Error: "By attaching Plates to it, Arceus is the only Pokemon that can be of all 17 types and the only Pokemon that can pure Flying-type." Shouldn't it be something like: By attaching Plates to it, Arceus is the only Pokemon that can be of all 17 types and the only Pokemon that can be pure Flying-type.?

Error: Arceus, The Alpha Pokémon. It dwells in volcanic caves. It is described in mythology as the Pokémon that shaped the universe with its 1,000 arms. It is told in mythology that this Pokémon was born before the universe even existed. It is said to have emerged from an egg in a place where there was nothing, then shaped the world.

Since when does Arceus live in the same place as Heatran?

Two things

First, I asked you to not overload me :/ Second, those bios are all the very old style and we're gradually going through and making them the new style of bio so I'm not going to correct those "mistakes" (by mistakes I mean I haven't put the US name in)

I appreciate the time you put into this however. It shows you care :)

Overload? Depends on how you look at it. No one's forcing you to do them all at the same time ;) Also (not to be rude or anything, I'm just asking), you're still updating the bios? It seemed like they'd be given up on for quite some time. Heck, 2/7 of the Frontier Brains still have the old style.

Oh well then, guess I'll cut out the links involving old bios.


EDIT: And not all of the bios are old. These are the newest and some of the easiest to fix:

It's not really to report an error, but it's to tell something to the other members.

The fact that the 3rd gen. Pokédex is named "R/S/C/FR/LG/E Pokédex" on the website is normal. It isn't a mistake.

It stands for "Ruby/Sapphire/Colosseum/Fire-Red/Leaf-Green/Emerald Pokédex."

I'm posting that because I've seen people saying that was a mistake on the previous thread. Just to ensure people don't post saying this is an error.
 
I am not sure if this would be a grammical error but it's kinda more of a typeo so...yeah

Error: I the first sentence of the biography part, you use said Fantina is the Gym Leader of Heathome City City. This is also a grammical error and typeo I'd say but since I am posting this I might as well put it in. At the very end of the biography part you used a / and not a full stop.

I know these are just minor errors and really won't affct anybody but I thought I might aswell make you aware of them :)

On Arceus's pokemon of the week it says that they did "the implied predecessor of all pokemon(and IT'S CLONE)" but there is no 4th gen pokemon of the week for Mewtwo.

http://www.serebii.net/potw-dp/493.shtml
You're reading it the wrong way. The full sentence is:
Well...we've had the creators of continents and oceans, time and space, the implied predecessor to all Pokémon (and its superior clone) and now we have the creator of it all itself, Arceus.
Look at the Bold part. The creators of continents and oceans are quite clearly Groudon & Kyogre. Is there a 4th Gen POTW for them as well? No there is not.

There IS, however, one for them under the old POTW section. Along with Mewtwo.

Error: Just played through Platinum's E4 today. You have a few errors on Bertha. You mixed up Rhyperior's and Hippowdon's levels. Also Bertha's Hippowdon is a girl, although that's a nitpick. This is the first time you face her, I am not sure about the second.

I'm pretty sure that in Pokemon XD, the first trainer in area 2 has a cyndaquill, not a chikorita. Sorry if that's considered old pages.
