Ultra Sun	In contrast to its lovely face, it’s so brutal that it tortures its weakened prey rather than finishing them off.
Ultra Moon	Its round face is a symbol of wealth. Persian that have bigger, plumper faces are considered more beautiful.
Let's Go, Pikachu!	It has the classiest coat. The rippling of its fur in the heat of battle has a beauty all its own.

Sword	The round face of Alolan Persian is considered to be a symbol of prosperity in the Alola region, so these Pokémon are very well cared for.
