Mystery Dungeon WiiWare requiring translation

M07 on Hungama

Hungama announced about the premiur of m07 on 22nd Jan 2017. Can you update the page with this? Also add the movie logo. Also please add the info of m06 and m07 in that table in movies section. --Yash Sen 18:32, 18 January 2017 (UTC)

Also add the name of the movie (and the previous one too) in Devnagari, Deoxy ओर तोरी की स्टोरी. Weird why they spelled Deoxy instead of Deoxys. Thanks. → PikaTepig999 16:31, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

So it debuted on 22nd Jan. Again Japanese version, and opening credits were aired but not the ending. Also Disney XD India completed Indigo League arc on 24th January 2017 by airing EP080 and started Orange Islands arc on 25th Jan 2017 with EP081. Can you update the page with this? Also I don't think its really necessary but it would be better if you put the sentence in Indigo League para like from December 19, 2016 to December 29, 2016, reruns from Princess vs. Princess to It's Mr. Mimey Time aired; Misty Meets her Match aired before Snow Way Out! on December 30, 2017, skipping the banned Holiday Hi-Jynx. so to not cause confusion among the readers. Thanks! --Yash Sen 10:00, 26 January 2017 (UTC)

Added. --Abcboy (talk) 07:29, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

The Hindi name of the 6th movie Jirachi का वंडर should also be added. Also, I wonder if saying "from this movie onwards" is correct, as the opening theme sequence was aired as it does not have a song and only has instrumental music. The other movies have opening songs, which were skipped. Thanks. → PikaTepig999 08:22, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

XY140 ending

Why is it considered an insert song? True, it starts during the episode, but the credits are shown when it is airing, so that makes it an ending song. The only problem why it is called a insert song would be because the usual ending sequence is not present and the episode continues, but in my opinion, this makes it similar to the ending song of the movies. Counterview? → PikaTepig999 06:57, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

Where the ending themes are labeled エンディングテーマ ending theme, V is labeled as 挿入歌 insert song, including on the TV Tokyo website. I'm fine with including it in the infobox of XY140 as the ending, but it's not an ending theme. --Abcboy (talk) 07:29, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

Then maybe when should use a note for it explaining all this in the infobox too... (Also with the English themes) → PikaTepig999 07:44, 29 January 2017 (UTC)

Yuji

Excuse me, but is there a reason why Yuji from Duel should be at Yuji (Duel) rather than just Yuji? (I believe it's the only English Yuji, and it has no makron!?) Nescientist (talk) 19:24, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

Since there's several pages to disambiguate, putting all of the possible referrals in the lead would be unwieldly. In addition, his Japanese name is ユージ Yūji just like the other ones. --Abcboy (talk) 19:58, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

I see. But couldn't we just refer to Yūji there? I'm trying to think user-centric, and I believe almost anyone searching "Yuji" would like to end up at the Duel character (which I believe is the same logic for why we direct people typing "Bulbasaur" to the species page). Nescientist (talk) 20:19, 5 February 2017 (UTC)

A very minor question

Hello Abcboy! Sorry to bug you for this is very unimportant question, but I noticed that you added the Korean name for Sinnoh Now in January last year. How did you find that the name was 신오지방 지금? And is this the name given from the DPPt games? I ask because the anime gives the name 지금은 신오지방. I know that other languages, like Spanish, have different names from the game and anime, but I didn't want to assume that 신오지방 지금 was the in-game name. --Wowy_(토크) 07:14, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

It's from the games. You can check the text dumps linked on my userpage if you need to double-check. --Abcboy (talk) 07:57, 10 February 2017 (UTC)

More info?

Hello! This came up on the Pokémon Korea website, and it's also getting released as an special album. From the website, there doesn't seem to be any confirmation of it being the anime opening song, but just wanted to ask if you had any more information about it. Also, there's a big question mark at the end of the video. Not sure if I've missed anything recently, but any idea what it is? --Wowy_(토크) 08:41, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

The song doesn't match up with the Alola!! opening animation (and when songs like Victory and Pichumichu match up, it really should). Unless it gets a remix, I doubt it'll be used as an anime opening. No idea what the silhouette is.

