Just as a quick note, STARS ARE NOT DEAD PLANETS, I didn't realize the insanity had settled in that early, but I figured I'd address and pin that here. In addition, Lapras eats fish in the Ultra Moon Pokedex, and Kyurem is rumored to eat people, just small things to note and hopefully people read this as to not be misinformed. Abra in the Sun dex is stated to eat berries in trees Skitty COULD be an ambush predator as many cats actually are Orbeetle could be eating small bugs as ladybugs do eat aphids And many apes/monkeys are omnivores as they do eat PLENTY of bugs In addition, Victini is noted in the research notes, but I didn't mention that it technically isn't a part of the food chain. That V for Victory makes it win every battle and breaks the system, making it rival Arceus The only reason I know some of these now is due to the kind constructive criticism and comments of YOU! Thank you!

A great many issues here, the biggest I've noticed so far are saying stars are planets and the conflation of autotrophs with chemotrophs. When an organism breaks down things like minerals of rocks or target specific chemicals that are abundant in certain areas (like sulfur in volcanic regions or hydro-thermal vents), we don't call those autotrophs; we specifically call them chemotrophs.

@KrillikVA
