Pokédex entries

What each game says about it, in the games' own words.

X / Omega RubyCamouflaged as rotten kelp, they spray liquid poison on prey that approaches unawares and then finish it off.
Y / Alpha SapphireIt looks just like rotten kelp. It hides from foes while storing up power for its evolution.
Ultra SunIt vanishes into seaweed and remains perfectly still to avoid attacks from large Pokémon. Rotten seaweed is its main food source.
Ultra MoonIt’s not good at swimming, so it clings to the seaweed. In the Alola region, it’s often found near Dhelmise.

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.
