Hey buddy, can you please tell me the name of that book or magazine in which you saw that Zoey's Gastrodon news. --♫♪Adyniz♪♫05:17, 7 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
Sure thing! The book is ポケットモンスターダイヤモンド・パールまるわかりじてん; its ISBN number is 978-4097510345, and it's available to order on Amazon.co.jp. It's actually a board book (like the kind made for toddlers, so that they can chew on the book or whatever without doing any serious damage), but it's pretty neat. :3 梅子❀✿05:51, 7 October 2009 (UTC)Reply
it kinda should belong in the special abilities section though. i mean i get what you're saying, but is there anyway that stuff can be there?
people dont read the trivia anyway when they're looking for the abilities of Pokémon (; - unsigned comment from TheLastCharmander (talk • contribs)
You're userpage looks quite amazing, how do you get all of them boxes and such though?
- unsigned comment from ShinyGlaceon (talk • contribs)
Which boxes do you mean? You could look at the coding (by clicking "edit this page" at the top) to see if you can figure out how it all works; if you can't figure it out, tell me what you don't understand and I'll try explaining.
Pretty much the Pokemon trainer boxes and grouping segments for each section into a box and such. Also userboxes? Don't quite understand those as much either. =[ Sorry if it's a bother I ask so much.
ShinyGlaceon01:25, 15 February 2010 (UTC)ShinyGlaceonReply
Trainer boxes, like these? I basically (very heavily) modified the {{Party}} template. Take a look at this for an example of how to use that template.
To group everything into boxes I just put everything into a huge table - take a look at the code of my page to see how I did it, but in its most basic form a table is coded something like so:
{|
|-
| cell one
| cell two
|-
| cell three
| cell four
|}

HGSS Pokédex entries
Latest comment: 5 January 20107 comments3 people in discussion
I don't know if you're somewhat in charge of this right now but shouldn't the HGSS Dex entries be listed as "Currently unknown" or in Japanese with monospaced English (through the tt element)? It's because I'm seeing lots of Pokémon articles with the HGSS entries in English, making those unaware to think that the games' English versions have been released. =S Pokemon lover19:01, 4 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
Haha, I'm not in charge of anything, but I can answer your question. The HGSS entries for Gen III and IV Pokemon are being listed with {{tt}} (or they should be; if they aren't then someone's gonna get a beating). The entries for the Gen I and II Pokemon are exactly the same as they were in Gold and Silver, so those are there in English (fifty bucks says that if NoA does make any changes to their translations, it would be the odd punctuation or grammatical tweaking in maybe two entries). That's how the Dex entries have been since September, the EB has always been in support of that (they can slap me upside the head if I'm misinformed here), and if someone is under the impression that HGSS is released in English simply because there are English Dex entries then I think that's the least of their problems. :P 梅子❄❅19:26, 4 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
I know you aren't in charge, but I think you said that you were going to get the JP Dex entries and translate them to English (using the {{tt}} element, of course), that's why I asked you. ;-) So it seems you're gonna have to beat someone or someones 'cause I might have saw some Gen III & IV Pokémon articles with English Dex entries that weren't following the rules.
Okay, I just went over all Generation III & IV Pokémon entries and fixed the perpetrators. It's a good you brought it up too because I was able to fix some of the entries that were wrong >_< ... we still have a bit of work to do to finish the entries off though haha... (Yaminokame01:42, 5 January 2010 (UTC))Reply

haha ;) Unfortunately I don't have that much time to fill them in right now with the English translations, but I can try to move over the dex entries that I filled in on the ポケモンWiki Pokémon pages at least for right now :p ... that should at least get that out of the way so we can continue the fun part and hopefully finish them all off haha ^^ (Yaminokame06:33, 5 January 2010 (UTC))Reply

Okay, so basically that page says that, as was announced in May 2002, The Gameboy Mobile System shut down on December 14, 2002, and it thanks everyone for using it.

I notice you've been updating the PokéGods page. I was wondering why you were doing so, and where you've been getting your information, if anywhere other than your head. Redstar18:03, 11 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
Why: Because it was a huge phenomenon back in the day, and thus a notable part of the fandom's history.
Just curious. It's just a bit coincidental that this page has begun being updated simultaneously as the only definitive PokeGod page on the Internet, so I wanted to be sure no theft was involved. Carry on. Redstar18:29, 11 January 2010 (UTC)Reply
Translation and confirmation
Latest comment: 17 January 20105 comments3 people in discussion
According to the article on the Japanese wiki, the bulletin boards were shut down on December 31st (which I did notice before), and that in the last third of the month updates to the site will become irregular.
Due to personal reasons, by the end of December, this site's (Pokeani's) updates will be temporarily halted.
I am not thinking of closing the site itself. But for a short while from now on, I will mostly have no time to update the site, and even watching (or recording) the anime on Thursdays will be difficult (so quick updates will be impossible). There are various reasons, and this is what I've decided.
At this point in time, I don't know when I'll be able to resume updates. I'll probably resume when things calm down. However, I'm expecting that even after reopening, it will be difficult to return to the site's current update style, so I'm considering switching over to being a wiki site.
Also, for purely my own convenience I will be closing all the bulletin boards and polls by the end of December. (Because I really can't moderate them from now on.)

