Trust framework

Editorial Policy

Every public claim should tell you what kind of information it is, where it came from, and when it was checked.

Four information labels

Official / Verified Fact

Objective information supported by official sources or direct, auditable evidence.

TokonGuide Editorial Opinion

Analysis, recommendations, rankings, or interpretation produced by the site with its method explained.

Community Observation

A specifically attributed observation with the source and sample boundary made clear.

Pending Verification

An internal status. It should not be presented publicly as an answer.

Publication standard

Official first-party sources are preferred. Time-sensitive claims keep their region, currency, platform, and check date. Beta or pre-release evidence is not silently generalized to the production game. Missing values are hidden rather than guessed.

What is currently withheld

The following research areas are not qualified for factual publication:

  • Complete move lists and inputs for every character
  • Frame data and damage values
  • Production-version combo routes
  • Character ease-of-use ratings for all 20 characters
  • Tier list and matchup data
  • Launch-day game version and patch history
  • Whether all captured Open Beta training and Room Match details not separately listed under production_match_and_controller_rules are unchanged in the production release
  • Keyboard and non-PlayStation controller mappings
  • Image reuse permissions and asset ledger
  • Official actor credits for Storm, Magik, Wolverine and Danger from a captured first-party source
  • Production-version confirmation of Automatic Team Name Generation

Corrections and updates

Version-sensitive pages show their applicable scope and last verification date. When sources conflict, TokonGuide keeps the conflict visible in research, lowers confidence, or withholds the claim. URLs remain stable while the underlying revision record changes.

Images and intellectual property

No image is considered reusable merely because it appears on an official or public page. Public assets require a rights record covering the source URL, owner, permission basis, retrieval date, allowed use, and attribution needs. Until that review is complete, the site uses original typography and geometric presentation.
