Pokedex descriptions

Red/Blue Its pincers are not only powerful weapons, they are used for balance when walking sideways.
Yellow Its pincers are superb weapons. They sometimes break off during battle, but they grow back fast.
Gold If it senses danger approaching, it cloaks itself with bubbles from its mouth so it will look bigger.
Silver The pincers break off easily. If it loses a pincer, it somehow becomes incapable of walking sideways.
Crystal If it is unable to find food, it will absorb nutrients by swallowing a mouthful of sand.
