Rowlet Pokédex entries

GameEntry
Sun

This wary Pokémon uses photosynthesis to store up energy during the day, while becoming active at night.

Moon

Silently it glides, drawing near its targets. Before they even notice it, it begins to pelt them with vicious kicks.

Ultra Sun

It sends its feathers, which are as sharp as blades, flying in attack. Its legs are strong, so its kicks are also formidable.

Ultra ♂oon

It feels relaxed in tight, dark places and has been known to use its Trainer’s pocket or bag as a nest.

Sword

At a distance, it launches its sharp feathers while flying about. If the enemy gets too close, Rowlet switches tactics and delivers vicious kicks.

Shield

During the day, it builds up energy via photosynthesis. At night, it flies silently through the sky, on the prowl for prey.

Legends Arceus

Flies noiselessly on delicate wings. It has mastered the art of deftly launching dagger-sharp feathers from those same wings.
