Art
I've found the Sugimori artwork for Lance. Should I put it in the infobox or no? ZestyCactus 17:12, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
- Where did you find it? If it's the legit Sugimori art, yeah, Go for it. --electAbuzzzz 17:20, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
- Done. And this art is from the HG/SS main website, so it's legit. --Jonouchi 19:55, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
Green Hair
What is up with green hair in Pokémon? The Galactic grunts have it as does Lance. Why do people have a non-existant hair colour. And, could this mean that Lance was related to Galactic Grunts or used to be a member of them? Solar Dragon 20:04, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
- wp:Hair dye. The second one's speculation.--Dark ICE (User:Cold)(page, talk) 20:09, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
- Sorry. Should have used the forums for that. Solar Dragon 20:11, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Promotion?
This is probably as fanon as all get out, but isn't it possible that Lance was that Grunt from the Slowpoke Well and just got Promoted? I mean, HGSS Lance uses Golbat and Weezing, where the Well Grunt used a Koffing and the Executive used a Golbat. It's possible, I guess. But there's no proof.. I dunno. Notable?--Purimpopoie 18:10, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
- Well. I was wondering about that, too. Lance in Gen. IV is like a blending of that Grunt and the Executive from Radio Tower, who trained a Golbat. In HGSS, Lance was the Executive since the beginning. In Generation II, there was no word about that Grunt getting promoted (he'd still have a Koffing or Weezing after promotion, wouldn't he?). So, I'm rather thinking that Lance is a Gen. IV version of that Executive and that they decided to retcon that Grunt by placing Lance in his place (If they didn't do that, Lance would be an underused character). --Maxim 18:22, 25 October 2009 (UTC)
- If that's the case, saying that 'he existed since GSC' is presumptuous. I think that should at least be changed to say 'Lance may have existed as an Executive in the Radio Tower in Gen 2.' Also, just because Gen 2 Executive has a Golbat and appears in the same place isn't enough to say he definitely is Lance. --The Great Butler 00:23, 27 October 2009 (UTC)
- Then what? A "spiritual replacement"? Invisible evil twin brother? --Maxim 13:22, 29 October 2009 (UTC)
- If nothing else, Lance is based on the original Executive. He isn't the exact same guy like Apollo is. --The Great Butler 01:57, 2 November 2009 (UTC)

US Name
His name is officialy Proton [1]
I know that his name was changed, but I don't think the other rocket admins needed new names. --~Sparen of Iría~ 21:38, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
- We know but aren't changing it because serebii didn't reveal his source. This means that we can't check to see if it is official. Turtwig A (talk | contribs) 21:41, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
- Why must there be a topic like this on every character's article?! Anyways... like Turtwig A said, Serebii.net is not an official source, so we're waiting either for Serebii to reveal where he got this info, or for the names to be confirmed by an official source. --ZestyCactus 21:44, 3 February 2010 (UTC)
Error
There's an error in this section of the page, specifically that his name is listed in the template as "Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal" when it should be "Rocket Executive". Since the page is protected... yeah, just pointing it out. -- Dlakii (Talk!) 10:49, 18 February 2010 (UTC)
