Pokedex descriptions

Red/Blue The female's horn develops slowly. Prefers physical attacks such as clawing and biting.
Yellow When resting deep in its burrow, its thorns always retract. This is proof that it is relaxed.
Gold When feeding its young, it first chews and tenderizes the food, then spits it out for the offspring.
Silver It has a calm and caring nature. Because its horn grows slowly, it prefers not to fight.
Crystal It has a docile nature. If it is threatened with attack, it raises the barbs that are all over its body.
Ruby When NIDORINA are with their friends or family, they keep their barbs tucked away to prevent hurting each other. This POKéMON appears to become nervous if separated from the others.
Sapphire When NIDORINA are with their friends or family, they keep their barbs tucked away to prevent hurting each other. This POKéMON appears to become nervous if separated from the others.
Emerald When it is with its friends or family, its barbs are tucked away to prevent injury. It appears to become nervous if separated from the others.
FireRed The female has a gentle temperament. It emits ultrasonic cries that have the power to befuddle foes.
LeafGreen The female's horns develop slowly. Prefers physical attacks such as clawing and biting.
Diamond When it senses danger, it raises all the barbs on its body. These barbs grow slower than NIDORINO's.
