Biology

Known as UB-02 Beauty, it is an Ultra Beast that appeared from an Ultra Wormhole. Pheromosa are feminine Pokémon that can move at extremely quick speeds and give off a pheromone that causes any creature nearby to become infatuated with them. Its body is thin and supple, but it possesses great speed and power.

It refuses to touch anything, most likely due to it sensing uncleanliness in this world. It might be a dangerous alien here, but it is apparently a common organism in its home world, the Ultra Desert.
