Pokédex entries

Red Blue	Curls up into a spiny ball when threatened. It can roll while curled up to attack or escape.
Yellow	It is skilled at slashing enemies with its claws. If broken, they start to grow back in a day.
Gold	In an attempt to hide itself, it will run around at top speed to kick up a blinding dust storm.
Silver	If it digs at an incredible pace, it may snap off its spikes and claws. They grow back in a day.
Crystal	Adept at climbing trees, it rolls into a spiny ball, then attacks its enemies from above.
Ruby	SANDSLASH’s body is covered by tough spikes, which are hardened sections of its hide. Once a year, the old spikes fall out, to be replaced with new spikes that grow out from beneath the old ones.
Sapphire	SANDSLASH can roll up its body as if it were a ball covered with large spikes. In battle, this POKéMON will try to make the foe flinch by jabbing it with its spines. It then leaps at the stunned foe to tear wildly with its sharp claws.
FireRed	It is adept at attacking with the spines on its back and its sharp claws while quickly scurrying about.
LeafGreen	Curls up into a spiny ball when threatened. It can roll while curled up to attack or escape.
Emerald	It curls up in a ball to protect itself from enemy attacks. It also curls up to prevent heatstroke during the daytime when temperatures rise sharply.
Diamond Pearl Platinum	It curls up, then rolls into foes with its back. Its sharp spines inflict severe damage.
HeartGold	In an attempt to hide itself, it will run around at top speed to kick up a blinding dust storm.

Omega Ruby	Sandslash’s body is covered by tough spikes, which are hardened sections of its hide. Once a year, the old spikes fall out, to be replaced with new spikes that grow out from beneath the old ones.
Alpha Sapphire	Sandslash can roll up its body as if it were a ball covered with large spikes. In battle, this Pokémon will try to make the foe flinch by jabbing it with its spines. It then leaps at the stunned foe to tear wildly with its sharp claws.
Sun	Although they are sharp, its claws and spikes often break off. They grow back the next day, so it is not bothered by the temporary loss.
Moon	It uses its claws to climb trees and then curls its body into a spiny ball, ready to drop onto any prey that appears.
Ultra Sun	Its claws and horns often break off. The broken claws and horns can be used to carve plows for tilling farm fields.
Ultra Moon	Thanks to its thick claws, it’s good at climbing trees. There are plenty of Sandslash that park themselves in trees and go right to sleep.
