Pokedex descriptions

Red/Blue The large pincer has 10000 hp of crushing power. However, its huge size makes it unwieldy to use.
Yellow One claw grew massively and as hard as steel. It has 10,000-HP strength. However, it is too heavy.
Gold It can hardly lift its massive, overgrown pincer. The pincer's size makes it difficult to aim properly.
Silver Its pincers grow peculiarly large. If it lifts the pincers too fast, it loses its balance and staggers.
Crystal Its oversized claw is very powerful, but when it's not in battle, the claw just gets in the way.
Ruby KINGLER has an enormous, oversized claw. It waves this huge claw in the air to communicate with others. However, because the claw is so heavy, the POKéMON quickly tires.
Sapphire KINGLER has an enormous, oversized claw. It waves this huge claw in the air to communicate with others. However, because the claw is so heavy, the POKéMON quickly tires.
Emerald It waves its huge, oversized claw in the air to communicate with others. But since the claw is so heavy, this POKéMON quickly tires.
FireRed Its large and hard pincer has 10,000-horsepower strength. However, being so big, it is unwieldy to move.
LeafGreen The large pincer has 10,000-horsepower crushing force. However, its huge size makes it unwieldy to use.
Diamond The larger pincer has 10,000- horsepower strength. However, it is so heavy, it is difficult to aim.
Pearl The larger pincer has 10,000- horsepower strength. However, it is so heavy, it is difficult to aim.
