Pokédex entries
What each game says about it, in the games' own words.
| Black / X / Omega Ruby | It uses an up-tempo song and dance to drive away the bird Pokémon that prey on its flower seeds. |
| White / Y / Alpha Sapphire | Arid regions are their habitat. They move rhythmically, making a sound similar to maracas. |
| Black 2 / White 2 | When it moves rhythmically, it makes a sound similar to maracas, making the surprised Pokémon flee. |

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.
