Prinmander #323.4
These solitary Pokemon patrol their icy territories with diligence. The flame on their tail can withstand several hours underwater before POKENAME must surface.

Meowsea #52.116
POKENAME will roam their ocean homes looking for shiny objects. They will hold onto objects they like with their paws, using their mouth to propel themselves backward instead. Fishermen covet the coin on their head as a good luck charm.

[hollow nimbus]

Make sure you don't use a pronoun (such as their) before you establish what the pronoun is replacing (POKENAME)

Other than that, looks good

[hollow nimbus]

Same thing here

[jovial pollen]

Paradude #47.74

POKENAME spend time sitting by stumps of fallen trees. Many of them harden towards the stump as they sap nutrients from the nearby fallen logs and roots.

Nidolava #30.156

POKENAME's flames are so potent that it will begin to rot any nearby life. It's able to release a splatter of toxic grease that can set aflame any plant.

Joltu #135.77

POKENAME are said to be so fast that they dart through forests at MACH-speeds. Due to their light-weight body, it allows them to glide for miles on end.

ok i jus realized this thing's speed is 90 but its fine since vikavolts dex entry makes no sense

[azure wagon]

Aegiolett #329.416
In ancient coliseums, POKENAME fought alongside underdog gladiators. In the present, these Pokémon are driven to seek battle with strong opponents.

2 more for the dexslog...

might get them done tomorrow, im eepy now

[storm light]

Grorunt #277.425
Despite their bulkiness, POKENAME are surprisingly agile. These Pokémon are often raised for the leaves and scales that shed from their body, which are collected for use in herbal medications. The pampering brings out their vain attitudes.

[high dew]

I’m not sure where to ask this, but the autogen fed entries setting in the options doesn’t stay on. Keeps switching to off after I leave the options menu.

[storm light]

You can ask technical questions in #tech-support or #gameplay-help

[jovial pollen]

Lickislash #264.329

POKENAME's tongue is so sharp that it can cut through glass. It uses its saliva to soften down any opponent before piercing through them.

Warfa #8.173

POKENAME perch on top of stones near rocky beaches. They gather in groups on the night of a shooting star and then retreat back to the ocean or underwater caves.

[soft flicker]

I dont know if "flee" is the word I would use here.
Maybe something like "retreat" would fit better?

[rugged socket]

DexSlog #1 :Thrive Together has been completed! Well done and thank you for everyone that got involved, there were lots of heart-warming and clever entries.

Prizes
Most prolific writer: @azure wagon
Random square: 3, 8 - @azure wagon's Salamence/Pink sprite
Best entry: @azure wagon

If you have won a prize, send me a message or reply to this. You can request both a fused Pokémon to have an entry written for it, and a prompt/Pokémon to be used for the next grid!

@azure wagon - Ditto/Contains another Pokémon
A notorious glutton, POKENAME has been known to infiltrate candy shops to satisfy its sweet tooth. According to one story, a famous confectioner found this act endearing, and so went on to create the very first “Gummiursa”.

@rich goblet - Celebi/Underdog
POKENAME are known for using their psychic powers to predict the wins of underdogs in Ponyta races, disappearing shortly after the results are announced. Fortune tellers and gamblers alike search for POKENAME in the hopes of improving their craft.

@topaz wraith - Bidoof/Has a symbiotic relationship with others
When groups of Bidoof have trouble building a dam due to rushing currents, POKENAME swims in to temporarily block the water for them to build. Afterwards, POKENAME enjoys splashing around in the newfound large body of water.

@azure wagon - Golett/LOVE
The vases that are bound to POKENAME were created around 500 years ago. Wealthy people with lavish or very eccentric tastes have been known to use POKENAME as security guards for their homes.

@azure wagon - Bellossom/Chansey
Found in the tropics, POKENAME's flowers have a distinct peppery flavor that also boosts one's energy. One high-class recipe consists of coddled Chansey eggs garnished with these flowers.

[topaz wraith]

Thanks for selecting me as a nomination hehe, it was a lot of fun writing for these- good writing practice since I didn't have to worry too much about freeform
Will this be a thing every month? I'd love to try to keep participating

[rugged socket]

You had some great entries, they were a pleasure to read! And yeah I'm going to get the next one up within the next few days 🕺

[hexed fog]

I'm going in

[storm light]

Good luck soldier

[jovial pollen]

sounds better

ill use retreatr

[hexed fog]

@summer nacelle I am seeing a ton of entries from you that violate our rules on entries and it doesn't look like you have gotten any entries in here reviewed. (or even posted here a single time) This would have alerted you to the problems in your entries beforehand.

Should you wish to contribute in the future please post here until you understand what we are looking for in a dex entry.

[jovial pollen]

Hopun #187.532

POKENAME's positive electric charges allows it to propel itself up and rise a meter off the ground. Though it can't hold it for long, it allows POKENAME to avoid bug Pokémon that could munch on its tail.

[summer nacelle]

oh, mb

yeah thats my fault i shouldve really looked into it

ill post here from now on dw

thx for the headsup tho, im a bit stupid

[hexed fog]

posting here isnt required but it is nice so that you understand what we are looking for

otherwise we will just keep denying :/

[summer nacelle]

nah thats fine

[topaz wraith]

Thank you so much hehe, looking really forward to it!!!

[jovial pollen]

Caterkid #10.239

Deep within forests, POKENAME group up in areas where Electric-type Pokémon previously were . They feed off of the static left behind from them.

[azure wagon]

love a funny wip draft

[hollow nimbus]

Electric should be capitalized because it's referring to the type rather than just the quality of having electricity. Because you're using two words as one adjective (Electric and type), you need to hyphenate them to Electric-type Pokémon.
I think you should change from them to clarify whether it's feeding off of the static left behind from the Pokémon or from the areas.

Lastly, I think group up in areas would be better than group in areas to make it clear that what they're grouping is themselves rather than something else.

Ah, I lied, I have one more critique

Rather than saying the subject Pokémon were previous, it's better to say that the predicate occurred previously: where Electric-type Pokémon previously were.

Otherwise, the Pokémon being previous makes it sound like they stopped existing at some point

[jovial pollen]

alright, thank you for the feedback

relatively new to this'

[hollow nimbus]

All good
You can mess up as much as you need to before you submit

[summer nacelle]

Chinras #170.131

"This Pokémon is a popular choice for travelling the water at night. Its antennae direct sailors to steer away from it before they get too close."

[hexed fog]

So many entries

Still going through em

[dull folio]

Iziks in the trenches here lmao

[summer nacelle]

Gokyu #76.373

"The Golem costume on its head is too heavy to balance, so it has to carry it at all times. POKENAME like to hide amongst actual boulders and test if their disguise is convincing until they get spotted."

not sure about this one, can't point out what if there is anything wrong though, feedback would be appreciated!

[rich goblet]

Personally would swap the order a bit.

POKENAME has to carry the costume on its head at all times because it is too heavy to balance.

Something like that. The second sentence is also confusing, why would the Pokemon want to be spotted? Or is it trying to hide?

[summer nacelle]

i figured it would want its costume to look as similar as it can to an actual golem

[rich goblet]

Right but the part about testing if it works is confusing, maybe you can express it differently?

[summer nacelle]

ill see what i can do, thx

decided to ditch the whole 'test' thing since, yeah, its a bit awkward, so hows this?

"POKENAME has to carry its costume on its head at all times, since it is too heavy to balance. The Golem costume is made of real rocks, but it is hollow inside so it doesn't get crushed under the weight of it."

[rich goblet]

Real rocks as opposed to fake rocks?

Also the last bit doesn't make sense to me, since we already said it was too heavy to balance earlier

[summer nacelle]

yeah, real rocks for the disguise. it's a rock type after all so i figured it'd make sense to reflect that somewhat.

true on that second part, i could probably state something else like "... is made of real rocks, giving it sturdy protection against foes."

[rich goblet]

You don't need to include real rocks unless you're distingishing from fake rocks

[summer nacelle]

fair

so, something like

"POKENAME has to carry its costume on its head at all times, since it is too heavy to balance. Its costume makes for a good defense when in battle."

shorter, and less detailed as to avoid holes

[rich goblet]

You can have details, just gotta remember that someone who reads it might not have the same idea you have.

It follows all the rules though so good on ya

[hollow nimbus]

If you wanted to clarify that the costume is made of actual minerals rather than paper mache, you can say its costume, which is made of rocks,

As for the phrase since it is too heavy to balance

The pronoun it is a word that stands in for the last mentioned subject

The subject of the last sentence is POKENAME, while the object is its costume

[summer nacelle]

ahh

[hollow nimbus]

So you should replace its with the costume

[summer nacelle]

okay!

[hollow nimbus]

Then, since the subject of that part of the sentence is the costume, you can start the next sentence with It makes for

[summer nacelle]

that makes sense, thanks!

[regal cedar]

Hi @thorn ingot , I was curious about this entry.

"POKENAME produces its smoke by burning collected life energy inside of its mace. These souls then inhabit and control this smoke, using it as their hand to wield POKENAME for their own purposes."

What are "these souls"? (Especially if the life energy was burnt away?)

[thorn ingot]

they get burnt up and turn into the smoke is what I meant it to mean

Also while you're here I accidentally swapped my entries of 101.473 and 100.473 with each other so if you could please swap them with each other before approving them please

[regal cedar]

please use #custom-dex-errors

[thorn ingot]

Isn't that for approved entries only?

I mean I guess I will then

[regal cedar]

You might be right. My apologies. I give you permission this time, though.

[azure wagon]

Roseligatr #352.160
POKENAME has been long renowned for its dashing appearance and attitude. Gardeners often work with POKENAME as their sharp claws replace tools like gardening forks and shears.

fun mepp fact, i used this sprite as the "final form" of my (basically) roserade sidekick in a D&D game after it drank a potion to make it draconic...The sidekick's name was Fork and I had to include it somehow in the entry

[storm light]

oh now i have to hear the story behind this

[shy viper]

hey so i wanna try working on some of these dex entries and do they need to reference the original dex entries or can they be creative as long as they make sense to the fusion?

[storm light]

They can reference the individual parts of the fusion, I usually like to take inspiration from both sides and try to combine it

this one i did is kind of like that

[shy viper]

makes sense

[storm light]

As long as they follow the guidelines, they're pretty much good to go and if there's an issue, then an unown will contact you

[azure wagon]

Basically my Paladin acquired a magical pot that turns whatever plant that is planted there sentient. So we got a rosebush in there. My DM is a big Pokemon fan so it was basically a talking Roselia. Paladin named it Fork because it was the first thing she thought of. Fork became a beloved party member bc he was sassy and sorta emo (but loved my Paladin/considered her his mom)

Later it got a powerup to "evolve" into Roserade, and during preparation for the final boss fight we decided to empower him further by giving him a magic brew that gave him draconic qualities. Also, duing the final battle he drank a enlarging potion to Gigantamax and helped us take down the ancient blue dragon we were fighting. As his "reward" after we won he became a true Plant/Dragon hybrid.

I was looking through the infinite fusion roserade list at the time and thought feraligatr+roserade was the closest to what I had in mind/looked the coolest for the final encounter

[shy viper]

Shimantis #388.476
POKENAME uses its photosynthetic fur to take in sunlight to generate electricity. When threatened, a POKENAME will release a pleasant aroma that can blind it's foes so that it may run away.

so something like this be good

[shy viper]

damn these are kind of fun :3

[rugged socket]

It's a good entry, but should be 'its foes'. Also I'm unsure how an aroma would blind foes?

[shy viper]

oh yeah, it's is a dumb habit of mine that I've been fixing all day. also a good point

maybe "pleasant smelling powder" is better

[storm light]

maybe instead, have it be "a pleasant smelling powder that irritates the eyes of its foes", full on blinding them with a powder still seems a little odd, but imo being an irritant is much more believeable and still have it be pleasant smelling

[clear hollow]

Underwater, its humps act similarly to hydrothermal vents near which it prefers to reside. POKENAME sucks the water in with its mouth and releases it from its humps in a form of a black smoke that can reach up to temperatures of 1000 degrees Celsius.
Seadra/Camerupt 117.538 for Elusive Dex. Would love the feedback!

[shy viper]

That is true but it's also a world where Pokemon can normally paralyze, poison and put to sleep opponents by spraying the right powder around. Poison and Sleep kinda make sense through breathing and sleep can be like... melatonin drug stuff. Idk I've never really though of the specifics of this stuff before lol

[rugged socket]

Dex-tober day 1 - "Fang", Charizard/Klink
The two gears are separate from the body, allowing POKENAME to strike at prey that seem far enough away to be safe. The edges of the gears are so sharp that POKENAME uses them to sharpen its fangs.

[jovial pollen]

instead of "reach the temperature up to 1000 degrees Celsius", I'd say "can reach up to tempatures of 1000 degrees Celcius"

theres also some spelling errors, but the only one i can find is "hydrotermal"

*hydrothermal

[narrow isle]

POKENAME can detect earthquakes, thunderstorms and volcanic eruptions through the changes in the Earth's magnetic field which it can detect thanks to the magnets on its back . When it senses that something is about to happen the magnets in his back become much more powerful.

[clear hollow]

Thanks!

[soft flicker]

Dex-tober day 1 "Fang" - Sharpedo/Gengar
POKENAME is extemely aggressive, attacking anyone in sight with its fangs. Its teeth can grow back if damaged or if they get stuck in its prey. Anyone brave enough to seek out lost teeth can make a fortune selling them to traditional apothecaries.

