Pokédex entries

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

RubyCASCOON makes its protective cocoon by wrapping its body entirely with a fine silk from its mouth. Once the silk goes around its body, it hardens. This POKéMON prepares for its evolution inside the cocoon.
SapphireIf it is attacked, CASCOON remains motionless however badly it may be hurt. It does so because if it were to move, its body would be weak upon evolution. This POKéMON will also not forget the pain it endured.
EmeraldTo avoid detection by its enemies, it hides motionlessly beneath large leaves and in the gaps of branches. It also attaches dead leaves to its body for camouflage.
FireRed / LeafGreen / XIts body, which is made of soft silk, hardens over time. When cracks appear, evolution is near.
DiamondIt is hot inside its cocoon. All the cells in its body create the energy for it to evolve.
PearlEncased within its tough cocoon, it endures attacks. It never forgets the appearance of its foes.
Platinum / Black / White / Black 2 / White 2 / YIt never forgets any attack it endured while in the cocoon. After evolution, it seeks payback.
HeartGold / SoulSilverIt endures attacks with patience, because the more pain before evolution, the sturdier it becomes.
Omega RubyCascoon makes its protective cocoon by wrapping its body entirely with a fine silk from its mouth. Once the silk goes around its body, it hardens. This Pokémon prepares for its evolution inside the cocoon.
Alpha SapphireIf it is attacked, Cascoon remains motionless however badly it may be hurt. It does so because if it were to move, its body would be weak upon evolution. This Pokémon will also not forget the pain it endured.

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.
