Pokedex descriptions

Gold
LeafGreen
HeartGold
It has a very soft body. If it starts to roll, it will bounce all over and be impossible to stop.
Silver
FireRed
SoulSilver
Its extremely flexible and elastic body makes it bounce continuously--anytime, anywhere.
Crystal Instead of walking with its short legs, it moves around by bouncing on its soft, tender body.
Ruby IGGLYBUFF’s vocal chords are not sufficiently developed. It would hurt its throat if it were to sing too much. This POKéMON gargles with freshwater from a clean stream.
Sapphire IGGLYBUFF has a soft and plushy body that feels very much like a marshmallow. From this body wafts a gently sweet fragrance that soothes and calms the emotions of its foes.
Emerald Its soft and pliable body is very bouncy. When it sings continuously with all its might, its body steadily turns a deepening pink color.
