Since I'm doing my own Sinnoh-type walkthrough on my website, I've decided to help Bulbapedia where it's lacking (Particularly the early routes).

== "Deoxys's four forms retconned" ==
When you say they were retconned, do you mean an "e" was added to "form"? [[User:Deoxys911|Deoxys911]] 21:03, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
:He didn't say that, I did. And yes. I said as much in that paragraph. I recentl found out that "retcon" means "retroactive continuity," so it may not be the most appropriate term, but I still think it fits. --[[User:Martonimos|<font color="#008000">Martonimos</font>]]<sub>[[User talk:Martonimos|((<font color="#00FF00">Talk</font>))]]</sub> 22:01, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

User:TTEchidna/Trades Okay, well, that discussion's over with, clean slate time!

As always, contact me or any other administrators over AIM or something if there's a problem. Talk page notes don't appear to me until I log on here, which is about ten seconds before I hop on RC myself.

And don't forget, I'm still looking for an Ash, Dawn, and Brock voice for those YouTube English previews. TTEchidna

User:Livinlarge18

I'll be blunt and to the point. I'm sick of his crap. Every freaking time he makes an edit, he doesn't use link templates. Never. He has been warned exactly six times to do so. He doesn't categorize articles he creates. Never. He has been warned exactly thirteen times to do so. His information is more than occasionally inaccurate, and he seems to enjoy editing things just for the sake of editing them. Oh, and he has responded exactly zero times to requests that he adhere to the Manual of Style. Something needs done. --ニョロトノ666 01:50, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

If he does it again, I'll give him a month and a half off. TTEchidna 01:55, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
You are the all-purpose admin of pure awesomeness. --ニョロトノ666 02:05, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
Yeah I know. TTEchidna 02:05, 2 May 2008 (UTC)


Sproies?

Hey:P You left a comment about my Grammar and I have tried to improve it. But what is Sproies? You said Sproies and i dont know what it means.

That's how you spelled something. Pay more attention to the keys you hit before you save the page. TTEchidna 03:09, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

Oh sorry. My Keyboard broke and its been typing random things. I dropped a heavy book on it :p User:David aipom

Thanks...

I guess I could use those... But I have NO IDEA what moves Silver's Pokémon know. So that would be kinda useless there... Since all I could use is this "--" for the movespace. Template:Team Though in actuality I could predict what moves the first battle's moves are since Cyndaquil only knows Tackle and Leer at Level 5. Though this would only be for the first battle and none else. (Though if I traded a Ditto I could tell all the moves.) Anyway, it'd look like this:

Template:Team I need to get a life...

Yes. That works there, so put that listing. TTEchidna 04:23, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Usertag

I'm nice to people (not like you aren't either but...) so I try to do stuff for people. I'm not sure why but I chose you to give this to, if you don't want it then nevermind. I know that you have the Teddiursa version but if you also want this one... The reason I made this one is the caption (in my opinion is hilarious) matches the picture very well. I find it funny especially when you look at the expanded image.

Pikachu and Pichu in Super Smash Brothers Melee.jpg I swear I didn't know she was level 2.

Anyway this is what it looks like enlarged.

Pikachu and Pichu in Super Smash Brothers Melee.jpg I swear I didn't know she was level 2.

I don't think it could be but if the Teddiursa Usertag is copyrighted please tell me. Rpp 02:45, 2 May 2008 (UTC)Rpp

Just to spread a little humor... Rpp 02:45, 2 May 2008 (UTC)Rpp
I dunno. The Teddiursa one is based on Pedobear. TTEchidna 04:22, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

User:Rpp

Please tell this person that you can't predict levels in the anime. He or she keeps bugging me saying that Dai's Empoleon is level 41 or something because it learned Drill Peck. As most of us know, game mechanics are not the same as what happens in the anime. They're not listening to me so I thought they would listen to someone higher in power.

