3 attacks

Since now sync pairs with 3 attacks are a thing, shouldn't someone edit the template to allow it to have 3 types of attacks?--Zarxiel94 (talk) 08:59, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

Bumping this, Leon only has 2 types displayed right now, whoever has the ability to edit the template should do so. Meanscreen (talk) 06:15, 20 April 2021 (UTC)

Giovanni (Main Universe)?

Since we consider Giovanni from FRLG as possible, I think we also should consider e.g. Hoenn leaders from RSE also possible, because they are from another universe too Asmod96 (talk) 19:41, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

main universe Giovanni appeared in Masters media, for this is considered. RSE Gym Leaders don't--Zarxiel94 (talk) 22:22, 9 March 2021 (UTC)

Interlude 7

Since Lear, Rachel, and Sawyer are playable in Interlude 7, shouldn't they be a part of the list of sync pairs?--ConNix 18:15, 15 March 2021 (UTC)

You can't properly use them... is just for that fight, is like Parker. If we add them we should add Parker too. Another opton is to add them but seprate from the others since the others are actually usable anywhere--Zarxiel94 (talk) 18:27, 15 March 2021 (UTC)

Evolved or not?

Should we use the icon of the evolved form or of their pre-evolved form? I'm absolutly convinced the evolved is the better option. Is far more important gamewise, and is the form where they take their actual sync move and moves, after all, the pre-evolved form is something that stay for so little that is barely important, since you can get so easly evolutionary items now, and people can still see the pre-evolved form from the name. Like for exemple Dusclops -> Dusknoir.
So... yhea, I don't see actual reason to give more importance to a temorary form instead of the definitive one.--Zarxiel94 (talk) 12:33, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

Actually, thinked just now... the evolved form icon is more usefull even because if one day we will get a Pokémon with split evolution and different form, the previous form will not show what he will became. Yhea we can still just write the form name, but I don't think will be efficient like show the image of it. Let's make an exemple. If Paolo will be avaible with Rockruff that evolve into Lycanrock Dusk Form, we will just show Rockruff image, and Rockruff can evolve in any of the 3 forms. But if we show Dusk Lycanroc, then there is no confusion, because Dusk Lycanroc just have Rockruff as pre-evo. I mean, exist branched evos, but not branched pre-evo. If you know the final evo, you know even the pre-evo without need of read, but if you just know the pre-evo, you can not know the evo without reading. So, showing the final evo will:
  • Show the form more relevant gamewise
  • Show the definitive form instead of a temporary one that players will just evolved a bit after obtained it
  • Will be more efficient in the case we will get Pokémon that have branched evolutions (like the exemple of Paolo), and the image will be more of impact since just seeing the image you will already know what you will get without read anything, making it more efficient

So yhea... there is no true reason to leave the pre-evo image, if someone don't know if a Pokémon heva a pre-evo and take Dusclops for exemple, just the fact that here is showed Dusknoir will tell him Dusclops can evolve in a more direct and fast way, resulting so a lot more efficient. --Zarxiel94 (talk) 12:46, 25 April 2021 (UTC)

While I'm not strongly inclined as to which image we show, ideally the pre-evo image is the best one to show. Firstly, the list should show how the sync pairs are obtained (i.e. with their base form), and this corresponds with how they are presented in the Dex and Sync Pair Scout. Additionally, players may choose not to evolve their Pokémon, and thus showing the evolved form will not reflect what everyone will have. Also, how easy it is evolve them, and how relevant they are to gameplay (strength etc.) are not parameters we should be taking into account here. Even if Paulo were to be obtained as a sync pair with Rockruff, I don't think it'll be confusing to the reader as to which form it evolves into (plus this is only a hypothetical scenario regardless).
