[willow venture]

Come on man at least let me try writing 300 entries first...

https://tenor.com/view/angry-anime-cute-anime-girl-chibi-gif-1474030282084313143

[rich goblet]

Before I get to fixing up the entry, welcome on in!

When writing for a Pokedex entry, it is important to know that you are writing for a sprite and for an entire species.

The quickest way we can do that with the first sentence is with the follow fix (and other fixes)

This rare fusion can be found socializing exclusively with flocks of Mareep, grazing near large bodies of water.

The second part is pretty easy to clean up too

Personal accounts state that POKENAME's discarded wool made after shedding can bring shepherds of their flock incredible luck and fortune

Together it is:

This rare fusion can be found socializing exclusively with flocks of Mareep, grazing near large bodies of water. Personal accounts state that POKENAME's discarded wool made after shedding can bring shepherds incredible luck and fortune.

[delicate cargo]

If Im not mistaken this is over 250 characters so you'd want to trim it up a bit 🙂

[rich goblet]

The revision I made fits if they want to use that

[light tangle]

Did my darnedest to bring it down with my first draft and got it down to 248, but thankfully with Psyduck's help here we can most certainly get it further away from the upper limit. Haha! 😄

[light tangle]

Oh my goodness that is very nicely slimmed down and coherent! 🤣 The only hiccup I can see is my intention with the "grazing near large bodies of water" as I want it to be focused on the flocks of Mareep instead of the fusion (Matini is drawn to mareep that gather and eat near it's home). Would changing it to "flocks of Mareep that graze near large bodies of water." work? Or is that perhaps still too much of a run-on sentence in your opinion? Or perhaps you already knew my intention and your revision works perfectly fine with my line of thinking and I'm reading too much into it! LOL

[rich goblet]

One sec, I see what you're saying

This rare fusion can be found socializing exclusively with flocks of Mareep that graze near large bodies of water. Personal accounts state that POKENAME's discarded wool made after shedding can bring shepherds incredible luck and fortune.

@light tangle Yeah what you said would fix the misinterpretation, fixed above

Oh, and read the google form carefully, especially the part about the username

[light tangle]

Will do!

[storm light]

I wanna see some sylveon fusions that cause some mischief, as a treat (prompt! ✏️)

[steel aurora]

"underneath is are usually" you should put "underneath are usually" remove the is

[willow venture]

@cosmic hornet out of curiosity when you wrote Giratina/Girafarig did you remember reading my entry lol

It's pretty much the same concept but you executed the explainer better than I did then which is awesome

[warm wolf]

If POKENAME are properly raised, they will show utmost loyalty to their trainers. When engaged in battle, they use their incredible control in aura to telepathically pelt their foes with rocks.```

[shy portal]

does uranium exist in the pokemon universe

[hexed fog]

The game or element

[shy portal]

element

[hexed fog]

Sure it would stand to reason it could be used in a PowerPoint

Omg

Power plant

[strong flame]

hard to look up because you just end up with results for the fangame

[shy portal]

uranium powerpoint

anyway reason why i ask
im not good at word but this thing eats uranium
if anyone needs a free pokedex idea lol

[steel aurora]

Feedback?
POKENAME stores static charge within its body, releasing crackling bursts as it moves. When it dances, it rapidly builds electricity, and the longer it keeps rhythm, the more powerful its attacks become.

[west tulip]

wouldn't it keeps "the" rythm be better ?

also heyo lol

[steel aurora]

yo

[steel aurora]

i guess it would

[west tulip]

it's a very cool idea tho

[warm wolf]

I'm gonna submit this. Any feedback

[steel aurora]

It sounds good! you should submit it

[warm wolf]

Ok

I was waiting for feedback and honestly just forgot to submit it

[warm wolf]

Anyone doing this idea

[west tulip]

i wasn't planning on it

[steel aurora]

me neither

[warm wolf]

https://tenor.com/view/thanos-gif-25117042

[west tulip]

hf then lol

[warm wolf]

What fusion is this?

[shy portal]

minior espeon

[warm wolf]

Oh i spelled minior wrong i think

The energy exuding from POKENAME can power an entire powerplant for weeks. Although they need to eat uranium to continue releasing this energy, many consider this a fine tradeoff for manageable and usable energy.```

Not really proud of the sentence structure on this one

Better but maybe over the character limit.

It's not over the character limit

So should I submit it

[azure wagon]

I think the 2nd sentence needs a little adjusting

maybe something like the workers/researchers/engineers find this a suitable tradeoff..."Many consider this a suitable tradeoff..."

[west tulip]

yup exactly what i was thinking

cause the last sentence in itself is a bit weird

[warm wolf]

Oh yeah

[west tulip]

or just put a comma instead of fisnishing the sentence

[warm wolf]

Like this?

[west tulip]

yeah !!!

[warm wolf]

So should I submit it, is everything else fine

[west tulip]

seems to be for me !

[warm wolf]

Ok I'm submitting it

Done

[west tulip]

yayyyy

imma write chespin entries

cause chespin is my baby

[warm wolf]

Alright

I want to get the top 20 for my top 10 pokemon but I really just haven't been getting any great ideas or any ideas in general.

Specifically for my boy lucario, I don't know what to write except what his entry already says so just haven't been doing entries

[west tulip]

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/1.479/
The bulb around POKENAME’s head is way thicker than it looks. I acts as both a shield and an energy storage.

[warm wolf]

"It acts" not "i acts"

You missed it

[west tulip]

are you reading the official dex entries of the two members of the fusions ? might help

[warm wolf]

Yeah

[west tulip]

oopsie, typo- ty !

[warm wolf]

I written 2 so far

[west tulip]

it's already good !!

[west tulip]

was that theonly fix needed ?

[warm wolf]

Might just be me but wouldn't "a storage for energy" be better

[west tulip]

yup

The bulb around POKENAME’s head is way thicker than it looks. It acts as both a shield and a storage for energy.

what do we think ?

[warm wolf]

Nice

You should post it or if you want wait for more feedback

[west tulip]

imma do some more chespin entries and them post multiple at once

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/2.479/
The scent of POKENAME’s bud often attracts predators. Unfortunately for them, its leaves are as sharp as blades, and the slightest touch could cut you.

that last sentence is very wrongly worded ik

idk how to word it so if anyone has ideas i'll take em

[azure wagon]

However, its leaves are as sharp as blades, protecting the growing bud from serious harm.

something like this maybe?

[west tulip]

:0

love it tyyy

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/4.479/
The flame on POKENAME’s tail burns brighter if it feels strong emotions. Newborn POKENAME often accidentally burn their quills when they get too happy.

idk if i can use it at first and then them since i'm not talking about the same quantity of mons

would it be considered a syntax/grammar error ?

[azure wagon]

it would be, you will have to stick to a singular (it) or plural (they)

i ran into that issue a bunch when i started writing lol

[west tulip]

they it is then

ty

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/9.479/
The top of POKENAME’s head, just as its back, is covered by a thick shell that protects it from even the strongest impacts. The cannons on its back can release small but incredibly powerful water jets.

[warm wolf]

The flame at the end of POKENAME's tail is said to be hotter than the surface of the sun. Yet this prideful Pokémon primarily uses its powerful claws to destroy its foes, leading to the flames becoming weaker.```

Not sure if this is a reference pokemon

[west tulip]

v cool

[warm wolf]

Any grammatical error tho

[west tulip]

don't think so ? I'm not the best at grammar tho

you used their at first and then its tho

[warm wolf]

Used its four times

[west tulip]

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/15.479/
Despite its friendly appearance, POKENAME is extremely territorial and will not hesitate to fight intruders off. Its stingers are poisonous, but it usually only attacks with headbutts.

[warm wolf]

That's concerning

[west tulip]

replace one with POKENAME maybe

[warm wolf]

Then i would use POKENAME three times

[west tulip]

uhhhhhhh

maybe the flame again instead of its flames ? two is better than four-

or instead of pokename type "this prideful Pokémon"

[warm wolf]

Is this better

[west tulip]

feedback on the two other ones i posted please ?

[west tulip]

very !!!

[warm wolf]

Submitted

Man was that a chore

[west tulip]

yayyyyy

i can guess lol

i submitted Bulbasaur/Chespin, Ivysaur/Chespin and Charmander/Chespin too

[warm wolf]

If only there was a Pokémon fusion that will fix your grammar.

Wait that may be a great idea lol

[keen kestrel]

Unown/porygon 😛

[west tulip]

waiting for feedback on Blastoise/Chespin and Beedrill/chespin to submit them as well ! in the meanwhile, imma keep going with the chespin entries lol

[warm wolf]

That one isn't grammar checking

You got my hopes up for nothing.

[west tulip]

pidgey/chespin looks amazing lol

[warm wolf]

maybe fight off intruders?

[west tulip]

i knew something sounded off

ty

[warm wolf]

np

[west tulip]

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/16.479/
POKENAME hates fighting and usually hides in tall herbs or sand. If it's startled, it may attack with its sharp beak, hard as wood.

[west tulip]

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/19.479/
The more POKENAME eats, the sturdier its head gets. This is why it usually lives where food is available, whether it’s in a plantation or near the bins of a restaurant.

i personally think it's adorable

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/23.479/
Every month or so, the skin on its head sheds, revealing the soft quills underneath. It then takes a month to harden before shedding again.

