Kanoko Town (2)

Sorry about not replying earlier. I actually don't know which scan Serebii used, he just posted it on the main page of his site. --HoennMaster 01:33, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Well, according to Ume and Tina, the scan says Kanoko Town. Is Serebii referring to the starting town or the other city that starts with a K? --Psy_ライダー☮ 02:06, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

He said Starter Town, but now he removed that spelling and has Kanako Town....guess that puts that theory to rest. --HoennMaster 03:00, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Hmm, both he and Pokébeach had that spelling on it, but the scan had Kanoko Town on it. But oh well, we got the problem solved. 8D. --Psy_ライダー☮ 03:08, 12 August 2010 (UTC)

Block Discuss

I'M so sorry but may you please unblock me. I know how to categorize pictures, I just unploaded pictures in a hurry, i swear this thing will never happed again if you just unblock me! - unsigned comment from Milotic.ho (talk • contribs)

Alright, I've unblocked you, but please remember to categorize. Thank you. --Psy_ライダー☮ 22:16, 16 August 2010 (UTC)

Ash's Temporary Pokémon

I've uploaded a pic of Ash's Seaking to the archives. I'll work on getting some pics for the rest.--Pokélova! 05:29, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Jello uploaded Ash's Rapidash and his Hoothoot, so we're good. Thanks. 8D. --Psy_ライダー☮ 05:39, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

The Weezing? What about that?--Pokélova! 05:42, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

It's server issue. I uploaded it yesterday I believe. Archives has yet to sync with BP. Try hard refreshing, it should show. --Psy_ライダー☮ 05:44, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Okay. Anything else I might be able to help with?--Pokélova! 05:46, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

Uh, I don't think so. I can't think of anyone right now who might need a section like that...Maybe Dawn or Misty May or something...--Psy_ライダー☮ 05:51, 18 August 2010 (UTC)

YOU IDIOT

Just saying as a record. TTEchidna 07:41, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

Gee, because you're such an winner. --Psy_ライダー☮ 07:51, 19 August 2010 (UTC)

An easier way to rename ALL the images

Copy the article's source into notepad, go to Edit ----> Replace and replace all the old names with the new names. That way you can avoid doing a little image name scavenger hunt that you did earlier. Koolboyman 00:38, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, I'm aware. D: I was in a rush for class...D: --Psy_ライダー☮ 01:07, 25 August 2010 (UTC)

Image uploading issues

Why I can't overwrite images on the Bulbagarden Archives? I'd like to replace the move images with broken (black) transparencies and using JPEG compression. --Turtwig Lover 11:33, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

It's probably because you are a new user; they aren't able to upload newer versions of files for some time. Keep editing file summaries or help out in some other way, until you are able to upload over the files. —♥ Jello^talk 13:06, 28 August 2010 (UTC)

Help

Alright, but could you please tell me on where to go on descussing the information I had just descussed on Isshu, and if it's Bulbagarden, how could I sigh in, because it won't let me for some reason? --User:Cynthia149 17:36, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

It's because you haven't registered on the forums, I gave you some directions on how to register on your talk page. :D --Psy_ライダー☮ 16:35, 3 September 2010 (UTC)

Sorry

I was just trying to get my starter thing right.I'm done now. --Batking30 16:04, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

Go easy on the edits and use the preview button to eliminate multiple edits then please~ D: --Psy_ライダー☮ 16:05, 5 September 2010 (UTC)

My bad Psy

I am still sorta new to the Bulbapedia and editing wikis in general. The way I had my usertags before, I could only delete them one section at a time (or so I thought, before Phantomjunkie set me straight, see my talkpage). I am working on getting them all in one infobox, that way I can edit them all at once by just editing the infobox. BTW, I am planning on getting started on writing summaries for the episodes that need them soon, when I have time. My point is, it was a one time thing, and I promise it will not happen again. --JediKnightDTV 23:26, 8 September 2010 (UTC)

Unblock

Please You unblock me. I really wanna' to put some pictures of Cynthia's Garchomp and many more, cuz i have a lot of pictures, please unblock me and this thing will not happen again. (Milotic.ho)

Your two week block expires today automatically. However, you have shown us you don't know how to categorize or tag pictures properly. Because of this, you've been blocked multiple times. If you want to stay unblocked, I suggest you learn how to categorize and tag properly or you might face a four week block. And a side note, having your brother come to my talk page and call me a diva and a bitch and threatening me, really didn't intimidate me, and it didn't persuade me to consider unblocking you. Next time, come talk to me here since you're free here or email me via the "e-mail this user" on the side bar to discuss the block with me, and I can bring it up with the Editor in Chief. Thank you. --Psy_ライダー☮ 17:27, 9 September 2010 (UTC)

Huh?

