Biology
Its fur and jewel make it popular with the rich, but its fickle, uncaring attitude makes it hard to raise. Though it will attack anyone without provocation, including its trainer, pulling on its whiskers will temporarily make it docile. Its Galarian counterpart is Perrserker, whose barbaric habits clash with both Persian's elegance and ego.

Its elegant and refined behavior clashes with that of the barbaric Perrserker. The relationship between the two is one of mutual disdain.
ShieldGetting this prideful Pokémon to warm up to you takes a lot of effort, and it will claw at you the moment it gets annoyed.
SwordThis Pokémon is popular with rich people. It’s also targeted by hunters who are after the jewel in its forehead.
Ultra MoonAlthough the jewel on its forehead appears to be a different color than those of Alolan Persian, it’s mostly made of the same material.
Ultra SunIt has a high opinion of itself, although not to the same extent as the Alolan Persian. It’s quite difficult to make friends with this Pokémon.
MoonIt has a violent temperament. It will attack anything that looks it in the eye. Its sharp claws inflict deep wounds.
SunA very haughty Pokémon. Among fans, the size of the jewel in its forehead is a topic of much talk.
Diamond · Pearl · Platinum · Black · White · Black 2 · White 2Has a vicious temperament. Beware if it raises its tail straight up. It is a signal that it is about to pounce and bite.
FireRedA PERSIAN’s six bold whiskers sense air movements to determine what is in its vicinity. It becomes docile if grabbed by the whiskers.
EmeraldPERSIAN has six bold whiskers that give it a look of toughness. The whiskers sense air movements to determine what is in the Pokémon’s surrounding vicinity. It becomes docile if grabbed by the whiskers.
Ruby · Sapphire · Omega Ruby · Alpha SapphireBehind its lithe, elegant appearance lies a barbaric side. It will tear apart its prey on a mere whim.

Silver · SoulSilver · YMany adore it for its sophisticated air. However, it will lash out and scratch for little reason.
Gold · HeartGoldThe gem in its forehead glows on its own! It walks with all the grace and elegance of a proud queen.
Yellow · Let’s Go, Pikachu! · Let’s Go, Eevee!Although its fur has many admirers, it is tough to raise as a pet because of its fickle meanness.