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/25.479a/
POKENAME can harden the quills on its head if it focuses enough. However, it might release a bit of electricity from the sacs on its cheeks as a result.

[keen kestrel]

These are all great

Go off (chesp)king

[west tulip]

no grammar/syntax/anything else errors ?

[rich goblet]

Nothing major, just know that the Unowns will fix your entries for you if it’s a minor grammatical error

[azure wagon]

either pick might or sometimes

together it sounds a bit informal

[rich goblet]

I’m currently on mobile so I can’t help much right now

[west tulip]

ik but if i can make their work easier..

[west tulip]

tyty

i'll submit them all later !

[hexed fog]

It's rare but we do reword entries from time to time... but it's usually for people who dont really care. We always keep the original intent in the entry

Most of the folks who have been pumping out entries like Katie/Sk/etc dont gaf which is so nice when I'm like "i know what you're going for let me just.. "

Theyre chill with it

[keen kestrel]

This is sooo minor but would “on a plantation” work better than “in a plantation”?

[keen kestrel]

This is technically fine but i think “like its back” would be less wordy. Maybe that’s just how i would do it idk haha

[west tulip]

it definitely would

i always struggle with in/on/at-

[west tulip]

maybe ? I don't know if making it less wordy is necessary or not-

since it fits in the character limit

[keen kestrel]

I was thinking that just because the sentence is already pretty long for the simple thing it’s saying, but up to you 👍

[west tulip]

true

[narrow cosmos]

Outside of them being marked as rewritten half the time I don't even know/remember what was fixed whenever you guys do a "typo/grammar" rework.

[west tulip]

should I continue on chespin entries or leave some for other ppl ?

[acoustic scarab]

I'm gonna be so real with you

I don't even look at the sheet these days XD

I just submit entries and forget I've submitted them

I just like knowing I'm helping complete the dex

[keen kestrel]

Up to u tbh
If someone makes an entry for their own sprite it gets priority anyway. So feel free to keep going if you want

[rich goblet]

This is a good mentality to have, also appreciate the entries you write

[acoustic scarab]

the creative exercise is neat

helps maintain my interest in the game too

[rich goblet]

The creative exercise is definitely helping my cortisol levels, I get a bit of whimsy everyday

[acoustic scarab]

it's important to get a daily dose of whimsy

helps distract from having to deal with shoplifters at work -.-

[rich goblet]

In an ideal society where people don't lose money, people can have shoplifting as a treat for adrenaline. Sadly everything costs money

[steel aurora]

POKENAME drifts peacefully through the night sky, its glowing segments resembling floating lanterns. It is often released during festivals, where its gentle light creates breathtaking displays.

[rich goblet]

Clean entry, go ahead and submit that

I like the concept behind it too

[steel aurora]

ty ty

ooohhh i got another cool one

No matter the threat, POKENAME prioritizes the safety of its egg above all else. Its soft body absorbs impacts as it shields the egg from harm.

[rich goblet]

It's missing a little bit of drifbloon in there, maybe you could talk about how it flies or what it does with the egg?

A good entry references something from both component pokemon, no matter how small

[steel aurora]

Though capable of floating high above the ground, POKENAME never risks strong winds that could endanger its egg. It carefully adjusts its path to ensure a smooth and stable flight.

[rich goblet]

I'm going through the list in semi chronological order but feel free to post it, any minor grammar things will be fixed by yours truly

[west tulip]

exactly !!!

• it might help me for a future job since I wanna become a narrative designer and it gives me a slight bit of experience

also it's fun !!!

[west tulip]

true

[warm wolf]

why was mine marked as yellow i thought i wrote correct spelling for pokemon

[acoustic scarab]

Pokémon has the little accent and is capitalised (this is without me actually looking at the sheet)

[warm wolf]

i did do that

[acoustic scarab]

then I would have to look at the sheet XD

[rich goblet]

Was it the entry or the file number?

File number means you'll need to share the sprite as it has multiple entries

[warm wolf]

i did

[storm light]

Looks like it's a second entry lol

that explains it

[rich goblet]

It's no biggie if its yellow, just means another person has written for that sprite. It doesn't even mean your entry won't be approved, just that it'll need to share space

See? That one was not approved anyway

[warm wolf]

oh in the instructions it said yellow means its pokemon spelled wrong

[storm light]

That's if the entry itself is highlighted in yellow

If it's just the filename then it's sharing an entry space, whether or not the other entries have been approved

[rich goblet]

File number and Entry are different

[storm light]

it'll look like this when the entry is highlighted

[warm wolf]

ok got it

[steel aurora]

For some reason it won't let me view if my entry was approved cuz it keeps saying "bad internet connection" while it's good

[warm wolf]

are u on phone

[rich goblet]

I recommend only using the sheet on PC, as it takes an absurd bandwidth on phones

[warm wolf]

it did that for me when i was on phone

[steel aurora]

I did but it sais I have resource applications and I can't enter the site?

I prolly have some cashe I need to delete

[rich goblet]

weird

[warm wolf]

i just beat surge so i gotta do like 10 more entries

[steel aurora]

alr got it working

[narrow cosmos]

Been in good form today, managed to punch out a bunch of Sylveon entries since last night.

[warm wolf]

Sylveon/flaffy #339.180 This Pokémon wraps its ribbonlike feelers around its foes to lower their guard before sending powerful shockwave through it to defeat them.

Due to its ability to read the emotions of others, POKENAME is always concerned for them. When it sees a person in need of comfort, it will try to hug them but due to its wools property it electrecutes them instead.

Mareep/sylveon #339.179
Herds of POKENAME are found huddled together, they do this to generate large ammount of static electricity or just to provide warmth to eachother.

Not sure about the grammar. I'm tired I'll prolly fix it later

[dusty hound]

small batch

POKENAME are often seen in groups, spinning together as they are converting sunlight into energy. they move in herds in search of more sunlight, sharing energy with one another. When night falls, they close their petals and root themselves in the ground becoming completely still ``` 

``` Electivire/Hitmontop #267.237 
During battle, POKENAME presses the tips of its two tails together while spinning on its head, generating immense electric surges. This motion creates a vortex dragging in nearby foes  shocking them with 20,000 volts along side a barrage of lighting fast kicks``` 

``` Electabuzz/Hitmontop #125.237
POKENAME is often spotted around power plants, spinning on its head to feed on the electricity. When it is fully charged, it can power homes during blackouts however, it is often the cause of them.  ```

[warm wolf]

https://tenor.com/view/ش-gif-9093367425263329574

I know this guy likes hitmontop but I can't prove it.

[dusty hound]

https://tenor.com/view/cat-scared-gif-27466237

I have no idea what you're talking about

[warm wolf]

I'm onto you

[dusty hound]

https://tenor.com/view/sweats-gif-25346666

[pale venture]

Hitmontop doesn't seem very shy, my guy

Wait a minute

[azure wagon]

March is almost over, so don't forget to check out the April Dexchallenge here~ 🌼

[steel aurora]

Found near arcades and bustling shops, POKENAME emits playful signals that entice kids to spend coins. It gifts treats to kids, absorbing the cheerful atmosphere it helps create.

[rich goblet]

newcomers? That's an odd word

[steel aurora]

yeah well i wanted to say kids but i tought it would be weird

[rich goblet]

new players maybe

Nah kids is fine

I have one where the pokemon is a cross guard, I haven't submitted it yet because its part of an event but like

[steel aurora]

since in the lore it steals kids

[rich goblet]

Oh the lore doesn't have to be strict

[steel aurora]

ohh yeah it sounds good

[steel aurora]

so should i keep "it gifts treats to kids"

[rich goblet]

The only thing I have a minor gripe about is more preference based

replace 'that draw people closer'
with 'that entice kids to spend coins' or something like that

You're doing great I'm just thinking about improvements

[steel aurora]

so like this:
Found near arcades and bustling shops, POKENAME emits playful signals that entice kids to spend coins. It gifts treats to kids, absorbing the cheerful atmosphere it helps create.

[steel aurora]

i also got another idea a few hours back but i didn't really like it, ill send it here so i can get ur opinion

POKENAME is known to chase storm clouds, absorbing their lightning to increase its strength and endurance. Its calming presence turns harsh weather into gentle skies, lifting the spirits of those nearby.

[rich goblet]

I just realized that the entice and the gifts sort of contradict each other, I'll let you decide which to change My bad

[rich goblet]

I think the absorbing lightning bit is fine but maybe be more direct with the whole purpose

"absorbing the lightning to slowly siphon away the storm" or something such

[steel aurora]

Found near arcades and bustling shops, POKENAME emits playful signals that attract curious kids inside. It gifts treats to visitors, absorbing the cheerful atmosphere it helps create.

i like this one, could it do?

since i didn't want to limit the gifts to just kids, i wanted it to be all visiotrs

[rich goblet]

You have my Spheal of approval

[steel aurora]

Something like this?
POKENAME is known to chase storm clouds, absorbing their lightning to slowly siphon away the storm while increasing its strength and endurance. Its calming presence turns harsh weather into gentle skies, lifting the spirits of those nearby.

