Platinum Diamond Pearl Heartgold Soulsilver

Because every PRINPLUP considers itself to be the most important, they can never form a group.

It lives alone, away from others. Apparently, every one of them believes it is the most important.

Its wings deliver wicked blows that snap even the thickest of trees. It searches for prey in icy seas.

It lives a solitary life. Its wings deliver wicked blows that can snap even the thickest of trees.