I think the song deserves a page regardless, so if you could create one, that'd be great. --Abcboy (talk) 17:23, 5 March 2017 (UTC)

Edit warring

Hey there. I have a favor to ask you. Can you please lock the Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime page for a week or two just so we can prevent edit warring? --Seabiscuit2020 (talk) 17:10, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

Re:Electric Terrain

Sorry for the late reply, but I made the edit because in SM019, Sophocles mentions Tapu Koko's Ability being Electric Surge, hence why I figure it must've been the Ability activating at the start of the battle instead of the Electric Terrain move being used. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 07:50, 25 March 2017 (UTC)

Italics or not?

Hello, I was wondering if we should have italics in the names section such as on Red (Adventures) or any other page or if we should do it like on Ruby (Adventures), which in my opinion looks better. --Raltseye prata med mej 17:40, 25 March 2017 (UTC)

On sections like Potion#In other languages, italics looks better to me than bold. I don't think the italic Pokémon nicknames are necessary; IMO, something like the following would suffice.

Yellow's Pokémon Main article: Ratty → Names Main article: Dody → Names Main article: Kitty → Names Main article: Chuchu → Names Gravvy Language Name Origin Japanese ゴロすけ Golosuke From ゴローン Golone (Graveler) English Gravvy* Golosk* From Graveler Similar to Japanese name French Gravounet* From Gravalanch (Graveler) German Geon From Georok (Graveler) Spanish Gravvy Same as its English VIZ Media name Chinese (Mandarin) 小隆隆 Xiǎolónglóng From 隆隆石 Lónglóngshí (Graveler) Vietnamese Gorosuke Transliteration of his Japanese name

Pokemon in DXDI

So Disney XD India continued airing episodes from EP106 from today 4th April 2017 after 1 month hiatus after EP102. Disney XD also aired the episodes in same order as Hungama aired, airing EP103 instead of Holiday-Hi Jynx, EP104 instead of EP090 and EP105 instead of EP099. They started airing Johto Journeys arc from today 18th April with EP117. Also in movie 7 stanza please add the Hindi name of the movie as Deoxy aur Tori ki Story. Can you make the following updates in the SA page? Thanks in advance! --Yash Sen 06:15, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

Also, I don't know if this is notable but if it is, Disney XD held a Pokémon Movie marathon on 19 April, airing the 7 movies that have debuted on hungama, using the same version (with the same edits). Source: [1] Should this be added to the page ? → PikaTepig999 06:36, 19 April 2017 (UTC)

Soul-Heart Lyrics

You have the 11th lyric listed as "Let me be your guiding knight", citing the CITV captions. However, the non-English European dubs lean more to "guiding light". What should we go off of? Technickal (talk) 16:35, 18 April 2017 (UTC)

Two years between B2W2XY and Sun/Moon?

Hi there! I'm trying to track down citations for the core series timeline so they can be centralized in one place. I notice that in this edit, you wrote that Sun/Moon take place two years after B2W2 and XY. Could you point me toward where you got this from? I can't seem to find anything supporting it, but I'm probably just looking in the wrong place. Thanks! Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 20:12, 6 May 2017 (UTC)

Grimsley's Sun/Moon concept art is titled "Grimsley (two years later)". Since his design was the same two years after BW (in B2W2), it can only refer to two years from his last appearance in B2W2. --Abcboy (talk) 23:18, 6 May 2017 (UTC)

Japanese names

Is it a good idea to make redirect pages for all Japanese names in Katakana, like I did with シマコ‎ or not? Because サトシ‎ (Satoshi) is one (I redirected it to Satoshi though). Lokki (talk) 13:43, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

It's not necessary for all Japanese names, if it's common/popular enough then sure, but I wouldn't bother with minor characters. --Abcboy (talk) 13:46, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

All right, thanks! Lokki (talk) 13:54, 4 June 2017 (UTC)

