Episode Guide Data
As part of our on going task to get as much information as possible about the Pokemon Anime in a database form, the character bios are the next step to give viewers of the website a lot of information about the characters. While some characters will have more information to build a biography, most characters should have enough information from the episodes they are in to write at least a
3 paragraph biography.
An example bio is available here. Some characters have basic or 1 paragraph bios already. Please expand upon those bios especially if the episode you are watching has important information for a character that doesn't have any bio information written about yet. Our goal it to have a minimum of 3 to 5 paragraphs of information for each character. Some characters, especially some character Pokemon may need a bit of padding to get that much but that shouldn't be too hard to do.
We are hoping to get as many people as possible to write biographies for the characters in that episode and to check to make sure the current information in the 'Character' guide tab is accurate. Bios need to be written for all "Characters" listed in the episode guide tab, which includes characters of the day, secondary characters and secondary character Pokemon, ect. Quite often secondary characters will appear in a lot of episodes. Only add major relevant information to their bios pertaining to the episodes you are assigned if that information isn't already there. Please refrain from writing episode synopsis for the characters and include only relevant information.
Assigning Shortname Tags to Characters in Bio's
When referring to a character (and a characters Pokemon) in the biography area, use the {{Char=short_name_goes_here}} tag so that it will automatically change the name depending on the language set. Use the shortname for the character listed on the
Character Link. Please do not change the shortname at all in the character editing interface as it will break links.

Episode assignments are first come first serve, so if your familiar with a block of episodes, or wish to be assigned to multiple episode blocks, please let us know. Watching the episode is required but the language you watch it in is up to you as long as you can collect the correct information. Below is the list of episodes that character bios need to be written for and who is assigned to write the bios and check the characters in the episodes.
A list of the episode numbers is located here.
People working on the bios are encouraged to update their current status on this page as often as possible. Thank you for helping and we hope you'll enjoy this and other features on the website.
