use {{padleft:{{{5}}}|3|0}} as sort key, because {{{6}}} is missing on some entries --Hanmac 10:33, 4 March 2010 (UTC)
- It was meant to default to {{{5}}} if {{{6}}} was missing (I only left it out on the three-digit entries), but your one probably works better. —darklordtrom 08:30, 5 March 2010 (UTC)
Mistake
Nice mistake, for gen VII one cycle is 257, not 256.--Dominikololo (talk) 16:26, 7 October 2017 (UTC)

Update for SWSH, BDSP, and SV mechanics
Hatch cycles last 128 steps in SWSH and SV, but 255 in BDSP. Reference 1 Reference 2 Reference 3
This means that we need the List of Pokémon by base Egg cycles corrected/updated, and the infoboxes for all the SWSH and SV compatible species updated as well. I went to start fixing them by hand, but found it was using this template (which thankfully can fix a lot of it at once), but it's protected (which means I have to ask someone who knows how this template works/has access to fix it).
