Talk:Sentret (Pokémon)

Due to special coding in place in the article, the artwork featured on this article will change every year on November 21 and October 15 in celebration of the releases of Gold and Silver in Japan, and Gold and Silver in the United States. This will only affect the artwork shown in the infobox. This changes every year, so when the time comes, here to return to the page and change the display.

Raccoon

Behavior I'll grant, but that thing looks like a racoon to me. - unsigned comment from Blackjack Gabbiani (talk • contribs)

>As you can see, Meercats also have stripes that run down their backs and tails, and blackened eyes:

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.

I'm looking more at the tail... - unsigned comment from Blackjack Gabbiani (talk • contribs)

How about a FERRET, considering most pokemon don't change what they're based on when they evolve, and Sentret could just as easily refer to a sentry ferret. - unsigned comment from Sk8torchic (talk • contribs)

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

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)

It is native to Unova, so this is still unresolved.ZeroLinkYoshi (talk) 14:45, 18 November 2013 (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)