Maybe a bit stilted in tone, needed to rewrite it a bunch to fit the character limit

[soft flicker]

Was very surprised that this one didn't have an entry already

[final bison]

Dex-tober day 1 "Fang" - Klinklang/Tyrantrum
When POKENAME clamps down with its massive steel jaws, it can crush anything between its fangs. If it needs extra power to bite, the gear with the red core spins rapidly, releasing hissing bursts of steam.

[raw roost]

um hey im making a dex entry and it says it needs the name of the auther (me) would that be Duskit the thing you first see or coolbuddy1432_56671

[final bison]

i'm pretty sure, you have to use your discord username so " coolbuddy1432_56671"

[raw roost]

ok thanks

[final bison]

you're welcome!

[azure wagon]

Dextober Day 1 "Fang":
Flyviper #334.543
When POKENAME hunts, it stealthily moves along below the sand’s surface. It then ambushes its prey, biting them with pointed fangs before injecting them with a deadly venom.

Might as well plug the link while I'm here.
If anyone's interested in participating in "Dex-tober" with daily prompts, check out my original post here!

🦷 Today's prompt needs you to include the word "Fang" in your entry. Happy writing!

[final bison]

thanks again Mepp, the idea is super funny

[raw roost]

Dex-tober Day 1 Typhvern #157.441
Typhlosion/Noivern, Wild POKENAME live in the sides of dormant volcanoes and are very protective of their territory. They often eat Rawst berries. When not eating, they like to fly around into other POKENAME territory to challenge them to see whose fire is bigger. The winner usually gets that territory, and they then sharpen their fangs on the new territory's rocks, the newly sharpened fangs often show off power and strength.

[soft flicker]

Stupid question, but shouldnt the word "fang" be included?

[raw roost]

it is at the top

[soft flicker]

In te entry itself

[raw roost]

or did i do it wrong

oh

do i have to say fang or fangs

is saying "Fangs" okay

[azure wagon]

yes and yes, you'll have to include the actual word "fang" in the entry and any variation of the word (Fangs, Fanged, etc.) can be used!

If you check out the google sheet here, it has some of the "guidelines" to help you!
https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1s7lginkXZLW1IVln4rU4BsX7xJrRxAbPwU5CSoyUVc8/edit?usp=sharing

[raw roost]

thank you

I had to shorten it to put it in the actual submission form

[summer nacelle]

Tremime #439.122
"POKENAME lurk in forests, creating barriers between trees. POKENAME like to mess with people travelling through the woods, creating elaborate mazes in the forest for them to get stuck in."

[hexed fog]

Just a reminder guys, saying in a dex entry that a Poliwag/Pidgey looks like a Poliwag and a Pidgey is not acceptable for an entry

like

yeah

it fucking should

now if it looked like a broom that would be dex entry worthy

[narrow cosmos]

What if wields a broom to smite its enemies?

[summer nacelle]

then it looks bloodthirsty

Godon #76.308

"POKENAME may look deceased, but it is actually alive and completely healthy. It uses its appearance to its advantage, capturing prey that decide to wander into its jaws for shelter."

[rich goblet]

I'm confused, what Pokemon is this supposed to be for?

[rich goblet]

I'm going to yoink this, may or may not share publicly but definitely using it

[summer nacelle]

golem and bastiodon

i could probably include something to put a bit more emphasis on like

the whole rock type aesthetic

[rich goblet]

It doesn't sound like a golem or a bastiodon, maybe focusing on the rock aesthetic would be appropriate

[summer nacelle]

yeah

[rich goblet]

Maybe you could describe how it uses its tough face to bash into things

[hexed fog]

@mellow wedge I noticed a lot of rule breaks in your submissions. Please continue to post here before submitting until you get a better idea of the things we are looking for in a dex entry

[topaz wraith]

THIS IS SO COOL AND YOU'RE SO COOL

[mellow wedge]

alright

[topaz wraith]

I'm so going to try and do a Mimikyu for every day

[summer nacelle]

"POKENAME may look deceased, but it is actually alive and completely healthy. Its skeletal-like body is tough enough to withstand blows from the strongest of forces without getting scratched."

uggghhh, internet so slow, messages get delayed

[rich goblet]

It's alright, no rush here

[rich goblet]

The first sentence doesn't add much. All it really says is that that Pokemon is alive. Maybe you could say something like

POKENAME have exposed bones that make it appear dead, but it still rummages through rocks

That way it is more active tense and packs a punch you know?

[summer nacelle]

that's a solid idea, thanks!

[rich goblet]

I try to lean on active tense so that the Pokedex says somethin

Like I (player) can see the sprite you see, but what about the pokemon is special besides that

[summer nacelle]

give it a bit of reason as to why it looks like something, or make it interesting in general, as opposed to just stating what it looks like

i think i getya

[rich goblet]

Yeah, Pokedex entries are somewhere between fun facts and animal documentaries

[summer nacelle]

yknow what, i'll give mepp's dextober a shot

keep myself busy!

[rich goblet]

On a Dex Entry note...

https://www.fusiondex.org/86.559/

The body of a POKENAME is mostly made of blubber, which helps it warm in frigid temperatures. When it reaches the point where it trusts with its Trainer, it will expose its soft and vulnerable underbelly for belly rubs.

[summer nacelle]

dextober day 1 "Fang"

Skartrum #227.426

"POKENAME hunts for prey along mountainous areas, keeping its eyes out for food at all times. Its sharp, metallic fangs are strong enough to break boulders like candy."

[rugged socket]

Going to close the vote for this in about 12 hours so get voting people, and a winner will be announced! To vote, just react to your favourite of the 5 entries below the original message

The 01OCT2025 Dex Update has been pushed out. Please allow time for your games to automatically update. This happens automatically and you do not need to hit Update.

[narrow cosmos]

2700 approved entries passed, that much closer to hitting 3000.

And then dying from exhaustion.

[storm light]

Dextober Day 1 "Fang"

Sedactyl #543.142
POKENAME rakes its teeth on boulders around its territory. By doing this, it both sharpens its fangs and leaves distinct markings with strong smelling poison.

[raw roost]

Literally just made this in the morning (the dex entry)

[soft flicker]

Lucky, the dex update was edited after your approval

[raw roost]

cool

[pulsar tulip]

dextober day 1 "Fang" - Swilava #220.156
Swinub/Quilava
The nose of a POKENAME is fine tuned to the scent of spicy mushrooms that grow atop sources of intense heat. It keeps its enemies at bay by unleashing blisteringly cold gusts of wind that have been known to leave burns.

the dex site has an entry i think but in game there isn't one so i hope this is alright

[soft flicker]

Yea, you can do a second, third etc. entry for a pokemon. It isn't locked to just one

You yourself can only do 1 entry per fusion if that isn't clear

[pulsar tulip]

ah alright

[topaz wraith]

Dextober #1 - Fang
Mimidile #373.158 [anschelandy]
While most of its costume is sewn, POKENAME's fangs are made from a Totodile's baby teeth. POKENAME tries hard to be just as intimidating as Totodile, but the species instead became known as Tooth Fairies amongst all Totodiles.

It has been done

The beginning of many more Mimikyu dex entries to come

[shy viper]

Gasprout #92.69
POKENAME's body is made up almost entirely of a toxic gas that resembles a Bellsprout. It can rarely be found in forests where it blends into the darkness in order to capture prey of any size.

This one seems good to me

[brazen river]

Hi why fusion dex sont show number of variant again ?

[rich goblet]

What are you asking for exactly?

[brazen river]

Before on the site if y see a Sprite under the image before y can see for exemple (5variant)

[rich goblet]

We use two sites officially

https://infinitefusiondex.com/

this one

And this one

https://www.fusiondex.org/

Which one were you using

[brazen river]

Before on fusion dex the site show under the Sprite the number of variant if a fusion have one

[rich goblet]

It still does

Did you try scrolling down?

Or maybe it doesn’t have a variant?

[brazen river]

For exemple on the Sprite of the fusion of absol and lucario dont see the number of variant in the scrolling need to click on the image for see the variant

Before on the site y can see the number of variant before click on the Sprite

[rich goblet]

You’re not making sense at all.

And you still didn’t answer which site you’re using

[brazen river]

Fusiondex

[storm light]

I think what they mean is that at some point, you could see the number of different sprites a specific fusion had before you went into its page

[brazen river]

Yes

Sry for my bad english

[rich goblet]

I think this is a question for whoever made the site

@chilly bloom have you made an update to the website recently?

[storm light]

Don't worry about it, I'm a native speaker and sometimes even I don't have good English lol

[brazen river]

But my problem is exactly y say before y can see the number of différente sprite on a fusion before click on its page

But now y cant see the number of variant before click on page

[storm light]

It's possible the site was updated at some point that what you're mentioning was no longer something it supported

[rich goblet]

Okay but that’s up to the people who made the website, not us. I already pinged the website owner and they may have answers

[storm light]

We'll have to wait for Daena to answer that though

[brazen river]

Okey thx

[hollow nimbus]

I know that Daena overhauled the whole site recently (moving servers or something)

On the first day the site was back, it barely had any functionality, but more of its original capabilities have been slowly added back

I expect it'll eventually be reintegrated along with everything else that hasn't been put back yet

[lapis cosmos]

Whew! Thanks whoever was reviewing all of my entries!

[storm light]

Prompt time! ✏️
Could we get some entries about dominance displays some pokemon will do with each other? What happens to the one that loses?

[willow venture]

Damn I haven't written a single dex entry in awhile

I gotta claw back my spot in the top 100

[jovial pollen]

oo this sounds cool

[placid sierra]

Should I make another Eeveelution fusion dex entry at some point?

[storm light]

yeah!

I could choose one in particular if you'd like

[placid sierra]

I'm not the best at deciding, especially when there are as many as there are.

[placid sierra]

I think that would probably be for the best.

[storm light]

This one!
https://www.fusiondex.org/197.146

[stark finch]

Kommo-o/Gardevoir "Komvoir" 473.287a by scium

Some say that their discarded scales carry an echo of their psychic abilities, and are seen as a good luck charm. A POKENAME giving their trainer one of its shed scales is considered to be a vow of protection, thus establishing an unbreakable bond.

[placid sierra]

I'll think about a dex entry for that, and probably post it here sometime tomorrow.(Tomorrow for me at least)

[willow venture]

Hmmmm

I'm gonna take recomms today I think

Does anyone have any Happiny/Chansey/Blissey mons you want a dex written of

Bonus points if they have a complete evo line all the way from Happiny

[placid sierra]

Sylveon/Happiny, Sylveon/Chansey, and Sylveon/Blissey.

[willow venture]

I already did Sylveon/Blissey actually 😄

Oh wait to be clear

This Sylveon/Blissey?

[storm light]

Happiny/Vulpix & Happiny/Ninetales lines of course lol
https://www.fusiondex.org/259.37
https://www.fusiondex.org/259.38

[willow venture]

Hmmmmm

Do they also have Chansey and Blissey evos?

[storm light]

yes! Chantales was written for already, but everything else is free

[willow venture]

Awesome

I'll be sending these in a few hours hopefully

[placid sierra]

Yes that one.

I didn't know you did a dex entry for that.

[stark finch]

Oh, that's kinda funny. My entry for one of the Gardevoir/Mewtwo fusion Pokedex entries was reflected in the game before the fusiondex website, when last time it was the other way around iirc.

That said, it took a good while for those prior entries to be implemented in the game proper since their acceptance, as there'd been a few hiccups between versions 6.6.0 and the current version iirc, at least regarding the implementation of new dex entries at the time.

Like... it had been fixed in 6.6.1 I think, so it didn't take too long afaik

[narrow cosmos]

I wonder how many people playing these days have come across some of my entries at this point.

[stark finch]

always a little fun to ponder, huh?

[willow venture]

Oh no I did the other one lol

[stark finch]

I've written entries for the two variants of Milotic/Gardevoir done by FollyGee, and an entry for the Gardevoir/Mewtwo variant by db.palette that have shown up in-game, and now I've finished an entry for scium's version of Kommo-o/Gardevoir.

[narrow cosmos]

It is. It's also fun when an artist sees one you've made and approves, that was a fun time when I got contacted because the artist loved my entry for their sprite.

[stark finch]

Haven't had that happen to me yet, but that sounds like it was a blast

[narrow cosmos]

Though POKENAME appears identical to Metang, research has shown it is inferior to the real thing in both strength and intelligence. Some anti-fusion protest groups use this as evidence to decry fusion technology as unnatural.

Had a little fun with the second line in conjunction with the first. I feel like there'd inevitably be some fringe protest groups against fusion technology.

[hollow nimbus]

Well, I know we had N yelling at us about it for a bit

[narrow cosmos]

The four swords of POKENAME travel across the land seeking adventure. Though not always in perfect sync, when they link together properly, their skill and strength is the stuff of legend.

(I never actually played Four Swords, or many Zelda games, actually. )

A dragon known for its stark blue eyes and its incredible destructive power. Reports are inconclusive, but it is believed only three or four specimens have existed across the entirety of history.

It is known to use its natural cuteness and bright lights to lure in and carry lost souls to the afterlife. If no lost souls are around, it will draw in other living creatures before tearing them apart.

honestly im kinda unsure about this one and im not sure why

but it seems good, just been workshopping it a lot

[soft flicker]

I love Pumpkaboo-line fusions

They have such a fun asthetic

[shy viper]

they do!

