April Dex Challenge Day 9 - Baby Pokemon
https://www.fusiondex.org/chingling+butterfree/
As these Pokémon fly, their wings produce light jingling noises similar to jingle bells. It seeks sources of honey, using a disorienting cry to stun those that get in their way.

April Dex Challenge Day 10 - "Grow"
https://www.fusiondex.org/shroomish+garbodor/
POKENAME's body is made of dense organic material and mushrooms. They continually seek out sources of rotting material to absorb, converting the mass into energy. Different varieties of mushrooms grow on their body depending on where they live.

Trying to do most of these using Pokemon i havent written for before

[storm light]

April Dex Challenge Day 11 - Rainy Castform
https://www.fusiondex.org/cleffa+castform-rainy-form/
POKENAME absorbs humidity in the surrounding air, adding the moisture to its shimmering cloud. It allows glittering drops to fall from the cloud when too much is absorbed. Groups of these Pokémon gather to dance when shooting stars fill the sky.

April Dex Challenge Day 12 - Pom-Pom Oricorio
https://www.fusiondex.org/oricorio-pom-pom-style+lapras/
Pods of POKENAME sing and cheer to each other to solidify social bonds. Their fluffy down easily collects static, which in turn allows POKENAME to shock potential predators and escape.

[hexed fog]

Id love to hear about what Taillow use to decorate their nests

[rich goblet]

We need more migrating Taillow too

[delicate cargo]

April Dexchallenge Day 15! 🐸
Metaninja #293.487
POKENAME compress the liquid metal around their necks into shurikens, which they throw at their foes. These Pokémon have four brains, allowing them to calculate their opponent's next move in an instant.

[hexed fog]

Big Feelings List is up

[hollow quartz]

Ironically as I was already lloking at some Ralts fusions

[narrow cosmos]

Might as well dig in, Infinitedummies seems to be busted on my browser right now so I have less capability of going through random un-dex'd entries.

[hexed fog]

lol

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/eevee+chikorita/

Decided to fuse my Chikorita with the Eevee I got from Celadon City and noticed it didn't have a Pokedex entry

Any feedback?

How's this?

[narrow cosmos]

Seems like a pretty solid entry to me!

You could also replace "This Pokemon" with POKENAME if you wanna name-drop the fusion in its dex. Either works.

[rancid sun]

Yeah but it's only one sentence long

[narrow cosmos]

Two sentence isn't a strict necessity, so you could still get away with it. You could also do something like...

"POKENAME is a popular housepet due to its small size and cute appearance. Its popularity is further boosted by its ability to emit pleasant, calming smells from its leaves."

(Provided that fits the character limit.)

[rich goblet]

That is an outdated misconception I helped propogate, sorry

[rancid sun]

I know, but I like my entries having two sentences.

[narrow cosmos]

Uh-oh, I took too long a break on the Ralts, here comes Izik to smash out the rest in ten seconds.

[rancid sun]

ignoring my Wigglyswine entry

[hollow quartz]

Me when my ADHD habits kicked in and I stared at my phone for like 15 minutes or so

thus why I am doing some Poochyena entries now

[narrow cosmos]

I'm personally killing some time until the latest update for the Gundam mobile game hits tonight to see how much of that I can go through.

[rancid sun]

If you want to remove the second sentence when putting it in, by all means do so

[rich goblet]

1. House pet, Pokémon can be pets so it would still work

2. If you want to, you could say something about windowsills, like warm sunny windowsills. Cats love that spot, so why not this Pokémon

[rancid sun]

I was thinking windowsills too!

[rich goblet]

Oh its already submitted

[rancid sun]

It's OK you can add that in

[rich goblet]

Do you mind if I make an edit for that?

Cool cool

[rancid sun]

ABsolutely not, go right ahead/gen

[hexed fog]

Chameleon list is up

nm everything is freaking out

nothing is up

[hollow quartz]

back to the kecleon mines i go, it seems

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/vibrava+kecleon/

Snagged this one!

[hexed fog]

it's so broken omg

Kecleon are fun for changing colors

[hollow quartz]

the biggest break i see rn is just the multiple boxes being highlighted with green

[narrow cosmos]

Alright, time to break, I keep slamming down entries on the same fusions as Infinex, our minds are too in sync.

POKENAME floats around the darkness at a very slow rate, seemingly oblivious to the world around it. The fungus in its hollow skull twitches in the direction of perceived life, shooting puffs of spores on instinct.

Sweet dreams.

[willow venture]

Chameleon means Kecleon right

[hollow quartz]

Yes

[rancid sun]

Did one with the Vibrava fusion earlier

[thorn ingot]

Cha(r)meleon

[rancid sun]

I think I'll do more with Hoenn Pokemon specifically to help with the upcoming Hoenn update

I have been informed it's an entirely new gane

[rich goblet]

It isn’t exactly a secret

[hoary totem]

Pif hoenn conspiracy

[storm light]

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/412.412a/
This variant of POKENAME is extremely miniscule, making it difficult to study properly. It is thought to subsist on microscopic organisms. Despite its size, it is able to cause short-circuits in some devices.

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/412.412b/
Although smaller than normal Joltik, POKENAME's electrical output is near-doubled. It waits on the tips of grass blades for something to walk by, attaching to it and absorbing any built-up static electricity.

April Dex Challenge Day 13 - Flower
https://www.fusiondex.org/roserade+reshiram/
When enraged, POKENAME sets its roses ablaze in brilliant fire, which intensifies the sweet smell produced by the flowers. POKENAME are able to regrow these flowers within a few weeks.

gotta say the sprite for roseram looks so pissed

[willow venture]

"I didn't ask for pickles in my rose burger..."

[azure wagon]

April Dexchallenge Day 15: Frog Friend 🐸

Milkie #241.485
The delicious, frothy milk that POKENAME produces is highly sought after by cafés worldwide. In the wild, it uses this milk to pacify and distract predators as it flees to safety.

Day 16: "Tea" 🍵
Ivyleaf #2.512
POKENAME lives high in forest trees, spending its time observing those down below. The petals and leaves that grow on POKENAME can be brewed into a soothing tea.

[rancid sun]

What does anyone else here think about this?

[rich goblet]

I think it would be too confusing for new players, at least contacting the discord we can make sure that entries are up to standard

[rancid sun]

We could at least make it an option

[rich goblet]

It's a frog decision I think, not sure how we'd implement it

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/flygon+scrafty/

I haven't posted it yet

[strong flame]

I'm pronouncing that as 'flighty'.

[rich goblet]

I think Djoing was talking about the name of the fusion, not your entry

[rancid sun]

Oh 🤦

[rich goblet]

Would you like me to remove that part?

[rancid sun]

If you think it'd fit better without

[rich goblet]

Despite its apathetic-looking appearance, POKENAME cares deeply about its trainer and teammates. Even a wild POKENAME takes care of its packmates. Its flapping wings sound like funk music.

@rancid sun Is this an acceptable change? I want to remain true to your intent as best as I can

[rancid sun]

I was referring to wild Flyty, but yes, this fits better

[rich goblet]

Cool cool

https://www.fusiondex.org/authors/lydiaprower8/

@rancid sun I feel obligated to let you know about a feature fusiondex has

You can see all of your entries here! 😄

Little baby entries

[rancid sun]

I know!

I've seen them! X3

https://www.fusiondex.org/delibird+togekiss/ Made a start

[rich goblet]

holiday joy is a big vague, maybe you can say "seen during the holidays spreading joy"

[rancid sun]

Fixed that

[proud cosmos]

A POKENAME is capable of storing enough electricity to power a city, however, it has trouble containing it. When startled, POKENAME can release large jolts of energy, enough to stun small children.

[rancid sun]

Any feedback?

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/weavile+breloom/

[rich goblet]

I get the general vibe, go ahead and post it. I'll fix it up tomorrow or so

[severe scroll]

Hey Dex Writers!

[hexed fog]

The Positivity List is up

[hollow quartz]

Plusle?

[thorn ingot]

Yeah I think calling it the Phillips Head list would’ve been more descriptive

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/445.219/

[delicate cargo]

April Dexchallenge Day 16 ☕️
Beepuff #15.492
POKENAME's bodies are incredibly light, allowing them to fly surprisingly quickly. The honey they secrete is considered a delicacy in many regions, often added to teas for its uniquely rich and sweet flavor.

[hexed fog]

@vale schooner please post your entries here for a bit to review them before submitting in the future. This way you can understand what we are looking for in an entry

[rich goblet]

This is a bit short for what an entry needs to be, maybe you can add another sentence

EDIT: It's 40ish characters

[rancid sun]

I know, I wasn't planning on making this the entire entry

[rich goblet]

Oh cool, I wasn't sure

I have been humbled

[rancid sun]

Worked on it

POKENAME's shell is made out of hardened goo and houses all of its organs. Its mucus can melt pure iron.

[rich goblet]

Why iron and not steel?

[keen kestrel]

Why steel and not iron

Oh hey that’s my sprite! Haha

[rich goblet]

Go ahead and submit this, looks great 😄

[rancid sun]

Jet fuel can't melt steel beams

[clear hollow]

This is how young POKENAME who still didn't fully grasp all nuances of their abilities look like during harsh sunlight. The small underdeveloped sunny bubbles do poor job protecting their carriers from sunburns.
553.552 Castform-Sunny/Castform

Despite the effort, inexperienced POKENAME have a hard time producing water bubbles around their heads even when it rains. With time, they learn to control moisture in the air from their older relatives.
554.552 Castform-Rainy/Castform

Immature POKENAME love playing in the snow despite their inability to create the protective swirly clouds around themselves. Unfortunately, if these Pokémon aren't careful enough, prolonged exposure to cold can lead them to irreparable consequences.
555.552 Castform-Snowy/Castform

[viscid light]

@midnight siren

POKENAME is almost always seeking fame and attention, creating magnificent works of art. These artworks however induce a extreme state of drowsiness in people as the paint dries, much to POKENAME's dismay

(For anyone wondering how'd I plan this line and plenty of Smerg on going...I'll be basing this off of the SCP Group of Interest known as Are We Cool Yet? - amazing artwork, eradication of mental states)

[storm light]

@thorny crescent

[thorny crescent]

wowee !

thats adorable !

[storm light]

the sprite is adorable!

