Spoiler links

I had to revert your edits to DP002 and DP003 because the links you put in were considered spoilers. I faced a similar situation before and the issue was settled here. Only on consecutive episode lists does this rule hold though. It's fine to do so on other articles, but not on episode articles. For example, Ash's Starly would have to be mentioned as Starly until DP013, when it can be addressed as Staravia, and then up to DP118, when Staravia can be addressed as Staraptor. --rockersk08 00:24, 4 August 2009 (UTC)

Link templates

It's good to see you've got the hang of these. However, I notice you are manipulating some templates to display what could be coded with a simpler template. For example, poison type is better written as Template:Type2 - and it's grammatically accurate as well. A full list of link templates can be found here. —darklordtrom 07:14, 5 August 2009 (UTC)

"Other Methods"

Surely trade-based evolution counts as another method? I ask as you reverted my edit, and was just curious as to how you came across this conclusion. Especially since it's mentioned in the Methods of evolution article, which is why I've taken the liberty of changing it back to level 1. --No-one is going to give you a lvl 100 Regigigas for a level 1 Magikarp. 20:10, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

The reason I reverted it was because it said level up, not just other methods. Turtwig A Contributions Talk 20:13, 7 August 2009 (UTC)

Fair enough. I'll fix it. --No-one is going to give you a lvl 100 Regigigas for a level 1 Magikarp. 20:17, 7 August 2009 (UTC)
