Cool, thank you!
I would just say some instead of many, unless there's a lot of competing environmental groups
Noted for future reference, thank you!
I've been on a streak with how light pollution affects the environment
It's so nice to incorporate knowledge into the Pokémon game
Pidmoth #16.49
Flocks of POKENAME often get lost because of how pervasive light pollution is in their environment. Scientists have engineered new lamp posts that minimize how much light faces upward, helping POKENAME avoid getting lost.
Just sharing with the class
That’s great
Pokemon is all about people learning to live more harmoniously with pokemon
See this is where I shine, if I find a science topic I like, I can write a lot of it
omg why are outlines missing on that things torso
I just now noticed 
I constantly see things like that in this channel and have to go grrrr its already posted pretend i didnt see it
lol
I probably can’t play the actual game like a normal person anymore 😂
Venoling #49.417
POKENAME flock to cities at night because the artificial lighting activates a part of their brain associated with safety. Once dawn comes, they resume their migration to wherever they were headed.
EDIT: Again, sharing with the class 😄
I wonder if the random pick tool will help that, or worsen that
Registeel/Tyrogue #449.236
POKENAME is always seeking to improve its strength, lashing out at anything nearby to train. Its steel body allows it to shrug off any blows without feeling pain, enabling POKENAME to battle endlessly without rest.
It giving "hyperbolic on a baby pokemon" vibe, but nothing wrong per say with it
Just a bit much for a tyrogue
how about
POKENAME is always seeking to improve its strength, lashing out at anything nearby to train. Its steel body allows it to shrug off any blows without feeling pain, often leading it to push itself too far
Cause I assume your talking about the ending of it
Much better
Like if you change the pain or the rest part it'd feel more realistic
Like yeah it might be a machine but its a tyrogue, its babi

POKENAME is always seeking to improve its strength, lashing out at anything nearby to train. Its steel body helps it endure repeated blows, often leading it to push itself too far
I changed the pain part to endurance 
For you? Sure, one sec
I'm having trouble with scanners, let me google that one and get back to you
https://fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/143.233/
POKENAME enjoy playing with office scanners but often overload the system with their large bulk. Many POKENAME have led to expensive replacements of essential office equipment.
@hexed fog Thoughts?
ChatGPT Porygon when?
*note, I am not advocating for anyone to use AI. I am simply saying itd be dystopianly funny if a Porygon was basically just ChatGPT
Only you can prevent Porygon from being a language learning model
this needs to be a thing now, and to be funny and real, needs to be an in-game secret fight thats ultimately unwinnable
i trust porygon infinitely more than chatgpt
PoryGPT
I have sorted out the completion rates of entries so far and this is what top 10 is
I like to think that I single-handedly puts psyduck in the top 10 and it makes me happy
Poryown #275.201a (PoryZ)
Using the data they collect from the vast variety of websites they visit daily, POKENAME attempt to help users by answering questions they have. More often than not, however, they give conflicting or entirely incorrect information.
I'm not entirely sure how to post this to dex errors, but I think that one of these was likely meant for the alt.
considering that they're mostly the same
And I have posted to dex errors before, I'm just not entirely sure how to put this into words
@marble vapor you got any input on this?
I will be going AFK fairly soon
You just make an error report as usual and in the explanation put two dex entris made by same author and put this screenshot there
There then.
You did it right 
POKENAME's favorite snack are big beautiful gemstones. Unfortunately its teeth are too weak to crack the jewels, forcing it to instead attempt to swallow them whole, often choking as a result.
Magikarp bullying is always fun. 
Oh now you gave me an idea of a dex entry for a sprite I haven't even made yet
Despite its intimidating size, magigalge is never taken seriously
Beautiful
How's this? Despite their intimidating size, POKENAME are often predated on, even by Pokémon smaller than them. Their poison is lackluster at best, so predators get nothing more than an upset stomach after feeding.
Genius
I think you're free to submit it for yourself in 2 months 
Nah, you can 100% take that as your own if you want, idc
Also despite its not it's 
Went hard on that when I fused it with Arceus 
I'll be the judge of that
Yeah, fantastic 
I just wanna know why some people submit entries like these, I don't get it. /gen
The sprite png isn't even related to an arceus fusion
https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/245.83/
Mistype, wrong sprite, Google automatically relaying you to your past unfinished write up if you didn't pay attention, etc
Looking at it, seems very exhauting for the unown team, with the number of people always putting Uppercase, or their discord profil name and not their true discord one. Probably less than looking at typo or if the entries is correct, but probably exhauting anyways
I wouldn't know I'm still on the progress to lift the magenta out of my name so I just have to keep going through it lol
No need to be unown to realise they do have a lot of work to do 💪
And that some people aren't helping 😂 I saw some entries, damn, clearly some people don't bother reading even one rule
Or are just trolling. Could be that too
Maybe, for the discord username, have some example. Like Izik and .izik
I think one of the Dex Managers are on hiatus so it will take some time for querys to return until they come back
Also I have had a bad case of regretting entries I've submitted lately, why can't my brain be perfect 😭
@hexed fog
I'm sorry for all the mistakes I've made recently, I'll try to slow down this weekend so you don't have to keep denying duplicate entries
last I heard it was realthree that was taking a hiatus? I could be wrong or just out of touch
That is correct
Does anyone know if there's a way to know anything about an entry you submitted?
Like, see it or know if it's been approved or something?
- Read everything in #dex-entries-submissions to find the google sheet
- Open the google sheet and navigate to the "Responses" tab
- Search for your entry by scrolling near the bottom of the sheet, as it is in chronological order
I will tell you right now, your entry came after the date posted in the pinned comments and shouldn't be processed until the next batch date
As I thought
In case you didn't see it you have to scroll down in the pinned messages
Should be some time next week
https://www.fusiondex.org/wailmer+poliwag/
POKENAME are curious creatures that often bump into boats that go through their wetland home. Their natural curiosity turns against them when met with a motorboat's propeller, leaving a POKENAME with a gash atop their head as they swim away.
I tried to find the most manatee like Pokemon that wasn't written for yet
This one doesn't have the trademark swirl on their stomach so I figured it is okay
I mean look at it, tell me this thing does not bump into things
Oh wow, I very much missed that— thank you! ^w^
Absolutely XD
ballin
ok the google doc doesn't wanna work for me
does necrozma/bisharp have a dex entry now
Which one? There's like five alts
i'm gonna find out myself rq with a new save
Oh wait I can just check for your username maybe
It says it has been approved, but the game might not be updated until the batch submissions are complete
Soon you'll be able to view it in game

well i just submitted a second one so hopefully that one goes in too
It's around that time where another approval chunk might come out, so lucky you
They got a backlog to get through, I'd wait and check the sheet maybe once a week to see if they got there, they're volunteers after all 
how do i check the approval sheet thingy
Go to #dex-entries-submissions it tells you
Ratgon2 #20.233
POKENAME use the intricate software installed inside their bodies to put on shows for small Pokémon. POKENAME can balance on any surface, using their hidden webbed feet in conjunction with static created from small electrical discharges.
Also I have to say, I love this sprite
Submit this RIGHT NOW its so cute

There’s no entry for eevee fused with eevee so I was thinking something like. This Pokémon’s jeans have become so unstable that it sometimes mutates so much that it is hard for it to unfuse
There's not a lot of entries for Pokemon period, but you can make a difference!
Dw I already did, I was just very proud of this one and I know this is one of those big problem ones
I like sharing my dex entries here sometimes
Do you think that may be I should submit it. Do you think it’s good
Enough For the game
Anyone can submit unless Unown specifically told you to post here for review, just make sure you followed the FAQ and Lore Books before submitting

