[edit] Usage

This tag adds images to Category:Pokémon art.

This template has the option of specifying the title that is used to organize the image in its category. For example, with Image:124jynx.png you could type:

{{PokeArt|Jynx}}

The image would be listed under J instead of 1.

With some images, like Image:Exploud.png, this is not necessary and you can feel free to transclude the template without any parameters. This is also recommended for images without descriptive names, like Image:388.png. The alternative is to save a version of the image, upload it under a new, more descriptive title, and then request the old image to be deleted as redundant.
