Pokedex descriptions

Red Blue LeafGreen	A common sight in forests and woods. It flaps its wings at ground level to kick up blinding sand.
Yellow	Very docile. If attacked, it will often kick up sand to protect itself rather than fight back.
Gold	It usually hides in tall grass. Because it dislikes fighting, it protects itself by kicking up sand.
Silver	Common in grassy areas and forests, it is very docile and will chase off enemies by flapping up sand.
Crystal	It rapidly flaps its wings in the grass, stirring up a dust cloud that drives insect prey out into the open.
Ruby Sapphire	PIDGEY has an extremely sharp sense of direction. It is capable of unerringly returning home to its nest, however far it may be removed from its familiar surroundings.
Emerald	It has an extremely sharp sense of direction. It can unerringly return home to its nest, however far it may be removed from its familiar surroundings.
FireRed	Does not like to fight. It hides in tall grass and so on, foraging for food such as small bugs.
Diamond Pearl Platinum	It is docile and prefers to avoid conflict. If disturbed, however, it can ferociously strike back.
