Black After it has eaten up all the food in its territory, it moves to another area. Its two heads do not get along.
White Since their two heads do not get along and compete with each other for food, they always eat too much.

Sword While hunting for prey, Zweilous wanders its territory, its two heads often bickering over which way to go.
Shield Their two heads will fight each other over a single piece of food. Zweilous are covered in scars even without battling others.
Scarlet The two heads do not get along at all. If you don’t give each head the same amount of attention, they’ll begin fighting out of jealousy.
Violet The two heads have different likes and dislikes. Because the heads fight with each other, Zweilous gets stronger without needing to rely on others.
