Talk:Alola Route 11

Commented out sections

I've noticed that on a lot of location pages (like this one), the Pokémon tables are commented out, and was wondering if someone might be able to provide an explanation as to why this is. Jaxon (talk) 04:09, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

It's because they're still in development. Keeping them commented out lets them be worked on until missing information (like encounter rates) can be decided on, at which point they are made visible. TechSkylander1518 (talk) 04:09, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Is this a new practice then? Because I can remember several pages for XY/ORAS that didn't have encounter rates defined yet (displayed as "??%"). Jaxon (talk) 04:12, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

I personally was not around for the development of those pages, but if that's how it was then, it does seem like it is a new practice. TechSkylander1518 (talk) 04:13, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

I still find it odd that they would be commented out based on unverified encounter rates, as I still see usefulness in at least seeing what Pokémon are avaliable in at a location, but that's just my personal opinion. At any rate, thank you for taking the time to help me. Jaxon (talk) 04:21, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

The encounter rates are there. Pretty much all that needs verification are the encounter locations (so grass, "surf", fishing, caves, etc.). --Carmen★ (Talk | contribs) 04:22, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Some places also have different encounter rates per location (such as Route 1 having different encounter rates for different patches of grass), so all of those have to be verified as well. --Carmen★ (Talk | contribs) 04:25, 4 December 2016 (UTC)