[rich goblet]

The strength and endurance part doesn't add much to the entry. Or at least I'm not seeing the connection

[steel aurora]

yeah you're right, it should be a calming pokemon

so something like this?
POKENAME is known to chase storm clouds, absorbing their lightning to slowly siphon away the storm. Its calming presence turns harsh weather into gentle skies, lifting the spirits of those nearby.

[dusty hound]

[olive ermine]

So
IRL this would be Venomous. Venom is injected through bites or stings. Poison makes you sick when you ingest it.

In Pokemon I have no idea because the status effect is poison. So for the unowns, what should be used?

Jeez you guys have been busy since yesterday

[olive ermine]

I also often use the component mons entries for inspo but remember. They’re don’t have to be the two creatures fused. Once they fuse they are a new species with their own habits and physiology. You could try looking at abilities and moves for inspo. How does it use rock smash( If it learns it) in day to day. What might it eat that rock smash would help it get to

[final briar]

sorry, I took off right after you started sending me these lol, but I am gonna try now! ❤️

[hexed fog]

lol I already did it

we needed to get the porygons done so we could start on the sylveon heads so I just banged them out

[final briar]

oh no I'm sorry!

[hexed fog]

lol aint no stress

it's pokemon

[final briar]

what other pokemon could I possibly use for a speedrunner's partner that helps speed up their computer's RAM for competition? I thought that was a cute idea, got from bouncing off from your blurb

[hexed fog]

Rotom something

[final briar]

hm hm I like it

[rigid finch]

reshiram prices skyrocketing because of heavy porygon investment

wait actually that could work lmao

[final briar]

what, a Reshiram/Porygon? :0

[rigid finch]

considering the ends of reshiRAM and zekROM's names, i'd say maybe try porygon/reshiram

so that ram is in the name

[final briar]

that's cute, I like that

[rigid finch]

was thinking for 2 extra seconds and now the term "porygongpt" is stuck in my head

[storm light]

already did that

[rigid finch]

why does this fit so well for chatgpt 😭

[storm light]

because it's true

especially when it comes to PIF

I've seen people post ai overview answers on how to find/catch certain legendary Pokemon that are just entirely incorrect. No shame on them of course, the overview is more accessible in the moment than the wiki

[rigid finch]

bet you didn't know about the secret 502nd pokemon

ligma

https://tenor.com/view/document-signing-sign-shrek-shrek-meme-gif-14026138333329294270

[final briar]

Poryram 275.349b
While living in one's computer, POKENAME can speed up the device by three times its normal capabilities. Because of this, POKENAME is coveted by video game speedrunners.

how do we like it? too simple or good?

part of me wanted to go into how, since it's porygon-z, it could maybe like, cause files to corrupt. maybe the speedrunner thing I can do for another pkmn, and I could just talk about the pros and cons of possible glitches but a faster and better computer experience with this one.

hmm maybe speedrunner stuff would be better with Rodash (Rotom/Rapidash)

[olive ermine]

There’s gonna be more porygon2 once they get spirited isn’t there?

Not to give izik conniptions more for Mage to have something to look forwards to

[thorn ingot]

Oh I like your version of this. Sometimes simple is good

-# I say your version because I submitted one for this yesterday btw.

[dusty hound]

Not to bug, are these entries good for submission or do they need some work

[rigid finch]

Reunitops (359.141b (although alt sprites a-d also reference zeta metroids))
POKENAME live in caves, crawling along the cavern walls. The gelatinous, core-like abdomen of a POKENAME is its only weak spot, which it tends to cover by facing a wall.

chat is this writing fire

[warm wolf]

Sylveon/flaffy #339.180
POKENAME is always concerned for others because of its ability to read emotions. When it sees a person in need of comfort, it will try to hug them; however, its wool ends up electrecuting them instead.

Or

Sylveon/flaffy #339.180 This Pokémon wraps its ribbonlike feelers around its foes to lower their guard before sending powerful shockwave through it to defeat them.

...

Some feedback would be appreciated.

[rigid finch]

a bit of a grammar fix here, "...When it sees a person in need of comfort, it will try to hug them; however, its wool's electric properties electrocute them instead."

other than that it's pretty funny lol

[warm wolf]

Thanks

The idea was that its pre evo would hurdle together to provide comfort so it thinks that it should do the same to humans but humans aren't really shockproof.

[hollow quartz]

this is how i learn that Shinx and Jynx share the same suffix for their body fusions

[rigid finch]

horribly unfortunate

[rich goblet]

Keep in mind that while entries can have an overarching theme, they also have to be standalone entries

I’ll talk more when I’m home, currently on a trip

[willow venture]

You can link entries but like

Don't explicitly link them

Ducky said it best, overarching theme is great way to link up

[rich goblet]

This needs a bit of reordering

POKENAME is always concerned for others because of its ability to read emotions. When it sees a person in need of comfort, it will try to hug them; however, its wool ends up electrocuting them instead.

Let me know if you have any questions

[willow venture]

Grammar question

You can say like

"POKENAME are a bunch of Pokemon living in dotdotdot. They like to dotdotdot."

You can use are with POKENAME right

[rich goblet]

Oh totally

[willow venture]

As long as the "they" pronoun (them being group) works

Oh okay awesome

[rich goblet]

POKENAME are adorable creatures as they enjoy dancing

etc etc

POKENAME are valiant and brave, always doing a jig whenever the fimble comes around

You get the idea

[hexed fog]

POKENAME studies kids in playgrounds before transforming into them in hopes of being brought home for a free meal. It emits a calming aura to keep parents around it none the wiser.

POKENAME observes parents at playgrounds before transforming into them to lure children into nearby forests. It emits a calming aura to ensure its targets remain none the wiser before it feasts.

[rich goblet]

That is a terrifying combo

Imagine if it evolves at the dinner table and kidnaps your parents

Oh wait

Wow LITERACY Psyduck, can you read

Still a funny entry

[hexed fog]

for zorua it wants a free meal

for zoroark YOURE the free meal

[hollow quartz]

"Talk to the hand" type of energy

[hexed fog]

Yall are making amazing progress on the sylveon heads

[willow venture]

Damn I gotta just work on Sylveon heads I guess

I can't get left in the dust

POKENAME's habitat is surprisingly diverse and hard to pin down, able to live in most places, though they seem to like hanging out in playgrounds and art supply stores. Their leader can be spotted by which one of them has the wider eyes and bow.

POKENAME likes to get into fights with other Pokémon over which of them is the cutest, fighting through dance battles or charming random trainers they see. Beauty salons and influencers have been using POKENAME as inspiration due to its cuteness.

I'll post these immediately then

[narrow cosmos]

Figures I was doing good progress then get called into work and Izik gorges himself on problem profiles again.

[willow venture]

I am not getting shown for this Sylveon is literally one of my faves

My Eevee/Scraggy project is gotta be delayed for now

[regal cedar]

Hmm? Is Daena down?

[final briar]

oh thanks! ❤️

[willow venture]

I still can access fusiondex

Might be on your end

[regal cedar]

Hmm, yeah, I get a 400 error.

Ohh, hmm. It seems the redirect from if.daena.me doesn't work anymore.

[thorn ingot]

Yeah seems like it doesn’t because my phone keeps trying to make me download the site

[final briar]

Sylking 339.119.png
With POKENAME's pastel colors and friendly face, most smaller fish pokemon don't heed it any warning. However, it is actually an apex predator of the rivers.

I could also say something about its elegant swimming and dancing, or bright colors to attract a mate, bc those both seem to be things Seaking and Sylveon do

Syldos 339.130.png
Its bright colors can only hide its vicious, battle-thirsty demeanor so much. Because of this, POKENAME must use its feelers to lure prey into a false sense of security.

gyarados and sylveon both love to battle and rampage so its like look but I'm soooo cute, I'm not dangerous at allllll

Sylhoot 339.163
Using its feelers, this pokemon becomes a sort of metronome, flicking back and forth at even intervals. Soulful musicians enjoy it as a partner.

based this on it tilting its head back and forth with hoothoot, and I feel like it would enjoy trainers with big emotions more with the feeler stuff

[sick yacht]

Just discovered I hit my first 100 dex entries today + that I have submitted the most dex entries for my favorite Pokémon. Feeling good

[warm wolf]

So if my entry on the mareep not standalone enough

Mareep/Sylveon #339.179
Herds of POKENAME are found huddled together. They do this to create static energy by rubbing their wools together to deter predetors or when one of their species is in need of comfort.

[willow venture]

I need somebody to look over this and tell me if it makes sense grammatically

POKENAME pulls up its baggy skin into a hoodie and guards against any attacks with its impervious frost-hardened body to defend its gang — a necessity, as beverage corporations have been forcibly trying to capture it for its freezing-cold body.```

I think this is the first time I tried writing something with an em dash lmao oh lord

em dash my begrudging beloved (fuck AI for making it basically one of its signature tells)

[rich goblet]

Herds of POKENAME can be found huddled together. They do this to create static energy by rubbing their wool against each other to deter predators or when a herd member is in need of comfort.

