Flavor

Flavor Text

Diamond
They flock in great numbers. Though small, they flap their wings with great power.
Pearl
Usually with a large flock, it is barely noticeable when alone. Its cries are very strident.
Platinum
Because they are weak individually, they form groups. However, they bicker if the group grows too big.
