Pokédex entries

X Omega Ruby	Its whiskers serve as antennas. By sending and receiving electrical waves, it can communicate with others over vast distances.
Y Alpha Sapphire	It uses its tail to absorb electricity from power plants or from outlets in houses, and then it fires the electricity from its whiskers.
Ultra Sun	It sneaks into people’s homes and steals electricity from their outlets. When your electric bill seems off, it’s the handiwork of this rascal.
Ultra Moon	Its upper whiskers are sensors that survey its surroundings. Its lower whiskers are organs that shoot electricity.
Sword	A Dedenne’s whiskers pick up electrical waves other Dedenne send out. These Pokémon share locations of food or electricity with one another.
Shield	Since Dedenne can’t generate much electricity on its own, it steals electricity from outlets or other electric Pokémon.
Scarlet	It’s small and its electricity-generating organ is not fully developed, so it uses its tail to absorb electricity from people’s homes and charge itself.
Violet	Dedenne emit electrical waves from the whiskers on their cheeks to communicate with each other. When low on electricity, they curl up and sleep.
