Cubone's Skull
- Cubone is wearing a skull even before its mother dies. This contradicts Cubone's PokéDex entries, which state that the skull it is wearing is that of its mother.
This was under Errors, removed for the reason that "This is an inconsistency in the games, not an error on the animators' part. They obviously can't draw it without a skull since there have never been Cubone without skulls."
I'm not going to revert it right off, so as not to make an edit war, but I think it should be considered an error, as the PO series is meant to be as close to the games as possible. Also, the second sentence of the reason doesn't even make sense; just because a Cubone's never held a carrot, that doesn't mean I can't draw it holding one (besides my drawing ability, but that's another story). If it's not an error, it should at least be noteworthy trivia. -- EnosShayremtalk 18:22, 10 January 2014 (UTC)
- The games have always had Dex entries that were contradictory to the ostensible storyline or even to the laws of physics themselves. I'd tentatively agree with the person who removed it; it's the games' inconsistency, and PO is merely following the games, not creating an error itself.