You'd need to fix up a few things, including the spelling of jeans. I highly recommend reading parts of the lore book at a glance and reading through the pinned messages
Okay, I will do that
Yeah, if you're not confident then post it here and people will have a look at it for you, or you could even get an unown to review it if you'd like
That is why I posted it here for people to have a look at it and tell me if there’s anything wrong with it or against the rules👍
Oh you did? Sorry I must of missed it
ok i found a random fusion and it's furret/mamoswine what do i do for it
It’s fine
One sec while I type up a revision @tranquil imp
where do i go to get random fusions
fusiondex.org -> Random Fusion
I’ve not submitted it yet. I’m just trying to make sure it’s good enough for me too actually submit and correct a few things.
yeah that works but i want specifically donphan fusions and there's no filter for that
Nope
It is still being worked on, from scratch. You'll need to search by species and then just go down the list
This Pokémon’s jeans have become so unstable that it sometimes mutates so much that it is hard for it to unfuse
=>
POKENAME's genes have become so unstable that it mutates often. These mutations make it hard for it to unfuse.
That's the best I could do for it, but the last part about being "hard to unfuse" is tricky because it implies one member of a species. Whenever we write entries, we want to focus on species as a whole, including legendary and particularly rare Pokémon.
@tranquil imp Maybe you could change the central theme to be about mutations instead of unfusing, as I'm also sure entries are meant to keep the process of fusion vague
I hope that made sense
Yeah, that works
Side note, but the more you give us, the more we can help with making an entry
It's easier to trim down than to add, at least for me
oh hmmm i've never thought about that
you aren't meant to mention how a fusion came to be
but acknowledging that any of them could be unfused makes sense to me, that's canon right? 🤔
you are probably right to play it safe but now i'm curious haha
I am the definition of play it safe, but I know the rules very well
Okay, well, this is just a basic concept. I’m probably going to add in more flavour and stuff.
actually nah i guess it doesn't make sense since a player in game wouldn't have any more trouble un-fusing that pokemon haha
This doesn't mention how it fuses or unfuses, I think it's fine
Let me consult the lorebook, it could be possible
I think the only feasible argument is "do not contradict game mechanics" but I don't know if saying it is harder to unfuse does that
<@&1210701164426039366> If an entry says that a fusion is harder to unfuse, is that considered contradicting game mechanics?
EDIT: Linked is the original entry blurb, trying to help a newbie get into writing
#dex-entries-discussion message
I thought since In this game Pokémon can be naturally fused you can encounter fused Pokémon on every route so I figure if two eevee fused together naturally they wouldn’t unfuse naturally but since DNA splicers are relatively new things in the law since you see a commercial at the start of the game, I’d assume they’d be relatively new things that were invented so maybe the Pokédex entry was made before the new DNA splicers
I don’t know, though
what's that cone thing on engines that makes the fire really strong and sends the thingy the engine is attached to flying
Hmm
I'm going to start making reading the lore book a mandatory reading
It's not saying it's unable to be, just that it basically causes more stress to function with the device
Which we wouldn't be privy to as an end user
One sec while I find out
I dont mind personally
One sec, we have an approval for concept
cause i have an idea for a typhlosion/donphan fusion where its back has holes that work like those weird nozzle things to massively accelerate it when rolling
POKENAME's genes have become so unstable that it often randomly mutates. These mutations make it hard for it to unfuse.
@tranquil imp This is a short but sweet entry if you want to submit it
You will need your username (quasardiamond), the sprite number on https://www.fusiondex.org/eevee+eevee/ (please let us know if you need help finding the sprite number), and a copy paste of your entry
quasardiamond
POKENAME's genes have become so unstable that it often randomly mutates. These mutations make it hard for it to unfuse.
The exhaust pipes? That's all I can find
i searched myself and i think it's an exhaust nozzle
but i have food right now so that entry can wait a bit
No problem, yes it is the exhaust nozzle
I submitted it
Congratulations! Based on the timing of your entry, the batch approval comes out next week so you'll need to wait a bit. Currently the batch approvals are about 3-4 weeks apart, but otherwise? I think you did well. If it comes to it that it gets denied for some reason, you can always try again
Yeah, thank you for the help. I am probably also going to make some others as well.
There are not a lot of custom Pokédex entries
Are you familiar with https://freerice.com ? You might get some inspiration if you play it

And that is where YOU can help the game 😄
How
It's a website that rewards players with the promise of giving rice to some impoverished nation based on vocabulary questions
I imagine a grass type pokemon could be a mascot, another could be trying to automate the process and another still trying in earnest
Yeah but how does this help with Porygon2 bodies? 
I am dubious about whether the website actually does anything but its got a lot of fun ideas baked into it
I think of it in catagories
You could mention how surveys are filled out or are automated by fusions
You could talk about how children learn vocabulary from a fusion
You could have a fusion be the mascot of an arbitrary website
My brain cannot contain the ideas I have 
You could theme it around a grass type, lemme try one for example
POKENAME can be found cultivating rice on websites throughout the internet and gain energy from children submitting answers on vocabulary. Their glee whenever a child submits a correct answer motivate many children to keep playing the game.
POKENAME gain energy from children solving puzzles on the internet that gives them short bursts of sunlight they can absorb. In exchange, POKENAME help increment a counter to indicate a bag of rice is donated to some nebulous organization.
@pale venture Something like these two, doesn't have to be perfect

Now that I have done two I might as well do the third and submit all three though 🤔
I like to make dex entries more related to the dex entries/mon information themselves, but you seem to super invested in this idea so I'll leave it to you
I can be quite scatter brained
I've got an idea for you though, one that matches your interest.
Maybe you could talk about Shellder, Cloyster, and Clamperl -- Specifically about the harvesting and value of the pearls?
You could also mention how they clamp down on limbs of people or fins on fish
Or figure out some new defense mechanism for a pokemon
Oh wait this was about Porygon2

Last ping for a while, but if you want specfically Porygon2 stuff, you could talk about how images or videos of their local environment are used and how they live inside them? I should not have had that third monster 
Maybe, I'll have to think about it all though
I tend to get my best ideas after linking similar themes both mons have
Cool! Brainstorm
I often write down ideas I have in a notebook so I don't lose them
I sometimes lose the book so your mileage might be better
Torquaza #488.342
POKENAME have a diet consisting solely of coal, which they grind down and burn inside themselves to generate an immense amount of energy. POKENAME can use the soot released from within to obscure the sky, giving them an advantage in battle.
Like this
It's like how I noticed both Porygon and Ampharos apparently both mention space for some reason, etc
Oooooh I get it now! My style is a bit more haphazard (clearly)
I think you would be a great writer for legendary Pokemon
It looks like the established lore helps you a lot 😄
The problem is, I really like making lore for the little guys

Or more non-serious guys, so the world feels a little more lively and full
Like these 4 examples, they were really fun to write for
I've wrote for legends before, but generally ones that are combined in a way where it's more than just talking about their power or whatever
I think you might get a kick out of the togepi line then, they're whimsical creatures
D'aw, that one is adorable
Like this graveller togetic fusion that maintains mountains rather than rolling down hills
I see I see
I'll look into the Toge line though, ty

Typhlosion/Donphan #157.232a
POKENAME have unusual holes in their backs, where their flames erupt from. These holes act like exhaust nozzles, intensifying their flames and accelerating their rolling massively, leaving nothing but fire and destroyed obstacles in their wake.
I'll go through some after I take a shower, I've already found a few togekiss line ones that seem fun
- I think there might be a comma needed at "POKENAME has unusual holes in their backs
,where their flames erupt from" - "to the point they only" is not really needed, could be replaced with "leaving fire.."
Neat idea though, love the concept