With no evidence of SM033 being real, without any images, why did you create the article for it? Aren't we meant to wait until an episode is considered legitimate. Playerking95 (talk) 15:31, 9 June 2017 (UTC)

Confession

I want to make a sincere confession about my recent edits I made from a bit last year to early this year. I never should've reverted my edits when they were reverted, and I also want to apologize for any other trouble I caused on this wiki. I won't make any excuses. I'm just really sorry. I took a long break to try to get used to wikis like this, but now I feel maybe its best that I not edit on this wiki until I feel I am fully qualified for it. I sincerely hope I didn't cause any trouble, and if I did, I am very sorry for it. I didn't want to commit any blockable offenses, so maybe I should not bother editing here until I am fully ready to do so. In addition to my confession, I also have a video where I interviewed Veronica Taylor the original voice of Ash and asked her something about the banned seizure episode which I think could be important, but I'd rather not make any edits on that myself, instead, I'd like to have the admins ad the info for me if that's ok if I send a link to the video once I upload it. I hope you can forgive me. --User:TheGreenBeetle ((User talk:TheGreenBeetle|talk)) 18:42, 17 June 2017 (UTC)

Aim to Be a Pokémon Master single

Hi. May I ask if this article should exist, and if it does, is it good to go? Thanks. Ruixiang95 22:03, 7 July 2017 (UTC)

I'd wait to see if they announce a CD single for the song in the next month or two. The problem with it is that it only has the one song, and has placeholder-y cover art like some of the other digital singles that were later released on CD. You can still put the single cover on the song's page like on Team Rocket's Team Song if you'd like. --Abcboy (talk) 05:47, 8 July 2017 (UTC)

I guess this is no longer needed? — Ruixiang95 00:43, 20 October 2017 (UTC)

Also Nachiket sir said that he has dubbed till M10 and S09. Can you add this info in the SA page? --Yash Sen 09:25, 17 July 2017 (UTC)

Korean names

Hi Abcboy! I noticed that you added the Korean names for Pokémon Red, Green and Blue. Just curious, where did you get these names from? Were these names used officially from some other source? Because these games were not released in Korea, not even as a virtual console (possibly due to gambling?). On a side note, Pokémon Silver and Gold are being released as virtual consoles in Korea despite having working slot machines in the original Korean version. Do you think this is something that should be looked out for in the virtual console release?--Wowy_(토크) 10:00, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

IIRC Red, Green, and Blue were mentioned in one of the PGL tournaments or on the GRB ratings. The slot machines should definitely be checked, though I wouldn't be surprised if the GRB rating when revealed makes it obvious. --Abcboy (talk) 15:11, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

Editor's Hub updating?

I have been using that section of the site a little to see if there are articles I can help update. However, I notice the three articles currently listed as Pages Needing Improvements have all been updated at some point to be improved enough to either meet site standards or no longer be considered stubs. I saw the page has not been updated since January of this year as well. Would it be possible to update the Editor's Hub main page in the near future? Also, would it be possible to update Needed Articles and Pages Needing Improvement sections to include 5 articles needed or updated rather than 3? Asking as it seems there is a lot of blank space left below them on either Chrome or Firefox when looking at that page on either browser. Thank you for taking time to read this and I await your response. :) Frozen Fennec 15:17, 18 July 2017 (UTC)

Could you check something out?

I've been noticing lately that the categories for the latest things are not properly showing up such as the two Pokemon Adventures mini-volumes pages I helped create or even on the archives the latest cover images not being shown as being linked to a Bulbapedia page or even a picture gallery in one of the Archives' category page. Could be some kind of server error, but I wanted to give you the heads up as this is still going on. -Tyler53841 (talk) 23:35, 31 July 2017 (UTC)

Hey! I checked with Abcboy on this subject as I've also noticed some other bugs. Having inquired about those in the recently with higher staff, I learned that they may have started with the transition to the https setting on our Web pages. A victim of this that comes to my mind is e-mail alerts; I have not been receiving these for over a month now, and my watchlist, upon checking today, has multiple pages that I should have been notified for daily. So my suspicion is that the category problems may be yet another victim of the https transition. It will be one of the things we look into if we didn't know already. Thanks for bringing it to our attention! CycloneGU (talk) 00:43, 1 August 2017 (UTC)

Some random questions

Hi abcboy! I have a few random questions that have been bugging me for a while. These really aren't priority so feel free to answer them when you get the time!