[rugged socket]

DexSlog nest entry goes to @azure wagon for this amusing and adorable entry 🎉 send me a message to claim your prize!

Congratulations on the clean sweep!!

[wise quail]

four swords reference

what fusion is it?

[stark finch]

My guess would be a Doublade self fusion?

[wise quail]

my guess is a double fusion of honedge

[stark finch]

then it would be a Doublade lookalike. Honedge is a singular sword.

Doublade is two swords, thus a Doublade self fusion is four swords.

[wise quail]

then what is aegislash double fusion?

4 swords and shields

coincidence, i think NOT

[stark finch]

it'd be two swords, two shields

alas, the only image of an Aegislash double fusion is just BIG sword and shield.

so I guess we were both wrong

[wise quail]

terraria reference

[stark finch]

neat

[wise quail]

ankh shield and the blade might be excalibur but purple

also they holding a book

that vaguely looks like the purple flames spellbook in terraria i forgor the name tho

[stark finch]

probably

[final bison]

Dextober #2 - Bug Type
[Heratales ( Heracross/Ninetales), #214.38, desnik]
POKENAME conceals a set of wings in its dark pelt, allowing it to launch graceful jumps. Its refined bearing makes it coveted for Pokémon Contests, yet its flame-handling skills and unyielding horn also grant it strength and versatility in battle.

[narrow cosmos]

It was indeed a double Doublade, I was on a self-fusion kick last night.

[soft flicker]

Dextober 2# - Bug Type
Pinsir/Scolipede
To impress a female and intimidate other rival males, a POKENAME will rear up and open up the row of teeth that are located on its neck and belly. If the rival won't back down, it will attack, biting down and injecting poison through its teeth.

With this challenge in try to look for the most spooky/unhinged/Halloween Fusions I can find
And I found a winner

[steep turtle]

isn't that just gaping dragon

dextober day 2, Bug types

Ninvile #356.262

"POKENAME are known as fierce predators throughout cold areas, however they move so fast they're rarely ever seen besides as a swift blur. They are as frail as they are fast, so they try to make hunts quick as to not succumb to the harsh cold."

[azure wagon]

Dex-tober Day 2 "Bug Type"
Scynoir #123.313
POKENAME silently wanders graveyards in the dead of night. It has inspired many haunting tales, often being referred to as the “Nemesis of Life”.

Any slay the spire fans out here?

Don't mind me, just another plug.
If anyone's interested in participating in "Dex-tober" with daily prompts for the month of October, check out my original post here!

🪲 Today's prompt needs you to write an entry for a Fusion made up of at least 1 Bug-Type Pokemon. 🐝
Happy writing!

[summer saffron]

Challenge: do something that isn’t a Bug type, with the prompt of Bug

[azure wagon]

Feargey #22.16
Despite POKENAME's belligerent nature, its small size hardly makes it a threat. It spends most of its time bugging other Pokémon for scraps of food.

[summer nacelle]

Mr. Tung #122.108

"POKENAME's tongue appears to be almost endless, as people have observed it being able to reach all the way from Fuchsia City to Vermilion City. POKENAME are popular among magicians and clowns."

[placid sierra]

Just going to make it so I can get to this a little easier when I go to work on the entry in case I forget what Pokemon I'm doing an entry for.

[placid sierra]

Oh, I was confused since when I say Sylveon/Blissey, it means Sylveon head, Blissey body, and you said Sylveon/Blissey just talking about the fusion in general.

[willow venture]

Yeah definitely lol

[summer saffron]

yeah it should be the way kriv said

[willow venture]

Also work really kicking my ass today only got to do real shitty first drafts today 😔

Hopefully next day I'll be able to send smth I can work with to send here

[placid sierra]

So for that fusion it would be Blissey/Sylveon I believe.

[summer nacelle]

Sunfetchd #192.83

"When a POKENAME flies over a farmer's crops, it's said to be a sign that a good harvest will come. This fusion is often mistaken for two seperate Pokémon, despite actually being one species."

DexSlog - Arceus & palindrome

Unown/Arceus
POKENAME is said to see everything with its many eyes. Humans should steer clear of this Pokémon, as looking at it for too long causes distress and nausea. "Never odd or even, the endless eyes are always changing," witnesses have described.

Used palindrome: Never odd or even

Guess the palindrome

[regal cedar]

Hi @thorn ingot

"POKENAME likes to frolic around while also swinging its blade wildly to chop down anything and anyone in its way. Studies have shown that constantly pampering it by polishing its blade will keep this Pokémon at bay."

This seems a little odd. What do you mean by "at bay"? That usually means "at a distance". Do you mean something like placate?

[rich goblet]

Never odd or even is a weird expression but it works

[soft flicker]

That has to be like that, that is my palindrome :D

And I think it fits, for an endless amount

[rich goblet]

Yeah but to a reader without knowing about this doesn’t seem to make sense

[regal cedar]

Hi @lusty chasm , I was curious about this entry.

"During the spring, POKENAME can be seen riding the winds, calling for lesser Policotts and Polinees to join it. When seeing this, it is wise to close your windows, for they will come and pull pranks, leaving stray balls of cotton where they visit."

What do you mean by "lesser Policotts"? Do you just mean Poliwhirl/Poliwag + Whimsicott fusions?

[lusty chasm]

I meant the Poliwhirl/Poliwag + Whimsicott fusions.

Was how I worded it okay?

[regal cedar]

I think there may be a more clear term than "lesser"?

I'll discuss it with some Unown in the meantime.

[lusty chasm]

I was just thinking... would changing "lesser Policotts and Polinees" to "its unevolved forms" work?

[summer nacelle]

i was almost gonna say pre-evolutions but i think you struck it right with that

idk why i feel like 'unevolved forms' rolls off the tongue better despite being longer

[placid sierra]

https://www.fusiondex.org/197.146/

The dark flames POKENAME creates glow brightly in the light of a full moon. When an unwanted guest enters its territory, POKENAME’s flames intensify as it tries to repel the trespasser with poison and flame.

Any ideas on how to improve this?

[regal cedar]

Unevolved I think doesn't quite work because they're still farther up in the evolution line? Hmm.

[summer nacelle]

Talonflame #372.372 (self-fusion)

"POKENAME's body is scorching hot, enough to the point where it can fly through most walls by virtue of completely melting them on contact. POKENAME's heart is said to be hotter than most stars in the known universe."

i feel like i used the word 'hot' alot in that, but not many synonyms do it justice as much i find

then again, i used it like twice, maybe im just a chronic overthinker

[storm light]

Dextober Day 2 - Bug Type

Suretta #518.467
POKENAME skate along the surface of ponds and lakes with graceful mastery. These Pokémon have inspired many figure skaters to imitate their moves in their own routines.

[mental osprey]

That's cell phone...

And the sword is a purple zenith

[soft flicker]

Maybe "many figure skaters to imitate their moves in their (own) skating routines" ?

[storm light]

I did have that before, but it sounded weird to have two separate instances of their referring to two different subjects

I might just have to participate in more of these events lol This is a lot of fun

And it's hard not to just fill out the entire thing in one day

[soft flicker]

Anyway Dexslog Absol & Palindrome

Seviper/Absol (Sesol)
This Pokémon can sense future disasters and will fight viciously against anyone causing such a tragedy. If a POKENAME (Sesol) loses the fight and faints, the poison from its fangs will always lead to the enemy fainting soon after the battle's end.

Used palindrome : Sesol loses

[azure wagon]

definitely look at the dexslog, thats another prompt based event that's a lot of fun!

[storm light]

maybe take out the too? It seems like the sentence works well without it

or replace with as well if you have the characters?

[soft flicker]

I do have the characters for that

If POKENAME (Sesol) loses the fight and faints, the poison from its fangs will always lead to the enemy fainting as well soon after the battle's end.

Hmm I don't know

Maybe it's best if I jut leave it out

[storm light]

or! maybe switch arounf the words

the poison from its fangs will soon lead to the enemy fainting after the battle's end.

always is a nice word to put in, but imo it could be replaced nicely with soon

[placid sierra]

I know this entry is not great, so I am asking on how to improve it.

[soft flicker]

I would note two things:

1. (To maybe expand the entry) How does it create the fire? And where is its territory?

2. (Logic question) you mention that the flame keeps out intruders, and in the next part include poison. It kinda sounds like the flame is poisoning people

@placid sierra forgot the Ping

Ooooo I now notice that the "it" and the poison in the second sentence is not for the flame but for the Pokémon
Maybe that could be made more clear? Some thing like: "enter its territory, the flames intensify as POKENAME tries to repel the tresspasser"

[placid sierra]

The poison is to reference Umbreon's close relation to poison.(It has too many dex entries that talk about poison to ignore)

https://www.fusiondex.org/197.146/
The dark flames POKENAME creates a bright glow in the light of a full moon. When an unwanted guest enters its domain, the flames intensify as POKENAME tries to repel the trespasser with flames.

Is this good?

I'm not great at this.

[thorn ingot]

Yes that’s how I meant at bay to mean

[lusty chasm]

It might just be me, but I feel like the middle sentence breaks the flow a bit. Maybe try integrating it more into one of the other sentences? Other than that, it looks pretty good.

[wise quail]

bro i thought the moon on this was an eye doing this -.<

[rugged socket]

Very clever!

[summer nacelle]

Xachan #178.107

"Though many boxers like to spar with Hitmonchan, only the best in the world try to do so with a POKENAME. Their psychic power allows them to see attacks before the opponent even thinks about performing them, giving POKENAME a massive edge in combat."

[rich goblet]

I like this entry

[placid sierra]

Nothing you're saying makes any sense.

How is what you said supposed to help me with the dex entry?

[rich goblet]

I think it was just a general comment, also I'll give a glance at it right now 😄

[placid sierra]

I didn't need to be pinged for that message if it was just a comment on the dex entry.

[rich goblet]

creates glow brightly is not grammatically correct

If we want to keep creates it should be:

creates a bright glow

Also changing home to domain would make more sense because it is a legendary pokemon and would have a bigger influence than just home

EDIT: Also flame to flames

[rich goblet]

Some people like pinging other people, I dunno why

[placid sierra]

It is meant to be the flames that the Pokemon creates are glowing brighter in the light of a full moon, but I may have incorrectly gotten that point across.

[rich goblet]

No that part is clear, its just grammar really, little things

Oh one second let me see the edit

I would say that's good to go

[summer nacelle]

i dont mean to be picky but is this still correct?

im no grammar nerd but it still looks like it could use tweaking

[placid sierra]

That is what I'm wondering, because it doesn't feel right with the way the words are ordered and everything.

[summer nacelle]

maybe an 'on' in between 'flames' and 'POKENAME'?

and then replacing 'creates' with 'create' as a result?

[placid sierra]

This is an alternate one I thought of too:
The dark flames created by POKENAME glow brightly in the light of a full moon. When an unwanted guest enters its domain, the flames intensify as POKENAME tries to repel the trespasser with flames.

[rich goblet]

If you want to rearrange it, it would be

"POKENAME creates dark flames that glow brightly in the light of a full moon."

[summer nacelle]

gonna sleep but ill drop one last thing rq

Kabugle #141.235

"These Pokémon are known for their expert carving skills, and are precise with their work. POKENAME engrave their work with unique signatures consisting of a pattern of scratches unique to each individual."

[rich goblet]

Immediately I would prefer 'carve' or 'engrave' over denote, given the context of Smeargle and art. Also, you don't need the quote around signatures.

[placid sierra]

POKENAME creates dark flames that glow brightly in the light of a full moon. When an unwanted guest enters its domain, the flames intensify as POKENAME tries to repel the trespasser with its flames.
Is this better?

Before I submit the entry I want to make sure that it's good.

[midnight siren]

I would suggest changing “made only by one member of each species” to “unique to each individual.” for flow purposes and clarity

[midnight siren]

I would suggest making the end of the second sentence “with its flames”, I don’t see anything otherwise personally

[wise quail]

shulk from xenoblade chronicles

[rich goblet]

Please do not ping people in this channel unless you have feedback or advice

[wise quail]

sorry

[rich goblet]

It's okay, this is a channel for talking about writing pokedex entries for the game, so we like to keep it on topic. You didn't know and that's okay

[wise quail]

the thing i pinged has a good entry

it reminded me of what i said and i have a habit of typing what im thinking atm

a habit i need to break

[topaz wraith]

Almost forgot to do my Dextober today!

Day #2 - Bug-type
Mimipie #373.10 [etacarbomba]
Despite its appearance being close to Caterpie, POKENAME doesn't specifically want to mimic Caterpie but just any bug in general. With Caterpie as the base, POKENAME also grows several spindly legs to spice up its appearance as a fearsome bug.

[wise quail]

Thats a good dex entry!

[topaz wraith]

Thank youuuu!!

[rich goblet]

I like the idea, though the grammar needs some work, you don't mind if I help you revise a few parts do you?

[topaz wraith]

Nah, no need- I'm actually an English teacher in training so my grammar can be much better, I'm mostly just rough drafting/not fretting about it too much

[rich goblet]

Cool cool, just making sure before I do (or do not)

[topaz wraith]

Yee no prob! I appreciate you asking

[storm light]

Why is he so little I need

It's almost terrifying though because of the Mimikyu aspect of the fusion, with noone knowing what it looks like beneath the cloth. The eyes staring at you are so evil looking lol

[topaz wraith]

Despite its appearance resembling Caterpie, POKENAME doesn't want to mimic Caterpie in specific. As it uses Caterpie as the base, POKENAME grows several spindly legs and spices up its appearance as a fearsome bug.