Also, he or she was implying I was a bitch. --ケンジガール 07:10, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

That guy's a straight up suneva bith...From the gyms you can tell that levels don't exist in the anime. OptimatumTalk|Links2 May 2008
Roll my eyes. Why the hell do these kids think that "lol what gamefaqs sez goes". That's where this stupidity "PIKACHYU IZ LEVEL 198349084 AND LOST TO ROARK ANIME IS DUMM" comes from. HERE'S how the anime works. EVERYTHING is level 100. It's just trained differently. Shō's Raichu had high offensive abilities, so Shō used them accordingly. Ash wasn't ready for it which is why he and Pikachu lost. TTEchidna 17:17, 2 May 2008 (UTC)
2 Things: 1, I was basing that anime DOES, (might have been a dub error or something but who cares?!) because in ep. 009 (the School of Hard Knocks) some boy says that Pidgey evolves at level 18 into Pidgeotto. (and) 2, NOBODY can take a joke. I don't have true intent to call anyone a bitch. Unless it's used for humor or puns, etc. Well... Actually 3 things: I hate gamefaqs. (So why would I listen to them? Though previously you didn't know that I hated it so nevermind.) Also, I'm a guy (Kenji-Girl said He or She). Rpp 02:34, 3 May 2008 (UTC)Rpp
TTE, your 'Everything is 100' way of explaining is wrong. Why do Pokémon evolve, then? OptimatumTalk|Links02:42 3 May 2008
bulbapedia is to wikipedia, what the games are to the anime. = they have pokemon, and thats where the similarities end. (loose explanation) ie: the anime can do anything it wants. -- MAGNEDETH 02:48, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
Look, I only called you "he or she" because I didn't know what your gender was okay. I was being ambiguous, I wasn't trying to insult you. --ケンジガール 03:55, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
Kenji-Girl, you didn't insult me. I was just telling you that I was male.
So is my involvement over here? TTEchidna 20:17, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
Well, I'm trying to "make-up" with Kenji-Girl so... Probably. (Even though I'm the one at issue...) Rpp 01:05, 4 May 2008 (UTC)Rpp

Vandal

Please see this if you haven't noticed already. Porygon-Z 17:30, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

And oh yeah...(I think) you forgot to change my name to Zhen's on Template:Ut. Porygon-Z 17:35, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

Signature policy page

So, is the signature policy completely official as of now? I assume yes, but I'm double checking to be sure. I'd like to write up an official policy page for it, and I just want to make sure I've got permission/authority to do so. (aiming for a simple list of the policy's rules, and some explanation/tips for newer, less savvy users.) -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 20:13, 2 May 2008 (UTC)

It's official, and has been since you started the job. If you wanna write the page, go for it. TTEchidna 01:15, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
I'll get to work on it later. I figure a few tips on making a nice signature that doesn't break the policies might be nice, as well as a plain and simple explanation on how to actually sign your comments (and why you should). I'll try not to go overboard, too. =P -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 03:34, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

SPeaking of signatures, I managed to get your old sig back:TTEchidna

'''[[User:TTEchidna|<font color=red>T</font>]][[User talk:TTEchidna|<font color=red>T</font>]][[wp:Echidna|<font color=red>E</font><font color=blue>chidna</font>]]'''

OptimatumTalk|Links10:27 3 May 2008

But I like mine now... TTEchidna 20:16, 3 May 2008 (UTC)
Aw, shoot ma boot...well you dirty vermin -is shot- OptimatumTalk|Links01:04 4 May 2008

Bulbapedia:Signature policy is finished. It's not added to the policy page yet, as I'm not sure where or if it should be added in there... I'll leave that to you. Oh, and of course, you might want to look over the policy page to make sure it's all good. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 18:00, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

UT Template

I think I did wrong with it. It puts Category:Link templates on the page it gets put on. It did on my talk page, at least. Porygon-Z 03:45, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Fixed it. The category tag was outside the noinclude tags in the template, so it was being added to pages along with the rest of the template. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 04:02, 3 May 2008 (UTC)

Mazel Tov dude

Congrats on being the number one top contributor since October. You are one dedicated Bulbapedian. Boywonder01 08:04, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I suppose. TTEchidna 16:24, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Man I wish my father could trust me with Internet access, this way I could be just like Time Travelling Echidna!--KukiTalk 16:28, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Believe me... I didn't trust myself with the internet when I was your age. TTEchidna 16:31, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Well done.

