Pokédex entries
What each game says about it, in the games' own words.
| Sun | It delivers headbutts with the water bubble on its head. Small Pokémon get sucked into the bubble, where they drown. |
| Moon | Despite what its appearance suggests, it cares for others. If it finds vulnerable, weak Pokémon, it protectively brings them into its water bubble. |
| Ultra Sun | It usually passes its time in the water. When its belly is full, it stores its subdued prey in the water bubble on its head. |
| Ultra Moon | It has a habit of storing things it values in its water bubble. If its Trainer doesn’t watch out, Araquanid will try to put them in its bubble! |

Official data here is present-day reference data from PokéAPI, not a snapshot of any one game's era — the Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived partway through the series, so a difference against an older game can belong to the series rather than to that ROM hack.
