Takoto: Bad cropping. I've asked someone who's been uploading Crystal sprites to see if we can get a better version of this. —darklordtrom 07:09, 30 August 2009 (UTC)

The Platinum sprite is incorrect

On the page for Natu and Xatu, you guys show that their sprites for Platinum are exactly the same as Diamond/Pearl. That's false, because in Platinum Natu and Xatu received new colors. How come it hasn't been fixed yet? --Chaos Rush 00:53:25 (UTC)

I think that shouldn't be displayed any when isn't a correct version of it. It confuses who did not saw Natu in-game, making him/her think that it is the actual Platinum sprite. -- RikkiKitsune 07:18, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
It defaults to that because so many sprites are the same. I haven't got past Oreburgh Gym yet, so I can't make a list of what sprites are different. If you'd like to give a hand that'd be fantastic. —darklordtrom 07:30, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
Oh, understood. I'm not so advanced in my game also, but I'll try to help as I can. ^^ -- RikkiKitsune 07:40, 30 August 2009 (UTC)
The Pokemon that changed colors in Platinum (but still have the same pose) are: Natu, Xatu, Mareep, Forretress, and Ursaring.

More likely the latter. I've removed it. It can be added back if someone can provide evidence that there actually is an Aztec god called Atu.
