PTU 1.04 Core Typos

This paste is the result of me reading through the entirety of the PTU 1.04 Core book, and noting every typo, minor mistake, etc. that I could find. Many of these are repeats of things that have already been said, but I included them all anyway for the sake of completeness, just to make sure I didn't miss them. Some of them are fairly large errors, but most are very small and will take essentially no effort to fix.

Below I will mark what page it's on (and where on that page), as well as the nature of the error. There are 422 in all that I found, but...again, most are very small.


12/469 - Step-by-step is usually hyphenated throughout.
13/469 - Not sure if noted, but there should be an addendum that an attribute can't go below -2 or above +6, for minor clarification. Even though it's probably implied.
13-15/469 - For the Features and Edges, it says that 'Starting Trainers begin with...', while for the stats and attributes it says that 'Trainers begin with...'. I think putting 'Starting Trainers' on all of them would help, because for the stats explanation, I had to blink a bit before I realized what it was saying, and I know it was unchanged from 1.03.
17/469 - For the High Jump explanation, it says that a Skill Check is required for High Jump if it's 0 (just like in 1.03). It's not suggested where in the book you can find this skill check.
17/469 - For Weight Class, I'd assume that a trainer under 55 lbs is Weight Class 2? (Hey, it could happen! Children are pretty small!)
19/469 - It states Trainer stats don't follow Base Relation. While I know what this means, it's not cross-referenced to the Pokemon section. It might be worth it to do so.
19/469 - It doesn't say in Chapter 2 what level Trainers start at. I'm aware it's Level 1, but it should be stated.
21/469 - Later on page 29, I saw something called an 'Assisted Skill Check'. Though I can imagine what that is, it wasn't mentioned in the Skill section, as far as I noticed.
22/469 - Minor point: 'Accurate throwing and juggling both rely on Acrobatics, and you will want a high Acrobatics Ranks for exact tasks like...' should be Rank, not Ranks. Also, I think 'booby-trapped' might have to be hyphenated.
22etc/469 - Whoa! A box at the bottom of the page for each skill. That's new. Neat. ...these are Edges, not features, correct? That's what I'm assuming. It should say somewhere.
26/469 '...the [Stealth] skill also covers sleight of hand tricks and larceny...' Sleight-of-hand is hyphenated. This instance occurs twice on this page.
29/469 - The phrase mad science has a " on one end, but only a ' on the other.
30/469 - In the opening paragraph on Occult Education, it says '...and this often dependent on the specific campaign' The word 'is' is missing.
32/469 - 'Technology Education is a Mind Skill that governs the creation and use of machines technology,' That phrase looks extremely weird there. Maybe it should be 'machines AND technology'? because as is, it doesn't look quite right.
32/469 - I know 'purview' is an amazing and apt word to use, but how many times can one use it before it grows stale? 'Scope' is a suggestable synonym, among others.
35/469 - I am mildly perturbed that Sycamore was used as the poster child for Charm, especially given how in X/Y everyone was essentially trying to molest the PC
37/469 - 'Even outside of supernatural influences, emotions can disrupt someone’s ability to act in tip top condition.' Tip-top is hyphenated.
44/469 - I hope the thing about Bind/Bound X AP is explained later, because here I have absolutely no idea what it means. By what it looks like, it seems like those feature take up an AP cost, and don't 'let it go' until they release the effect of the feature.
45/469 - I understand the risk involved of infantile Pokemon murder, and I also wholly endorse Espurrs dying left and right. BRING IT ON
46/469 - For Gem Lore, it only states the first bit is an Extended Action, and speaks nothing of the others. I'd assume they're either Extended or Standard, but it could go either way.
46/469 - Sustainable Recipes: Okay, so the scrap items can only be used for edges and features that require a specific item, and have no other use, correct? For example, I could scrap a Potion or X-item for some scrap items, and then use it to make medicines later or something? I'm confused as to how this even works, at first glance.
48/469 - Reckless Advance seems too good, personally. Don't know about in practice, but...+* to damage and 18+ to trip and negate evasion for a turn? That's just...wow.
48/469 - Focused Command is given as a Standard Action + Swift Action. Does the term 'Full Action' no longer exist?
49/469 - Focused Training does not have an Untrained skill as a prerequisite? Why not have it as Novice Focus (lol) and Untrained Command (or the other way around)?
49/469 - For the Cheerleader features which use Orders, they should be separated with semicolons, since 'Go, Fight, Win!' is the name of 1 feature, and it has commas in it.
50/469 - Multi-tasking: Are there any actions that aren't moves that have a frequency of EOT?
53/469 - When you said that there were 5 categories rated on a scale of 1 to 5 for each class, I assumed that I'd get a small chart of all 5 with a different Poke Ball scale on each (like 5-1-3-2-3 or something), not 1 or 2 categories with just 5 Poke Balls in total. I was disappointed.
**57/469 - For Selective Fire, doesn't Perish Song have the Friendly keyword already? (I'm not at moves yet, all I know is it used to have Friendly and I don't know if it still does)
61/469 - For Capture Specialist and Advanced Capture Techniques, it states you can gain 2 more features with each time you take it. Thus, you can theoretically gain 10 capture techniques in this way. ...There's only 8 to pick from. There should be more than 10 (possibly 12) to choose from, especially given how the prerequisites for some of them are very tricky, or the feature's scope should be lessened.
61/469 - For Gotta Catch 'Em All, it should probably be noted that single-digit numbers are treated as being double-digit, just with a 0 in the tens place. And using the feature would turn a 1 into a 10, anyway. Or does it not apply if it's only a single-digit number?
62/469 - Devitalizing Throw says 'Choose One Effect:'. With features like that, it usually just states 'Effect: Choose one - [etc]'.
64/469 - The [CLASS] tag on Cheerleader is uppercase. All other [Class] tags are put in upper-lower.
64/469 - Under Moment of Action, it spells out AP as Action Points. No other feature (that I'm aware of) does this.
65/469 - For Go, Fight, Win!, couldn't you put X Daily instead of Special as the usage? ...You don't have to, though it could give a hint.
66/469 - I found the description for Chef unusual. 'Many chefs don't travel, but...' Invariably, in a campaign, unless it's set in just 1 city/location etc., the party will be travelling around. Chefs aren't usually solo in parties.