1) Is there a way to search the text within a page with the search bar? For example, if I want to search how the {{m| }} template was used on different pages, I can't make that search using the search bar. It'll search for m instead.

2) Is there a reason why the Pokémon sprites have large white spaces around them? I presume this was because this was how they were extracted from the game data, and also makes all sprite boxes consistent with tall or wide Pokémon that can take up the whole box. However why can't we shrink the white space around them to make it more compact? (even the tall/wide sprites don't take up the whole space). It'll become a pain when a new generation comes in. I know there are templates floating around with the 'show'/'hide' option, but even these will benefit with smaller sprites.

3) If a page is wanted (they have red link), can an average user make the page without admin approval? (I'm talking about more obscure pages like 'Expedition Gadget' rather than a common 'new episode' page). If so, if I was to start the page on my userpage first (to polish it), will I need to get admin approval to mainspace it even though it was a wanted page?

Thanks!--Wowy_(토크) 11:01, 12 August 2017 (UTC)

1) You can use "insource:" to search the wikitext. For example, Special:Search/insource:"Pokémon Infobox" or a regex like Special:Search/insource:/Image:/

2) They are the dimensions they are for the same reasons as you said: to be consistent with the internal sizes.

3) If the page you're creating is complete and clearly notable then feel free to create it in the mainspace. It'd be best if you notified an admin so the page can be moved w/o leaving a redirect. --Abcboy (talk) 12:29, 12 August 2017 (UTC)

Hey there! First of all, I have to express my appreciation that you're updating protected USUM pages so speedily. Thank you!

I just noticed a couple of little things that slipped through the cracks. On Ultra Beast, you protected the page but didn't remove the protection request template. And on Necrozma, there's a typo in the paragraph about forms: it refers to "becoming its Dusk Mane Necrozma" and "becoming its Dawn Wings Necrozma", a relic of when the phrasing was "becoming its X form". Now that the forms don't have the word "form" after them, "its" shouldn't be necessary. Thanks in advance for addressing these! Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 23:20, 13 September 2017 (UTC)

No official sprite has been released yet (which is why one hadn't been uploaded), and as you yourself stated, you took it from another site online.

Updates to Template:Langlist(/h)

I'm not sure whether to ask here or the template talk itself. But anyway, is this update ready to utilize? For Chinese romanization, is it Hanyu Pinyin (Mandarin/Mainland China and Taiwan) or Yale (Cantonese/Hong Kong) first? And, is Brazilian Portuguese really needed, they are not available as languages in the games. This table is too long to be fully viewable in moblies, or are priorities given to desktop users?

Lastly, for the In other languages section for "List of ... form differences", is the sprites for the Pokémon necessary? (to make the table's width smaller) Thanks. — Ruixiang95 20:09, 1 October 2017 (UTC)

It should have Traditional / Simplified for the hanzi, and Pinyin (Taiwan) / Pinyin (Mainland China) / Yale (Hong Kong). Portuguese is for GO, like on the list of characters.

Do those items with no official Chinese names (since they were released before Sun/Moon (excluding those items released prior to SM but found in the internal data of SM; which have official names)? — Ruixiang95 17:32, 2 October 2017 (UTC)

The items I already marked with dashes don't have official names from the games. --Abcboy (talk) 20:04, 2 October 2017 (UTC)

Pokemon Adventures update

Shauna's Tri-P's english nickname has been confirmed as Furry, so a picture update is needed. However I also must report her Skitty was given a new nickname in XY Vol. 12 as Kitty instead of Neko though this is a more obvious translation (can be confirmed in Chapter 38). Have any ideas on how to address this? -Tyler53841 (talk) 04:11, 4 October 2017 (UTC)

The images have been moved. --Abcboy (talk) 23:35, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

