It’s very sensitive to danger. The sound of Corviknight’s flapping will have Bunnelby digging a hole to hide underground in moments.
Shield
It excels at digging holes. Using its ears, it can dig a nest 33 feet deep in one night.
Sword
It has ears like shovels. Digging holes strengthens its ears so much that they can sever thick roots effortlessly.
Y · Alpha Sapphire
They use their large ears to dig burrows. They will dig the whole night through.
