Flavor Text
Sword If you visit a beach at the end of summer, you'll be able to see groups of Staryu lighting up in a steady rhythm.
Shield Fish Pokémon nibble at it, but Staryu isn't bothered. Its body regenerates quickly, even if part of it is completely torn off.
Brilliant Diamond If Staryu's body is damaged, it will regenerate as long as the red core remains. The core flashes at midnight.
