This is definitely just the Pokemon Stadium 3D model for a Kakuna using Harden edited into a photo.

Shiny Kakuna is green, though.

It's a butterfly chrysalis - possibly the Common Crow butterfly, Euploea core, or a close relative.

We do have a lot of those butterflies around so this is most likely correct! Thank you!

Can anyone tell me the difference between a Chrysalis and a cocoon?

To the best of my knowledge, a chrysalis is a butterfly/moth’s pupa, which is sometimes wrapped in a protective silk cocoon.

Thanks!

Entomology enthusiast here: cocoons are made of silk. Chrysalis aren't

Chrysalis IS the organism, cocoon is the wrapping around the organism.

It's an Iridescent Glint Beetle.
Smack it with some carrots to get free potions.

Looks like a Butterfly chrysalis, maybe a Common Crow if this site is right.

Chandalowe gets some hits in too!
Thats no common crow. Thats a marine crow, and once a marine always a marine. Hooah. Fun Fact the marine crow used to be a maggot.
