Report minor site errors here

Question

Decided to make a new thread myself for this so I can get the responses via email. Here you can report any minor errors with the main site instead of starting a lot of new questions. Things you can report here include:

• Spelling/grammar errors.
• Incorrect data (e.g. Pokemon with the wrong abilities listed, moves with the wrong power/type and so on).
• Missing pictures (sprites, icons and artwork).

As I fix the errors, the answers will be hidden. Try and keep comments to a minimum to avoid clogging up the page, stick to important things like additions/corrections to the corrections.

Remember, small corrections only! If you're reporting something more substantial than a missing picture or incorrect data, please make a new thread!

Please, post corrections as ANSWERS, not comments. Thanks :)

Answer 1

Please add that Zigzagoon gets the move ExtremeSpeed through Pokemon Box: Ruby & Sapphire Event in Gen III. It is given to the player as an egg, which later hatches to a Zigzagoon once the player has 100 Pokémon in storage. This is a list of multiple Pokémon

Swablu - Start of game, knows False Swipe

Zigzagoon - 100 Pokémon, knows ExtremeSpeed

Skitty - 500 Pokémon, knows Pay Day

Picchu - 1499 Pokemon, knows Surf

Is there information on moves you get by transferring Pokemon from Colosseum or XD?

Answer 2

ON registeel and regice's pages when you go to bw2 locations for them it says they can be caught in both bw2 but they are on version exlusives page.

Answer 3

In the Galar Mine, it says that Woobat can only be found at level 15 highest. However, I have just found a Woobat at level 16. Am I missing something or is this an actual mistake?

Comments

It's probably a mistake. That's what this thread is for.

---

There are some Pokemon that are separate from the regular encounter tables (which I checked and definitely say level 11-15). Will compile a list and add them when I can.

Answer 4

A few areas from Heartgold/Soulsilver are missing their fishing encounter pool (so far noticed Route 40, Olivine City, Cianwood city). Visiting the pages of the individual Pokemon shows that they don't appear there either (Corsola for example has no listed encounters for hgss, and Staryu only has one, lacking all the ones where it's encountered by fishing).
My apologies if there's an already known reason for this.

Comments

A lot of encounter pools are missing. Pokemaster is just too busy to fix them. https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/meta/14511

Answer 5

There is information missing for the move Bug Buzz. Bug Buzz can bypass Substitute but cannot break it. In addition, it does not affect Pokemon with the ability Soundproof.

Answer 6

The system shows tags, but sometimes some of them don’t exist! Here is an example with the “metapod” tag:

Answer 7

According to this article, personality is now used to determine shininess and nothing else. Also the list of IV judges still needs updating.

Answer 8

I think this is where I post this? Please correct me if I'm wrong.

https://pokemondb.net/move/fell-stinger this page says only the Sobble line can learn Fell Stinger as an egg move, but in OrAs I just DexNav'd an eggmoved Surskit with Fell Stinger. Surskit isn't anywhere on that page ;0

Comments

I think it might have something to do with a filter that only shows what Pokémon can learn a move only if they're in the Sword/Shield dex. This is probably the same for the other moves, since Masquerain can learn Giga Drain, but it's not in the Giga Drain page:
https://pokemondb.net/move/giga-drain

Answer 9

The Draco Meteor page shows that all formes of Kyurem can learn it by move tutor. However, Kyurem's personal page only lists Scale Shot and Dual Wingbeat under tutor moves, and Draco Meteor can't be found anywhere.

Answer 10

This isn’t really an error, but it is minor, so here:

Halloween 2020 is not on the “Old Designs” page.

Answer 11

When asking a question on pokebase that should be put in the rmt section, it calls it the battle subway, not its new updated name.

Answer 12

In the Pikachu sprite list it says the Partner Cap is the Johto Cap.

Comments

https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Pikachu_in_a_cap#Partner_Cap_2
This is incorrect.

