Pokédex entries

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

SunIt is said to live in another world. The intense light it radiates from the surface of its body can make the darkest of nights light up like midday.
MoonThis Pokémon is said to be a male evolution of Cosmog. At the activation of its third eye, it departs for another world.
Ultra SunSometimes the result of its opening an Ultra Wormhole is that energy and life-forms from other worlds are called here to this world.
Ultra MoonIn writings from the distant past, it’s called by the name “the beast that devours the sun.”

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.
