Its back legs are long and powerfully-built for jumping.

The Water-type Pokémon Froakie is both light and strong, making it capable of jumping incredibly high. The Frubbles protect it from attacks. Froakie may appear absent-minded, but in truth it pays close attention to its surroundings at all times reacting to hits from opponents quite quickly.

When it evolves from Froakie, its jumping skill improves dramatically.

Frogadier can throw bubble-covered pebbles with precise control, hitting empty cans up to a hundred feet away. During battle, a Frogadier confounds its opponents by leaping about the ceiling or into trees. Frogadier also tend to be hit-and-run attackers, blindsiding opponents with swift strikes before darting away and shrouding themselves with foam.

Greninja, like its previous evolution, has the body style of a frog. In this form, it now resembles Toxicroak and has gained the appearance of a ninja. It is dark blue in color and has its tongue wrapped around its neck like a scarf instead of the bubbles found on Froakie and Frogadier.

A Greninja moves with the speed and grace of a ninja. They use swift movements to confuse their enemies while they slice them up with throwing stars made of compressed water. These throwing stars are sharp enough to split metal.

Greninja can sometimes be found hanging upside-down from tree branches or ceilings in the shadows, waiting for unwary foes to approach. They can propel themselves considerable distances by shooting jets of water at the ground beneath them (though they can often jump just as high, if not higher). Their blinding speed and incredible stealth have made Greninja popular starter Pokémon in the Kalos region for years.

Inteleon is a reptilian/amphibian Pokémon with a slender humanoid body shape. It has large yellow eyelids that are halfway closed over its yellow eyes to give it a sly, knowing expression. These eyes have special clear nictitating membranes (clear eyelids) that help it lock on to targets. A yellow frill extends from its head to the bottom of its neck. This frill expands into special wing-like membranes on its back that allow it to glide. Its arms are long and light blue, ending with large black hands. Its torso is a darker blue with a white diamond on the belly and black extending down from this diamond over the tops of the legs to give Inteleon the appearance of wearing a suit.

Though Inteleon prefer to work alone, they are not as asocial as Drizzile. They are rather task-oriented and do not let their personal opinions get in the way of whatever they are trying to accomplish.

Inteleon can shoot condensed water from its fingers to hit the blind spots of its opponents with a speed of Mach 3. Its back gliders allow it to glide and its tail hides a sharp knife.

Inteleon has many hidden tools within its body, and these are also enhanced by Gigantamaxing. The nictitating membranes on its eyes allow it to not only measure the distance to the target, but also detect temperature, air pressure, and even humidity. Inteleon is known to be a skilled sniper, able to easily hit a Berry that is rolling around over nine miles away.

Drizzile is a slim, blue bipedal lizard. Its head is round, and its nostrils are small and right above its mouth. Its green eyelids are half-closed over its small pupils, and two dark blue dots touch the outer edge of each eye. There is a thin black line from eye to eye.

Its belly is covered by a white teardrop shape, with a dark blue line lining the top. Its hands resemble mittens and are green. Its feet have only two toes each, which are all green, similar to its hands. Drizzile has a chameleon-like tail, with a dark blue dot at the end.

Drizzile are clever and intelligent fighters, yet also very lazy. In combat, Drizzile use water moisture from their palms to create water balloons. To keep enemies out of its territory, Drizzile lay traps around the area using these balloons due to their cautious nature. In fact, they may fill ditches with water and then overlay them with leaves and mud to make them appear solid; enemies trying to approach will try to walk over the ditches only to fall inside.

When hunting, nonetheless, they can turn from slothful to concentrated. Drizzile prefer to do as little work as possible in order to achieve the results they want, and are known to fool other Pokémon into doing tasks for them. They tend to be asocial and prefer to spend their time in the solitude of tree hollows and rock depressions.

Drizzile, despite their solitary and lazy nature they do like to be active when no one else is around or at night. Similar to a Greninja, Lickitung or Kecleon, they too can also use their tongues grab and restrain opponents.

Shuppet has an oddly napiform head, and its body is sheet-like and billowing. Although its original Pokédex color was black, it looks significantly more blue than black. It has light blue sclerae, dark blue irises and its pupils are yellow. Its body is dark gray. On the top of its head is a horn.

