Pokédex entries
Red Blue | Extremely quick to anger. It could be docile one moment then thrashing away the next instant. |
---|---|
Yellow | An agile POKéMON that lives in trees. It angers easily and will not hesitate to attack anything. |
Gold | It is extremely ill-tempered. Groups of them will attack any handy target for no reason. |
Silver | It’s unsafe to approach if it gets violently enraged for no reason and can’t distinguish friends from foes. |
Crystal | It lives in groups in the treetops. If it loses sight of its group, it becomes infuriated by its loneliness. |
Ruby Sapphire | When MANKEY starts shaking and its nasal breathing turns rough, it’s a sure sign that it is becoming angry. However, because it goes into a towering rage almost instantly, it is impossible for anyone to flee its wrath. |
FireRed | Light and agile on its feet, and ferocious in temperament. When angered, it flies into an uncontrollable frenzy. |
LeafGreen | Extremely quick to anger. It could be docile one moment, then thrashing away the next instant. |
Emerald | When it starts shaking and its nasal breathing turns rough, it’s a sure sign of anger. However, since this happens instantly, there is no time to flee. |
Diamond Pearl Platinum | It lives in treetop colonies. If one becomes enraged, the whole colony rampages for no reason. |
HeartGold | It is extremely ill-tempered. Groups of them will attack any handy target for no reason. |
SoulSilver | It’s unsafe to approach if it gets violently enraged for no reason and can’t distinguish friends from foes. |
Black White Black 2 White 2 | It lives in treetop colonies. If one becomes enraged, the whole colony rampages for no reason. |
X | It’s unsafe to approach if it gets violently enraged for no reason and can’t distinguish friends from foes. |
Y | It lives in treetop colonies. If one becomes enraged, the whole colony rampages for no reason. |
Omega Ruby Alpha Sapphire | When Mankey starts shaking and its nasal breathing turns rough, it’s a sure sign that it is becoming angry. However, because it goes into a towering rage almost instantly, it is impossible for anyone to flee its wrath. |
Sun | It can spontaneously become enraged. Everyone near it clears out as it rampages, and the resulting loneliness makes it angrier still. |
Moon | Its raging tires it out and causes it to fall asleep, but the anger resonating in its dreams causes it to wake up—which infuriates it all over again. |
Ultra Sun | The smallest of things could cause it to lose its temper. Because it doesn’t hold in its stress, this Pokémon can live a long time. |
Ultra Moon | If one gets angry, all the others around it will get angry, so silence is a rare visitor in a troop of Mankey. |
Let's Go Pikachu Let's Go Eevee | An agile Pokémon that lives in trees. It angers easily and will not hesitate to attack anything. |
