But there are more than two worlds, the one from PMD (Pokémon Mystery Dungeon)Red/Blue, and now the ones from PMD Time/Darkness/Sky. So, they have to be distinguishable from one game to the next, otherwise, it would be a mess. Sky needs ALOT of updating on Sky peak.

Project page Project talk To-do list List of Locations


This is the Project Locations talk page. If you have any suggestions, inquiries, or questions, please don't hesitate to ask.

"Episodes Featuring" and "Trivia"

I think it would be cool to add those sections. Just a suggestion. If you don't mind, I'd like to also add a map section so I can add them to the location articles as they get completed.--LynnCreed 11:01, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Episodes featured would be a good place to start, certainly. The maps, well, we'll see after we get all the non-game places, eh? TTEchidna 21:28, 9 April 2008 (UTC)Reply

Almia

Almia REALLY needs some editing. There are so many pages that don't exist, and the ones that do are stubs. It HAS come out in Japan, you know. We DO have access to this info. Even though we might not know the English names of these places, there should at least be information on them! TorchicBlaziken (talk)

Header/sidenav options font size on project page

Just noticed in the project page that the header and sidenav options font sizes are notably decreased. Currently happening in Firefox, IE and Opera.     -–<×vVvvv τλικ to ς1tHςι3r ^^vVv×>–- 05:56, 21 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Narrowed the culprit down to the Locationstub template. Take the template out and the page is fine. Shall check the template code as the other stub templates aren't giving their Project pages the same problem.     -–<×vVvvv τλικ to ς1tHςι3r ^^vVv×>–- 16:22, 25 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Best Practice Article

Is there a best practice article that all the other article should look up to?--Clarky13 22:51, 31 January 2009 (UTC)Reply

Yes, there is Clarky. Look on the project page. It has been updated.--Clarky13 09:22, 23 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
Now who's crazy...? Nice job on the update though. — THE TROM06:28, 24 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
But regarding the best practice article, both Cerulean Cave and Turnback Cave are missing information from the Pokemon section of each article.... I'm not sure if you'd call that best practice, but the rest of the article looks alright. — THE TROM06:32, 24 February 2009 (UTC)Reply
I like them because they have a wide range of galleries of each floor and room. And I'm not crazy, at least I have a userpage :p--Clarky13 06:43, 24 February 2009 (UTC)Reply

Confusion about a few things

I edited Pallet Town awhile ago and the other day I was thinking, why are Gary's battles listed there, shouldn't they be on Professor Oak's Laboratory, I mean, isn't that standard for these situations, kind of like Jubilife TV? Speaking of that, shouldn't the Pokémon you get from Oak be on the Lab page too, and also why are the Pokémon party boxes like they are here, and not how they are done normally?--Spriteit 11:14, 3 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Well, it says on the data screen that your starter Pokemon is received in Pallet Town, not Oak's lab. I guess the battle is listed for similar reasons. — THE TROM04:39, 4 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
But the battle and getting of Pokémon clearly happens in Oak's Lab, even though it says Pallet Town, that could be just a generalisation. --Spriteit 23:53, 5 April 2009 (UTC)Reply
In the game, Professor Oak's Laboratory isn't a location, it is still Pallet Town.--Clarky13 01:01, 10 April 2009 (UTC)Reply

Gen I maps

Can someone please tell me how can I get the different maps of the locations in Generation I? It's because between RG, B, and Y, they're different. I need all 3 variants of the maps (RG, B, and Y - Japanese versions) because I'm uploading the games' soundtrack on YouTube but I also want to put pictures of the maps in the tracks of locations. That's why I need them in all their variants, from the Japanese versions and preferably in black and white like the Gen I maps present on the 'pedia's articles.

Some articles have maps, some don't. If you have a map, upload it, please.--Clarky13 07:51, 8 June 2009 (UTC)Reply

Gen IV maps

I think there are quite a few maps from Gen IV which generally suck. And by suck, I am of course referring to maps which are not at 1:1 ratio, maps which are incredibly blurry, maps which were blatantly scanned out of some guide, maps which are scribbled over, maps which have massive JPEG compression artifacts, etc. My suggestion: look at some of Cadellin's maps, and consider that quality to be your goal when making maps. To start this off, I will be posting a new map of Eterna Forest either tonight or tomorrow morning (it's currently just past 11 o'clock here). Yes, I know Cadellin made the old map, but it was not very good quality. Definitely not his/her best work. Still, his/her other work is absolutely beautiful. See Valley Windworks for an example. Anyways, I'm new to Bulbapedia (not to Wikipedia), but I'm here to contribute. Nuck Chorris 06:17, 1 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Okay, I uploaded it to Bulbagarden Archives (a:Image:EternaForest.png), but on the old image, a:Image:Eterna Forest.png, I don't know what to do. On Wikipedia I know you'd tag it with {{Superseded-image}}, but that template doesn't seem to exist on Bulbapedia/Bulbagarden Archives. So, what should I do with the old image? Don't worry, I can assure you mine is far better quality. Oh, also, there is a side route which the Pokémon games consider part of Eterna Forest, but which were not included on the old map, and are really not covered by any map/article. I have a bunch of unused space at the top left corner of the map, so should I put an inset there for that side route? I know I use that side route all the time, plus there is a 4-tile patch of soft, fertile soil there, along with a girl who gives you an item, I think something for fashion or one of the other things with no purpose besides cosmetics. Please help! Nuck Chorris 02:03, 2 August 2009 (UTC)Reply
First of all, thanks for the great quality of work you have put in. I really love it and hope t see more of it. Secondly, Bulbapedia isn't Wikipedia. There is a difference between the two, we want more of an aesthetical lean toward them, but we are not like Wikipedia. When uploading images on the Archives, you can replace the first one and upload over it. Now, as for your side route problem, you can add a section to the Geography section, add a bit of info and then add the picture as a thumbnail on the side, because its not really needed in the infobox.--Clarky13 06:56, 8 August 2009 (UTC)Reply

Pokémon World (Mystery Dungeon)

Shouldn't this be counted as a region, since it is seperate from all the others??--Smartkidhen 20:10, 28 December 2009 (UTC)Reply

I thinks so. It should be added to the To-Do list for the project.--Spotman234 08:18:25 December 2009 (UTC) But there are more than two worlds, the one from PMD (Pokémon Mystery Dungeon)Red/Blue, and now the ones from PMD Time/Darkness/Sky.