Shuppet feeds on negative feelings, making them beneficial to the trainer of this Pokémon. They congregate in large numbers under the eaves of the houses of people that hold long grudges.

Shuppet are usually found near where negative energy is found. They enjoy pulling pranks, feeding on the feelings of sorrow or disappointment that often follow. In battle, they utilize the negative emotions they collect by pulling off moves like Spite and Grudge. They, however, cannot tolerate light, hiding in the shadows during the day.

It is said that though Shuppet may appear evil because of their ability to feed on hateful emotions, they actually act out due to their loneliness. In fact, Shuppet actually can cause people to forgive others by literally consuming their grudges, and some even welcome them for this reason. Trainers who raise Shuppet assert that they can be kind and affectionate if cared for properly, even feeding on positive emotions rather than negative ones.

Lucario is a bipedal canid-like Pokémon. It has a long, distinctly canine snout. Though it has differences in appearance to Riolu, has having vibrant red eyes. Lucario has paws that has some type of resemblance tours a canid with each paw featuring three digits (not 4 digits). It has black fur covering its paws with a sharp, pointed white spike on each wrist similar tours riolu's ovel shape bumps. Lucario possess a third spike on the chest with same characteristics from the wrist spikes. Lucario's ears are longer since it evolved from Riolu and its muzzle, are longer and more angular in comparison to Riolu, its face has black fur markings on its face like riolu, but has several changes The "mask" also has an added upper stripe, but now the "mask" has an more dangerous and fierce look (the black "mask" covers the face with red eyes.

Additionally, Lucario's torso is covered in cream-ish yellow fur with thicker patches on the collar. When its mouth is open, four noticeable canine fangs, two on the top and two on the bottom, can be seen.

Lucario are very reserved, prideful and very serious Pokémon and also extremely loyal to their trainers, but they can be also friendly and cooperative with strangers and their Pokémon.

According to Gurkinn in "The Aura Storm!", when a Lucario Mega Evolves, the power of their aura and their battling instinct is brought to the limit, so much so that when in battle a Lucario only focuses on their opponents. When a Lucario loses control of its aura in this stage it'll go wild, berserk and relentlessly attack them.

In the wild, Lucario live in packs and they are primarily carnivores, though domesticated ones can be seen eating plant based foods as well as other human food such as chocolate.

Gallade somewhat shares a resemblance to its counterpart Gardevoir, but is different in many ways. The "skirt" of its pre-evolved form is now gone, revealing its legs, which are now much wider. The red horns that were on Gallade's head have moved down to its chest, like that of Gardevoir, but are much sharper. Its head is also similar to that of a Gardevoir, but instead it has a large gray-blue horn resembling a gladiator helmet. Another notable feature are the blade-like protrusions from its elbows, which Gallade can use as swords. It seems that the sharp protrusions can be extended and retracted when necessary.

Gallade are noble Pokémon that protect the weak and are talented at etiquette and "fencing", as well as they can do anything to defeat their enemies. They refuse to attack foes weaker than them unless they have some sort of handicap to make the fights fair. They hold honor in the highest regard and will graciously accept losses as long as they fought courageously.

Most Gallade live on treetops so as to jump down and fight with enemies or alert civilians.

They will fight most valiantly when defending someone they love. Due to their gallantry, Gallade will never slay foes in combat under normal circumstances. Should their honor be sullied, however, they may challenge offenders to duels to the death, going to great lengths to ensure that participants will be on even footing during such matches.

Its eyes have black sclera with yellow irises, and the end of its beak is red and has two nostrils. Its back is red and its wings are cape-like with green underside. Its wings have three claws and are connected to its tail. Its feet are yellow with three toes.

Despite its small size, Hawlucha is capable of fighting other Fighting-type Pokémon. It attacks by staying in their blind spots, such as from above, considering that they are also part Flying-type.

Hawlucha uses its small body frame to tire out larger opponents before finishing them with a flashy and stylish move. However, it tends to become a show-off after performing such a technique and most opponents take advantage of this to win.

Hawlucha in Paldea tend to be solitary, preferring quiet lifestyles and usually do not flock together. For this reason, they despise Primeape and frequently fight noisy groups of them.

Riolu is a black and blue, dog-like Pokémon nearing two and a half feet. Its appearance is similar to its evolved form Lucario, though there are some differences.

