Other

• Sun: A bit of a dandy, it spends its free time preening its wings. Its preoccupation with any dirt on its plumage can leave it unable to battle.
• Moon: It throws sharp feathers called blade quills at enemies or prey. It seldom misses.
• Ultra-Sun: This narcissistic Pokémon is a clean freak. If you don’t groom it diligently, it will stop listening to you.
• Ultra-Moon: Supremely sensitive to the presence of others, it can detect opponents standing behind it, flinging its sharp feathers to take them out.
• Sword: It throws one knifelike feather after another at its enemies, and each one precisely strikes a weak point. These feathers are known as blade quills.
• Shield: It never slacks when it comes to the task of cleaning its feathers. Thorough preening keeps it looking spiffy and its blade quills nice and sharp.
• Legends-Arceus: Regularly basks in sunlight to gather power—presumably due to the frigid climate. Nonetheless, the edges of the blade quills set into its wings are keen as ever.