It's early for me but this should be free of errors, I'll fix it in the morning if there are any

[rich goblet]

My friend I think this is one whole sentence

You need to split it up

[willow venture]

I knew it lmao

That em dash really doesn't help I bet

POKENAME pulls up its baggy skin into a hoodie and guards against any attacks with its impervious frost-hardened body to defend its gang. This is due to beverage corporations trying to forcibly capture it for its freezing-cold body.

There we go @rich goblet

[rich goblet]

Hilarious entry

I like it

[willow venture]

I don't think it thinks its hilarious that its getting targeted by Coca Cola and Pepsi because of its nevermeltice body but hey

[rich goblet]

Keep it to beverage corporations, no brand names please

[willow venture]

I know that lol

[rich goblet]

lol

[willow venture]

But its funnier when you think of it that way

"Coke trying to capture another gang of Glaceggy and failing? Must be a day that ends with Y" type shit

[hollow quartz]

finally a solution to how dr pepper has the "taste" it notoriously has:

"Yeah we use a Pokemon to help make it"

[hexed fog]

We need more pokemon used as soda ingredients

[shy portal]

ingredience

[willow venture]

I think I found my groove now on what to focus on

Eeveelutions

If only Sylveon wasn't getting spammed entries!!!!!!

Or this is just a phase and I'm just gonna do whatever mons that strikes my fancy over and over again lol

[west tulip]

written from beedrill's dex entry, it says poisonous

i think

wait

depends of the entries lol

so i suppose both work

[west tulip]

bc they're a problem pokémon x)

[willow venture]

I know its annoying aagh

[hexed fog]

Gamefreak has issues

[willow venture]

What

Very random

[pale venture]

Izik retired? Damn

Thanks for the hard work izik

[willow venture]

I think that's an April Fools thing

Everybody also (mostly) got white name for the same reason I think

[pale venture]

Ah

I have been designated as the fool of April

[unkempt plinth]

Do not entries author need some colored role too ?

[rich goblet]

(Today is April Fool's Day, beware the prank)

[willow venture]

Only the very special (the ones writing a whole lot) ones it seems have it

[willow venture]

Well I can say this is my most productive day yet

Maybe mostly motivated by the fact I gotta get to as many Sylveon as possible (and I clearly missed the first dibs on some of them already lmao)

[rich goblet]

Help, I can’t see when I close my eyes ||April fools||

April Dexchallenge Day 1: Prankster (April Fools!)
Illuda #534.541
The fragrance that POKENAME produces attracts many Bug-type Pokémon. When humans smell it, many have reported suffering from intense bouts of dizziness.

[regal cedar]

Seems good to me.

[dusty hound]

April Dexchallenge Day 1: Prankster
Klefki/Tyrogue #371.236

POKENAME thrives on a challenge, seeking out anyone to battle, especially those carrying keys. If victorious, it will steal the keys from its opponent and adds them to its growing collection

[pale venture]

Gosh dang so many Sylveon are done already

I didn't even start yet

HUH?????

[warm wolf]

Whaaat?

Thats more than bulbasaur i think

If fusiondex down

[pale venture]

It's up for me

[warm wolf]

When I try to open it from the Google doc its down

[pale venture]

fusiondex.org ?

[warm wolf]

Yeah daena. Something doesn't work but when I open it directly it does.

[pale venture]

Weird, it's working for me

Must be an odd connection thing

[warm wolf]

Prolly

[pale venture]

Well since Sylveon has so many now, I guess I have an excuse to do whatever I like until izik calls for another problem pokemon

[warm wolf]

Have fun

Really thought that PIF hoenn soundtrack was a rickroll

[azure wagon]

trying to write my april dexchallenge prompts with pokemon i haven't written for yet

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1G4o03ialQnkVa5a1CVl81gwAof_s3x7G0BrZqjuXG9o/edit?usp=sharing

🌺 Hello writers! Here's the sheet for April's Dexchallenge if you are interesting in participating! 🌷

[steel aurora]

does hidden ability Prankster count?

[rich goblet]

@azure wagon Does hidden ability Prankster count? @steel aurora was asking

[steel aurora]

Thoughts? My submission for the day one of the challange:
POKENAME treasures the stones it carries, treating them as sacred objects meant for other Eevee. Professors claim that swallowing one would cause its body to fuse with the stone’s power.

[azure wagon]

Hidden abilities count!

[steel aurora]

Alr good to know

but i already found this super cute evolution

any feedback?

[abstract fog]

Just started entrying recently— here's my submission for day one of the challenge! ^w^

Instead of a second head, an odd glowing eye branches from POKENAME's singular head, which it uses to "see" gems and threats through walls. The eye can also channel some Psychic power, allowing POKENAME to levitate and reach food high in the caverns.

[azure wagon]

Idk if sacred would be the right word, maybe special instead?

Also the 2nd sentence is a little ambiguous...If humans swallow the stones do they get powers? That might be against the lore, id ask an unown for clarification on that.

[rich goblet]

You shouldn't refer to the stones as sacred, also more clarity on the second sentence would be nice

[steel aurora]

Alr

I'll get to cooking

[rich goblet]

You don't have to put quotes around the "see" otherwise it looks good

[abstract fog]

Oop! I left it from an earlier draft lol

[steel aurora]

POKENAME treasures the stones it carries, treating them as special items meant for other Eevee. Professors warn that if it were to swallow one, its body would fuse with the stone’s energy.

[rich goblet]

if an Eevee were to swallow one maybe?

[steel aurora]

POKENAME treasures the stones it carries, treating them as special items meant for other Eevee. Professors say that if an Eevee were to swallow one, its body would fuse with the stone’s energy.

like this?

[rich goblet]

Close enough, shoot it in a submission

[steel aurora]

That was also my submission for day one of the challenge

[rich goblet]

Oh for Meep's challenge you can submit as you go or you can save it for the end, there's no official rules and its just a nice challenge

[steel aurora]

Alr i'll submit as i go, meep is this a valid submission?

[rich goblet]

Mind if I make the following modification to your entry? Keep in mind that entries have to be able to stand alone. "Instead" implies another form that doesn't exist.

An odd glowing eye branches from POKENAME's singular head that it uses to see gems and threats through walls. The eye can also channel some Psychic power, allowing POKENAME to levitate and reach food high in the caverns.

[abstract fog]

Seems good to me! ^^

[azure wagon]

The only rules for the Dexchallenge is following the prompts for each day and the more lax rule of posting it in this channel to get any feedback before officially submitting the entry.

For me I usually submit as I go each day

I already got entries ready for the next week glad my lil hiatus let me recharge on the creative writing braincell

[final briar]

Nidopede #31.422
Despite its small size, POKENAME's poison is surprisingly potent. Its shell is thick and durable, and its tackles can easily uproot a tree.

[rich goblet]

"For such a small Pokemon" does not fit with the tone of the pokedex. You can say

"Despite its small size"
or
"Even though it is small"

to better align with the tone

Remember that the Pokedex is like an encyclopedia for pokemon, keep the language formal

Also any instance of Pokémon in entries must have the Capital P and the accented é

@final briar

[final briar]

got it, thank you!

That sounds better now, thank you.

Lomrok #496.410
POKENAME is both a clever predator and prankster. It lies in wait in the swamp water, disguising itself as a lily pad, before popping out to snatch fish pokemon or frighten trainers.

Ekpi #23.175
Scientists aren't certain why, but this pokemon decided it was best to stay within its egg. It is theorized that it is to appear less threatening to bird or bug Pokémon prey, or perhaps for added protection from predators.

Arans #24.23
Evolutionarily, POKENAME was better suited to not developing a hood, like an Arbok. Perhaps this was preferred because of the small holes it wriggles through in the roots and underbrush.

I've never done a self fusion or baby and evolved fusion, is that okay?

[rich goblet]

I need to get back to you on this or let someone else respond

[olive ermine]

From Dex perspective I have no clue. From IRL a stinger is Venomous.
let God sort it out

[dusty hound]

Porygon-Z/Hitmonchan #275.107

POKENAME moves unpredictably in battle, changing from slow to erratic abruptly. Its sporadic punches leaving glitch like trails, striking foes before they can react and disturbing nearby electronics

this one im a bit iffy on but who knows

[narrow cosmos]

Ah, looks like the dummies site is a bit busted for finding sprites without dex entries, must be because of the sprite pack update. Guess we’ll need to wait a bit while it gets adjusted.

[hoary totem]

POKENAME is found floating idly, spreading a dusty, white fog around itself. When inhaled in high amounts, the fog causes feelings of calm and apathy on both Pokémon and humans.
https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/381.255a/ entry for the Flour (reference sprite)

[rigid finch]

petition to be able to do funny entries for april fool's day

[proud cosmos]

yesssss

[regal cedar]

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/122.6/ This line in general has alternate sprites that need entries. My brain isn't Sparking(tm) tonight, but I'm sure someone'll come up with something!

