Pokedex descriptions

Red/Blue As it grows, the stone portions of its body harden to become similar to a diamond, but colored black.
Yellow Burrows at high speed in search of food. The tunnels it leaves are used as homes by DIGLETTs.
Gold It twists and squirms through the ground. The thunderous roar of its tunneling echoes a long way.
Silver It rapidly bores through the ground at 50 mph by squirming and twisting its massive, rugged body.
Crystal As it digs through the ground, it absorbs many hard objects. This is what makes its body so solid.
Ruby ONIX has a magnet in its brain. It acts as a compass so that this POKéMON does not lose direction while it is tunneling. As it grows older, its body becomes increasingly rounder and smoother.
Sapphire ONIX has a magnet in its brain. It acts as a compass so that this POKéMON does not lose direction while it is tunneling. As it grows older, its body becomes increasingly rounder and smoother.
Emerald There is a magnet in its brain that prevents an ONIX from losing direction while tunneling. As it grows older, its body becomes steadily rounder and smoother.
FireRed It usually lives underground. It searches for food while boring its way through the ground at 50 miles per hour.
LeafGreen As it grows, the stone portions of its body harden to become similar to black-colored diamonds.
Diamond When it travels underground, it causes rumbling and tremors. It can move at 50 mph.
Pearl It squirms through the ground using its long and rugged body. It always eats while burrowing.
