In the anime

Masquerain first appeared in AG077. Drew was seen practicing with it for the upcoming Rustboro City Contest, which was in the following episode.

In Destiny Deoxys, a Masquerain was owned by Audrey. The Eyeball Pokémon helped to rotate the fan blades of the windmills in order for LaRousse City's power to come back on.

Pokédex entries

Pokémon Ruby

Masquerain intimidates enemies with the eyelike patterns on its antennas. This Pokémon flaps its four wings to freely fly in any direction - even sideways and backwards - as if it were a helicopter.

Pokémon Sapphire / Pokémon Pinball: Ruby/Sapphire

Masquerain's antennas have eyelike patterns that usually give it an angry look. If the "eyes" are droopy and appear sad, it is said to be a sign that a heavy rainfall is on its way.

Pokémon Emerald

It intimidates foes with the large eyelike patterns on its antennae. Because it can't fly if its wings get wet, it shelters itself from rain under large trees and eaves.

Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen

The antennae have distinctive patterns that look like eyes. When it rains, they grow heavy, making flight impossible.

Name origin

Masquerain's name is a combination of masquerade, a disguise, and rain. Its Japanese name is a combination of 雨 ame, rain, and English moth. Also, If you take a look at Masquerain's "eyes" they seem to resemble a Noctowl's intimidating stare. Perhaps a technique meant to scare off any potential Pokémon predators.
