Lillie's outfit

First of all Hi!! welcome to Bulbapedia!

I noticed you made some edits on Lillie's appearance section and you made some huge improvements to it! I originally wrote her appearance section and I think we've come to a slight disagreement with what clothes she wears. Your edit summary says it's clearly not a sweatshirt, and the edit itself was changed to a blouse. Any reason you think it's blouse? short sleeves sweatshirts do exist, and Lillie's not only has a hood by has draw strings too. blouses do not typically have these features, and Lillie's sleeves and bottom hems are usually depicted in different ways depending on medium. I'd to see if we can find a better way to describe her clothes in a better way than just saying "it's not a sweatshirt" or "it's not a blouse" maybe just describing it as a top? thank you!

Hey there.
Thanks for the compliment. I changed it from sweatshirt to blouse because I looked up "blouse" on Google Images, and Lillie's top definitely looks like a sleeveless blouse. Why? It looks pretty darn thin, and definitely thinner than a sweatshirt. Another reason is that since Alola is a tropical region (based off the U.S. state of Hawaii, where the average temperature in the daytime is 85 degrees Fahrenheit), wearing a sweatshirt wouldn't necessarily be appropriate, considering the hot and humid weather. Almost every NPC in all four games is dressed lightly, and the only NPC I can think of off the top of my head that's wearing anything more than a t-shirt in the games is Wicke, with her pink turtleneck sweater underneath her lab coat/dress.
If you are confident in your opinion that it's a sweatshirt, I don't have any problems with you changing it back. I just wanted to help improve the description of her in-game appearance after she decides to do a complete makeover of her appearance in Pokemon Sun & Moon.

The Preview Button

Instead of editing a page several times in a row, try using the preview button to make sure your edit looks the way you want it to. It's right next to the Save Page button. Please try it out, so as not to clog up the Recent Changes. Also, if you want to edit multiple sections of the page, make sure that you click "edit this page" at the top of the page rather than editing it by section. Thanks! --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 10:01, 21 January 2024 (UTC)Reply

Hello!! Sorry about that. When I make a minor edit, and then I publish the edit, I sometimes find other minor errors within an article as I continue reading it until I've read enough. That is why there sometimes may be lots of edits. I will try my best to not do multiple edits. Also, thanks for the tip.
