: It sends a soothing aura from its ribbonlike feelers to calm fights.
: It wraps its ribbonlike feelers around the arm of its beloved Trainer and walks with him or her.

: Its ribbonlike feelers give off an aura that weakens hostility in its prey, causing them to let down their guard. Then it attacks.
: When this Pokémon sights its prey, it swirls its ribbonlike feelers as a distraction. A moment later, it pounces.
: Once a fight breaks out, it will unflinchingly charge at dragon Pokémon that are many times larger than itself.
: Sylveon wraps its ribbonlike feelers around its Trainer’s arm because this touch enables it to read its Trainer’s feelings.
