Trivia

Tentacruel appear strikingly similar to the Martians from War of The Worlds. Should this be reflected in the trivia section, or is it a coincidence?- unsigned comment from Zankou (talk • contribs)

- i would go for coincidence...

What do people think of tentacruel being one of only 3 pokemon in 1st generation to learn barrier? - perhaps squad-worthy material in this light methinks :)?- unsigned comment from Clay1st (talk • contribs)

Platinum

Tentacool is catchable in Platinum. I don't know how the tables on this wiki work, so I'm going to leave it, but Tentacruel is obtainable through evolution. King Neoterikos 05:56, 14 April 2009 (UTC)

Route 42 in HGSS

This article says that Tentacruel is catchable on Route 42 in HGSS but the Route 42 article makes no mention of either Tentacruel or Tentacool. So can they be caught there or not? --Kitsunegami 07:10, 22 August 2010 (UTC)

Pic

Why are we using this horrible blocky RG image as the main image, and not the crisp clear match-all-the-other-g1-pokemon Firered/Leafgreen pic that we have?Bug Catcher Wade 18:38, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Because it is Red and Blue's birthday. _Blake ^Talk·Edits 18:50, 1 September 2010 (UTC)

Gen V sprite

I just noticed this, Tentacruel's fifth gen sprite has tenacales that are of a purplish hue. Should this be in the trivia section? AshKetchumNo.1 13:26, 10 August 2011 (UTC)

yea, the Gen V sprites show it with blackish tenticles, unlike the gen III and IV sprites. Plokool 01:35, 28 November 2011 (UTC)
