Pokédex entries

Red
Blue		 Capable of swimming backwards by rapidly flapping its wing-like pectoral fins and stout tail.
Yellow Touching the back fin causes numbness. It hooks its tail to coral to stay in place while sleeping.
Gold An examination of its cells revealed the presence of a gene not found in HORSEA. It became a hot topic.
Silver Its fin-tips leak poison. Its fins and bones are highly valued as ingredients in herbal medicine.
Crystal The male raises the young. If it is approached, it uses its toxic spikes to fend off the intruder.
Ruby SEADRA sleeps after wriggling itself between the branches of coral. Those trying to harvest coral are occasionally stung by this POKéMON’s poison barbs if they fail to notice it.
Sapphire SEADRA generates whirlpools by spinning its body. The whirlpools are strong enough to swallow even fishing boats. This POKéMON weakens prey with these currents, then swallows it whole.
FireRed Its body bristles with sharp spikes. Carelessly trying to touch it could cause fainting from the spikes.
LeafGreen It is capable of swimming backwards by rapidly flapping its winglike pectoral fins and stout tail.
Emerald The poisonous barbs all over its body are highly valued as ingredients for making traditional herbal medicine. It shows no mercy to anything approaching its nest.
