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.

	I swear I didn't know she was level 2.

Anyway this is what it looks like enlarged.

	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. Optimatum^Talk|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? Optimatum^Talk|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. -- MAG NE DETH 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:T T Echidna

Optimatum^Talk|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- Optimatum^Talk|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!--Kuki Talk 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? Cool Pikachu !

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.. Cool Pikachu !

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 Cool Pikachu !

Wikipedia. TTEchidna 00:32, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

What about Wikipedia? Cool Pikachu !

It's everything. TTEchidna 00:35, 5 May 2008 (UTC)

ok? Cool Pikachu !

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. -- MAG NE DETH 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!! ^Moldy _Orange 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?!? -- MAG NE DETH 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.... -- MAG NE DETH 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... -- MAG NE DETH 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? -- MAG NE DETH 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:

And, TESTING IS CANCELED, there is NO Further testing, so the link is below. anyone is free to join, and please spread the word.
http://z11.invisionfree.com/Battle_Forums_GR/index.php?s=120f2e471d35197d4dff45efbe3cc20d&act=idx Patriotfan09 02:54, 7 May 2008 (UTC)

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)

Request

Sorry this could contribute to a quicker archive, but User:Kenji-girl/Directory needs a closing div tag. Posted by the Θρtιmαtum♏^Talk|Links10:29 10 May 2008

Congratulations

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:

Bulbabot is non-functioning.
You're gonna keep editing more than BB
You're just exaggerating. Posted by the Θρtιmαtum♏^Talk|Links06:57 11 May 2008

Well it is still functioning but...
That one's true.
And maybe this too. TTEchidna 06:59, 11 May 2008 (UTC)

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)

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)
