• Vullaby is a small, vulture-like Pokémon covered in brown feathers.
• It has a bare, pink head with a hooked beak and large eyes.

In Battle:

Interesting Facts:

• Vullaby is exclusively female, much like its evolved form, Mandibuzz.
• The cracked eggshell it wears is believed to be from a Pokémon it hatched from, symbolizing its infancy stage.
• Its design is inspired by the concept of a young vulture waiting to mature before it can fly effectively.
• Vullaby's protective nature and attachment to its eggshell are reminiscent of how young birds rely on their nests for safety.

• Moon: It can’t fly yet and must wait until its wings have developed more. Since it’s still at a playful age, it hops around friskily.
• Ultra-Sun: Mandibuzz gives it the bones it wears. Vullaby’s wings are short, so it can’t fly yet, but it jumps around, dreaming of wide open skies.