Thank you. -Tyler53841 (talk) 00:16, 12 October 2017 (UTC)

Movie dates on Disney XD India

Just like how the dates of both Hungama airing as well as Disney XD airing are added for their respective seasons in the SA page, shouldn't the dates for both the airings be added for movies also? If it should be added, then m01 and m02 were aired on 4 May 2016, m03 on 5 June 2016 and m10 is going to air on 22 October 2017 on Disney XD India. --Yash Sen 07:26, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

Added. --Abcboy (talk) 23:35, 11 October 2017 (UTC)

Thanks. Also, the date of M08 on Disney XD India is 15 August 2017. --Yash Sen 07:49, 12 October 2017 (UTC)

ORAS Adventures Vol. 6

The cover image for Viz's mini-volume release of Vol. 6 for Pokemon Adventures ORAS has been revealed. Justed wanted to give you the heads up for this to work towards updating the list of volumes for VIZ's ORAS releases. -Tyler53841 (talk) 16:57, 16 October 2017 (UTC)

Thanks, uploaded it. --Abcboy (talk) 17:14, 16 October 2017 (UTC)

Box Set update

A little update needed for the Manga boxed sets is that in a few weeks from now Viz will release a new box set containing the mini-volumes of the X & Y chapter. I'll take care of setting up the new section and you can handle uploading the new picture and setting up the picture arrangement for that page. -Tyler53841 (talk) 14:16, 26 October 2017 (UTC)

S06 on DXDI

First 16 episodes of S06 which includes all the last 12 Johto episodes along with first 4 episodes of Hoenn saga aired on Disney XD India on 31st December 2017. Can you update SA page with this along with putting 31st as AG001 air dates for Disney XD in the original anime airdates table? Thanks! --Yash Sen 07:16, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

GrammarFreak01's pointless edits

I believed Tiddlywinks and ForceFire have already warned him/her about these kind of edits. I don't know if this warning still applies now. He started doing it again the same day the wiki is open to editing. Just FYI. Thanks. — Ruixiang95 10:44, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

Ah, shoot. Sorry for the above message. I didn't check properly before informing GrammarFreak01 and you. Please ignore this message. Sorry. — Ruixiang95 10:52, 4 January 2018 (UTC)

Best Friend's translation

Hello. I've completed translating the song Best Friend. I put the translation on my user page. It's the rough/literal translation but because I'm not native speaker, there might be part(s) that sound(s) strange to native speakers. Can you have a look and tell me if it's okay to put on the article? Saphir (talk) 02:00, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

It looks good, but I have a few comments which I'd appreciate if you could check:

"makes us feel difficult" (what does this mean exactly, in particular the word "difficult" in this context, or what is feeling difficult?)

Every moment passes (by) like nothing
(It) only makes us sadder
(We) suddenly remember there's a person who will listen,
No matter (if it's/whether it's) sadness or happiness they'll immediately be there

Everyone has friends
But (I only have/has only) one best friend [is the subject "everyone" or "I]
Always by my side whenever I need them
Don't mind (whether/if) the distance is near or far
Everyone has friends
But (I only have/has only) one best friend
Always carry(ing) the whole sky for me
Accompany(ing) me for life

Thanks! --Abcboy (talk) 04:51, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

Thank you, I'll fix ones you noted. About "difficult", well, it's hard to say about this word. In the original lyric, it literally means that life makes people feel tired, troublesome and the things like "life is so hard, so difficult" and "the world is all about hardship and nothing else". Well, that kind of feeling and I don't know how to convey this in English because I couldn't find any word with that kind of meaning there. Saphir (talk) 11:12, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

The disquiet of life sometimes makes it feel difficult Does that convey the correct meaning? --Abcboy (talk) 21:07, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

I've thought of something like life sometimes gives us hardship/a hard time That was more like it... Saphir (talk) 03:51, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

"A hard time" seems good. --Abcboy (talk) 09:42, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

Thank you very much for your help. Saphir (talk) 02:43, 16 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks

Thank you for helping a while back with the new number disambiguation when you made the pages for the new numbers. Though I did help get the job done with new USUM Pokédex numbers, there is still the matter of updating the Pokémon pages. Once a coding has been set up, let me know of it and I can help deal with the long process of getting it done. -Tyler53841 (talk) 03:11, 12 January 2018 (UTC)

At the moment the staff is considering removing or moving the regional dex from the infobox. --Abcboy (talk) 21:07, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

no surprise since the number of regions are growing and with that infobox it would make it too large, but I do think that moving the regional dex to it's own section might be a nice idea. -Tyler53841 (talk) 21:47, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

Voice Actors

We have a few pages where three voice actors are listed but on the page, only 2 come up. For example with Saywer's Salamence, we have Carter Cathcart voicing Bagon, Justin Anselmi voicing Shelgon and Kiyotaka Furushima voicing Salamence. I've listed it like this, |vaen=Carter Cathcart, |vaennote=as Bagon, |vaen2=List of English voice actors|Justin Anselmi, |vaen2note=as Shelgon, |vaen3=Kiyotaka Furushima, |vaen3note=as Salamence. Hope you can help.--BigDocFan (talk) 22:56, 13 January 2018 (UTC)

It's because the template didn't support three separate VA listings. I've changed the template to make that possible.--ForceFire 04:05, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks Sir, not often the same Pokémon has more than 1 Voice Actor or an entire evolutionary line has different voice actors.--BigDocFan (talk) 11:54, 14 January 2018 (UTC)

Template Help

Hi! Do you think you can update Template:HeldItems to include USUM input, or pass it along to someone who could? I'm sure if they were updated lots would be glad to help fill out the missing USUM info. Thanks. Lanthanum (talk) 14:19, 26 January 2018 (UTC)

It should now be updated. --Abcboy (talk) 14:47, 26 January 2018 (UTC)

Thanks! I was also wondering how the USUM dex numbers on Pokemon Info pages would be handled. Has anything been finalized? Lanthanum (talk) 14:56, 26 January 2018 (UTC)

Not yet, you can see the current state a couple sections up. --Abcboy (talk) 15:04, 26 January 2018 (UTC)

Convert my created User article to main article

I know, you're very busy. But could you convert my created User voice actors to the main article. In additional with the recent that I created tomorrow for the upcoming episode, Sara until the episode end, please? Singaporean (talk) 10:59, 31 January 2018 (UTC)

I'd like to report a possible vandal.

The user's name is Quasark. They vandalized a couple of pages and then undid it. Not sure if I should report this, but I figured worst-case scenario, I'll be told it's nothing. ¿¡Unowninator?! (talk) 16:49, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Move request

Hi Abcboy, I noticed that you recently moved the page for Pokémon 4Ever: The Voice of the Forest Sticker Storybook to match its title, which reminded me of a similar situation over at The Four Star Challenge, where the article is missing a dash present in the book title. Would it be possible to get this article moved as well?--Cold (talk) 23:24, 3 February 2018 (UTC)

Viz update

While the cover images for Vol. 1 for their upcoming releases of Sun and Moon as well as Pokemon Horizon have not been revealed yet, the release dates for the Vol. 2 of both series have. I'll let you handle making a volume list for Sun and Moon if you wish to. -Tyler53841 (talk) 04:06, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

The cover for SM Vol. 1 is already uploaded from the VIZ website. I can set up the lists later today. --Abcboy (talk) 15:51, 7 February 2018 (UTC)

Took care of setting up the vol. 1 page, so everything is good to go. Also I saw your sandbox for setting up a template for the Pokemon Adventures releases and I like it. When you do set it up, I would advise removing the extra links at the bottom of the pages for the links to the lists which I did for the purpose of connecting them though it will no longer be necessary. I can also help with that if you do not understand. One last note is that it is obvious that Viz is dividing the chapters into mini-volumes though the reason I held back in the past was to avoid speculation. While that note you put for Sun and Moon should work fine for now, when I help make the volume pages I will not list the chapters involved until after the volumes' release to avoid speculation (excluding the final volume), especially if the odd-numbered volumes from the original Japanese release is involved. -Tyler53841 (talk) 02:30, 8 February 2018 (UTC)

