bryony volunteered to show him instead.

The Dangerous Gift[]

Pokeweed was mentioned in one of Snowfall's visions by Hemlock, noticing how both SilkWings and LeafWings were being controlled. He also looked for humans deeper in the caves.

The Flames of Hope[]

Pokeweed was venturing in the underground caverns away from the rest of his group in search of food. Luna sensed him flying towards them, and then he pinned Cricket down and tried to make her unconscious by strangling her. Pokeweed then stopped after he was told that they were friends of Sundew, and said that they should have told him earlier. He brought Luna's group to Hemlock further in the cavern.

Relationships[]

Bryony[]

The two are somewhat competitive with each other, even in stealth operations. Pokeweed's opinion of Bryony is not known, but he attempts not to notice her, shown when both Hemlock and Pokeweed ignored her about the greenhouses.[3]

Grayling[]

Pokeweed seemed eager to show off the plants for burning to the SilkWing.[3]

Hemlock[]

Pokeweed doubted Hemlock's plan, and expressed that he would rather wait to get extra help from Sundew. He mentions she would be able to grow the flaming vines much faster.[3]

Sundew[]

Pokeweed thinks highly of Sundew, stating multiple times that they should wait for her before implementing the plan.[3]
