Pokédex descriptions
Shield
Once each year, this Pokémon scatters its seeds. They’re jam-packed with nutrients, making them a precious food source out in the desert.
Sword
With noises that could be mistaken for the rattles of maracas, it creates an upbeat rhythm, startling bird Pokémon and making them fly off in a hurry.
Alpha Sapphire
Arid regions are their habitat. They move rhythmically, making a sound similar to maracas.
