Pokédex entries
What each game says about it, in the games' own words.
| Black / X / Omega Ruby | Its skin has a rubbery elasticity, so it can reduce damage by defensively pulling its skin up to its neck. |
| White | It immediately headbutts anyone that makes eye contact with it. Its skull is massively thick. |
| Black 2 / White 2 / Y / Alpha Sapphire | Proud of its sturdy skull, it suddenly headbutts everything, but its weight makes it unstable, too. |
| Ultra Sun | They move in small groups, walking around lazily. Anyone who makes eye contact gets smacked with a headbutt. |
| Ultra Moon | It stretches its saggy skin up to its neck to protect itself. The saggier their skin, the more respect they garner. |

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.