[grizzled charm]

Do not let poryogre anywhere near your computer
-# (Thanks Izik :3)

[final briar]

Would anyone be able to give pointers on this one? I know it needs some kind of change
Probably the irl evolution thing isn't allowed

[empty oracle]

Pokename smoke is always, coming out of the back of its head, scientist don't know why, some of them thinks it's a cooling system due to lava constantly hitting it's fur

[final briar]

If you are taking constructive criticism
-POKENAME needs to be all capitalized for bot to be able to catch it, I think
-grammar stuff
So it would be like
"POKENAME's smoke is always billowing out of the back of its head. Scientists aren't sure why, but some think it could serve as a cooling system to combat lava constantly hitting its fur."

I changed a few words as well for more colorful language, but it's up to you!

[dusty hound]

say less

Hitmon Jr. #237.258

POKENAME mimics the fighting styles of others while spinning on its head. However, it often lose its balance and falling over, confusing both its opponents and itself.

[empty oracle]

Oh ty English isn't tm first language lmao

[final briar]

That's totally fine! No problem.

[hexed fog]

Thank you so much guys ;A; the sylveon heads are defeated

[rich goblet]

Damn these bots are getting aggressive

[hexed fog]

understatement

[rich goblet]

Most of them seem to be Mr. Beast fake crypto ads

God its annoying though, like its bottom barrel stuff

[hexed fog]

@proud cosmos This is your third, and final, warning.

[storm light]

does that mean another dex update?

[hexed fog]

I'll go through the remaining by Fri 🙂

[willow venture]

No the Sylveon is done???

I haven't even written a bunch still

[hexed fog]

Sylveon bodies are still there

Less worried on those

[willow venture]

Yeah alright man

[narrow cosmos]

I did less than I wanted to as well, people kept snatching them while I was at work or stuff.

[willow venture]

They snatched the heads while I sleep!!!!!

Actually unfair oh my god bleh

[narrow cosmos]

Strictly speaking you can still apply your own though, if you have ones you really wanted to write for.

(And, if not every single fusion has a custom sprite yet, there are future chances, not to mention alts without entries, given the problem sheets only tackle the "main" sprite of a fusion.)

[hexed fog]

Literally that

I aimed for the defaults as those are the ones the general public touches

[willow venture]

Whoops I might have double posted lmao

Please ignore that they're supposed to be on a different Pokemon (I'll post the correct location later)

[unkempt plinth]

Huh ? What do you mean ? I have updated entries after the sprite pack update

[narrow cosmos]

Earlier when I was using it, I would hit the button and it would say “a random selection of 0 sprites” and not show anything.

[unkempt plinth]

huh

What, how.

My entries data say, tons of available

oh, found it

[unkempt plinth]

Fixed

[narrow cosmos]

Thanks a bunch

[quaint raptor]

hihi! im unable to access the spritesheet site, is there an alternative link or something?

[storm light]

If you're trying to load it on mobile, it will crash constantly. You'll need to access it on desktop

[quaint raptor]

i am on desktop

[storm light]

And the link in #dex-entries-submissions (the blue HERE) isn't working? /gen

[quaint raptor]

opera gives me an http error 400 and firefox just says it cant connect

[quaint raptor]

nope, thats where i got the link from

[storm light]

I think you're only option for that is to wait a bit and try again later?

[quaint raptor]

okie doke

i found a work around, yippee!

[quaint raptor]

ah fudge, i did an oops on one of my submissions. do i resubmit an edit?

[warm wolf]

#custom-dex-errors
If it was approved, if not just wait

[abstract fog]

So today's entry has to include the word "spring"... Does that mean I can write a Spoink fusion and technically talk about a spring?

[azure wagon]

Correct, as long as the word "spring" is used you can use whatever definition or connected word (Springing or Springtime for example) you want.

April Dexchallenge Day 2: Spring 🌸

Slitle #445.317
As POKENAME is highly sensitive to external temperatures, it hibernates through the colder months. When spring arrives, it is seen helping plants grow with its nutrient-rich mucus.

[regal cedar]

Need some type/move/etc. things to focus on, hmm

[rich goblet]

Normal?

[steel aurora]

My submission for day 2:
POKENAME stores sweet sap inside its bulbous body, releasing it during spring to attract tiny Bug Pokémon. When threatened, it stiffens its stem and lashes out with surprising force.

[final bison]

🌷 April Dexchallenge Day 2: Spring

Venupius #3.556 ( by gasmaskblacky )
When spring arrives, the Pinap Berries growing on its body become extremely sweet and sugary. POKENAME soars majestically above the forests thanks to the enormous colorful petals it uses as wings.

[steel aurora]

Any feedback? should i post it?

[azure wagon]

Looks good to me!

[keen kestrel]

Maybe this is stupid feedback but i wonder if those are specifically meant to be Pinap Berries instead of pineapples? (Or at least, pinap berry inspired)
Not really feedback bc either is fine tbh haha

[final bison]

not stupid at all, actually is super nice - i removed those Pokémon Berries from my memory, guess i will adapt the description

Thanks

[storm light]

I'm not sure since Pinap berries have green leaves instead of brown, but at the same time i like that they might not be ripened yet while on the Pokemon

[final bison]

Oh well, even the ananas have green leaves soooo...xD let's go with the Berries!!

[crimson ledge]

@quick leaf Please make sure not to capitalize your username when you submit; we need your username exactly as it's registered on discord.

[dusty hound]

April Dexchallenge Day 2: Spring

Exegguchan #103.107

POKENAME's heads often argue over decisions. It resolves this by striking its spring loaded gloves with its mounted heads heads together, forcing them to agree before attacking

I might need help with the grammar with this one

[crimson ledge]

@quaint raptor Just a heads-up, you need to submit entries with your actual discord username, not your display name or a variation. Entries without a valid username get automatically denied.

[keen kestrel]

Wdym “revolves”?

Oh did you mean resolves

[dusty hound]

Oops

Nobody saw that

[abstract fog]

Here's what I picked in the end!

Dexpril Day 2 - "Spring"
Beepius #15.556

POKENAME are largely timid and tend to hide from people and Pokémon alike. They are most active in spring, helping Combee gather pollen and protecting them from Beedril.

[quick leaf]

Sorry ):

[storm light]

Did you know Riolu has Prankster as its Hidden Ability? Me neither!

Dexpril Day 1 - Prankster Ability
Ponyolu #77.384
In the wild, POKENAME learn fighting techniques from their parents, which are passed down to each generation. The ability to utelize their fire in their attacks is key to their survival.

[pale venture]

Riolu was the sole reason for Prankster to be reworked from gen 4 to gen 5 due to it making an impossible to beat strategy

It could create priority whirlwind/roar with prankster + copycat

[storm light]

Dexpril Day 2 - "Spring"
Manetales #530.38
The increase of thunderstorms in the springtime allow POKENAME packs to hunt while concealing their presence. They use lightning to corral grazing herds and pick an easy target, then strike.

[rich goblet]

It’s okay just don’t let it happen again

[delicate cargo]

April Dexchallenge day 2!
Double spring action

Bellink #182.539
POKENAME sleep for most of the year, waking from their hibernation during spring. Large groups of them gather in the sun, hopping in circles on their springy tails. The orbs on their heads absorb sunlight, collecting energy for their next slumber.

[abstract fog]

Absolute spring :3

[quaint raptor]

fudge, i mixed it up with a variation. sorry bout that. can i resubmit with my username?

[olive ermine]

Aron-Bibarel 390.383

Spring thing day yes (I’m tired shush)

POKENAME are capable of delivering a devastating blow with their spring loaded tail. To load the spring POKENAME use their bodyweight by standing on their back legs then lying down on their backs.

[olive ermine]

Hmmm. Hind legs. Less repetition. I need to remember to submit this

[rich goblet]

To load the spring, POKENAME lean back with their entire body until the spring clicks? I dunno

If you give me a moment I'll look into phrasing alternatives

To load the spring, POKENAME use their bodyweight by standing on their back legs before lying down flat.

@olive ermine Let me know if you still have issues with phrasing

[hexed fog]

**The 02APR2026 Dex Update has been sent. Please allow it some time to activate. You don't need to manually update it will happen automatically as you open the game. **

[hexed fog]

I'll get those pending errors in the next update

[hexed fog]

Piplup/Sylveon

POKENAME from northern regions typically gather around plateaus. It is said that presenting one with a piece of omelet will prompt it to release a soothing aura even in the coldest climates.

https://klipy.com/gifs/hmmm-cheshire

[storm light]

That looks familiar but I can't place it

[hexed fog]

It's a Bruce from neopets lol

[storm light]

Damn I havent seen neopets in a long time

I know I have a Faerie Aisha plush somewhere though

[hexed fog]

Nice

Filling in my dex will be a breeze with that tool

Snrasha killed it

It's so good

[thorn ingot]

Yeah you better not forget about the dex error you set up a remindme for that you still haven’t done

[hexed fog]

Oh fuck

Thats what that was about

[thorn ingot]

Well never seen that yanmega message before

[hexed fog]

Yea it's the anti-spam stuff

[narrow cosmos]

Literally never gonna catch up, I'm the Luigi of dex making, always second place.

