Pokédex entries
| RedBlue | While apparently doing nothing, it fires punches in lightning fast volleys that are impossible to see. |
|---|---|
| Yellow | Punches in cork-screw fashion. It can punch its way through a concrete wall in the same way as a drill. |
| Stadium | Adept at punching invisibly quick at bullet-train speed. It takes a break every three minutes as it moves around. |
| GoldStadium 2 | Its punches slice the air. However, it seems to need a short break after fighting for three minutes. |
| Silver | Its punches slice the air. They are launched at such a high speed, even a slight graze could cause a burn. |
| Crystal | To increase the strength of all its punch moves, it spins its arms just before making contact. |
