Approved Revamped /dt command results

As it is the /dt command displays information passably in most instances but I believe that its well over do for a general redesign for the resulting information that would also drastically reduce the amount of confusion and misinformation (Ex. Gulp Missile, Shell-side Arm (I'm aware that there's a bunch of other information if you click on the link but the very basic of the move/ability should be clear from the command description)).

As it is the two things I feel need to be changed/added are: Adding a 1-2 px border around the command result (I and many other people have a hard time reading some of the info in smaller fonts on moves and Pokemon because of the lack of differentiation between the result and the rest of the chatroom messages) | Using up to two lines of text for descriptions instead of shortening it so it fits in one (its completely unnecessary to limit the description to one line; it causes frequent questions for a bunch of moves and abilities relating to information that shouldn't require visiting the moves page (I could go on for a while listing newer moves and abilities that are more complex that have insufficient information in the description)).
 
The border and the detailed description sound good. Detailed descriptions might require grabbing stuff from client, though.
 
But it's a good opportunity to unify client tooltips with the server's dt output.
 
The client doesn't have tooltips for natures, but we could certainly include them in a revamp anyway...
