Pokédex entries

X Omega Ruby	It sends a soothing aura from its ribbonlike feelers to calm fights.
Y Alpha Sapphire	It wraps its ribbonlike feelers around the arm of its beloved Trainer and walks with him or her.
Sun	Its ribbonlike feelers give off an aura that weakens hostility in its prey, causing them to let down their guard. Then it attacks.
Moon	When this Pokémon sights its prey, it swirls its ribbonlike feelers as a distraction. A moment later, it pounces.
Ultra Sun	Once a fight breaks out, it will unflinchingly charge at dragon Pokémon that are many times larger than itself.
Ultra Moon	Sylveon wraps its ribbonlike feelers around its Trainer’s arm because this touch enables it to read its Trainer’s feelings.
Sword	By releasing enmity-erasing waves from its ribbonlike feelers, Sylveon stops any conflict.
Shield	There’s a Galarian fairy tale that describes a beautiful Sylveon vanquishing a dreadful dragon Pokémon.