[acoustic scarab]

TIL that the submissions form doesn't work while I'm using train wifi, I'd planned to knock out a few while travelling

ah well

weirdly the form itself loads, I just can't fill in the text fields

oh, there we go

how strange

had to follow the link from the fusion dex site, but it seems to be working now

very odd

[clear hollow]

With the dim flickering of its tail, this eerie Pokémon is believed to guide the lost souls to the afterlife. If for whatever reason a living being follows POKENAME's light, they mysteriously go missing, never to be found again.
311.533 Duskull/Volbeat

People call POKENAME the Harbingers of Death, as they often gather in places where someone's about to pass away in several hours at most. With the scent of rotting flesh, Venusaur and Vileplume attract these Pokémon as pollinators.
311.534 Duskull/Illumise

[willow venture]

Are these yours?

[viscid light]

Stan._ wherever you are...

Less a Fire/Ground type and more a mockery to Vaporeon, POKENAME is capable of becoming lava akin to how the Eevee evolution does with water. Understandably of such information, both Vaporeon and POKENAME bear a hostile rivalry.

[proud cosmos]

POKENAME has built up enough muscle memory that it can fly while fast asleep. Some say that POKENAME can communicate to its own kind using some kind of telepathy.

[hexed fog]

The plusle is causing problems

[icy canopy]

Should "do poor job" be "do a poor job"?

[hollow quartz]

too much positive, not enough negative--the balance is out of wack

[rich goblet]

Is there another way you could phrase this?

Maybe like "In harsh sunglight, POKENAME take this appearance because XYZ"

In the current state, the subject of the sentence is quite long. The second sentence is fine though!

[rich goblet]

The inclusion of Vaporeon is confusing and makes this entry not standalone. You can say it has a rivalry with Vaporeon but calling it "a mockery to Vaporeon" is not dex tone.

Also, "Less a Fire/Ground type" makes it sound it is not Fire/Ground, which it is.

[rancid sun]

POKENAME is capable of becoming lava akin to how Vaporeon does with water. Understandably of such information, both the Eevee evolution and POKENAME bear a hostile rivalry.

Fixed it slightly/nm

[rich goblet]

This requires knowledge of how Vaporeon melts into water, something that the player may not encounter before fusing Slugpert together

[rancid sun]

POKENAME is capable of melting into lava.

With that taken out, it's a bit short

[rich goblet]

Short is fine as long as it meets the requirements

POKENAME is capable of melting into lava. It has a rivalry with Vaporeon because of its ability to melt.

EDIT: This works because we introduce the melting concept first

[storm light]

If you want to lengthen it, maybe something like:POKENAME is capable of melting into lava, becoming nearly indistinguishable as it swims.

[rich goblet]

This is also acceptable

[rancid sun]

Thanks, but I dont want to take the credit for someone else's entry

[rich goblet]

Don't! They'll reply when they see it

[storm light]

I mean, I don't mind helping out as long as it means the mons get the entries they deserve

You can take it as your own, idm

[rich goblet]

It's Falsedoll's entry so I'd wait until they can respond

sorry lovelover76's

[storm light]

Ah

[clear hollow]

Yeah, I'm mostly writing for my own sprites unless I enter some challenge like dexdoku

[rich goblet]

@clear hollow You write some cool entries, figure I let you know

[clear hollow]

How about

In harsh sunlight, young POKENAME take this appearance since they still didn't fully grasp all nuances of their abilities. The small underdeveloped sunny bubbles do a poor job protecting their carriers from sunburns.

[rich goblet]

[clear hollow]

Thanks! I'm not a native speaker so it can be a little challenging sometimes, but I love learning from you all

[rich goblet]

No problem! It's nice to see a spriter write, it makes for some fun entries

[clear hollow]

Are the other baby Forms good to go?

[hexed fog]

Nose List is up!

GOGOGO

[rancid sun]

*gloves

[dusty hound]

oops

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/nosepass+budew/

Thoughts?

[rich goblet]

First one is fine

Second one has the last sentence that does not fit Dex tone, remember that the Pokédex is like an encyclopedia

Third one has a similar issue with the first sentence

[dusty hound]

Would it be just simple to just remove those sentences or should I replace them with something else

[rich goblet]

That depends on whether the entry would meet the 100 character threshold if you removed it completely

[dusty hound]

Whimsitop is above 100 characters Swirchan is at 96 character but thats easily fixable

Cottom candy taken from POKENAME's gloves can be added into tea, where it is said to pack quite a punch!

[thorn ingot]

The second sentence is an incomplete sentence

[dusty hound]

oh wait im dumb

[rancid sun]

Cotton candy taken from POKENAME's gloves can be added into tea, where it's said to pack quite a punch!

[rich goblet]

Did you read what I post? The second entry, last sentence was the issue. You changed the first sentence

[dusty hound]

I got them mixed up so ill get it corrected

how about

[rich goblet]

Put a period at the end and it should be good

[dusty hound]

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/41.58a/

Also I found out that fusion has a Ben 10 sprite lol

I do prefer the sprite I used over this though

[rich goblet]

You know how to submit entries to alt sprites right

[rancid sun]

Yes I do

[rich goblet]

Cool cool

[severe scroll]

@storm light Hope your day is going well. I'd love 10 more Torchic line dex entry needs. :3

I've done one for the Seel and Axew fusions

[hollow quartz]

tragically the nose was a short list

[willow venture]

Is there any Hoenn mons unboosted yet

[hollow quartz]

we've done wurmple, torchic, treecko, mudkip, plusle, ralts, nosepass, and kecleon so far

specifically in the order of wurmple, treecko, torchic, mudkip, ralts, kecleon, plusle, and nosepass

[willow venture]

Are the evos part of the boosted entry initiative or

[rich goblet]

Boosted?

[willow venture]

Yknow this

[rich goblet]

Oh

I think solrock and lunatone haven’t been boosted yet

[hollow quartz]

well any not among what i listed haven't been "boosted"

[hollow quartz]

none of the evos have specifically been on any of the lists so far, no

outside of the head's evolution if it has one

[willow venture]

Once I got back to writing I gotta get right to doing the Hoenn final evos then

[hollow quartz]

for example, one of them had a fusion with carvanha as a head and sharpedo as a head both on the list

[willow venture]

I haven't written in awhile and you guys already doing a lotta boosts

[hollow quartz]

forever forced to scream

[severe scroll]

Firin' ma lazer!!

[hollow quartz]

this feels like it borders on horror (in a good way)

[severe scroll]

Carbink?

[hollow quartz]

yeah

[severe scroll]

Whoa

[willow venture]

What's the Diancie look like

[willow venture]

Same artist or different?

Kinda disarms the obvious horror but there's still a good amount on this one lol

[hollow quartz]

p sure different artists, just based on the different details and whatnot

[clear hollow]

POKENAME barely feels any pain and often sticks sharp objects into its body, covering them in its venom as they go through. When this Pokémon senses danger, it puffs up sharply, shooting barbs and needles it collected in all directions.
211.357 Qwilfish/Banette

[true walrus]

Ah yes my preferred channel

[wet pewter]

Got an interesting idea... 560.505 Sealeo/Linoone
How does this sound?

"Despite its lack of legs, POKENAME can run over 60 mph. It puts its sensitive whiskers on the ground to feel its preys' whereabouts. It can only run in straight lines, so it relies on stalking and pouncing."

[storm light]

Can you alsp post the sprite of this please?

[wet pewter]

lemme find it rq

[storm light]

Alright

• I think it might be better to say "lack of hind legs", since the sprite still has forelegs
• I love Pokemon magics, but 60mph seems a bit odd for a Pokemon that can only scoot with its forelegs, the most I'd probably put it is about 10-15mph. It's still really fast for such a small creature, but it's a bit more believable

Other than that, seems like a good entry!

[wet pewter]

its funny i imagine it pushing off with its forelegs and darting forwards lol

wait what if i try this...

[storm light]

See we can take that in an interesting direction, but it will come at the cost of other info

[wet pewter]

"POKENAME has adapted to its lack of hind legs by pushing off with its forelegs to dart forward at high speeds. It puts its sensitive whiskers on the ground to feel its preys' whereabouts."

[storm light]

That sounds a lot better!

[hollow quartz]

idk why, but my brain's first thought on seeing this was: "new angry birds unit"

[storm light]

They launch themselves onto peoples' heads, knocking them unconscious so they can steal their food

[hollow quartz]

[severe scroll]

Hey, so I just wrote this cool progressing story in some dex entries (kind of like how the TCG cards can tell a story), and I want some feedback on how they sound.

Solochic (406.279)
Unable to keep its body together, POKENAME are contained within a glass jar that can be moved using its psychic powers. Researcher enjoy working with POKENAME due to its friendly attitude and adorable appearance.

Duochic (407.279)
Having spent most of its life in a glass jar, POKENAME seem to appear more tired after their evolution. Researchers who worked with POKENAME prior to its evolution argue that the Pokémon are growing tired or depressed due to their living conditions.

Reunichic (359.279)
POKENAME, having evolved from an understanding of knowledge, have exceled in controlling their psychic energy. POKENAME seem to choose to enjoy the small victories in makes and the company of those who surround it.

[severe scroll]

Finished! I haven't posted them yet, but I have them done (plus some extras from the lines I noticed who didn't have entries). : )

[rich goblet]

Be careful with themed entries, they still have to make sense as a standalone entry, as the player can fuse them together at any moment.

This one you could say

POKENAME lives life in its jar, weary from the constant stress around it. Researchers note that it is more likely to be tired or depressed due to its living conditions

[severe scroll]

Thank you. I was concerned about that.

[rich goblet]

POKENAME has great knowledge about the world around itself and excels at controlling its psychic energy. POKENAME seem to choose to enjoy the small victories in makes and the company of those who surround it.

[severe scroll]

That's much better

[rich goblet]

A good way to think about it considering the following question:

Do I need to know about other Pokemon before understanding this one?

If you do, it is not standalone enough to be in game.

[severe scroll]

This is why I wanted the feedback. Thank you!

Should I go ahead and post them?

Let me make a quick change to the middle entry and it should be golden

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/torkoal+torchic/

[severe scroll]

Oh! I did an entry for that one. : )

[rich goblet]

POKENAME experiences stress whenever it needs to levitate its exterior jar, leaving it weary afterwards. Researchers note that it is more likely to be tired or depressed due to its living conditions

[severe scroll]

Ooo, I like that

[rich goblet]

I’ll be lurking around, I’ve got a movie I need to watch

[severe scroll]

Working on the entries you suggested, Julian

[rancid sun]

I did two entries recently! (Zubat + Growlithe and Nosepass + Carvanha)

I'm working on a Treecko entry

SInce I did ones for MUdkip and TOrchic

[severe scroll]

Nice!