Hope that's a lil better- again I don't wanna fret about grammar too much since I can be a stickler for it ^^;

[topaz wraith]

Thank you hehe- that's always been why Mimikyu's my favorite pokemon, it can easily be terrifying as it is adorable

[storm light]

I also have a friend who adores Mimikyu, I even made her a crocheted trans pride colored one and she has it on her desk lol I like the little guy, but my favorite will always and forever be Ninetales <3

Yall better watch out if the Popplio line ever gets added to IF, there will be a flood of entries from me on them

[topaz wraith]

OH THE CROCHETED TRANS PRIDE MIMIKYU SOUNDS SUPER CUTE NICE!!! Ninetales is a very solid pick though of favorites
Hopefully we get Alolan starters soon- Rowlet's my favorite line so I'd be very pleased

[azure wagon]

[hollow nimbus]

That's... not really a rule 😅

If people don't want to recieve pings, they can enter Do Not Disturb mode

It's okay to get off-topic for one or two sentences

[rich goblet]

Ah heck, my brain is mixing up server rules

Sorry about that

[hollow nimbus]

It's just when the whole conversation gets derailed that it's a problem

[rich goblet]

Understood

[hexed fog]

I would love to hear about some pokemon that are active ingredients in roasts. Describe the taste/texture and be sure it pertains to both halves of the fusion

[rich goblet]

https://www.fusiondex.org/279.83/

POKENAME are popular in a pot roast dish because of its tender meat, which pairs well with the delicate sweetness of leeks. A bite of juicy, savory POKENAME draws in many children to the family table.

[hollow nimbus]

Or about some pokemon that are the subjects of roasts
Pokémon that people love to hate on

[hexed fog]

Chicken shouldn't be mentioned

[hollow nimbus]

It can be mentioned

[hexed fog]

Wait what

[hollow nimbus]

The FAQ says animals can be mentioned

[hexed fog]

Since when

Oh god

[hollow nimbus]

Since the beginning

It was one of the first few faq

[azure wagon]

Grumchamp #540.68
POKENAME's savagery makes them extremely dangerous, but their delicious meat fetch prices that are well worth the risk. Many covet its firm yet juicy texture when roasted, claiming that the more one chews, the more delicious the taste.

[hexed fog]

Oh god

[hollow nimbus]

However

[rich goblet]

However?

[hollow nimbus]

I don't think the way it was being used is quite correct

Because it's not a chicken

It's a Pokémon

[rich goblet]

So I fixed it

[hollow nimbus]

But you could theoretically say it tastes like chicken

[hexed fog]

Your face is chicken

I am a very tired Izik

[thorn ingot]

Is very tired Izik chicken though 🤔

[narrow cosmos]

For whoever was leaving the notes on the approved tab, for the 137.137c, I think that effect is called artifacting? I'm not sure myself. And also, yes, that dragon is a Yugioh reference, some depictions make it seem much more on the blue side of blueish-white.

Thought I'd clarify, but I have no way of knowing which Unown left the notes.

Also for 224.224.png, appreciate the editing, but now we have a grammar issue.

"After fusing, POKENAME now sports armor plating to help its resilience in standing its ground and firing powerful ink shots at foes. There exist some records that indicate this may have was once been POKENAME's natural form."

"may have was once been" should probably just be "may have once been," yeah?

[tiny grail]

Wailper

Wailper’s cheerful nature keeps it floating serenely atop the waves. Its enormous lungs allow it to stay buoyant even in stormy seas, while the frilled gills on its head sense shifts in water pressure to avoid danger. Despite its size, it loves playing with smaller water Pokémon and often carries them on its back as it drifts along ocean currents

What do you guys think?

[craggy beacon]

too long

and i will say, i know you're the spriter, but a dex entry can't be made for that specific sprite until that sprite is in game

[tiny grail]

Known as a gentle friend of the seas, POKENAME floats serenely atop the waves. Its playful nature sometimes causes it to stir the water, rocking nearby vessels without meaning to.

[tiny grail]

Better?

[final bison]

Dex-tober #3 - "Ancient"
Lunatone/Claydol ( 544.551 ) by monolithyk
POKENAME is an ancient and mysterious being born from meteoric remnants that crashed into the desert dunes. It feeds on lunar light for strength, achieving its greatest power under the brilliance of a full moon.

[soft flicker]

In the first sentence I think it's "remnants that crashed"?

And in my opinion the last sentence could alternatively written as "power under the brilliance of a full moon"

Dextober 3 - "Ancient"
Marowak/Aerodactyl
Despite its tattered wings, POKENAME can take to the skies, catching spiraling winds that take it high above. It's able to fly in the ozone layer as the lack of air and the building pressure doesn't affect its ancient bones.

[summer nacelle]

dextober 3 "Ancient"

Cofasian #362.53

"During ancient times, these Pokémon were seen as the embodiments of gods in some regions. POKENAME's face is said to be permanently etched into the memory of anyone who sees it."

[azure wagon]

Dextober Day 3 "Ancient"- Regidactyl #447.142
POKENAME are found guarding the remnants of ancient desert civilizations. It holds a fearsome visage to drive away any intruders and enemies.

[azure wagon]

Another day, another plug!

If anyone's interested in participating in "Dex-tober" with daily prompts for the month of October, check out the original post here!

Today's prompt needs you to include the word "Ancient" in your entry. As always, Happy writing!

[hollow nimbus]

You just can't submit a dex entry for it yet

But I do encourage spriters to write entries and save them to be submitted later

[craggy beacon]

This is trueroaches

[hollow nimbus]

trueroaches?

Team Barboach infested your brain or smth?

[narrow cosmos]

One of the hardiest and most tenacious species of the ancient world, POKENAME was a highly opportunistic scavenger. It would wait until bigger hunters caught their prey before stunning them with electricity and swiping their meal.

Gave a Dex-tober a shot with that "ancient" prompt.

[chilly escarp]

"POKENAME dwells deep underground, where it drills through stone with its spined shell. Ancient records claim entire caverns have collapsed after its restless movements."

Alt entry

"Said to be the cursed evolution of a fossil Pokémon, POKENAME's armored shell hardens with age until even steel cannot pierce it. When it surfaces, earthquakes soon follow."

[azure wagon]

Milfeon #241.271
The substance that drips down from POKENAME's tail is not milk, but a unique sap. It is quite nutritious and sweet, with gourmands noting its rich earthy and floral notes.

[soft flicker]

Would this count for Dexslog "used in the space race"?

Carbink/Minior Meteor
When a POKENAME hatches from an egg it is very vulnerable, as its diamonds only form over time in the pressure of the ozone layer where it lives. From this data scientists have deduced the pressure present in the upper atmosphere and outer space.

Don't have enough characters to include "space race" or anything similar

[rich goblet]

diamons? Is that a word?

[soft flicker]

Oh forgot the d

[storm light]

Dextober Day 3 - "Ancient"

Treizard #439.6
Depictions of POKENAME appear in ancient texts describing it as a menacing deity of the forest. Those who took from the forest without recompense were met with awful fires burning their villages.

[soft flicker]

Bit of a rewrite

[rugged socket]

Yeah defo, can't get to space without understanding how the atmosphere works

[soft flicker]

Triple battle for the Dexslog, go!

1. "Glow" - Minior Meteor/Flareon
   Underneath the hard outer shell, POKENAME's inner molten core can reach temperatures up to 900 degrees Celcius. Any part that isn't obscured by its shell glows a soft orange color due to the immense heat.

2. Sprite has sparkles or glows - Minior Meteor/Glaceon
   Any water molecules in the immediate vicinity of this Pokémon freeze into tiny snow flakes. If the light hits these snow flakes in the right way, it looks like the POKENAME is surrounded by a radiant cloud of mist.

3. Sprite is yellow - Minior Meteor/Jolteon
   Should a POKENAME ever lose its protective outer shell, the massive amount of electrons stored in its exposed inner core will immediately result in a lightning strike. Afterwards it will flee as the enemy either fainted or is left paralyzed.

Bucklin did a very good job with all the Minior Meteor/Eveelution Sprites

[rugged socket]

These are so good!

[placid sierra]

I like those sprites and the dex entries just to let you know.

[soft flicker]

"The massive amount of electrons stored in its exposed inner core will result in lightning..."
Now that I'm reading over it, does that make sense? Or am I just tired

either way, goodnight folks

[storm light]

I'm wondering if I should wait til the end of october to submit my dextober entries or just submit them as i go

[summer nacelle]

Raitops #26.141

"POKENAME have highly conductive forearms, which they use by stabbing opponents and shocking them. Sometimes, this Pokémon ends up being a hazard if its Trainer is careless, as it can easily electrify bodies of water if it ever decides to swim."

[hollow nimbus]

Since the electrons are continuously stored there but lightning strikes are spontaneous, you should add something that triggers the lightning strike to happen

[topaz wraith]

Dextober Day #3 - "Ancient"
Girakyu #345.373 [vinnyruby]
POKENAME's wish to make a friend awakened an ancient evil, which possessed POKENAME's costume as a token of 'friendship'. Despite the terror that the evil being strikes into others, POKENAME loves its new friend and even models its costume after it.

Ever since last night, I kinda was thinking about grammar and realized me not putting effort into it is kinda no excuse so I wanna practice my grammar since I'm probably rustier than I thought (haven't written an essay in a while); so if anyone notices any grammatical flaws with the entries please let me know!!! 🙇‍♂️

[hollow nimbus]

Although I don't see any grammatical errors, this isn't exactly what we're looking for in entries for PIF.
Entries should describe the behaviors and traits of the species as a whole rather than of one individual instance. Although legendary Pokémon are rare, there are multiples of them, so there is no species that is an exception to this rule.

If you want to learn more guidelines for shaping your lore, I encourage you to read the FAQ section on the 'FUSION POKEDEX ENTRIES' sheet.

[rich goblet]

@knotty wyvern

Please remember that your discord username is all lowercase, I have noticed that a couple entries were made where you capitalized your username. Thank you!

@rich goblet Noted, I'm very very new here so I'm still learning the ropes! If any of my entries are approved will I be notified or do I just need to learn how to navigate the spreadsheet? 🤣

You'll need to navigate the spreadsheet, its the first tab under "responses" and scrolled all the way to the bottom

[storm light]

A friend asked me to do Hitmonchan's self fusion, what do yall think lol

Hitmonchan #107.107c
POKENAME's mastery of martial arts is beyond compare, so much that fights between individuals can last months. The outfit it wears is a symbol of its vanity due its accomplishments. It will protect its outfit by any means necessary.

[soft flicker]

Im going thinking that due to the exposure of the inner core to air the lightning strike occurs.
Maybe I can say "the now-exposed inner core"? That would fit into the character limit

[summer nacelle]

funny since i did a hitmonchan entry last night

Ditchan #132.107

"POKENAME hate transforming, as they see it as admitting they aren't powerful on their own. They do so despite this, as they always prioritize winning over their pride and ego."

When colored lighting hits POKENAME its appearance doesn't ever change from its black and white coloring. This Pokémon was very involved in the beginning phase of filmmaking, leading some directors to make films about mysterious singers in its honor.

[jovial pollen]

im catching myself up on the past 3 dextobers.

[soft flicker]

What do you guys think about this change? Does it make sense

[regal cedar]

Autumn should not be capitalized.

[regal cedar]

Type should not be capitalized.

[azure wagon]

👍 oop, noted

[regal cedar]

The plural of POKENAME is just POKENAME. For instance, "Look at all those Pikachu!" or "Those are Stantler!"

[regal cedar]

Should likely be formatted as "black-and-white coloring".

Also, it mentions making films about mysterious singers in its honor, but as none of the entry talks about why films about a mysterious singer would honor it (does it sing? did singers adopt its aesthetic?), it feels like an odd second clause for the second sentence.

[soft flicker]

I wanted to include that Gourgeiist sings to lure its foes, but the characters limits me. I could just leave it out, as i don't want to change the first sentence

[azure wagon]

Munchgull #260.516
POKENAME flock to coastal towns and are considered pests as they greedily consume any food left unattended. Their favorite food to snatch up are french fries.

wingull died so here's a wingull entry

[soft flicker]

When colored lighting hits POKENAME its appearance doesn't ever change from its black-and-white coloring. This Pokémon was very involved in the beginning phase of filmmaking and in its honor directors created films that became cult classics.

I wanna say that the directors made such good films that they because classics, and not that they became classics because they were made in its honor, you know?

And it "that" right or should I change it to "which". Still confused with them

[regal cedar]

perhaps "that eventually became" to make that distinction better

We'll also want a comma after POKENAME. Pretty sure at least one more in another place, but I want to double check some resources first.

Have a comma after filmmaking, yes.

[jovial pollen]

alright, thank you

[soft flicker]

When colored lighting hits POKENAME, its appearance doesn't ever change from its black-and-white coloring. This Pokémon was very involved in the early stages of filmmaking, and in its honor directors made films that eventually became cult classics.

Good like this?

[regal cedar]

That seems good to me!

Dexslog - is in a book
Minior Meteor/Eevee
(IL try my best to do an entry for ever Minior Meteor/Eeveelution. It's just so much fun!)

