Pokédex entries
What each game says about it, in the games' own words.
| Black / X / Omega Ruby | Blades comprise this Pokémon’s entire body. If battling dulls the blades, it sharpens them on stones by the river. |
| White | They fight at Bisharp’s command. They cling to their prey and inflict damage by sinking their blades into it. |
| Black 2 / White 2 / Y / Alpha Sapphire | Ignoring their injuries, groups attack by sinking the blades that cover their bodies into their prey. |
| Ultra Sun | After shredding its prey, it sharpens its blades on a stone by the river. Each Pawniard has its own favorite sharpening stone. |
| Ultra Moon | It follows Bisharp’s orders to a tee when it attacks enemies. After slashing an opponent, Pawniard clangs both of its blades together. |

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.
