In the Pokearth section for Route 221, the wild Pokemon encounter rates for Pearl don't add up to 100%. Checking other sources, it appears that Gastrodon should have a 30% chance of encounter, not 10%. Also, for Platinum, at night, the encounter rates also don't add up to 100%, with Roselia being only 15%.

Also, a minor error. Desort Resort is mistakenly written as "Resort Desert," while Reversal Mountain is written as "Rebirth Mountain."

Um, you posted Medicham's Pokedex bits instead of Bisharp's on the Pokemon of the week thing on the front page.

Error: The item dex page for the Oval Stone, and likely others, still link to the Rebirth Mountain page, using the pre-localization name for Reversal Mountain. As it turns out, both pages exist--Reversal Mountain is linked through Pokéarth, with up-to-date links to other Unova pages, but the Rebirth links to the older Yamaji Town page. I suspect this may be the case for other Black 2/White 2 exclusive areas.

Links: Oval Stone
Rebirth mountain
Reversal Mountain
Yamaji Town
Lentimas Town

In Bisharp's Pokémon of the Week article, it says that the reason Defiant is such a good ability is that "it allows Bisharp to be one of the few Attackers to be able to switch into Intimidate Pokemon, and get a free Attack boost out of it". However, Intimidate only triggers when the Pokémon with Intimidate switches in, not when Bisharp switches in. The writer has also misunderstood the effect of Assurance (it doubles in power if the target has taken damage that turn, not the user).

This page should be updated with the rest of the recently-revealed Pokemon.

Also, some of the images used on the XY pages seem... ill-fitting?

http://www.serebii.net/xy/characters.shtml

Shauna's associated image is of Skrelp, and Trevor's is a demo battle between Pikachu and Sylveon.

http://www.serebii.net/xy/attacks.shtml

The image for Moonblast doesn't show the animation, just the aftereffects. The image for Noble Roar is Tyranitar in the Pokemon-amie.

For the XY images, you're stuck in your cache. Do a force refresh (Ctrl F5). In order for me to get the pictures up as soon as possible, I just number them 1.jpg+ and then change that a few days later

I had the same thing on the attacks page, force refreshed and now Noble Roar image is there, but the moonblast and parting shot images still don't actually show the move being used.

Parting Shot actually does. Will fix Moonblast

Serebii, under the list of 6th Generation Pokémon. Sylveon is listed as such:
Type: Fairy-type
It would look more uniform if it said:
Type: Fairy
It's a nitpick because it just looks wierd since Flabébé says the latter.

Apologies about the Pancham one, I had a look and that is the best possible shot of the move. Page looks much better now, nice work.

One other slight thing I noticed, just a typo, is on the info page for X & Y: http://serebii.net/xy/
"Pokémon encounters where you fave off against up to 5 Pokémon at once."

Hello! I have noticed some errors on the website.
http://serebii.net/potw-bw/
On the 5th gen pokemon of the week, Durant is listed as Heatmor.

Also, on Kyurem-B's POTW page, the first moveset "Choosing a boundary," a sentence says ". Fusion Bolt gives great coverag, giving Kyurem-B . . ."
Coverage is mispelled there.

That's all! c:

I was on the pokéarth page for team galactic's building in eterna city to find out what levels Jupiter has. I'm playing platinum, but I noticed the following on Diamond/Pearl:

Zubat's attacks:
Giga Drain
Wing Attack
Bite
Wing Attack

http://www.serebii.net/pokearth/sinnoh/eternagalacticbuilding.shtml

I'm pretty confident that pokémon can't know the same move twice, and it appears the zubat should have confuse ray for the fourth move like the platinum one, but I've never played DP, so I am not sure.
