Pokédex entries

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

X / Omega Ruby	They knock down flying prey by firing compressed water from their massive claws like shooting a pistol.
Y / Alpha Sapphire	Through controlled explosions of internal gas, it can expel water like a pistol shot. At close distances, it can shatter rock.
Ultra Sun	Its claws occasionally fall off, and it keeps a low profile until they grow back. The meat of its claws is so delicious!
Ultra Moon	It moves around by jetting water from its right pincer. It has a poor sense of balance, so it’s terrible at swimming straight.

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.
