:Characters who are anime-exclusive, ie [[Sakura]], [[Daisy]], [[Violet]], [[Lily]].
* {{template|Project CharacterDex notice}} &mdash; to be placed at the bottom of all Project articles.
:Characters who debut in the anime, only appearing in the games due to that.

Scope and aims

Project CharacterDex aims to write and improve comprehensive articles on characters from games. Good articles include Blue and Red.

Project CharacterDex also aims to get as much info as possible on new characters. A good example would be Pokémon Trainer from Super Smash Bros. Brawl.

Project CharacterDex also aims to add unknown info about the characters and their Pokémon. This includes moves and Abilities. A good example would be the addition of previously unknown abilities of the Pokémon in the Battleground.

This Project's goal is to cover every possible article that falls under the criteria of "game-exclusive characters" and to pick up as many helping members as possible along the way.
