Flavor Text

: It’s drowzy in daytime, but flies off in the evening in big groups. No one knows where they go.
: It carries people and Pokémon when it flies. But since it only drifts, it can end up anywhere.
: At dusk, swarms of them are carried aloft on winds. When noticed, they suddenly vanish.
: It can generate and release gas within its body. That’s how it can control the altitude of its drift.
