Pokémon Summary page

I've looked all over, and I can't find a page that describes the pokémon Summary screen. It seems too big a feature to just be relegated to half a paragraph on the Pokémon Battle page.

Also, this page doesn't even say that you can view a pokémon's summary by selecting it in the Party screen. That's a rather large oversight. ~ Serial Colour 18:08, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

You mean like here? Werdnae (talk) 18:51, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

Yes, but as I said, that's just one line that barely mentions what is actually in the set of screens that are the summary pages. In fact:

"The summary information is dependent on what is available in the game's generation."

That's all there is to it. Surely this isn't enough information? ~ Serial Colour 19:33, 27 December 2009 (UTC)

Gen V Summary

The article mentions that tapping the screen lets you view the back sprite, but would it also be worth noting that by sliding either up/down or left/ right, the pokemon will jump, or that by drawing circles around the pokemon makes them levitate? ~ Deathparty666 17:01, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

I cant make them levatate, but they hop back into place if you tap the screen while your pokes are backwards. Not very notable, if you ask me. ♣♣ Ƒǿҫὑṩ ❺❽ ♣♣ 17:10, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

No no! That's not what I mean! Just put the stylus on the pokemon, and without lifting it up continuously draw circles around the pokemon. After a brief moment the sprite will stop moving and start floating up towards the top of the screen! ~ Deathparty666 17:16, 25 June 2011 (UTC)

Confirmed. You have to really hang on and spin it fast, and keep it entirely on their sprite, however. Reccomended not experimenting with pokemon that float normally, like Haunter or Shedinja, but my Lopunny got all the way up to its level number with its ears.--Aescula 09:15, 5 November 2011 (UTC)

Sprites from Gen I & II

The party sprites from Generation I and II (some of them can be seen here: and here: ). We don't have them for some reason. Vuvuzela2010 ☠ 17:22, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Here's some of them. Vuvuzela2010 ☠ 17:24, 25 October 2011 (UTC)

Symbols on Pokemon's page

I don't know if the other DS games have this, but in HGSS below the Pokemon's picture, there are symbols (circle, triangle, square, heart, etc.) but I'm not sure what they mean. Does anyone know? Thanks! Okoa (talk) 02:47, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Pokémon Storage System#Markings is probably it. --Abcboy (talk) 02:58, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Ah, that's it. Thanks a bunch! Okoa (talk) 08:48, 27 September 2012 (UTC)

Gen. III

The Ruby and Sapphire party screen is slightly different from Emerald's (such as the background being blue instead of yellowish), but the image is labeled as "Generation III". Is the difference noticeable enough to add Ruby and Sapphire's to the images as well? AGGRON989 18:32, 13 March 2014 (UTC)

PokeBall icons when Pokémon has status problem

In Gen I and II, I know the Pokeball turns black when a Pokémon has a status problem. In Gen VI onwards, I know the Pokeball turns yellow instead. However, I don't know the Pokeball icon when status problem for other Gens. TogekissFan4956 (talk) 02:09, 29 December 2022 (UTC)

Found out the Pokeball when status problem in Gen III

In Gen III, the Poké Ball still turns completely black when inflicted with a status problem. However I still need the Poke Ball from Gen IV and V when inflicted by a status problem TogekissFan4956 (talk) 21:03, 15 January 2023 (UTC)
