Pokédex Entries

diamond

Because it is very proud, it hates accepting food from people. Its thick down guards it from cold.

pearl

It lives along shores in northern countries. A skilled swimmer, it dives for over 10 minutes to hunt.

platinum

A poor walker, it often falls down. However, its strong pride makes it puff up its chest without a care.

heartgold

It doesn’t like to be taken care of. It’s difficult to bond with since it won’t listen to its Trainer.

legends arceus

Prefers cold climes and appears along coasts. It's an adorable little thing—as cute as any child—but it's also prideful, unwilling to accept handouts from people.
