To be honest, I only really wanted the modified section to be on [[:Category:Cards by Pokémon|these pages]]. I don't really find the modified silver background to appropriate on any of the other pages using {{template|cardlist/header}}. (I never really intended for that series of table templates to be used anywhere else. I'm pretty sure the "char=Yes" option was added just to ''make'' it work elsewhere, when I kind of wanted to create something different.) With it being used on pages currently, like [[Brock]], [[Misty]], [[Team Rocket]], etc, I do believe adding in the modified pushed those rather large pages extremely close to their template limits, and they might very well soon break. {{u|Werdnae}} has been revamping templates as much as he can in order to lessen the problems, and actually cautioned me about how the modified addition might become a problem if it is used too much. It might be time that we end up creating a new set of table templates more appropriate for use on character/item/place pages' "In the TCG" sections.

:The "char=Yes" was added to save creating another template that would more or less do the same as the cardlist one. While I do like the template as a concise visual summary, it does become a bit jarring with many reprints, like on the [[Cheren#In the TCG|Cheren]] article.

::I personally don't really think things like rarity and card no. are completely important when telling about the subject's role within the card game. I made an edit to [[Pal_Pad#In_the_TCG|Pal Pad]] that I think is more appropriate to what the section should be doing. It discusses the subject's role, while also allows the reader to head to the actual article to learn more information specific to the printed card. The only issue I see with this might be specific people with many Pokémon or cards in the TCG (like [[Brock]], [[Misty]], [[Professor Oak]]), but as a solution, maybe linking to the person category ([[:Category:Brock (TCG)]]) would be the solution. Those characters could also probably use a table with minimal information of what Pokémon/cards exist (honestly just cardname, with link, and type would suffice in my mind), but most won't really need it.
