But I, along with several others, think that the infobox needs an upgrade. Yes, it's 5000 cards to upgrade. I know. It sucks. But the information's all there, all that needs to be done is the upgrading of said information to fit in better. It's not like the exhaustive search that had to be done in ''making'' these things.

I think it would be really useful if there was a link somewhere here to the Pokémon shown on the card's species page.

:We need to see whether or not this is a distinct class of cards that has any actual gameplay difference or not first. Additionally, it is significantly important to take everything into consideration before adding a ton of bells and whistles to our templates. This new type of card is officially named ''Ultra Beast GX'', not "Red GX", so we will have to double back and correct any fanmade terms used on the articles before moving forward with any more additions.

Blissey-ex UF and Scizor-ex UF evolve from one of two different Pokemon - should there be an optional evoname2 field to handle this?

== Suggestion: We should add a "Retreat Cost" category to the template == | |||
Basically implementing a "Pokémon cards with Retreat Cost of 0/1/2/3/4" category on the template, which can be toggled by inputting the appropriate number in the "retreatcost=" query. I think Retreat Cost categs are a really useful thing to have on the wiki, especially since we have quite a handful of cards that work based on Retreat Costs (eg. {{TCG ID|Astral Radiance|Feather Ball|141}}, {{TCG ID|Next Destinies|Heavy Ball|88}}, {{TCG ID|Pokémon Card 151|Onix|95}}).

== M Pokémon EX isn't official, change to Mega Evolution == | |||
Exactly what it says on the tin. Turns out, the EX-ness of all Mega Evolution Pokemon is merely implied. Card text, the rulebook, and the glossary insist that the term is Mega Evolution Pokémon, and Mega Evolution Pokémon-EX, while used, is likely a mistake. This means that [[Template:PokémoncardInfobox/EvomegaEX]] is displaying the wrong thing. It says "M Pokémon-EX". So this is the request to change that over [[User:Salmancer|Salmancer]] ([[User talk:Salmancer|talk]]) 15:43, 3 March 2024 (UTC) | |||
Alright, lets try this again. Let's put all the proverbial cards on the table, so that we come to an accurate conclusion. | |||
Every Pokemon card has to have a stage. But... what are those stages called? Back in the Neo and E-card, cards printed "[Stage] Pokemon" in the stage field, and this wiki went with this kind of naming for cards. Evolution cards additionally printed just "[Stage]" We can see many examples, and we'll copy them into this page so that everyone can verify. | |||
{| class="wikitable" | |||
|+ Neo & E card | |||

! Meganium (Expedition) !! Flaaffy (Aquapolis) !! Slugma (Neo Revelation) !! Cleffa (Neo Genesis) | |||
|- | |||
| Stage 2 || Stage 1 || N/A || N/A | |||
|- | |||
| Stage 2 Pokemon || Stage 1 Pokemon || Basic Pokemon || Baby Pokemon | |||
|} | |||
For convenience's sake, let's call the first of these, "short name Stage" and the second, "long name Stage". But more commonly (as in, in every other series), Stages on the cards are printed only using the "short name Stage", "[Stage]" no matter if it is an Evolution card or not. While not a traditional stage, this argument is supposed to be about Mega Evolution cards from XY, so we'll throw two of them and one Primal here for comparison. | |||
{| class="wikitable" | |||
|+ Other series | |||
|- | |||
! Alakazam (Base Set) !! Whiscash (EX Deoxys) !! Milcery (Rebel Clash) !! (Archen (Noble Victories) !! M Heracross EX !! M Mawile-EX !! Primal Groudon-EX | |||
|- | |||
| Stage 2 || Stage 1 || Basic || Restored || MEGA || MEGA || MEGA | |||
|} | |||
(The cards of Mega and Primal Pokemon have the same stage, but there are two different templates. The one for Mega, [[Template:PokémoncardInfobox/EvomegaEX]] says M Pokémon-EX and the one for Primal, [[Template:PokémoncardInfobox/EvoprimalEX]] says "Primal Pokémon-EX". But... they're the same stage. We'll get back to this.) | |||
But but, long name Stage is still seen when card text references the stages of card. See these examples for both non-Mega and Mega cases: | |||

|} | |||
Our card infoboxes use "long term stage" in all cases, even though that's not what is on actual cards. For instance, [[Template:PokémoncardInfobox/Evostage1]] reads "Stage 1 Pokémon". But it is still in one sense correct, as per these effects calling by for "long term stage". These are infoboxes for specific objects though, so I would actually favor using "short term stage" for them, since that's what is on the card object. But this is a tangent. | |||
(Given this, also it's kind funky that [[Template:TCG Evolution]] displays Baby Pokemon as "Baby Pokemon" but every other stages as just "[Stage]", like "Basic" and "Stage 1". Considering long name Stage still exists for every stage, we might as well use the long term in this navigation box. There clearly isn't a maximum width (see Anime characters) and wiki favors consistency (see swapping decklist card type indications from "Tool" to "PT".) But this is also a tangent.) | |||
Now back to the topic, [[Template:PokémoncardInfobox/EvomegaEX]]. Neither Pokemon cards nor cards referencing stages use "M Pokémon-EX". That's what's in the infobox, but it doesn't line up with "short term Stage" or "long term Stage". It also fails a text search on Pkmncards. I checked TCG Live, there's simply no equivalent there; only a filter for the "MEGA" stage. | |||
Additionally, there are two rulings from the Compendium which point out that Mega Turbo and Faded Town affect the Primal Pokemon as well, since they have the same stage. ([https://compendium.pokegym.net/ruling/1088/ here] and [https://compendium.pokegym.net/ruling/1003/ here]) This indicates that Mega Turbo and Faded Town are indeed checks on the Stage of a Pokemon, because how else do these cards function as per the rules? It can't be a name check, because Primal cards don't share name structure. It also probably isn't a check against the internal evolution chain list, because these cards don't say "evolves" anywhere on them. So for these cards to work, cards depicting Mega Evolution and Primal Reversion must have the same Stage. Which is "MEGA" or "Mega Evolution Pokemon", as per their cards. | |||
All of this is to say that the name of the Stage in [[Template:PokémoncardInfobox/EvomegaEX]] should be the "long term Stage" of "MEGA", which is "Mega Evolution Pokemon". And the same goes for [[Template:PokémoncardInfobox/EvoprimalEX]]. (How did that get "Primal Pokemon-EX" anyway!? Like, the cards say MEGA on them, why in the world would their Stage not include the phrase "Mega" somewhere in it? I can only assume people were not paying attention.) (Cards referencing Mega Evolution Pokemon did only start coming out after the initial sets, but it's been nearly a decade since. At some point, it would have made sense to double back and confirm things.) [[User:Salmancer|Salmancer]] ([[User talk:Salmancer|talk]]) 13:33, 9 March 2024 (UTC) | |||
