Pokedex descriptions

Ruby	KECLEON is capable of changing its body colors at will to blend in with its surroundings. There is one exception - this POKéMON can’t change the zigzag pattern on its belly.
Sapphire	KECLEON alters its body coloration to blend in with its surroundings, allowing it to sneak up on its prey unnoticed. Then it lashes out with its long, stretchy tongue to instantly ensnare the unsuspecting target.
Emerald	A POKéMON that has the ability to alter its body colors to match its surroundings. A KECLEON reverts to its original colors if it is startled.
FireRed LeafGreen	It changes body color to blend in with its surroundings. It also changes color if it is happy or sad.
Diamond Pearl Platinum Black White Black 2 White 2	It can freely change its body’s color. The zigzag pattern on its belly doesn’t change, however.
HeartGold SoulSilver	It changes its shading to match its surroundings so it can sneak up on prey. Only its belly patterns stay fixed.
