Pokédex entries

Darmanitan

Black	Its internal fire burns at 2,500° F, making enough power that it can destroy a dump truck with one punch.
White	When weakened in battle, it transforms into a stone statue. Then it sharpens its mind and fights on mentally.
Black 2 White 2	When one is injured in a fierce battle, it hardens into a stone-like form. Then it meditates and sharpens its mind.
X Omega Ruby	When one is injured in a fierce battle, it hardens into a stone-like form. Then it meditates and sharpens its mind.
Y Alpha Sapphire	Its internal fire burns at 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit, making enough power that it can destroy a dump truck with one punch.

Standard Mode

Sword	The thick arms of this hot-blooded Pokémon can deliver punches capable of obliterating a dump truck.
Shield	This Pokémon’s power level rises along with the temperature of its fire, which can reach 2,500 degrees Fahrenheit.

Zen Mode

Sword	Through meditation, it calms its raging spirit and hones its psychic powers.
Shield	When wounded, it stops moving. It goes as still as stone to meditate, sharpening its mind and spirit.

Galarian Standard Mode

Sword	On days when blizzards blow through, it comes down to where people live. It stashes food in the snowball on its head, taking it home for later.
Shield	Though it has a gentle disposition, it’s also very strong. It will quickly freeze the snowball on its head before going for a headbutt.

Galarian Zen Mode

Sword	Anger has reignited its atrophied flame sac. This Pokémon spews fire everywhere as it rampages indiscriminately.
Shield	Darmanitan takes this form when enraged. It won’t stop spewing flames until its rage has settled, even if its body starts to melt.
