"A poor walker, it often falls down. However, its strong pride makes it puff up its chest without a care." "It doesn’t like to be taken care of. It’s difficult to bond with since it won’t listen to its Trainer." | |
"Because it is very proud, it hates accepting food from people. Its thick down guards it from cold." "It lives along the shore in northern countries. A skilled swimmer, it dives for over 10 minutes while hunting." | |
"Prefers cold climes and appears along coasts. It's an adorable little thing—as cute as any child—but it's also prideful, unwilling to accept handouts from people." | |
