Seen, But Not Caught

Post by Ryan659 »

Yesterday I noticed that when I hatched an egg from Elm, it didn't register in my Pokédex. I'm assuming that was fixed to some extent when I say this, but when I checked just now it now registers as seen, but not caught.

There were some problems with the Pokédex that unfortunately weren't caught in testing. I've been fixing and testing it this morning and it appears this problem has been fixed. I hatched a Caterpie that I already had and my Pokédex did nothing; I then hatched a Skarmory which I hadn't seen and it registered as caught. This is expected behaviour. It will register as seen in your Pokédex if you've interacted with it.

To fix your problem you can either: hatch another Skarmory, trade/trade back with a trusted user or give me your Trainer Number and I'll register it as caught for you. Hopefully this should no longer be a problem.

The Pokémon hatched yesterday still registers as just seen, however an egg hatched today registers as caught, for some reason.

Trainer number: 5416

Note: The Pokémon in question that won't register as caught is a Whismur.

That's because the fix was applied this morning.

I'll register your Whismur as caught.

How did you obtain the Pokémon that did not register as seen?

I've been altering the Pokédex function this evening so if the problem happens again please tell me but for now I've fixed your Pokédex to make all Pokémon you've caught register as seen.

All of my Pokemon in my Pokedex are in full color, rather they are seen or caught, and I have the understanding from what it says that the ones caught are in full color and the ones seen are faded but do appear. Any ideas if this is a problem or not? Thank you for any answers :)

Unless of course it's saying you've caught a pokemon you actually haven't...if not and the only pokemon in your pokedex are the ones you have caught then I guess there is no issue ^^'

If your Pokédex shows all Pokémon as being coloured in regardless of whether they are seen or caught then the browser you are using probably doesn't support the fade CSS property. Another way to distinguish between seen and caught Pokémon is animation. Seen Pokémon are static while caught Pokémon are animated.
