Oh yeah screenshots are great for research, i'm starting to take some now. :V I always take notes, but they're usually a mess. :P Anywho, on to the next Pokemon A! For now i'm only posting it's German counterpart, i'll post the other versions later. (It's late here, so i'll post them after work tomorrow.) Also now with a nice looking template! :V

Nice, though something for help with research and the speed at which it can become useful:
It'd be nice to document the starting moves of each glitch pokemon (The ones the Pokemon knows if caught at level 0) as well as anything it might try to evolve into.
The way the glitchdex has those names and take pictures of them is by using UNFILTERED 2x rendering on the overworld (not in battle or in caves) and then crop with an image editor so the dimensions are a multiple of 8 in width and 16px in height (ex. 32x16 would mean a glitch with a 4 character long name). Your picture is currently mis-scaled as you can tell by the weirdness/antialiasing effect on the C as well as the rightmost glitch character. Make sure to also remove any traces of the pink color the game uses and replace it with solid white, this is done so it looks better on the glitchdex.
I don't see any reason why we shouldn't include foreign game glitch pokemon and projects to the site anymore since Gen I/II US versions have been almost completely documented and we're now a wiki. There was a time where we discouraged such research until we had the English versions documented and now I can safely say we have them pretty much documented.
