Vullaby are exclusive to {{game|Black and White|s|Black}}, {{game|Black and White|s|Black 2|2}}, {{game3|Sun and Moon|Moon|s}} and {{game3|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Moon|s}}, while Rufflet are to {{game|Black and White|s|White}}, {{game|Black and White|s|White 2}}, {{game3|Sun and Moon|Sun|s}} and {{game3|Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon|Ultra Sun|s}}. Whereas Vullaby can only be female, Rufflet can only be male.

Rufflet, like Braviary, is based on the {{wp|bald eagle}}, specifically a baby eaglet most likely, paralleling Rufflet's position as the start of its evolutionary line. Its color scheme is inspired by the red, white, and blue of the {{wp|flag of the United States}}. The single plume on his head also derives from {{wp|Native Americans in the United States|Native American}} culture.<ref>[http://web.archive.org/web/20110402003550/http://shellspider.blog101.fc2.com/blog-entry-562.html Interview in Nintendo Dream Issue 205 (May 2011), via Fan blog post (Japanese)]</ref>
