Talk:Charon

Hair

Since all the other commanders of team galactic have their hair based on a Pokémon in their party what Pokémon is Plutos hair based off? From:User:Ultamatecharizard

Only one member is truly based on a Pokémon. The others are just speculation. --ケンジのガール 22:13, 14 September 2008 (UTC)

thats not true nearly all other members of team galactics hair resembles a Pokémon

No. It's not speculation. It's an opinion. -Sketchies 00:48, 7 October 2008 (UTC)

Theory

In the article, it says that "Pluto always wanted to hug his new friend, but he couldn't for obvious reasons." and "obvious reasons" has a link to Discharge. In my opinion, he couldn't hug Rotom because it was a Ghost. You can ride a Ponyta and not get burned, so why can't you hug a Rotom (if you could) and not get electrocuted? It also says "Pluto realized that Rotom had entered his toy. He could then finally hug his new friend.", if he couldn't hug Rotom because it's an Electric-Type, then he'd still be electrocuted. I think that they meant he could hug Rotom now that it had a physical form. Anybody else think so? Rpp 00:33, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Agreed. I'm removing the link to discharge. That was silly speculation anyways. We can do that for songs, but for a character? Still, I wonder what obvious reasons could mean. Ghost makes sense, but the fact that someone thought it was discharge means it isn't obvious. Silly logic. Satosuke 04:58, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Charon.

Thanks, Disney, for being such copyright freaks. TTEchidna 07:11, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Why Charon? Why didn't they just name him after another planet? Neptune maybe? --ケンジのガール 09:48, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Let's not panic, guys. This is pre-release info, after alll. Personally, I'd prefer Mercury :D --Manga-in-a-bottle 09:50, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Charon/Pluto has the whole evil underworld connection, I guess. At least Charon sounds almost like a real person's name though (albeit some weird kind of Hollywood name, lol) — THE TROM — 09:52, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Or they could name him Your Anus Uranus to follow the line... Mars, Jupiter, Saturn, and Uranus. --ケンジのガール 10:02, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Isn't Charon of of pluto's moons? or am I mistaken? --Force ^Fire talk 10:06, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Well according to my book, yes it is. But still, there was no good reason to change it. --ケンジのガール 10:09, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

According to Wikipedia, Charon is one of Pluto's moons]. ~~Takoto - サソデイ 10:11, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Am I the only one who actually LIKES the name Charon? --Maxim 16:35, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Well, maybe the English Nintendo guys figured Pluto was too cool a name for an executive you don't even get to fight. Pluto really should be Akagi's title, in my opinion (if the planet names are actually codename titles, which makes more sense to me then calling someone Mars, Jupiter, or Saturn). I was quite disappointed when they gave away Pluto to another executive, because Pluto is the God of the Underworld. Charon works for Pluto, so that would make more sense. Of course, Japanese names overrule English names, so I have no idea what the English Nintendo guys are doing, especially since they kept the other Galaxy Executives names the same. Satosuke 16:00, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

@TTE: Well, if Disney weren't such copyright freaks, we wouldn't get as cool a name as Charon. =D Besides, it's not confirmed that that's the reason, that's entirely speculation on PB's part. Cipher ^(Talk) 16:06, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Technically speaking, Pluto's not actually a planet anyway. If what you guys were saying about the player never battling Charon is true, the fact that he's named after a moon in the English version and a dwarf planet (Wikipedia or Google it) kinda make sense. Anyway, since we use the English names on this Wiki when we know them, is anyone going to move this to Charon? -- Nebula 16:08, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Circuit City is not an official source. No move unless an official source reveals it. For all we know, he might end up as "Andromeda" in the final product...--Shiningpikablu252 16:18, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

As stated on the talk page for Ruined World, until a source more reliable than Circuit City confirms the name, the article's staying here. Cipher ^(Talk) 16:19, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

Any signifigance that Circuit City has now removed the page? Also Charon is the primary moon of Pluto which is named after Charon, the ferryman to Greek Hell, pronouced with an sh as a planet but a k as the figure. Aura-Knight 23:40, 9 December 2008 (UTC)

I love how everyone is freaking out over this. Do you guys even read the TTEchidna's post? COPYRIGHT. --HoennMaster 05:35, 10 December 2008 (UTC)

Relevant to the article, people are just explaining to each other about the potential name Charon. Nobody's really freaking out. Aura-Knight 02:15, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

I honestly don't see how its a copyright issue. Pluto from Platnium is no where close to being the dog off of Disney. And how can Pluto the ex-planet co-exist with Pluto the dog if Copyright was an issue. Because I honestly doubt Pluto the dog existed before the name. It's not the same thing with Hamilton. Sure I'll buy they didn't want to risk being sued. But I doubt there would even be a problem. --Dman dustin 02:30, 11 December 2008 (UTC)

Well duh. Disney liked the new planet when it was discovered and named a dog after it. And then he went all nuts about copyright and anytime anyone gets near his cash reserves, he bites. TTEchidna 01:13, 18 December 2008 (UTC)