Riolu also have a black "mask" with two black appendages on either side, and red eyes.

Riolu are full of fun, energetic, and extraordinarily loyal Pokémon. Due to their extreme loyalty, some Riolu don't bond with just anyone, meaning despite patiently waiting for the right trainer they are known to be picky like Ash's Riolu. On the other hand, because of their type, they have extraordinary energy and endurance. They can also walk barefoot for a short time on a journey, and some of them can even run through the whole night or across canyons. Riolu are even to be able to react to aura from inside the egg before ever hatching and even emit it.

Keldeo tends to cross the world and often appears at beautiful watersides. Keldeo also travels in order to further improve itself through training.

Keldeo can shoot water from its hooves to propel itself; it uses this technique to “run” across bodies of water and jump high distances.

It is thought that when Keldeo becomes resolute, its body fills with power and it becomes swifter. The horn on its forehead is filled with hidden power. The horn can change into a sword that can cut through anything.

Long ago, a fire started in the Moor of Icirrus because of a war among people. In this fire Keldeo was separated from its parents, but together Cobalion, Terrakion and Virizion took care of it. They acted as its parents and taught it knowledge and moves for survival. Keldeo eventually grew and even surpassed the three Pokémon. One day, Keldeo took off from the forest with no one knowing why.

Virizion is a quadrupedal deer-like Pokémon. The top part of its slender body is covered in lush green leaf-like fur, while its underbelly is a pastel-green hue.

Its face is deer-like in appearance, and it has pinkish eyes. It appears to be wearing armored boots with pink tips at the top and gray markings at its toes.

Virizion does not typically trust humans. When humans destroyed its homeland, Virizion fought them alongside its Pokémon friends, along with Cobalion and Terrakion. Many stories depict it as initially ambivalent about its allies and hesitant to fully embrace its role in the Swords of Justice. However, such tales always reveal in some way or another that Virizion truly does care about its companions, but simply does not enjoy expressing it. When Keldeo joins the group in most versions of the myth, Virizion is at first the most hesitant about the new member, but eventually grows closer to the protégé.

Virizion's horns are extremely sharp. It is incredibly swift and uses whirlwind-like movements to confuse its foes. The gray stripe produces a green sword-like horn

Cobalion is a goat-like Pokémon that is mainly aqua blue with eight black dots on it (four on each side). It has a light blue spiky tail and a white scruff of fluffy white fur covering its neck.

While it also has a slight hatred of humans (having fought them in the past). It also appears to never show emotion, unlike its more expressive comrades. People lucky enough to spot the Sword of Justice together, however, have reported that Cobalion appears to have a special affinity for the group's youngest member, Keldeo. Many legends regarding the Swords of Justice portray Cobalion as Keldeo's adopted father of sorts.

Terrakion is a bulky, quadrupedal ox-like Pokémon. Its body is mostly gray, with tan coloration on its face, underbelly, and legs. It has sharp orange eyes with small black pupils.

Terrakion is physically powerful enough to smash through a castle wall in one great charge.

Terrakion does not trust humans, and once fought against them alongside Cobalion and Virizion to protect Pokémon. It is a strong, protective Pokémon. It usually seems to have a fierce grimace etched on its face. In literature, Terrakion is often depicted as being less perceptive and more impulsive than its fellow Swords of Justice, sometimes causing problems for the other members because of this; however, its loyalty and dedication to its allies as well as its unrivaled compassion for the small and weak are often praised as some of its most noble traits.

Zygarde is shown to be capable of gathering the energy of the land and focus it on its foes, damaging them. It has the ability to divide its cells from its body temporarily, using them as weapons, either as arrows or waves. Zygarde usually stays out of the sight of others.

Their entire beings are powered by vengefulness.

They will mimic every movement their targets make until they lower their guards. Then, they strike, draining their victims' life force as sustenance.

Gengar are also said to attack those who are hopelessly lost and afraid in the mountains. Many Gengar have learned to feed on fear, simply following victims in the shadows and mimicking them almost, but not quite perfectly. This cultivates great paranoia in victims, which they can then feast on. Other tricks Gengar have been known to use include: laughing maniacally in the shadows, lighting their red eyes in the darkness, and chanting mysteriously in the distance. In some places, parents warn that Gengar appear at night in the bedrooms of naughty children. A famous folk tale tells of a Gengar that once used to be human, attacking people so it could have a friend.

