Pokedex descriptions
| Ruby | DUSKULL can pass through any wall no matter how thick it may be. Once this POKéMON chooses a target, it will doggedly pursue the intended victim until the break of dawn. |
|---|---|
| Sapphire | DUSKULL wanders lost among the deep darkness of midnight. There is an oft- told admonishment given to misbehaving children that this POKéMON will spirit away bad children who earn scoldings from their mothers. |
| Emerald | A glare from its single scarlet eye makes even burly grown-ups freeze in utter fear. It is a nocturnal POKéMON that roams about under the cloak of darkness. |
| FireRed LeafGreen |
Making itself invisible, it silently sneaks up to prey. It has the ability to slip through thick walls. |
| Diamond Pearl |
It doggedly pursues its prey wherever it goes. However, the chase is abandoned at sunrise. |
| Platinum | It loves the crying of children. It startles bad kids by passing through walls and making them cry. |
| HeartGold SoulSilver |
If it finds bad children who won't listen to their parents, it will spirit them away--or so it's said. |