68/469 - Why the hell does Leftovers cost so LITTLE to make!? It should easily be twice as much as any of the other treats. Hell, even the cost of Leftovers and Black Sludge in the ship (page 255) is suspiciously low.
68/469 - The Dumplings recipe states 'you require Leftovers or Preserves' twice.
70/469 - I assume Decisive Director has a small oversight; it can target any Pokemon, instead of just an ally Pokemon. If that's not an oversight, that's a little too good, to spend a Standard Action to change Initiative by as much as 12.
70/469 - On Adaptable Performance, it says it has a frequency of Scene, but goes on to say it can only be used once per Contest. ...I didn't know Contests had multiple scenes?
70/469 - For Nuanced Performance, would Fly be an other example of a move that 'fails to activate'? because that's the only other example I can think of, as well as stuff like Solarbeam.
71/469 - For the Innovative moves, I assume 'phrase associated with the contest stat' involves the contest stat in contests, but the corresponding battle stat in battles? That's what I think it says, though it feels unclear.
72/469 - Spinda doesn't dance; it's just continually drunk.
74/469 - I think it's 'will themselves to victory', not into.
75/469 - Shrug Off seems really strong to me.
76/469 - Fashionista: 'Clothes don't make the man, but they make the man look great.' Odd choice of picture there. That's clearly a woman. ...Actually, wait. It might be a cross-dresser. Never mind.
77/469 - 'You may wear and benefit from 2 accessory items at once.' My OP meter is ringing. I'd change this completely. There's too much potential for abuse.
77/469 - For Stylish Makeover being unbound by an Extended Action/Rest, who's the one taking the rest - the fashionista, or the target?
77/469 - Elaborate Masquerade: The word 'Raised' is missing after 'Intuition'.
77/469 - Scents of Sophistication is an 'Exended' Action, rather than Extended.
78/469 - Fashion Companion is even more abusable than Fashionista. Pokemon holding 2 Held Items? No thank you. Dazzling the Stage is similar, though that is not where the problem lies.
79/469 - Hatcher spiel should go '...universities, while others...' because otherwise you get a sentence with 2 semicolons. The 2nd paragraph has another sentence with 2 semicolons, and the last paragraph has a FRAGMENT after a semicolon.
80/469 - For Birthright it says that each effect can only be applied once. ...isn't that already implied?
82/469 - Varied Hobbies Rank 1 Prerequisites looks odd with Justify align. JUSTIFY! *shakes fist*
82/469 - For Hobbyist Adept, you could word it as such that you can pick 2 from a list of features in Hobbyist plus a few more, since there's only 7 (Basic Balls, Egg Index, Personal Connection, Charmer, Acrobat, Instinctive Aptitude, Nimble Movement) that aren't on that list. ...Okay, 'only 7' does sound like a lot...
82/469 - For Look And Learn, I assume you can only learn 1 feature as such in that way.
85/469 - It's spelt 'dextrous', not 'dexterous'.
88/469 - Using Lasher WILL cause your Pokemon to dislike you? or just MAY cause them, with a very high likelihood?
89/469 - 'Martial Arts' is standardly not capitalized. Also, the phrases after the semicolons (that start with 'others') are missing a verb, but the verbs are implied so I guess it's not that bad. The semicolon in the Cruelty description should be changed to a comma, however, and the Reckless and Technician descriptions are missing full stops.
90/469 - 'i.e.' needs to have full stops after both the I and E.
90/469 - Cruelty and Inner Focus have the same tags. +2HP or +HP+Speed for Inner Focus, perhaps?
92/469 - Set-ups is hyphenate
94/469 - 'Wilderness Exploration, Competitive Battling, and Fighting Crime all run the risk of injury or worse.' Why are these all capitalized?
94/469 - The double-semicolon sentence here is okay because it's essentially a list of things. The others shifted from lists to independent clauses.
95/469 - For Healer's Touch, shouldn't it be 'heals Hit Points'? Or does it say 'gain' everywhere and I didn't notice.
98/469 - 'As such the gift of music is found almost everywhere in the world.' That full stop should be replaced with a dash, as the following sentence is a fragment. Also, 'sound-based' is hyphenated.
99/469 - The word 'Special' in 'Special Attack' is spelt out. In other tags, such as Sp.Def, it's abbreviated.
99/469 - The full stop is missing at the end of the Note.
100/469 - Uh, doesn't Perish Song already have the Friendly keyword? And didn't I say this already?
101/469 - 'but it’s main draw is an alternative tutoring method' The 'its' needs the apostrophe removed.
102/469 - Do Albums have unlimited space? I'd assume so, since it doesn't imply they have limits anywhere.
104/469 - ...'The world is vast place'? The word 'a' is missing.
107/469 - Okay, so Improvised Gadgets has 2 shots per day per rank, and the effect is that you pick a Pokemon to give it a capability, and also give yourself a move. These changes last until the end of the day. ...I get the feeling that could be worded a lot cleaner, as it took a lot of snooping around to realize what it meant.
108/469 - The Paleontology Talents abbreviate Education to Edu. No other place does it do this, even when it goes over on to the next line.
108/469 - Ancient Heritage's effect of altering Ancient Power's effect sounds like it applies to all of your Pokemon, not just (revived) Fossils.
111/469 - Or why not when mounted, the shift increases by 3? Having it as not counting sounds like an odd and cumbersome wording.
111/469 - Stampede says it only affects each Pokemon once per scene. Its frequency is Scene. I understand it now to affect the Pokemon that get Stampeded over, but that is not directly understood from the wording.
117/469 - Under Acid Vial, the word 'add' should be lowercase.
120/469 - On Soldier, 'Basic training' and 'PokeSoldier' should be moved so that they're the first features displayed, since the rest of the class features revolve around those.
122/469 - Stat Ace has 2 lists of prerequisites. There should be a bolded 'OR' in there somewhere.
123/469 - For Stat Mastery (Attack), it should say 1 more meter...? (as some melee moves push anyway.)
124/469 - 'In Battles, In Contests, and in Life,...' life, lowercase.
125/469 - See 'OR', see also the Stat Ace (122) comment.