A popular children's books has this Pokémon as the main character. It tells a story about a timid POKENAME who hides behind its mantle, but over the course of the story makes friends and begins to come out of its shell, revealing its colorful core.

And yes "coming out of its shell" is indeed a pun

[jovial pollen]

question for editing dexslog, how do you change the red background to white?

these

[soft flicker]

It will automatically do that if anything is written in it

[soft flicker]

Ping forgot

[jovial pollen]

what abt the images

[soft flicker]

You should be able to add a picture into the cell, same with with the color changing there

[jovial pollen]

do you need to download the image to add it?

[soft flicker]

I do. I think yes. I'm on mobile so maybe you could do drag and drop but i dunno

[jovial pollen]

hm im trying to but nothings being put in.

I got it working

[azure wagon]

you can go to insert, and click "image in cell" and then click the click option and paste the image link of the fusion from the site

for example

Dextober Day 4 - Pumpkaboo Line

Gourveon #490.339
The sweet, yet haunting voices of POKENAME can be heard throughout many forests on nights with a new moon. They use their ribbon-like arms to grab prey, feeding off the fear they create by doing so.

dextober entries so far :)

[regal cedar]

POKENAME is an expert navigator and can never get lost under normal circumstances, as it possesses several organs that act as dedicated navigational instruments, like a map, compass, and even an altimeter. Only its size limits its use for explorers.

Seeking feedback.

Ah, I spot a few already. Let's see.

There.

[rich goblet]

The other day I got a vocabulary list and I have made like 30-40 entries with that list.

I feel super energized to make entries for some reason

It's a nice feeling though

[rich goblet]

IMO a solid entry, I can't think of anything wrong with it

[jovial pollen]

Dexslog - Magnezone & Has something that people collect
Steezone

The crystals on POKENAME are seen as a valueble mineral that can only be found on this fusion. The electro-magnetic forces change the way the crystals look on the inside, and are often harvested for this reason.

Dexslog - Sandshrew & has something that people collect
Palkshrew

The pearl that POKENAME produces when its created is so valuable that it is more than quintuple the price of the most expensive ore. Nobody has dared to obtain its pearl, due to the space-distorting abilities of POKENAME.

Dexslog - Krookodile & has something that people collect
Paradile

The fungi growing on POKENAME's back are used in stews across the world. Its flavor gives off a taste like no-other, which results in groups hunting for POKENAME and its mushrooms.

[storm light]

is it sunday yet? Not really but I just couldnt wait 🙃

Dextober Day 5 - Lycanroc Midnight

Lycanta #465.77
When hunting, a single POKENAME will lag behind pack and pretend to be injured or weak in an attempt to lure in bigger Pokémon like Luxray. When the moment is just right, the rest of the pack will pounce on the would-be predator.

[rugged socket]

DexSlog: Arceus/Onix - Dugtrio/Arceus
It is believed that POKENAME created all of the caves. This was such an intricate job that its many hands morphed into what look like Diglett. As POKENAME brushed passed rocks, some believe that its power rubbed off to create the first Onix.

[soft flicker]

Dextober 5 - Chandelure/Lycanroc Midnight

POKENAME sustains itself by feeding on rotten souls. It will relentlessly fight anyone deemed as such regardless of any damage to its fragile glass body. The eldest POKENAME have so many cracks, it looks impossible that they haven't shattered.

(Eldest in this case refers to multiple individuals, hence the "they")

[summer nacelle]

Dextober Day 5, Lycanroc Midnight

Cactroc #458.465

"POKENAME prowls the driest of deserts, hunting for whatever food or moisture it can find. If it sees another Pokémon or Trainer with such things, it will drain their energy and headbutt them, knocking them out and stranding them in the harsh sun."

[azure wagon]

Glaceroc #272.465
When POKENAME spots an intimidating opponent, it freezes its fur to make its hairs sharp like icy needles. It then recklessly charges in with no regard for its own safety.

[knotty wyvern]

Where do I get access to the dextober list?

[rich goblet]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1s7lginkXZLW1IVln4rU4BsX7xJrRxAbPwU5CSoyUVc8/edit?usp=drivesdk

Here it is

[knotty wyvern]

Haunroc #93.465
After dark, POKENAME can often be found floating nearby concerts they deem the most hardcore and impressive.

[glad hound]

Sorry for the exchange changes, how does it work?

[rich goblet]

I’m not sure what you’re talking about, this is the channel for talking about Pokédex entries in the game

[stark finch]

Cresselia/Gardevoir "Cressvoir" 468.287 by ribbononline

Historians believe that Pokémon such as POKENAME may be the inspiration behind several famous mythological figures associated with the moon. The light of its veil is said to banish nightmares, ensuring a peaceful night's rest and pleasant dreams.

I'm not too certain on the specifics of referencing actual real world mythological figures, so I dunno how acceptable this entry might be overall. It's not referring to specific deities or characters, but as far as I know, tales like that of Princess Kaguya presumably have Pokemon World equivalents?

Should this entry be fine since it doesn't mention any real world mythological figures specifically?

[rich goblet]

I think because it’s vague and does not directly involve historical figures that it should be fine, but an Unown might know more

[stark finch]

makes sense

How would I go about getting a consensus on that, since it's not exactly an error to be reported?

and that I haven't exactly submitted anything yet on account of this whole uncertainty?

[rich goblet]

I have no idea, the best way to handle this IMO is to send the entry and wait for denial or approval, since you can always revise and resubmit

[stark finch]

Alrighty then. One can only hope for the best.

[rich goblet]

You can ping an active Unown if you want more input, but I think it’s fine

[stark finch]

like... the role? in here?

[rich goblet]

@regal cedar and @hollow nimbus are pretty active

[stark finch]

oh well that works I guess?

[rich goblet]

Yeah!

[stark finch]

In the meantime, I'll trust your judgement and submit the entry.

if it gets turned away, then I'll have an answer.

[rich goblet]

The worst thing is getting a no and trying again, the Unown will let you know if it’s egregiously bad

[stark finch]

yeah

[rich goblet]

This is a case of let the Unown do their voluntold jobs

[stark finch]

ah

not gonna lie I do enjoy coming up with Lore™ for my favorite Gardevoir fusions, even if they might be for specific versions of said fusions.

hell, I got my start writing entries for both of follygee's Milotic/Gardevoir sprites.

[rich goblet]

You should write about how Pokemon interact with the restaurant industry

[stark finch]

https://tenor.com/view/batman-thinking-gif-18107621495886085895

[regal cedar]

I'll do a check

[stark finch]

Thanks bobo!

[hollow nimbus]

Am I needed for something?

[rich goblet]

#dex-entries-discussion message

This post shouldn’t be dinged for reference to other media right?

The OP was wondering

[hollow nimbus]

Yeah

It's fine

The rule isn't so much about not referencing other things as it is about not breaking canon

[rich goblet]

Oh, my bad

[hollow nimbus]

You can say that a fusion likes hamburgers, but you can't say it works at the Krusty Krab

Directly naming other copywritten stuff will usually break canon

[stark finch]

Ah, makes sense. I had been wondering to an extent. Had it explicitly referenced figures by name, like Princess Kaguya or Artemis, then it would have been an issue. But keeping it vague is a bit more forgiveable.

[hollow nimbus]

Yep, yep

[stark finch]

any connection is meant to be drawn by the reader, than explicitly mentioned

[rich goblet]

A lot of new writers lately so I pinged to make sure my info was right

[stark finch]

because you look at that sprite, and that entry, and think "oh they remind me of (x) mythological figure" or at least that's my intent.

[hollow nimbus]

Basically, the pokemon game has to stay a pokemon game

[stark finch]

right

[knotty wyvern]

If my entries are marked dark yellow for miss-entry of the word Pokémon do I need to resubmit, or does someone else just edit it?

[outer fox]

how do you come up with inspiration for what to write? Like, do you go based on the sprite itself, the dex entries of the base Pokémon, or something else?
I'd like to try writing some entries but i feel lost on where to start

[rich goblet]

I think you might be pinged by an Unown but they should fix it for you if there are no other issues

[rich goblet]

I generally try to use attributes from the Pokemon and imagine how it might behave in society. Like what does it do and how it interacts with other Pokemon. That’s how I do it

I also look at other author’s work sometimes for inspiration, here’s my dex entries if you’re curious

https://www.fusiondex.org/authors/quackquackattack/

[soft flicker]

Dexslog Leafeon/used in the space race

Minior Meteor/ Leafeon
POKENAME grows leaf-like appendages to gain energy from photosynthesis. Compared to plants on earth its leafs have to withstand the conditions of the ozone layer where they live. Scientists study it to see how plants could stay alive in outer space.

[soft flicker]

Couldn't decide so I just made two for the same promt
DexSlog Minior Meteor/items that are collected

Minior Meteor/Vaporeon
When a POKENAME fall from the ozone layer down to earth most of the time it is adopted by hospitals or care facilities. They like to gather the water it creates around its tail as the water is free from any air pollution or allergens.

Minior Meteor/Sunkern
Every POKENAME forms around a seed that it will host for its entire life. It provides the seed nutrients and the seed shares some energy created by photosynthesis. Farmers like to collect these seeds as they are very sturdy and resilient.

(Don't mind the "the Sunor are most likely dead as the seeds are collected" implication I accidentally build in )

[hollow nimbus]

We will fix it, but you should try to keep an eye out for that error on entries you submit in the future to prevent it

[thorny turtle]

Is there a preference for Imperial units over metric ones? I'm not sure if I should use miles or kilometers

[hollow nimbus]

In general, an Unown will reach out to you about your entries for one of these reasons:

• One or more of the elements in the content doesn't make sense to us, and we're trying to figure out what you were trying to say so we can edit it accordingly.
• You're making a lot of mistakes in all of your entries, and we'd like to advise you to keep a closer eye out for them or to vet your entries for peer review here before you submit them.
• You keep making the same mistake over and over. We may notify you about the mistake since it seems you don't realize it's a problem.

Rarely, we'll reach out because we need to change the content of your entry and need to know what you'd like it to be. I say rarely because most of the time entries with flawed content are just denied, as it's easier for the author to submit a new one than it is for us to try to get in contact with the author, get them to respond, and hold a discussion for that one entry.

[hollow nimbus]

No preference, just make sure you use one or the other in the same entry

[thorny turtle]

gotcha

[hollow nimbus]

It runs five kilometers every night while it sleeps, and it runs ten kilometers during the day. is correct
It runs five miles every night while it sleeps, and it runs ten miles during the day. is correct
It runs five kilometers every night while it sleeps, and it runs ten miles during the day. is not advised

[thorny turtle]

Does this look right, then?
It can reach speeds up to 100 km/h and can fit itself through a 5 cm gap without slowing down.

I'm unsure about the abbreviations

[hollow nimbus]

Looks good, but because you're using 5 cm as an adjective and it's multiple words, you should write it as 5-cm gap

[thorny turtle]

gotcha

[hollow nimbus]

Same thing if you weren't using measurements
Like too-small gap or mind-boggling gap

[rich goblet]

Thank you for clarifying!

[regal cedar]

Hi @rich goblet, I noticed you submitted an entry for 81.397 (and the evolution). However, in the past, you had already submitted an entry for 81.397 (but not the evolution, 82.397).

Are you sure you'd like it replaced?

https://www.fusiondex.org/81.397/'

For reference, your new entry is "POKENAME works in factory settings where it inspects parts that are used in appliances. It can quickly discern which parts are defective and pulls the parts out of assembly lines with its magnetism."

[rich goblet]

Do not replace it, keep the original. Sorry about that I must have not checked when I wrote it. Whoops!

[storm light]

mmmm can someone give me a type combo to write for? I'm bored lol Or a whole Pokemon too, either could work

[rich goblet]

https://www.fusiondex.org/81.252/

Try writing something for this one in a factory setting

@regal cedar If there are any duplicate or entries already existing can you cancel them? I try to keep track of what’s been already added but sometimes I’m sloppy

Cancel -> Reject

[regal cedar]

Yes.

[storm light]

Magnerill #81.252
POKENAME swarms take over factories that have little to no people in the area. They attach to machinery using their magnetic tails and absorb electricity, driving up the cost of energy. A way of repelling the swarms is currently being researched.

Just under the character limit

[rich goblet]

Ooh I love that

[storm light]

gotta have some nuisance pokemon in the world to balance out the cool helpful ones lol

[regal cedar]

Hi @hexed fog and @rich goblet , I noticed your entries (one already approved and one needing approval still) for

https://www.fusiondex.org/88.222/

By default, the page loads version "a", which is the one that doesn't involve the visible Galarian Corsola. (for instance, the embed shows "a")

Did you mean to keep/have it for 88.222, the one with Galarian Corsola?

[rich goblet]

I meant it for the -a version

Also thanks for looking out 😄

[regal cedar]

(Izik, there's actually something similar with 222.88, too, although it could still fit)

[rich goblet]

@regal cedar 287.354.png was meant to go on the -a version, I made it as a treat for doing so many recently

I did it while I was at church, I forgot to include the a* 😔

[regal cedar]

@rich goblet I also want to make sure that you meant this entry for "287.354", Gardevoir/Lopunny, and not "288.354", Gallade/Lopunny.

"POKENAME is a loyal Pokémon that protects its Trainer from evil and depravity. It views itself as a hero fighting corruption and exhibits a certain pride in helping others."

Welp, nevermind I guess?

