Talk:Name Rater

Greeting

In HGSS, the Name Rater says "Hello, there!" instead of "Hello, Hello!", should this be added to the trivia? Alexjuuhh 10:51, 24 May 2010 (UTC)

It should --Mikkim 09:16, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

Trading

If you trade a pokemon back to its original file can its name be changed? Rhadlow27 16:45, 24 July 2010 (UTC)

Yes you can, as long as the OT, trainerid and secret id are the same, the name rater will allow it. --Mikkim 09:16, 4 August 2010 (UTC)

Secret ID

Does the Secret ID really need to match to allow him to change your Pokémon's name? The article already states that event Pokémon only need the Trainer ID to match to change their name, and a user tried setting the Trainer ID only by cheating device and could still change its name. --SnorlaxMonster 08:37, 26 May 2012 (UTC)

"Inputted"

I'm not sure if this is just dialectal variance, but the past participle of input in my experience is just "input", not "inputted"--so, "after a name has been input" rather than "after a name has been inputted". Looking it up, apparently both are acceptable, but the former sounds more correct to me personally. Anyone else have any thoughts on this? Xolroc (talk) 18:55, 8 December 2016 (UTC)

Generation I

Apparently, a traded Pokémon in Generation I cannot be renamed, even if the player has the same OT and Trainer ID number. I traded a Pokémon back to myself from Generation II (a Seadra), and even though the Gen I game I traded it to was the same one it came from, I couldn't give it a new name.
