Single or double battles

What about trainers that may be battled either in single or in double battles?Piotr mil 15:41, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

If they are doubled up with another trainer, an example I've done is on Route 115, I've simply taken off the trainerdiv between the two, and added a small comment underneath both of their winnings. -–<×vVvv_v τ^λικ _to ς1^tHςι_4γ3r ^^vVv×>–- 00:01, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Expression error: Unrecognised word "span"

The new trainer exp template is causing some problems with parsing when the level is specified as something like 19{{tt|*|Lv.60 in rematch battles}}, which can result in something like:

Trainer

Pokémon

Gentleman Jeremy
	Gentleman Jeremy Reward: $3800*

	Chatot♂	Lv.19*
	No item

Trainers with a Vs. Seeker by their names, when alerted for a rematch using the item, may use higher-level Pokémon.

I noticed this on Route_212#North_(clear)_area, but the issue could arise in many other places. How should we resolve it? Note that some trainers' Pokémon may level up more than once, and to different levels in different games. For example, this Jeremy guy goes from 19 to 40 to 60 in DP, but levels up differently in Platinum, ending up around 55 or something (don't have the cartridge with me to check). — Laoris _(Blah) 17:35, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

The problem is simply because the trainerexp template uses the level parameter as a number in its calculations, and of course once you put text in, in this case the tt template was used, which uses span tags, then the resulting errors will occur as the text cannot be recognised as numerals thus screwing up the calculation. The only way to avoid this is if comments on rematch battles or anything added to the level parameter are not included. Besides, these Trainer templates should be used to show initial encounters only.

If rematch battle information needs to be included more often, I'll ammend it so comments can be included harmlessly. -–<×vVvv_v τ^λικ _to ς1^tHςι_4γ3r ^^vVv×>–- 23:34, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

I see. I think it would be a good idea to incorporate rematch data somehow when it is available. Is there a parser function that just lets us grab the numerical part of the level parameter and cut off the tt part? — Laoris _(Blah) 23:44, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Adding one more parameter could be easy... ish. TTEchidna 23:45, 9 January 2009 (UTC)

Not that I know of, otherwise I would have definitely used it. I'll check Wikimedia whether there does happen to be one but I doubt it, and chances are it's probably not installed here.

Yea it would be easy... for one row of Pokémon. The more Pokémon there are, the longer it stacks up, then imagine what the mess would be like, with multiple comments everywhere... -–<×vVvv_v τ^λικ _to ς1^tHςι_4γ3r ^^vVv×>–- 00:01, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Edit Request

Bigger font size of Trainer Class; Trainer Classes with definite gender such as Swimmer♂, when changed into smaller font size and bolded, becomes Swimmer♂, the gender sign becomes unclear.. Or is it just me? ►Ҝə υz ø8 14:47, 18 February 2009 (UTC)

Japanese names

Well, what I was trying to do was put a field for Japanese names with the formatting seen there. But for some reason it shows up on everyone and it can't be changed...so...help, please? D:—Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？ (talk • contribs) 09:09, 30 April 2009 (UTC)