125etc/469 - For Fabulous Max, and what happens if it's matching? Is it super-matching and you get another 1d6 to roll? (This also applies to all the other features in the other Style Experts with the same effect.)
130/469 - For Terrain Talent, does the effect apply only when in the specified terrain, or can it apply anywhere if conditions are met? e.g. for Traceur, could I try and hold on to a ledge I find anywhere?
131/469 - You used it's instead of its again (second paragraph, first sentence).
132/469 - OR?
132/469 - Type Tactician, there is an extra 'to' in the sentence that starts 'X is equal to to...'
135/469 - Under Exploit Opening, 'Fighting Type' is not hyphenated. It should be.
136/469 - Eye of the Storm seems too good. Maybe -2 ACC and -5 to damage rolls for the next edition?
137/469 - For Phantom Limb, are melee moves treated as having Ranged 1 or Ranged 0 in this case, for purposes of extending the range? e.g. can it make a Melee move have a max range of 6, or 7?
137/469 - For Sunlight Within, does it lower the DB of Water-type moves? I assume not, so possibly it should be phrased that a (Fire/Water) move used in this way doesn't have its DB altered because of the sunlight.
138/469 - Earthroil turning things into a potential Line 6? That seems scary. Why not have it cost 1 AP and make it Line X/2 (max 3) instead? ESPECIALLY given how it comboes with Upheaval in rather dangerous ways.
138/469 - Deep Cold lowers Evasion by -2? ...Double negatives, anyone?
140/469 - Psionic Sponge and Madness Network's flavor text do not hyphenate 'Psychic-Type'.
141/469 - Crashing Spray can be worded as a Static feature, could it not?
143/469 - So I could theoretically use Final Potential multiple times on the same Pokemon and gain all the stat points while spending all the Tutor Points? sweet lgi
146/469 - Aura Guardian: 'If your Intuition is Adept Rank or higher, you also gain the Aura Pulse Capability.' ...you mean, beyond the rest of the scene! sweet lgi
147/469 - In this context, 'one-man' is hyphenated.
148/469 - In the Channeler base feature, there's an extra 'all' that shouldn't be there.
148/469 - Is this 'Choose One Effect' a thing now? I saw it once before...
149etc/469 - Minor point, but that last sentence could say '...such as Psychic- or Fighting-Type Pokemon...' Medium has a similar sentence in its class description also, as does Ninja and a few others.
152/469 - Highly Responsive to Prayers lists 'Hex Manic Studies' as a pre-requisite (instead of Maniac).
152/469 - For Sage's Benediction and Hex Maniac's Malediction, one says 'Chose White Magic' (uppercase Chose) and the other says 'chose Black Magic' (lowercase chose).
154/469 - For Ninjutsu, I think the prerequisites needs to say '2 of .... OR ... at Adept/Expert/Master' instead of 'and'.
155/469 - For Path of the Rolling Forretress's restriction on placing hazards, I assume the 'you may not place any more' refers to each instance of using the feature, not to all instances of using it. (i.e. I could place 8, then 8 more on my next turn, correct?)
158/469 - Isn't Mind Lock 2 words, not 1? or am I just weird?
166/469 - Under Professor's Assistant, the apostrophe on 'catching 'em all' is backwards.
167/469 - The etc. in 'Acrobat etc' under Sportsman is missing the full stop.
168/469 - Martial Artists performing 'hypnotizing katas'? brb consulting dictionary; I've never heard that word before
169/469 - Under Thug, I believe 'rough-and-tumble' is hyphenated. (The phrase is seen twice.)
170etc/469 - Under Law Enforcement, 'archetype' is listed in uppercase, where it's lowercase in previous archetype lists (but not subsequent ones).
171/469 - Under Mad Scientist, 'life' is in uppercase.
173/469 - "An Aura Guardian gets a more shallow glance at someone’s heart, but they can do so at a glance." While this isn't incorrect, you use 'glance' twice in the same sentence.
176/469 - When explaining base stats, it uses a Charmander's base stats as an example. On the prior page, the typical page shown is that of Froakie. For convenience, wouldn't it be easier to use the same Pokemon for both examples?
176/469 - Base Relations Rule should say 'simply states', not holds. 'Holds' doesn't work as well in this instance.
177/469 - "when adding stats, you don’t need to “Correct” Stats due to the “violations” made due to these features." The word 'correct' should be in lowercase.
178/469 - When describing a Pokemon's "Second Ability" or "Third Ability", I don't think 'second' or 'third' need be uppercase.
178/469 - Under moves, the full stop is missing after 'bypass this limit'.
178/469 - If a Pokemon is tutored a move and it later learns it via level-up, I see it becomes treated as a 'Natural' move instead. But, are the Tutor Points refunded or no? ...wait, it says they're lost forever on page 180. Never mind. I thought I heard somewhere they got refunded.
179/469 - "and it’s just as possible to have a terrifyingly obese Pidove who can’t even fly." THE FATTEST PIGEON
180/469 - For Leveling up, there's a full stop missing after 'Base Relations Rule'.
180/469 - The first sentence in the "Training Pokemon" box has Combat capitalized (it shouldn't be, in this case). In the following sentence, 'Train' is capitalized at the end of the sentence (again, it shouldn't be).
183/469 - "Capability Training may be taken multiple times, each time increasing a different Capability." I assume that means you can take it a maximum of 4 times (Intelligence, Power, Long Jump, High Jump)?
185/469 - Venusaur's Offensive Tank build mentions 'staying power' and 'offensive power'. Perhaps 'power' could be changed to 'presence' in the 2nd sentence?
187/469 - The Disabler set on Venusaur knows Worry Seed AND Sleep Powder. This is probably not the smartest idea.
188/469 - The bottom of the page spells 'released' with an extra A in it.
189/469 - The phrase 'Gym Leader father' should be followed by a comma, instead of a full stop.
192/469 - "Next, consider the Pokémon’s Rarity. Shiny Pokémon and subtract 10 from the Pokémon’s Capture Rate." The 'and' shouldn't be there.
197/469 - "you gain a 50% boost in total rather than gaining a 20% boost and then 30% more off of that total, which would result in a total 60% boost." Technically, it'd be 56, not 60 *hides*
201/469 - Under the Teleporter capability, "(ie it is not possible to ‘chain’ teleports in order to fly)." should be i.e.
