Report minor site errors here (page 11)

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

It states that in pokemon sword and shield, the only way to get lucario is through evolving riolu, however, I have caught one and know that you can find them in north lake miloch.

Maybe I just read it wrong or they have updated the game, but this is annoying because I ended up evolving a riolu through friendship just so I coud breed it for another save.

Comments

Wandering Pokemon in the Wild Area are missing from PokemonDB's location guide, so you should use a different website for Sw/Sh locations.

Answer 2

Just a little thing that I thought to bring up. I think it would be a nice little detail that could be put into thePsychic Type page, and that's something similar to this:
As of Generation 8's Isle of Armor DLC, every Psychic type combination has been used, thanks to Galarian Slowbro.
It's just a little thing, but a nice detail that makes things feel more... cohesive and informative. Feel free to do what you like with this information, but I know others would at least appreciate this change.

Answer 3

In the Sword and Shield version exclusives it put Sawk and Throh as Isle of Armor version exclusives which they are from the base game. Even so, the two really aren't version exclusives as in Chirchester (City with the rock/ice gym) there is a trade of a vanillish for the other version exclusive.

Comments

Version exclusives mean that you cannot catch them in the game, however you can trade for them in the game.

Answer 4

This site says that walking has a 9% probability of meeting Minun in both Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. However, in my Alpha Sapphire, you have 9% probability of meeting Plusle and 0% probability of meeting Minun.

Comments

It's also worth noting that, if Bulbapedia and Serebii are to be believed, the chance of many of the other encounters are also incorrect.

---

I didn't mean that it's exactly 9% (I thought so, because pokemondb says it), but that there should be Plusles instead of Minuns in Alpha Sapphire. Nevertheless, someone should check these percentages and correct them.

Answer 5

In every route that contains water in Unova says that you can catch Red-striped Basculin in both Black and White but in Black you find Red striped and in White you find Blue striped.

Comments

This should go on the thread for the location guide... though I recently added an answer that points out a very similar error, so I'm not sure it's necessary you add this answer there instead. https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/meta/14511/corrections-improvements-to-our-location-guide?show=77265#a77265

---

They're not game exclusive they can just be found in different patches of water

Answer 6

On the site the point requirements for the rules to go away (for new users and the like) change. Sometimes they say you need 40 points other times you need 80 points. It's nothing major (which is why it's here) but it could be confusing to new members for what you actually need.

Comments

Who/what is "they"?
Are you referring to the message at the top of the page prompting you to read the rules page? If so, are you able to link where you're getting info on when that message will disappear?

---

It’s because you got a question closed, so the points increase so you can look at the rules.

Answer 7

Crabrawler is not included in the listings for all pokemon that can learn the move Crab Hammer through level-up. This error was likely made because only Crabrawler can learn it and not its evolution Crabominable according to site statistics

Comments

This site is usually good at keeping track of pre-evolution moves. I think the reason is that each move page lists only the Pokemon that learn the move in the newest games, and Crabrawler can't learn crabhammer in the newest games.

Answer 8

The site says that Dialga and Palkia are not found in BDSP if you go to their page

Answer 9

In the page for Altering Cave, it is said that many Pokémon including Smeargle, Stantler and Shuckle can be found. This is incorrect as only Zubat can be found in the cave.

(P.S.: it is also worth mentioning that in the data of Pokémon Emerald, it was planned to have those Pokémon in the cave along with some unused text that hinted at this, but alas, it never came to light.)

Answer 10

I realize that a couple days ago I made an answer that stated that some moves on the Legends: Arceus pages of Pokemon's moves were incorrect. I realize that majority of moves had power and accuracy changes for that game, so at some point could the Legends: Arceus move pages be updated similar to how Gen 1 Pokemon have accurate Red and Blue pages like Hyper Beam being physical.

Answer 11

Hearthome City

The site shows there are no Pokemon in Hearthome, but you receive an Eevee there in Pokemon Platinum. The same mistake is on the Eevee page.

Comments

Many gift Pokemon are missing from PokemonDB.

Answer 12

Shaymin Scarf Pikachu should be changed to become its own form of Pikachu in the Pokemon Go Pokedex (Similar to Balloon Pikachu and Pikachu Libre) because Shaymin Scarf Pikachu exclusively learns Grass Knot

Answer 13

The list of moves affected by sheer force needs to be updated for Gen 9

https://pokemondb.net/ability/sheer-force

Comments

There should be a way to automatically keep the list mostly updated, so Pokemaster needs to manually add only the special cases like anchor shot and genesis supernova.

Answer 14

Hello!
About Lileep, wiki does not specify that you can´t catch them in Pokemon Y, being exclusive to X version.
That´s it :)

Comments

To be clear, you can revive Lileep in Y. It's only the fossil that's exclusive to X.

Answer 15

Hello, there is an error on the garchomp and the magnezone pages for Scarlet/Violet locations. You can actually find these on the side walls of the Crater in Paldea and garchomp can also be a Tera wild pokemon in the west province. I’ll update this if I find any other Pokémon that can be found on the crater edge.

Answer 16

There seems to be an error on the page for Mystical Fire. Despite the fact that Delphox learns it upon evolving (something Delphox's page notes), the Mystical Fire page does not list Delphox as one of the Pokemon that can learn the move.

Comments

This is because those pages haven't been updated to Scarlet Violet, they're updated to Sword and Shield. Delphox was not in Sword and Shield

Answer 17

Snom is available at Dalizipa Pass. You can also get one from an in game trade
On snom's page, it says that you can only get it from breeding a frosmoth in scarlet and violet

Answer 18

Hey, I'm not sure if anybody is fixing things, or am I doing pointless job here :D

Unfortunatelly whole location is missing in PKMN Fire Red on your site and that's the famous / useless for emulators the Altering Cave in Kanto (Sevii Islands) - north of Six Island on Outcast Island.

As all other sources will tell you, you would need Mistery gift to find anything else than Zubat (lvl 6-16).
Which, as I researched, is not possible over PC emulators.
8 other Pokémon might appear if you do set all properly as for example in this tutorial, all details there.

All I see on site is Altering Cave in Hoenn which doesn't contain PKMN Fire Red or Leaf Green. So if there is any effort to repair that? Question Question Winke Winke xD

Comments

Only one person can make the fixes. He checks this thread periodically. He will appreciate you helping.

nice thx Fizz

Answer 19

Garchomp's page says that it can only be obtained by evolving Gible and Gabite. Garchomp can actually be found in the area between the Pokemon League and the Great Crater, flying around.

Here is an example.

Comments

Scarlet and Violet's location data is not accurate on this site, I would go to Serebii or Bulbapedia. PM will fix this eventually

---

Also in a rock area between medali and Zapacio I think. It's not a cave because it's open.

---

I found a tera water Garchomp somewhere, but I forgot where it was.

Answer 20

I just wanted to post an issue I found for Spiritomb on the site. It claims the only way to get it on Scarlet/Violet is through trade but it is possible to find one in the wild. It only happened once so far but I found one in the wild in Scarlet.

Comments

where did you find it? you have to be more specific than that

---

I found it in the Glaseado Mountains/Casseroya Lake: Socarrat Trail area up in the snowy mountains. It was at the eastern tip of the snow biome east of the North Province(Area Three) fast travel. As I was typing this I went to the area to get the name of the area and found another there. I read an article on GameRant that it can be found at the ruins south of Grusha's Gym. I decided to check there as well and found one there. It should be noted that it tends to defeat itself in battle using Curse and Memento so a Quickball would possibly be the preferred ball to try to catch it with.

SV location data on the site is currently inaccurate. It will all be fixed in the future