POKENAME have holes on their backs where their flames erupt from. These holes act like exhaust nozzles, intensifying their flames and increasing their destructive speed to the point where they only leave fire and debris in their wake.
What do you think?
ballin
Togekiss is very happy, let's make a very evil Togekiss

Togeter #269.93
POKENAME are only seen during times of peace, plotting various pranks in the shadows. POKENAME are known to attack individuals at their happiest, sapping their emotions until none remain.
Look at this lil prankster
That is terrifyingly cute
Cutely terrifying?
It works
Lol

Yeah haunter is always a good "Combo piece" for entries
It has a lot of material to work with
We're gonna have to go through and find all the funnily named Pokemon like Shits and make entries for them
I see where the person that wrote this on the spreadsheet was going with it, but also no 
"This Pokémon is untouchable in any way it is the most powerful being in the unoverse even if you have a victini you shall never win… also he likes chocolate chip cookies."
if i might make a suggestion for funny named pokemon:
shinx/scrafty and vibrava/exeggutor 
Thanks I hate/love it
also: furret/magby, natu/mankey, minior/aron, and vulpix/vibrava
i also made miltank/muk under the assumption that it would be named milk
that could probably be worked into a dex entry idk
Arcakiss #59.269
It is said that POKENAME fly nearby in times of strife, acting as a symbol of peace that unites people together. When people unite against evil, POKENAME will join their cause, leading them to victory.
I played more into the "regal" and historic dexes Arcanine has, while combining that with the strife issues Togekiss has

I have made an evil and a good Togekiss
I have no idea what Arcanine is a country conquerer, but it works here
I love this, goodest doggo
oh another funny named pokemon:
metang/meowth
@hexed fog Suggestion for the next Problem Pokemon list, unfortunately named Pokemon 
Honestly I'm thinking of tackling this one I just posted, it's cool
Though Metang is a PAIN to write for

true...
Nvm found a concept 
Sylveon is next
After Sylveon maybe?
Sylveon is after Sylveon
And then we cycle back to Porygon


I’m fine with doing that
This Metang dex is terrifying
I appreciate the fact that the floating flower is a cactus variant 
might think up a metang fusion with that information in mind
Meth #292.52
POKENAME are often used as high-power calculators, able to accurately count and convert currencies at a incredible rate thanks to their two brains. POKENAME have powerful arms, able to throw coins at over 30 mph with ease.
I think this one makes sense

Now no one can make a Meth joke
Mwahaha
No drug references allowed anyway, it is for the best
Yeah
Tbh I just really like the sprite
And I like the idea of a robo-meowth being a really fast currency converter/calculator
i tend to like a lot of steel-type fusions, namely since a lot of them take the mechanized aspect approach which is neat to see to me
Yee
I like putting them in scenarios that make sense too
Like ofc you'd use a Pokemon that can emit light to.. well, emit light
Or count currency like this meowth here lol
Yeee
Sorry I don't mean to self-glaze my work, but I remembered this dex entry I made last month or so and it made me very happy
This sprite is amazing
It makes me happy too 
Thanks for sharing with the class
I'm glad I've finally dropped my full dex obsession, I'll make more dexes tomorrow since I've basically got until monday to do anything I want
Gnight for now 
ok i'm doing sneasel/metang and i'm doing about how they love magnets
how do i word it so it mentions that packs will steal car magnets and drag nosepass into their nests
i forget words and try coming up with a string of words to describe it sometimes
Car magnets are small stickers you slap onto cars iirc
Oh, that's a Scrap Yard magnet iirc, or a lifting magnet
Tyty lol I'll go before I get distracted and make like 10 more entries sleep deprived

