Pokedex descriptions

Gold
HeartGold
It swings its long snout around playfully, but because it is so strong, that can be dangerous.
Silver
FireRed
SoulSilver
As a sign of affection, it bumps with its snout. However, it is so strong, it may send you flying.
Crystal During the deserted morning hours, it comes ashore where it deftly uses its trunk to take a shower.
Ruby For its nest, PHANPY digs a vertical pit in the ground at the edge of a river. It marks the area around its nest with its trunk to let the others know that the area has been claimed.
Sapphire PHANPY uses its long nose to shower itself. When others gather around, they thoroughly douse each other with water. These POKéMON can be seen drying their soaking-wet bodies at the edge of water.
Emerald PHANPY’s big ears serve as broad fans. When it becomes hot, it flaps the ears busily to cool down. Even the young are very strong.
LeafGreen It swings its long snout around playfully, but because it is so strong, this can be dangerous.