[rancid sun]

Abra + Treecko to be exact

Might do one for Seel + Axew as well

[severe scroll]

Do it

[rancid sun]

I am

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/pichu+torchic/

https://www.fusiondex.org/piplup+togepi/ Probably gonna do this one too

[rich goblet]

Did you know that reptile eggs are leathery

[rancid sun]

I did

https://www.fusiondex.org/axew+togepi/

https://www.fusiondex.org/sandile+togepi/ This might be better since this is an actual reptile

[severe scroll]

Torchxew (279.414)
POKENAME have been observed to be very picky eaters. This Pokémon will crush the berries with its tusks or heat the berries with its fire before consuming them. Chefs have used these techniques to best prepare dishes involving these same berries.

Axechic (414.279)
This Pokémon is rarely far from its nest, playing with its siblings by knocking their horns together in a test of strength. While POKENAME have little to physically protect themselves, their fireballs can leave opponents badly burned.

Axebusken (414.280)
Outside of their home nests, sibling and rival POKENAME will challenge each other to tests of strength with different contests. These challenges can include speed kicking, fireball spitting, and berry crushing.

[severe scroll]

Finished! lol Haven't posted them all, but I'm done! ^u^

[rich goblet]

This Pokémon is rarely far from its nest and plays with its siblings by knocking their horns together in a test of strength. While POKENAME have little to physically protect themselves, their fireballs can leave opponents badly burned.

Something like that

[severe scroll]

Is it a semicolon?

[rich goblet]

I’ll fix the punctuation when it gets submitted

[severe scroll]

I think it's a comma

[rich goblet]

I think so, could be a comma but I’ll check later

Fixed

[rancid sun]

I've already done this Pokemon

[severe scroll]

Want me to post the other ones I have to get them checked before submission?

[rancid sun]

Sure

[rich goblet]

If you want to Kat

[severe scroll]

I'd love to. I like the feedback.

[rancid sun]

Your Axechic entry is better than mine

[rich goblet]

One sec, swapping devices

Also a sprite can have multiple entries, just not from the same author

[severe scroll]

Will warn now, it's a lot.

Goochic (444.279)
POKENAME's have a tendency to lose their balance and fall due to the slimy membrane covering their bodies. To keep themselves from drying out, POKENAME enjoy sitting outside at dawn to soak in the morning dew.

Goobusken (444.280)
POKENAME has excellent balance because it spends its time sliding on trails of mucus. Many POKENAME have learned to harness this slick mucous to move quickly in battle.

Slichic (445.279)
POKENAME fight using hot slime balls from within its body. Researchers harness the corrosiveness of POKENAME's mucous to break down organic material.

I'll try to do them in batches based on the lines.

We start with the Goomy line

[rich goblet]

You could say scientists instead of observers, but its also a bit hyperbolic, like does it melt through the floor?

[severe scroll]

From what I know, the attacks can if its for extended periods of time.

[rich goblet]

Again, it feels hyperbolic because it is just a small Pokémon, maybe for a final evolution but not on Torchic

[severe scroll]

How's that?

[stiff pulsar]

[severe scroll]

I can't spell, lol

[rich goblet]

corrosiveness

[rich goblet]

This entry needs to seperate out from the pre-evolution.

It would go something like...
POKENAME has excellent balance because it spends its time sliding on trails of mucus. Many POKENAME have learned to harness this slick mucous to move quickly in battle.

[severe scroll]

I did write this one before for Solosis line, so I forgot to catch that. Thank you!

So both of those are now good?

[rich goblet]

What are you trying to say with the second sentence?

[severe scroll]

Just a fun bit of "how this Pokémon befits human research"

[rich goblet]

POKENAME fight using hot slime balls from within its body. Researchers harness the corrosiveness of POKENAME's mucous to break down organic material.

[severe scroll]

Ooo! That's so much nicer!

[rich goblet]

Comes with experience

Sometimes simplifying what you want to say can be helpful

Especially for Pokedex entries, you do not have to hedge your bets

[severe scroll]

Okay! Shinx line!

[rich goblet]

You can just say it does a thing

[severe scroll]

Shichic (388.279a)
Ruffling their feathers causes POKENAME to build up static electricity around their bodies. However, due to their clumsy feet, POKENAME have a bad habit of shocking themselves after falling.

Shichic (388.279)
POKENAME have very excitable personalities. When this Pokémon hops around out of excitement, its body will begin to generate electricity, radiate heat, and in some cases, their tails and fur-like feathers will begin to glow.

I love Shinx ❤️

[stiff pulsar]

All these torchic fusions 🥹

[severe scroll]

I've done 80+ Torchic fusion entries. ❤️

[rancid sun]

I've done 2

Then again I'm new here

[severe scroll]

Same! And I'm having a blast!

[sacred ocean]

i lowk js made 4 tuff reference fusions

And I really appreciate all the help and feedback ❤️

[rich goblet]

POKENAME has a very excitable personality. When this Pokémon hops with excitement, its body will begin to generate electricity, radiate heat, and in some cases, their tails and fur-like feathers will begin to glow.

Keep in mind for most entries, sticking to one set of pronouns is preferred

they/them for groups or sentient Pokemon

it/its for for single Pokemon or mechanical Pokemon

[severe scroll]

That makes sense!

[stiff pulsar]

you are doing great!

[severe scroll]

Okay, got some legendaries

Torchgia (279.249)
This Pokémon loves to fly, even though it is still learning how to control its wings. When a POKENAME successfully lands after a flight, it will hop around and chirp loudly in joy over its accomplishment.

I think I fixed the pronouns

[rich goblet]

strongest flyer?

Like the strongest or is flying not its strong suit

[severe scroll]

Torchoh (279.250)
When in direct sunlight, the sheen of POKENAME's feathers reflects back in a rainbow of colors. POKENAME will fly around and follow people it finds interesting; these same people have reported having great days when interviewed later by researchers.

[severe scroll]

the 2nd one

Celechic (251.279a)
POKENAME has the ability to travel through time, though its lack of experience keeps it mostly in the same area. When it senses a temporal anomaly nearby, POKENAME will carefully approach and attempt to intervene to the best of its ability.

[rich goblet]

This Pokémon loves to fly, even though it is still learning how to control its wings. When a POKENAME successfully lands after a flight, it will hop around and chirp loudly in joy over its accomplishment.

This makes the idea you're presenting clearer I think

[severe scroll]

Celechic (251.279)
POKENAME hop around the forest under the watchful gaze of their parents. These Pokémon develop their psychic powers to protect the woodland around them.

[rich goblet]

Be careful with the character limit, you have 250 max, hard cap.

[rancid sun]

Just did it!

[severe scroll]

I have been trying to watch the word count. I've actually fixed a lot of the ones I write because I exceed that limit. It's also why I'm looking for feedback to help sum up some of these ideas. Super thankful for that, by the way.

[rich goblet]

This entry feels too specific to one instance of the Pokemon

The shrine part especially

[severe scroll]

How's that?

[rich goblet]

This concept can be hard but we have to assume that more than one POKENAME exist

Even if it is a legendary

The entry implies that all POKENAME come from the same shrine

[severe scroll]

That makes sense. How's this then?
POKENAME hop around the forest they call home under the watch of their parents. These Pokémon learn from them how to protect their forest using their psychic powers.

[rich goblet]

POKENAME hop around the forest under the watchful gaze of their parents. These Pokémon develop their psychic powers to protect the woodland around them.

[severe scroll]

So much better wording! Unlike this sentence... lol

Torchrunt (279.425a)
Continuous debate regarding this Pokémon having feathers or scales is ongoing. POKENAME are known to be aggressive and will attack anyone who gets close with its powerful beak.

[rich goblet]

I'm confused by the first sentence, but here's how I interpret it

This Pokémon has feathers that are mistaken for scales because of their shape and size.

[severe scroll]

This one had me stumped, but I wanted to try and integrate the idea that people believe dinos had scales like lizards, but were recently found to be closer related to birds and might have had feathers.

And yeah. That was the idea I was going for.

[rich goblet]

You could say something like...

[severe scroll]

I might go back and rework this one... it feels too generic. Like, I could use this with any bird fusion...

[rich goblet]

POKENAME has feathers that were once mistaken for scales belonging to prehistoric Pokémon. In-depth investigation reveals that while its feathers and prehistoric scales are similar, its feathers are made up of more keratin than scales are.

[severe scroll]

Again, that's very well worded, but it doesn't stand out as Torchic-Tyrunt fusion.

[rich goblet]

Yeah, maybe you could put that entry on a more generic flying type like pidgey

[severe scroll]

Fair.

Okay, lets do a cute one!

Sphechic (559.279)
POKENAME entertain themselves by hoping and rolling around in the snow, using chirps to communicate. The fire within their bellies helps this Pokémon remain comfortable, even during blizzards.

[rich goblet]

I would just nix the parents part and call it a day, especially because it is over the character limit

[severe scroll]

How's that?

[severe scroll]

The original entry was 238 characters.

[rich goblet]

Oh I included the name when I checked

It's good either way

[rich goblet]

I would say downy feathers, but otherwise good entry

[severe scroll]

Okay, Togepi line. This one has a few.

Torchpi (279.175a)
POKENAME uses the shell from its egg as an insulator to keep heat around its core, as well as an extra layer of protection. POKENAME have been seen nibbling on the edges of its shell when hungry.

Torchtic (279.176a)
Having clumsy feet, POKENAME prefer to float in the air to avoid tripping. When this Pokémon is around stressful situations, it will land and try to find a place to hide or a trusted individual to confide in.

Togechic (176.279)
POKENAME seem to love chirping happily and hopping around in an attempt spread its joy to others. When it witnesses an individual smile, overjoyed, POKENAME will flutter its wings, begin floating, and kick its feet.

Togebusken (176.280)
POKENAME are used as mascots to sell fitness plans because of their aura of good luck and gleeful personality. Keeping POKENAME fit and motivated brings joy to everyone nearby.

Togebusken (175.280)
POKENAME are usually seen with their parents as this Pokémon has a hard time being independent. When left or alone or can't find its parents, POKENAME will cry out loudly and throw a kicking temper tantrum.

