::The move was never named, but I find it highly unlikely that after the decision to make Rotom's thunderbolt orange in the first place, that it would then be yellow in BW130.

Revision as of 18:07, 2 August 2013

Shouldn't it be mentioned that he appears after almost every episode in Japan, talking about a pokemon or other things or making poetry?Raykyogrou0 (talk) 21:15, 7 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

This is an article about the topic, should it be included in here? Raykyogrou0 (talk) 21:26, 7 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
That only appears at the end of an episode, so it isn't part of the episode itself. It's also the reason why we don't say "(Pokémon) briefly appeared in (episode) during the Who's that Pokémon? segment", due to it not being in the actual episode itself.--ForceFire 02:17, 8 April 2013 (UTC)Reply
True, but it is part of the anime. It is quite significant that he appears practically every week in japan but in the localized version he only appears every once in a while. That's why I think it should be mentioned in like the trivia or something, linking to that article. Raykyogrou0 (talk) 18:44, 9 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Unova Pokémon

It was stated in the previous episode that Juniper will be sending Ash's reserves to Oak's lab. Should Ash's Unova Pokémon now be added to this article? Watchermark (talk) 01:19, 27 April 2013 (UTC)Reply

Spoilers

We have the Sammy article to prevent the 4th movie spoiler but the pics for celebi and charmaleon (as well as DaddyShipping) mention the word oak fix it please! Mariofan99 (talk) 00:24, 9 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

Yukinori/Yukinari

Unshou Ishizuka's (Professor Oak's seiyuu) first name (his real one) is Yukinori. Professor oak's Japanese first name is Yukinari. Don't their names look and sound similar? Doshigataina (talk) 07:20, 25 July 2013 (UTC)Reply

User:05308 added Discharge with the edit summary (→‎On hand: Thunderbolt was shown to be orange only 2 episodes ago). This doesn't sound reliable to me, but rather than changing it to Thundershock as you've done, I'd rather have a fluent Japanese speaker confirm what the move is before we list it.

The move was never named, but I find it highly unlikely that after the decision to make Rotom's thunderbolt orange in the first place, that it would then be yellow in BW130. It is incomprehensibly a different move. Diamond Lanturn CodeName: 05308 17:59, 2 August 2013 (UTC)Reply
It doesn't sound like it's Thunderbolt, but if it wasn't named, it is extremely assumptive to say which move it is. Note that it's against Project Anime guidelines to list Surf or Fly just for a Pokemon swimming or flying if the move isn't commanded; I don't see how this is any different from that.
