Centiskorch (Japanese: マルヤクデ Maruyakude) is a dual-type Fire/Bug Pokémon introduced in Generation VIII. It evolves from Sizzlipede starting at level 28. Centiskorch is a centipede-like Pokémon with a mostly red and maroon body. Its abdomen features circular radiator patterns, and it has flame-like protrusions on its head and tail. Known for its aggressive nature, Centiskorch's body temperature can reach 800°C (approximately 1500°F), and it attacks by lashing its body like a whip. It also has a Gigantamax form, in which its body becomes longer, its abdomen turns yellow, and the flames on its head and tail grow larger and longer, with a body temperature exceeding 1000°C (approximately 1800°F). Gigantamax Centiskorch can use the exclusive G-Max Move G-Max Centiferno. Its design is likely inspired by centipedes, radiator coils, and the Japanese mythical giant centipede called Ōmukade.
