Pokédex entries

X
Omega Ruby
It does its best to be taken seriously by its enemies, but its glare is not sufficiently intimidating. Chewing on a leaf is its trademark.
Y
Alpha Sapphire
It does its level best to glare and pull a scary face, but it can’t help grinning if anyone pats its head.
Sun It grows up imitating the behavior of Pangoro, which it looks up to as a leader.
Moon There’s no point to the leaf in its mouth, aside from an effort to look cool. It’s mischievous, so it’s not well suited to inexperienced Trainers.
Ultra Sun It follows Pangoro around like a henchman. When Pancham makes a big mistake, its leaf gets taken away.
Ultra Moon It’s desperate to intimidate its opponents. Be nice and pretend to be scared if you catch it glaring at you intensely.
Sword It chooses a Pangoro as its master and then imitates its master’s actions. This is how it learns to battle and hunt for prey.
Shield Wanting to make sure it’s taken seriously, Pancham’s always giving others a glare. But if it’s not focusing, it ends up smiling.
