Wall for Froggyfrogsock (page 1)

Hey frog! I will do those edits. It might take a bit because I have no idea when I have time to boot up my PC. But I will! Just wanted to let you know

Yes they can join, I have had a reply from hallmar but still waiting on birdseker and tyo hopefully they say yes. Anyway the titles thing is a cool idea I need to think of one…

I realized I forgot to mention edits. Your posts should have all necessary info when you post them, but if you genuinely miss something you should edit it in as soon as possible. If it's not essential to the question, probably don't edit it in unless it hasn't been very long (more than 12 hours, imo, maybe less). Fix stuff like typos and formatting as soon as possible. Typos especially are something I wouldn't bother with editing after the post is more than a couple hours old, unless it's still getting comments and will probably be bumped again anyway.

Stuff like this is wholly unnecessary in general, and editing it in so long after it's posted is ridiculous. I think if you kept doing that I would have actually gone bald. In general, you shouldn't have to do anything to your answer after it's posted. Proofread before you post. If the post is old and you notice something you could've done better, tough, but it doesn't really matter as long as it answers the question well.

You're welcome! And that's a clever strategy tbh, you could totally keep doing that if it's working.

Ha yeah I guess I do have a lot. :P Most of those come from back-and-forth conversations I had here rather than off-site. A lot of people tend to delete wall posts, but I basically never do it and I guess they all just built up over time. Very few (maybe a page or two?) came from the day I hit #1.

Just read your profile as well lmao. Noble of Necroposters is such a cool name. :P

Yeah for sure! I think it'll be a little trickier now that more people are looking at old questions, but there's definitely more out there.

The main way I find questions are through the tags, the questions of which I go through chronologically. Answers from the early years are way more likely to have outdated (or generally poor) answers, for example. Here's one I did recently: https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/114722/

If you have a lot of knowledge in one department, like a specific game, try to focus questions with non-detailed answers on that topic. For example, I am probably the most knowledgeable person about Black 2 and White 2 on this site; I answer a lot of questions e.g. https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/124550 , https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/43074 , and https://pokemondb.net/pokebase/106291 .

Other departments like competitive information and game design hypotheses just come with time and experience. Good resources include Bulbapedia and Smogon, as I'm sure you know. I don't know everything about Pokemon, but I sure know how to look up a Bulbapedia page!

It can be a lot of work to 1. source old questions with bad answers and 2. answer them adequately yourself. It takes a lot of time, but you'll start getting a feel for it the more you do it. Try to remember what you've written about, in case anything changes in the future (e.g. I recently had to go back and edit an answer I wrote 5 years ago about how many Mega Evolutions there are). Good luck!

P.s. I read what Silver and HT wrote earlier. You're a great user and I love seeing people still take an interest in the DB. You're doing well. :)

- Mods can promote experts, so we don't need Pokemaster for that
- If you're active and have a history of making very good posts then you'll be promoted

the link you sent to Freeshy's Database page didn't work, and I can't find him, would you mind sending it one more time?

Hey, I wanted to check in. I know I blabbed a lot last night. You taking it all okay?

Probably because of its ability then. Shadow shield cuts damage in half