S07

So instead of completing s6 fully, Disney XD India started s7 from today on 12 Feb with AG041. Can you update the SA page with this? Thanks! --Yash Sen 07:31, 12 February 2018 (UTC)

Serious Question

Why is the airdate and title for episode 44 speculation along with the others it there are reliable soruces (which im sure don't lie) like: https://twitter.com/nickandmore/status/967229617810673664 http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?661443-When-will-the-Nebby-Arc-air-on-United-States https://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?p=9845533 there is proof no speculation. - unsigned comment from Feelitstill23 (talk • contribs)

None of those are a primary source, and for the purpose of Bulbapedia we require an official source such as the TV network, Pokemon.com, or major TV guides. Forums are not a reliable source. --Abcboy (talk) 13:34, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

Have asked Lisa Ortiz about the upcoming episode titles, I take it that is a valid source?--BigDocFan (talk) 13:36, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

That would be fine, yes. --Abcboy (talk) 13:46, 24 February 2018 (UTC)

M20 credit?

Was Billy Bob Thompson actually credited for voicing Ash's Charmander and not Charmeleon? Just checking to make sure- Sobanoodles (talk) 13:19, 4 March 2018 (UTC)

He confirmed voicing Charmander. --Abcboy (talk) 13:27, 4 March 2018 (UTC)

Sadly he didn't confirm Charmeleon, hoping to hear back from Lisa Ortiz on that in the near future, just have to be patient.--BigDocFan (talk) 13:30, 4 March 2018 (UTC)

Bear in mind that he may have just been another person, and not actually PokémonGamerGreat Bear (talk) 01:49, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

He spouted the same schpiel about being Pokémonmaster97's roommate. Not a coincidence. Also, I admit I reverted too many times, but I was NOT agreeing with him. No need to admonish me in that edit summary, Great Bear.--BlisseyandtheAquaJets (talk) 01:56, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

What do you mean by "admonish me"Great Bear (talk) 02:00, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Rather than say I over-reverted on the NIWA article, you said "opinion" in your edit summary like I agreed with the banned user. I feel like that was a chastising moment.--BlisseyandtheAquaJets (talk) 02:02, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

While your concerns are appreciated Great Bear, please keep in mind that all matters involving the blocking or banning of users is a staff concern that is handled on a staff member level. Please do not butt on staff talk pages before they have a chance to respond. This conversation doesn't seem to be going anywhere productive, so let's just go our separate ways now.--Pokemaster97 02:04, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

@BlisseyandtheAquaJets What I meant by it was just that I was removing that piece of opinion I never meant to suggest that you happened to agree with that user, no malice was ever intended. Please assume good faith.

@Pokemaster97 My original message only stated the possibility that it may have not actually been PokémonGamer but someone else and we may never know. BlisseyandtheAquaJets then later thought that I "admonished" them which then caused me to respond to themGreat Bear (talk) 02:13, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

*doesn't indent* You missed [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=User_talk:Pokemaster97&curid=213038&oldid=2756805 one of the reversion} that still has the guy's edit (not sure why the deletion is necessary though).

Also, if you don't mind me asking, it said he was blocked for being an "irredeemable user". What exactly does that mean? If you don't want to answer, that's fine. ¿¡Unowninator?! (talk) 06:08, 24 March 2018 (UTC)

Sorry for being late, but DXDI completed s07 airing in late Feb 2018 by airing 10 episodes every day and they completed airing the remaining s06 episodes as well in that same time. They also aired AG084 on 22nd Feb 2018, which was earlier skipped by Hungama. Looks like Disney is gonna proceed to s08 soon before Hungama.

Userboxes can only be used in the User: namespace, so you'll have to wait until you can create your userpage. Additionally, you're not allowed to use your User talk: page as a substitute for your userpage per the userspace policy. --Abcboy (talk) 01:56, 10 May 2018 (UTC)
