Pokédex entries

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

Sun	When it finds a trace of its prey, it patiently stakes out the location...but it’s always snoozing by nightfall.
Moon	It adores having Rattata and Raticate for dinner, but as it’s diurnal, it never encounters them. This Pokémon boasts incredible patience.
Ultra Sun	Although it wasn’t originally found in Alola, this Pokémon was brought over a long time ago when there was a huge Rattata outbreak.
Ultra Moon	Patient by nature, this Pokémon loses control of itself and pounces when it spots its favorite meal—Rattata!

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.
