These Pokémon prefer a tidy habitat. They are always sweeping and dusting, using their tails as brooms. |
| Ultra Sun | A clean freak that will not allow even the slightest mess, it uses its tail like a mop to thoroughly clean any and all filth. |
| Ultra Moon | When its tail has gotten dirty from self-cleaning or from cleaning its nest, Minccino spends a whole day washing its tail in clean spring water. |
| Sword | The way it brushes away grime with its tail can be helpful when cleaning. But its focus on spotlessness can make cleaning more of a hassle. |
| Shield | They pet each other with their tails as a form of greeting. Of the two, the one whose tail is fluffier is a bit more boastful. |