You've over-taken BulbaBot. Again. Glinn Mgraw 11:43, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

So I have. TTEchidna 16:20, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Voices

Yo. Talk to me on AIM ASAP. Porygon-Z 19:00, 4 May 2008 (UTC)

Can't. Busy working on an animation project in the Loop. Scanning takes a half hour so I'm goofing off on Bulba temporarily. TTEchidna 19:48, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
Ok well, either way we have a video response. It's not from the one who commented yesterday though, theirs is coming in a few days. Porygon-Z 19:49, 4 May 2008 (UTC)
I see. TTEchidna 00:08, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Hi! I didn't know where else to put this. But anyway, I'm interested in lending my voice for the project you guys are working on (episode previews for D/P: Battle Dimension). I can't do an impression of Dawn or anything, however. So I was thinking, a female-announcer type voice, perhaps? Also, the good news is that I have experience with my voice being recorded, since I've been on the Bulbacast a lot. I was a frequent call-in guest in the regular Bulbacast, and I was also a main speaker for the Bulbacast: English Edition. If you're interested in having me audition for this part, just let me know. ^_^ --PokemonTrainerLisa 09:01, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Put it on the tubes, send it over. Z and I shall see. TTEchidna 09:07, 8 May 2008 (UTC)

Ah, okay. Thanks! I'll try to record an audition soon for you guys! ^^ --PokemonTrainerLisa 12:54, 10 May 2008 (UTC)

What's Libarian Spanish? CoolPikachu!

Iberian. As in, Spain's Spanish. The Iberian Peninsula. As opposed to Latin America, where they use Latin American Spanish. TTEchidna 00:17, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
ohh sorry since I speak spanish from Latin America so.. CoolPikachu!
It's like British English vs American English. The countries, of course, are the United Kingdom vs Canada/United States. It's not United Kingdomian English. It's British.
And it could be called Castillian Spanish, but there's a sub-language called Castillian, which is... kinda like an in between for Spanish and Latin. TTEchidna 00:23, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
I knew that part since I studied Spain last year CoolPikachu!
Wikipedia. TTEchidna 00:32, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
What about Wikipedia? CoolPikachu!
It's everything. TTEchidna 00:35, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
ok? CoolPikachu!

So, why did I protect User:TTechidna until 2015?

Anyone have any ideas?

Anyone?

Will Bulbapedia still be around in 2015? Will Pokémon still exist? Heck, where will I be? Will I have kids? Will I be anywhere meaningful?

...will I still be playing Pokémon?

And if so...

...how many will there BE?! TTEchidna 09:12, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

They'll probably try to hit 1000.
As for you protecting Ttechidna until 2015...I have no idea. Glinn Mgraw 09:26, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
your stopping people from pretending to be you, and 2015 is when your going to leave bulbapedia 折り紙ガイ - 離す貢献 11:12, 5 May 2008
Err...Only thing i can think of is your leaving and coming back in 2015? I hope thats not the case though. Takoto! 11:49, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

all i can decipher is that it may have somthing to do with Back to the Future 2. if im not mistaken, its the day that Doc takes Marty to the future. -- MAGNEDETH 23:48, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

