Welcome to Bulbapedia, TwistedMeow!

By creating your account you are now able to edit pages, join discussions, and expand the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia. Before you jump in, here are some ground rules:

  • Be nice to everyone. It's in the code of conduct.
  • Make good edits. Preview them before you save to make sure they're perfect the first time around.
  • Use wikicode and link templates when adding content to a page.
  • Use proper grammar and spelling, and read the manual of style.
  • You can't create a userpage until you've added to the encyclopedia. It's a privilege. See the userspace policy.
  • Use talk pages to resolve editing disputes. Don't "edit war," or constantly re-edit/undo the same thing on a page.
  • If you have a question about something, be proactive. Take a look at our FAQ. If you're still stuck, ask for help. The staff won't bite.
  • Sign all talk page posts with four tildes (~~~~). This will turn into your name and the time you wrote the comment.
  • For more handy links, see the welcome portal.
Thank you, and have a good time editing here!

The Preview Button

Instead of editing a page several times in a row, try using the preview button to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to. It's right next to the Save Page button. Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Also, if you want to edit multiple sections of the page, make sure that you click "edit this page" at the top of the page rather than editing it by section. Thanks! --Abcboy (talk) 21:53, 14 January 2019 (UTC)

Quality over Quantity

Please actually put in effort when making articles, don't just write down one line and call it a day, that is simply not good enough. Quality over quantity. We want articles with actual substance, not one line articles surrounded by colorful templates. Next time, please put in effort and flesh out the articles, there's no rush.--ForceFire 12:32, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

I've also moved your article here. Flesh it out first and then it'll be moved into the mainspace.--ForceFire 12:35, 18 January 2019 (UTC)

Edit warring

Hey, if someone reverted an edit you made, don't just add it back for no reason. That's what's called an edit war, which is against the rule. If you want to argue why it should stay, then take it to the person who reverted you. Ataro (talk) 03:34, 19 January 2019 (UTC)

List of Pokémon by origin

Hey, before you make an ambitious article such as that, it would probably be better if you make a sandbox first, so you could work out all the kinks first before it is properly created. I suspect the article may be moved into a sandbox by an admin. Just a heads-up on that. GrammarFreak01 (talk) 03:16, 20 January 2019 (UTC)

An article that covers origins is unwanted as it can be subjective and lead to edit wars. Such page already exists in the userspace, User:Reshi643/Pokémon designed after animals or plants, and it has been agreed that it should stay there (for the reasons I explained). And with above, don't just make an article in the mainspace, especially one of dubious notability, create it in you userpage first and then the staff will decide if it's worthmainspacing or not. Thank you.--ForceFire 03:31, 20 January 2019 (UTC)
