It can spontaneously become enraged. Everyone near it clears out as it rampages, and the resulting loneliness makes it angrier still.
Moon
Its raging tires it out and causes it to fall asleep, but the anger resonating in its dreams causes it to wake up—which infuriates it all over again.
Ultra Sun
The smallest of things could cause it to lose its temper. Because it doesn't hold in its stress, this Pokémon can live a long time.