Metsel #292.215
POKENAME adore anything magnetic, and packs will form around any abundances of those materials. This can lead to them stealing car magnets in towns, or even attacking Nosepass with their heavy arms, just so they can haul them into their nests.
Replace "where they're abundant" with something akin to "rich with magnetic minerals" or something. Otherwise, it sounds like you mean that the packs form where POKENAME are abundant, not where they can find magnetic materials.
Also instead of "will live", you could either say "will form around" or just simply "live". That way you either show the progress of the development of the packs or maintain the active tense of the beginning of the sentence.
that work better?
Mostly? A little busy at the moment, so at least letting you know it's an improvement, but it might need one or two more adjustments later.
Beeveon #15.339
By humming softly, POKENAME are able to calm even the most vicious of Beedrill hives, making them beloved by beekeepers all over the world. The honey dripping from their ribbons is used in many popular sweets.
@small sundial please stops capsing your username
@lethal perch you too 🙂
@vale shale you too 🙂
@dusty hound you too 😄
@cunning sluice you too 😄
@izik you too 😠
my apologies! I didn't see that in the form but I will be sure to keep it uncapitalized from now on 🫡
Gotcha 
Some say POKENAME is a being from a nightmare dimension, now in this world to haunt more victims. It creates shadowy hands that touch upon the shadows of others, making them feel the phantom limb's creepy caress.
You mean that my name is in complete caps? I don't remember doing that honestly😅
POKENAME’s claws are razor sharp, able to cut through almost anything. Because of this, they are often hunted down by shady businesses who use their claws for manufacturing sharp objects. Luckily, they are fierce fighters who rarely lose a fight.
A username should have no capital letters
For example, when I submit my entries I write npshi rather than NPShi
Ohh okay, understandable. Don't remember seeing that rule
Presenting, the Lapras/Gardevoir-Gallade line!
POKENAME is attuned to the ocean it lives in, able to discern the thoughts and feelings of those nearby in the seas. Though very friendly and gentle, POKENAME is vulnerable to poaching and trafficking due to its shell and its diminutive size.```
```Lapras/Kirlia (131.286.png)
POKENAME is attuned to whoever it first lays eyes upon, bonded through its own fascination and linking its thoughts and emotions to theirs. The more jubilant it feels, the more its trainer or Pokémon friend will feel the same way.```
```Lapras/Gardevoir (131.287.png)
Archaeologists have found paintings of POKENAME depicted as clerics or chancellors of empires of old. It can link its thoughts to every mind within a 50km radius, furthering its understanding of the world.```
```Lapras/Gallade (131.288.png)
Historical accounts tell of rebellions and revolts forming with POKENAME as one of their leaders. It's able to psychically link against its foe's soul, allowing it to cut through the enemy's soul with precision using its fierce flippers.```
Pretty proud of these ones, what do y'all think?
Trainers who treat POKENAME with love and patience despite its malicious nature are rewarded with undying devotion and affection. Whenever its trainer is having negative thoughts, it will gently press its orb against them to bring them joy.```
Pretty proud of writing up on this one too. Though, does it sound cute? Or is there something flag-y here I might have not noticed? It's a very unique sprite to write a dex entry on lol
I’m not sure Pokemon have souls, and even if they exist cutting through one feels a little too simple for killing a Pokemon? The other three are fine
It’s a solid entry, not sure what the orb does but it’s still cute
Would you like it if I give the additional detail of its undying devotion and affection manifesting through that orb
How about this
Historical accounts tell of rebellions and revolts forming with POKENAME as one of their leaders. It's able to psychically link against its foe's soul, allowing it to control the enemy's movements and thoughts with its powerful flippers.
I forgot to @ you for this one but this was the original writing I have, trimmed down for wordiness reason
Trainers who treat POKENAME with love and patience despite its malicious nature are rewarded with undying devotion and affection, manifesting through its orb. Whenever its trainer is having negative thoughts, it will gently press its orb against them to bring them joy.
@proud cosmos just letting you know this was not an optional request. I am sorry if you though it was.
Dalm please read this or you'll get banned from writing future entries
Not necessarily, I usually warn a few times
Psst @pale venture tell me about how Butterfree/Porygon2 makes computers run faster with powder from its wings
Lemme check the entry again 
@rich goblet tell me about how Cacnea/Porygon2 shoots pins at malware
@narrow cosmos tell me about how Caterpie/Porygon2 electrifies the string it spits out
I can't see the entry in responses, can you post it for me? Sorry for the trouble
I don't seem to have it saved anywhere

This might be a silly question but is the soul part important? You could go and say something like...
It is able to create a psychic bond against its opponent to control the enemy's thoughts and movements with its flippers.
This would remove the soul part entirely and be valid
I'd probably faq 8 that
say essence
Ducky if Pokemon don’t have souls my heart will break
or an add an 'it is said'
it's a prompt lol
For this one I would remove the 'and' components since one on its own gives us sufficient information
Trainers who treat POKENAME with love despite its malicious nature are rewarded with undying devotion, manifesting through its orb. Whenever its trainer is having negative thoughts, it will gently press its orb against them to share its joy.
It is something I cannot confirm nor deny 
Oh, I thought you meant an entry of mine causing a problem 
Seen, will get done after helping folks here
I looked at the sprite and was like "I have no idea when I wrote this"
<@&1210701164426039366> i'm super sorry to bother you while you're still evaluating the various entries. I noticed that my entries 343.315b.png and 315.332b.png were rejected because they were flagged as having no sprites. I tried double-checking on Fusiondex.org, since I was really sure I hadn't marked them incorrectly (this time
), and indeed those sprites do exist on the site. I just wanted to let you know. As always, thank you for your work. 
Now that is weird, thanks for the report
Also I noticed something
Can I ask why the Porychamp (233.68) was denied? It's not my finest work, but I'm not sure what rule it broke.
The arms of POKENAME double as large fiber-optic cables, that can transfer over 10 gigabytes of data per second from one hand to another. POKENAME have software installed inside their powerful bodies, which result in impeccable strikes.
@hexed fog
The entry has no note, so I'd like to learn from this experience so I don't do it again in the future

for a second I was like "oh noes, I mistyped the number again"
Looking at the credits sheet, it seems like this issue was caused because one of the sprites for this fusion was removed, causing the others' filenames to be changed. FusionDex hasn't updated to reflect this yet. The sprite that was 343.315b is now 343.315a. The Unown team is aware that sprite removals cause issues like these and we've been talking to the sprite managers and Frog about implementing a solution to prevent stuff like this happening in the future.
Oh, I should of probably pinged Unown instead of Izik themselves
thanks so much for the prompt response!
<@&1210701164426039366> Please check this message when you have time 
Once again this seems like a filename issue. I'm not sure if this one's filename was changed or you just forgot the letter, but it looks like that sprite's designation is 233.68b. 233.68 (no letter) doesn't exist as a sprite.
Ooooh
Yeah, I see it now, thank you very much. I'm normally good about that
I'll resubmit with the right entry id
Works for me
Will replace later once I posted these
I do my best 
Looking at the info, butterfree's dust would actually be very harmful to computers, not help them 
A better Pokemon would be one that can generate air and winds some way, but I'll still write a dex
POKENAME is said to have been created by ancient people from clay and clumps of stag beetles, with a currently unidentified energy source flowing through its body. Digging burrows to sleep, it still glows and ticks even beneath the earth.```
```Pinsir/Golurk
POKENAME lives in colony-built tunnels beneath Unova, often described as labyrinthine logistical hubs. POKENAME's colony is currently under study for its complex hierarchical systems, more akin to bureaucracies than any natural hive.```
Also made these ones
Buttergon2 #12.233
The wings of POKENAME are covered in electrically charged pollen that is poisonous to the touch, which often cause machines used in field research to malfunction. POKENAME survey the area around their nests to make nearby flowers are free to bloom.
Not exactly what you wanted @hexed fog , but this is more lore accurate to butterfree surprisingly
fantastic
i just needed an entry
Ah lol
lol
Porygon2 body still the problem child rn?
I'll make some food and I'll knock some out later then
There is a whole faq for porygon family so probably just ppl making those mistakes
And a lot of the sprites are like references or whatever so sometimes they make entries based on that instead
I remember a lot of the time they just say the fusion can do things that don't make sense iirc
That and people keep saying it's manmade despite it being against Fusion FAQ
sorry guys <@&1210701164426039366> i would kindly ask you to ignore my first entry of "418.233.png", i put the wrong pronouns ;_; today i cannot english
On it, though next time make an entry in #custom-dex-errors too
noted! thank you again
jfc SK D: you have so many this time
: )
i jsut scrolled down lmao
oh ducky. i just realized you're an unown now! yeey 
I've triggered the FAQs a few times yeah
everyone makes errors, including meeee
Yee, the output is just wild
luckily SK is one of those people who doesnt care if we edit the entry
How do you do it
I actually had to repeat the same two entries about three times to get one that got the vibe I wanted to go with and didn't break the rules. 
Half the time I don't remember the entry enough to know what the edit is, it seems to usually be pretty minor. 
Kinda just look at a sprite and see if anything jumps at me on sight, and if not, take a moment to see if there's anything about the two parts' flavors that I can combine. Hard to really explain. I just do binge drops and then go on break for a few days. 
Izik writes so many he often forgets them and just wants them to be correct when we approve, it's a good problem to have haha
It's why he's so far ahead of me still. 
@flat saddle Due to multiple errors in your latest entries please get your entries reviewed here before submitting them 🙂 at least until you understand more of what we are looking for
you guys are really on another level
it's pokemon it isnt that deep lol
I just hope people enjoy the entries I've written. 
but the way you stay consistent and your dedication are 
god I need a life
This is your life, Izik
I just checked for fun, c'mon, it's only 210 entries, it's not that much. 
best i can do is 120-130 per month
See that's still a strong amount!
And that number will multiply by ten before you know it.
I don't think I have that in me
I've been on the Unown team for over two years and I think I still have fewer than 20 entries 
My only goal is to hit at least 100 dex entries, that'll get me in the top 50
Even that's admirable, any amount is good. I still remember being happy when my first like, 10 got approved and I could see them in-game.
Though now I've spent more time writing dex stuff than I have playing PIF. 
I've played a lot of PIF

I just never really recorded most of it because I never knew the discord existed before I joined
I’m on like 110, I’ve really slowed down since I became an unown 
Dang
I'll use your 118 entries for research 
Research? Studying?
Idk what the word would be
@delicate cargo due to multiple errors please get your entries reviewed here before posting more... at least until you understand what we are looking for
I just mostly write more complex entries wording wise, so I spend a while making sure I have the right words
Wording and grammar is where I what I'm normally weak at, so that's perfect for me
(more complex for me I mean)

