Pokédex entries

What each game says about it, in the games' own words.

Black / X / Omega Ruby	When attacked, it escapes by shooting cotton from its body. The cotton serves as a decoy to distract the attacker.
White	They go wherever the wind takes them. On rainy days, their bodies are heavier, so they take shelter beneath big trees.
Black 2 / White 2 / Y / Alpha Sapphire	Perhaps because they feel more at ease in a group, they stick to others they find. They end up looking like a cloud.
Sun	When it finds others of its kind, they all stick together. When enough of them have collected, the mass resembles a cumulonimbus cloud.
Moon	Pillows and beds stuffed with cotton exhaled by Cottonee are soft and puffy, light and airy— altogether top quality.
Ultra Sun	To protect itself, it shoots cotton from its body. When it gets wet in the rain, its cotton grows moist and heavy, and it can’t move as well.
Ultra Moon	When attacked, it expels cotton from its body to create a diversion. The cotton it loses grows back in quickly.

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.
