In progress. Greenish Pickle! (🔔) 22:52, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

Concept

• "specifically dragons seen in Chinese mythology." (No sourced at the end) Unsourced
• The next sentence is also unsource

Appearances

• Link NPC

In anime

• seems repetitive, reword it into simply just "In anime"
• "the first one being in Battle Aboard the St. Anne." unsourced?
• "returned in Pokémon Journeys: The Series" unsourced?

Reception

• "Magikarp has been regarded as one of the weakest Pokémon in the series, as well as one of the worst Pokémon of all time" Why IGN is the only source cited here? try to find other sources, if you can't then reword the sentence, but the worst part is the IGN source is dead so you could probably end up removing it.
• Dexerto source seems unreliable
• NPCs was linked here instead in the "appearances section", so change it.
• "Paste said it "exemplifies power through perseverance,"[15] and praised it as an iconic staple of the series" Well, paste didn't praised it but "TheGamer", reword it. Also, the add the name of author for the Paste.
• "core themes of bonding with Pokemon, with The Verge" add the name of author before "The Verge"
• "The game was also praised for making the joke" Add the author's name and website who praised it.

Sources

• ref 20 has no name of the author
• ref 38 has no name of the author
• ref 39 has no name of the author
• ref 40 has no name of the author, website name is wrong (why is it anime?) and date of the article
• ref 41 has no name of the author + I don't knowthat's a reliable source. I'll recommend to remove it.
• ref 42 has no name of the author
• ref 43 has no name of the author
• ref 45 has no name of the author
• ref 49 has no name of the author
• ref 50 dead source.
• ref 51 has no name of the author
• ref 52 has no name of the author

That's everything what I can find. Greenish Pickle! (🔔) 23:33, 14 April 2024 (UTC)

@Greenish Pickle! made the requested edits. I can't really fix much about the dead link, though I removed the IGN one since I was unaware it was broken. The Battle Aboard the S.S Anne section is cited to ref 32. I've fixed what edits I could in places, so hopefully it's alright. Let me know if there's any other changes I need to make. Has one ever considered Magneton? Pokelego999 (talk) 00:41, 15 April 2024 (UTC)

I made a couple of changes and I'm happy to pass this. Thanks for working on the Pokemon articles, it really gives hope to the Wikiproject Pokemon. Greenish Pickle! (🔔) 00:51, 15 April 2024 (UTC)
