Primal Reversion and Weather trio

I have removed the greater part of your edits to those pages since they matched information on Serebii.net more or less verbatim. I don't know if you necessarily copied from Serebii or if perhaps you copied from the game's script (and Serebii did too), but for now I'm just being safe. But just in case, you should know that copying information from Serebii's site is unacceptable. Even if you did copy from the game's script (or the ORAS site), I don't think that's really appropriate. The tone of our wiki is not the same as the game's script or the ORAS site; if you want to add such information, you should summarize and/or reword things to make it more your own and appropriate for Bulbapedia.

Okay, but I want help on those the correct way please.- unsigned comment from Jacob9594 (talk • contribs)

Mega Evolution Bios

Hello. I see you've been adding biologies for the new Mega Evolutions. That's great. However, please work on your grammar and sentence structure. I am going to revert some of these simply because the grammar just it's quite what it needs to be for an encyclopedic site. We try very hard to aim for professional level writing. Thanks!

Tnaks bro, I was hoping some will help me on that. Sorry about the grammar. Its challenging to describe a Pokemon's appearance. Appriciate the help. Jacob9594 06:00, 11 December 2014 (UTC)

Citation in Biology Section

Hello! When adding something to the biology section of a Pokemon page, you need to state and link your source in the section. Just stating your source in the edit summary isn't enough. Thanks! Crystal Talian 05:05, 15 January 2015 (UTC)

Legendary trios

The fact that Meloetta interacted with the Forces of Nature in the anime is insufficient evidence of it being the master. The games treat Meloetta as an independent entity, and it cannot control weather, unlike the Forces of Nature. Trios and their masters have a joining characteristic; Meloetta has no such characteristic. Berrenta (talk) 16:30, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

Fair enough.--Jacob Kogan (talk) 16:31, 27 July 2015 (UTC)

Height/weight trivia

I don't know if there's any sort of rule about this, but IMO it is only valid to consider types for height/weight trivia, not Legendary status or anything else. While I think we may consider such combinations for BST trivia, in that case, there is sort of a reason for it (in part because Pokemon battles around the fandom are often sorted into tiers which roughly correspond to Legendary and not; and in part just because Legendary Pokemon almost always have strong stats). Height/weight, though, only have a very narrow importance, so IMO it's best to allow only one qualifier for such trivia: type.

Also, please use "shortest" instead of "smallest", as "small" can be synonymous with either "short" or "light" and so can be confusing. Thanks. =) Tiddlywinks (talk) 22:18, 9 August 2015 (UTC)

As side note, few of what you added wasn't even true (Hariyama is as tall as Mega Mewtwo X and Flabebe is far lighter than Klefki). Eridanus (talk) 06:49, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

Okay. Thanks for the head ups. Also could you guys work on describing the Megaevoltion of Swapert, Latias, and Latios please.--Jacob Kogan (talk) 18:19, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

Plagiarism

Please, please, please, do not copy-paste text directly from the official website, as you did on Cosmog's page. This is plagiarism. If you want to fill out the Biology sections, please paraphrase instead of copying text directly. Thanks. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 18:27, 2 December 2016 (UTC)
