Pokédex entries

What each game says about it, in the games' own words.

RubyBANETTE generates energy for laying strong curses by sticking pins into its own body. This POKéMON was originally a pitiful plush doll that was thrown away.
SapphireA cursed energy permeated the stuffing of a discarded and forgotten plush doll, giving it new life as BANETTE. The POKéMON’s energy would escape if it were to ever open its mouth.
EmeraldAn abandoned plush doll became this POKéMON. They are said to live in garbage dumps and wander about in search of the children that threw them away.
FireRed / LeafGreenStrong feelings of hatred turned a puppet into a POKéMON. If it opens its mouth, its cursed energy escapes.
Diamond / Pearl / Platinum / Black / White / XA doll that became a Pokémon over its grudge from being junked. It seeks the child that disowned it.
HeartGold / SoulSilverThis Pokémon developed from an abandoned doll that amassed a grudge. It is seen in dark alleys.
Black 2 / White 2A doll that became a Pokémon over its grudge of being thrown away. It seeks the child who disowned it.
YStrong feelings of hatred turned a puppet into a Pokémon. If it opens its mouth, its cursed energy escapes.
Omega RubyBanette generates energy for laying strong curses by sticking pins into its own body. This Pokémon was originally a pitiful plush doll that was thrown away.
Alpha SapphireA cursed energy permeated the stuffing of a discarded and forgotten plush doll, giving it new life as Banette. The Pokémon’s energy would escape if it were to ever open its mouth.
Ultra SunIt’s a stuffed toy that was thrown away and became possessed, ever searching for the one who threw it away so it can exact its revenge.
Ultra MoonResentment at being cast off made it spring into being. Some say that treating it well will satisfy it, and it will once more become a stuffed toy.

Official data here is present-day reference data from PokéAPI, not a snapshot of any one game's era — the Fairy type and hidden abilities arrived partway through the series, so a difference against an older game can belong to the series rather than to that ROM hack.
