Pokédex entries by game

Descriptions recorded in these games. This list does not establish where the Pokémon can be caught or transferred.

Black

It makes a nest out of bones it finds. It grabs weakened prey in its talons and hauls it to its nest of bones.

White · Y · Alpha Sapphire

Watching from the sky, they swoop to strike weakened Pokémon on the ground. They decorate themselves with bones.

Black 2 · White 2 · X · Omega Ruby

They fly in circles around the sky. When they spot prey, they attack and carry it back to their nest with ease.

Sun

They adorn themselves beautifully with bones. This is supposedly an effort to attract males, but no male Mandibuzz have ever been found.

Moon

It circles in the sky, keeping a keen eye out for Pokémon in a weakened state. Its choicest food is Cubone.

Ultra Sun

It skillfully arranges the bones of its prey to construct its nest. Most of the bones are Cubone.

Ultra Moon

It’s always searching for food for Vullaby. When it finds a weak Pokémon, Mandibuzz swoops it right off to its nest.

Sword

Although it’s a bit of a ruffian, this Pokémon will take lost Vullaby under its wing and care for them till they’re ready to leave the nest.

Shield

They adorn themselves with bones. There seem to be fashion trends among them, as different bones come into and fall out of popularity.
