Spelling Mistakes


Hello, I'm Riako - from Germany. I'm the programmer of this browser game!
But why do I tell you that?
Because of one reason: English is not my mother tongue!
I'm trying hard at school to improve my English as best as possible, but it's still not good enough to avoid every spelling mistake all around this site.

So if you ever find any spelling mistake all around this game, please report them here!
(Also grammar mistakes, of course.)

One of the things I've noticed is the Easy, Medium, Rare on pokemon Rarity. It seems like it should be Common, Un-Common, Rare. It would just sound better.

I just noticed a small grammatical error, doesn't matter but it says Prof. Rowans Lab in the tab name. Should be Prof. Rowan's Lab.

I'm not quite sure about the Rarity-thing... I just like it :| I mean... "Easy" just means "easy to find". Which is also some kind of a rarity information, isn't it?

errors in friendlist

0 users have added you to their friendlist yet.

the word "yet" is used only if there is a negative term in the sentence

it should be:
0 users have added you to their friendlist
(or)
No user have added you to their friendlist yet.

at Daycare

Howdy! Welcome at the Pokémon-Daycare!

I've owned this Daycare for over 40 years now - and I think you can really trust me when it's about caring for your Pokémon! You can leave up to 2 Pokémon simultaneously here so I can raise them. It costs you only 50 Pokédollar per Pokémon for every started hour. Please always pay in advance since I've had bad experiences with that. If your credit is smaller than 50 Pokédollar, your Pokémon won't earn any further EXP.
And sometimes your Pokémon may breed eggs. I don't know how it works - but they just appear! You can visit me and take those eggs from time to time, but I gift every untaken egg to Prof. Rowans Lab after 24 hours. Those eggs are very sensitive and need a Trainer to take care of them...

In the Emera Mall, item shop image, it says:
"All what you need!"

This should be "All that you need!" or "All you need!"

If you can read this, you know how to read.

PokéDex Entry: It grips prey with its pincers until the prey is torn in half. What it can\\'t tear, it tosses far.

When an auction ends it says

[it is more of a couple of grammar errors, but still.]
Santa Bird's PokéDex entry:

Santa Bird's are assistants of Santa Claus. They fly with gifts all over the world to deliver them to children on christmas.

Should it be read as...

Santa Birds are assistants of Santa Claus. They fly with gifts all over the world to deliver them to children on Christmas.

Good evening, XyChrus, want to hear a short story?
A few days ago, I went to the Emera Mall because I wanted to buy some berries, when suddenly this strong earthquake erupted!
I was a bit scared at first, but then I ran out of the building to see what was happening. I saw this gigantic Pokémon in the distance - it was red and had dark stripes on its back. I've never seen such a Pokémon before!
Unfortunately it was too far away and I couldn't see any details, but I'm sure it's not gone for ever. Though I've heard people talking about it, they said this Pokémon lives in a deep cave that is completely filled with boiling lava!!
They might exaggerate a bit, but I'd really like to find out more about this mysterious species. 

I think it should be Forever instead of for ever

When you try to send a Valentine's Card but you don't have the right amount of sweet hearts this message will appear
"You don't have enough Pokédollar to send this card!" isn't it suppose to be
"You don't have enough Sweet Hearts to send this card!"

Title: Correction & extra advice

@shiloh_kawaii_pika

Correction; it should actually be breeze, because it is a singular breeze, not multiple. If you wanted breezes, then it would be phrased "The sky is full of clouds and strong breezes are blowing from the seaside."

Also, if shiloh copied and pasted this, which is likely, then adding "in" between 'blowing' and 'from' will improve the grammatic- uh, grammar.

For the Philippine flag...

"**username** comes from the Philippines" should be the correct one

not **username** comes from Philippines like this It just sounds so wrong


It's for the Philippine flag only so far i've notice, thanks!

Quote from WonderTrade
Welcome to our Wonder Trade Station! Set up any of your Pokémon and receive a random Pokémon from another trainer. You can never know what you get.

It should go a little something like this:

Welcome to our Wonder Trade Station! Set up any of your Pokémon and receive a random Pokémon from another trainer. You'll never know what you get.


Alternatively, instead of You'll, You can use You will.
However, this will also mean Editing another Word.
"You'll never know what you will get."
OR
"You will never know what you will get."
OR
"You will never know what you'll get."

Sorry for the Excessive use of "OR", but the Combinations are Endless~

When in the lab when it's lighting out it reads:

"Wow, look outside! Did you see that lightning?
Normally I visit the Emera Mall every Saturday to get some food and necessary items from the stores. But this horrible weather makes it currently impossible to go out!
I hope it will be sunny again soon. Take care of you when you go outside. "

The very last sentence doesn't quite make any sense. It should read something like:
"Wow, look outside! Did you see that lightning?
Normally I visit the Emera Mall every Saturday to get some food and necessary items from the stores. But this horrible weather makes it currently impossible to go out!
I hope it will be sunny again soon. Take care of yourself when venturing outside!"

The rich and beautiful Princess from Emera Town is preparing a great feast in her palace, and every Pokémon Trainer is warmly invited to join! It's a surprise that the Princess now opens the doors of her palace, because usually no one is allowed to get close to her except from her service employees. Everyone in Emera Town is excited for this Event - especially after the latest rumors around the Royal Family. It is rumored that the Princess and her mother, the Queen, are no actual human beings - but Pokémon!?
The new Royal Event Distribution starts on Monday, June 15th.

Also don't forget to participate in our Rayquaza Plushie Event at the Dream World Shop! Until June 30th you have time to spend some Dream Points at the Store in order to claim your own limited Rayquaza Plushie.
