Pokedex text update

This restores much of the 1996 Tajiri lore to the Kanto Pokedex. Sourced from Dr. Lava's translations.

You can see this as a more mature, uncensored Pokedex. It contains more biological details and relates the Pokemon to real-world animals. I believe this can enhance the "dreamy" feel of the region to some degree, but could be off-putting to newer fans.

Some Pokemon did not need new dex entries due to either sharing the information with the book, or being Mew.

Scream Tail's dex entry was also reworked due to overflowing.

Some grammar enhancements were also made.
