Outdated Pokemon menu sprites in articles

[superjustinbros]

As of this writing, there are a few instances on Bulbapedia that use Gen III-V menu sprites instead of the newer Gen VI sprites.

If you go onto a page showing a Pokemon that appears in a publication (anime/manga), the evolution chart on the "AnimePokémonInfobox" was never updated to the Gen VI icons, and the multiple "Trainer's Pokémon templates" also use the old icons for the first section (the one shown by default).

Certain parts of the Wiki also use the original TM/HM sprites from Gen III-V, with the only TM/HM sprite to be it's Gen VI version is the Fairy Type TM, as it's the only one that didn't exist prior to Gen VI.

The only exception to this are Pokemon introduced in generation VI, since they never had a Gen III-V menu sprite.

@superjustinbros; We're aware of these inconsistencies and do plan to fix them up so they're all using consistent sprites. However, these are significantly minor changes from a content standpoint and will have to wait until the majority of the "ORAS rush" has been completed.

Thank you for your interest in Bulbapedia!

Thank you for the response. I assume this goes true for the "Stadium" games not including Colosseum and XP as well, since Pokemon's sprites used in articles relating to one game switch between two generations; the generation that "Stadium" game was released in, and Generation V.

I'll give the full list of examples.

*Trainers in Stadium show Pokemon with Generation V sprites, though the Rental Pokemon pages instead show Pokemon with Generation I sprites.
*The same can also be said for Stadium 2, but with Gen II's back sprites instead of Gen I's front sprites in the Stadium 2 Rental Pokemon pages.
*Trainers in Battle Revolution show Pokemon with a mix of Gen IV and Gen V sprites, mostly Gen V. (Mysterial's page shows his "Masters Battle set 8" team with Gen IV sprites while all his other teams have Gen V sprites, while Terrell's "Stargazer Colosseum" team shows Gen IV sprites and the other two teams with Gen V sprites.)