202/469 - I think Pokemon-Amie is supposed to be hyphenated. I could be wrong, though.
203/469 - Under Use Pokemon You Like! it says "there's litte reason for a GM to go all out" - there's an L missing.
203/469 - Also in this section, it says that Earthquake, Ice Beam, and Thunderbolt can only be used once a Scene. While that's true in 1.03, in 1.04 it remains true only of Earthquake. (In fact, Earthquake and Rock Slide were the only moves like that to remain as less than EOT.)
205/469 - 'Drawing a weapon' has weapon in lowercase, but 'switching from one Weapon to another' has it in uppercase instead.
209/469 - 'And so on and so forth' should be joined with the previous sentence by a comma, instead of remaining as a fragment.
209/469 - The last sentence of the Slow Terrain explanation says 'Rough Terrain' instead.
211/469 - The phrase 'AOE' is not defined in the sentence. (I know it means Area Of Effect, but usually unfamiliar terms are defined beforehand somewhere.)
213/469 - It states Combat Stages remain until the end of the encounter. Shouldn't that be Scene instead of encounter?
214/469 - When describing Flamethrower and its +4 bonus, the word 'neither' should not be in that sentence - or, remove the word 'not' and move 'neither' before 'be'.
214/469 - It states that a roll of 1 is always a miss. On that same vein, shouldn't it also state that a roll of 20 is always a hit?
214/469 - For attacks that cause Hit Point loss, it should say 'nor cause Injuries from Massive Damage' instead of 'or'.
216/469 - Type Effectiveness is hyphenated in the first sentence when it shouldn't be.
219/469 - For Grapples, you need to declare a Grapple each turn as a Standard Action to maintain the Grapple hold? It makes sense, but I didn't see it stated or implied anywhere here - it was only while I was reading Martial Artist that I noticed it (the Guts talent).
220/469 - In the last paragraph, the words 'maneuvers' and 'Skills' should be followed by commas instead of full stops.
223/469 - "There are also other conditions which are technically not Status afflictions and cannot be cured as such." Afflictions is in lowercase here.
223/469 - For Frozen Pokemon hit by damaging attacks of a certain type, it says 'they care cured of the Frozen condition', instead of 'they are'.
223/469 - Under Poison, it says "Poison and Steel type Pokémon" are immune to poison. Type is lowercase and there's no hyphen.
225/469 - Afflictions is lowercase in the first sentence.
225/469 - Fainted mentions "0 HIt Points" (instead of Hit Points).
225/469 - "Blindness is caused by several effects," should be a full stop, not a comma.
225/469 - For Total Blindness, 'sightlessness' should be followed by a comma, and the succeeding fragment joined with the sentence.
227/469 - In the first 'Doxy box' on this page (I can't say 'Doxy box' without smiling), the quotations go from single to double inexplicably - one of them even starts with a single and ends with a double.
238/469 - "such as creating fireworks from Fire Type moves" needs more hyphen
240/469 - At one point it says 'Contests Variants' in the 1st paragraph.
240/469 - I am digging the Goomy's air guitar.
241/469 - The 'Row' in 'twice in a Row' needs to be lowercase.
243/469 - I assume that Sabotage moves negate ALL dice points gained that round (including the user and non-adjacents), and the adjacent competitors each gain a Fumble Point for each die rolled that move? so essentially everyone gets 0, and adjacents get X Fumble Points? (Actually, according to the demo on p.245, I see the effect is completely different. ...I would not have guessed that, since 'all dice' implies the dice of all competitors.)
244/469 - Those are our contestants? My money's on zoofbat. Yes, I'm aware this is a Cute Contest.
245/469 - AWW YEAH ZOOFBAT \o/
246/469 - One paragraph says 'it it's predetermined' The it shouldn't be there.
247/469 - The word 'one on one' is not hyphenated (2nd paragraph).
247/469 - For Battle Contests, it says that all opposing Pokemon on the field are counted as "adjacent". I assume this is just for Voltage purpose and not the actual range of moves, correct?
249/469 - Given how the modifier is -100 on a Master Ball, and it's possible for Pokemon to have negative catch rates (as given by the level 80 Hydreigon in the example), it's also possible for a Master Ball to fail to catch a Pokemon. Is this intentional?
251/469 - Last sentence of the Collection Jar and First Aid Kit blurbs don't end in a full stop.
251/469 - When it says rope can be damaged by Fire, I don't think that needs to be uppercase.
251/469 - For tents, I think the common phrase is 'cubic meter', not 'meter cubed'.
252/469 - The description for Max Repel has Hours in uppercase.
253/469 - 'One-time-use' should be hyphened throughout.
255/469 - On Leftovers, the 'action' in 'Free action' is lowercase. On Black Sludge, it refers to 'not Poison-Typed' - while not incorrect, it should be 'Poison-Type' for consistency. Under Snacks, it also says 'Free action'.
255/469 - "A Pokémon or Trainer can only consume one snack portion per encounter," Not Scene? ...actually, hell. I don't think it says Scene anywhere in the PDF in this context.
256/469 - There's a sentence that says "don't can't". One of those should be removed. Under Miscellaneous Food, the fluff in 'Fluff-wise' should be lowercase.
257/469 - The yield rolls for some plants mention d3s. While d3s do exist, they aren't very common at all, as far as I know. And a d2 is...well, it's a coin, but that's immaterial. And though you can take the Yield Rolls once per day, it's very rare you'll even get a 1 on any of those without using Mulch - and with Apricorns, it's outright impossible to grow them without Mulch. Unless, of course, that is the intention... I'd recommend making 1 an 'average' roll, with 2 either being a good one and/or only possible with mulch.
259/469 - Does the Lum Berry cure any 1 status ailment, OR does it cure all status ailments present at the time?
261/469 - The Poffin Mixer blurb uses the phrase '+1 Die'. ...It seems awkward, though accurate. Would it look better if it was worded differently, like 'by 1 Contest Die', or 'by +1d6'?
261/469 - Under Poke Ball Tool Box, I think 'know-how' is a hyphenated word, rather than a compound one. Under Portable Grower, in one instance, 'grower' is lowercase.
