(→‎Rematch Data: new section)
Line 270: Line 270:


I'm moving on to this project.  I'm convinced from my own game experience, however, that rematch data is not in a set order, but based on where you are in the story.  For instance, I rematched Dylan's Lv.18 Doduo (Route 117) three consecutive times, and much later my first "rematch" against Gabby and Ty was at Lv.41 when I was expecting a Lv.29 battle.  How should we document rematch data for the time being?  Should I just put information for each Route as I come across it in my userspace and we can decide from there how to handle it?  I think I prefer having separate tables, and then each sub-header can say something like, "After obtaining the 'Blank' Badge" followed by the appropriate data.  I can show what I mean after I have some data.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 08:17, 29 December 2014 (UTC)

:It looks like their RSE Trainer entries have a more or less similar problem, insofar as only one battle is displayed even though it appears they may have different teams.
:Rematches in general aren't handled terribly gracefully and/or uniformly (I believe?) on Bulbapedia. For past generations, there have been devices like the VS Seeker, and if that icon is in their row, I've come to understand that to imply that you should visit the Trainer class page to see their rematch data. For Gen VI/ORAS/Gabby and Ty, that's not really applicable, though...
:I would say yeah, list whatever battles are applicable. And for each "rematch" or battle after the first, include a note.

:...or something like that. (I imagine that'll work a little better than I think it does here in a whole table.) [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 08:46, 29 December 2014 (UTC)
