It doesn't matter much to me, but I think adding that to each Pokemon's infobox may be better than making a unique article.

Lowest legal level for all of them is 1, except when legendaries, evolutions, and Ditto are concerned. It's little more than trivia, unlike the other stuff in the infobox.

I was planning on possibly eventually making a list of legal balls for the Pokémon to be in, but either way, if you're thinking something's hacked, the most likely way to see is to check where the Pokémon was met.

Well, I meant more for evolved stuff and legendaries. And it wouldn't belong in an infobox, I would think a "list of Pokémon by lowest possible level" or something similar.

Also, you forgot Unown.

Can the countdown for Black and White's release be changed to fit the earlier European release?

I think the countdown to the English release of Black and White should go two days forward, as it should be counting towards the European release.

EDIT: Ninja'd.

To add to this, apparently the reason why a European countdown was never allowed was due to the reasoning that Bulbapedia only counted down to the earliest English release date. The earliest release date is now March 4th, so there should be no reason for it to change.

Change the countdown clock on Bulbapedia to March 4th, there is no reason to keep March 6th any longer.

Surely you mean that because the earliest English release date has changed, then it should be changed?

And it has now been changed. Calm down people. The Bulbanews staff member who published the article (i.e. moved it into the mainspace) does not have any powers on Bulbapedia, and so could not change the countdown, okay? A little patience does wonders.

The level 31 Slaking he has in Ruby and Sapphire knows Faint Attack it also knows Focus Punch.

Those are the only two I saw before I beat him. Faint Attack isn't listed, meaning he doesn't have one of those moves.

It would be interesting to have a mobile phone app that contains bulbapedia informations, that way we can have information without internet access

Hahaha...anyone remember that prick who did that? I forget the name...

Anyway, an app takes money to make, and I doubt we have it.

Well, there's an app we need to investigate. AAA's Pokedex. Search it up. It looks like it uses the BP database, and it costs $1.99. It's seemingly worse than the other.

Can't you contact the app store and tell them to take it down?

Also, could you possibly run a donation process to help fun the development?

Fund development of an app with donations? How about fund the development of the wiki with donations, too. Anyone who contributes with good grammar gets five bucks per article.

Except then Nintendo would come down on us like a ton of bricks. Not gonna happen, man. There's no offline mode.

This makes it seem that a Bulbapedia iPhone ap is not going to be allowed by Nintendo and The Pokémon Company.