I need to get back into writing
I don't often boast about myself, but my ideas and stuff are generally pretty fun
also I did see your ping the other day, I’ve just been absolutely swamped with rl so forgot to respond to it 
I can feel slay the spire's hold weakening, but it's still got a strong grip right now
i like your concepts a lot, tho
I think I've done less than 10 submissions this month
Don't worry I appreciate your help in the past 
I’m forcing myself to write more by making it the prize for my event 
Hey thanks so much, that means a lot 
Good luck 
it's always very nice to have people so creative in the loop
I've only done entries for my own sprites (not even all of them) and like a single dexdoku, and that still puts me in the top 50. Pretty easy to break into the author scene 
Is porygon2 specifically the problem Mon? Or the whole line?
Currently it's Porygon2, but it used to be Porygon
right now porygon2
Gotcha
It tends to be a set few Pokemon that are problem ones, but we tackle a bunch one at a time
Like Arceus, Sylveon, Cubone, Necrozma, etc
Spiritomb too
I dunno if I'll be able to just write entries for it, my brain doesn't get inspired that way, but I might try and get a few
Honestly I just really like the Porygon line, so it works for me
Yeah, I remember discussion over Arceus
Valid
I usually rely on playing with the fusion in game to spark ideas, and porygon just hasn't come up at all in my randomisers
That's valid
I'm currently doing runs in sequential order through the Dex, so I'm on my nidorina fusions run atm
It's gonna be a bit before I hit pory
Wigglygon2 #40.233a
Wild POKENAME emit 2D images that they can manipulate to show a variety of different visuals. POKENAME can accompany these images with singing to put on one-man concerts or even confuse nearby predators.
There's a jigglypuff varient of this too, and this is kinda rough to write for
Yeah, some of the more overt reference/gag sprites are really tough, especially for an outsider. 
Jigglygon2 #39.233
Wild POKENAME produce holographic images of the nearby terrain to hide from predators and trainers alike. POKENAME will use their excellent singing ability to pacify anyone who see through this disguise, putting them into a deep slumber.
The gag jigglypuffs have been defeated
Maybe there's one for igglybuff lol
Yeah, type it completely in lower case
So instead of me typing my name as NPShi, I'd type it as npshi
Ok let's see my first submission
not yet 
So now what. I just submitted it. Do I wait for it to be approved.
Since you're new I'll look into it. Normally you'd just wait until the next batch of entries to get them approved.
Fortunately, even if you had to wait its been like 2 weeks since the last batch so it would get approved and in game within the next week
Ok
Thanks
This is an edited form of your entry, is this okay to keep?
POKENAME is known for its cautious nature and uses its large ears to detect dangerous Pokémon and warn others. It immobilizes foes using its toxic horn if it feels threatened.
Its a nice simple entry for a baby Pokémon
It has been approved and will be entered when the next batch happens
A lot of entries have no entries
I like furret a lot
Just remember to capitalize the P in Pokémon and use the acceented é
It's easy to find and copy paste, that's the only real thing I changed
We need a porygon thats attracted to ad traffic
Or eats ads
We need one that infests calculators to cause incorrect calculations
Or one that makes its skin mimic grass textures
Or moss textures
How about a porygon that lives in... pagers 
Remember pagers?
porygon 2 is too advanced for pagers
I remember when everyone said I needed a pager and then 2 months later tried selling them to me for 1/10th of the price
Not necessarily, it could be 100 pagers at once, or an entire broadcasting system
If it can do it easily, exaggerate/expand it
A porygon that eats satellite signals
Mimics other pokemon cries with beeps
that's just what all gen 1 cries sound like 😂
Oh I use that all the time
Conversion as an ability is so fun thematically
If anyone's struggling with Porygon line posts, after reading the dex entries, also read movesets. Movesets surprisingly reflect the kind of theme they wanted to convey wel
It also using electricity in attacks gives you a bunch to play with
Also its signature move for a while was Lock-On in side games, so targetting systems LOVE porygon, and vice versa

Also it uses discs to evolve, even a dubious one 
This Pokemon is so fun to write for
So can I submit what I wrote here?
Like this for example
What about my entry? 
Also yeah go for it, you even got it reviewed and everything after all!
You can submit entries here for feedback! Its a good way to improve your writing
How do I do that
I tend to post entries here incase I start slipping, it's good to get a 2nd opinion from time to time, I don't post all of mine here
You just copy paste a draft of an entry with the image of the fusion
What if I already submitted it?
You are then subject to the whims of an Unown 
Damn I was gonna ask about it.
What did you want to ask?
I wrote another one about a pory. Jr just wanted to check if it was good enough but I clicked submit 😕
Deogon2 #380.233
POKENAME are rarely seen floating in space, tricking satellites to send their signals towards them. POKENAME consume these signals, adding to their plentiful energy reserves, which they use to fire high-intensity lasers at incoming meteorites.
Porygon that eats signals
I love this sprite
For future entries I highly recommend using grammarly or google docs to check for grammar errors @warm wolf
I have an unrelated question about the entry but otherwise please make sure your entry is well-formatted before submission
Something like
POKENAME are capable of completely reverting itself into programme data. They use this ability to mimic those it sees by generating itself as them to understand the feelings of others.
Ask
Not to you, to the approval team (The Unown Team)
Okok
See it's trying his best
Oh, @warm wolf Just so you know
Program is the spelling for all software related things, Programme is a valid spelling otherwise but since you're talking about software just remember to use Program
I wasn't sure. I thought it was the American - british difference
Hello! May I ask what in particular Im doing wrong? Or if their are any standout entries I should look at? Just trying to get a better gage on what sparked this is all 🙂
One of the many reasons why you should post into the channel before submission, other writers can help fix it before an Unown reads it 
Thanks. I didn't know.
Man it's already been an hour. This is a lot of work. I only did two and it took one hour. wow
It gets easier over time, I've done more than 4,000 of these over the course of a year
Original Entry:
POKENAME are capable of completely reverting themselves into programme data. They use this ability to mimic those it sees by generating itself as such in order to understand the feelings of others.
Revised Entry:
POKENAME is capable of completely converting themselves into programing data. It uses this ability to mimic those it sees and to understand their feelings.
@warm wolf Are you okay with this fix?
Also, please post your entries in this channel and wait for feedback before submitting more entries, it's easier to talk here than to go back and forth from the google form.
Ok. Perfect
POKENAME are capable of completely converting themselves into programing data. They use this ability to mimic those it sees by copying others in order to understand their feelings.
Do I post like this?
Basically! It also helps if you post the pokemon name and file number
#137.258
Pory. Jr
Pory Jr. #137.258
POKENAME are capable of completely converting themselves into programing data. They use this ability to mimic those it sees and understand their feelings.
Like this
Yeah like that!
Thanks for everything
No problem, you're very receptive to feedback so its all good
Appreciate it. Sorry for taking your time.
Hey I volunteered for this, it's fiiiiine 
He says
This is my first one
Senran #161.32
POKENAME is known for its cautious nature and uses its large ears to detect dangerous Pokémon and warn others. It immobilizes foes using its toxic horn if it feels threatened.
Wait is there porygon z in PIF
There is, you get a dubious disc somewhere along the way I think
All of them?
Ditgon2 #132.233
At night, POKENAME copy data from various machines before returning to their nest to share with other POKENAME. This process is known to corrupt the source of the data, making it unusable.
Some are autogenerated
That's gotta be so annoying to make
It can but that's a spriter's thing
You can check ALL the sprites at https://fusiondex.org/
I interpreted it as it goes and downloads a lot of things and just gets a virus 
It probably does that too