[rich goblet]

Sorry, I know I know

[hexed fog]

ughhh yeah, I'll switch mine

[storm light]

Meanwhile I never have any problems with my entries scoots all the grammar corrections under the rug /lh

[knotty wyvern]

Hey? Just curious, when a png number is highlighted yellow, what is the significance of that distinction?

[rich goblet]

It means there probably is a duplicate or existing entry

[azure wagon]

Misogre #255.340
Feared by all sailors, POKENAME is commonly referred to as the "Sorceress of Stormy Seas." Its eerie cries can summon massive waves that are capable of capsizing any ship.

my lumineon died so heres a 🐟 entry

[storm light]

you know what that means

🐟

[storm light]

Getting back to my second dex run

Persea #53.116
Though difficult to take care of, POKENAME adds an air of regality to home aquariums. Scientists debate on whether the color and size of the gem on POKENAME's head is influenced by their diet of microorganisms when they're young.

[storm light]

Raidra #26.117
The barbs along POKENAME's body contain a paralytic poison used in anesthetics. Shoals of these Pokémon take over shallow reefs in the summer months, forcing beaches to close until they move on.

Perinder #53.418
The velvety soft fur and feathers of POKENAME makes it highly sought after for rich folks. If unhappy, it will violently flap its wings, releasing shining embers in frustration.

[knotty wyvern]

Dextober day #6 "weak"
Hitmontle
POKENAME have very fragile egos , and love winning, so much so that they will intentionally seek weak opponents to make sure they don't lose. If a POKENAME does lose even once, it will give up fighting entirely.

I feel like there's too many commas in that entry, any feedback?

[azure wagon]

I'd probably just take out the and love winning,

[vivid spire]

Good morning, I enjoy the entry. I would consider maybe a slight wording change to reduce commas such as:

POKENAME love winning, but have such fragile egos that they intentionally seek out weak opponents to ensure victory. If they lose even once, they will give up on fighting entirely.

[azure wagon]

Dextober Day 6 "Weak"
Tordle #488.13
When under attack, POKENAME releases plumes of thick smog. This smoke contains a weak poison that irritates the skin and eyes.

[summer nacelle]

dextober day 6, "weak"

Feeper #394.194

"POKENAME are typically seen as a free meal by most predator Pokémon. POKENAME's vision is very weak, so it never sees a threat coming until it's already too late."

[azure wagon]

Hello! If anyone's interested in participating in "Dex-tober" with daily prompts for the month of October, check out my original post here!

Today's prompt needs you to include the word "Weak" in your entry. (Or related words like Weakness, Weaken, etc.)

Happy writing!

[soft flicker]

Dextober day 6 "weak"

Arceus/Magikarp
Anyone comparing POKENAME to a Magikarp or even calling it a weakling will be met with divine retribution. This Pokémon is born with the ego and temperament of a divine being. It is nearly impossible to tame or to train it to follow any command.

[storm light]

Dextober Day 6 - "Weak"

Charape #4.57
Without warning, POKENAME can erupt into a violent fit, thrashing at anything that comes near, including its Trainer. When calmed down, its flaming fur dies down to a smolder, leaving POKENAME extremely weakened while it rests.

[soft flicker]

Minior Meteor/Sylveon
POKENAME's feelers become the most active when it senses or interacts with a Pokémon from space or the upper atmosphere, where it comes from. Some recorded instances of such activity spikes couldn't yet be explained, but scientists are working on it.

I'm thinking on some instances where they notice Miniveon acting strange and can't explain it at a with any knows other "otherworldly" Pokemon, kinda spooky implications etc. that there is a "otherworldly" Pokémon around that they don't know about

[azure wagon]

Silceus #507.315
POKENAME is rumoured to only appear to the most tenacious of tailors, as the legendary silk it produces is of exceptional quality. A simple scarf made of its silk can be sold for millions.

[soft flicker]

If y'all find Minior/Sylveon okay then I only need to do Umbreon and Espeon

[soft flicker]

And have to submit a good few entries I forgot

[regal cedar]

@viral crag Hi Rumia! I've noticed many of your entries have random capitalization and contain errors that could be solved by looking at the FAQ, the pins here, and getting some feedback. I'm glad you're eager to participate in writing Dex Entries!

[hollow nimbus]

I don't think that we have any official name for the currency in PIF. (It's may not Pokémon Dollars as it's also probably not Pokémon Euros.)
However, you can circumvent that problem by putting it as, A simple scarf made of its silk can be sold for millions.

let the viewer fill in what the unit is

[azure wagon]

gotcha

[hollow nimbus]

I'll put in an FAQ for currency, though

[azure wagon]

Dratomb #147.295
A fisherman recently confirmed POKENAME's existence after pulling up its keystone from the bottom of a lake. Researchers have since found that POKENAME is endemic to just a few lakes in the Kanto region.

[storm light]

@azure wagon for Dextober on Day 8, can we use Pokemon that aren't exactly a grass type or don't normally have plants on them, but the sprite shows them with some?
I was looking around for ideas and came across this Oridash that looks like it has wisteria as a mane? Not entirely sure if it would count for the day though
https://www.fusiondex.org/433.78

[azure wagon]

Yes! As long as any kind of "plant" is seen on the sprite youre gucci

[storm light]

I can't tell you how much fun this is, looking around for cool sprites for the prompts lol

I have to stop myself from filling out the entire thing

[azure wagon]

such a mood

I'm glad you're enjoying it

[soft flicker]

8/9 Minior Meteor/Umbreon
People used to predict a nearing red moon by looking out for POKENAME in the night sky. Writings of POKENAME falling from its home in the sky and being confused for a shooting star are common all around the world, dating back hundreds of years.

9/9 Minior Meteor/Espeon
People used to predict a nearing eclipse by looking out for POKENAME in the open blue sky. It lives much higher in the ozone layer than most Minior, doing so for the increase in sunlight. It relies on this sunlight to power all of its Psychic moves.

[rugged socket]

Very impressive, awesome entries too!

[regal cedar]

Hey @quiet anvil , don't forget to use your actual discord username while submitting, not your server nickname! (It should not be Atlas333).

15.380.png

"POKENAME in Fusion Hives seem to kept at a distance. It's as if its Deoxys component unnerves the others. As such they get sent on long away missions, using their abnormal strength to wipe out threats to the Hive."

Any suggestions?

[summer saffron]

it would be far away not long away

[sturdy arch]

Fixed. Any other issues?

[summer saffron]

are “fusion hives” an established concept or did you just make it up now?

[sturdy arch]

The latter. I think it would be interesting if beedrill fusions worked with other beedrill fusions, since those eusocial instincts might survive the process

[summer saffron]

Beedrill hives often keep POKENAME at a distance, as if the Deoxys component unnerves them. As such, they get sent far away on difficult missions, using their abnormal strength to wipe out threats to the hive.

[sturdy arch]

I can live with that. Do you think I'm good now?

[summer saffron]

👍

I don’t have much experience with dex entries so ask someone else more experienced

For instance idk if you use they/them or it/it pronouns for pokemon, etc

[storm light]

You can use either, but be sure to use only one of those sets to refer to the Pokemon. Don't switch from it to they when referring to it yknow

[storm light]

Dextober Day 7 - Moon Stone

Delphox #526.484
Using sticks it whittles into needles and fur from its body, POKENAME knits toys for its young. The toys help its children practice skills that benefit their development. In battle, it loads the toys with psychic power before launching them at foes.

[hushed tusk]

is there an entry already for Zura (Zubat/Abra ID: 31604)?
If not I have a pitch:

"This pokemon's senses are highly developed, both in its hearing and telekinesis.
It seeks darkness and solitude to escape the light and its overwhelming brain activity."

[storm light]

Doesn't look like it has one yet!
https://www.fusiondex.org/41.63/

I am curious where you got the id from though, the pokedex ingame doesn't reflect how the website categorizes the sprites, so if you wanted to submit that as an entry ( #dex-entries-submissions after you get feedback), then you'd need to use the number on the website, which is usually written as #.#

[hushed tusk]

I got the ID from in-game?
I actually forgot how to search on the site, so my bad XD

haven't used it in ages

I just caught one and in-game it said it didn't have an entry, so that's why

[storm light]

I should have deleted thw first sentence lol after writing it i realized where you got it

[hushed tusk]

oki

[short jasper]

Anyone else have particular Pokémon components they end up making dex entries for often? A lot of my entries are for Magcargo fusions, and I’ve also done a number for Trubbish and Darkrai

[azure wagon]

Dextober Day 7 - Moon Stone 🌑
Nidokarp #34.129
Despite a monstrous appearance, POKENAME is actually quite gentle and meek. Its thick scales protect it from attacks.

[summer nacelle]

Jumpqueen #189.31

"POKENAME make their homes underneath entire flowerbeds, and rarely leave them. This Pokémon's elusive nature, as well as their fluffy scarves, make them a popular choice for fashion designers to take inspiration from."

[azure wagon]

Hello! If anyone's interested in participating in "Dex-tober" with daily prompts for the month of October, check out my original post here!

Did you know there's a Full Moon out? 🌕 So today's entry has you writing an entry for a Pokemon that needed a Moon Stone to evolve! This would include Pokemon like Nidoking, Nidoqueen, Cleffable, Wigglytuff, Umbreon, and Delcatty. Can't wait to see what ya'll choose. Happy writing! 🌙

[rich goblet]

Don't forget Cleffable and Wigglytuff

[terse pawn]

Legend has it that a rampaging POKENAME had destroyed an entire region with a flood, leaving behind an archipelago in ancient times. The people of these islands had painted murals of this Pokémon as to never forget what happened there.

[regal cedar]

Just a reminder to reread the pins, rules, and FAQ! It's always good to look over again every once in a while, even if you've been writing a long time.

[placid sierra]

I just realized that I forgot to make a dex entry for Flaaffy/Vaporeon.

Each POKENAME's markings are unique and relate to the condition of the moon when it evolved. POKENAME from thousands of years ago have been found perfectly preserved in mud, allowing scientists to observe how the moon impacted the earth in the past.

[storm light]

Bancario #357.296
POKENAME congregate where children play after the sun has set. The lingering auras of joy, happiness and friendship are believed to give them comfort. Those that have been adopted into families exude an overwhelmingly positive aura.

Bancario #357.296a
POKENAME seek revenge on those who wrong them, driven by an instinctual rage. Their control over supernatural energy is so immense, it is thought they can level entire mountain ranges with a single blast.

[hexed fog]

'No longer concerned' relies on other entries

7 Is an entry allowed to make heavy reference to another entry (such as discussing an event written about in its prevo's entry)? Dex entries should be standalone as much as possible since players may not have read the entries of the other Pokémon in the line

[placid sierra]

I keep forgetting to make the dex entry for Flaaffy/Vaporeon, I need to go do that right now before I forget again.

[placid sierra]

https://www.fusiondex.org/180.134
POKENAME is mostly seen near clear bodies of water, and when approached it will melt away into the water making the water electrically charged. POKENAME’s fleece generates electricity constantly, making it very dangerous to touch.

Any ways that this could be improved?

I made the entry quickly, so I know there are a lot of errors.

[knotty wyvern]

One of my entries was not approved for lacking dex tone? How do I avoid that from now on

Also I assume we're allowed to edit and resubmit?

[knotty wyvern]

Dextober day number 7 moonstone
Wigglynix
Each section of POKENAME's body is as soft as a pillow, due to this small children and Pokémon are often seen resting their heads on POKENAME's tails.

[storm light]

Dextober Day 8 - Plant (Sprite must show a plant of some kind)

Oridash #433.78
POKENAME are stars in the sport of Pokémon dressage. Their delicate twirls and cantering make the wisteria of their mane dance as if it were fire. When they rear, they let out a haunting cry that sounds similar to a woman singing.

[hexed fog]

Avoid 2nd person in your entry. 3rd person writing is always a good option.

And yeah ypu just submit again

[azure wagon]

Dextober Day 8 - Plants on Sprite
When threatened, POKENAME releases pollen from its grassy fur. This pollen causes foes to hallucinate, disorienting them long enough for POKENAME to escape.

[summer nacelle]

dextober day 8, plants on sprite

Tanlem #266.76

"POKENAME reside in caves, and can retract their vines to blend in to the surrounding walls. When prey pass by, POKENAME shoot their vines out from their rocky bodies and drain the energy of whatever they capture."

[knotty wyvern]

Dextober day 8, plants on sprite
Sudoflora

POKENAME are entirely made of rock but choose to mimic a flower to appear less intimidating. They have to replace the leaves on their head often to look convincing enough.

[azure wagon]

Hello! If anyone's interested in participating in "Dex-tober" with daily prompts for the month of October, check out my original post here!

Today's all about Plants. 🌿
Find a fusion with some kind of plant on it (leaves, flowers, etc.) and write them an entry! 🪻

As always, happy writing! 🪴

[azure wagon]

Gonna do something fun and write some entries for my winning team for my sun nuzlocke. No Tsareena in game but this kinda has the vibe.

Metaetta #11.467
POKENAME is seen twirling as it fortifies its chrysalis with silk. It delivers sharp kicks to enemies who pick on it.

Mubro #89.80
The thick sludge that makes up POKENAME's body produces a vile stench. It slowly lumbers about in landfills.

[summer saffron]

I say cut out the “due to this” and make it two sentences

[azure wagon]

Litales #365.38
POKENAME pretends to be a forest guide, tricking its prey into following it. Being near its flames slowly burns away one’s will to fight, allowing POKENAME to attack unimpeded.