That's what I have for this line. ❤️

[rich goblet]

POKENAME are used as mascots to sell fitness plans because of their aura of good luck and gleeful personality. Keeping POKENAME fit and motivated brings joy to everyone nearby.

[severe scroll]

That is amazing!

Onchic (95.279)
This Pokémon has a hard time walking due to its uncoordinated feet and top-heavy head. If this Pokémon falls and cannot right itself, POKENAME will tunnel into the ground before surfacing and landing on its feet.

Okay. Aron line now!

I had fun with this one.

Torchon (279.390)
POKENAME seem to be skittish by nature, opting to flee over fighting. However, if startled, it will use fire attacks to distract opponents before running. Researchers have found that POKENAME's hard body is warm to the touch.

Comon (280.390)
POKENAME seem to be competitive by nature, opting to fight over fleeing. However, if this Pokémon knows it cannot win in a fight, POKENAME will deal as much damage as it can before finding a chance to retreat.

Blaon (281.390)
POKENAME seem to be protective by nature, willing to fight until it can't to protect weaker Pokémon. Observers have witnessed POKENAME engulfed in its own flames to deter its attackers or power itself up for a scorching blow.

Archic (390.279)
The metal mask on POKENAME's face softens the damage it takes when tripping over its uncoordinated feet. To attack, POKENAME headbutts foes to bash and disorient their enemies.

Archic (390.279a)
With laser-like focus, POKENAME can maneuver their environment without tripping over themselves. These Pokémon have strong iron heads that deal massive damage to anything it collides with.

[rich goblet]

willing to fight until it can't... etc etc

[rich goblet]

The metal mask on POKENAME's face softens the damage it takes when tripping over its uncoordinated feet. To attack, POKENAME headbutts foes to bash and disorient their enemies.

[severe scroll]

And I did send the Axew line and Solosis line already. Those were good?

Torchxew (279.414)
POKENAME have been observed to be very picky eaters. This Pokémon will crush the berries with its tusks or heat the berries with its fire before consuming them. Chefs use these techniques to prepare dishes involving these same berries.

Axechic (414.279)
This Pokémon is rarely far from its nest, playing with its siblings by knocking their horns together in a test of strength. While POKENAME have little to physically protect themselves, their fireballs can leave opponents badly burned.

Axebusken (414.280)
Outside of their home nests, sibling and rival POKENAME will challenge each other to tests of strength with different contests. These challenges can include speed kicking, fireball spitting, and berry crushing.

Awesome! That's everything!

That was 28 entries! Time to go post them.

Thank you again for your help, Ducky!

[rich goblet]

@severe scroll Have I assigned you the filler words reading yet? If I haven't, here it is:
#dex-entries-discussion message

In general, you're doing pretty good, just gotta remember that you can just assume a Pokémon does something instead of saying it might do something

April Dexchallenge Day 18! 🌸
Ludily #477.302
By raising all eight of their claws up to their heads, POKENAME will disguise themselves as flowers while releasing a pleasant aroma. These arms will swiftly grab anyone looking to pollinate them, consuming them whole.

[severe scroll]

Bulbachic (1.279a)
The feathery leaves sprouting from the bulb on its head help POKENAME blend into the surround foliage. POKENAME enjoys bathing in sunlight to warm its body and nurture its bulb.

[rancid sun]

Anything else I should add?

[severe scroll]

Venuchic (3.279)
This Pokémon converts sunlight into fuel for its fire through the flower on its head. POKENAME's Solar Beam is comparable to a flamethrower.

[severe scroll]

What's the fusion? You definitely need more than one sentence.

[rancid sun]

SAndile + Togepi

[severe scroll]

Maybe something about how it might occasionally get stuck on its back?

Togepi has that problem. lol

[rich goblet]

This is a misconception, it just has to fit the character limit

Sorry, I had to step out for a bit

Does it slow down in winter? Does its diet affect the speed? Hit that delicious 150 avg character count

[clear hollow]

It enjoys long walks on the beach and collecting shells to impress other POKENAME. It likes posing and showing off its gorgeous fins, but if the potential admirers come too close, this Pokémon will drive them away with vicious kicks.
118.106 Goldeen/Hitmonlee

its walks are very long

[strong flame]

long strides on the beach

[vernal beacon]

I should share some of the ones I've submitted actually :']

Its wings glow brighter the more treasure it collects. When a swarm of POKENAME gather together, the resulting light is so intense that it can cause temporary blindness if viewed by the naked eye.

Despite its lifestyle of tunneling underground, its body is actually covered in a soft layer of fur. The evolution stones embedded within its skin often become dislodged, making POKENAME nesting grounds a highly sought out location by gem traders.

[rancid sun]

Of course I'll improve on this

[rich goblet]

Water type Pokemon don’t normally slow down in winter?

[rancid sun]

Good point

Removed that

[rich goblet]

Maybe to connect the two sentences you could say “throwing speed”

Lik

It throws stars made out of electricity and water. The more nutritious its diet, the greater its throwing speed.

In that order

[final briar]

playing catch up again!
April Dexchallenge Day 10: Rainy Castform
Castreep 554.179
This Pokémon enjoys floating around in the sky among other cumulo-nimbus clouds. It can grow a bit larger when it absorbs enough water vapor, making it heavy and sinking closer to the ground.

April Dexchallenge Day 11: Pom-Pom Oricorio
Spinacorio #167.431
POKENAME fashions itself pom-poms made of its silky, sticky web. It lives in dense forests and stands on the sidelines of battles between larger bugs like Heracross and Pinsir, cheering them on.

April Dexchallenge Day 12: Flower
477.195 Lusire
POKENAME is an amphibious Pokémon that lives in marshlands. It buries itself in mud and keeps its mouth open under the water, waiting for fish Pokémon to accidentally swim in. The bright colors of its petals and docile demeanor makes it popular with younger trainers.

Dex Challenge Day 13: Beauty
Gouroh #490.250
This beautiful Pokémon is sometimes spotted flying in the autumnal night skies. It is rumored that if it flies over a plot of farm land, the fall harvest will be bountiful.

[storm light]

May have to axe October and just say fall/autumn nights

[final briar]

sure!

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/axew+seel/ Made a start

[rich goblet]

You should talk about how it breaks ice with the tusks

[rancid sun]

YES THATS PERFECT

[hollow quartz]

My mind wen to shaved ice and/or ice sculptures from how they grind their tusks against ice to keep them sharp

though I also have the mind of "it uses its tial tusks to carve out chunks of ice, then uses its tail to fling these chunks at enemies" since my brain is wired to think of how "weaponized" a monster could be--to which i blame Ridley from Metroid and all of MonHun

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/403.375b/ Just did an entry for this POkemon.

[hollow quartz]

For my occasional goofy-ish entry: POKENAME love to leap from tall heights to glide, then dive down into the water below; they only leap from heights with plenty of water nearby. Some people have begun to make a game of betting on how large of a splash a diving POKENAME will create.

-# In summary: I present the Cannonball Diver Pokémon

[proud cosmos]

POKENAME is only is able to move its tail, leaving many to use it as a method of transportation. In unlucky circumstances, a POKENAME can take years to store up the electricity needed for it to evolve.

[severe scroll]

I've got more Torchic fusions!

Torchsaur (279.1)
POKENAME is able to control the flame on its back and create vine-like embers to attack opponents. During rainstorms, POKENAME will seek shelter to avoid spending energy to keep its flame going.

Torchsaur (279.1a)
The bulb on POKENAME's back holds the flame it uses for its fire attacks. Basking in the sun allows the bulb to produce energy for the fire on its own and give POKENAME time to rest.

Torchsaur (279.1b)
When startled, POKENAME will shake the leafy feathers on its back, causing poisonous pollen to cloud around its opponent. On cold nights, POKENAME will sleep in groups to keep each other warm.

Torchsaur (279.1c)
POKENAME take great pride in caring for the egg in the nest on its back. When it feels that something is going to threaten it or the egg, POKENAME will spit fiery poison to disable the attacker and then flee.

Torchsaur (279.1d)
POKENAME take great pride in caring for the egg in the nest on its back. POKENAME will shake the feathers on its head to release scorching pollen to disable any attackers and then flee.

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/sprite/pif/403.376a/ Did an inversion with the two heads getting along because of this sprite

[severe scroll]

Comsaur (280.1)
This Pokémon moves around by hopping with its strong back legs and landing back on all four limbs. On rare occasions, POKENAME will stand on its back legs to spit fire at its opponent.

Blasaur (281.1)
The bulb on POKENAME's back is constantly spitting flames. This Pokémon has great balance and can walk around on its hind legs, but studies show that it prefers walking on all fours.

Torchsaur (279.2)
POKENAME take great pride in caring for the eggs in the nest on its back. When it feels that something is threatening it or the eggs, POKENAME will stand its ground and light the leaves surrounding the nest to protect them.

Comsaur (280.2)
POKENAME take great pride in caring for the chicks in the nest on its back and providing food by using its blazing vines to feed them. POKENAME keeps the leaves surrounding the nest ablaze to discourage the chicks from jumping off.

Comsaur (280.3)
POKENAME take great pride in caring for the chicks in the nest on its back and preparing for them to leave. POKENAME monitor the chicks as they practice walking, using its heated vines to pick them up when they fall or place them back into the nest.

April Challenge from the last two days

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/buneary+hydreigon/ Made a start

[severe scroll]

Blasaur (281.3b)
When this Pokémon lands after jumping, it triggers massive shock waves that cause foes to lose their footing and fall. While down, POKENAME will set its massive legs ablaze before stomping down onto the opponent.

[hollow quartz]

i'm unsure why, but this fella feels familiar--like it feels like a reference to something in the depths of my mental crevices that i cannot quite retrieve

[severe scroll]

Bulbabusken (1.280)
When this Pokémon does not eat, POKENAME relies on the energy stored in the muscles in its legs to keep it going. If POKENAME relies too heavily on this ability, it will become slower in fights due to lack of nutrients.

Ivybusken (2.280)
When injured in combat, POKENAME can draw nutrients from the bulb on its head and receive a burst of energy to keep fighting. After combat, POKENAME will find a sunny place to lay down and rest, replenishing the bulb's lost energy.

Venubusken (3.280)
POKENAME see themselves as leaders of their groups and will challenge those it sees as competition to prove their strength. The size and colors of the flower petals around their waist are symbols of each POKENAME's strength.

