Editorial policy
What we will print
We print a fact when a public page, a public video, a store listing, or a registry record says it. The source list at the bottom of each article has the URL and the date we read it. Status cells say how many publishers agree, for example “1 publisher · official data” or “2 independent sources”.
Rankings of starters, moves, and items are editorial. They use published stats or published effect text. They are not win rates. The tier list says so in the first section.
What we leave blank
If a number is not on a public page, the cell stays empty. We do not estimate Mega or Demonic multipliers, per-legendary bond moves, shiny routes, or a code that only exists in a private chat. One publisher is allowed on the page, and the status says so.
Corrections go to [email protected]. A accepted correction updates the sentence and the checked date. We do not quietly swap a figure.
Images and names
Gameplay frames are taken from public videos and credited in the caption. We do not cut up another site’s marketing image and present it as our own art. Pokémon names are used to identify game data. The about page states who owns those names.
Questions
When is a number confirmed?
When two independent public sources agree. Two pages on pokelit.0d4y.cc count as one publisher, so the status line says “official pages”, not “two sources”.
What if sources disagree?
Both figures stay, with the page they came from. The 980 Pokédex count and the 966 preview image are the current example.

Method: compare public pages, published game data and cited videos. Pages from one publisher count as one source; table status distinguishes official data from editorial interpretation.
