Is pokemondb.net not Up-To-Date anymore with the PokémonDatabase itself?
What I do mean is that it looks like pokemondb.net only works on the online things here.
Because we do not have sprites for Stakataka yet, we don't have the gen 7 sprites with Pokémon that aren't from gen 7 ;etc....
Does this mean that the site isn't up-to-date anymore??
Because im kinda feeling that the site is only focusing on the online Community here.
I mean it's good to focus on the Community itself but also what this site is made for. Pokédex entries. And Pokémon related questions.

I'll see you next time!

I'm pretty sure it's because Pokemaster is the only one who really edits the database. Maybe if he gave privileges to Editors/Mods (because they're reliable) to edit in info they can gather (like a wiki), it might be updated a bit, but I don't know if it'll happen.
I knew it was you as soon as I saw the "with" in the title :)

Stakatacool that did let me know much more about the mods

Firstly your question doesn't really make sense :p
pokemondb.net is the Pokemon Database so not exactly sure how it would not be up to date with itself.

But from the rest of your question I guess you mean up to date with the latest games? Short answer is yes, mostly. You're right I haven't added the "sprites" for the latest Pokemon, but everything else is there - stats, moves, locations, etc. We were actually the first site to have most info up (before Serebii/Bulbapedia) for SM and USUM.

There is always more stuff to add and missing info here and there (especially locations), but that is slowly getting corrected.

Edit to add: you also mentioned the site focusing only on the community. I don't think that's true at all. The thing is, you only see changes in the community section because they are more obvious - new questions and answers. You don't see all the changes to the rest of the site. I've spent a lot of time since January adding and updating the Pokemon locations but it's not easy to spot and spread over many pages. I've also been working on some bigger programming changes behind the scenes which are also invisible to users.

But this thing is pretty weird, we have sprites for Stakataka in the shiny Pokedex list, but not in the real sprite list.
This is pretty weird? But i don't know what to do if im a progrmmer. So keep up the good work!