267/469 - It says Everstone cannot be used by trainers. ...I didn't think trainers were capable of evolving. ...Unless this is Mystery Dungeon...
267/469 - On Iron Ball, Speed is in lowercase.
268/469 - Winter Cloak, and every item after Type Plate, is not in alphabetical order. This is more problematic for Winter Cloak than the others, which are unique items.
270/469 - Rare 'candies' is lowercase.
272/469 - This looks like only a minor alteration of the Gen 5 TM list. For example, TM19 is Roost in Gen 6, not Telekinesis, and I believe Quash was similarly replaced.
273/469 - It mentions Cleanse Tags tacked to a surface preventing Pokemon and Trainers up to 30 feet away from phasing through that surface. ...If they tried to phase through that surface, wouldn't they be less than 1 foot away anyway?
273/469 - The red box has 'cleanse tags' in lowercase.
273/469 - Pester Ball's blurb should say 'four varieties:' colon, instead of full stop.
274/469 - Aura Reader starts with 'These Pokemon', instead of 'These are Pokemon' (as-is, it is a fragment).
275/469 - Darkvision has 'capability' in lowercase. Gather Unown is described as an Ability, not a Capability. Groundshaper says the phrase 'At-will', and when describing the squares, the phrase 'Cardinally Adjacent' would be less wordy.
275etc/469 - Firestarter and Guster, etc. mention 'struggle Attacks', lowercase.
276/469 - Under Inflatable, it says inflatable in lowercase at one point, and 'blocking terrain' is in lowercase.
276/469 - There's a capability named Doxy?
277/469 - For Magnetic, an easier way to word it is "With this, they can repel or attract iron and/or steel..." Also, they should be able to discern magnetic north, not just north.
277/469 - For Pack Mon, it says 'will instantly be obey the user's commands' The be shouldn't be there.
278/469 - Shrinkable doesn't mention how to unshrink.
280/469 - Wired has Machine in uppercase at the end, when earlier it's in lowercase.
282/469 - Under Abominable, 'keyword' is in lowercase (it's uppercase most other places).
282/469 - Absorb Force should say 'resisted one step further', instead of 'one step less effective'. (See also Friend Guard.)
282/469 - Arena Trap has Trap in lowercase in the description.
283/469 - Beautiful says it can 'grain' 2 Beauty Dice (instead of gain).
283/469 - Under Blur, the 'an' is missing before 'Accuracy Check'.
283/469 - Under Bone Wielder, it lists a move as 'Bonerush'.
284/469 - Clear Body appears to prevent self-inflicted lowered combat stages. Is this intentional? (I'm guessing not, because White Smoke specifically excludes self-inflicted stages from being blocked.)
284/469 - Color Change appears to resolve before the move hits, rather than after. Is this intentional?
284/469 - Confidence has User in uppercase at one point.
285/469 - Corrosive Toxins has a full stop after Badly Poisoned, when there doesn't need to be one.
285/469 - Crush Trap's effect mentions that there is no attack roll. I believe that's supposed to say 'accuracy roll'.
287/469 - Dreamspinner reads 1/10th as '1/10h' instead (there's no T).
287/469 - Drown Out's trigger has Opponent in uppercase.
287/469 - In Dry Skin, Water-Type is hyphenated once, but in no other instance does Type get hyphenated here.
287/469 - Early Bird also appears to assist in Paralysis rolls as well, not just Sleep. Is this intentional?
287/469 - Under Effect Spore, asleep is lowercase, but Paralyzed and Poisoned are not.
287/469 - Enfeebling Lips has Lovely Kiss enclosed in quotes when it doesn't need to be. It also has combat stages in lowercase.
288/469 - Fiery Crash says 'Fire-Typed' instead of Type in one instance.
288/469 - Couldn't Filter just say 'resisted one step further'? Or does that only apply to moves that aren't super-effective? (See also Absorb Force, Friend Guard, Heat Proof, and a few others. Oh, and Solid Rock.)
288/469 - Flash Fire has 'Fire Type' not hyphenated in one instance.
288/469 - Haha, Fluffy Charge is Static. ...I'll show myself out.
289/469 - Under Flower Veil, Lowered is uppercase.
289/469 - Forecast should say '...and Rock Type if there is a Sandstorm.'
289/469 - Forewarn does not list a target.
289/469 - Fox Fire has Attacker in uppercase.
290/469 - Fur Coat needs to say 'one step further'.
290/469 - Does Gardener stack with Mulch?
290/469 - Gore has Meter in uppercase.
290/469 - Under Guts it says the user loses any combat stages gained this way. Flare Boost does not have that wording.
291/469 - I think Heat Proof is supposed to be one word (Heatproof).
291/469 - Hydration has User in uppercase in one instance.
291/469 - Ice Body mentions 'full Hit Points' instead of max Hit Points.
291/469 - Ice Shield says 'blocking terrain' (lowercase) and 'Ice Typed' (instead of Type).
292/469 - Iron Fist says 'increased' instead of increases.
292/469 - Klutz has 'at-will' in lowercase.
293/469 - Leaf Gift has 'Leaf suit' in lowercase at one point. It also says Vivrant instead of Vibrant.
293/469 - Leaf Guard has User in uppercase at one point.
293/469 - Leek Mastery mentions an item called a Stick. The item name as given in the PDF is Rare Leek, not Stick.
293/469 - Lightning Rod has User in uppercase at two points.
293/469 - Lullaby states it's activated as a 'Fee Action' (not Free). It also has Sing in quotes when it doesn't need to.
294/469 - Magic Bounce says 'offender' instead of attacker. Additionally, is the alteration of hazards incorporated as part of the ability as a Scene - Free Action, or is it Static?
294/469 - There's no space between Magnet Pull and Marvel Scale.
294/469 - Memory Wipe has Memory in uppercase at the end.
294/469 - Mini-Noses should say 'places them adjacent to it', it has 'shift' in lowercase at one point, and has 'Mini Noses' not hyphenated at one point.
295/469 - Mold Breaker has critical hits in lowercase.
295/469 - Moody should say 'to be lowered by -2 Combat Stages', instead of 'to be lower 2 Combat Stages'.
295/469 - Mud Dweller has Resistant in uppercase. It should probably also say 'resists Ground-Type and Water-Type Moves one step further', instead, for consistency.
