| Crystal | During the day, it gathers with others and hangs from the ceilings of old buildings and caves. |
| Ruby | ZUBAT remains quietly unmoving in a dark spot during the bright daylight hours. It does so because prolonged exposure to the sun causes its body to become slightly burned. |
| Sapphire | ZUBAT avoids sunlight because exposure causes it to become unhealthy. During the daytime, it stays in caves or under the eaves of old houses, sleeping while hanging upside down. |
| FireRed | It has no eyes. Instead, it relies on its ultrasonic cries for echo location to flit about in darkness. |
| LeafGreen | It forms colonies in perpetually dark places and uses ultrasonic waves to identify and approach targets. |
| Emerald | While living in pitch-black caverns, their eyes gradually grew shut and deprived them of vision. They use ultrasonic waves to detect obstacles. |

| Omega Ruby | Zubat remains quietly unmoving in a dark spot during the bright daylight hours. It does so because prolonged exposure to the sun causes its body to become slightly burned. |
| Alpha Sapphire | Zubat avoids sunlight because exposure causes it to become unhealthy. During the daytime, it stays in caves or under the eaves of old houses, sleeping while hanging upside down. |
| Sun | It sleeps in caves during the day. It has no eyes, so to check its surroundings while flying, it emits ultrasonic waves. |
