Re: Please Rate Our PokéDex?
To say that Pokémon fandom needs another 'dex is like saying the ocean needs more water.
Lol, you brought up necessity, not me. It was a personal challenge as well as an aspiration of mine. Not a creation of necessity. That said, the necessity of your post is tantamount to the necessity of the Dex I designed. Get it?
if you genuinely wanted to get rid of giant lists,
you probably should've used a search feature
That's true, I've not yet looked into to building my own site search yet...
Looks like it's still less useful than
veekun, ignoring that afaik Eevee still hasn't added in Pt data.
I didn't think, going into it, that I would best Eevee's Dex, lol, but I tried my best...
Javascript is gross: I should not need to enable javascript to actually look at useful data. Or anything, really. I mean, javascript is really gross. Quite a few people have it disabled by default: it tends to make sense.
While I sympathize, to some extent (I mention on the 'help me' page that I'm not too fond on client-side reliance) I felt it could not be avoided insofar as what I envisioned it would look like and do. In addition the aforementioned dislike for JScript would be personal preference, which constitutes about 8% of my current visitors (assuming they realize they have it disabled/not on).
Gross? I've not heard that word applied to scripting languages before, lol.
I'm thinking it may be possible to render the buttons instead as part of a form which, when clicked, reloads the page with the value of the sorrounding div having display: none; switched... I'll experiment with that and see if eliminating JScript in that right is possible; thanks for forcing me into a position where I'd have to explore alternatives :D
Why are pre-evo moves sorted alphabetically? Level-sort would make more sense.
Indeed it would.
A comparison of DP vs Pt level-up moves would be more useful: I'm rather partial to how veekun handles changes of moves in a given generation.
Hmm...
Are you manually editing these pages? If so, why?
Errr... Are you getting that idea because of last modified date? Its the last modified date for the script /monster/ and not the page /monster/dustox if that's what you are getting at. Its the same date on the page for all
/monster/ pages if you hadn't noticed, while you were noticing.
Manually editing those pages would be insanity, but it somehow appears that making
another Dex automatically qualifies me to be as such...
it's better than spp's pokedex but that's like saying something is better than cyanide. I don't see why you bothered, really: it does nothing that Veekun doesn't, other than Veekun's current lack of Pt data and that's probably just temporary, and it's missing quite a few useful features.
You don't like JScript. Prevo level sort, instead of alpha. DP/Pt move comparison instead of seperate lists. Improved Sitesearch. Aside from the aforementioned problems, to what do you refer to here?
