This is where Sample Medarot's game-only features should be explained. Sample Medarot is a bipedal Medarot that focuses on gravity-based attacks. In [[Medapedia|a particular game]], it uses [[Break]] attacks, while in another it uses [[Press]]. Its stats give it certain features that make it better for certain purposes. | |||
In Medarot 1, 2, R, and 2 Core, Sample Medarot's parts have the Gravity attribute, which matches with the [[Bear Medal]]. | |||

== How to use the infobox == | |||
''The infobox is the colorful table in the top right corner of the page. All Medarot pages use the same template for their infobox, called [[Template:Infobox Medarot|Infobox Medarot]]. It lists important information about the Medarot and where it appears, and should be included first on every Medarot page. '' | |||
'' | ''To get the infobox to show up correctly, it needs to be placed at the very top the page when editing, before the text for the opening paragraph. (Doing this will make the first paragraph appear directly to the left of the infobox at the top of the page, like it does here.) There are instructions on how to use and fill in the template on its [[Template:Infobox Medarot|template page]], and you should try to copy/paste the template shell from there each time instead of trying to fill it in from memory. '' | ||
''Even if you can't fill in every detail in the infobox, it's important that you add it first thing when you create a page. It has the feature of automatically categorizing the page under [[:Category:Medarots]], and helps other users to find the page. Other users will always be able to edit it later and fill in the holes.

It includes the template [[Template:Navbox-Type|Navbox-Type]] which makes a small table for listing Medarots with the same motif, along with their model numbers (the models do not always need to match). Some large groups of Medarots, such as the [[Template:Navbox-KBT|KBT]]/[[Template:Navbox-KWG|KWG]] and [[Template:Navbox-Zodiac|zodiac]] Medarots, have pre-made navigation boxes that should be used instead of Navbox-Type.
