Each of them has a different type, Ability, and signature move.

Munkidori		Munkidori keeps itself somewhere safe while it toys with its foes, using psychokinesis to induce intense dizziness.
Fezandipiti		Fezandipiti owes its beautiful looks and lovely voice to the toxic stimulants emanating from the chain wrapped around its body. Fezandipiti beats its glossy wings to scatter pheromones that captivate people and Pokémon.