[willow venture]

What yanmega messag

[hexed fog]

It deletes after a sec

[willow venture]

Also what tool do you mean izik

[hexed fog]

Sk you're literally catching up so fast lol

[hexed fog]

https://www.infinitedummies.fr/pages/entries_random.html

I'm 100000% ok with someone overtaking my number

I just want the dex filled

[willow venture]

Oh that

Also idk izik I think for people to overtake your number they have to basically write a different entry for mons that already have one

[hexed fog]

No we arent even close to that situation lol

Sk is only around 2k behind

[storm light]

https://tenor.com/view/spongebob-look-gary-there-i-am-that's-me-i'm-on-tv-on-tv-gif-5838881544199682423

[hexed fog]

It's def possible

I also dont have the free time that I once had

Adulthood sucks

[willow venture]

For some reason I remembered the top 10 having like entries in the 10k lmao

[thorn ingot]

Don’t have freetime
Writes 10 dex entries in 0.001 milliseconds

I don’t think time is an issue here

[willow venture]

And I'm pretty sure those entries are cranked out so easily

Where most of us probably take time to just crank one entry out

[hexed fog]

I only post them at once lol I dont write them that fast

I use Word to write entries then post em later

[thorn ingot]

https://tenor.com/view/doubt-press-x-la-noire-meme-x-button-gif-19259237

[hexed fog]

It's easy to come up with ideas imo

[willow venture]

Maybe you don't write that fast but I see you every single date in the Fusion sheet lmao

And at least you post more than 20 entries

It is still a really fast cranking out when compared to most of us

[narrow cosmos]

He does dumps of 20 to 50 a time, yeah.

[narrow cosmos]

Ain't that the truth.

[willow venture]

Of course he does

I got to be very productive right before April comes and that's still like

Maybe 40 entries but I had to put all my creative drive for that day on these entries

And the Sylveon head spam certainly broke my flow too cuz I need to be there and take some first dibs

@quaint raptor Btw by chance did you write up some pokedex entries this early morning

[thorn ingot]

Same. I have like 100+ fusions on my list that I want to write for but can’t because I need to do Porygon-Z and Necrozma before they go away

[willow venture]

Idk at least with those two there's still a ton missing in my purview

I'm pretty sure Sylveon heads are all filled at this point

[thorn ingot]

They are

We’re in bodies now

[willow venture]

https://tenor.com/view/ali187xr-gif-23052876

Like what other Pokemon can you see in the IFDex who's got all first 151 fusions filled up entry-wise lmao

[thorn ingot]

That’s why I did mine early before we got to them

[willow venture]

Insane shit

[narrow cosmos]

Hey, if you use that link Izik mentioned you can still find Sylveons that aren't done, alts is always an option. It even lets you narrow it down to just heads.

[quaint raptor]

i did abt 18 hours ago, abt to jump on and fix them up with my discord username instead

[willow venture]

Awesome yeah just checking

[quaint raptor]

resubmissions complete

altho i now realise i edited the wrong fusion. pls let me kno if 182.94 still needs work

(still happy with 94.182 atm)

also are there any other custom sprites that are high priority for a dex entry?

[narrow cosmos]

The Sylveon bodies are the current ones that are high priority, circa the Problem Pokemon tab on the doc.

[quaint raptor]

okie dokie

is there anything in particular i should be aaware of when writing for these? i've read thru the pokepages a couple times but there doesnt seem to be anything super specific for sylveon that i can find yet

[willow venture]

There isn't

Other than you cannot explicitly mention trans/gender stuff for Pokemon to go through with in general (that includes Sylveon)

[quaint raptor]

gotcha

also there appears to be a custom dex entry for abveon in the FusionDex; if thats the case should i ignore and move on?

[willow venture]

Nothing stops you from writing your own entry on any Pokemon

Even if they already had one

[quaint raptor]

okie doke

[narrow cosmos]

And there's tons of alts for a lot of fusion, and those can have their own entries too.

[quaint raptor]

just dont wanna tread on any toes for other writers

[olive ermine]

The pokepages are only a part of the lore book. We need to abide by the rest of the lore book also

Oh and if there’s more than one entry I have no idea what it looks like in game but the fusion Dex page just lists them both

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/412.233/

[willow venture]

It looks bad lmao

I haven't played in awhile but last time when you check a Pokemon sprite's dex entry what will happen is

The entries gets mushed together

For instance playing Sylveon/Noivern you might notice in the IFDex there's three entries

What will happen is you check it and on Page 1 it'll show Entry 1 on Page 1, but there's a chance if you go to Page 2 it'll instead continue to the second page of Entry 2 or 3, and if only one entry is longer than the rest there will just be a third page because Entry 3 is long even though Entry 1 and 2 is short, for instance

[pale venture]

There is a sprite I've been unable to write for, today is the day I try to

[willow venture]

What sprite it is

I'll try a take on it as well

[pale venture]

Each sprite only needs one, it's fine It's just edgy and I'm not used to writing for edgy sprites, and I like this one

Muleon #89.324
POKENAME are found living in polar environments, slowly spreading their poisonous ooze to hunt for fish Pokémon. The exposed bones of POKENAME are deceptively sharp, which they only use on anything that threatens either their pride or their colony.

I think I did ok tho

Btw are entries automatically updated on the excel sheet? If not, is there a way to tell which Sylveon hasn't been submited for yet?

[kind vault]

Absolute cinema

Im doing a only cool entry run (very stupid ik) and i kow what to fuse empoleon with!

[hexed fog]

(Except if the author is the spriter)

[pale venture]

tyty

I know that sprites like this need edgier themes, I just never know where the line is

Like I want it to fit the sprite, but at the same time I wanna make it so someone would still realistically catch and use it

[steel aurora]

My submission for day 3 of the Dexchallenge:
POKENAME absorbs sunlight through its mineral body, causing its rocky limbs to shed and reform into denser, more resilient armor. With each cycle, it grows stronger, its evolving shell reflecting the intensity of the sun it has endured.

[muted sable]

The flesh that hates, but a decomposing bird

[steel aurora]

Any feedback?

[delicate cargo]

April Dexchallenge day 3!

Kecveon #290.339
POKENAME's bodies change color based on their emotions. Their ribbon-like feelers change color based on the emotions of those they touch, allowing these Pokémon to be incredibly in tune with their Trainers.

[hexed fog]

Yiiiiis

[willow venture]

Oooooo lemme try a take on this

[pale venture]

I already submitted but sure

[willow venture]

Wait what does this mean

[pale venture]

The spriter has a right to write for their own sprite if they want to

[willow venture]

If a spriter made an entry on their own Mon it's a no go in that moment?

[pale venture]

Above anyone else

[willow venture]

Yeah but what does that mean to the others

Who wants to write an entry on it

[pale venture]

If they don't have a dex entry, it's safe to say they don't want to do that

Spriters that want to do that tend to submit the dex entry pretty soon after the sprite is made

[willow venture]

I think I'm being thrown for a loop

What does izik mean when he responded to my "nothing stops you from writing entries on any mon" and I think you took my question differently

[pale venture]

@hexed fog

[hexed fog]

If the spriter makes or has an entry for their own sprite it automatically disqualifies any other entry

[willow venture]

Ah yeah that's what I thought lol

NPShi just confused me I thought I got it wrong or smth

[azure wagon]

Day 3: 🟩 Sprite

Scepnoone #278.505
POKENAME's sharp claws are adapted for gripping roots and taking down prey swiftly. It makes its nest in the dense undergrowth of jungles.

[final briar]

Where is the April dex challenge link? :0

[azure wagon]

@final briar right here!

[final briar]

I will do some late entries then hehe

Day 1: Prankster
#57.421a Primeeye
POKENAME's fists are studded with precious gems it has found in deep cave systems. It is strong enough to crumble massive geodes into tiny pieces, which it then hoards or nibbles on.

Day 2: "Spring"
Bunpod 403.474
POKENAME resides by forest lakeshores or riversides. It is fairly sedentary but springs away with surprising agility when it senses danger.

Day 3: Green
Celegrowth 251.266
POKENAME is cocooned with a thick swath of vines, which it uses for protection. These vines can grow over a foot a day, so constant pruning is needed.

[hollow nimbus]

Given that PIF doesn't have spirits to give blessings, I suggest finding a different way to word the opening

[hollow nimbus]

The second sentence shouldn't have a comma

[dusty hound]

Will I pick another Hitmon fusion for today’s April dex challenge

[eternal notch]

Hello, I'm attempting to make some of my first entries and I am using the challenge to do so. Please let me know if there are any issues.
Day 1 - Prankster
Clampcott 562.360
POKENAME like to pull pranks by spreading bubbles inside peoples houses, leaving the place soaking wet. Some people actively encourage this behaviour in dirty houses.

Day 2 - "Spring"
Lunium 477.154
POKENAME are commonly spotted in gardens especially, in the springtime, using their calming fragrance to draw in pests. It is a sign of a good gardener if a POKENAME frequents their abode.

Day 3 - Green
Dustwak 510.105
The spores POKENAME spread are not produced by POKENAME but are actually a concoction made from the by-products of various Poison and Bug-type Pokémon. Once their young grow up, they are also taught the recipe.

[rich goblet]

comma after especially

[rich goblet]

Concoction is the correct spelling

Also Pokémon needs the accented é

[timid sky]

POKENAME uses magnetism to cause large rocks to slam into it so that it can toughen up its body. This training eventually makes POKENAME so resilient that even sheets of metal will shatter if rammed into its body.