Venuziken (3.281)
POKENAME gather energy through the floral pattern that surrounds and hangs off of its head. This energy gives POKENAME the strength and speed it needs to move around, so it is always moving, searching for large sunny areas to train and rest.

I feel like I'm getting better at this.

[rich goblet]

I think they're pretty good, especially Ivybusken, I like the imagery of it. Intensely fighting to napping in the summer sunshine

[severe scroll]

Awesome! I think I'm going to go ahead and post them. :3

[storm light]

On this one though. If it uses it's flaming vines to feed the chicks, then wouldnt they become desensitized to the flames and jump off anyway?

[severe scroll]

That is eventually the goal. It kind of hints at the evolution helping them leave the nest without directly referencing it.

[storm light]

aah, alright

[severe scroll]

Question...
The sprites in PIF have author credits for who created it. Is this the same for the dex entries?

April Dex Challenge Day 15: Frog Pokemon
Gosaur 76.2
This slow going Pokémon likes to take a sunny nap in patches of produce. Too often a farmer will think POKENAME's rocky bulb is a strange cabbage and get chased away with its vines.

(ivysaur is totally a frog, right?)

[storm light]

Also izik has said before you're free to make entries for any the pokemon he has already made for he just wants the dex numbers to go up

April Dex Challenge Day 16: "Tea"
Delibell #225.71
POKENAME lives in colder climates, luring prey pokemon in with the scent of peppermint. Its leaves make for a refreshing holiday tea if one can manage to defeat it in battle.

it totally looks like it could make a peppermint tea if you boil those leaves, yeah?

(totally not poisonous, not if you cook long enough!)

[severe scroll]

I was told to try and avoid directly addressing the player in dex entries.

Maybe something like... "It's leaves are commonly used to make a holiday peppermint tea."

[final briar]

April Dex Challenge Day 17: Sun Stone
Sunuk 192.89
POKENAME's sludge-like substance is actually a concentration of sap and pollen. Allergists make medicine out of the substance to help with people's springtime hay fever.

wasn't sure about the quotations

[severe scroll]

maybe single quotes would work better?

[storm light]

Why say it's sludge at all if it isnt? /gen

[final briar]

does putting "one" instead of "you" fix it? I would like to keep the battle part to show that its ornery

[final briar]

bc muk is a sludge pokemon and people might assume it is. What else would I call it? hmm hmm. slime?

[storm light]

Maybe you could say " sludge-like substance"?

[severe scroll]

Torchcada (279.382)
POKENAME gather in groups underground, chittering to communicate. They prefer staying in groups to keep each other warm as they await their evolutions.

[final briar]

tru tru. it's a bit wordier but more accurate

[severe scroll]

I'm not the most knowledgeable with Nincada, so I will need some feedback on these fusions.

[rich goblet]

That looks fine I think

[storm light]

I'll be in here sporadically bc i'm watching Wrestlemania with the family

[severe scroll]

Comcada (280.382)
While waiting for evolution underground, these Pokémon tend to be adamant gatherers. POKENAME find joy in carving roots with their sharp, heated claws and helping create nests.

Blainja (281.289)
The halo above POKENAME's head symbolizes this Pokémon's life. If this Pokémon were to perish, only then would the flame go out.

Thoughts? @rich goblet

I did my best with the knowledge I have and researched.

[rich goblet]

Avoid “Origins” of a fusion, it gets messy. Especially since each fusion is made of two different Pokemon

[severe scroll]

I'll rework it and post it again

[rich goblet]

This one is a bit tricky, I would say something like “it is connected to the fiery spirit of POKENAME and only extinguishes once it dies” or something like that

[severe scroll]

I wasn't sure about using the word 'die'

But I can work with that now

[rich goblet]

You know, good point, maybe replace dies with like “passes” or something

I almost forgot this was a Pokemon game we’re talking about

No dying, only ghosts

[severe scroll]

Okay, how are these?

Torchinja (279.289)
The yolk that seeps from POKENAME's shell smells of rot. Cheeps of joy can be heard from POKENAME when it is approached and given attention.

Blainja (281.289)
The halo above this Pokémon's head is connected to the fiery spirit of POKENAME and only goes out after fainting. The intense stare of POKENAME deters foes from attacking it.

[rancid sun]

These are better

[rich goblet]

Passes doesn’t sit right, maybe it should say “once it faints” or some other cliche, I rarely deal with death in my entries so it’s a little hard for me lol

[severe scroll]

Like that?

[severe scroll]

What about the other one?

[rich goblet]

It was good!

[severe scroll]

Ninchic (382.279)
POKENAME only come out during the night deep within the forests. During their outings, POKENAME will search for large trees to scratch into and drink the moisture from.

Ninziken (356.281a)
Moving swiftly and silently, POKENAME can strike down foes without being noticed. Leaping large distances into the air, POKENAME use their wings to adjust their decent and strike with extreme precision.

Shedchic (289.279)
The cheeps that come from this Pokémon sound hollow and eerie. Despite this, POKENAME are friendly towards trainers and will happily hop behind and follow them.

Shedbusken (289.280)
Despite their fragile bodies, POKENAME are dedicated to training. These Pokémon enjoy running and kicking, but have to take frequent breaks to rest.

Shedziken (289.281)
Standing completely still, POKENAME's sticky wrist wraps are the only thing that move freely and attach to anything they touch. As the prey struggles, the wrappings bind the foe. Once stuck, POKENAME will move and crush it with a scorching kick.

[coral crypt]

Hi, I wanted to try writing some dex entries. I read through the document. I wanted to clarify whether it was okay to mention names of animal groups in our world that aren't used in common parlance (Troop of Chimchar, brood of Tentacool) etc.

also in the lore of the world, are wild fused pokemon rare to the point that it's unlikely that a social group of a particular fused species would form? or is that assumption okay

[willow venture]

I've got dex entries calling a group of Piplup fusions "waddles of", you can definitely do this

I bet "Murders of [Murkrow fusion here]" would work too

[hexed fog]

That is completely fine.

People also create their own like "a melody of Jigglypuff"

[ruby wadi]

Dex entry for Zoromime (338.122): Packs of POKENAME can be found in hot, rocky areas. It sometimes makes music using it’s ears, yelling “Hyehehe” while doing so.

Also i should really read that document

There just wasn’t a pin

[ruby wadi]

Wait it already has a custom pokedex entry

Nvm

[rancid sun]

@ruby wadi ☝️

[rich goblet]

The “hyehehe” part does not fit Dex tone, even though it is a reference sprite it still needs to describe a Pokémon species.

[storm light]

You could probably say something like "lets out a sinister laugh-like cry"

Or turn the music making (ear bells jingling i assume) into a way the pack communicates with one another. But i inderstand if that deviates from your idea a bit too much

[rancid sun]

That's what I thought

[rich goblet]

I probably should have included that suggestion when I made that post.

I'm still learning

[storm light]

We all are :)

[hollow quartz]

Learning is constant

[ebon warren]

Well, it should be. It isn't always constant though.

Mostly due to people being stubborn or obstinate

[hollow quartz]

Yes, I was speaking in regards to how it should be

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/flygon+scraggy/

[storm light]

Entries need to be as standalone as possible since players may or may not have seen the previous/future evolutions or their entries

It also sounds mildly individual specific

[rancid sun]

Ah OK

Wasn't sure what to put for that Pokemon yet

[thorny crescent]

Thats not long enough at all

You should probably read the rules for dex entries

[rancid sun]

I know

I show them before I improve on them

[rich goblet]

@thorny crescent They've been here a while, they just need a bit of help to get their gears going

[storm light]

You're likely gonna get pinged for length. I would probably tecommend making up the whole entry then coming in to post it for feedback

[thorny crescent]

Ohhh alr

[rich goblet]

I'm more confused about what it headbutts while airborne? You should include that in your entry, right now it doesn't describe what it is headbutting

Can't headbutt if there's nothing solid to butt against

[rancid sun]

IDK I was trying to think of something

Bear eith me while I try to

[rich goblet]

Take your time

[rancid sun]

CUrrently thinking of the second sentence

[rich goblet]

The second sentence looks alright, just don't forget the Pokémon é

[rancid sun]

OK

[coral crypt]

am I allowed to say "fighting for dominance"?

like animals do in our world

[rich goblet]

Dominance is fine, thanks for asking

[storm light]

I also asked about it a while ago, but you can mention impressing and fighting for potential mates and the breeding season, just don't go into the actual stuff

[coral crypt]

would love some feedback on these if / when possible

[keen kestrel]

omg those are so great

I also like making entries in a google doc haha

[rancid sun]

I've done one of the Swirlix/Mudkip fusion!

I'd do the rest if they had custom made sprites

[keen kestrel]

the only one that confused me was swirlix/monferno

This Pokemon [...] has a tail that can regenerate. They are used often in fights with other POKENAME [...]
In the first sentence, both Pokemon and Tail are singular, but in the second you said "They" as in plural

which is incorrect, and confused me bc I didn't know what "They" meant (I thought it meant the pokemon species at first lol)

you could just say "These tails are used" or w/e

[coral crypt]

Ah yeah good catch

[keen kestrel]

Otherwise awesome work, I love how many creative ideas you were able to come up with for sugar fire monkey

[coral crypt]

I think this should be a bit more clear

[coral crypt]

Ty! Tried to not to repeat “flame” “fire” “tail” “sweets” “sugar” and “confectionary” too many times in each entry. Glad they all turned out a bit unique

[coral crypt]

Would it fall within “Pokemon Magic” to say this fusion flies by rapidly spinning those appendages around like helicopter blades

[severe scroll]

I mean, have you seen how Doduo fly? lol

[rich goblet]

That is allowed, and is probably already referenced in some entries

[severe scroll]

Murchic (198.279)
These flightless scavengers hang around parks, hiding in the brush, watching people pass by. When POKENAME see something shiny they want, they will hop near bags and steal the shiny object before hopping away.

[coral crypt]

I always imagined it as them jumping really high, which tbh is equally as absurd

[coral crypt]

This is an adorable mental image

You may want to swap “ground” for “flightless”, ground doesn’t sound as natural here

[severe scroll]

That does sound better! Thank you!

Honchchic (256.279a)
POKENAME commonly get into squabbles about loot found in their flocks. The POKENAME with the bigger feathers in their hat more often win these disagreements than not.

This is kind of a joke one, but I love the imagery.

Honchchic (256.279)
POKENAME love shiny things as well as things that glow. When given the chance, POKENAME pick up cigarette butts with their beaks and mock the people who dropped them.

