Pokedex descriptions

Red Blue LeafGreen	Found in fields and mountains. Mistaking them for boulders, people often step or trip on them.
Yellow	Commonly found near mountain trails, etc. If you step on one by accident, it gets angry.
Gold HeartGold	Most people may not notice, but a closer look should reveal that there are many GEODUDE around.
Silver SoulSilver	It uses its arms to steadily climb steep mountain paths. It swings its fists around if angered.
Crystal	Proud of their sturdy bodies, they bash against each other in a contest to prove whose is harder.
Ruby	The longer a GEODUDE lives, the more its edges are chipped and worn away, making it more rounded in appearance. However, this POKéMON’s heart will remain hard, craggy, and rough always.
Sapphire	When GEODUDE sleeps deeply, it buries itself halfway into the ground. It will not awaken even if hikers step on it unwittingly. In the morning, this POKéMON rolls downhill in search of food.
Emerald	It climbs mountain paths using only the power of its arms. Because they look just like boulders lining paths, hikers may step on them without noticing.
FireRed	Its round form makes it easy to pick up. Some people have used them to hurl at each other in a snowball fight.
Diamond	Many live on mountain trails and remain half buried while keeping an eye on climbers.
Pearl	It is impossible to distinguish from rocks. It slams against others in contests of hardness.
Platinum Black White Black 2 White 2	At rest, it looks just like a rock. Carelessly stepping on it will make it swing its fists angrily.
