Backwards compatibility

This template is designed to replace {{Pokémon/3/Contest}}, {{Pokémon/4/Contest}}, {{Pokémon/6/Contest}}, and {{Pokémon/8/Contest}}. It has therefore been designed to be compatible with as many of their parameters as possible.

Along with the above parameters, the following have been retained to maintain backwards compatibility, but are depreciated, and should be replaced:

Depreciated parameter	Notes
img	img only allowed .png files. image allows any valid file, and is how most other templates operate.
himg	himg only allowed .png files. heldimage allows any valid file, and is how most other templates operate.
spritegender	Inputting shiny, male shiny, and female shiny will set the new parameter shiny to yes, and all other inputs will be ignored.

The way the template selects its image has been simplified, so the parameters back and game are now ignored. costume has been replaced with form. To show a game sprite, or other artwork, use image.
