Generation 5
Black, White, Black 2, White 2

It desperately tries to keep its black tail hidden. It is said to be proof the tail hides a secret.

Generation 6
X

It hates light and shock. If attacked, it inflates its body to build up its counterstrike.

Y

To keep its pitch-black tail hidden, it lives quietly in the darkness. It is never first to attack.

Omega Ruby

If two or more Wobbuffet meet, they will turn competitive and try to outdo each other’s endurance. However, they may try to see which one can endure the longest without food. Trainers need to beware of this habit.

Alpha Sapphire

Wobbuffet does nothing but endure attacks—it won’t attack on its own. However, it won’t endure an attack on its tail. When that happens, the Pokémon will try to take the foe with it using Destiny Bond.
