When reading through Bulbapedia, especially for upcoming events/episodes I would love to be able to read or click a link to the source that this information comes from like on regular Wikipedia.

Nowhere on Bulbapedia are sources cited and I was wondering why is this, and can it be changed?
 
The vast majority of information on Bulbapedia comes directly from the primary sources, including (but not limited to); the Pokémon video games, Pokémon anime series, the multitude of Pokémon manga, and the Pokémon Trading Card Game. That sort of information, we don't cite back to any external site, since it doesn't come from an external site and it looks silly to cite something back to one of our own articles.

Information that comes solely from a third-party source, we have been working to improve the citations. So please bear with us as we improve the citations of such content, and you can always offer citations to us that we can include.

Thank you for your concerns & support of Bulbapedia.
