The Pokédex - Extended Fanon Edition

I don't object to you calling Zekrom, but isn't anything written on Zekrom, Reshiram, and Kyurem going to eventually need significant revision? You know, with a inevitable third version and all...

Yeah, you might want to wait until the 3rd version comes out.

-sigh- Very well. I'm still putting it down under my name on the Dibs page, however.

Sullen, if you get Zekrom, I get Reshiram. Just sayin. I love those guys.

I suppose I'll call unofficial dibs on Kyurem.

Would anyone here join me in pondering, by mere chance and good fortune, that it might serve a righteous purpose as a pliant record of our accords, to have an article that records the chronology and occurrences of discussion by this society on the matters of that which transpires in the Pokémon world at the deeper layers of definition of reality where our efforts of research are connected?

Ahem... sorry about that, dunno what hit me. I mean could we have a page recording discussion on what could be called "Grand Theories" that affect us all in our research for access by contributors? Like to make sure that entries are consistent with each other in certain aspects and that stuff... Something like FanonPokedex.Grand Theories Log, perhaps.

EDIT: I should totally go to the chatroom log and find when did we talk about it, figures...

I think it would be a good idea to have a place for Gigantic Arceism and the Aura/Obscura theory, if that's what you're trying to say, Silent.

I think all Legendaries should have one writer and then be group edited.

And I don't like the idea of "Grand Theories" to dogmatic and retrictive.

^ Actually, I kinda agree... But I think that most of the legendary articles have been written competently enough for that not to be an issue so far...

Still, those which form a group should have some talk between authors. Maybe making an article for the general details of the trio (duos are less of an official thing, and it only takes 2 articles to clear everything).

Does anyone have a link to the chatlogs? I'd add credits, but I need to see the logs again just to be sure.

↑Chatlog (for today). The calendar sends you to any specified date, but it seems to work better by directly modifying the URL because of the 'é' in the chatroom name. Just change the final part in the form YYMMDD as you like.

Excellent. Thanks, Silent.

As suggested to me by SR last night, I've decided to go back and index stuff from conversations about the articles that Thrombin and I have been working on, in order to have our ideas more easily reviewable:

Murkrow:

• UTC March 26: 4:44-4:56
• UTC March 27: 21:54-22:05

Gligar:

• UTC March 27: 3:22-4:53, 18:08-19:53 (18:08-19:02 contains lots of info regarding the biology and behavior of "Omni-Sacs, 19:02-19:18 contains a brief discussion on the potential role Pokeballs play in attacks like Surf.)

Druddigon:

• UTC March 26: 5:00-5:44, 19:40-20:31
• UTC March 28: 2:37-2:44, 5:05-8:31 (5:21-5:32 and 5:49-6:02 contain blurbs regarding the behavior of Golett and Mienfoo in and around Dragonspiral Tower that may be of interest to whoever's writing their articles.)

Does this mean I have to dig for the discussion we had about the Frillish Line?

I'm adding the Sandile Line to my queue.

@ Haseri: You're right, sorry about that. I'll replace it with something else.

Tracer, you forgot UTC March 26: 19:40-20:31 for Druddigon.

Instead of doing another Pokemon next, I might do Mistralton City

Not sure if this has been proposed yet, but How about we merge the Legendary Duos/trios (legendary beasts, legendary birds, kami trio, etc) into one link on the page or merge the three seperate articles into one article.

Mostly so we can save space when this starts filling out.

Also, i call the Horsea line and Kabuto.

@Yellow: The Splitter in me says no to merging the trios and duos together.

Legendaries are pretty distinct even within their own bracket (points at Weather Trio). I favour separate pages for each member of the duo/trio/whatever, but that doesn't mean we can't have a page on each bracket's mythology (for example, a Ecruteak Towers Myth/Research article). That is of course assuming the legendaries can be researched with depth enough to merit distinct pages (points at the Regis).

edited 29th Mar '11 1:30:01 PM by SilentReverence

I'm for keeping trios separate, the only reason why they should be is because there isn't enough lore in each individual member to warrant individual articles. If I can make three distinct articles about the Regis (who, arguably, have the least lore between them), then doing the same with the others should be easy.

Definitely; the lore between Dialga/Palkia/Giratina is vastly different despite all playing a role in one myth. Outside of that one myth, they all have at least one that pertains only to them.
