Magical creatures?

In the movie Arceus and the Jewel of Life Pokémon are repeatedly referred to as Magical Creatures a number of times. should page be added? maybe as an indirect? 1ted59 01:28, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

I think it should be a redirect, and mentioned in this article. CuboneKing 01:40, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Speculation or fact?

That the word Pokémon was "created" by Ash and Co. The word did not exist until Ash and Co. went into the past. When they went into the past they explained to Damos what they are. After the events of the movie, Damos started using the word "Pokémon" to refer to "magical creatures". Then after centuries go by, "magical creatures" is obsolete. We still did not get an explanation on how the word "Pokémon" came in. So, if you understand what I'm saying, would this be speculation or fact? One reason to back this up is, at the beginning of the movie, when Arceus arrived, he called Pokémon "magical creature". Then at the end when Ash and Co. returned, he said did not call them "magical creatures", he called them "Pokémon".--Midnight Blue 02:57, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

You know what, you're right. Good thinking! CuboneKing 03:00, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

I took me a while to figure out how to write it. Well, do you think we should get other opinions?--Midnight Blue 03:06, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Ask an admin, maybe. Getting other's opnions is a good idea. CuboneKing 03:08, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Which admin is having a good day?--Midnight Blue 03:09, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

I actually don't think there is a signle admin online. CuboneKing 03:12, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

There has to be.--Midnight Blue 03:16, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Nate made an edit recently, but I don't think so. CuboneKing 03:18, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

TTEchidna is on the forums.--Midnight Blue 03:19, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

I wasn't counting the forums. CuboneKing 03:20, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Ok, man....this sucks, they are usually on here like all the time.--Midnight Blue 03:23, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

It seems as though admins are never there when you need them. I've felt that too much. CuboneKing 03:24, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

That's true lol--Midnight Blue 03:26, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Oh! Nate's on! CuboneKing 03:27, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

HEY GAIS can you quit spamming up the recent changes with your conversation, thanks. Sorry to put it so bluntly, but cmon, talk pages aren't for conversations... ▫▪Ťïňắ ^♫♥ 03:27, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Sorry, yea it did get out of hand.--Midnight Blue 03:28, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

If that is added to the article, methinks it would be an Ontological paradox.--MisterE13 03:29, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

oops... As I said MB, Nate's on. Ask him. CuboneKing 03:30, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

The word "Pokémon" was no more created by Ash than Johnny B. Goode was created by Marty McFly. TTEchidna 03:31, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Also, if you need us and we're on the forums, a quick VM will work better than flooding the Recent Changes.--RexRacer 03:32, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

I'll keep that in mind. Thanks. CuboneKing 03:34, 22 November 2009 (UTC)

Well, I put the "___" b/c i could not think of a word. I know they did not create it. Ok, what about we just put that it is still unknown where the term "Pokémon" came from.--Midnight Blue 03:36, 22 November 2009 (UTC)
