This is a list of the '''grammar conventions and syntax''' officially used when describing the [[Pokémon]] series. Bulbapedia should use all of these conventions when relevant—note that quotes should remain the way they are originally and not changed to fit these conventions. Remember that consistency with these conventions is very important, and your cooperation is appreciated.
