Ability, Item, and Move Effect prose entries have "XXX" placeholder values #258

Open cmmartti opened 5 years ago

cmmartti commented 5 years ago

Some of the prose entries for abilities, items, and move effects are placeholder values. For example, in ability_prose.csv:

ability_id,local_language_id,short_effect,effect
233,9,XXX new effect for neuroforce,XXX new effect for neuroforce

Patches welcome :)

Yeah, I planned on submitting a patch, but I created this issue in case I forgot. What are the preferred data sources? I can copy them manually from Bulbapedia, unless there are better places.

It's good to look at a variety of sources. Smogon is generally pretty reliable for battle effects. Bulbapedia is okay too, though take anything they say with a grain of salt. Manual testing may be in order if you find contradictory sources.