295/469 - I'm curious about this, actually: if a Pokemon changes its type via Color Change, Multitype, or Protean to another type that's immune to a status - e.g. if a Poisoned Pokemon uses one of those abilities to change to a Poison-Type - is the status removed?
295/469 - No Guard has melee in lowercase at one point.
296/469 - Parental Bond has 'may commanded' and 'may be Commanded' instead of 'may be commanded', the word 'Mother' is uppercase at one point, and this is the only time I've seen 'for the remainder of the Scene' instead of encounter.
296/469 - Pack Hunt mentions a Melee Attack, instead of Move.
296/469 - Poison Heal mentions full Hit Points instead of Max Hit Points.
299/469 - There is no space between Rivalry and Rock Head.
299/469 - Sand Veil does not protect the user from sandstorm damage. Is this intentional? (I don't think it is, because Snow Cloak specifically mentions the user.)
299/469 - Sap Sipper doesn't appear to trigger on Status-class Grass-type moves. Is this intentional? (In the VG, Leech Seed triggers Sap Sipper.)
299/469 - Scrappy should say Ghost Types rather than Ghosts.
299/469 - Sequence has electric type in lowercase, and should probably say 'cardinally adjacent' for clarity.
300/469 - Shield Dust has accuracy roll in lowercase.
301/469 - Snow Warning should instead say 'The Weather changes to Hail'.
301/469 - Solar Power can combine those two sentences into one.
301/469 - Soothing Tone has Heal Bell in quotes. (A lot of abilities do, apparently, but Dire Spore and a few others don't.)
301/469 - For Soulstealer, it should say the user can remove all Injuries from itself, not themselves.
301/469 - Soundproof could just say 'immune to moves with the Sonic Keyword'.
301/469 - Spinning Dance's trigger should say it, not is. Its effect has the status conditions in lowercase.
302/469 - Under Stance Change, it mentions Aegislash's forms as Stances, though under the Living Weapon Capability, it calls it a forme. Which is it?
302/469 - Storm Drain has User in uppercase twice and The in uppercase once, all separate.
303/469 - Strong Jaw has Hyperfang as 1 word instead of 2.
303/469 - I'm sorry, Sturdy Shedinja, but you won't get away that easily.
303/469 - Sway mentions a Melee Attack instead of Move (or attack).
303/469 - Tangled Feet is listed as a Trigger, instead of Static.
303/469 - Targeting System does not have Lock On hyphenated in one instance.
304/469 - Telepathy and Perception appear to be identical, word-for-word. Is this intentional?
304/469 - Thick Fat has Resistant in uppercase.
304/469 - Thrust has push keyword in lowercase.
304/469 - There's no space between Tinted Lens and Tochukaso.
304/469 - Tough Claws has the word 'gains' when it shouldn't be there.
304/469 - Toxic Boost has the same problem as Flare Boost. See also Guts.
305/469 - Unaware has the word 'it' when it shouldn't be there.
305/469 - Unburden says 'their' instead of 'its'.
305/469 - Vicious has the 'choose one' in the text itself, but Teleporter says 'choose one effect' in the bold tag. Which is correct? Also, 'choose one effect' should be followed by a colon, and 'increase' should be 'increases'.
306/469 - Wash Away has 'All' in uppercase at one point.
306/469 - Water Veil is the only ability that says Keyword: Immune; Effect: _____. All other abilities along that vein simply say 'The user is immune to ______'.
306/469 - Weak Armor says 'Defense Combat Stage', instead of just 'Defense'.
307/469 - Under Wishmaster, 'one of the following effects' should be followed by a colon instead of a semicolon.
307/469 - Wobble has reaction in lowercase. Also, I thought those moves were Reactions already?
307/469 - Given how its effect is written, Zen Mode should be Static, rather than At-Will - Free Action (since that is already implied in the text itself). Also, in its effect, 'free action' is lowercase in two instances.
308/469 - NEEDS MORE DEAD ESPURRS
308/469 - Under Type:, Poison is missing.
309/469 - Under Range:, area of effect is not hyphenated when it usually is
309/469 - Under Effect:, accuracy roll is lowercase. Also, it should say 'or' instead of 'of' in 'a certain number of higher'.
310/469 - Under the Blessing Keyword blurb, it says its instead if it's.
312/469 - Under the Recoil Keyword blurb, the word A is uppercase when it shouldn't be.
316/469 - Attack Order's DB is given as 8, instead of 9. On that note, its frequency should be EOT instead of At-Will. (See Leaf Blade on page 351.)
316/469 - It's not as obvious that Fury Cutter caps at DB 16. It says it in the 'for example' text, but the first sentence doesn't imply any cap.
317/469 - On Powder, it doesn't imply that the Fire-type attack gets cancelled - it causes an explosion, but the attack goes through anyway. Is this intentional?
318/469 - Sticky Web is given as a Physical move instead of a Status one.
321/469 - Knock Off's class is given as "Static", instead of Physical.
321/469 - Memento's frequency is given as Scene x1 (rather than just Scene).
322/469 - Text on Night Daze's effect should be "Night Daze lowers the target's Accuracy by -1 on 13+."
322/469 - Payback does not list the figure for Damage Base 10. (As a comparison, Assurance does list its improved DB number.)
322/469 - Punishment's Damage Base does not have a space before the forward slash.
324/469 - Dragon Rage lists its damage base as "None, see effect", while its counterpart Sonic Boom lists its own damage base as "Special".
327/469 - Ion Deluge has the Priority keyword AND has the word 'Priority' as part of its effect (the latter is unnecessary). Mach Punch and a few other moves have the same issue, and not all moves with Priority keyword do this.
328/469 - Thunder's range for paralysis is given as only 19+, instead of 15+.
330/469 - When it says "Switching or being knocked out both end this effect" under Fairy Lock, that only applies to the user of Fairy Lock doing that, right? It appears unclear.
331/469 - The last sentence of Moonlight says 'their full Hit Point value' instead of 'its'.
332/469 - Close Combat does not spell out "CS" as Combat Stage.
333/469 - Final Gambit does not have its Class listed (it's Special). The effect text also has the word 'deals' twice in a row. Also, it says 'point of health' when it could just as easily say 'Hit Point'.
