Structure

Infoboxes

To make the infobox at the right appear in the article, paste this into it:

{{CharInfobox|
name=Name of character|
jname=Japanese name of the character|
tmname=Translation of the above|
image=Image, if available|
size=Image size|
caption= Caption for image|
hometown=The hometown of the character |
region=The region the character can be found in |
game=yes |
generation=The generation the character appears in |
games=The game(s) the character appears in |
gender=The character's gender |
footnotes=If any}}

If you have any ideas, please add to the infobox. After pasting, please put a {{clear}} before the Project Character Dex notice.

Article Layout

Under CharacterDex's new canon system, the games section of characters should go first. Sections should go:

==In the games==
 ===In {{game|GAME NAME}}===
  ====Pokémon Party====
   ====Quotes====
    =====Locations=====
==In the anime==
 ====Voice actors====
     * Japanese
     ** [[Japanese Characters [[Japanese VA]]
     * English
     ** [[English VA]]
     * Other
     ** [[Other VA]]
==In the manga==
 ===[[Pokémon Special]]===
  ====Pokémon====
 ===In Pokémon "other manga"===
  ====Pokémon====
==In the TCG==
==Names==
==Trivia==

Exceptions to the Article Layout

Despite the fact that all characters will be given this treatment, there are some exceptions to this new rule:

Characters who are anime-exclusive, ie Sakura, Daisy, Violet, Lily.

Characters who debut in the anime, only appearing in the games due to that.

Important main characters from the anime, ie Brock, Misty, and Giovanni.
