If you were to organize episodes any which way...

How would you do it?

This is a Bulbapedia thing, but I'm ducking into Anime because I'm working on--well, this (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Anime/TestPage). It's going to be a list of all Anime episodes, and links to their respective episode guides.

But that sort of runs me into a problem. I can make as many lists as--well, anyone wants. So how should the lists be created other than by season? By character appearance--say, for instance, "All episodes naming, featuring, or mentioning Tracey? By battle, gym battle, capture, release, what-have you.

I don't really know what useful--and simply novel--ways there are in which you'd like to see the episodes arranged and organized. So I'm asking for your input, if you wouldn't mind. How would you like to see the episodes listed on Bulbagarden?
 
Lists can easily be made using categories. What will be interesting will be not just a list, but a table of relevant information for each query.
 
Seeing the Bulbapedia page as a reference:

List of episodes with Pokemon captures.
List of episodes with Gary/Shigeru.
List of Indigo League episodes.
List of Orange League episodes.
List of Johto League episodes.
List of Whirl League episodes. (yes, there would be a gap in the Johto listing. who cares.)
List of Hoenn League episodes.
List of Kanto Battle Frontier episodes.
List of Contest episodes.
 
in season order so it would make sense and it would be easy to find a episode that i want to watch
 
I thought the Anime section on Bulbapedia primarily used English names for things with English Names, so shouldn't it be List of Meowth's Boss Fantasies?
 
No, no - the point was that so many episodes have them, so it may as well be a list of fantasies than a list of episodes.
 
For a while I've been longing for a way to list in each PokéDex entry the episodes in which that particular Pokémon appeared. I can't do it without some sort of list, though.

Yes, we can do that. (FireEmblemPrideSP pretty much spelt out how to do it,) but we are discussing more novel ways to do it.

Let's see....

Episodes with Pokémon X
Episodes with Pokémon Y other than a main character's Pokémon Y
(The second one would be better for Pokémon like Pikachu.)

Episodes that explore the setting of the animé
(such as "Holy Matrimony" or "The Blue Badge of Courage")

Episodes with Govanni, other than in Meowth's fantasies
Episodes with Team Rocket members other than Jessie/James/Meowth

Episodes that are not resolved in one part
(such as "Talkin' 'Bout an Evolution"/"Rage of Innocence" or "Groudon vs. Kyogre")

Episodes that make us want to kick 4Kids
("Legend of Thunder", etc)
 
Argy, that would be feasable if we had a list, for every given episode, we had a list of PKMN that appear. Which wouldn't be very easy at all.

But then we'd have to have "Episodes that make us praise them" and we'd get all the dub bashers coming out of the woodwork.

Could we classify episodes by type? I know the show has a certain genre, but maybe episodes that deviate from that, like more dramatic episodes, etc.
 
Once again, I must stress objectivity. Lists concerning qualities which are up to debate, like 4Kids's goof-ups, do not belong in an encyclopedia.

There should problably be a list of Gym Battle episodes, as well. For all the seasons put together.
 
Evolutions should be included on the capture list as well. Or on it's own list.
 
-List of episodes with Crooked/Magikarp Salesman

-List of episodes where someone is in danger of falling off bridge/going over waterfall =/
