Pokémon Not Showing Up

I went in to change the sprite for Dragonite, it was showing Dratini, & I noticed that some Pokémon were missing from the lists. I went to add them but noticed that the code was there but for some reason, they weren't showing up. Can someone find the problem & fix this? Thanks. AshKetchumNo.1 14:06, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

They've been hidden because they haven't yet been confirmed eligible. Once they're confirmed eligible/ineligible, they will be unhidden/deleted. --SnorlaxMonster 14:17, 28 October 2013 (UTC)
Okay, it was just weird seeing code but no text appearing on the page. Thanks for telling me. AshKetchumNo.1 15:00, 28 October 2013 (UTC)

Unova Pokemon that seem like they Should be Eligible

Thinking about it, shouldn't a Pokemon like Volcarona be eligible for a Sky Battle, since it can learn the move Fly? Just a question, but I'd like to know if someone knows one way or the other. Arceus42 (talk) 22:46, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

Whether it can learn Fly does not matter. What matters is that its animation shows it in the air. Ataro (talk) 22:49, 9 November 2013 (UTC)
Only Pokémon with Levitate and Flying Pokémon that have animations in the air are legible. It's kind of stupid. ☆The Solar Dragon☆ 22:53, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

Banned moves

So I've added a bunch of moves that I've tested and found to be forbidden. I've included a list below of moves I suspect but cannot test due to nothing eligible for Sky Battles learning them, a list of suspect moves that can only be tested after Poké Transporter is available, and a list of moves I suspected but tested. Please feel free to add to these lists if you have any more suspects. If you have any requests that are possible, post below this post and I'll evaluate if it is likely enough to be banned to take the time necessary to do so.

Also, I assume that Metronome will not call any forbidden moves in a Sky Battle. --SnorlaxMonster 06:16, 25 November 2013 (UTC)

So apparently Metronome can call these moves, but they fail. So I need as many people as possible to get Metronome Togetic/kiss and spam Metronome in Sky Battles to see if they can call of these moves. --SnorlaxMonster 16:16, 26 November 2013 (UTC)
Japanese guidebook has a complete list, so the lists below were unnecessary. The page now has exactly every move that is banned. --SnorlaxMonster 04:32, 30 November 2013 (UTC)

Extended info in Triple and Rotation Battles pages

http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Sky_Battle#Locations_of_Sky_Battles

I sugest the same info for the Rotation and Triple battles like this, please --HoopsterJohn (talk) 18:25, 3 December 2013 (UTC)

I like this idea, and will take care of tonight. *leaves note for himself* Tacopill (talk) 18:07, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Bronzor/Bronzong

My Bronzong with Heavy Metal was denied entry into a Sky Battle. Are only Levitate Bronzor/Bronzong allowed? And is it worth mentioning on the page? --GoldenSandslash15 (talk) 17:12, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

...It is mentioned on the page. It says Pokémon with Levitate, so not having Levitate makes it inelligible. Glik (talk) 17:33, 10 January 2014 (UTC)

Sky Forme Shaymin and Sky Plate Arceus

Are Sky Forme Shaymin and Sky Plate Arceus shown flying in battle or grounded in battle and I don't have either Shaymin or Arceus. If they're touching the ground, then it's ineligible to battle in the sky. Cinday123 (Talk) 00:06, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

None of the editors interested/knowing of this page's incompleteness knows, which is exactly the reason they are marked for verification at the top of that section. Soulweaver (talk · edits) 00:49, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

Unown forms

Listing all forms of Unown really bloats the table. Is it necessary? --Wynd Fox 04:12, 11 January 2014 (UTC)

Trainer locations

Surely they should be linked to in the article! Right now we just have text. I'd fix that, but policy seems to be averse to header links even though they would be ideal for this scenario. —TheVeryBest 00:55, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