334/469 - High Jump Kick should say '1/4th of its max Hit Points'. I don't think '1/4rd' is a thing. It also appears to be missing the Dash keyword.
335/469 - Quick Guard causes the move to miss, though all other Shield moves simply negate all effects and damage of the attack. Is this intentional?
336/469 - Seismic Toss's Class is listed as Status instead of Physical.
336/469 - Sky Uppercut's effect states it may be used as an Interrupt, but it doesn't have the Interrupt keyword.
336/469 - Secret Sword is a Special move, not a Physical one. It should be altered to say it calculates against the target's Defense stat instead of what it says now. (See Psyshock.)
337/469 - Wake-Up Slap's wording is odd. It should probably say 'Wake-Up Slap has a Damage Base of 10 (XdY+Z / ??) instead'.
338/469 - Blaze Kick's DB is given as 8, instead of 9.
340/469 - Flare Blitz has the Push keyword, but no Push distance is given.
341/469 - Magma Storm's DB is given as 10, instead of 12.
343/469 - Gust and Hurricane neglect to mention being airborne from the move Bounce. (Twister and Thunder also neglect to mention this, but Sky Uppercut does not.)
343/469 - It states that Mirror Move can't miss. Does that mean the move it copies also can't miss? I assume not, but it is unclear.
344/469 - Sky Drop's effect erroneously hyphenates '25-meters'.
346/469 - Curse (Ghost)'s effect text states that it has a frequency of Battle (instead of Scene).
348/469 - Shadow Force's effect text is missing that it ignores any Shield moves, etc. (See Phantom Force, which does have this text.)
353/469 - Synthesis: See Moonlight. Also, Morning Sun.
356/469 - Rototiller mentions all Grass-type Pokemon in the area, rather than the burst.
357/469 - Avalanche doesn't have the Priority keyword, but Revenge does. Is this intentional?
357etc/469 - The resolution effect of Freeze Shock and Ice Burn both say "The user uses ________'s attack", where the _________ is the name of the attack itself.
359/469 - Mist has the Blessing keyword? Huh, interesting. Thought it would still be a Coat. It's not really mentioned much, e.g. by Sage's Benediction (Medium) or the Blessing keyword blurb itself.
361/469 - Bestow's AC is listed as --, instead of None. It also doesn't have the keyword 'Swift Action' named beforehand.
361/469 - Body Slam's DB is given as 10, instead of 9.
363/469 - Disable's effect text says 'Spite' instead of Disable.
364/469 - So, if Echoed Voice was used 1 turn ago, AND the turn before that, is its damage base increased by 12? Looks like it.
364/469 - Egg Bomb has AC 6 DB 10 and it's only Scene x2? With an AC that bad, why not just make it EOT?
365/469 - Facade mentions a 'Persistent Status effect'. It should say 'Affliction' instead of effect.
365/469 - Feint has no distance listed under Range; is this intentional?
369/469 - Last Resort's class is given as Special, instead of Physical.
369/469 - Leer should say 'all legal targets', since Cone 2 can hit more than 1 thing.
370/469 - Mega Punch's frequency is "At Will", not hyphenated.
371/469 - Natural Gift's class is given as Special, instead of Physical.
372/469 - Foresight has two Ranges given. Only the 2nd one should be there.
372/469 - So, how many metal coins does Pay Day scatter, anyway? It doesn't say. There isn't enough information given on this move.
373/469 - Razor Wind has the "Set -Up" Keyword (there's a space in the middle).
375/469 - Round says it gains 2 DB for each use of Round this round (say that 3 times fast). Does that include itself?
375/469 - Come to think of it, Blessing moves have both the Blessing keyword and the word 'Blessing' at the start of the move's effect (much like Priority). Why is this?
376/469 - Secret Power's class is given as Special, instead of Physical.
376/469 - The first sentence in Shell Smash's effect is missing a full stop.
376/469 - Simple Beam gets to choose what ability it replaces, but Worry Seed replaces a random one. Is this intentional?
376/469 - Skull Bash's resolution effect states that "the user may attack with Skull Bash", implying it's optional. No other Set-up move does this.
377/469 - Sleep Talk's effect doesn't say that it will fail if the move chosen at random is Rest - unless that's implied to fail. (There are a few other moves Sleep Talk can't pick, but Rest is the most important one.) It also says it can only be used by sleeping "targets", rather than "users" (see Snore).
377/469 - Smelling Salts says that its DB is doubled (under its effect), but doesn't state the number (DB14) or the die roll (Retaliate does).
378/469 - Is Splash's jump effect a Long Jump or a High Jump?
379/469 - Swallow's effect states "If the user is Stockpiled 1..." etc., rather than "If the user's Stockpiled count is 1...". (See Spit Up.)
380/469 - Tackle's DB is given as 4 instead of 5, and its AC is given as 3 instead of 2.
380/469 - Tail Whip should say "all legal targets..." etc. (See also Leer.)
380/469 - Techno Blast's DB is given as 12, instead of 9. It also appears to be influenced by Plates and not just Drives; is this intentional?
381/469 - Trump Card's AC is given as 2; is this intentional? (In the VG, it can't miss.)
381/469 - Uproar's DB is given as 5, instead of 9; is this intentional?
383/469 - Acid's effect states it lowers the target's Defense, instead of Special Defense.
383/469 - Acid Spray's effect says targets' instead of target's.
385/469 - The last sentence of Sludge Wave's effect has no verb in it: "You may not (   ) a specific target more than once per use of Sludge Wave."
388/469 - What if the target of Future Sight is no longer on the field? (See also Doom Desire.)
389/469 - Since Heal Pulse's range is given as "6, 1 Target", it's already implied that the user can't target itself.
389/469 - Can the user be 1 of the 2 targets for Heart Swap? Its effect does not say so. I think this may be an oversight.
390/469 - Kinesis' effect says that the "triggering attack roll" receives a -4 penalty, rather than the "triggering accuracy roll".
390/469 - Lunar Dance's range is given as 8, instead of "8, 1 Target".
391/469 - Mist Ball's range is given as 12, while Luster Purge's is only 8. Is this intentional?
392/469 - Psystrike's frequency is EOT instead of Scene x2; is this intentional?
