Diamond	It sprays a vile-smelling fluid from the tip of its tail to attack. Its range is over 160 feet.
Pearl	It sprays a stinky fluid from its tail. The fluid smells worse the longer it is allowed to fester.

SoulSilver	It attacks by spraying a repugnant fluid from its tail, but the stench dulls after a few squirts.
Black	It attacks by spraying a horribly smelly fluid from the tip of its tail. Attacks from above confound it.

Sword	In its belly, it reserves stinky fluid that it shoots from its tail during battle. As this Pokémon’s diet varies, so does the stench of its fluid.
Shield	It digs holes in the ground to make its nest. The stench of the fluid it lets fly from the tip of its tail is extremely potent.
Legends: Arceus	Sprays a poisonous fluid to take down prey. Sometimes, unable to stomach the stench of its own fluid, it leaves the bested prey uneaten.
