Pokédex entries
What each game says about it, in the games' own words.
| Sun | Its quick movements confuse its enemies. Well equipped with claws and fangs, it also uses the sharp rocks in its mane as weapons. |
| Moon | When properly raised from a young age, it will become a trustworthy partner that will absolutely never betray its Trainer. |
| Ultra Sun | The sharp rocks in its mane can cut like knives. Lycanroc wears its prey down by degrees before finishing them off. |
| Ultra Moon | The rocks in its mane are sharper than a knife. Fragments that break off are treasured as good luck charms. |

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.
