Pokédex entries

Diamond	It has a pliable body without any bones. If any part of its body is torn off, it grows right back.
Pearl	It apparently had a huge shell for protection in ancient times. It lives in shallow tidal pools.
Platinum	Long ago, its entire back was shielded with a sturdy shell. There are traces of it left in its cells.
HeartGold	When its natural enemy attacks, it oozes purple fluid and escapes.
SoulSilver	When its natural enemy attacks, it oozes purple fluid and escapes.
Black	Long ago, its entire back was shielded with a sturdy shell. There are traces of it left in its cells.
White	Long ago, its entire back was shielded with a sturdy shell. There are traces of it left in its cells.
Black 2	Long ago, its entire back was shielded with a sturdy shell. There are traces of it left in its cells.
White 2	Long ago, its entire back was shielded with a sturdy shell. There are traces of it left in its cells.
X	When its natural enemy attacks, it oozes purple fluid and escapes.

Alpha Sapphire	It apparently had a huge shell for protection in ancient times. It lives in shallow tidal pools.
Sun	It has strong regenerative capabilities. Even if parts of it are bitten off by fish Pokémon, it will return to normal within a few hours.
Moon	Plankton, invisible to the naked eye, is its main food source. It comes onto the land periodically, but the reason for this is not known.
Ultra Sun	Long ago, it had a shell on its back. There’s now a vestigial plate on its back that’s hard but thin.
Ultra Moon	Their shape and color change, depending on their environment and diet. There are many of them at beaches where the waves are calm.
Sword	Its search for food sometimes leads it onto land, where it leaves behind a sticky trail of slime as it passes through.
Shield	The softness of its body helps disperse the force of impacts, so although its body is uncommonly squishy, it’s also surprisingly resilient.
Legends: Arceus	Eats beach sand for nourishment. Should one Gastrodon encounter another of a different color, a fierce battle will inevitably ensue.
