:::::I intentionally left out {{p|Shedinja}} because it doesn't really ''evolve'' from Nincada per se; Ninjask is its evolution and Shedinja is just... there. I wouldn't personally include it in this list. However. For some reason I could swear I remember that this little bit of trivia used to exist on some pages, such as Swablu or Altaria's, some long time ago, and was since removed. I distinctly recall seeing something about how Swablu changes its primary type upon evolution (which was rare), and I can't imagine anywhere else where I would have seen it. | :::::I intentionally left out {{p|Shedinja}} because it doesn't really ''evolve'' from Nincada per se; Ninjask is its evolution and Shedinja is just... there.

:::::And Tiddlywinks, you say "So?", but there are a lot of really arbitrary categories on this wiki that would make a lot of other people say the same. For example, there's got to be "category" for every possible BST, most of which have only one Pokémon included in them. There's also a "category" for each and every method of evolution, one of which containing {{p|Feebas|every single Pokémon in the universe that evolves using a Prism Scale}}. Therefore, I hardly think that a lack of entries makes a category unworthy of creation. I'm still not sure how to phrase such a category, though. — [[User:Kianglo|<span style="color:#6900CC"><b>KiAN</b></span><span style="color:#000000"><b>GLO</b></span>]] <sup>[[User talk:Kianglo|<span style="color:#6900cc"><u>TA</u></span><span style="color:#000000"><u>LK</u></span>]]</sup> 04:09, 12 June 2016 (UTC) | :::::And Tiddlywinks, you say "So?", but there are a lot of really arbitrary categories on this wiki that would make a lot of other people say the same.

::::::If you think "So?" is in response to, "Actually, there's several Pokemon that can fit the category", casually dismissing that, you're quite mistaken. That's in response to the category idea itself ("They lose a type. OK...so?" I.e., IMO it's not very interesting/worthwhile.) | |||
::::::The BST categories are ''automatic'' (generated by the base stats template), and for all intents and purposes you can consider the evolution method categories automatic too (there's plenty reason for those). Categories like those are the exact reason I said "generally" right from the get-go; they're not what I was talking about. Something like {{cat|protection moves}} is a far better analogy. If we only had {{m|Protect}}, we wouldn't have created that category; but once a few more such moves appeared, it became a worthy grouping to make. 04:34, 12 June 2016 (UTC) | |||
