{{indent}}There was question above about "first evolution" and the like, and "evolutionary". I just caught an {{p|Eevee}} in Y and noticed that its Pokedex entry says "[Eevee] conceals many different possible '''evolutions'''." This suggests that the noun should only be capitalized when it refers to the process, ''not'' when it refers to a Pokemon that has undergone that process, like in "first evolution". When I looked at the Pokedex entries on Eevee's page, I also noticed that X's entry apparently says "different '''evolutionary''' forms".

:In that case, I'm just going to remove "Evolutionary" from the page, because the situations where it is necessary to capitalize it are far too sparse. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 07:21, 7 April 2014 (UTC)

== Plural names of Pokémon ==
In [[Generation I]], a girl next to [[Pewter Gym]] says "CLEFAIRYs" not "CLEFAIRY", and a man in [[Diglett's Cave]] states "DIGLETTs". Should this not be counted as an error in early episodes? I didn't know another place to put this... [[User:Pikachu Bros.|Pikachu Bros.]] <small>([[User talk:Pikachu Bros.|talk]])</small> 17:56, 7 April 2014 (UTC)
