Pokedex descriptions

Diamond	They flock in great numbers. Though small, they flap their wings with great power.
Pearl	Usually with a large flock, it is barely noticeable when alone. Its cries are very strident.
Platinum Black White	Because they are weak individually, they form groups. However, they bicker if the group grows too big.
HeartGold SoulSilver	They flock around mountains and fields, chasing after bug Pokémon. Their singing is noisy and annoying.
