Many facts on this list aren't that significant... In AG002, it mentions that Ash and May arrive in Oldale Town, and that they leave Oldale Town. Not that big a deal. And in BW005, Tepig and Oshawott learn Tackle. Big whoop. Someone's gotta go through this and clean it out.--[[User:Burgundy|<font color="yellow">Bu</font><font color="red">rg</font>]][[User talk: Burgundy|<font color="blue">un</font><font color="green">dy</font>]] 00:23, 3 February 2011 (UTC)

:I agree with this, it reads more of a chronological episode synopsis than a list of significant events. Captures/evolutions, badge wins, battles with other notable trainers (i.e. Elite Four) seem fair enough, but changes in the team (aside trades/releases), learning minor moves and arriving in one-episode anime-exclusive locations seems excessive.
:If we take the very first episode, currently it reads:
:;''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]''
:*{{Ash}} turns 10.
:*{{Gary}} turns 10.
:*Two unnamed and unknown Trainers receive [[Pokédex]]s and [[starter Pokémon]] from {{an|Professor Oak}}. One chooses {{p|Bulbasaur}}, the other chooses {{p|Charmander}}.
:*Gary receives a Pokédex and his starter Pokémon from his grandfather, Professor Oak. He chooses a {{TP|Gary|Squirtle|Blastoise}}.
:*Gary leaves Pallet Town to become a [[Pokémon Trainer]].
:*Ash receives a Pokédex and his [[starter Pokémon]] from Professor Oak. He chooses the only [[Pokémon]] left, {{AP|Pikachu}}.
:*Ash leaves Pallet Town to become a Pokémon Trainer.
:*Ash attempts to capture a {{p|Pidgey}}. He fails miserably.
:*Ash meets {{an|Misty}} and steals her [[bicycle]].
:*{{AP|Pikachu}} attacks a flock of {{p|Spearow}}, destroying Misty's bike and depleting its health in the process.
:*{{Ash}} sees a {{an|Ho-Oh}}.
:I would trim the excess to be left with something more like:
:;''[[EP001|Pokémon, I Choose You!]]''
:*{{Ash}} and {{Gary}} turn 10 and both leave [[Pallet Town]] with a Pokédex and their first Pokémon, {{AP|Pikachu}} and {{TP|Gary|Squirtle|Blastoise}} respectively, having been given them by Professor Oak.
:*Ash meets {{an|Misty}}.
:*Ash sees a {{an|Ho-Oh}}.
:I haven't edited much on here though, don't want to start by treading on people's toes! [[User:Bulba-Bulba-Llamasaur|Bulba-Bulba-Llamasaur]] 16:43, 24 December 2011 (UTC)

The article states that Arceus created the universe, yada yada yada.  It's basically assuming that the Sinnoh creation myth is true in the anime, and is citing Arceus and the Jewel of Life as it's source.  Admittedly, I haven't seen the movie from start to finish, but from what I remember, and what I read in the article for the movie here on the website, that was never mentioned.  --[[User:Dual|Dual]] 08:45, 13 December 2011 (UTC)
