Pokédex entries

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

Red / Blue / LeafGreen / XAlthough its fur has many admirers, it is tough to raise as a pet because of its fickle meanness.
YellowThe gem in its forehead glows on its own! It walks with all the grace and elegance of a proud queen.
Gold / HeartGoldMany adore it for its sophisticated air. However, it will lash out and scratch for little reason.
Silver / SoulSilver / YIts lithe muscles allow it to walk without making a sound. It attacks in an instant.
CrystalBehind its lithe, elegant appearance lies a barbaric side. It will tear apart its prey on a mere whim.
Ruby / SapphirePERSIAN has six bold whiskers that give it a look of toughness. The whiskers sense air movements to determine what is in the POKéMON’s surrounding vicinity. It becomes docile if grabbed by the whiskers.
EmeraldA PERSIAN’s six bold whiskers sense air movements to determine what is in its vicinity. It becomes docile if grabbed by the whiskers.
FireRedHas a vicious temperament. Beware if it raises its tail straight up. It is a signal that it is about to pounce and bite.
Diamond / Pearl / Platinum / Black / White / Black 2 / White 2A very haughty Pokémon. Among fans, the size of the jewel in its forehead is a topic of much talk.
Omega Ruby / Alpha SapphirePersian has six bold whiskers that give it a look of toughness. The whiskers sense air movements to determine what is in the Pokémon’s surrounding vicinity. It becomes docile if grabbed by the whiskers.
SunIt has a violent temperament. It will attack anything that looks it in the eye. Its sharp claws inflict deep wounds.
MoonIt has a high opinion of itself, although not to the same extent as the Alolan Persian. It’s quite difficult to make friends with this Pokémon.
Ultra SunAlthough the jewel on its forehead appears to be a different color than those of Alolan Persian, it’s mostly made of the same material.
Ultra MoonThis Pokémon is popular with rich people. It’s also targeted by hunters who are after the jewel in its forehead.

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.
