In other words, there's nothing on Sentret that couldn't have come from a Meercat. Even the stripes and markings are similar to a meercat's. It could be just that people associate it with racoons more readily because racoons are more familar. | In other words, there's nothing on Sentret that couldn't have come from a Meercat.

Looking at the trivia, there's one that notes that Sentret's sprite is lighter-colored in the Hoenn, Kanto, and Sinnoh-based games than it is in either Generation II or HG/SS. Is it possible that this decision could be a deliberate one on the part of the creators to indicate that Sentret is non-native to those areas? Since it's caught in the Sevii Islands in FR/LG and traded to R/S/E, or caught with Poké Radar in D/P/Pt, it would make a lot of sense. The anime has already set the precedent for Pokémon having color variations when they are seen in different areas. It's just something I noticed, but I didn't want to add it to the trivia without discussing it first.

Raccoon

HGSS
Should we start adding HGSS spaces on the Pokédex descriptions?--I'm Pokelova(Talk) 01:28, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
- And why would we do that? So we could have blank spaces all over our pages for the next six months?--RexRacer 01:33, 10 May 2009 (UTC)
Sprite
On my computer it doesnt show Sentret's hgss sprites.Is it just my computer or others as well?--Riolufan 10:07, 18 July 2009 (UTC)
- It showed up, then the sprite was deleated. Idk y ŚĥîΠŶPî₭₳ĉĥŭ 03:00, 22 July 2009 (UTC)
Sprite Colors
Looking at the trivia, there's one that notes that Sentret's sprite is lighter-colored in the Hoenn, Kanto, and Sinnoh-based games than it is in either Generation II or HG/SS. Is it possible that this decision could be a deliberate one on the part of the creators to indicate that Sentret is non-native to those areas? Since it's caught in the Sevii Islands in FR/LG and traded to R/S/E, or caught with Poké Radar in D/P/Pt, it would make a lot of sense. The anime has already set the precedent for Pokémon having color variations when they are seen in different areas. It's just something I noticed, but I didn't want to add it to the trivia without discussing it first. Phantom♫Junkie 16:46, 15 August 2010 (UTC)
- Well, i found this site and yes, the Gen iv sprites are different, but the unova(isshu) sprites are of the same color that the johto sprites --EzekielMaple 17:47, 24 November 2010 (UTC)
Flying squirrel? Emolga?
Is Sentret also shares the traits with Emolga? I noticed the article "It also shares traits with flying squirrels, sugar gliders, and raccoons", and Emolga is also based on a flying squirrel. Even Sentret also can breed with Emolga because of Field egg group. Does this mean Sentret and Emolga are flying squirrels? Special Stage Route (pit stop) 08:26, 19 June 2012 (UTC)
