I agree that categorizing the items by the game which they first appeared in will make the item list look neater. However, the original sequence of [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Johto_Route_32&diff=prev&oldid=2110267#Items items] will nonetheless confuse the players as they have to refer to the list constantly due to the mixed up locations of the items. What I am trying to do is to ensure that the items are sorted by the sequence which the player is able to obtain them, although [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Johto_Route_32&curid=12705&diff=2127474&oldid=2110267#Items my edit] was admittedly flawed.

:...If you want to keep track, our current item lists are greatly flawed in the first place. A pure text description of item locations simply lacks all context. The ideal solution would be to overlay items on an actual map—''every'' other option is problematic to some degree.

:By all means, try to improve the current state of affairs. But I believe that having to skip items (that are "in order") just because they're not in the game I'm currently playing is ''at least'' as bad as having to skip around the list (or whichever half pertains to my game...). I won't (personally) be satisfied with an order that doesn't at least group all the HGSS-exclusive items at the bottom.