[eternal notch]

thank you!

[rich goblet]

Oh wait, forgot that Bug-type has type lowercased, whoops

Since it is a descriptor and whatnot

[hexed fog]

I stg i mess this up so often

It's my everest

[rich goblet]

Felt

[storm light]

Checking daena's site every so often to check if it updated so I can post proof of my 500 entries

[dusty hound]

Day 3: Im So Green
Spinatop #167.237
POKENAME spins on its stinger to rapider weave fine but durable threads, setting up an inescapable trap. It then remains motionless, waiting for prey to become stuck in its webs before striking with a sudden devasting attack with its stinger

[final briar]

yeah I thought that one was iffy. I just remembered in the movie Celebi is called the spirit of the forest and can help things grow. I can fix

[final briar]

I removed it completely and added a little; I feel better about it now. Thoughts?

[timid sky]

I wish Bronzor was in this game so I could submit a fusion of that for the green category

[vast urchin]

I think it is

[keen kestrel]

It’s not

[vast urchin]

Oh

[unkempt plinth]

Just for than you know, you can ping a dex manager for your role, now. Infinite dummies website will not more depend on the game entries update, but will follow Fusiondex of Daena (using the google sheet), so the update will be more consistent (dependly of the dex manager)

[storm light]

👀

@hexed fog King me?

[pseudo ember]

POKENAME lives a dual life watching each other fight, one in day one in dark sometimes feeling unstable when one takes over even when not in use. Even one taking slight control if they awaken during times. Always hanging with 2 other mon's and fighting the impure together

[storm light]

which doublade fusion is this for?

[pseudo ember]

Doublade-porygon Z

It’s a deltarune ref

idk how to add one i just made it

[storm light]

Unfortunately, as it doesn't have a custom sprite ingame yet, it doesn't qualify for a dex entry https://www.fusiondex.org/doublade+porygon-z/

[crimson ledge]

This isn't the right place; this channel's for talking about writing Pokedex entries specifically. If you want to start making sprites, you should start by reading #spriting-guidelines, which explains the guidelines and submission process.

[pseudo ember]

thx

Sorry

[rich goblet]

You're fine, this server is pretty big so it has a lot of moving parts

[sick yacht]

I believe that once/if it is uploaded into the game, if you upload a dex entry it will be prioritized as possible dex entry?

[storm light]

Spriters' entries will always be prioritized, yes

[sick yacht]

Cool! Just wanted to make sure I understood! 😊

Finally getting a break from college, time to go home and write more entries as a reward 🥳

[upper loom]

Added role Assistant Researcher (500+ dex entries) to chibitales

tyty!

[hollow vapor]

500 entries is insane

I think I’ll make some at some point

[storm light]

Hey, that was what I did in almost a year, Infinex did like a thousand in their first couple of months

Don't overwhelm yourself with them though, go at your own pace

[hollow vapor]

Yeah yeah ofc
Besides I’m busy irl so I won’t be able to get to them for a bit

[storm light]

But now I look like i actually know what I'm talking about (<- she doesn't)

[short jasper]

Can I have that too? I have 656 entries

[pale venture]

Congrats Chibi Proud of ya

500 is a lot of entries

[thorn ingot]

You need to ping izik, not the bot, to let him know that

[short jasper]

Ah ok

@hexed fog I have 656 accepted entries, can I plz get the Assistant Researcher role

[hexed fog]

Putting this here just so theres receipts lol

[upper loom]

Added role Assistant Researcher (500+ dex entries) to hophoppip

Dexpril Day 3: Green
Farxen #83.483a

Burning far more quickly than the wooden branches Braixen wield, POKENAME are often seen nibbling on their twigs, for their mouths secret an inflammable liquid. They also use this liquid to groom their feathers and avoid burning them by accident.

I had to stop myself from entrying three other (non-green) sprites first because it's almost midnight here lol "^-^

[storm light]

Secret to Secrete, though i wonder if it migh tbe better to restructure th efirst sentence since it reads a little weirdly to me

Something like Twigs/Leeks wielded by POKENAME burn far more quickly than those wielded by Braixen, for their mouths secrete an inflammable liquid as they chew on them.

[abstract fog]

Nono, that's not what I was going for! Wood burns slowly, while twigs burn faster.
English isn't my first language, the idea is that they use that substance so it takes longer to burn out and lasts for longer.

[storm light]

See here's the thing, inflammable means the same thing as flammable, that it catches and burns easily. English sucks

[abstract fog]

._.

I seee

[storm light]

I think what you're looking for is Nonflammable

but instead that means it can't easily be set on fire

[abstract fog]

Heat-resistant?

[storm light]

Instead of heat, I think fire-resistant works fine

So then it would be like thisTwigs wielded by POKENAME burn far longer than those wielded by Braixen, for their mouths secrete a fire-resistant liquid as they chew on them.

Actually idk if resistant works

[abstract fog]

I'm not quite sure about it, the idea is they use it to help it last longer because it normally doesn't last as long

Because wood does burn slowly irl, while a twig probably wouldn't last for long

[storm light]

Yes, that's why i mentioned it burns for longer than Braixen does. Quicker means it burns out a lot faster

[abstract fog]

Mmm, I suppose? It just feels kinda weird like this, they get a really random advantage over regular Braixen instead of just patching up a backdraw

My original entry highlighted that a little better— their twigs burn out more quickly than Braixen's wooden branches, so they use that thingy to help it last for longer

[storm light]

Could instead say they last longer

Twigs wielded by POKENAME last far longer than those wielded by Braixen, for their mouths secrete a liquid that helps keep the twig from burning too quickly as they chew on them.

wdyt?

[abstract fog]

Doesn't that kinda make it seem like chewing makes the twig burn tho?

[storm light]

They chew on the stick to put the liquid on it, then set it ablaze, at least that's how it makes sense in my head

[abstract fog]

How about:

Burning out a lot faster than the wooden branches Braixen wield, POKENAME are often seen nibbling on their twigs, for their mouths secrete a protective liquid. They also use this substance to groom their feathers and avoid burning them by accident.

[storm light]

Might just be a matter of preference at this point

[abstract fog]

Perhaps XD

[abstract fog]

In that case, I like this one a lil' better

I feel it's a bit clearer

[hexed fog]

Slammed out a bunch of entries for my dex completion

I feel so accomplished

[narrow cosmos]

[narrow cosmos]

POKENAME can freeze beings solid with just a touch of its ribbons. Before they freeze completely, a euphoric sensation flows through the victim, ensuring the frozen statues are stuck in an expression of bliss.

Slightly proud of this one just for thinking up something creatively morbid.

Ah, fooey. Just noticed that I accidentally sent an entry to the wrong filename. I resubmitted the correct one, but my entry for 285.339.png needs to be denied, it's not the fusion I was aiming for off the problem page.

[crimson ledge]

I like it. I'm not sure if you knew this already or are just pulling on Sylveon's entries, but hypothermia can actually cause euphoria.

[willow venture]

Sylveons that basically got your ass but making sure you're all happy is always cool

[willow venture]

I keep trying to write entries but I end up getting wrapped up in Civ 6 gaming lmao

[steel aurora]

Feedback? My submission for day 4 of the Dexchallenge:
POKENAME darts through the sky during storms, feeding on bursts of lightning. It carefully stores this energy within its egg, ensuring the creature inside develops immense power before hatching.

[hexed fog]

I want to see more pokemon in soothing food or drinks

[crimson ledge]

@final bison It looks like you submitted two different entries for the same sprite back-to-back. Given that the second one doesn't fit the sprite, I'm guessing that one's got the incorrect number. You need to be very careful about getting your numbers right because normally we'd just assume the second one is meant as a replacement and automatically deny the first one. Can you tell me what sprite the second one is actually intended for?

[final bison]

Hello there! Yes, I actually entered the wrong entry number for the second description thank you so much for writing to me about it. The file number of the fusion I wrote the entry for is actually the following: 303.148.png (Anorith/Dragonair). Once again, sorry for the inconvenience. I reported this problem in the custom-dex-errors thread as soon as I noticed it (since the last time I reported in this section an error for an entry I had submitted, I was told to post there), but if it wasn't the correct procedure to follow I apologize for that too, in general I'll try my best to be more careful next time.

[crimson ledge]

Oh, no, that's the right thing to do - not checking there first was my bad. Normally corrections posted there get added to the sheet pretty quick. Thank you.

[final bison]

Oh, thank you you're always do a lot

[regal cedar]

Hi, I'm going to @ an <@&1210701164426039366> due to an explanation for rejection on "143.150.png", which says it should have more info on the Snorlax half.

One of Snorlax's abilities is Immunity, and multiple entries say how its stomach dissolves poisons, it can eat moldy foods just fine. So when I write how it's resistant to diseases and viruses, this is absolutely in reference to that.

[hexed fog]

may have been an oversight 🙂 no worries

[rich goblet]

Ooooooh, I didn't put two and two together, I even checked the wiki and didn't see the connection

Now I see it

Let me just... fix that

[narrow cosmos]

Oh no, Izik's awake, 50% of the undone dex entries are about to be filled.