I was thinking it just takes data regardless of if it's good or not
Maybe their nests are like little make-shift data centres

centers? centres? I always mess that up
Ditgon2 making the ram price go up
Just depends on region
Yeah
How do you check what pokemon is fused to make the fusion in fusiondex
A lot of these questions are covered in the pinned msgs
@hexed fog Ay boss this needs a look at #dex-entries-discussion message
New dex update today? 👀
I noticed quite a few FAQ violations in your entries. If you post your entries here you'll see the issues organically rather than all at once
That would also be accessible at the prior response I sent you earlier today: #dex-entries-discussion message
This should be covered in the pinned resources, but USAmerican, British, Australian, and NZ spellings are all correct, since they're all proper English spellings.
Slang is not usually appropriate, including slang spellings.
And also, if you are using regional spelling in the entry, ideally it stays consistent. So if you're using British English spellings they should be used throughout the entire entry.
I see, thank you! Just to clarify, will all of my all ready posted entries have to be sent here before they can be accepted? Or is this just until you or the unown team feel I have a better understanding, were then my entries will be gone through?
From now going forward, until you are notified otherwise. Any previously submitted entries that have been reviewed will be handled separately, this is just notifying you that going forward you have to post here for Unown approval and feedback before submitting using the link
Alright thank you for letting me know!
<@&1210701164426039366> If a sprite is credited as Unknown on the site, does that mean it's not going to be available once th enext update rolls out? I'm working on a custom dex error for this entry atm, but was curious
https://www.fusiondex.org/beedrill+sylveon/
No it means no one knows who made it since either deleted user or lost to time of author
Has no bearing on whether they will be gone next pack
sprites being by an unknown spriter means that its from an older time period where sprites were either grandfathered from Reddit, posted by users who we have lost the usernames for or we just don’t have a trace of where they were made
The entry I made for this was rejected due to no sprite, though so I thought because it was uncredited, it didn't show up on the spreadsheet and was rejected
It’s probably because they were made by that one person who is bad and I will not elaborate on more
No, it just means that the sprite managers don't have it recorded yet who the artist of the sprite is
They found all the sprites they made and are nuking them next pack
If a sprite on FusionDex it exists, credits don't mean the sprite isn't still there
Or are a deleted user now so impossible to know but yeah
So should I continue with making the dex error form or let it be? /gen
There are a lot of sprites that were made by people where the credits fell through the cracks, especially for older sprites that were made in the era of the google drive submissions or when recordkeeping was less finished with setup
a multitude of possibilities, but an unknown spriter still allows for dex entries made
Let me check if it’s in the credit sheet still and if it isn’t there it was nuked
If there's a problem with the entry, you should report it
Even if the sprite does get removed eventually, there's a chance that the dex updates will go out before that happens
@storm light the sprite was nuked
Aight, I'll leave it be for now then and save it for if another sprite is made
did not see this sorry
Chareel #6.86
The flame on POKENAME's tail is incredibly resilient, able to stay lit even when completely submerged underwater. They use this flame to melt holes in the ice, dropping in on prey from above.
This particular entry looks good
Edit: I like that it uses the ice in their environment, the imagery definitely works
Drowamo #96.568
POKENAME are entirely nocturnal, moving in large schools. They seek out sleeping Wailord, swarming their heads in order to feast on their dreams.
their heads? Did you mean around their heads here?
Also that entirely doesn’t need to be there, maybe you can say “POKENAME are nocturnal creatures” instead
Drowamo #96.568
POKENAME are nocturnal creatures that move in large schools. They seek out sleeping Wailord in order to feast on dreams, feasting while the Wailord is asleep.
Something like that
Might need a second opinion
"Around their heads" sounds much more natural I agree. Same with the first sentence
I'll hold off on submitting it though until theres a second opinion
Why Wailord in particular if you don't mind me asking?
“In order to feast on their dreams while the Wailord sleep” mebbe for brevity and less doubles
I mean Les’s doubles sounds more brief or something. I didn’t get enough sleep
Oh I thought the problem list was “please leave this alone” as opposed to “please help us do these but they can be tough”
POKENAME are nocturnal creatures that move in large schools. They seek out sleeping Wailord in order to feast on dreams while the Wailord is asleep.
@delicate cargo What do you think of this revision?
You shouldn't be doing a lot of things while sleepy, writing entries being one of them 🙂
Mebbe
Joltik-porygon2 412.223
Known to feed on energy from low usage devices colonies of POKENAME have been found infesting calculators. This can result in incorrect calculations, whether this is mischief on the part of POKENAME or a malfunction caused by their feeding is unknown.
But I think I’m 251 characters with the full stop
I'm confused, what are you replying to Izik?
This
Oh!
Error caused?
Just to make the 250 lol
Instead of "malfunction caused" try "error caused" I think is what he's trying to say
Oh. Thanks I thought I’d caused an error. I am so sleepy
Tbf i am sleepy too
I do the Dex stuff in my phone while caring for a gremlin too.
I really need to get on my pc and look at the google sheet. It don’t load right on my phone for some reason
It makes us look a lot pickier than we actually are 
Well, I was having trouble thinking of a wording for "large creatures" that sounded natural so I just picked the largest aquatic Pokémon lol. The image of a huge swarm of these guys swarming like a sleeping goldeen or something didnt really fit in my mind
Maybe i should say "they often seek out sleeping Wailord" to convey that its more of a preference rather than what they exclusively prey upon
Nah that's not an issue here, you can mention Pokemon for many reasons so long as they are in game
What do you think about this revision though? If you like entry I would say go ahead and submit it as is.
POKENAME are nocturnal creatures that move in large schools. They seek out sleeping Wailord in order to feast on dreams while the Wailord is asleep.
It looks good yeah! I'll go ahead and submit it! 🙂
Someone gimme a porygon2 that eats data from areas of cyberspace that have low traffic
It’s keeping me awake enough to make sure this kid doesn’t hurt himself
Oh god, if you're babysitting please stay awake, children are brats and will set the house on fire
Babysitting? It’s my kid bruv. And he had surgery 5 days ago and I’ve forgotten what sleep is
Looooool children
And he brought home a sniffly nose from hospital
Oh gimme a porygon that monitors homes through webcams
You could write your ideas in a google doc or something and review/post them when you're not sleep deprived. Write sleepy; edit awake. I think some famous writer said something kinda like that 
Most of them sit on my phone for my days.
me citing myself in a nutshell
Anyway I wrote tired and Izik loved it I must just be better tired
By manipulating spacian energy throughout the world called starian, POKENAME is able to detect irregularities in celestial bodies' rotations. It is able to communicate using starian, manifesting through it being able to speak like a human.```
I saw this was getting rejected since it says FAQ 24, so if we write a dex entry on a Lucario fusion/Pokemon that understands human language, we can't further its ability to understand further by being able to speak its language then?
I think this entry got hit by an FAQ because you invented too many terms
No actually it's because FAQ 24
Oh, let me check the details, might be more complicated
I could reword it to have less made up terms (just one though)
Tbh I thought spacian was a real word
Can you show a Lucario or Clefable can use human communication? Like maybe a bulbapedia citation
Beatdoof's entries gonna have me playing these games with a dictionary and a thesaurus on standby
I love them, but sometimes I just 🥴
Not literally able to speak like a human but they can communicate and understand humans
Let me loop in the rest of the Unown and they'll help figure this out
I'll reword the entry anyway just a bit without the 'spacian' word
By manipulating star-like pulses within it called starian, POKENAME is able to detect irregularities in celestial bodies' rotations. It is able to communicate using starian, manifesting through it being able to speak like a human.
I think lucario essentially vibe checks and gets a general intention understanding, though there never was a full confirmation on things iirc?
Correct me if I'm wrong, but a lot of pokemon can talk telepathically? But Lucario can COMMUNICATE via aura stuff, like as seen with Riley in the anime? IDK if Lucario technically 'talks' per se?
*by a lot of pokemon I mostly mean like legendaries and mythicals for the most part
By manipulating starry pulses within POKENAME's body, it is able to detect irregularities in celestial bodies' rotations.
EDIT: I think this works to remove the made-up words while retaining the original meaning
By manipulating star-like pulses within it, POKENAME is able to detect irregularities in celestial bodies' rotations. It is able to communicate using this same star-like energy, allowing it to speak like humans.
That should work I think?
Well mostly still waiting on the 'Lucario can literally speak' dongle first lol
Wait that didn't make sense, shoot
Incidentally I posted the wrong sprite this should've been Clefairy/Lucario whoops (but the issue is the same still I think but no other problems LOL)
Maybe we could say something like:
"It is able to communicate clearly using these starry pulses to convey their thoughts."
@willow venture What do you think of the edit of the second sentence? I think it works better since it avoids the human issue and leans more on the clarity aspect
So the tribunal says Lucario fusions can't literally speak yes?
Bit lame but I suppose it be like that
I forgot to ping them 🙀
By manipulating star-like pulses within it, POKENAME is able to detect irregularities in celestial bodies' rotations. It is able to communicate using this same starry pulses to convey its thoughts and feelings.
I would personally love if Lucario can speak myself so I'll be waiting on that one lol
<@&1210701164426039366> #dex-entries-discussion message
We're trying to clean up a denied entry and I need help with that. Thanks y'all!
Hello! I noticed a couple tiny errors in my submissions today (facepalming) but they aren't reviewed yet so they wouldn't go in #custom-dex-errors -- should I post said edits here? or just wait for unown feedback?
(Oh whoops sorry, didn't mean to interuppt)
An unown will likely fix them because it is a small error
Appreciated, thanks!
Unown fusion dex entries referencing the discord unowns when?
Hypamo #97.568
Large schools of POKENAME swim in perfect sync, moving in hypnotic patterns that put anybody who sees them to sleep. Once their prey is asleep, they consume their dreams in order to charge their psychic energy.
Feels like it would be a conflict of interest if we did it ourselves 
what? Nooooooooo 
@small sundial I have a question about one of your entries.
https://fusiondex.org/rotom+chikorita/
It uses the hologram on its head to measure humidity and temperature. POKENAME is adored by Trainers who love plants, but struggle to keep them in good health.
What did you mean that "but struggle to keep them in good health" Did you mean the trainer has a hard time keeping the Pokémon in good health? Or the Pokémon struggles to keep plants in good health?
Oh! I meant houseplants, as in the rotom/chikorita helps out by acting as a humidity/temp meter
I'm still confused about what you meant 
Are you saying that the Trainer has a hard time keeping houseplants in good health?
correct!
Gotcha, lemme fix that...
POKENAME uses a sensor on its head to measure humidity and temperature, making it a helpful companion for trainers with houseplants.
Is this a little more straightforward?
I'll fix that for you, thank you!
Wait
That's one sentence
Gotta add another one 
Duly noted! I was just kinda spur-of-the-moment posting, so I'll discuss here in future 
ah whoops the second sentence slipped away from me. I hope this doesn't add/change too much, but thought I'd elaborate on the "helping with houseplants" line of lore
POKENAME uses a sensor on its head to measure humidity and temperature, making it a helpful companion for trainers with houseplants. It beeps when it senses a plant that needs to be watered.
Sure, why not, let me just do some magic on my end
Oddish-Porygon2 43.233
The Nocturnal POKENAME uses Conversion to disguise itself as tall grass or moss covered stones to avoid predators during the day. If disturbed POKENAME emit a loud static screech that has frightened many gardeners working on overgrown plots.
I want to work on wording more. But the idea feels nice
Is there still plenty of Porygon2 thingies
It sounds to me everybody has got first dibs on all of them LMAO
It's first come first serve yeah
Not many left so snag one while you can
How do I even check those who already first dibs'd it
Wasn't there an internal site that can check it posted here lol
In the google sheet, the only ones that appear in the Problem Pokemon List are the ones that have no entry but have a sprite
Much appreciated, thank you for your help Psyduck!
Does the problem pokemon list automatically update as people submit entries for it or does it only remove them once approved?
Wow it's literally all the Porygon2 bodies LMAOOOO
<@&1210701164426039366> Does the problem list only update on submission or on approval? I don't know this myself 
It changes every few weeks as like a challenge or something for veteran authors
submission
if they get denied it will be visible again
Do you think I'm a veteran author
Once you get out of channel posting purgatory and read the entire lorebook and FAQ list I would possibly consider it. It is a fuss to deal with those entries in general so getting them one and done is helpful
Ah, good to know!
I did actually
At least if the lack of magenta in the sheet is to be believed
Wait you're out of channel purgatory? Congratulations
How dare you say I didn't read the lorebook and FAQ
Time has been a blur lately, I still remember the first day I started typing