---

*faceslap* I meant on pokemon db

---

I know that. I didn't realize that you were talking about the Pokemon Home sprites. In the Gen 6 sprites, it's correctly labeled as the partner cap. I thought you were saying it should be labeled as the Johto cap. Sorry about that.

Answer 13

On the Route 17 encounters for the Alola games, for the first block of Sos encounters, the percentage of Castform appearing in the rain just says 1, with no percentage. The next block of Sos encounters says 1%.

Answer 14

This page says that Blue-Striped Basculin doesn't learn Surf, Waterfall & Dive. But it actually does according to this.

Answer 15

Ambipom has baton pass move even in gen 8, but when check in baton pass move page (https://pokemondb.net/move/baton-pass), ambipom missing

Honchkrow can learn brave bird as well by breeding, and its missing from egg moves here (https://pokemondb.net/pokedex/honchkrow/moves/4)

Answer 16

Reshiram's page states under "location" it is not in XY/ORAS. While it's true that it isn't in XY, many legendaries like Reshiram are available in the post-game. Not only should the XY/ORAS tag be split, but Reshiram is available exclusively in Omega Ruby and Zekrom exclusively in Alpha Sapphire. The only requirement is to have a level 100 Pokemon in your team before its ring appears.

I suspect many legendary Pokemon in the post-game are not properly noted in their locations data, so it may pay to look through them closely. Serebii has accurate info on which is which.

Answer 17

the ability schooling needs to be updated
it says,
"Schooling changes Wishiwashi into its School Form, if its HP is above 25% and Wishiwashi is at least level 20. If its HP falls below 25%, Wishiwashi will revert back to Solo Form.

Schooling cannot be removed or replaced via moves like Skill Swap or the Mummy ability."

the following sentence should be added to it
"Schooling cannot be copied by Trace, Power of Alchemy, or Receiver."

and the ability trace needs to updated
it says,
"The Pokémon copies a foe's Ability."

the following sentence needs to be added to it
"Trace cannot copy Trace, Forecast, Flower Gift, Multitype, Illusion, Zen Mode, Imposter, Stance Change, Power of Alchemy, Receiver, Schooling, Comatose, Shields Down, Disguise, RKS System, Battle Bond or Power Construct."

Answer 18

Dig and Earthquake in their Changes section should mention that a Pokemon using Dig can not be hit by Earthquake in Gen I, but was changed in Gen II allowing Earthquake, Fissure and Magnitude to hit a Pokemon using dig.

Also, Dig's Base Power was changed from 60 to 80 in Gen IV which isn't mentioned.

Answer 19

Steel Beam is missing on Move Tutor Section on Duraludon

Comments

The Steel Beam tutor is missing in general.

Answer 20

This post collects errors posted by people who made a new thread instead of answering here. (The new threads are closed, but will be linked here.)

• 12/21: Inner Focus description needs an update, as from Gen 8 it also prevents the dropping of Attack from Intimidate. Source confirming the missing information [original report]
• 10/22: Nihilego, Stakataka and Blacephalon have incorrect regional dex numbers (relevant Serebii page) [original report]
• 10/24: Aqua Step not listed on Dancer ability page [original report]

Comments

Sorry, I did indeed forget to mention a missing pokemon on the Pokemon Go PokeDex. That being Douse Drive Genesect.

---

That's fine -- you can make your own posts here if you have new errors to report.

---

Sounds great!

---

Would you mind if I posted future minor errors here in this comments list or would you prefer if they were on the main post in general?

---

@Edensteeden If you ever see any site error, you can post a separate answer.

---

Some people like to post one answer and edit that answer if they find something new to bring up. I don't know what Pokemaster's preference would be (entirely new answers would give him email notifications, while edits to the same answer wouldn't).

---

I've fixed a couple of these and removed them from your answer. Sprites are a work in progress... I'm trying to set up a script to more quickly parse and extract new sprites from the Go data.