In spite of their infamous insidiousness and cruelty, domesticated Gengar that are being kindly looked after by their trainers are much friendlier, and their smiles appear to be less creepy.

Scizor is a human-sized mantis similar to its evolutionary predecessor Scyther, with a thick, metallic red exoskeleton and crab-like claws.

They are tougher and stronger than Scyther, but have lost their predecessor's speed. Instead, they spread their wings to cool off, and flap them very rapidly to heat up, or to blow air to cool themselves off. While Scyther are mantis-like predator, striking fast and simply evading potential pursuers, Scizor are coated with a red steel of sorts and therefore not quite as agile. Once they engage their foes, either in the wild or at the direction of a Pokémon Trainer in a Pokémon battle, they behave more like Scyther, striking quickly with their powerful claws, raking more than pinching, and relying on their startling agility to evade attacks. They will raise their claws and wave them around to scare off predators or foes, giving them the appearance of having three heads.

Scizor are known to live in the grasslands despite not being found in the wild.

The red horns that were on Gallade's head have moved down to its chest, like that of Gardevoir, but are much sharper. Its head is also similar to that of a Gardevoir, but instead it has a large gray-blue horn resembling a gladiator helmet. Another notable feature are the blade-like protrusions from its elbows, which Gallade can use as swords. It seems that the sharp protrusions can be extended and retracted when necessary.

Gallade are noble Pokémon that protect the weak and are talented at etiquette and "fencing", as well as they can do anything to defeat their enemies. They refuse to attack foes weaker than them unless they have some sort of handicap to make the fights fair. They hold honor in the highest regard and will graciously accept losses as long as they fought courageously.

Most Gallade live on treetops so as to jump down and fight with enemies or alert civilians.

They will fight most valiantly when defending someone they love. Due to their gallantry, Gallade will never slay foes in combat under normal circumstances. Should their honor be sullied, however, they may challenge offenders to duels to the death, going to great lengths to ensure that participants will be on even footing during such matches.

Hawlucha is a bipedal, avian Pokémon. Its underside is mostly white with colourful plumage. It has a mask-like face with green markings and orange around its eyes and top of its head with three orange feathers sticking out. Its eyes have black sclera with yellow irises, and the end of its beak is red and has two nostrils. Its back is red and its wings are cape-like with green underside. Its wings have three claws and are connected to its tail. Its feet are yellow with three toes.

Despite its small size, Hawlucha is capable of fighting other Fighting-type Pokémon. It attacks by staying in their blind spots, such as from above, considering that they are also part Flying-type.

Hawlucha uses its small body frame to tire out larger opponents before finishing them with a flashy and stylish move. However, it tends to become a show-off after performing such a technique and most opponents take advantage of this to win.

Hawlucha in Paldea tend to be solitary, preferring quiet lifestyles and usually do not flock together. For this reason, they despise Primeape and frequently fight noisy groups of them.

Noivern is a large, draconian bat-like Pokémon. Noivern stands upright on its two clawed feet when it isn't flying. Its body is mainly purple and black in color. It has large, black and purple wings, which bear three red, claw-like protrusions at their tips each. The thin flaps of skin connecting Noivern's wings to its body are green in color. It has a fluffy white collar of fur encircling the lower portion of its neck. Its underbelly is purple while its back and extremities are black, with red claws. Noivern has piercing yellow eyes and v-shaped eyebrow-like features. Its mouth has two pointed black features just below its nostrils. Its ears, which resemble loudspeakers, are very large and rounded with green insides.

Noivern has an aggressive temperament and will ruthlessly taunt its opponents in the dark. Supposedly, it will attack anything that wanders too close to it. Enemies that are weakened by the sound waves are dealt with the finishing blow by Noivern's fangs. However, Noivern can be tamed by trustworthy trainers if given a fruit to eat.

They communicate warnings to other Noivern about territorial boundaries using sonar; those unfortunate enough to be caught between two conflicting Noivern may sometimes faint from dizziness.

These Pokémon are omnivores, despite having fearsome appearances, and enjoy eating many different kinds of fruits and berries—they seem to have a particular affinity for Persim Berries.
