Other artificial Pokémon

These were the ones I could remember being artificially created off the top of my head. Can anyone think of any others? --DekuScrubby 13:16, 1 January 2010 (UTC)

Does Vui (the modified Eevee of the manga) count? ~Maave~ 18:33, 13 March 2010 (UTC)
What about the Pokemon such at Electivire? They are evolved due to contact with certain items. And technically the Pokemon who have to be evolve-traded could be considered artificial, because they couldn't exist without human intervention. - unsigned comment from Supreme (talkcontribs)
What about Magnimite? due to the mechanical Screws and Magnets there must at least be some human involvement in the Species.Dragrath1 21:39, 7 November 2010 (UTC)
Pokémon that assumedly can only have evolved through trading have been seen in the wild (examples: tons in the Ranger games, some from the anime, and Steelix on Iron Island). Unless it's specifically stated, we can't assume Pokémon like Magnemite are artificially formed. There could be a natural explanation that simply can't be invoked by the player.
Also, you really should have put this in a new header, instead of one from a half-year ago. --AndyPKMN 00:31, 8 November 2010 (UTC)
I was trying to but couldn't figure it out (I'm new here...)Also I already knew about the trade evolutions(Love how you can catch wild Steelix instead of wasting your only Metal Coat...) Dragrath1 00:34, 8 November 2010 (UTC)

Castform

why is Castform in here? the only evidence I've ever seen of Castform being made by people is it's position in the weather institute, but I've always thought they were simply doing research on it and I believe since there are no Pokédex entries about it or any mentions about it being created by people in the anime that it should be removed UltamateCharizard 23:26, 24 January 2010 (UTC)

I think a character in RSE mentions it was artificially created when he gives it to the player. Taromon 10:59, 26 April 2010 (UTC)

Hold on what about...

Wern't the Baltoy and Brozor families crafted by ancient people I Know claydoll was but I'm not so sure Brozer was. And what about the Magnamite family wen't they mutated magnets doesn't that point to human influance since the magnets they have on their bodies are manmade magnets unlike Nospass's whose was natural. Also Genesect? - unsigned comment from EpicShadow (talkcontribs)

regi's

Weren't the Regi trio (and giggas) made by ancient man? Kingofall42 16:12, 26 January 2011 (UTC)

No. I am Darth Mewtwo... Fear me, and my team made entirely of Mewtwo!!! 04:08, 17 February 2011 (UTC)

Claydol and Baltoy

Some of their Pokedex entries state that they're made by ancient humans and became alive after they were exposed to mysterious rays. Why aren't they here? Ariano 18:17, 15 May 2012 (UTC)

Captions

I don't know what the policy is for captions for images, but the ones on this page seem different than captions used in other articles. In this article, the captions seem kinda long, but my bigger issue is that they pretty much restate the information in the article, making them seem redundant. For example, in the Porygon section, the picture is captioned with, "Porygon can exist as computer data in cyberspace," while this information is also stated in the text itself. Most other articles, however, just have simple captions like "Porygon in the anime" or "a map of the Sinnoh region" or the like. I wondered if the captions on this page could/should be changed so they would be simpler, less redundant, and more fitting with other articles. slimey01 01:23, 28 May 2014 (UTC)

I suppose it's because these images intend to show how it is these Pokémon are artificial, not just what they look like. I did my best to make the captions more brief yet interesting. —TheVeryBest 03:45, 28 May 2014 (UTC)