[rancid sun]

To be fair, I did an entry for a Pokemon with an Invader Zim sprite earlier

[coral crypt]

I'm not sure if it's in the guidelines, but pretty much every dex entry in canon uses the present tense. I don't know if this is enforced so if not, feel free to disregard this.
"Will commonly get" --> commonly get
"Will often win" --> often wins (maybe "usually wins" instead of "more often" for conciseness) And it should be wins since in the second sentence the subject is one singular Pokemon

[severe scroll]

Murbusken (198.280)
Often found in corn fields during twilight, POKENAME use the scarecrows posted in the fields as training dummies. Their fierce kicks and slashes leave the scarecrows in disrepair much to the farmer's dismay.

[severe scroll]

I feel like the Murchic one fits with the 'will hop over to', but I did correct the others

[hexed fog]

The 20APR2026 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.

[thorn ingot]

Why are secret list and reviewlist publically viewable on the sheet

[severe scroll]

Torchwhile (279.300)
POKENAME's small body is covered in soft down feathers, while it's massive beak is comprised mainly of tough keratin. The body houses the main source of POKENAME's fire and the beak expels these flames to attack.

[rancid sun]

I sure do like making Pokedex entries and concept art for sprites

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/litwick+raticate/ Great minds think alike

https://www.fusiondex.org/chandelure+raticate/ Might try thinking of an entry for this

[severe scroll]

Honchbusken (256.280)
This Pokémon is a fierce fighter, opting to fight its own battles. When POKENAME senses that a foe may be too much to handle on its own, it will let out a loud cry to summon a murder of its cronies to aid in battle.

[severe scroll]

Murziken (198.281)
Using their powerful legs, POKENAME keep the treasures they've stolen in hidden holes inside tall trees. POKENAME are the second-in-command to the boss of their group and can command other cronies.

[severe scroll]

Honchziken (256.281)
POKENAME are ruthless leaders. If one of POKENAME's cronies displeases it, it will be met with a powerful kick, literally and figuratively kicking that Pokémon out of the flock.

[rich goblet]

Today’s been a long, long day

Where to start…

[rancid sun]

I did some pre-evolutions and evolutions of Pokemon I've done entries for today

[rich goblet]

Cool! Always nice to get more entries

[severe scroll]

Honchziken (256.281a)
Spreading its massive wings and letting out a single cry, POKENAME can summon over 100 of its cronies from any part of the forest. POKENAME can jump great heights with its powerful legs, then soar for vast distances with its wings.

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/wigglytuff+swinub/

[rich goblet]

soar for vast distances, I think is the term

[rancid sun]

In other news I finally had a good entry for Flyggy

[severe scroll]

I felt that I had it wrong, but it wasn't being corrected

[severe scroll]

Torchkrow (279.198)
Soaring the skies, POKENAME search for shiny objects for their collection. If these Pokémon find something they want, POKENAME will spit fire at the foe before swooping down and taking their shiny treasure.

Comkrow (280.198)
Being the more aggressive of their flock, POKENAME will strike down opponents with their sharp talons. When stealing from people, it is common to see POKENAME take purses and bags to rifle through back at their nests.

Blakrow (281.198)
POKENAME have the most stamina out of the other cronies in their flocks. Because of their compact bodies and strong wings, these Pokémon are used as scouts for their boss to seek out hoards of treasure from Dragon-type Pokémon.

Blakrow (281.256)
POKENAME’s wings cover and hide a second set of talons that it uses to snatch valuables. If a crony upsets POKENAME, this Pokémon will not hesitate to deal out a scorching hot punishment.

@rich goblet These are my last ones for today. Thoughts?

[rich goblet]

Longest flight time?

This isn’t an airport /joke

[severe scroll]

x3 It can stay in the air longer than the pre-evolutions

[rich goblet]

Maybe the most stamina would make more sense

[rich goblet]

POKENAME’s wings cover and hide a second set of talons that it uses to snatch valuables.

Something like that

[severe scroll]

Murkrow was always a cool Pokémon in my eyes. Then again, I grew up with Sinnoh, so Honchkrow was always my favorite dark type next to Weavile.

Do I need to capitalize the 'D' in dragon-type?

Alright! That's the Torchic/Murkrow lines done, plus the reverses. ❤️

Tomorrow, I move onto my favorite fire monkey line crossed with the KFC line.

[rich goblet]

Yes, sorry, brain is tired today

[severe scroll]

I'm headed to bed. Night Dex Writers!

[rancid sun]

Night!

[coral crypt]

does this count as an acceptable description of predator / prey ? I don't think it's too violent but I want to confirm?

[storm light]

because it's left vague I think it's fine

I also have one like this

[hexed fog]

The Chomp List is gonna be rough

You guys have been killing it btw ❤️ ❤️

[coral crypt]

I added “brightly colored vine-like appendages” so there’s more focus on how it mimics fruits rather than the actual violence

For that particular one

But yeah, “it kills everything good” as a dex entry constrains a lot

Gabite’s entries are about hoarding gems and how its scales are thought to cure diseases, so at least those ones can be really creative

[dreamy pine]

Is there a command for posting a fusion in Discord

Because I had a question about one of the sprites that I'd maybe want to do an entry for

Because Tyrogue/Hoothoot is tripping me out

[storm light]

We usually post fusions by copy+pasting the image or link from the calcs.

?tag calcs

[upper loom]

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]

It looks like Tyrogue/Hoothoot doesn't have a custom sprite yet, so it's not eligible for a dex entry yet
https://www.fusiondex.org/tyrogue+hoothoot/

[dreamy pine]

https://www.fusiondex.org/hoothoot+tyrogue/

Nah I meant this

What the hell is this supposed to be

I kinda get Zatch Bell vibes

[storm light]

If you would like to write an entry for it, I would suggest reading up on the writing tips and FAQ located in the pins. More of the FAQ can be found on the spreadsheet (crashes on mobile) in #dex-entries-submissions (The big HERE link)

[dreamy pine]

I kinda just want a bit more discussion as to what we think this is

Unless it's not a specific reference and just

Weird boy

[storm light]

Ah, then this isn't the place for that, would recommend #fusions

but also remember that someone put time and effort into the sprite

[dreamy pine]

Nah I'm not hating on it I'm just intrigued

[willow venture]

Damn now it's the Gible line getting boosted?

😔

[storm light]

Mawile

[willow venture]

Dang that's still a favorite of mine too

[coral crypt]

Last ones for today, could I get some feedback on these if / when possible? Would appreciate it very much

There is an entry for Ferrothorn / Garchomp, but it's for the other sprite and I prefer this sprite more

[iron mango]

How can I check wether or not one of my entries is accepted or not

[unkempt plinth]

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JOqitOP72D-s_es1-F7OzVPUkKJ3tytjfvhptx1KAK8 on the google doc ? In the responses one?

Or you mean in-game ? You can check fusiondex or dummies

[clear hollow]

I always check the responses sheet by Ctrl+F my nickname

it's also good for checking if Unowns had to edit any of my mistakes or not

sometimes I mess up the commas or phrase things awkwardly and it doesn't always get caught here, so it's pretty useful to check and compare

[delicate cargo]

If Infinite Dummies is to be believed I officially have 500 entries!! May I have the role once you get the chance @hexed fog?

[azure wagon]

April Dexchallenge Day 19: Ludicolo Line 🍍

Lomdily #496.302
POKENAME lies still near the edge of lakes, mimicking a plant to lure and ambush prey. It has been known to take delight in startling humans as well.

April Dexchallenge Day 20: "Pollen" 🟡

Dustbat #510.41
POKENAME are considered one of the most valued pollinators across the world as they feed only on pollen and nectar. Swarms of the Pokémon descend upon fields and orchards at nightfall.

[hexed fog]

Uh

[upper loom]

Added Assistant Researcher (500+ dex entries) to santon5512. || No reason given.

[hexed fog]

There were go

Now go do the chomp list

Gogogo

[azure wagon]

April Dexchallenge Day 21: "Seed" 🫘

Chesinder #479.418
POKENAME uses its powerful beak to break open hard seeds and berries. The more it eats, the more durable its head-shell becomes.

[coral crypt]

Quick question for the reviewers, I wrote 14 entries yesterday and plan to write more today. Is it more convenient for you all for me to submit them as I go, or can I submit them all at once ?

I’ll do whichever is easier

[rich goblet]

Review is optional as long as you follow the lorebook and FAQ. You will be notified if you need to get review first.

Submissions are processed in bulk, and does not always reflect the time it will be in game.

That being said... let me check something related to you

Oh, is this your first time making submissions? I don't see any entries in the system yet @coral crypt

Just so you know, you need three things when you submit:

Your discord username (lowercase only)
The filename (1.1.png)
Your entry

If you have all that, have checked for content and grammar, then it is good to go!

Your discord username is brilliantdarkness, just so you know 🙂

There's a link in both #dex-entries-submissions and in the pinned messages to submit

[coral crypt]

Yep! My default display name was my real name so that’s why it’s GST17 here.

[rich goblet]

Cool, go ahead and submit, I will likely approve or not approve them when tomorrow comes, and they will be added whenever izik does the bulk update

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/raichu+combusken/

Anything I should add?

[rich goblet]

More.

[rancid sun]

Well yeah I know that lol

[coral crypt]

Combusken’s Heat kicks Raichu’s generator into overdrive, so it’s moving to get rid of the electricity is how I read that mix of entries

[rancid sun]

I already submitted it but that can be added

Can't it?

[rich goblet]

@rancid sun What is it you want to add?

[rancid sun]

Nvm I can put that in my Raichu/Blaziken entry

[coral crypt]

submitted all my entries so far!

[coral crypt]

if you need inspiration, something like this maybe?
"POKENAME’s internal combustion and slender frame generate high currents throughout its body. As a result, it is constantly in motion, discharging excess electricity through fast, flowing kicks."

[rancid sun]

👍

[rancid sun]

I'm doing this for Pikachu/Blaziken since Raichu/Blaziken already has an entry

Added!

[regal cedar]

Why are there multiple people trying to pretend to be MandJTV in the server? Jeez.

[coral crypt]

huh?

what do you mean by that

[regal cedar]

Several people in the server trying to have that username in here. And in the sheet, apparently.

