Pearl / Y / Alpha Sapphire	It enshrouds itself with sand to protect itself from germs. It does not enjoy getting wet.
Platinum / Black / White	It shuts its nostrils tight then travels through sand as if walking. They form colonies of around ten.
HeartGold / SoulSilver	It shrouds itself in sand to ward off germs. It travels easily through the sands of the desert.
Black 2 / White 2	It shuts its nostrils tight then travels through sand as if walking. They form colonies of around 10.

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.
