Pokedex descriptions

Black When its internal fire flares up, its movements grow sharper and faster. When in trouble, it emits smoke.
White Whatever it eats becomes fuel for the flame in its stomach. When it is angered, the intensity of the flame increases.
Black 2
White 2
The more it eats, the more fuel it has to make the fire in its stomach stronger. This fills it with even more power.
