The Pokémon’s story

Patrat lives near a nest watched in shifts by several members. They store food in their cheeks and pass signals to one another by moving their tails. Without a lookout, the group becomes uneasy. Despite this caution, an individual focused on its territory sometimes forgets to look behind itself. The Pokédex presents organized but never perfect collective vigilance, in which each also depends on the others' attention.

A detail worth noticing

Pokémon White explains that Patrat take turns watching the surroundings of their nest. Pokémon Y highlights a weakness: they often overlook what is happening behind them. The group's surveillance partly compensates for this individual limitation.