394/469 - The last sentence of Trick's effect says 'the' instead of 'it'; "it still can gain the other target's held item".
394/469 - Wonder Room's effect is missing the word 'stats' when talking about Defense and Special Defense.
396/469 - Rollout has a cap and Ice Ball doesn't. Is this intentional?
398/469 - The text of Autotomize has the phrase "If yo the user can,".
399/469 - Iron Tail's effect range is given as 19+, instead of 15+.
399/469 - Metal Claw's range is missing "1 Target".
401/469 - I think Brine's DB becomes 13 instead of 14 when its condition is met.
401/469 - I could swear Crabhammer is supposed to have DB 9, and not 10... I could be wrong, though!
402/469 - Muddy Water's DB is both given as 9, instead of 10. (Sludge Wave has it as the correct 10, and the two moves have the same effect.) Surf, however, is correct at 9.
402/469 - Rain Dance's effect lists it increasing or decreasing DB by 50%, whereas Sunny Day has the increase/decrease as a flat 2. Which is correct? I would assume Sunny Day has the correct effect.
403/469 - Razor Shell's DB is given as 7, instead of 8.
403/469 - Water Shuriken has the Priority keyword, but unlike other moves of its ilk, its effect is listed as 'None', instead of giving the priority condition. Its AC is also given as 4 instead of 2.
405/469 - Combat Stage's blurb says that it is "often abbreviated as CS in many moves and abilities". However, the only move/ability in the PDF that abbreviates it this way is Close Combat.
405/469 - EOT's blurb is missing the word "that" after "Frequency".
405/469 - Hit Points' blurb spells "derived" with an extra R, and it defines it as "a value derrived [sic] from Hit Points" - it uses its own term to define itself. This should be reworded. The blurb on HP also spells derived with the extra R.
406/469 - It's 'wacky', not whacky.
406/469 - The punctuation going into the list of campaign settings should be a colon, not a semicolon.
407/469 - The sentence says "How is the League and championship structured?" It should be are, not is.
407/469 - It mentions 'Elite 4' (with a number), but it's written as 'Elite Four' (with a word) further down the page.
407/469 - Under Combat Emphasis, it asks if combat is going to be a part of 'my campaign', rather than 'your campaign'.
409/469 - One-on-one is usually hyphenated throughout. It's 3 times on this page, and two-on-two is here once.
410/469 - At the bottom left of this page, the last 'sentence' is actually a fragment and should be joined with the sentence right before it.
413/469 - A forest mentions 'Hoothoots, Spinaraks, Hoppips, etc.', though for Pokemon names, the singular and plural forms are the same.
413/469 - The stretch "Save the pseudo-legendaries......with odd electromagnetic activity" should all be 1 large sentence; currently it's 1 small sentence with 2 fragments.
413/469 - lol Google; Psypoke master race
414/469 - Magnemites and Voltorbs? See my note on Hoothoots.
414/469 - Dragons should have 'easy-to-meet' biological requirements.
415/469 - There's an unnecessary 'this' in the 1st sentence.
416/469 - Darumaka is misspelt as 'Darumakka'. This happens on the next page as well.
416/469 - The "Cave" heading is at the bottom of the 1st column, but the list starts at the top of the 2nd. It looks weird.
417/469 - Amoonguss is misspelt as 'Amoongus'.
418/469 - I could be wrong, but I think 'Sligoo' should have 2 Gs, not 1. This happens on page 420 also.
419/469 - Conkeldurr is misspelt as 'Conkledurr'.
419/469 - Aggron is listed right before Lairon instead of right after it, on the leftmost column.
419/469 - Darmanitan is misspelt as 'Darmantian', and Darumaka has 2 Ks again.
419/469 - Alomomola is mispelt as 'Alomoloma'. Right above it, Luvdisc is misspelt as 'Luvdsic'.
422/469 - There's a comma and a full stop next to each other, near the bottom left of the page.
423/469 - Again...it's wacky, not whacky.
423/469 - Time-consuming should be hyphenated.
424-425/469 - I felt like I just read the transcript to an episode of Jeeves & Wooster.
426/469 - That 2nd sentence is actually a fragment.
426/469 - "For a great many campaigns, what we outlined in the Character Creation chapter is appropriate." That should end in a colon, because FRAGMENT
427/469 - where are the 8 other types you racist >:O
429/469 - Under the Milestone section, under Pokemon World War, destroyed is misspelt as 'destoryed'.
430/469 - Wait, isn't that the Investor picture? haha they got turned into wealthy parents
431/469 - PokeMart's Commonly list has an unneeded comma at the end.
432/469 - Hatchers blurb states that their Pkmn Edu level "affects the effects of Birthright". While this isn't wrong, it does look a bit odd when read.
435/469 - 'Catch-all' should be hyphenated.
435/469 - Cachet? Is that a word?
435/469 - It refers to Crystal Onix as 'Onyx' at one point.
436/469 - "just like Pidgey can't learn Fly" Unless 1.04 changed something, I think it still can.
438/469 - "Such trials are useful not only for giving Trainers Mega Rings." should probably end in a semicolon to transition into the next sentence; also, the next sentence mentions "a similar trials".
439/469 - It's 'foresee', not 'forsee'. If memory serves, only 'forgo' can forgo the E, pun intended.
439/469 - In the pink box, the repair in "Poke Ball repair" is lowercase instead of uppercase.
441/469 - This page refers to both "Significance Modifier" and "Significance Multiplier". While they're the same thing, the term used for it isn't consistent.
443/469 - Why are Tax and Threaten written in uppercase for this entire page?
444/469 - 'Unilluminated meter' has two full stops after it.
446/469 - wow I was right. It IS the zoofbat.
449/469 - Wacky, not whacky. I know I've said this before...
450/469 - Under Pokemon Eggs, 'Especially' is uppercase when it shouldn't be.
451/469 - You use Gym themes? Please; I give each individual Pokemon its own theme. Get on my level!
453/469 - One of her Pokemon is level 41 to the 40 of the others, but that could be intentional.
461/469 - Last paragraph, it says 'mecanical' (no H).
464/469 - In the bit about a Pokemon's Rarity, it says 'Shiny Pokemon and subtract'. The and shouldn't be there.


...And that's it!
