Joining the two Wikipedia pages for Pokémon episodes edit

Let the list of episodes for Pokémon be in a single page rather than two pages Gershon Jonish (talk) 04:52, 29 January 2019 (UTC)Reply

I agree with this notion Yeungkahchun (talk) 18:03, 24 September 2020 (UTC)Reply

I disagree. Seasons 1-13 are within a separate continuity. Season 14 begins the rebooted continuity. We see the evidence of this due to the age of Ash being reset back to 10 at the beginning of season 14. Artemaeus Creed (talk) 18:47, 9 November 2020 (UTC)Reply
Hasn't Ash always been 10 years old? It's not like he turned 11 prior to Unova and then reset back to 10 at season 14. Also I wouldn't really call it a 'rebooted continuity' as the series wasn't 'rebooted' in a reboot sense, pre-season 14 references are made post season 14.

List of Pokémon episodes (seasons 14–current)List of Pokémon episodes (seasons 14–present) – Proper grammar, and every other list of this nature says "present" instead of "current" Blubabluba9990 (talk) (contribs) 18:17, 14 July 2021 (UTC)Reply

Page over parsing limit edit

This page is way beyond its parsing limit and is in need of splitting just like its sister page List of Pokémon episodes (seasons 1–12).

here are some suggested splits:
maximum parse splits:
- List of Pokémon episodes (seasons 1–12) shortened to seasons 1-8 (max parse)
- a brand new pokemon episodes list page covering seasons 9-16 (max parse)
- List of Pokémon episodes (seasons 13–present) moved to cover season 17 onwards (exceeds parsing limits, however season 25 table can be written instead of transcribed. will require splitting if the series continues past season 25).
all pages with fully parsed splits (+ future proofing):
- List of Pokémon episodes (seasons 1–12) shortened to seasons 1-7 (fully parsed + headroom)
- a brand new pokemon episodes list page covering seasons 8-14 (fully parsed + headroom)
- List of Pokémon episodes (seasons 13–present) moved to cover season 15-21 (max parse)
- another new pokemon episodes list page covering season 22 onwards (fully parsed)

I say write all of the seasons rather than transclude them.--Launchballer 11:58, 12 November 2022 (UTC)Reply
Tested just now in my sandbox: Substituting instead of transcluding does drop the post-expand include size dramatically (1,959,648 of 2,097,152 bytes 🡆 1,340,558 of 2,097,152 bytes). But that has downsides and we may find ourselves in the same situation four or five seasons down the line. Regards, FuwaHitsuji (talk) 14:45, 8 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
I support splitting the pages. Seasons 1-9, 10-19, 20-present makes the most sense, story-wise. Pallettown (talk) 20:00, 7 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

I weakly support splitting based on your second suggestion (groups of 7). Needing four separate articles would be unfortunate, but perhaps unsurprising for a series pushing past 1200 episodes. I made some rough calculations on episode counts (including specials):

  • Seasons 1-7: 368 episodes
  • Seasons 8-14: 344 episodes
  • Seasons 15-21: 337 episodes
  • Seasons 22-present: 216 episodes (ongoing)

Still a lot, but a more reasonable length. Not transcluding may be an option, but I believe we'd still be limited to around 15 seasons per page before hitting the limit, and we'd likely have a third page in a few years. It may also be less neat for editing. Although we would likely need a fifth page, starting around season 29. That's not too far off either.. Fuwa (she/her)✉️ 15:13, 8 May 2023 (UTC)Reply

I'm curious what others think: do we really need a page consolidating seasons? The shortest (completed) season, Diamond and Pearl: Sinnoh League Victors, is only 36 episodes yet still makes for a decently long page. Even the smallest proposed split would be a sizeable ~350 episodes per page. Something to consider, at least. Regards, Fuwa (she/her)✉️ 09:49, 9 May 2023 (UTC)Reply