Pretty sure that he goes to 2000, but Maybe because 20+5+1= 26= Z, your favorite letter of the alphabet, or 2+5+1= 8 = H for Helium, which Drifloon appears to be made of.... jkC is for Cookie 23:53, 5 May 2008 (UTC)
Maybe that will be the year that the Admins will be done testing and we get to edit the Userspace again!! MoldyOrange 00:55, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
Mags is right. TTEchidna 03:08, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
i dont care what people say, just because it was way off target, BTTF2 was still good. i saw the date, and i had a hunch, so i googled it to confirm it. do i get a prize?!? -- MAGNEDETH 03:26, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
I dunno. Magneton named Flux? TTEchidna 03:35, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
no, im good....but thats a really good nickname for a Magneton.... -- MAGNEDETH 03:42, 6 May 2008
Yep. Or a Porygon-Z... it's Y-shaped. TTEchidna 03:43, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
yes indeed. if only i didnt already have nicknames for both of those two... -- MAGNEDETH 04:15, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
Yeah me too. Fielder and V/R Psycho. TTEchidna 04:19, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
a Magneton named Fielder? you probably dont even use it. and is there any REAL particular reason for blocking untill that date? or, just for fun? -- MAGNEDETH 04:22, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
Magnezone. I use it when I do my level 100 battles. And the reason? Because I linked to it and don't want some jackass making it saying "LOL HAY I'M TTE". TTEchidna 04:28, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
Actually, protecting it means you'll have a jackass saying "LOL HAY I'M TTE AND HAY Y CANT I EDIT MY USERPAGE??!!!!!11"
...But if anyone does take the account, you can instantly ban them and just say "the name's taken, try again". -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 04:45, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
Well since the ban's in place anyway there's no reason. I was just protecting it for the sake of protection from someone who isn't the user making the page. TTEchidna 06:10, 6 May 2008 (UTC)

ATTENTION: ALL GOOD BATTLERS

  • For all good battlers, i have an announcement:
  • i have been chosen for recruiting for a new "secret site"
  • if you are interested, post on my talk page, or post after this, and i will get to you
  • you will be selected after you are tested. You will be assigned a tester when i get to you
  • thanks Patriotfan09 21:17, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
A tester? Is it to be type-specific? TTEchidna 23:49, 6 May 2008 (UTC)
New Announcement:
Um. Okay. Too bad, I was looking to test myself. TTEchidna 18:43, 7 May 2008 (UTC)
wwell, i might be able to find you one, if you join the site ahead of time..? Cus the site is for battling, and i could find you a tester, ok? Patriotfan09 21:02, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

To do list:

  • Articles for the Water 1, Fairy, Indeterminate, and Humanshape egg groups so I can edit the {{egg}}, {{egg2}}, and {{egg3}} templates to link to the articles instead of the categories.
  • Make sure all card articles use the {{ct}} template instead of the {{TCG}} template when linking to Energy types.
  • Make all TCG set articles adhere to the standard.
  • Make all Pokémon articles adhere to the standard (hoo boy, 493 of 'em?)...
  • And more. Later. TTEchidna

HELP

Can you delete the story on the user page only. If I cant touch it, it is useless thereC is for Cookie 01:08, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Got it. Full deletion is what you meant, DCM? Or did you just need the page blanked? (it can be restored again if you really need it.) -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 04:41, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

Because you finally beat Bulbabot. (MathijsP 06:43, 11 May 2008 (UTC))

Permanently, too. TTEchidna 06:47, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
What do you mean by 'permanently'? Posted by the Θρtιmαtum♏Talk|Links06:52 11 May 2008
Because this time it got recorded in the monthly edit list. TTEchidna 06:53, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
Then you should have said that it was permanently recorded. Because, if you beat Bulbabot PERMANENTLY, it's either:
  1. Bulbabot is non-functioning.
  2. You're gonna keep editing more than BB
  3. You're just exaggerating. Posted by the Θρtιmαtum♏Talk|Links06:57 11 May 2008
  1. Well it is still functioning but...
  2. That one's true.
  3. And maybe this too. TTEchidna 06:59, 11 May 2008 (UTC)
  1. I thought so.
  2. Are you sure?

Trade (Copied)

(Copied from Sandbox Page talk)

Hi, I had hoped that you saw the comment I posted on the main talk... Anyway, I can't reach your normal talk because of that vandal talk (dumb blocker...don't ask), and I was wondering if you would consider cloning your shinies? -Theininen 18:44, 30 March 2008 (UTC)

Can't clone 'em, I'm afraid... They're all in Gen IV. TTEchidna 20:07, 30 March 2008 (UTC)
See the article, there's a way to clone Gen IV. -Theininen 03:24, 31 March 2008 (UTC)

Wasn't sure if you had seen this recently, and am still wondering if you want to, I have a shiny Deoxys and Carvanha to offer. Theininen 15:29, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Eh, well, I don't wanna risk things with the GTS. TTEchidna 01:54, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Understand the feeling, but I use it often myself. Oh well, I'll just keep surfing the GTS, I should find others soon. Theininen 20:16, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Question