[regal cedar]

I know this is about entries but man these sprites own too

[azure wagon]

Pipcorio #322.431
Though POKENAME spends most of its time in icy waters, it can be seen gliding on gentle sea breezes. The fluffy down on its flippers help regulate its body temperature.

those sprite artists be cookin

[storm light]

You should see the sprites i have filled the dextober with lol

[placid sierra]

I never got feedback on this entry I made.

I know it is not great, but I really was having a tough time thinking of something for it.

[storm light]

You have quite bit to look forward to from me :>

[regal cedar]

I would make the first clause its own sentence. (You would have to remove the "and" and capitalized "when"). Have a comma after "melt away into the water". You'll also need a comma after "When approached".

[placid sierra]

I'll repost it with the changes that you suggested so people don't have to scroll up as far.

https://www.fusiondex.org/180.134
POKENAME’s fleece generates electricity constantly, making it very dangerous to touch. When approached, it quickly melts away into nearby bodies water, electrically charging it as a result.

Any more ways that this could be improved?

[azure wagon]

Personally I'd have 2nd sentence be the first and cut out the part where it lives...something like this perhaps?:
POKENAME’s fleece generates electricity constantly, making it very dangerous to touch. When approached it quickly melts away into nearby bodies of water, electrically charging it as a result.

just a thought

[placid sierra]

I'll edit the second message to show changes to it as I am not wanting people to scroll up as far to find the dex entry.

Is it good now, or are there other things I should do to edit it?

[azure wagon]

Kleftik #371.412
POKENAME consumes metal ions and converts it into electricity. Its small size makes it a useful companion for photographers, allowing them to charge their equipment on the go.

[azure wagon]

Primepede #57.424
POKENAME's bulky physique and aggressive nature makes it a dangerous Pokémon to face. It mercilessly pummels enemies with its poison tipped fists.

[knotty wyvern]

Any specific fusions that are "high priority", lately I've just been hitting find a random fusion until something inspires me. Anyway I can be more helpful than that lol?🤣

[hollow nimbus]

I believe one of the tabs in the sheet lists fusions that can be encountered in the wild

I'm not sure if those are all done yet or not
I know Izik was working hard on them for a while, and he pumps out entries at a rate of about 50 per hour

[storm light]

Toxaura #455.461
POKENAME slowly cross the floor of cold seas in search of their favored prey, Corsola. After chasing Corsola into a set of Toxic Spikes, they stalk the weakening Pokémon until it is too weak to move.

[rich goblet]

I think you could work on the second sentence a bit, like

They lay Toxic Spikes and lures Corsola into them. They stalk their prey until they are sufficiently weakened.

Or

After chasing Corsola into a set of Toxic Spikes, they stalk the weakened Corsola.

Something like one of those two

[summer nacelle]

Armcor #304.273

"POKENAME dive from the air into the water to fish for prey. Despite evidence being inconclusive, researchers believe these Pokémon were once a common sight in the ancient past, only recently being rediscovered through modern fusion technology."

[storm light]

Sceptrum #278.426
Known as the King of the Jungle, POKENAME stomp around their territories, roaring loudly to assert their presence. Their strong jaws can split a thick tree in two.

[storm light]

I did end up editing it, lmk what you think!

[azure wagon]

real fossil hours

[storm light]

The Toxaura and Sceptrum are both part of my party in my dex run so yeah lol

Toxrorus #455.462
Herds of POKENAME roam arctic seas, searching for prey to suit their large sizes. They work together to corner their prey by summoning walls of ice covered in Toxic Spikes. Their veils shimmer in bright colors depending on their mood.

honestly kinda sad that this sprite isnt the default bc it's super cool, but it is what it is
https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/455.462a

Talondactyl #372.142
Flying at high speeds, POKENAME showers clouds of embers over its foes and doubles back to dive through the fiery cloud. Its rocky exterior strikes the embers, causing them to explode and inflict major damage on the opponent.

[midnight siren]

it’s cause I made that sprite before the other one was made

In game it’s a 50/50 of which one shows up tho

[midnight siren]

couple quick edits I’d suggest.

1. remove both instances of “will” -> it’s superfluous and doesnt really add anything + it improves flow
2. “shimmers” should be “shimmer”

[midnight siren]

quick question here: where are the “mists” coming from? it may just be me, but I can’t see what in the entry or the fusion would cause mists to always be around it

[storm light]

The mists are in reference to the embers that shower off its wings, i didn't know how to really articulate the cloud so I initially went with mist lol

cloud might be better to say honestly

Just edited it for clarification, does that sound better? /gen

[midnight siren]

ahh, in that case may I suggest instead calling it “smoke”? as this has a more fire centric connotation, and is more clear imo

[midnight siren]

yes!

[storm light]

Raidra #26.230
POKENAME rise from the deep ocean during thunderstorms, attracted by the lightning. As the storm rages, they prey on Water-type Pokémon who have been disoriented by the violent waves. They swim at burst speeds of over 35 miles per hour.

bit of a shorter entry, but frankly i'm stumped as to what to mention for it, might be tired from writing entries today lol

[rich goblet]

For the second sentence you have quite a few options

You could talk about how they cling to each other, which reflects how seahorses IRL cling to seaweed to stop themselves from being whisked away

You could talk about how they interact with wildlife, like how other Pokemon may eat them because they rise up during the thunderstorms

You could also go and do some more research. When in doubt, study the Pokémon and its real counterparts, or maybe an occupation they could fit in

I do like the 1st sentence

[storm light]

I think I got a good second sentence in now, but lmk what you think
eta: not sure if "violent waves" or "turbulent waters" sounds better

[rich goblet]

Better than before!

[regal cedar]

Hi @final bison , I notice you've been using a backtick (`) in place of an apostrophe (') in your entries. Please make sure to use the correct symbol in the future: a backtick should not be used in these situations.

[novel shadow]

Litckle #365.213
Have two ideas for this one and need suggestions about which to go with.
POKENAME generate a waxy substance inside their shell to fuel their flame. Fishermen have superstitions that a POKENAME's light at sea is an omen from dead sailors warning them to turn back.
POKENAME generate a waxy substance inside their shell to fuel their flame. Harvesting POKENAME wax to make prayer candles or waterproof boats is a traditional industry in many coastal cities.

[final bison]

Oh, thanks so much for the information! I thought it worked because posting in the form with that character no longer marked it as peach in color, and therefore I thought it was the correct in-game apostrophe. Can I ask you what character to use instead of alt+96? Do you still prefer the normal apostrophe? Or is there another special character you use? (This way I avoid having you edit all the entries containing apostrophes every time - if I can).

Also, forgive me for using that apostrophe. I hope it didn't cause you too many problems ;_;

[storm light]

Dextober Day 9 - "Storm"

Manedash #530.78
Reports of lightning streaking across plains are attributed to POKENAME herds chasing storms. The electricity in their body causes their hooves to heat to high temperatures, leaving burned hoofprints where they run.

[hollow nimbus]

It's totally, fine, but the problem is that it's not an apostrophe at all. Backticks are used in coding and don't really have a use in standard English grammar.
The correct character to use is this: '
It's the same character I use when typing normally here in Discord, situated on the same button as the quotation marks. The alt code for the apostrophe is alt+39 on Windows operating systems, though because it's such a common and easy character to type, I'm having a hard time finding the alt code for it on other systems.

[final bison]

Thanks so much for your time and explanation! I will avaoid to use the backticks from now on ❤️

[chilly bloom]

technically ' isn't correct in English but it's a commonly accepted substitution for the proper symbol ’

the game has standardized on ' for ease of writing

[azure wagon]

Dextober Day 9 "Storm"

Castdol #554.551
POKENAME brings about plentiful rainstorms as it flies. Because of this, ancient cultures greatly revered the Pokémon and depicted it in many murals.

The mushrooms of the POKENAME are said to hold miraculous healing properties. POKENAME sets its mushrooms in seemingly random places, anywhere from perilous caves to isolated ruins.

Raifarig #243.203

"POKENAME rarely leave their domains, and only ever do so during a thunderstorm. The tail on POKENAME is very intelligent, and can sense when these storms approach and when they pass."

[regal cedar]

Hi! Today I'd like an entry involving a Gen 3 Pokémon.

[regal cedar]

Hi @rich goblet , you have two entries with the same text:

"A single step from a POKENAME can trigger earthquakes. However, because of its benevolent nature, it moves slowly through the world to avoid causing harm or damage."

One is for Wailord/Tyranitar, and one is for Tyranitar/Wigglytuff. Which is intended?

[rich goblet]

I thought the former one already had an entry so I resubmit for Wigglytuff

[regal cedar]

It does not: it had a denied entry, but...

[rich goblet]

Oh! In that case it can go onto Tyranitar

Sorry if this is confusing, I tried to anticipate multiple entries but I was wrong

[regal cedar]

If there are other entries, please let me know!!! It's okay to have multiple entries per sprite, so I won't know to deny based on that. (I did the Pidgey/Riolu one, too, but that DID have the sprite, so I moved the acceptance to the other)

[rich goblet]

Let me check one second

I’m having trouble accessing it on mobile, please reject any with a yellow marker up to current, sorry

@regal cedar

Yeah it crashes whenever I have this doc open, I’ll need to get to some WiFi

I’ll note this for the future, sorry for the trouble

[regal cedar]

I'm handling it! But please, yes, let us know.

(Mobile is infamous with a sheet of this size, I wouldn't bother

[storm light]

Sablple #421.506
Swarms of POKENAME infest gemstone mines, eating the precious gems found there. Rarely, POKENAME are accidentally brought into jewelry stores where they devour the stock until they become sick, costing companies millions in lost product.

[regal cedar]

Yes, a yellow marker does not always mean another entry has been accepted: just another one exists. Check on daena if you don't want repeats!

[rich goblet]

Oh I see, it just highlights all duplicates, thanks for letting us know 🙏

[azure wagon]

Duslu #311.442
POKENAME become active once the sun sets. It is known for the haunting melody it makes as it drifts about aimlessly.

@regal cedar
Question, can we make mentions of the villainous teams in entries? Something like: "POKENAME are often used by Team Rocket to help pick locks."

[regal cedar]

Yes, you can. Try to keep timeline stuff and in-game stuff in mind, though. That would be fine!

[hexed fog]

"Often used" is perfect for this. Well done

If you said "always used" it would be faq 9d to oblivion

[azure wagon]

Hello! If anyone's interested in participating in "Dex-tober" with daily prompts for the month of October, check out my original post here!

Duscruel # 311.73

POKENAME is often found at great depths in the ocean, eating everything it sees. Even the strongest Trainers are said to be scared of going to the ocean after encountering one.

Yall think this is good?

(didnt mean to respond to mepp's message sorry)

[azure wagon]

Spooky month

[marble trout]

just submitted my first dex entry. Thanks for finding my video and leaving a comment @regal cedar

[regal cedar]

Oh! Thank you so much!

[knotty wyvern]

Does the entry just have to mention storms somehow or is it more specific than that

[storm light]

It just has to have the word "storm" or a variation of it, like "storming", "rainstorm", etc

[knotty wyvern]

Got it

Thanks

dextober day 10, Dark type

Darkrow #347.256

"POKENAME finds people to stalk, and it spends its time following whoever it has chosen. Whenever it is finally noticed, POKENAME disappears into thin air and searches for a new target. It is unknown why POKENAME does this."

[azure wagon]

Dextober Day 10 ft.Dark Type Pokemon
Sablchoke #421.67
There have been many accounts of POKENAME using their slings to take down larger foes. Groups of POKENAME will often engage in friendly competition with one another.

[novel shadow]

Mr. Tank #122.241 The dairy industry has repeatedly tried to popularize the farming of POKENAME, However all attempts have ultimately failed due to consumers reporting that POKENAME milk "tastes funny".

[ancient yoke]

🙂

[azure wagon]

Arcoh #315.250
Legends state that POKENAME witnessed the genesis of the universe and used their glowing wings to dye the once monochrome world with countless vibrant colors.

[round cave]

Maybe explain why the dairy industry tried to populate its farming?

[novel shadow]

Having a hand-tail meant it could be trained to milk itself, but that would have made it longer than the character limit and I felt it could have been seen as TMI. To be honest I thought of the "tastes funny" bit first and worked backwards from there.

[hollow nimbus]

I think that the entry is fine as is

You only need to explain the reasoning behind something if it doesn't make sense otherwise

Milk industry is trying to sell more fusion milk? Makes sense
A fusion explodes when it sees pie? That may require more explanation

[small grove]

Politump
#61.438
POKENAME are said to be spirits of children who died drowning. It adopted the hypnotic swirl of Poliwhirl, it uses the wails and cries of children to draw trainers or POKéMON near, Uses hypnosis from the belly swirl, and drags the prey into the water, never to be seen again.

Bonus: Looks can be ABSOLUTELY deceiving, and this pokemon proves just that.

[hollow nimbus]

So, I'm gonna go over this and give some critiques

[novel shadow]

Unfortunately that is above the 250 character limit.

[hollow nimbus]

First of all, yes, that

[azure wagon]

new dex prompt dropped

[hollow nimbus]

Make sure you read this post in its entirety: #dex-entries-discussion message

It's also pinned along with other useful bits of information.

Be sure to also check the FAQ tab on the sheet that's linked in that post

[small grove]

I shortened it when i submitted it. Thats the full entry.

[hollow nimbus]

Oh, you already submitted it?