Why did you revert me? --SnorlaxMonster 14:06, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

I guess I must have clicked rollback and not noticed it, cause when I went to change the T's back to t's, it said I was editing an out of date diff. If you had clicked to see the newer edits, you'd see that I did change it back, save for the trainer to Trainer bit. I'm not particularly favored toward that. It seems so out of place. --Psy_ライダー☮ 16:32, 25 September 2010 (UTC)

Yeah I had seen that you put the number fix back. Well, "Trainer" is meant to be spelled like that, as it is always spelled that way in the games (Generation I might not, but it also had "Clefairies"). In addition, there was another instance of capital Trainer on the page, and they should all be the same way, so I went with the offical way. However, the page is in your userspace, so these can stay the way that you want them, but will be fixed once it is moved to the mainspace so I don't see any point in leaving them as "trainer". --SnorlaxMonster 03:38, 26 September 2010 (UTC)

Thanks!

Thank you for doing my teensey edit on the Vaporeon page! ^^ Littlmiget123 19:33, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

No problem. Looking into the protection, it was protected around the time where Hydration was announced as its Dream World ability, so it was protected against speculation being added. --Psy_ライダー☮ 19:49, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Oh! Okay, I guess that makes sense, then! Thanks again. ^^ Littlmiget123 20:03, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

However, since it was revealed that it does get the ability and so do most other Pokémon, I'll ask if an admin can unprotect it. :D --Psy_ライダー☮ 20:12, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

That would explain why Hydration is locked itself. I wanted to edit the Hydration page, so that the little picture of Mamanbou reveal itself (as its national number is known now), but couldn't do it, because the is locked. Yohrd 10:57, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for telling me. :D. It's been changed~ --Psy_ライダー☮ 11:39, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

No problem, meanwhile, I made a list of Gen V Pokemon who have the ability :
- Pokémon | Second Ability
- #535 Otamaru | Swift Swim
- #536 Gamageru | Swift Swim
- #537 Gamageroge | Swift Swim
- #616 Chobomaki | Shell Armor
- #617 Arigudaa | Sticky Hold

adeku. old-fashioned Japanese is spoken in a Japanese version.

Why did you erase it? Adeku speaks old-fashioned Japanese in a Japanese version. Sawamular101 23:36, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Because it wasn't even a proper sentence. You can re add it if you make it into one. If I couldn't understand what you were trying to say there, I doubt anyone else could either. No offense. --Psy_ライダー☮ 23:38, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

"Adeku speaks old-fashioned Japanese in a Japanese version."

I'm sorry by poor English. May I add this sentence again? Sawamular101 23:52, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Perhaps, "In the Japanese version of Pokémon Black and White, Adeku speaks formal Japanese." (or you can replace formal with old-fashioned) Not sure. —♥ Jello^talk 23:58, 29 September 2010 (UTC)

Thank you for making appropriate sentences. Sawamular101 00:31, 30 September 2010 (UTC)

Still not right.

It's still not confirmed in any way to be "based" off the New York area. Try "It has been confirmed by Junichi Masuda that the Isshu region draws inspiration from Manhattan, New York but is not explicitly based off of New York."

And then I'll shut up. ^^

Also, remove all traces of the word "base". We don't have the "base" of Isshu. We have it's "motif".

--Mackinz of SoulSilver 05:47, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Alrighty, thanks, I'll do it now. :P. I got tired of seeing the Isshu talk page being edited so I flipped out. Sorry >_>;;. --Psy_ライダー☮ 05:53, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

No, thank you, Psy! ^^ --Mackinz of SoulSilver 06:05, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Considering the overwhelming evidence that points to it having inspiration from New York City and surrounding, and not directly based off of it, it was due for a change. D: --Psy_ライダー☮ 06:08, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

It's funny cause this would not have been done without my pushing for it! xD

Well, until Junichi releases an official statement anyway~

But yeah, thanks again! :3

--Mackinz of SoulSilver 06:10, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

No problem~ Happy to help. If anyone has a problem with it being changed for some neutrality, they can come talk to me. 8D --Psy_ライダー☮ 06:12, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

I'm just glad that the misconception since PokePia has been cleared up! (At least on Bulbapedia, anyway :3)

Do you think I did a good job or bad job? Honestly.

