Pokedex Entries11 entries

Generation VII

Sun

It glides using its cape-like membrane. Electrical energy scatters from it, shocking its friends and foes alike.

Moon

It grills berries and bug Pokémon with electric shocks and makes a meal of them. It usually nests in the holes gouged in trees by Pikipek.

Ultra Sun

They store up electricity to fly through the air. When thunder cracks at night, sometimes there are almost enough of them to blot out the sky.

Ultra Moon

As it flies, it scatters electricity around, so bird Pokémon keep their distance. That’s why Emolga can keep all its food to itself.

Generation VIII

Sword

As Emolga flutters through the air, it crackles with electricity. This Pokémon is cute, but it can cause a lot of trouble.

Shield

This Pokémon absolutely loves sweet berries. Sometimes it stuffs its cheeks full of so much food that it can’t fly properly.
