→Caught vs. Obtained

While you could just make the wording technically correct (calling Pignite the second Pokémon Ash caught in Unova rather than the third, and so on), I think it would be more inclusive to just say that they were acquired/obtained.

:Hi! You can't say they were obtained if they were actually caught. You can reword maybe the numbering, but "caught" suits better. I didn't change the numeration because those phrases are there since years, maybe ask an admin what's better.--[[User:Franky7|Franky7]] ([[User talk:Franky7|talk]]) 13:32, 24 March 2022 (UTC) | :Hi!

::You have it backwards. Catching a Pokémon is the same as obtaining a Pokémon, but obtaining a Pokémon is not always the same as catching one (since they can also be received as a gift or via trading). As I've already stated, "obtained/acquired" is the more accurate wording. [[User:PokemonMasterJamal3|PokemonMasterJamal3]] ([[User talk:PokemonMasterJamal3|talk]]) 16:30, 24 March 2022 (UTC) | |||
