+## Data Sources
+
+For original / canon information, the following sources are used:
+
+* Files ``pokedex_pokemon.${lang}.dic`` are fed from Bulbapedia's page of "List of Pokémon in other languages" and from a veekun schema-compatible database listing.
+* Files ``moves.${lang}.dic`` are fed from Bulbapedia's page of "List of moves in other languages" and from a veekun schema-compatible database listing.
+* Other files are fed from Bulbapedia's tabular data pages on internationalization, such as ["List of locations in other languages"](https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/List_of_locations_in_other_languages)
+
+The following SQL query, applied to a Veekun "pokedex" schema, extracts in its second column the names for Pokémon in a given ISO language code ("``{lang}``"):
+
+```
+select P.id, PN.name
+FROM
+pokemon P 
+left join pokemon_species_names PN 
+on PN.pokemon_species_id = P.id  
+join languages L on PN.local_language_id=L.id
+and L.identifier={lang}
+where P.id is not null 
+order by P.id, L.id
