Evolution Chain
Pokedex Entries13 entries

Generation VII

Ultra Sun

Its arms and legs are weak, but when it rolls its ears up tight and then unleashes them with its full force, it can smash boulders to dust.

Ultra Moon

The reason it keeps one ear rolled up is so it can launch a swift counterattack if it’s attacked by an enemy.

Generation VIII

Sword

If both of Buneary’s ears are rolled up, something is wrong with its body or mind. It’s a sure sign the Pokémon is in need of care.

Shield

Buneary can attack by rolling up their ears and then striking with the force created by unrolling them. This attack becomes stronger with training.

Legends: Arceus

My hypothesis as to why Buneary rolls up its ears is that its hearing is far too keen. I surmise that the Pokémon protects its hearing by limiting the sound that may enter its ears.

Generation IV

Diamond

It slams foes by sharply uncoiling its rolled ears. It stings enough to make a grown-up cry in pain.

Pearl

When it senses danger, it perks up its ears. On cold nights, it sleeps with its head tucked into its fur.

Platinum

Its ears are always rolled up. They can be forcefully extended to shatter even a large boulder.

HeartGold, SoulSilver

You can tell how it feels by the way it rolls its ears. When it’s scared, both ears are rolled up.

Generation V

Black, White

Its ears are always rolled up. They can be forcefully extended to shatter even a large boulder.

Black 2, White 2

By extending its rolled-up ears and striking the ground, it can bound so high it surprises itself.

Generation VI

X, Omega Ruby

Its ears are always rolled up. They can be forcefully extended to shatter even a large boulder.

Y, Alpha Sapphire

When it senses danger, it perks up its ears. On cold nights, it sleeps with its head tucked into its fur.
