Pokedex descriptions

Red Blue	Often hides in water to stalk unwary prey. For swimming fast, it moves its ears to maintain balance.
Yellow	When tapped, this POKéMON will pull in its head, but its tail will still stick out a little bit.
Gold	It is recognized as a symbol of longevity. If its shell has algae on it, that WARTORTLE is very old.
Silver SoulSilver	It cleverly controls its furry ears and tail to maintain its balance while swimming.
Crystal	Its long, furry tail is a symbol of longevity, making it quite popular among older people.
Ruby Sapphire	Its tail is large and covered with a rich, thick fur. The tail becomes increasingly deeper in color as WARTORTLE ages. The scratches on its shell are evidence of this POKéMON’s toughness as a battler.