Rono #358.97
POKENAME are a common cause of oversleeping, inhabiting alarm clocks to prevent them from going off. They do this to keep their targets asleep for longer, feeding on their dreams.
It is soft to the touch, and quite unarmed in a battle of wits. If it detects the slightest irregularity in its normal day-to-day operations, it will screech in a still-unknown language, permanently breaking any electronic device in a 500m radius.```
Does this sound haha funny enough
Wait it can be better
It is soft to the touch and is completely unarmed in a battle of wits.
I love it btw it gives the head empty vibe
I'm not quite sure how the first and second sentence relate, but it could work
EDIT: It is also correct grammatically correct
I sure love the Ctrl+T, highlight area and Shift+Drag Selection's corner technique
It's epic

@haughty crag due to repeated errors please post your entries here for review before submitting again. this way you can understand what we are looking for
Someone give me a porygon that eats data from security systems via security cams
And one that causes extreme distortions on security cams it is seen on
You want an Observation Duty porygon?
Sure
I just need the porygon done
Fair
I can't sleep so I'll probably do a few more soon, I got sidetracked last night instead of my porygon duty

I appreciate it lol
@hexed fog I'm slowly coming up with entries, it's quite difficult with my limited knowledge of computers. I'm a basic windows user I don't know any of all this fancy stuff
I'd post things on my own pace at last now that I'm de-magenta'd but I need to make sure this sounds correct
POKENAME lives right beneath the deep ocean, burrowing deep under the abyssal plain. Despite that, it is a truly friendly Pokémon that lets weaker ocean Pokémon live together with it, feeding them with detritus collected with its unbreakable jaw.```
That's the fun part, dex entries are not just made by scientific researchers. They are also aided by witness accounts from trainers, civilians or even books or manuscripts long forgotten.
I think I just need a phrasing help or is it clear enough that this mon collects detritus (deep ocean food) by collecting them using its mouth (jaw)?
You don't gotta know much about computers, just that you know that computers exist and things they can create
Are we certain Izik isn't secretly planning a heist? 
Despite that, it is a truly friendly Pokémon that lets weaker ocean Pokémon live together with it. feeding them with detritus collected with its unbreakable jaw.
I don't think you meant to make that two sentences?
- "POKENAME lives" only really works if we're talking about a singular mon in its species, no?
- "... live together with it. feeding them..." should probably have a comma, like "... live together with it
,feeding them.."
Also the abbysal plains are on the deep oceans right? Why would these guys ever come out from there? That's so far away

Yes
That's what the sandy ground/land on the deep seas are called actually
Other than the accidental extra sentence, I don't see any problems with it
It's a comma yea
I'm questioning if its just beneath or right beneath, knowing full well both could be okay
right beneath is a sort of informal way of talking, but it's not strictly incorrect
Right beneath is fine
I would prefer just beneath, but if I came across it after submission, I wouldn't alter that part
Ye I personally don't wanna alter writing styles, I just wanna make sure they follow TOS and make sense

Differing writing styles makes the world feel more like multiple people are writing the dex and that's epic
I think my writing style differs enough from most of you guys
For one I am extremely wordy and boundary pushing 
That's good! I don't want to read the same thing over and over
Snorgon2 #143.233a
When POKENAME sleep, their stomachs display an accurate representation of their dreams, powered by the massive amount of food they consume. POKENAME are often surrounded by smaller Pokémon, unknowingly amazing them with these visual spectacles.
This one was a lot tougher than I'd like to admit
Rogon2 #358.233c
POKENAME feed off the information they obtain by surveying their surroundings, adjusting their image to be enticing to others. When POKENAME has tempted someone, they will do anything in their power to keep their attention for as long as possible.