Hey I have a question, obviously. How do you insert pictures into articles? Thanks ahead of time,--Arceusguy 16:46, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

Well first the image has to be on Bulbagarden Archives, because hotlinked images are bad. Then it's just like other articles. Look at their coding. TTEchidna 01:52, 12 May 2008 (UTC)
Basically, [[Image:imagename.jpg]] is the coding for a link. -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 04:44, 12 May 2008 (UTC)

On the same track, how do you get the moving sprites from the games to the site? Videos? Theininen 20:18, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

No freaking idea. They're on Filb's server, and we share all the crap we've got with them and they with us, so... yeah. Plus Zhen helped extract them. TTEchidna 01:03, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
I'll ask him then, thanks. Just curious at this point. Theininen 03:06, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Who, Filb or Zhen? Zhen might not respond on his page... try the forums. TTEchidna 03:07, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Yeah, I asked Zhen & so far haven't gotten a response, and I don't have a forums account (yet), so I'll just keep waiting to see if Zhen will respond, and from some other discussions, it seems like you need to get to the programming, so... Theininen 13:47, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Unconfirmed

Well, there's another scan with high-resolution. Say no to that! It's official, so that means that it's not UNCONFIRMED!--Arceusguy 19:30, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Wait until someone gets CoroCoro and scans the whole damn magazine. TTEchidna 20:17, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Links

How do you make links to a specific part of a page? Theininen 22:00, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

I don't know how to explain it, but I'll give you an example. Put [[Potion#Max Potion|Max Potion]] to make this: Max Potion. Understand? --ニョロトノ666 22:17, 13 May 2008 (UTC)
Well enough, thanks. Theininen 00:42, 14 May 2008 (UTC) P.S. I tried it on ??? move to Unknown type, and it worked. Thanks! Theininen 00:48, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Max Potion should redirect anyway... TTEchidna 00:57, 14 May 2008 (UTC)
Shhh... --ニョロトノ666 22:16, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
Nope! TTEchidna 22:17, 15 May 2008 (UTC)

A mistake on a Userpage

Can you fix the link to Tyrogue on this page. It is in the Userspace so I can't do it...but it needs done. Thanks. MoldyOrange 23:07, 13 May 2008 (UTC)

Already done it seems... TTEchidna 01:01, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Sorry for the Bad Grammar.

I was tired when I wrote it, tell me if this sounds better.

  • Despite starting out as a Rock-type Trainer, of all the Pokémon Brock currently owns, only two are of the Rock-Type, (Geodude and Bonsly), and to go even further he only has one with him on hand.


I will wait for your reply before adding the edit. Sailor Earth 16:17, 14 May 2008 (UTC)

Numerals should be written out as words when less than ten or at the start of a sentence. Also, it's "Rock-type", not "Rock-Type". TTEchidna 02:49, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
See, there ya go! Not many know of the 2-vs-two rule, but it's there... and it looks better written when it's a small number. TTEchidna 20:09, 15 May 2008 (UTC)
What he's trying to say is 1,570,989 looks better than one million, five hundred and seventy thousand, nine hundred and eight nine. And three looks better than the picture Palkia was changed to 3. Posted by the Θρtιmαtum♏Talk|Links09:24 16 May 2008

Emergency

Ph34r is back and is posing as Optimatum just look at this talk page in the grammar bit and the dragon trio talk page. It says Optimatum bu the edits were made by user ph3r4ever or something like that.

Have no fear, Phearever is a good user, not the vandal Ph34r.....C is for Cookie 19:19, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Then why is he posing as Optimatum and making stupid comments, that's what the other one did. And it's not Phearever it's Ph34r4ever. Sailor Earth 19:23, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

I know for a fact that that is not the same user who vandalized bulbapedia, the name is similar, and although it says Phearever, it is just another name for his account....C is for Cookie 19:26, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Sorry. I feel like a right prat now. I read that story earlier, some bulbapedia shootout and when I saw the user name on that edit and the nonsense it was talking I thougt it was the vandal. Once again I'm very sorry. Sailor Earth 19:33, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Dont Worry. I thought the same thing when I saw that......C is for Cookie 19:35, 16 May 2008 (UTC)
Always make sure you look at the edits, not just the name. Believe me, vandals take good users' names all the time, so I don't think Optimus's taking of Ph34r's name is much different. TTEchidna 02:29, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Quick favor

