According to this page, both original and Alolan Meowth now yield Special Defense EVs instead of Speed EVs. I saw similar changes on the pages for Persian, Ponyta, and Corsola.
Is it possible to verify this? I think it's more likely that the data was misread instead of these various Pokemon now having their Special Defense and Speed EV yields be swapped.
Ponyta is listed as evolving at Lv.38 instead of Lv.40 for both Kantonian and Galarian forms. Is this a mistake or did they change the level it evolves at?
I used Bulbasaur's Egg Move page because it's the first Pokemon in numerical order, but I saw this error on other Egg Move pages as well, leading me to believe all of the Egg Move pages have this error - specifically only for Gen 8 pages, however, as I just checked a Gen 7 Egg Move page and the links on that page are not broken.
Not an error per se, but I couldn't help but notice the lack of romanized Gen VIII Japanese Pokemon names in the Sword & Shield Pokedex. Might I suggest the following?
Due to some changes in evolution methods, I no longer think Eevee needs affection to become Sylveon.
I once had to cover up Baby Doll Eyes with a TM so Eevee could properly evolve into Espeon.
I only used camp into order to access the curry mini-game.
Edit: After some experimentation, it seems that it could be friendship based, as I would feed them a bunch of candies, and I could get Espeon and Sylveon at the same level, which each Eeveelution depends on if Eevee knows a Fairy move.
And basically any attack Toxtricity can learn is listing Toxtricity two times, one with the correct icon and number, and another with the number "#678" (Meowstic?) and a broken icon.
Was checking out recent updates to some mechanic pages. Saw a few errors. Hopefully this is the right spot.
On the Type Changing page, Mimicry, Galarian Stunfisk's new ability, is not listed.
In the Critical Hits page, Blaze Kick, Karate Chop, Poison Tail, Razor Wind, Sky Attack, and the brand new Snipe Shot are all not listed.
I have a Pokeearth correction to report for Sword/Shield.
TM45 is currently listed in the main area of Route 9 on Pokearth, with no details given.
TM45 is found in the Circhester Bay area of Route 9, on a small beech area in the west end of the map, given to you by the girl there.
The Evolutionary Chain section for Zigzagoon, Linoone and Obstagoon contains a minor typographical error; there's a superfluous ">" at the top of the section.
Gardevoir cannot be found during Thunderstorm weather. The wandering Gardevoir in Lake of Outrage is only available in normal weather and Fog. This spot is replaced by Shiinotic during a Thunderstorm.
Galarian Slowpoke's measurements are missing. According to the official website, the height is 3 foot 11 inches or 1.2 metres, and weight is 79.4 lbs or 36.0 kg (so same measurements as regular Slowpoke). Slowpoke also doesn't show up in the S-Z list on the top of the Sword-Shield dex pages.
Not so much an error as it is missing information. There is a wandering Orbeetle that spawns in the Dappled Grove. I think it might not spawn until you get to a certain point in the game. It spawns in overcast weather at least, but I think it spawns in other weather as well.
Shattered Psyche is shown on Roselia's page, but the icon displays it as a physical move rather than a special move even though it's based on Extrasensory.
