Pokédex entries
Red Blue |
Its massive bones are 1000 times harder than human bones. It can easily knock a trailer flying. |
---|---|
Yellow | A POKéMON with a one-track mind. Once it charges, it won’t stop running until it falls asleep. |
Gold | It is inept at turning because of its four short legs. It can only charge and run in one direction. |
Silver | It doesn’t care if there is anything in its way. It just charges and destroys all obstacles. |
Crystal | It can remember only one thing at a time. Once it starts rushing, it forgets why it started. |
Ruby | RHYHORN runs in a straight line, smashing everything in its path. It is not bothered even if it rushes headlong into a block of steel. This POKéMON may feel some pain from the collision the next day, however. |
Sapphire | RHYHORN’s brain is very small. It is so dense, while on a run it forgets why it started running in the first place. It apparently remembers sometimes if it demolishes something. |
FireRed | Strong, but not too bright, this POKéMON can shatter even a skyscraper with its charging TACKLES. |
LeafGreen | Its massive bones are 1,000 times harder than human bones. Its TACKLE can knock a semitrailer flying. |
Emerald | Once it starts running, it doesn’t stop. Its tiny brain makes it so stupid that it can’t remember why it started running in the first place. |
Diamond Pearl |
Its body is clad in a thick hide, and its tackles topple buildings. Unfortunately, it is not smart. |
Platinum | Its powerful tackles can destroy anything. However, it is too slow witted to help people work. |
HeartGold | It is inept at turning because of its four short legs. It can only charge and run in one direction. |
SoulSilver | It doesn’t care if there is anything in its way. It just charges and destroys all obstacles. |

Brilliant Diamond Shining Pearl |

Legends: Arceus | Ludicrously strong—when it butts heads with a mountain, it is the mountain that shatters. But its short legs struggle with turns, and it is incapable of stopping unless it collides with something. |
