Pokédex entries

Game		Pokédex
Pokémon Ruby		Swampert is very strong. It has enough power to easily drag a boulder weighing more than a ton. This Pokémon also has powerful vision that lets it see even in murky water.
Pokémon Sapphire		Swampert predicts storms by sensing subtle differences in the sounds of waves and tidal winds with its fins. If a storm is approaching, it piles up boulders to protect itself.
Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire
Pokémon Emerald		If it senses the approach of a storm and a tidal wave, it protects its seaside nest by piling up boulders. It swims as fast as a jet ski.
Pokémon FireRed and LeafGreen		Its arms are rock-hard. With one swing, they can batter down its foe. It makes its nests at beautiful beaches.
