Midnight Bear: It's because I think that their originality's evaporating if they feel that they have to add on to past generation Pokémon in order to fill up the empty spots in a new generation.



Typhloise: Definitely different from COD. I absolutely hate the jumping in that game. x_x It's like a tiny hop and that's it.

So basically I wanna be able to click gen 1 only. Then be able to click include regionals, mega and gmax. To have alolan vulpix, mega charizard x or gmax lapras. Same for gen 4 and mega lucario etc. Not asking for new evolutions to be in gen 1 as well.

Just the mega, regionals and gmax to be avaiable for gen the original pokemon came from. New pokemon entirely like pichu Something like wiglett is a new name so its stay gen 2 or 9. cause how i see it alolan vulpix still uses the name vulpix so it should be able to be added to gen 1 if i wanted to sort just gen 1. I'm not asking for you to remove regionals or mega from the gen they introduced in. Just asking for them to also be available for the gen the original Pokemon came from as well. With the ability to turn it off still for those who don't see it that way.

This reminds me that im really happy with my own handmade (non pkmn) website (shameless plug of linking it here), & I think as a teenager I had a dream id make a pkmn fancomic & affiliate request you.. of course, haven't drawn a single comic (not past the occasional 8-page zine) since I finished university. Adds to the thesis that any fansite is an achievement :-) The comic could still have decent legs tbh, im just not much of a fanartist these days. Alas, maybe a distant future where I choose to have fun again. 😂
Btw, the site address field doesnt accept anything without http in front of it, unless its a quirk of my url. :-) I suppose that goes some extra way in resisting injections? Not that I figure youve left the field vulnerable in any way.

aside from the header font (& its almost fine for the title!) & not thinking of this site as being babygirl pink in soul - i kind of love this theme actually…..

Highly good post, no notes, but please also accept my extra laudations for stubbornly (& unsurprisingly) hand-crafting your mommy blogging entirely free of robot slop

Sleep still works the way it describes; the page generally states the current way it works as the default and then notes where it was different in previous generations. There was one bit where it talked about the "sixth and seventh" generations that was meant to be sixth onwards and I just hadn't updated that sentence when I updated it for the eighth and ninth generation; I have fixed that.

Burns and poison have always dealt the same damage, I believe, unless it's bad poisoning.

Just so I have a clearer idea of what you're hoping for: how would you class cross-generational evolutions? Would you want to see Obstagoon in Gen III with Galarian Linoone and Clodsire in Gen II with Paldean Wooper, or do those stay in the generation where they were introduced? If the former, would you also want to see Pichu and Tangrowth in Gen I?

Most of it is in my webmaster sections! They're a bit old and some of the advice is a little out of date or not quite how I'd put it today, but for the most part it's still valid. Good luck with your site!

How does sleep work in newer generations? And I remember burn dealing less damage than poison

I'd love a feature that includes regionals into whatever gen the original was in. Like if I sorted to have just gen 1 I could include regionals like alolan vulpix or alolan raichu. I personally consider them gen 1. I consider regionals the gen the original is from. It annoying having to add all the other gens just to get the regionals when I wanna pick only gen 1 pokemon. Same applies to mega and gmax. I wanna pick gen 1 with regionals, mega and gmax included.

"Base Pokémon" is now one of the options under "Include forms", so you can exclude them. Let me know if you have any issues!

There's no way to filter them out right now, no… I could add that, feels like a pretty reasonable use case.

I love your web site. I've been looking at it and using your guides for the last 2-3 years. It made me so nostalgic for older internet that it made me want to make my own site and contribute something to the community. Thanks for all of the love and effort you've put in here. I will probably reach out to you soon to apply for affiliation.
