Pokedex descriptions

Gold LeafGreen	Its eyes are specially adapted. They concentrate even faint light and enable it to see in the dark.
Silver FireRed	When it needs to think, it rotates its head 180 degrees to sharpen its intellectual power.
Crystal	Its extremely soft feathers make no sound in flight. It silently sneaks up on prey without being detected.
Ruby Sapphire	NOCTOWL never fails at catching prey in darkness. This POKéMON owes its success to its superior vision that allows it to see in minimal light, and to its soft, supple wings that make no sound in flight.
Emerald	It unfailingly catches prey in darkness. NOCTOWL owe their success to superior vision that allows them to see in minimal light, and to their supple and silent wings.
Diamond	Its eyes are special. They can pick out objects as long as there is the tiniest amount of light.
Pearl	If it flips its head upside down, it's a sign that it is engaged in very complex thinking.
Platinum	Its eyes are specially developed to enable it to see clearly even in murky darkness and minimal light.
