 | Sun | It can fly at speeds rivaling jet planes. It dives into flocks of bird Pokémon and gulps the entire flock down whole. |
Moon | The protuberances on its head serve as sensors. It can even detect distant prey. | Ultra Sun | It flies at the speed of sound while searching for prey, and it has midair battles with Salamence as the two compete for food. | Ultra Moon | Its fine scales don’t just reduce wind resistance—their sharp edges also cause injury to any opponent who attacks it. |  | Sun | Excess energy melted its arms and wings, transforming them into giant scythes. |
Moon | Its vaunted wings become scythes, sending it mad with rage. It swings its scythes wildly and slices the ground to pieces. | Ultra Sun | Its arms and wings melted into something like scythes. Mad with rage, it rampages on and on. | Ultra Moon | Its disposition is more vicious than before its Mega Evolution. Garchomp carves its opponents up with the scythes on both arms. |
