SunThey travel in groups of four or five, leaving signs for one another on trees and rocks. They bring down their prey with coordinated attacks.
MoonThey dwell in cold places. This Pokémon’s main food source in Alola is Vulpix and Sandshrew, which they carefully divide among their group.
Ultra SunOne Weavile will trip a Sandshrew and flip it over, and then another Weavile will deal the finishing blow with its sharp claws.
Ultra MoonThanks to its increased intelligence, scrapping over food is a thing of the past. A scratch from its claws will give you a case of frostbite!
SwordThey attack their quarry in packs. Prey as large as Mamoswine easily fall to the teamwork of a group of Weavile.
ShieldWith its claws, it leaves behind signs for its friends to find. The number of distinct signs is said to be over 500.
Legends: ArceusThis species corners prey as a pack, under the guidance of a leader. Weavile displays increased cunning, leading me to speculate that its evolution caused further brain development.