--Mackinz of SoulSilver 06:14, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Well it would have been nice if you could have done it without getting on everyone's case and spamming talk pages excessively... —darklordtrom 06:29, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

It would have also been nice if more people had actually read the facts that both Game Freak and Nintendo posted instead of believing some non-official source.--Mackinz of SoulSilver 06:33, 3 October 2010 (UTC)

Images in templates

I am not able to upload any of the images so that's why most of the templates are missing the images. Pattyman 23:16, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Ok? I've been around long enough to know that they don't show up. I reverted you because the image was an ugly jpg and I was going to get png images of them anyways, which I did. Thanks. --Psy_ライダー☮ 23:20, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Some Pokémon are based on Mother/EarthBound characters!

Hi,

I just wanted to tell you that I discovered something...quite odd. It appears that two Pokémon, Mewtwo and Deoxys, are actually based from characters of the EarthBound series!

Mewtwo may be based on Giegue (Giygas), the main anatagonist of the Japan-only Mother (video game) , before his body and soul were destroyed by its own PSI powers in EarthBound (series). Since many people working for APE.inc, including Benimaru Itoh, went on to Game Freak to create the Pokémon Series, it is possible that Mewtwo may be based on Giegue. Also, EVE(not the female droid from WALL-E!), a space alien virus, share this cliché with Deoxys The reason fans think Deoxys may be based on EVE from Mother (video game), is because both are alien space viruses who went under mutation when they were struck by a laser beam, and with the fact that most people who produced the EarthBound (series) went to create the Pokémon series, it is very likely that EVE was Deoxys' origin.

Not only that, but Giegue/Mewtwo are extremely similar, only Giegue is blue, has a sereine face, has a warm heart and has longer and bigger 'ears' than Mewtwo's. EVE's sprite is almost identical to Deoxys' Normal Forme, so I don't think there's a coincidence between these two Pokémon and EarthBound aliens. What do you think? TokoyamiTheDark 23:18, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Personally, I don't see the similarities in any of them, especially since I have never played Mother/Earthbound, but if you think that it's notable, you should talk to one of the higher-ups. --Psy_ライダー☮ 23:25, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Ok. I think I should talk to Jello about the EarthBound coincidences, since she's the leader of the CharacterDex. I've seen websites showing these Pokémon/EarthBound clichés too, with comparaison images, but I can't seem to find them back... TokoyamiTheDark 23:32, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Uh actually, Psy is the leader of CharacterDex. You might want to bring this up with either Sol or Tina since they've played Earthbound, and are more likely more knowledgeable in this area. —♥ Jello^talk 23:34, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Honestly I don't see what "being knowledgeable with EarthBound" has to do with this. :V It's just taking a look at the similarities and see if it's notable to mention. I would say that they're just coincidences, especially with Mewtwo and Deoxys being released eons apart, meaning it's not very likely for Deoxys to be based off of EVE anyway. ~ solaris 23:38, 4 October 2010 (UTC)

Listen Psychic

I'm not trying to make you mad. Believe me, that is the last thing I would want to do.

However, please remember I'm trying to maintain what we know for sure. I'll show you exactly what I put on Umeko's talk page:

The wording I revised, and there wasn't much if anything, was the things that, if you notice, give the reader the feeling that Isshu is New York. This, however, is not confirmed by anyone that actually have the authority to confirm it. The interview on Nintendo.co.jp and blog 177 on Game Freak's blog directly say : "New York is Isshu's motif". If you'll notice how many times I've pointed out that Motif does not mean Basis/Model/Stage, you would also notice how neutral I made the text while maintaining the statement "Isshu uses New York as it's motif". Please understand that I'm not saying it is not possible for Game Freak to come out later and outright say "New York is Isshu". I'm just saying it hasn't been said yet. And frankly, I want Bulbapedia to be as accurate as possible. --Mackinz of SoulSilver 02:40, 5 October 2010 (UTC)

N's Castle

You can say the article sucks, but I put effort into that thing. - unsigned comment from Cool469 (talk • contribs)

For one, you didn't even use correct link templates. It should not be [[Zoroark]], it should be {{p|Zoroark}}. You might want to check out the list of link templates. It'll help. Second, you should have categorized it better and since there was not a lot of stuff on the page, placed an {{incomplete}} tag at the top and a {{Stub|Location}} tag at the bottom because it is both a stub and a location. Third, after you comment, please type ~~~~ for a signature, thanks. --Psy_ライダー☮ 05:45, 6 October 2010 (UTC)