POKENAME's tough shell can withstand extremely cold temperatures. By releasing freezing cold air from the crystals on their bodies, they encase themselves in ice, remaining frozen until ready to evolve.
@dry turret I've been submitting my username wrong (put a space in it), please advise if I just re-submit or is there another method for fix
Auroduck #462.54
If POKENAME's headaches become too painful, they will release violent blizzards from their bodies. To combat this, they use the gem on their foreheads to freeze the tops of their heads, easing the pain.
First of all, I'm afraid you just pinged a user named unown - careful about that
. The role should come up as a selectable option if you type "@unowns".
I've gone ahead and fixed your username on the entries you've submitted. As to your question, you either can let us know about issues like this in #custom-dex-errors or just resubmit the entries in the future.
Oh bugger really?
I’ve done server admin elsewhere before I should’ve spotted that wasn’t a role.
Sorry Unown
Thank you for that. I swear man you have 1 kid and half your brain falls out your ears. I forgot there was a global display name on discord
w/ these new rules we can still say a pokemon is "said to have" come from the moon or etc., right (not writing a particular entry just a general question)
Yeah, absolutely.
When in doubt always go with "it is said" "ancient myths say" "historical tales tell"
You can get away with most of these things being factual when you're using legendaries tho
is this ok lolAfter fusing with Giratina, POKENAME has lost all sense. Mercilessly and single-mindedly, it demolishes everything standing in its Trainer's way. It is said the death tolls of wars of antiquity are owed to emperors' possession of POKENAME.
or must i change it a somewhat bowdlerized It is said that the wars of antiquity were in no small part decided by emperors' possession of POKENAME.
That's three sentences
You could abolish the first sentence
POKENAME demolishes everything standing in its trainer's way with no mercy, losing all sense but its loyalty. It is said the death tolls of wars of antiquity are owed to emperors' possession of POKENAME.
That should work imo
Is that grammatically correct tho.
Yeah it is
It sounds wrong for some reason
POKENAME demolishes everything standing in its trainer's way with no mercy, losing all sense but its loyalty. It is said that the death tolls of wars of antiquity are owed to emperors who possessed this creature.
Don't worry I know why it sounds wrong
Some of the phrasings was way too awkward lol
Yeah it doesn't make sense if you don't read it completely if u understand what I mean
it's more the first sentence that reads to me as an insecure idiom imo—specifically, it reads as if it is losing all sense but its loyalty in the process of demolishing everything, when really there's meant to be a relationship of anteriority
could be fixed by ", having lost all sense but its loyalty."
anyway: It is warned that, out of attachment to its deceased trainers, POKENAME will try to retrieve their souls from the spirit world, but that in setting souls adrift from their predestined course, it does more harm than good.
Is sight not a sense 
Having lost all sense but its loyalty, POKENAME demolishes everything standing in its trainer's way with no mercy. It is said that the death tolls of wars of antiquity are owed to emperors who possessed this creature.
Works for you I think
how do we handle indefinite articles with POKENAME. should we choose ‘a’ or ‘an’ based on the actual name of the fusion, or just avoid them entirely
oops
I say avoid them if possible, you can use other words instead. Use it like "A wild POKENAME" but "A POKENAME" seems a bit wrong
But that's just my opinion
yes i think canon entries don't typically use them afaict from looking for two seconds
but then that leaves the question open of how to describe Incidents.. like "it is said a Pikachu once fell down a hole because its so dumb." type statements
Dragonite/Charizard #149.6
POKENAME are known for their honourable nature. Although they are capable of winning battles in an instant with their incredible flight speed, they refrain from doing so to keep the battle honourable and fair.
You know it doesn't make sense because you wouldn't define an entire species with one of its species, would you
@dry roost due to multiple instances of issues in your latest entries, please get your entries reviewed here before submitting more.
Also there is a rule against this
The 9th one i think
I think the example would look more like
"It is said POKENAME's lackluster intelligence comes from the first of its kind falling off a hole, damaging its brains."
Maybe?
dont do this
treat it as its own pokemon
I think an incident can be written but very specific like how I wrote
Unless that one doesn't work either lol
But his example is a bit different. Id say generally just avoid it
no
origins are a no-go
it would literally not make sense if someone fused one a week ago
idk how close i am to getting that role but dammit i wanna make sure so i threw in a few more entries 
Just make 1000 entries right now
I would presume if it's on the fusiondex it already has been fusioned for awhile for it to work
No brakes
idk why people are so obsessed with coming up with origins
I get it
Giratina origin form 
Not everyone wants to just write rote facts about a mon's behavior
I like writing stuff about the mons themselves because it's a public dex entry for other trainers to hopefully learn from when they find a new Pokemon

"it is said to ..." 
Yeah but Izik said it's bad even with that clarifier lol
Or "it is believed that..."
It is said to NOT originate from.. 
"It is known to not" would actually be a great starter for an entr
I'm gonna try smth with it
let's make it a goal to not /purposely/ make the Unown Team's job more difficult
Counter argument: the official dex entries /j
You know, I think Unowns should be able to throw tomatos at people, just for fun
They do enough for us
Despite its looks, POKENAME is not known for its melodious cries, but rather for its surprisingly screechy rattle tail. It doesn't seem to be aware of the noise's quality.```
Idk I think I cooked smth funny there
It'd be nice to know more about the Pokemon instead, personally
Its tone-deaf and it has a screeching rattletail
Yes but you could remove a lot of this and say that exact same thing
That might just be me though
Well of course I could but that's why I'm experimenting with "it is known not to" as part of the entry
Despite its looks, POKENAME rattle tail is surprisingly quite screechy, and it doesn't seem to be aware of the noise's quality.```
But if you want to be rote then there's this idk

I was just giving my opinion on how I saw it, you're more than welcome to do what you like with it
And I opined back on your vision so its all good
Porygon-z/Jigglypuff
The songs of POKENAME are known for their unsettling nature; it is said that hearing a song from a band of POKENAME can result in nightmares or insomnia for weeks.
Not too proud of this one
Not sure if i should use herd of or not
Now I think it's better
Would "a band of" make more sense
Chorus?
What's that?
A group of singers
So when you have a group of singers as a part of the orchestra.
Or for the church.
Chorus.
You can say "a group of POKENAME is called a band"
Or orchestra
I would avoid religious words lol
I did not think chorus was an inherently religious word
Yeah " a band of" feels better to say
I just don’t have the bandwidth to look it up and the church singers is an example of a chorus that I know
I’m in the same boat man
Someone do an entry on how somehow a shuckle porygon2 can make real juice from image files it gathers
Do I have to?
I think we might be paddling in opposite directions though. That might be why my heads spinning
Okok. That was gonna annoying, trying to incorporate it
Well i guess I'll submit it
Is anyone doing this?
Go for it
Ok
We gotta make up scientific but also goofy collective nouns for groups of Pokemon, like a business of Furrets 
That's hilarious
Also someone do a qwilfish/porygon2 the releases electric pulses in fast moving ocean currents
Imagine An office building filled with furret lol
Also i'm going to bed, i'll do it in the morning. Just remind me 
An exeggutor/porygon2 that makes its trunk extremely rigid when it sees tourists on its beach
Also, a group of emus is called a mob, a group of rhinos is called a crash, and a group of quail is called a bevy or covey
Do with these what you will, gnight yall
