Pokédex Entries

Sun

It lived in jungles around a hundred million years ago. It used its skillful headbutts to combat Aerodactyl.

Moon

In rock layers where Cranidos fossils are found, the fossilized trunks of trees snapped in two are also often found.

Ultra Sun

A primeval Pokémon, it possesses a hard and sturdy skull, lacking any intelligence within.

Ultra Moon

Its hard skull is its distinguishing feature. It snapped trees by headbutting them, and then it fed on their ripe berries.
