Pocket Monsters Green: The hex:C2 Pokédex description fails to be displayed!

I did some research on glitch Pokémon in Pocket Monsters Green.

I ecountered hex:C2 glitch Pokémon, and caught it. There were differences in Pokédex descriptions in regular and translated Green.

In the translated Green, the game actually displayed a description that don't seem to be translated… (1st image)

In the regular Green, the Pokédex description of the hex:C2 glitch Pokémon showed nothing but a single character… (2nd image)

Can someone research the game for this text and translate it?

You can't quite translate Glitch Pokémon descriptions, since they take their characters from unrelated data. Modifying them would alter sensitive data such as code, Pokémon stats, pictures etc.
