Pokedex Entries
| Game | Entry |
|---|---|
| Sun | It’s considered to be a good Pokémon for beginners because of its friendliness, but its disposition grows rougher as it grows up. |
| Moon | This Pokémon has lived with people since times long ago. It can sense when its Trainer is in the dumps and will stick close by its Trainer’s side. |
| UltraSun | As they develop, their disposition grows more violent and aggressive. Many Trainers find them too much to handle and abandon them. |
| UltraMoon | When it rubs the rocks on its neck against you, that’s proof of its love for you. However, the rocks are sharp, so the gesture is quite painful! |
| Sword | This Pokémon can bond very strongly with its Trainer, but it also has a habit of biting. Raising a Rockruff for a long time can be challenging. |
| Shield | This Pokémon intimidates opponents by striking the ground with the rocks on its neck. The moment an opponent flinches, Rockruff attacks. |
| Scarlet | This Pokémon is very friendly when it’s young. Its disposition becomes vicious once it matures, but it never forgets the kindness of its master. |
| Violet | This Pokémon travels in a pack with others until it grows up. When its mood turns sour, it starts striking the ground with the rocks on its neck. |
