Talk:Totem Pokémon

Stat boosts

Just a minor style note, wouldn't it be a little easier to replace the "Attack, Defense, Sp Attack, Sp Defense, Speed +1" text with just "All Stats +1"? Kohdok (talk) 06:45, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

The totem auras don't boost accuracy and evasion, so "all stats" is inaccurate. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 06:46, 2 December 2016 (UTC)

Movesets?

Should we incorporate the moves the Totems and their allies use on the page as well? Serebii.net has them listed on the Island Trials subsection of its Sun/Moon page. I would enter them myself, but I am uncertain of how to do so without breaking the formatting. --UB00 (talk) 06:43, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

It's not really worth it here. It's already on location pages. Tiddlywinks (talk) 06:50, 11 December 2016 (UTC)

To add to that, we can't steal information from other fansites, so even if we wanted to include them, we'd have to compile them ourselves (since if Serebii has an error and we duplicate that error, it's strong evidence that we've stolen from them).

Totem Pokémon being an "alternate form".

Hey, aren't the Totems just bigger versions of their normal counterparts, if one were to take away the aura? For instance, a regular Gumshoos is much smaller than the protagonist, but a Totem-size Gumshoos is almost taller than the player character. Technically, they're an "alternate variation" of their normal counterparts, with no difference in moves, stats, etc. Would this be worth noting? Also, I've discovered that if Totem-size Pokemon are hacked into the save, then they cannot be traded via GTS/Wonder Trade.IM-T-MAN2 (talk) 16:14, 11 December 2016 (UTC)
