Pokédex entries
What each game says about it, in the games' own words.
| Diamond / Y / Alpha Sapphire | Because it is very proud, it hates accepting food from people. Its thick down guards it from cold. |
| Pearl | It lives along shores in northern countries. A skilled swimmer, it dives for over 10 minutes to hunt. |
| Platinum / Black / White / Black 2 / White 2 | A poor walker, it often falls down. However, its strong pride makes it puff up its chest without a care. |
| HeartGold / SoulSilver / X / Omega Ruby | It doesn’t like to be taken care of. It’s difficult to bond with since it won’t listen to its Trainer. |

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.