Quick question

What's the limit on how long your signature can be? And can we use pages like [User:The Exterminator/Sig] for substituting signatures? (And yes I know that's not a full link right there.) The Exterminator 18:18, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

I'm pretty sure that there is no length limit, but I know that signature templates are not allowed. The signature policy has all the details on signatures. --Psy_ライダー☮ 18:44, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Well, it's not exactly a template, so I wasn't sure if it's allowed or not. When I sign, it would do this:

 ~~~~ → {{subst:User:The Exterminator/Sig}} → [[User:The Exterminator|blah blah blah]]

It works fine and hasn't glitched with the text alignment and stuff yet, but the policy about no templates had me questioning. The Exterminator 18:58, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

It does the same thing as using the signature box in the preferences, since it just puts in the coding that's on the page. The Exterminator 19:07, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Using curly brackets to include it on another page is pretty much the definition of a template, making it a sig template, which is not allowed. Also, there is a limit of 80 rendered characters, but I believe that the preferences box will also only accept about 130 odd characters. Werdnae (talk) 19:13, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Okay, thanks. The Exterminator^{Talk/Contribs.} 19:25, 11 October 2010 (UTC)

Permission

Hey Psy, would you mind if I use a coding similar to your's (Contact ME section only) of your userpage? I really want to get rid of the ugly contact section from my userspace and I tried replacing it with your's (but slight color change) and it looked perfect. But I need your permission, if it's not ok then no problemo. So, can I use it or not? ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 12:33, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah sure, i don't mind. --Psy_ライダー☮ 15:43, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks :) ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 16:52, 15 October 2010 (UTC)

Requests?

Is it possible to make requests for you? Because I've made these following requests for another user quite a while ago, but nothing has happened. I'm really impressed of your pictures' quality and amount, so I decided to ask from you next.

• Images of Ash's Pikachu using Tackle (yes, it has used the move, for example in EP118, EP143 and EP183) and Agility.
• Image of Ash's Gliscor using Sandstorm (used at the beginning of DP100).
• Image of Sabrina's Kadabra using Teleport (besides as an Abra, it also used the move after the evolution during the rematch) and a better picture of it using Confusion (I mean that part where it uses the move to redirect Pikachu's attack back at it, not that current one where its eyes just faintly glow before that (there was that kind of a image, but it was deleted)).
• Image of Cerulean Gym's Dewgong using some move as a Dewgong.
• Images for the Pichu Brothers', Team Go-Getters' and Team Meanies' Gengar's move templates.
• Better pictures for Gary Oak's Dodrio, Magmar, Golem, Scizor and unseen Pokémon.
• A better pic of Brandon's Regirock using Lock-On (I'm trying to get at least two pics for everyone of Brandon's golems' move templates, but I'm short with Regirock and Registeel).
• A better pic for Misty's Horsea's move template.
• Better pictures of Agatha's Gengar and Golbat.
  

Hope that wasn't too much. Hope you can handle the job. :) --FinnishPokéFan92 16:24, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Uh, yeah, I can do it or at least get some of them that I can done. :D --Psy_ライダー☮ 17:06, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Not with anything bad, but that Dodrio is very small in its pic... --FinnishPokéFan92 18:39, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

I used the Chronicles episode cause the image was more pleasant to look at and the only other images of it using Drill Peck and it has like 5 heads in it from the animation. D;. If I can find a better one I'll change it. Also, Ash's Gliscor used Sand Attack and Staravia used Gust/Whirlwind along with it to create a sandstorm, are you using it for like a moves improvised, cause otherwise, it's not an actual move it used. Uh, I don't know if I'll be able to get the later Johto ones or the MD ones without them having logos, and uh Regirock either is in it's pose to do Lock On, or the effect is on Sceptile, so lemme know what you want~. Thank you. --Psy_ライダー☮ 18:43, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

I understand your problems, so let me answer:

• Okay, I just thought you could have uploaded a better version of the Dodrio pic that there was earlier. Also, you can find more closer pics from it than that one which you uploaded from the same episode. But if you cannot do anything, this is fine.
• I saw that talk about Sandstorm at that talk page. I guess it is Sandstorm, since it looks similiar to the one used by Paul's Gliscor during its debut episode.
• I understand about that logo thing. If you cannot get your hands on Japanese versions of the episodes or something like that, those current pics are OK.
