The more rounded of the features are to the sides of its head, and the more pointed feature is atop. As distinctive among swans, Swanna possesses a long, curving neck. Two light-blue feathery features, like those on the sides of Swana's head, are present on Swanna's underside, and Swana's large wings are positioned in a way unconventional for birds. Swana's legs are small, and its webbed feet dark in coloration. It's white unlike it's prevolved form.

Trivia
- Swanna was first seen in a video shown after Oha Suta on July 31st 2010 for the Pokémon Musicals, again when its art leaked on Yahoo's Pokémon website, and finally in the September issue of CoroCoro on August 8, 2010.
- Swanna is based on a swan.
- Swanna is the fourth bird Pokémon to have the Water/-typing. The other three being Wingull, Pelipper and Ducklett.
- It is possibly based on a Trumpeter Swan, as seen by the trumpet it held in a trailer about Pokemon Musicals.
- It is also possibly based on Odette from Swan Lake the ballet.
- In BW:20 a Ducklett (Swanna's pre evolution) might appear as shown in some preview pictures (in drawing) and in pre release pictures, it shows that with the rumor of Ash getting Sandile in this episode, Ducklett will appear in this episode.
- This Pokemon, due to it's pre-evolution, appears to be a play on the tale of the ugly duckling, as it's pre-evolved form looks like a duck.