Could you edit Bulbapedia:About and change the entry for the 9000th article so it reads Politoed666 instead of User:Politoed666? It just looks funny, and the template is used on the rest of the page. Thanks. --ニョロトノ666 19:38, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Done. TTEchidna 02:25, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Protect Jessie's Yanma

Please protect the article so people won't go making it before the episode airs. Thank you. --ケンジガール 20:21, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Done. Was gonna as soon as I saw the episode. TTEchidna 02:21, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Your opinion?

Could you throw in your two cents regarding the discussion on Talk:Version mascot? Apparently, I'm the only one so far who thinks sprite discrimination at this point in the game is ridiculous. --ニョロトノ666 03:03, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

...sprite discrimination. Well, so far we know that it'll be in its Origin Forme when encountered in-battle, so that's what it should be, much like the others are in their respective games. TTEchidna 03:13, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

So... uh...

How come you're doing all the E's on Forme again? I thought we were supposed to keep them off, unless they were there when Pokémon Co. and such translate them into English. At least, that's how this discussion seemed to end. I'm not on the forums, so it's possible I've missed something... --Martonimos((Talk)) 06:30, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

No, there wasn't anything on the forum.
And heck, the added e's look stupid. Glinn Mgraw 07:15, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Well, let's let TTE explain why he's doing it... --Martonimos((Talk)) 08:13, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Since they removed the e's from Origin and Another, it seems that they get that all e's doesn't make Olde Englishe. On Forme they're fine... unless it's Deoxyse's Defence Forme. TTEchidna 08:37, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
The "old english" Forme is exclusive to Giratina, correct? This doesn't apply to any other instances of Form out there? (such as Deoxys, and any other Forms there might be out there.) -- Jïörüjï Ðērākō.>.cнаt^ 09:26, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
I think so. As far as I know, it's not Sky Forme and Land Forme (or Skye and Lande formes, either), and it's definitely not on Deoxys's forms. And they removed it from Origine, although I don't think they ever had it on Another. --Martonimos((Talk)) 09:55, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Exactly. Deoxys is Defense Form. Not Defence Forme or Defense Forme. The fake Olde Englishe is exclusive to Giratina... and maybe Arceuse... TTEchidna 10:06, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
It would be excuseable to say Defence, you know... Glinn Mgraw 10:53, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Shh. It's Defense because that's what the stats are named. TTEchidna 11:20, 17 May 2008 (UTC)
Oh boy. You may want to check Deoxys on the official American Pokedex: http://www.pokemon.com/Pokedex/flash.asp --FabuVinny |Talk Page| 01:39, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Okay, Forme for everything then! TTEchidna 01:44, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Does this mean it's "Land Forme" and "Sky Forme?" As I recall, the Bulbanews report only mentioned "form" for everything, including Origin and Another. --Martonimos((Talk)) 02:06, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Well has Shaymin/Regigiggity-gigas's Sland/Sky Formes debuted yet? If not don't worry too much, but when referring to them as the form name always always name it as X Forme. Defense Forme, Origin Forme... so on. Yes. Forme.
And that means we're gonna have to start naming them as Sandy Cloak/Trash Cloak/Plant Cloak Burmy/Wormadam, and West Sea/East Sea Shellos/Gastrodon... TTEchidna 02:11, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Platinum Concept Art (Cartridge)

I created a concept cartridge art for Platinum on Photoshop, and was wondering whether I could upload it to the Archives, noting that it is fake, and post it on a userpage? Only I don't want people to think that it is real. Just thought that I should ask first. Theininen 13:34, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

U cud send it 2 me thru mail! I'd like to see it!--KukiTalk 14:05, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

