Mistakes on Serebii.net V2

Lord Fighting

Bank Ball Collector
On pokemon go community day page the next one is litten yet chansey has been written there accidentally even linking to chanseys pokedex page when it should link to Litten
 

Captain Jigglypuff

*On Vacation. Go Away!*
On the Pokemon Emerald Gym Leaders page (https://www.serebii.net/emerald/gym.shtml), Norman's Vigoroth and Slaking are listed as having "Feint Attack" as one of their moves. This should be listed as "Faint Attack" (60 power Dark-type move). Which is learned by Slakoth (or Slaking) at level 19. Not to be confused with the move "Feint" (50 power Normal-type move), which wasn't introduced until generation 4.

That’s not really a mistake. The attack has been spelled both ways in the games.

Ah, I did not know that!
I originally thought it was just a misspelling, but I did just discover that clicking any of the attacks on that page does not take you to a proper Attackdex page. Not sure if the links are outdated or if that is just not an intended feature anymore. Regardless, thank you for the insight.

Queen Cynthia

Dignified Queen of Sinnoh
This week's Pokemon of the Week entry about Milotic on the main page says it was "introduced in the ninth generation", while in fact it was the third generation
 
In the “Galar Mine 2” section of the sword and shield walkthrough there are two mistakes. Binacle is only listed as being available in Sword (in both places), when in fact it is also available in shield as well.

Section:
Buena's Password - Goldenrod City

After you have received the Blue Card from Buena's Assistant, at several points through the day (2am, 5am, 8am, 11pm, 2pm, 5pm, 8pm, 11pm), Buena's Password radio show will give out a question. You then need to go to Goldenrod's Radio Tower and meet Buena and give her the answer. She will give you three choices and if you select the correct one, you will receive points that you can later exchange form prizes


The times should read 2am, 5am, 8am, 11am, 2pm, 5pm, 11pm.

The error is two "11pm" instead of an "11am"
 

Ignition

Live freely
The banner listed on the latest Masters update is wrong. The next triple feature is Lysandre/Yveltal, Emma/Crobat, and Classic Elesa/Emolga. The one with SS Red/Charizard, SS Hilda/Victini, and SS May/Blaziken (not May and Latias as listed) drops on April 5th.

Serebii, who has an IQ of 189, still has a mistake in the cardex. https://serebii.net/card/dex/ Incorrectly spelled Dipplin's evolution as Hydrapplin in the scroll-down menu. Is actually Hydrapple. But on its page correctly spelled Hydrapple.

According to this page, you need to catch Latias and Latios to gain access to the Rainbow Slate, the Oceanic Slate, the Tectonic Slate, the Stratospheric Slate, and the Genome Slate. This is false - I got the Genome Slate, the Squall Slate, the Oceanic Slate, the Tectonic Slate, and the Stratospheric Slate after only catching Articuno, Zapdos, and Moltres in Shining Pearl. I have not verified whether you need to catch Latias and Latios in Brilliant Diamond, but I doubt they would be necessary to get all of the remaining slates in one version but not the other.