Charizard offical Sugimori's art
Latest comment: 22 February 201011 comments4 people in discussion
Well the real Sugimori's art is the picture with the real colors, the image before than this one. The another one is only a fanart.
No... Sugimori colored Charizard with these color. No with new color! The offical site of pokemon the color not are this .I prefer the new color but the REAL COLORS is the before. The image must be change!
Either way it was altered. I don't know why there was need for correction anyway but it's your choice after all. IMO, this is more of the "OMG! CHARIZARDZ LOOKZ BETTERZ!" reaction people will get than anything else. Same goes for Charmander. ポケモンあいこうか14:09, 22 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
Sigh... okay, please read here. I suggest reading it all, but if you decide not to, the basic gist of it is that Game Freak saved the images as CMYK (cyan-magenta-yellow-black) because the images were intended for printed material. Official sites have used those images as-is instead of converting them to RGB (red-green-blue) for computer displays, so they do not look as they should. The images on the archives are being converted from CMYK to RGB, so that they display on computers as they were meant to be. 梅子❄❅15:49, 22 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
OK, I now know that the artwork is being converted, not altered. If so, I don't have a problem with it. Just a question, though, color correction is not considered fanart in any circumstance, correct? I'm just asking to avoid future complaints. ;-) ポケモンあいこうか16:14, 22 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
Honestly, I can't imagine how color correction could ever be fanart in the first place. I guess the definition of "fanart" is up to personal interpretation, but in my opinion I've always figured that fanart meant... actually drawing (or painting, or whatever) something from one's own imagination, just using characters from another person's work (eg. drawing Charizard in a pose imagined up by the fanartist him/herself). Buuuut then we could also get into a debate into what art is in general, and that's a whole other can of worms that I'd rather not touch. 梅子❄❅16:20, 22 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
The only reason why I called it fanart in the first place was due to my unawareness of the process being used. But since some people may not have figured that out yet, I was just trying to clear any doubts left. ポケモンあいこうか16:26, 22 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

Well you could've fooled me. Still, I don't appreciate the attitudes of the people on this wiki. I've been disagreed with on other wiki sites, but my god this wiki is ridiculous.

As you've mentioned several times before, these characters' hair colors are never explicitly stated in canon, and thus the colors listed are merely opinion - and the opinion that we go with is the one that the majority agrees on. Just because you believe your opinion is "fact" does not make it so; it is still opinion, and an unpopular one at that. If we succumb to one person who disagrees, we will then be bombarded with complaints from... everyone else. So yes. Majority rules. 梅子❄❅07:05, 14 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
Doesn't seem to justify it to me. And while in some cases I would see how without statements my opinion is just that, I don't base my opinion on just that, I base it on what I know to be fact. It is not my opinion his hair is clearly a shade of orange, it is not my opinion his hair is not brown. It's just simply so. If it were stated his hair was brown, I would honestly have never thought to argue in the first place. It is just unfortunate I had to argue with people who were clearly not knowledgeable enough on the subject. Getsuei07:08, 14 February 2010 (UTC)Reply

French versions of HeartGold and SoulSilver coming out in Canada
Latest comment: 28 February 20105 comments4 people in discussion
Just learned something weird. Canadians will not only have the English North American version, but also the French(from France) versions availlable for both games. However, the names will NOT be 'Coeur doré' or 'Âme argentée' but will be 'Or Heartgold' and 'Argent SoulSilver'. Maybe this trivia should be added to the HGSS game page(which is protected so only admins can edit.) The Canadian French version is the exact same as the one released in France.Here are the images from Toys R Us Canada : TokoyamiTheDark19:52, 23 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
So basically, Canada is now getting the French versions too, right? The French names for the games are already known and Canada is getting the European French version, not a Canadian French one, much like the UK receives the USA version, only with possible mistakes fixed (e.g.: Mawile's name incorrectly spelled Mawhile in its Pokédex entry in USA RS). ;-) And I'm not counting the censorship the European versions have suffered since Platinum. ポケモンあいこうか21:58, 23 February 2010 (UTC)Reply
