Welcome to the Cave of Dragonflies guestbook.
Aaron: Huh? I'm not doing anything with the background color of the page or the form fields on the sprite generator; it's just using the default styles in your browser, and every sensible browser should by default have a border on the input fields; if it didn't, all input fields on any web page that doesn't explicitly override it would be invisible. What browser are you using and have you messed with its default stylesheet in some funny way?
Mohacastle: It's not almost identical, actually - it's way darker - but the reason they're described as "colored in some custom colors completely unlike their own" in the gallery is to contrast them to the "Light/Dark" category, where the color change is only lightening/darkening their actual colors. To make the black Rayquaza, I took a normal Rayquaza and colored it black because I was asked to make a black Rayquaza; the fact shiny Rayquaza are also black is entirely coincidental and irrelevant.
SilverLatios47: That picture isn't really good enough to be put anywhere in an 'official' capacity; it's drawn on square paper, part of her hand is obscured by the hole in the the paper, and it was given a five-minute hatchet Photoshop coloring job with no shading that only barely keeps within the lines. I'm okay showing it to people who just happen to ask me what Mia looks like (here it is), but I'd have to make something considerably more refined before I'd put it in the Morphic section as character art.

The Calyrex option here is just for Calyrex itself, not the Ice Rider or Shadow Rider form. Does that mean that the catch chance is the same for both? Even for Heavy Ball, when Ice Rider is over 100x heavier than normal Calyrex?
My next essay might be one tackling the Venonat and Butterfree connection, actually :P
Butterfree, do not go here:

Jirachi!
That's what the Espeon and Umbreon page is for!
I also like the messages now showing the verification Pokemon. (lets go scyther!)
Thank you so much for making this! BTW, do you know any tips for getting happiness up on my Eevee in Silver?
This was a beautiful essay. The first two generation of Pokemon had a certain magic to them; not just because we were children, but also because the internet had not yet evolved into its modern form and the games were so flimsily coded. Some very strange things could happen while a kid was simply playing the game, and lead to amazing stories like this. I really loved reading this one. So long, Jolteon. Your memory will live on.
I believe Azurill was the only one, due to the specific unique quirk of having a different gender ratio from its evolved form.
Are there any species besides Azurill that can change gender when they evolve? Or any oversights/bugs that would cause a Pokémon’s gender to change? It’d be fun to make a party of the little guys XD
Happy to help catch that bug in the guestbook! I was wondering why the page 2 link did that.
Also I'm commenting to build up a party, cool feature!
No, this was a first turn move.
As I said, I know this. However, this says nothing about why this decision was made, only that it was stated in this book. For all we know off that snippet, Game Freak gave them some notes that said this because they were already figuring it worked like that - in fact, that’s what I’m kind of inclined to assume by default, since it seems odd a guidebook would just make up something fairly random and counterintuitive like that out of nowhere, and if the guide had made it up out of nowhere without consulting Game Freak, it seems unlikely Game Freak would have just been like, “Oh, welp, this guidebook made this up out of nowhere, guess we have to do it this way now.” The mere existence of a statement that Nidorina and Nidoqueen can’t have eggs in the guidebook is not evidence of why that decision was made or by whom one way or the other.
Copied it straight from Bulbapedia.
"Nidorina and Nidoqueen's inability to lay Eggs was established by Japanese media before breeding became a game mechanic.
[1]Pocket Monsters Encyclopedia: 「ニドラン♀の進化形だが、ニドリーナになると、卵を産む能力はなくなる。」 ("It is the evolved form of Nidoran♀, but upon becoming Nidorina, has lost the ability to lay Eggs.")
[2]ポケットモンスター公式ファンブック Official Fan Book of Pocket Monsters: 「ニドラン♀の進化形だが、卵は産めない。」 ("It is the evolved form of Nidoran♀, but it cannot lay Eggs.")"
thank you very much for taking the time to write this, i consulted it often over the last couple days as i finished up firered with a friend of mine. :)
