:Wouldn't it be more clean to just put text instead of tables, after all that takes up less space, too. Style is style, no matter if it's the same between several generations or not. We could just replace Typhlosion's base stats with "The same as Charizard", the learnlist for most Gen I and II moves with "the same in Gen II and III", and all that fun stuff. But it'd look really dumb. We don't need to go to extreme measures to save bytes, we've got two monster servers.

:::Charizard and Typhlosion are two different Pokémon, That info is not as redundant as having the same thing 3 times. Its on three separate pages, and is vital for a person who needs to know what the base stats for those Pokémon are.
:::We're talking about the Move Sketch. The info is about a move that only one Pokémon can learn, and it learns the move up to 9 times with no change between generations. Redundant he same Pokémon, same move, same levels and same boxes with the only difference being the Roman numerals I, II, III, and IV. A person could get all they need to know out of one box.
:::We can 86 2/3 of the Move Boxes, Generation Links and Level Up links. Replace them with ''Generation I to Present''. It's make the article shorter and less asinine.
:::Also if I remember you guys get angst when someone makes multiple edits because they didn't get everything down the first time; saying it is bogging down the servers.
::: It might be the style to have a Move box for each generation, but most moves gain new Pokémon to learn them and the levels they learn them change. Clefairy's ability to level to learn sing went down from 13 to 8 from gen I to gen II. Even with Ditto, Mew and Transform the info changed when Generation IV came out.
::: You don't have to go and change ever move page, just make a exception on 1 (2 if we can get to the Transform article) pages where people can get the info they need with only 1 box if the info didn't change between one or more generations. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 18:37, 29 May 2009 (UTC)
