Pokedex descriptions

Gold LeafGreen HeartGold	The bloom on top of its head opens and closes as the temperature fluctuates up and down.
Silver FireRed SoulSilver	It spreads its petals to absorb sunlight. It also floats in the air to get closer to the sun.
Crystal	As soon as it rains, it closes its flower and hides in the shade of a tree to avoid getting wet.
Ruby Sapphire	SKIPLOOM's flower blossoms when the temperature rises above 64 degrees F. How much the flower opens depends on the temperature. For that reason, this POKéMON is sometimes used as a thermometer.
Emerald	It blossoms when the temperature rises above 64 degrees F. Because its flower's blooming changes with the temperature, it is sometimes used as a thermometer.
Diamond Pearl Platinum Black White	It blooms when the weather warms. It floats in the sky to soak up as much sunlight as possible.
