Hey, I noticed you're adding the availability template to Pokémon pages. Just a bit of advice: follow the style used in other pages; if it's a Pokémon exclusive to one version of a pair, you don't need to put "Trade" for the other version of the pair, just put in "(version it's in only)". And don't forget, there are three Victory Roads. Specify (Kanto), (Hoenn), or (Sinnoh), please. (see below)

This Pokémon was unavailable prior to Generation I.
Generation I Red Blue Common Routes 5, 6, 7, and 8 (Red only) Blue (Japan) None Trade Yellow Common Routes 3, 4, and 23
Generation II Gold Silver Common Routes 9, 38, and 39 (Gold only) Crystal None Trade
Generation III Ruby Sapphire None Trade Emerald None Trade FireRed LeafGreen Few Routes 3, 4, 22, 23, Rock Tunnel Colosseum None Trade XD None Trade
Generation IV Diamond Pearl Rare Routes 225 and 226 (Poké Radar) Platinum None Trade HeartGold SoulSilver None Trade Pal Park None Pokéwalker None
Generation V Black White None Trade Black 2 White 2 None Trade Dream World None
Generation VI X Y None Trade

This is the way the template should be laid out.

And really, don't rip the descriptions of where they are straight from Serebii. --TTEchidna 01:25, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

Like I said, don't take the descriptions straight from Serebii. Believe me, most people can't tell between the areas of the Safari Zone unless looking at a guidebook. Just say it's in the Safari Zone and if they want to find it, they will find it. And please, please, use the {{rtn}} template for multiple routes... --TTEchidna 21:07, 5 June 2007 (UTC)

When linking a Pokémon species, be sure to use the {{p}} link template, too. --TTEchidna 00:29, 16 June 2007 (UTC)