• The Regirock pic could be something like this one, but with better quality.
  

Hope this answered all necessary questions. Ask more if something was left unclear to you.--FinnishPokéFan92 09:03, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

I'll try to get them as close as possible. :D --Psy_ライダー☮ 11:13, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

I've got this one; Gliscor using Sand Attack (used at the beginning of DP100). Check it out, I think you can discard it from your list now. ♫♪AdyNiz♪♫ 12:57, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Thanks for your help, but it wasn't really needed for that one. D: They thought it was Sandstorm that he was using, but it wasn't. There really wasn't anything important about the Sand-Attack in DP100. D8, sorry you wasted your time. --Psy_ライダー☮ 14:30, 27 October 2010 (UTC)

Re: Breeding in Gen V

I can find nothing on Eggs, Pokemon Breeding or even the location of the daycare in Gen V on their respective pages. I know eggs weren't removed (and the lack of information about them is probably due to everyone doing other, more important things) but could you tell me two things?

1. Do Eggs have a type as of now with the removal of the ???-type?

2. Where is the Daycare Center in Isshu?

--Mackinz of SoulSilver 18:45, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

I haven't bred anything yet so I don't know the first answer, and the Daycare is on Isshu Route 3, north of Sanyou City. --Psy_ライダー☮ 22:08, 19 October 2010 (UTC)

Ah, thanks. The egg problem needs to be figured out though. Got any ideas who could answer? --Mackinz of SoulSilver 01:16, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Oh! I have the Meraruba egg~ I can check it real fast. It doesn't have anything. It just has the memo at the top. --Psy_ライダー☮ 01:30, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Oh, okay, thanks Psyche ^^ --Mackinz of SoulSilver 02:02, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

No problem. --Psy_ライダー☮ 02:06, 20 October 2010 (UTC)

Pokabu's gender

Pokabu's gender is confirmed in the preview of episode 7. The female Tsutaja uses attract on Pokabu, and he's faling in love with her. - unsigned comment from Coldplaylover (talk • contribs)

That doesn't change the fact that the episode confirming it to be male hasn't aired yet. It will not be added until it airs. --HoennMaster 15:07, 21 October 2010 (UTC)

Misunderstanding

When I mentioned, "This image from serebii did not show Tracey's head completely.", I was only referring to the first upload of Tracey's Dodrio. Sorry for not wording it correctly. The second upload was not from Serebii, it was from another source instead. PattyMan 22:46, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Alright, I will unblock you. However, the next time, don't mention Serebii. The reason I blocked you was because of that comment and the fact you had been uploading images from Serebii. I assumed, justifiably, that you had taken the image from Serebii, and possibly edited it. Sorry for the misunderstanding. --Psy_ライダー☮ 22:58, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Probably a simple error...

but I can't get Fire_Oath.png on the archives to appear as an image on Fire Oath. And I don't know how to link to the archives either... The other attacks I linked worked fine. --+ Joeshie + (is Mæ!) 22:49, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

The servers for the Archives and the Pedia don't always sync right away, so sometimes the image doesn't show right away, even if the image has been uploaded. Usually a good hard refresh, a couple of purges or a dry edit to the page will get it to update, however it doesn't always occur right away. Hope this clears your problem, cheers --Psy_ライダー☮ 22:58, 24 October 2010 (UTC)

Oh okay. xD --+ Joeshie + (is Mæ!) 02:22, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Yeah, it's been like this for a while. I tried dry editing it and it showed up. :D --Psy_ライダー☮ 02:30, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Hmmm... Still not showing up for me xD. Oh well, if it works for other people, I'm good. --+ Joeshie + (is Mæ!) 05:21, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

I tried dry editing it and it showed up for me, so the servers might be syncing now 8D;;. --Psy_ライダー☮ 05:25, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

• randomly pops in* I don't see it either. Are you sure its working, Psyc? --Mackinz of SoulSilver 06:09, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Yes I am. --Psy_ライダー☮ 06:11, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

Sorry to post here again XD, but I'm looking at the Fire Oath page at school, and still, no image is appearing. Strangely, I did an edit-preview and saw it before, but now even when I preview, I still see nothing. Very strange in my opinion. --+ Joeshie + (is Mæ!) 16:59, 25 October 2010 (UTC)

It can take several days, or even a couple weeks for images to properly sync sometimes. Yes it's a pain, but that's just how it is unless the techs can do something to fix this persistent bug. Be patient and don't worry about it. 梅子^❀_✿ 17:05, 25 October 2010 (UTC)
