Cutiefly

Cutiefly is a Bug/Fairy type Pokémon introduced in Generation 7. It is known as the Bee Fly Pokémon.

Cutiefly can detect the auras of living things, including people, Pokémon, and plants. They search out flowers by the color and brightness of their auras and then gather their nectar and pollen.

When living creatures are excited, it seems that their auras resemble those of flowers in full bloom. As a result, these Pokémon tend to gather near people or Pokémon feeling particularly happy or sad.

Pokédex entries

Sun It feeds on the nectar and pollen of flowers. Because it’s able to sense auras, it can identify which flowers are about to bloom.
Moon Myriads of Cutiefly flutter above the heads of people who have auras resembling those of flowers.
Ultra Sun Nectar and pollen are its favorite fare. In fields of flowers, it gets into skirmishes with Butterfree over food.
Ultra Moon Cutiefly can pick up the auras of living things. It skillfully reads those auras to predict its foes’ movements and make fools of them.
Sword Nectar and pollen are its favorite fare. You can find Cutiefly hovering around Gossifleur, trying to get some of Gossifleur’s pollen.
Shield An opponent’s aura can tell Cutiefly what that opponent’s next move will be. Then Cutiefly can glide around the attack and strike back.
