Template:MSP/8/doc

{{MSP/8}} displays a core series menu sprite for a Pokémon, and clicking that sprite will go to the Pokémon's species page.

The menu sprite grabbed will be from Pokémon Sword and Shield.

For a version of this template that crops out some of the whitespace on sprites, see {{MSP/8c}}.

Template fields

  • field 1 (natdex number) - The Pokémon's National Pokédex number. This should be in a 3-digit format.
  • field 2 (Pokémon name) - The name of the Pokémon, to allow linking to its species page.
  • form (optional) - A short signifier for the Pokémon's form, so the correct image is displayed.
    • This is generally the first letter (or first few letters) of the form's name or type. For example: G for Galarian Articuno.
    • If unsure, check this archives category for all valid file names: Category:Sword and Shield menu sprites. File names are usually in the format (natdex)(form)MS8.png.