[jagged ledge]

You say that like it's a bad thing

[narrow cosmos]

Only if you're like me and furiously competing to get five seconds in the number one spot before Izik takes it again.

[hexed fog]

I'm just working on my pokedex

[narrow cosmos]

I'm just fooling around as always anyway. Just seeing what I can cook up in downtime before work.

Yeah I was talking to you while I was going it, and posted it here

I had to ruminate on it a little

April Dex Challenge Day 4: Happiny Line
Happisir 259.127
This bug Pokèmon constantly guards a large white stone in its pincers, thinking it to be an egg. If it allows a trainer to touch the stone, it has an extreme bond of trust with them.

[delicate cargo]

April Dexchallenge day 4
Elesey #239.242
POKENAME carry batteries in their pouches, keeping them charged using the electricity they produce by spinning their arms. These Pokémon love to help people, presenting these batteries to those who need them.

[regal cedar]

Phew! Thank you. I'll admit, I was worried.

There's a lot of 'they', 'their', and 'thems' when both POKENAME and the batteries are important, but it's clear to me personally what's being referred to in each instance.
Content of the entry seems fine.

Oh my god. These spam bots are annoying.

[finite salmon]

I have an idea for a short and sweet dex entry, but I forget what all fusions have Missingno. inspired sprites

After a little checking, I think a porygon-z self fusion is what I was thinking of

[rich goblet]

Typically you find a sprite before you decide what to write

[finite salmon]

I knew the sprite existed. I just couldn't remember what it was made from

[rich goblet]

If you still have the save you can check

[finite salmon]

I do not

[rich goblet]

This is why I always keep my saves

[finite salmon]

But I'm pretty sure this is still a valid sprite for the fusion in question

[rich goblet]

check fusiondex

https://www.fusiondex.org/

[finite salmon]

Indeed it is. Now preparing to make an error 404 joke

[rich goblet]

Just remember to follow the guidelines laid out in the pinned messages, and read the lorebook before submitting an entry

Also remember to spellcheck and proofread before submitting

[finite salmon]

I know. Gonna need a bit to get it up to those standards

[storm light]

@wanton ember
Matung #67.108
POKENAME's tongue easily lifts objects weighing over 100lbs. In battle, it attacks frequently with its tongue and tail, but will use its muscle-packed arms as a last resort if needed.

If POKENAME ever comes across an egg in the wild, they will attempt to look after it and will use their fire to warm it up. This can cause issues when the eggs protective parent only left for a few seconds.

There's a certain tone that the Unowns want the entries to be in. Gag entries are fun, but don't hit that tone that they want to keep

[rich goblet]

FAQ 17+19 #dex-entries-discussion message

You have to describe a Pokemon in each entry

[finite salmon]

Fair fair. I'll see if I can come up with something else

[rich goblet]

We get the enthusiasm but there are guidelines that we follow to avoid contradicting lore

[viscid belfry]

Could an entry therefore say "POKENAME is currently imperceptible." Or some such?

[hexed fog]

that wouldnt make sense

[storm light]

How would a Trainer be able to use it effectively in battle if they coultn see the Pokemon?

[hexed fog]

because to get it, we are perceiving it lol

[rich goblet]

To the naked eye maybe, but usually not

Like unless you start to give 3D glasses out we should be able to see it

[viscid belfry]

We see a bunch of pixels that seem random. Are we sure that's what it actually looks like?
I'm trying to make a case for an alteration to the joke entry

[finite salmon]

It would in theory be possible for human eyes to see something, but not technology

[rich goblet]

A lot of joke entries focus on subtle nods rather than direct references. This is to maintain the lore of the Pokemon Universe

[storm light]

You can still fit a gag into it, it just has to fit in. Something like this

[finite salmon]

Worst-case scenario, though, I can always help inspire people who are more familiar with the tone in question

[storm light]

Maybe you can mention that viewing that fusion over a PC causes that PC to slow and stutter as if it's having trouble showing the Pokemon

[finite salmon]

Possibly show the pokedex attempting to work through such an issue?

[storm light]

Mhm, something like that. It's not entirely imperceptible via devices, but it definitely gives them trouble

[viscid belfry]

True, but then we see it's form through a non-screen lens during a battle

Not even the Silph Scope helps one determine it's true form

[storm light]

Something like
POKENAME cause devices they are seen through to slow and stutter as if having trouble processing their image.

These are our two officially supported Fusion Calculators. Please remember that Tech Support cannot help with any issues on the fusion calculators! If you are having issues or have questions, go to Infinite Dex Thread or Fusiondex Thread depending on which site you are using!

https://infinitefusiondex.com/: Good for looking at stats, locations, movesets, and type matchups, as well as looking at the inverse fusions side-by-side.

https://www.fusiondex.org/: Good for looking at sprites and fusion names. Also includes stats, but no comparisons.

[storm light]

These sites are good for looking at fusions and getting the numbers for them!

[hexed fog]

and this

[severe scroll]

Thank you! Can I get your opinion on the entry?

[storm light]

fusiondex even has a little icon to tell you if the sprite has an entry already! Just because it does though doesn't mean it can't have more than one unless it's an entry from the spriter. Their entries are prioritized

[viscid belfry]

Yea, I have no spriting software but would love to send some suggestions for Pokemon I use (Namely for unconventional Mamoswine fusions, such as my Gourgeist/Mamoswine)
And once it hits, i've got ideas for Dex Entries

[storm light]

Did i miss where you posted it?

[crimson ledge]

You really don't need specialized spriting software if you want to give it a try. I sprited using Paint.NET, which is free, for a long time.

[severe scroll]

I think i submitted it correctly?

Thank you for your help

[hollow nimbus]

I use Photopea, which is browser-based, for spriting

[thorn ingot]

piskel is also another free site you can create sprites on as well

[storm light]

For future reference, it's a good idea to post your entries here before submitting so we can make sure they're good to go, but i'll check it

[severe scroll]

Ah! Mb

[hollow nimbus]

-# Boooooo
-# Piskel

[severe scroll]

Aseprite is also good

[crimson ledge]

Good, but not free.

[hollow nimbus]

Aesprite falls under the category of "have spriting software"

[hexed fog]

@viscid belfry please dont caps your username on entries 😄

and be sure you use your username

Ah, my laptop is toasty warm; it must have finished loading the dex sheet

the below is your username

[viscid belfry]

Ah, gotcha

[storm light]

POKENAME are tolerant Pokémon who help transport more aggressive passengers across large bodies of water. The two heads are known to fight over proper directions.

I like how it looks tbh. Gets a thumbs up from me, especially since I can see them bumping the passengers on the head to chill out during the ride if they get too rowdy.

[severe scroll]

I know, right?! The pokemon is the 'Transport Hostile Pokemon' which is where the thought of the entry came from.

[storm light]

Could say "oddly tolerant" too just to poke at zweilous lol

[hollow nimbus]

I would suggest removing more and just say transport aggressive passengers

[severe scroll]

Agree

[storm light]

This is Kittens entry, just posted it on here so I could give some better feedback

[hollow nimbus]

I also suggest replacing proper directions with the proper direction

[severe scroll]

Thank you for the feedback!

[storm light]

I just copied it from the spreadsheet

ah, well

[severe scroll]

I don't mind resubmitting it. : )

[hollow nimbus]

Not everyone seems to know this, but there's a difference between pre-submitted and post-submitted changes

[rich goblet]

Nah its such a small change let me just--

[storm light]

honestly? might be better to throw it in #custom-dex-errors

[hollow nimbus]

If you haven't submitted it, we'll give you advice on how to improve the wording to show your intent more masterfully

[severe scroll]

Thank you! I will do that in the future

[hollow nimbus]

If it's already been submitted, we only change what's needed for the sentence to be grammatically correct and make sense

[severe scroll]

This is my first one

[storm light]

Welcome to dex writing!

[severe scroll]

[hollow nimbus]

So if your entry is awkward but correct, we're not making it better than what you wrote

[viscid belfry]

That channel was invisible to me- I now have access to it. I have Subverted the barriers! HAHA

[hollow nimbus]

You always had access
You just needed to look in id:customize or id:browse

[storm light]

Also if your entry does need middle-of-the-road changes, Unowns will usually try to keep the original intent of your entry

[viscid belfry]

Thought I was a Hackerman. Lame, but cool ig

[hollow nimbus]

If it makes no sense and we can't fix it without changing your intents too much, that usually leads to a denial
A denial just means "try again and submit a new one"

[rich goblet]

I've split one sentence into two a few times already, so we really do try to keep entries when they come in

[hollow nimbus]

In those cases, it's easiest for us to say "not this time" and wait for your new version rather than have a complicated back-and-forth between us, who have sheet perms, and the writer

[severe scroll]

I love how PIF has its own lore! Reading that was so interesting

[finite salmon]

Would I still be allowed to frame this as an error message?

[rich goblet]

You can say that a fusion causes errors or creates errors, but you cannot say that it is an error

The thing you're looking at is a Pokemon

Even if it doesn't look like one

https://www.fusiondex.org/slugma+porygon/

Including whatever this is

[finite salmon]

Yeah. It's still a Pokémon. Just trying to show the pokedex having trouble processing it
