Ultra Sun
Once thought to be the ancestor of all bird Pokémon, some of the latest research suggests that may not be the case.
Moon
To all appearances flightless, it was able to glide down from tall treetops to snag its prey.
Sun
It is the ancestor of all bird Pokémon. Archen itself could not actually fly but moved by hopping from treetop to treetop.
Black 2
It was revived from an ancient fossil. Not able to fly, it lived in treetops and hopped from one branch to another.
