Pokédex entries

Black Since a broken tusk will not grow back, they diligently sharpen their tusks on river rocks after they’ve been fighting.
White Their tusks can shatter rocks. Territory battles between Fraxure can be intensely violent.
Black 2
White 2		 A broken tusk will not grow back, so it diligently sharpens its tusks on river rocks after the end of a battle.

Alpha Sapphire		 A broken tusk will not grow back, so it diligently sharpens its tusks on river rocks after the end of a battle.
Sword After battle, this Pokémon carefully sharpens its tusks on river rocks. It needs to take care of its tusks—if one breaks, it will never grow back.
Shield Its skin is as hard as a suit of armor. Fraxure’s favorite strategy is to tackle its opponents, stabbing them with its tusks at the same time.
Scarlet Because its tusks don’t grow back once they break, this Pokémon apparently won’t use them unless truly necessary.
Violet Fraxure uses its thick tusks to neatly cut prey into two portions—one to eat now and one to save for later.
