Flavor Info

Pokédex Entries

Vanitarch drape their wings behind them like a cape instead of using them to fly. They radiate so much importance and beauty that other Pokémon can't resist when a Vanitarch orders them to do something.


Vanitarch expect to be waited on by everyone around them and rarely do as they are asked. Trainers have to word their battle commands carefully so the Vanitarch thinks the instruction was its own idea.

Name Origin

vanity + monarch butterfly
