Specification of obtaination

I wanted to add "In Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, the Pokéblock Case can be obtained by speaking to a small girl in the Contest Hall in Slateport City. In Pokémon Emerald, she is in the Contest Hall in Lilycove City." but someone reverted my edit and said that "it's mentioned in the Item Availability template underneath". I don't think anyone will actually find this important information unless they dig through article links, which is not recommended. In my opinion, if one wants to find where to find a Pokeblock Case, one would look at Pokeblock Case first, and should immediately find where to find the Pokeblock Case.

When there is a template with a provision for each of the games, it should be pretty plain that duplicating locations outside of it is redundant.
Besides that, specifics are for the location pages. Many item pages list multiple (often many) locations, and it would get terribly messy to include specifics for those. So we should keep it as simple as possible everywhere. Details are only a link away. Tiddlywinks (talk) 14:10, 13 March 2018 (UTC)
