ALTARIA dances and wheels through the sky among billowing, cotton-like clouds. By singing melodies in its crystal-clear voice, this POKéMON makes its listeners experience dreamy wonderment.

Sapphire:

ALTARIA sings in a gorgeous soprano. Its wings are like cotton clouds. This POKéMON catches updrafts with its buoyant wings and soars way up into the wild blue yonder.

If you hear a beautiful melody trilling deep among mountains far from people, it is ALTARIA’s humming.

On sunny days, it flies freely through the sky and blends into the clouds. It sings in a beautiful soprano.

Sword:

As it flies in a calm and relaxed manner, Altaria performs a humming song that would enrapture any audience.

Shield:

This Pokémon has a kind disposition, but if it’s provoked, it will threaten opponents with shrill cries before attacking them without mercy.

The great big cloud bird in the sky. It has a beautiful singing voice that it will share if it bonds with you. But watch out for merciless fireballs!
