Pardon me, I'm having a bit of trouble parsing the first part of what you said.
Though, I am interested in what others think about the idea of "Possibly" for HM/TM moves on profiles.

it's just that no verse fails to give abilities to a species because it is something situational(Ex: TMs/HMs)[As far as I understand this is the reason for not having TMs/HMs in the profiles] if that something "situational" is something that any member of this species can get; yes it can be indexed in the profiles and with Pokémon should not be different.

sorry but does anyone know if there is anyone who is aware of the reasons why we don't index TMs/HMs and if so is he active on the wiki to see the message above?

I think this is a valid question.
Slowpoke
Slowpoke is a water and psychic type Pokémon found mainly in Kanto. It is known to be a very slow and lazy Pokémon, spending most of its time laying near water sources and fishing. Slowbro is one of the evolution of Slowpoke. After having a Shellder bites onto its tail and injects a kind of...

It's just the curse of outdated Pokemon profiles I think

The main idea is that the Pokemon profiles are species, so they can only index stuff available to wild Pokemon. The games never state they can't learn TMs, though they say that Pokemon can't use manmade items which would include TMs, and some early TCG art shows that TMs moves are linked to poke ball technology. Wild Pokemon are also not shown using TM moves in the anime or manga, with maybe a couple of rare exceptions over 25+ years, and certainly aren't in the games (bar Mystery Dungeon).

Iron Valiant seems like an interesting choice for a new pokémon profile.

I mean, there are a lot of Pokemon without profiles that could be interesting.

I mean even if they're not interesting they should still be profiled

Link to the post on Twitter.
This news is kind of old (From April 3rd), but apparently, Nintendo, Creatures & GameFreak have registered 2 new trademarks in Japan:
ワイルドフォース (Wild Force)
サイバージャッジ (Cyber Judge)
Would all these companies do a patent if it's just a TCG/OCG set? Do these sound like TCG names?
On the other hand, these don't seem to read like Paradox Pokemon names, & if these are Paradox Pokemon names, it's a start break from trend to not see any "Iron" in one of them, which'd be "Tetsuno" in Japanese. IIRC, written like this: テツノ
As an example, Iron Leaves was:
テツノイサハ
Tetsunoisaha.
So if these are Paradox Pokemon names, yet a Paradox Form of something like Virizon didn't get to have a name without "Iron", then what could this be to warrant the name structure change?
Or did they finally realize how much fans hated Future Paradox Pokemon always having "Iron" in their names?

TCG I guess

Yeah, I've been dreading that possibility, despite how likely that that seems.

Due to the new profile standards, couldn't spin-offs like Quest or Dash get their own profiles using their own scaling? For some reason, I really like making profiles for "alternate canons", and wanna do some for Pokémon. Kinda like how Detective Pikachu has its own canon and thus doesn't using game/anime/Manga scaling
- 9,007

Which new standards?
ShockingPsychic

These, mainly the part that says:
- (Side games) generally shouldn't be considered canon at all.
- Usually have wildly different feats for their Pokemon. A good example is Mega Blastoise being able to destroy a mountain in Pokken Tournament.

I’ve been thinking, shouldn’t tyrantrums scale above Mega aero? tyrantrums pokedex entries stated it was invincible back then/nobody could stop it/king of the ancient world. Mega aeros are stated to be the original way aerodactyls were, with a normal aero simply being incompletely restored.

I'll wait for more people to weigh in on this. As is, we scale Megas higher than fully evolved Pokemon, & this would be considered an outlier/inconsistency in the evolutionary stage stat scaling system.
