Generation VII

Sun

It protects its plump posterior with the bones of prey it has consumed. As it grows, it replaces the bones.

Moon

It can’t fly yet and must wait until its wings have developed more. Since it’s still at a playful age, it hops around friskily.

Ultra Sun

Mandibuzz gives it the bones it wears. Vullaby’s wings are short, so it can’t fly yet, but it jumps around, dreaming of wide open skies.

Ultra Moon

Its healthy appetite leads to visible growth spurts. It often has to replace the bones it wears as its size increases.

Generation VIII

Sword

It wears a bone to protect its rear. It often squabbles with others of its kind over particularly comfy bones.

Shield

Vullaby grow quickly. Bones that have gotten too small for older Vullaby to wear often get passed down to younger ones in the nest.
