Pokédex entries
What each game says about it, in the games' own words.
| Sun | Its actual appearance is unknown. A scholar who saw what was under its rag was overwhelmed by terror and died from the shock. |
| Moon | A lonely Pokémon, it conceals its terrifying appearance beneath an old rag so it can get closer to people and other Pokémon. |
| Ultra Sun | Although it’s a quiet, lonely Pokémon, if you try to look at what’s under its rag, it will become agitated and resist violently. |
| Ultra Moon | A gust of wind revealed what hides under this Pokémon’s rag to a passing Trainer, who went home and died painfully that very night. |

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.
