Pokédex entries by game

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

Black · Y · Alpha Sapphire

It has black, cape-like fur that is very hard and decreases the amount of damage it receives.

White

It loyally follows its Trainer’s orders. For ages, they have helped Trainers raise Pokémon.

Black 2 · White 2 · X · Omega Ruby

This very loyal Pokémon helps Trainers, and it also takes care of other Pokémon.

Sun

Its dense black fur grows continuously. The high cost of keeping its hard fur properly groomed makes this a troublesome Pokémon to train.

Moon

This Pokémon obeys its master’s orders faithfully. However, it refuses to listen to anything said by a person it doesn’t respect.

Ultra Sun

The longer its black fur grows, the harder and more impervious it gets. Claws and fangs can’t easily penetrate it.

Ultra Moon

It has been living with people for so long that portrayals of it can be found on the walls of caves from long, long ago.

Sword

Herdier is a very smart and friendly Pokémon. So much so that there’s a theory that Herdier was the first Pokémon to partner with people.

Shield

The black fur that covers this Pokémon’s body is dense and springy. Even sharp fangs bounce right off.