People like to post their entries here to get feedback before they submit them

[small grove]

Yeah, but i shortened it to just: the dead child part, and how it lures prey.

[hollow nimbus]

Did you also take care of the run-on sentence?

[small grove]

Yeah.

I might make another dex entry for a trevenant fusion (OF COURSE IT'S TREVENANT I MIGHT BE A TREEHUGGER)

[hollow nimbus]

So, if you already submitted your entry and already saw to the grammatical errors, what did you need help with?

[small grove]

Nothing, I had it fully planned out, it just needs feedback.

[hollow nimbus]

Feedback has to come before it's submitted

Otherwise you can't make any edits

[small grove]

I didn't plan on it, I saw the entry as in my own words "perfect, but it just needs to be a BIT shorter". (It in fact became much shorter than I originally thought.)

[hollow nimbus]

Entries that are submitted have their grammatical and spelling errors if we editors can tell what is trying to be said, but if there's anything that goes against canon or doesn't make sense, the entry is denied.
That's what happens after an entry is submitted.

[small grove]

Makes sense. I hadn't seen that before I made the entry, I understand it now. Thanks.

[hollow nimbus]

Looking into it, another Unown has already marked your entry as "Not Approved"

[small grove]

I should probably get to work on the next entry I'm gonna make.

Nice talking to you, though.

[hollow nimbus]

The reason listed is that Bluesteel pwner is not a username

Do you mind if I change the username to your username so the entry can be processed?

[novel shadow]

It's cannon that the Pokémon world is a planet like ours right? I want to talk about something "above the artic circle where nights last months" but I wasn't sure if that would contradict anything.

[hollow nimbus]

Yeah

Make sure to put a comma after circle

[storm light]

Dextober Day 10 - Dark Type

Darkpix #347.37
POKENAME shadow people and Pokemon, waiting until they fall asleep to torment them with nightmares. Its tails glow crimson from the negative energy it absorbs, channeling it into dark will-o-the-wisps it uses to attack any who dare challenge it.

[small grove]

Sure, I didn't see the message since i was finding a new fusion to make an entry for.

[hollow nimbus]

Just so you know, since you say you believed your entry was perfect, I've made the following grammatical corrections to your submission so it meets our quality requirements:

Submitted entry:
POKENAME is said to be the spirits of children that drowned in a lake, which has now adopted the hypnotic swirl of Poliwhirl, it uses child cries to disorient prey, and then drag them into the same lake.

Corrected version:
POKENAME are said to be the spirits of children that drowned in a lake and adopted the hypnotic swirl of Poliwhirl. It uses childlike cries to disorient prey and then drags them into the lake.

In future entries, remember especially to check for run-on sentences, tense agreement, and plurality agreement.
The same lake part was omitted because the different members of the species won't have all died in the same lake, since you did not specify a specific lake the legend places their origin in. Additionally, because their previous species-wide experience of drowning in a lake is only rumored to be, it does not make sense to later treat it as fact without adding information to the second sentence that shows that the second sentence is also part of the myth.

Hopefully with new awareness of these mistakes you can continue to craft entries that capture your vision

[novel shadow]

Duskcuno #313.144
A common tale above the polar circle is that right as the sun sets to usher in the polar night, POKENAME can be seen leading the spirits of those who have passed. Despite the extreme conditions, many people come annually to try and catch a glimpse.

[hollow nimbus]

I believe you have mistakenly misspelled annually

[novel shadow]

I did, thank you

[hollow nimbus]

Hm
There is actually a chance that Arctic circle may not fit because it's a place

I need to do some quick research into what qualifies an Arctic Circle

Okay, I looked into it, and I have come back with an answer

The Arctic Circle and Antarctic Circle are only on Earth, but other planets still have polar circles, which are basically the same thing

So, just swap Arctic Circle for polar circle

As for your preposition, I suggest in the polar circle rather than above, since the tale is not originating from the sky.

[small grove]

This time I am NOT gonna screw anything up. I understand it now.

[hollow nimbus]

Looks good beyond that
Make sure you don't include the three commas on either side when you submit

If you were using those three commas in order to create a box
that looks like this,
make sure you use backticks ` instead of commas ' .

Geofetchd Pokedex entry #74.83

POKENAME see their leek's as their prized possession. Once in their grasp it's impossible to remove it from their hand even after they've been knocked out.

I'm gonna start asking for feedback before I submit more often 🤣

[storm light]

leek's should be leeks since the leek is not possessing anything

maybe also a comma after grasp?

[storm light]

that's it guys, pack up the dex entry stuff, this guy wins

[round cave]

Elusive Dex entry #1426347055030206505
POKENAME uses Lovely Kiss to put unsuspecting people to sleep, where they experience horrible nightmares. These nightmares tend to be worse among darker-skinned people, who have reported being mocked and stereotyped.

[novel shadow]

Even if jynx's inspiration is questionable I don't think we want to cannonize in-universe racism

[storm light]

I agree, frankly I wouldn't want o see an entry with topics like that in a fun game like PIF

this is not an attempt to seek shelter from topics like that, don't mistake me. I believe however that they may be too serious for the game to mention

[knotty wyvern]

Molking 146.199 dex entry: Professors claim POKENAME are intelligent enough to fully read and comprehend almost any book regardless of language. This is hard to prove though, since when they are given a book it is almost immediately incinerated. (this feels like a faq 9 is there anyway i could fix it, the imagery of the pokemon just wanting to prove that it can read just makes me laugh a little.)

[thorn ingot]

Do you capitalize evolution stones like moon stones or are those kept lowercase?

[thorn ingot]

This feels barely connected to Moltres. What about it differentiates it from other fire types from instantly incinerating books, especially if they also have visible flames (or flaming scales like Volcarona)

[lapis cosmos]

I believe capitalized like other items.

[hollow nimbus]

This... might violate server rules

POKENAME stalk around schools and playgrounds, causing mischief directed at school bullies. Because of this, it is thought to be the combined malice of children who are being picked on and seeks revenge on their behalf.

is there a chance pincurchin may be added farther down line? cuz i think there can be some cute sprites fusions?

Here's my less controversial version of the entry #1426347055030206505

According to legends, POKENAME were used to patrol and protect the citizens of ancient civilizations. In a flash, it extends its rocket-like fists to grab and subdue troublemakers.

[thorn ingot]

What material are Toxapex’s legs made of or should be described as?

[rich goblet]

https://m.bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Toxapex_(Pokémon)

“Starfish-like legs”

Under biology

[hollow nimbus]

Make sure to hyphenate that to starfish-like legs since that's a compund adjective

Unless you're telling me that starfish really like legs

You can also just call them legs or spiky limbs and people should know what you mean

[thorn ingot]

No but how would you describe the material, if for example, they are no longer legs but what the Pokémon is made of

[rich goblet]

Oh that’s what you meant! Not sure

[rich goblet]

I think they have to be pretty hard since spines and a tough skeleton

[summer nacelle]

almost forgot abt dextober, woops

gonna get on it now!

"POKENAME are often seen in the depths of volcanic areas, as their bodies are composed entirely of molten rock. It has become common to compare someone's breath to that of a POKENAME's, due to the poisonous gas that escapes their mouth."

[hexed fog]

why are people using 2nd person ;A;

[rich goblet]

You must be joking

;P

[hollow nimbus]

Second person is fine as long as you're not deciding on the player's actions

Like If you touch this Pokémon, you'll be blinded for three days. is fine

You touch this Pokémon, and you become blind for three days. is not fine

[storm light]

I also had one that delved into second person as a warning

and the one next to it lol

[rich goblet]

I have used it like once

[storm light]

three instances for me

[rich goblet]

I mean it isn't bad, just super uncommon

Also Beicate is cute af

[storm light]

Although i think it's more of saying thesze things could happen if you were to do the thing, not that they do

How to word better, thank you brain

Preceded by if or followed by may is better than just saying the things will happen lol

I hope yall get what i mean because apparently i don't

i cannot articulate

[rich goblet]

I get it kinda

[storm light]

so what's the policy for jokey dex entries? Still in-universe of course, but this sprite is just begging for the definition of granite and a one-liner

[rich goblet]

No references to other media but otherwise I think as long as it can fit in lore it works

Melolix #466.208
As POKENAME burrows deep underground, the vibrations caused by its body spikes produces a unique melody that sounds like singing. The hair that falls away as it burrows is often used to make bows for string instruments.

recently complete the story of mhworld again and came across this one, i had to lol

think it's non-referential enough to pass or should i rework?

[rich goblet]

This should be fine

Qwilape #211.57

"POKENAME inflates its fists when it feels threatened, and uses the quills on its knuckles to fight back with fury. Unfortunately, since POKENAME is paranoid and very easily aggravated, it almost always is in this violent state of mind."

[burnt snow]

I've decided to start making these again

Glanite 428.149

The face on POKENAME's chest is its true face; the head is merely a vent for the icy breath it can spew, which can freeze an opponent in seconds. POKENAME lives on the peaks of mountains so cold that humans cannot survive alone.

POKENAME is a master over water. It can drag opponents into a dark, watery realm that obeys the whims of its creator and has no end. Those recovered from such a place often never approach the water again.

Cutrum #104.426
POKENAME was first discovered after being revived from a fossil found in a mix of amber and sediment. The boney portions of their body are thought to be incomplete, yet are fully functional. Their collar of amber is oddly resilient to attacks.

Not sure how to feel about having 'oddly resilient', but it kind of fits since irl, amber is a soft material and easy to shape or damage. For a Ground type, I think it'd make more sense for it to be a little tougher than that.

"POKENAME live among the most harsh climates in the world, travelling the coldest of areas in tribes. These Pokémon bond over experiences they share together, and value family above anything else, despite extensive evidence that these tribes are never related by blood."

this is too long, i know

i'd wonder how i could rephrase it to be shorter...

"POKENAME live in the most harsh areas in the world, travelling the cold in tribes. These Pokémon bond over experiences they share together, and value family above anything else, despite extensive evidence that these tribes are never related by blood."

250 on the mark baby

[azure wagon]

maybe something like "Their impressive amber crest is as durable as steel/stone/(whatever tough thing here)"

Cloywak #91.105
POKENAME can be seen chiseling away at its bony helmet to create its signature spiky appearance. It fires daggers of compressed water to attack any foe threatening it or its young.

[hollow nimbus]

It still has to be considered a Pokémon fusion, and it can't break PIF canon

You can't say that it's just a block of granite, but you can say that it's a Pokémon with the same properties as a block of granite

[jagged ledge]

Also my general advice is that the best comedy from dex entries comes from the content rather than the tone. Presenting something naturally comedic as if it was fact makes it funnier than losing the information in the presentation.

What about it

[storm light]

This thing just.. goes supernova on a whim?

i dont think we survive lol

[thorn ingot]

Good

[thorn ingot]

Also are you gonna explain what the ping is for or are you just gonna ping me randomly, not explain, and leave it at that? If it’s the latter, I request you don’t do that again.

[hexed fog]

Oh it was just about you trying to kill us all with a supernova

sorry I didn't think it would upset you that badly D:

[thorn ingot]

Oh ok sorry if I sound super mad I just don’t like to be rando pinged

[hexed fog]

The 12OCT2025 Dex Update has been pushed out! Please allow time for your games to automatically update 😄 No action is required on your ends!

[thorn ingot]

I also assumed it was because that entry was denied or something like that and you just didn’t explain why. Sorry again

[hexed fog]

it's not a big deal D: it was more of me just being like "Soup chose violence today, supernova style"

why do you want us to be sand D:

The opportunity presented itself with electrode and the light legendary. I couldn’t resist

[hexed fog]

lol I would suggest making theoretically able to explode

with that force

[thorn ingot]

bubbububut… violence

[hollow nimbus]

We need a world for there to be a game 😅

[thorn ingot]

nonsense, just make game in dark void

[thorn ingot]

if I write "In theory," before the second sentence would that fix it and get it approved?

[hexed fog]

sure why not lol

toss it in dex errors pleeeease ❤️

Here's a prompt! ✏️
What are some Pokemon that are considered household pests/nuisances? What do they do that gives them their reputaion?

[narrow crow]

Bro where is route 9

[regal cedar]

This is not the chat for that.

[thorn ingot]

Ask https://discord.com/channels/302153478556352513/1056705898669682718 , this channel is for dex entry discussion

[narrow crow]

I need a route 9 pokemon for dex

[regal cedar]

This is for writing dex entries, not completing the dex.

[narrow crow]

Oh

Ok

Mucune #89.245
Despite the semifluid nature of POKENAME's body, it can stand on the surface of water without deforming. It dashes around the world looking for polluted water sources, absorbing the pollution into its body and leaving pure water behind.

hi! this isn’t the right chat for sprites - this channel is for writing dex entries for the fusion sprites in game. If you would like to have this sprite in game then you should check #spriting-guidelines and then you can make a post in #1050404143807873157 !

Lickin #108.535
POKENAME's massive tongue is five times longer than its body. Its saliva contains a strong toxin that paralyzes foes on contact.

I'm probably not going to do anything with my Flaaeon dex entry.

Vilerade #45.352

"POKENAME lives in dark forests with little light, and the scent which it produces from the flower on its head attracts unsuspecting prey easily. When POKENAME finds its target, it uses the smaller flowers on its forearms to paralyze them."

[regal cedar]

Okay writers! Today, write an entry involving Parasect that involves the mushroom being helpful without being a parasite BUT no harm coming to the mushroom, either.
