Pokédex entries

Flapple

Sword	It ate a sour apple, and that induced its evolution. In its cheeks, it stores an acid capable of causing chemical burns.
Shield	It flies on wings of apple skin and spits a powerful acid. It can also change its shape into that of an apple.
Scarlet	It flutters around while seeking an opening in the opponent’s guard, then attacks by spitting acidic liquid strong enough to melt metal.
Violet	It uses its own body fluid to repair its apple. Strong Flapple that have won many battles have apples that are clay colored all over.

Gigantamax

Sword	Under the influence of Gigantamax energy, it produces much more sweet nectar, and its shape has changed to resemble a giant apple.
Shield	If it stretches its neck, the strong aroma of its nectar pours out. The scent is so sickeningly sweet that one whiff makes other Pokémon faint.