[coral crypt]

that's bizarre

I just noticed three of my entries I submitted have it/they issues, how would I edit those? Sorry for the inconvenience

[hollow nimbus]

If the entries have already been reviewed and processed in the sheet, then you can make a report in #custom-dex-errors

[coral crypt]

no they haven't been reviewed yet

[rich goblet]

Then they will be fixed by the unown who goes through them.

Only after the initial unown check should you make a custom dex error report

Unless if it is a file number error or you just want to cancel it

[coral crypt]

noted, fortunately it should be a simple fix. I'm more so annoyed I didn't catch it the first time

[coral crypt]

May I dm an unown about an issue I noticed in the sheet? I would prefer to not make it a big deal in public here

[rich goblet]

I'm an Unown, go right ahead.

I'll relay to the rest of the team.

[severe scroll]

Hey @rich goblet , I would like your opinion on an entry my friend wrote. It's over the character limit and needs some structure and proper wording, but I love what they're going for.

Ninevoir (38.287a)
The Ninevoir are rather snobby, Normally not answering to their trainers. But with some encouragement (And Flattery). These Loyal Fire/Fairy type are a force to be reckoned with. Most carrying the heat of a Dying star. While still carrying its elegant nature.

[rich goblet]

Saying that it is loyal the sentence after it says they do not answer to their Trainer does not make sense if they are being so difficult. I would fix it to be more consistent

[severe scroll]

Snobby and proud by nature, POKENAME care more about their own interests over given commands. However, when a strong bond is formed through encouragement and flattery, POKENAME will fight for them with elegance and the heat of a dying star.

[rich goblet]

The only other thing to note that if you're having your friend help writing them is that the entries still need to work on TOS. If this is a one time thing that's fine but if they plan to contribute often they should join the server

[severe scroll]

Of course! They just like Gardevoir and I encouraged them to attempt to write an entry. : ) Thank you for understanding.

[hexed fog]

@quiet anvil Please do not caps your name during submissions

[quiet anvil]

Like my discord username? And sorry, I know I just submitted a ton 😅

[hexed fog]

It should be atlas3339098

no A

[quiet anvil]

Can do 👍 and sorry again

[hexed fog]

it's an easy fix

just letting you know lol

that way I dont have to KEEP doing it lol

@signal cobalt Please dont caps your username during submissions

[hexed fog]

Floral List is up!

grass mons are easy, enjoy the break

[coral crypt]

made a typo with the file name for a submission, should I report that error in #custom-dex-errors
the pins say that channel is just for approved entries

[rich goblet]

Reread the first pinned message, it will tell you

[coral crypt]

gotcha, I saw that message as well, I wanted to double check before posting. Thanks!

[coral crypt]

does this mean that the chomp list is finished / unnecessary? I wrote some entries from those earlier today

[hollow quartz]

you writing entries contributed to the list's completion--whenever an entry is submitted for one of those on the list, the respective sprite will be "checked off" so to speak

[coral crypt]

oh, I didn't submit any of them, I always write on a google doc before submitting. When I used control f on the spreadsheet to see if anyone else had written entries for the numbers on the list, it kept turning up 0 results, so I thought nobody had

[hollow quartz]

ah, well then most likely someone else submitted entries after you had checked

[simple lynx]

should I make a entry?

[hollow quartz]

All are welcome and encouraged to provide entries so long as they follow canon and follow the FAQ, last I knew

[simple lynx]

I made like 20 entries a few months ago

[coral crypt]

yep, I see them now. Darn, I kinda liked those ones, ah well, will be quicker next time

[rancid sun]

Did one of the Gulpin fusion!

[hexed fog]

chomp list has pending entries for each mon 🙂

the moment theres a pending entry it gets removed from the list

[rich goblet]

You can still submit the entries!

You just cannot have an multiple entries of the same author on a sprite, and the artist who made the sprite gets priority if they submit an entry, but otherwise the entry is still appreciated

Oh my GOD these bots are getting aggressive

I can't be the only one seeing this

[thorn ingot]

You’re not I saw it too

Bot burst

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/torchic+roselia/ Leaving this one for a fellow Torchic fan @severe scroll

[coral crypt]

is the concept behind this one okay? I don't think it crosses any lines, but want to confirm

can replace "pose a threat" with "are a nuisance" if the language is a bit too direct

[rancid sun]

Nuiscance seems better

[rich goblet]

This is perfectly fine as is, minus any grammar changes I can't spot right away

pose a threat is fine, the line is drawn at describing harm

Like gouging eyeballs or blood and gore, those are hard lines

[willow venture]

What's next on the boost

Maybe I'll try writing a lot of a Ralts line lol

[hexed fog]

Who knows?

We did Ralts bodies already 😛

[coral crypt]

Submitted these ones for the Floral List

[willow venture]

Damn...

[abstract fog]

Extremely late entry, but I'm sure it's still 21 somewhere in the world. "^-^

April Dexchallenge day 21: "Seed"
Ekern #23.191

As they age, POKENAME grow a seed; when danger is near, they recoil inside and seal it like a bundle. When a POKENAME grows too big to fit inside its seed, a new one will grow, in the same way they shed their skin.

I feel like there's something off about how I wrote it lol

[dusty hound]

To lure in prey, POKENAME spins around gracefully like a dancer, releasing a sweet aroma. Once its prey draws near, it strikes with its thorny, poison-laced whips. ``` 

```Hitmonrade #107.352 
POKENAME's right glove has fast acting poison and the left has slow acting. By alternating its rapid strikes, it drags the effect of both toxins, disorienting its opponents. ```  

```Hitmonrade #106.352 

Using its springlike legs POKENAME gracefully chase down its prey, slipping by obstacles with ease. it then catches its prey with its thorny, poison-laced whips. binding them before finishing them off```

"thorny poison laced thorns" is a bit of a mouth full so if theres a better way say it then please tell me

Other than that I think they are good but feedback is always welcomed

[storm light]

thorny, poison-laced whips. The punctuation helps slow it down a bit

For the last one, I'd remove the "can" since it's a lil unnecessary. These are research reports after all, confidence in findings is key!

[dusty hound]

Thank you for the feedback!

[storm light]

[storm light]

We need some more entries about Pokemon that help rescue teams of all kinds find and help people/Pokemon who are injured/lost/otherwise in distress! ✏️

[soft flicker]

ooo ive seen a doodle on tumblr about rescue-Pokemon Absol. Ill see if i can find a fitting fusion

[willow venture]

Time to force myself to write Blissey fusions lmao

[dusty hound]

April Dexchallenge Day 22:

Hitmonto #106.140

POKENAME dates back 300 million years ago. Researchers believe that it uses it's long legs to scuttle along the ocean floor, allowing it to quickly flee predators.

[azure wagon]

April Dexchallenge Day 22: type

Soltei #545.244
POKENAME absorbs sunlight into its body, causing its rocky mane to shimmer intensely. In battle, it attacks by cloaking itself in scorching flames before charging towards foes.

[strong flame]

Ohey, one of mine. I like the entry.

[fair loom]

Looks so goofy I love it 😭

[hexed fog]

@uneven heart Please get your entries reviewed here before submitting more due to multiple errors.

[uneven heart]

Alright. Which entries should I have reviewed?

[regal cedar]

Hmm?

https://docs.google.com/spreadsheets/d/1JOqitOP72D-s_es1-F7OzVPUkKJ3tytjfvhptx1KAK8/edit?gid=436149667#gid=436149667&range=C14269

This used to be accepted, I thought. I know it won't show up because the spriter's entry exist, but AFAIK, it still got accepted (for instance, in case the writer wanted their entries pulled).

Did we start denying those?

[hexed fog]

the spriter's entry exists and they take priority. it's to avoid it being an issue on the sites

[regal cedar]

Yes.

Did we start denying these recently?

[hexed fog]

we were technically /always/ supposed to deny them

but they got missed, often

thats why we had the failsafe

[regal cedar]

OK.

[hexed fog]

@kind heart please dont caps your username when putting entries. why not get your entries reviewed here before submitting?

Lazy List is up yall

[kind heart]

ah! my bad, apologies

I will get peer review here for future attempts! I admittedly submitted this first one just on a whim after seeing the sprite in game. Thanks for the ping!

[hexed fog]

just for a few, it helps with easy errors getting shilled out

I'll let you know if it's ever required, yours looks fine atm

[dusty hound]

Catching up on April Dexchallenge 18-21:

POKENAME's movements resembles a fluid dance, its petals shifting into vibrant colors like a disco light show. While dancing, it delivers precise kicks in time with its movements before its opponents can react. ```

```Ludirogue #497.236
Trainers know to help POKENAME train by playing festive music, which helps it fill its muscles with energy. It then trains with its dance like fighting style.``` 

