| White | They stick their spikes into cave walls and absorb the minerals they find in the rock. |
| Black 2 / White 2 / Y / Alpha Sapphire | It absorbs the iron it finds in the rock while clinging to the ceiling. It shoots spikes when in danger. |

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.