Upload to Imageshack so I can see it first. TTEchidna 03:01, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
Could I just e-mail it to you? just send an e-mail to me @ theininen@optonline.net so I get your address, and I'll send it back to you. Theininen 03:13, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
But I never check my email. TTEchidna 03:24, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
If I e-mail it right now, you can check it. Theininen 03:25, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
I'm lazy. TTEchidna 03:29, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
If he e-mails it to me I can put it on PB for you? Porygon-Z 03:30, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
Peanut butter? TTEchidna 03:33, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
Photo. Bucket. Porygon-Z 03:34, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
I will e-mail it to you, but SLOW DOWN SO I CAN POST THIS COMMENT!!!! Theininen 03:35, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
Strike that, I will send it to you tomorrow, it's 11:30 and my dad is yelling at me for being up. Theininen 03:40, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
It's tomorrow, and I don't have an address to send to. Please give me one. Theininen 23:40, 18 May 2008 (UTC)
I still say Imageshack or something would be the better bet. You can link it here for everyone to see anyway... TTEchidna 23:45, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Here it is (We were starting to indent too far) [2] Theininen 23:52, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Well... as long as we can make sure that NO ONE thinks that this is real... As for putting it on a Userpage? Well... that's more iffy since the editing is blocked for the time being... TTEchidna 00:12, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
If I upload it to the Archives as "Fake Platinum Cartridge Concept" or something? and my talk will be enough to satisfy me. Theininen 00:14, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
And watermark it, yes. TTEchidna 00:16, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

It looks quite fake•PM102 00:30, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Uploaded here [3]. Should I make the above link go to there instead of the Imageshack one? Theininen 00:41, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
No, it's fine. And to link an image, just do [[:Image:(imagename).(extension)]]. See? TTEchidna 00:45, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
Gotcha. Theininen 01:31, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
I changed the background and edges a bit. Porygon-Z 17:59, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
Thanks, I forgot to fix that. Theininen 20:29, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

Map Shots

How do you get 'em? Do you photo each area, or get it from the guidebook? Theininen 21:08, 17 May 2008 (UTC)

They're online. People take them from ROM map editors. TTEchidna 03:00, 18 May 2008 (UTC)

Reply to Yall's Reply

kk. Thnx. Do you know when they are going back up? Can I do it on my talk page?

Teh Purple One 03:30, 19 May 2008 (UTC)Teh Purple One

For the first question, I would say no later than the end of summer. For the second, we strongly advise against that. Kinda defeats the purpose of the ban. TTEchidna 03:34, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

#8f8

i recall you recently creating color templates for all the games. while i think a majority of them are a bit strong, im not here to say that. what i AM here to say is that most routes have poke listings and do not use the updated templates. see: Route 101. you wan this done, yes? -- MAGNEDETH 03:19, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Of course. TTEchidna 03:25, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
well, i beat the game, so, ill put it on my list. i should be on more often now. on the point of colors though, why didnt you keep the same colors as before? example being that Emerald was "8f8" and the new one is much darker in color. it puts more emphasis the color, and less on what its representing. -- MAGNEDETH 03:57, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
Eh, I was redoing them all, so I figured I'd redo them all... TTEchidna 04:12, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

Route 202

Since I'm doing my own Sinnoh-type walkthrough on my website, I've decided to help Bulbapedia where it's lacking (Particularly the early routes). Now, on my website, I will put the trainer's dialogue in with their small "profile". Aside from continuing the contribution to Bulbapedia with the trainers info such as how much money or experience the trainer and their Pokémon will give, would it be acceptable if somehow I fashioned a way to put dialogue in their own summary in the routes (next to them not randomly on the route page)? I'm just wondering and if it's not wanted I'll go about my business like usual. I talk to much... Anyway this is just asking since that would be more thorough... Rpp 17:07, 21 May 2008 (UTC)Rpp

"Deoxys's four forms retconned"

When you say they were retconned, do you mean an "e" was added to "form"? Deoxys911 21:03, 21 May 2008 (UTC)

He didn't say that, I did. And yes. I said as much in that paragraph. I recentl found out that "retcon" means "retroactive continuity," so it may not be the most appropriate term, but I still think it fits. --Martonimos((Talk)) 22:01, 21 May 2008 (UTC)