```Bulee #400.106
After winter, POKENAME's bud opens as it stretches its long legs after enduring the long winter. As it moves, it spreads pollen that induces harsh sneezing and runny noses.``` 

```Tycute #236.102
POKENAME is made up of several seed like heads that constantly train by striking one another. They continue until only one remains standing, waiting for the others to recover before training again```

As always feedback is welcomed

[rich goblet]

Bulee #400.106
As it moves, it spreads pollen that causes harsh sneezing and runny noses.

@dusty hound

You could also say induces or brings about

EDIT: The rest are fine

[kind heart]

Okay first attempt at getting feedback, here goes

POKENAME can be seen when storms gather, especially places previously struck by lightning. They group up and balance out each other's electric charge by rubbing their long tails together.```

If it gets the okay I'll submit it soon!

[rich goblet]

Original
POKENAME can be seen during storms gathering around places struck by lightning. They group up and balance out each other's electric charge by rubbing their long tails together.

Revised Version
POKENAME can be seen when storms gather, especially places previously struck by lightning. They group up and balance each other's electrical charge by rubbing their long tails together.

[kind heart]

I shall make the change!

[dusty hound]

The only reason I used the word include is because is budew’s entrie it uses that phrase but I change it for better phrasing

[rich goblet]

It is a well-known phenomenon that PIF entries are more strict than Nintendo

[dusty hound]

[rancid sun]

The darkest I can think of is SLurkoal's entry

[willow venture]

Reason Nintendo is the worst game company #39913

[vernal beacon]

do ya'll prefer us get the feedback here, or just submit and let you guys adjust?

[rich goblet]

Feedback here is best, that way we don’t had to swap between the sheet and discord

It is especially helpful if you are a new author

[vernal beacon]

gotcha!

[rancid sun]

Sent a few entries without discussing them first

But they went through OK

[rich goblet]

I still recommend it, it helps ensure that entries meet the standards for approval

[storm light]

yall ever find a pokemon you thought for sure you wrote an entry for only to find out you did, but never submitted it

[thorn ingot]

No because I always write my entries on the form

[storm light]

well most of the ones i'm finding of mine are from when i was still newer to dex writing and just forgot about. I'm lookin to fix em up and toss them in the pile

[gloomy vapor]

i found a pkm without a dex entry

[storm light]

there's quite a lot of them

you'd also be surprised to hear that not all the pokemon have custom sprites /j

[thorn ingot]

about 3/4 (I think) are undexed infact

[formal lance]

i need a kirlia fusion

you guys have any?

[thorn ingot]

To write a dex entry for?

[storm light]

https://www.fusiondex.org/kirlia+flygon/

[formal lance]

no

just making a team

[thorn ingot]

Then why are you in this channel

[formal lance]

idk

[thorn ingot]

Go to the right channel then

[storm light]

What Pokemon is it?

[gloomy vapor]

oricorio and cleffa

[storm light]

Maybe you could make an entry for them! Check out the pins for writing tips and some of the most common FAQ

no pressure of course, we love seeing new writers :)

POKENAME roam to collect Poké Balls, storing them within there body. Moderate vibrations cause these Pokémon to explode, scattering everything they gathered. They capture wild Pokémon by accident.

Feedback is appreciated if it’s ok I will submit the entry

[dusk viper]

Oh I dig that! That's a good reason for it to have so many :O

[coral crypt]

something to keep in mind is to generally avoid words like "may" or "can" unless you're describing a quantitative metric. (It can grow up to x..). The entries are published after the researchers (the author) are confident in them 🙂

at least in my opinion

[magic wave]

I edited the wording better? #dex-entries-discussion message

[coral crypt]

hm, maybe describe what vibrations (high frequency, high energy) cause it to explode instead of using "vibrations can"

[coral crypt]

wording looks better ! just fix your tenses / plurality and you should be good. (I screw this up too still)

[magic wave]

Any mistake left? (grammar spelling) English isn’t my native language.

#dex-entries-discussion message

[coral crypt]

POKENAME roams --> POKENAME roam (POKENAME refers to the species as a whole, so it's plural)
Moderate Vibration --> Moderate Vibrations
"This Pokemon" --> These Pokemon (You started off using plural, this is to be consistent)
"it has gathered" --> They gather. (You want to keep everything in present tense, since you're describing repetitive behavior. They instead of "it" as well)
"It captures" --> They capture. (Plurality)

[magic wave]

Thanks a lot

[gloomy vapor]

i found a pkm without a dex entry

[storm light]

There are hundreds of Pokemon without entries, you don't need to tell us about it. If you'd like though, you can write one for it as long as it follows the guidelines

[gloomy vapor]

ok

[coral crypt]

the Slakoth ones are fun

[pale venture]

Genrow #94.21
The cries of POKENAME are unsettling, which are able to echo no matter their location. Kantonian folktales say that hearing a POKENAME's echo three times in a single day will create a shadow that mirrors your movements.

(Also hi I'm back)

Mimile #373.531
POKENAME frequently get attached to Trainers and other Pokémon, following them and cheering them on endlessly. While these cheers power their target, people often find them unnerving, with reports of POKENAME even following them to their home.

Another one for the road

[small nest]

"Which" in the first sentence seems to imply that the unsettling-ness is what echoes. You could change the first bit to "POKENAME releases unsettling cries," or remove "which are."

[pale venture]

Ah, I added "Which are" to try be grammatically accurate, apparently I was too cautious

I already submitted unfortunately, but I'll keep it in mind in the future, thank you

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/drifloon+slakoth/

Made a start

[rancid sun]

Maybe I'll say that they can be found in all sorts of places due to their aimless floating

[acoustic scarab]

Could maybe lean into it being like a balloon? Something like POKENAME spend their days sleeping in the highest branches of trees. They sometimes lose their grip and end up floating skyward where strong winds blow them to new forests?

I find Slakoth to be a more comedic Mon, so I tend to lean into that a little with them

[coral crypt]

My first thought with that one is reversing Drifloon’s entries. Drifloon is all about taking children away, maybe children find it floating aimlessly and drifkoth gets taken around

[acoustic scarab]

That's a cute idea too

[hollow quartz]

2 left on the list, that drifloon one and the lotad one

[coral crypt]

Is the list just aiming to fill out entries for Hoenn mons

[hollow quartz]

The true aims of the list are knwon by the Unown, I imagine

But so far the lists have been for Hoenn mons

[rich goblet]

The lists are "priority" in the sense they are preferred and lead to some goal, but you can write for any sprite really

[hollow quartz]

-# like me rn using the infinitedummies thing to show me random sprites without entries since i got nothing for that lotad/slakoth sprite in my mind

[rancid sun]

Did the Drifloon one!

[dusty hound]

Hitmonkoth #106.385

POKENAME spends most of the day loafing around. its springlike legs allows it to move great distances, but instead it uses them to pluck from trees when it gets hungry.

[rancid sun]

OH COME ON

[coral crypt]

came up with this, it was difficult to find a way to treat it as a single species with a sprite like that

[coral crypt]

submitted, the list is now complete

[rancid sun]

A bot came in

They usually do

Inknow

[rich goblet]

Bots do that from time to time, I'm just glad it gets deleted before it does harm

[thorny crescent]

EVIL. SOBBING AND CRYING. MY POOR GUY

theyre all so fire thank u guyse,,

[dusty hound]

I don't know if I need to ping somone with a unknown role but theres a typo on a entry thats on the website

[rich goblet]

They can only exist because you made them@thorny crescent

We're very happy that you've made these sprites 😄

[dusty hound]

[thorny crescent]

SOBBBBBBB

[rich goblet]

Oh, that would go in #custom-dex-errors

[regal cedar]

I feel like I use the term "sparks fly everywhere" a lot

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/bagon+electrike/ https://www.fusiondex.org/budew+electrike/ Think I'll do these two later

Electrike seriously needs more custom sprites

[hexed fog]

Fe List is up!

[thorn ingot]

[rich goblet]

Iron I think? Maybe?

[thorn ingot]

Oh fe as in iron

[harsh oriole]

If a sprite of mine has an existing custom dex entry written by somebody else and I submit a new one, will the existing one be overwritten? I seem to remember when the custom entries launched that spriters got priority on their own sprites but idk if that's changed.

[rich goblet]

Spriter's entry will always override other entries.

@hexed fog @hollow nimbus

I would reach out to one of these two Dex-Managers to do that

[hexed fog]

We get a list from Snrasha after each update that removes the other entry

spriters have priority

no action is required

[rich goblet]

Oh

Well there we go, just write an entry and get it approved

[final briar]

catch up time bc I want to try and finish this!
Day 18: Lurantis line
Fomagius #476.255
POKENAME uses the power of their incantations to help withered gardens grow beautifully. For this reason, they are commonly partnered with Pokémon Rangers to help restore natural environments that were destroyed from fierce battles.

shoutout to the rangers

[storm light]

Probably its -> their to keep consistency

[final briar]

thanks!

Day 19: Lotad Line
497.97 Ludino
This swamp-dwelling Pokémon enjoys showing up at lively festivals. If it sees someone in a foul mood there, it utilizes its hypnosis to encourage them to dance with it.

Hypno is sometimes used in horror so I wanted to do like, yokai/fey type vibes. I wanted to maybe include something about the person passing out from exhaustion before the Ludino was tired of dancing but I thought that sounded a bit too EdGY/creepypasta-esque so I left it vague

Day 20: "Pollen"
Rosesaur #401.3
A POKENAME is very proud of its large roses. It is coveted in grass-type fan clubs. Its pollen is used in high-end, rose-scented perfumes.

[coral crypt]

I like that one!

should be high-end though

[final briar]

thanks!

[coral crypt]

also small thing, I think "will utilize" should be "utilizes." I like using present tense always, even after a hypothetical because the pokedex entries describe repeated behavior. Future tense reads kinda like a one time reaction versus a repeated reaction.

[coral crypt]

also "A POKENAME." The rest of the entry is singular so that should change for consistency

[final briar]

Day 21: "Seed"
Geolow #74.514
This cantankerous bird Pokémon fiercely guards its mountainside territory. Its diet consists of both gravel and seeds— it doesn't seem to be able to tell the difference.

[coral crypt]

Is using "Whale Fall" fine or should it be "Wailord Fall"

[final briar]

Day 22: Rock Type
Darkcanth #347.565
This ancient fish Pokémon swims at some of the deepest depths, where no light can pierce the murky water. Because of this, it is very sensitive to sunlight. Scientists just recently discovered it.

I say recently discovered bc irl we are still discovering deep sea fish to this day from newer, better technology

Day 23: "Radiant"
Umbfable #197.36
Sitting and observing the moon at night is a very important ritual to POKENAME and its kin. When the moon is new, small Clefairy and Cleffa will gather around the radiant light of this Pokémon's markings and tail to get a similar effect.

[dusty hound]

You just gave me a good idea for radiant

[regal cedar]

@ruby wadi , remember to not capitalize your username when entering into the sheet. In addition, remember that the plural version of a Pokémon's name is still the exact same as the singular. In this case, Gengar should still be Gengar.

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/zigzagoon+aron/

[rich goblet]

You could mention how it zigzags around like it does in the main game

[rancid sun]

I plan to do that 🙂

I'm also gonna do some entries for the WIngull fusions seen in the April Fools video

I've already done so for Wingull/Riolu

[true walrus]

Sheeesh @hexed fog 8,000+ dex entries is crazy and impressive

[hexed fog]

Lol did i finally hit 8k

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/authors/ I'm #104

[rigid finch]

i'm 15 below you

[rancid sun]

I see you like Quagsire lol

[thorn ingot]

What could’ve given you that idea

[rancid sun]

https://www.fusiondex.org/quagsire+aron/ Since we've got the Fe list to do I'm letting you do this one

[true walrus]

You been did brochacho

[storm light]

Gimmie some entries about Pokemon that wrestlers might model their moves after (Try going for mons that aren't the Fighting type!)

[rich goblet]

https://www.fusiondex.org/bellsprout+poliwag/

POKENAME hops onto its swirled belly and swipes with its leafy tail to sweep foes off their feet. This swift motion is copied by many professional wrestling and is known as “The POKENAME Sweep”.

What do you think?
