Diamond/Pearl

It sails on the winds with its limbs extended to strike from the sky. It aims for the prey’s face.

Heartgold

It flies straight at its target’s face, then clamps down on the startled victim to inject poison.

Soulsilver

It usually clings to cliffs. When it spots its prey, it spreads its wings and glides down to attack.
