Talk:Ash's Staraptor

It used Gust, and that is it. We could say that Gust was really supposed to be Defog or whatever. We could say ANYTHING, because this error was present in the original version as well. Keep it plz. D: TinaTheKirlia ♥ File:281MS.gif 18:03, 10 October 2007 (UTC)

I just watched One Big Happiny Family, and this time Ash told Staravia to do Whirlwind. File:Ani471MS.gifPokemaniac102 16:25, 25 November 2007 (UTC)

I watched Throwing the Track Switch this morning and I believe Ash said Gust!--User:Kuki

Staravia's "Wing Attack"

Couldn't Staravia's Wing Attack be Steel Wing cause it's wings glow white when it uses it.

No, Ash tells Staravia to use Wing Attack, not Steel Wing. --Theryguy512File:Trozeiani025.gif 11:57, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Well I kow that, but the english dub could have gotten it wrong.

Ash says Wing Attack in the Japanese version too... --FabuVinny ^T-C-S 22:08, 3 January 2008 (UTC)

Protection?

Yeah, I saw Staraptor in DP066's preview... so I'm wodering, would it be a good idea to protect this and DP066 until next week just in case? Even though we see no "whoo, white glow on Staravia" like before with Aipom... TTEchidna^G_SDS! 22:26, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Well it was also rumored that Paul was batteling with a Honchcrow, so maybe his Murkrow evolved with Staravia. I say that both pages should be protected. --Theryguy512 23:47, 31 January 2008 (UTC)

Ash's Staravia is STILL Staravia. Turns out that Staraptor is Reiji's Staraptor. Ej92 12:12, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Please tell us more about DP066.-Billy4b2004 12:18, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

New Attack?

The Staraptor shown in the preview shows Staraptor coming out of a blue aura like light. That could mean it learns Brave Bird or Close Combat. What do you think?

Can you get me a link to the preview off Youtube or something? --Theryguy512 11:50, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah here it is. You'll see it at 00:21 or 22 http://youtube.com/watch?v=vOnompLPwlU

If it know's Close Combat, it defiently belongs to Maylene....--Theryguy512 22:18, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

How's that prove anything? TTEchidna^G_SDS! 23:33, 1 February 2008 (UTC)

Well I was just saying that if it knows a Fighting move, it probably belongs to Maylene.....--Theryguy512 00:07, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

That's like thinking Buneary once was Candice's because it knows Ice Beam... TTEchidna^G_SDS! 00:42, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

No, I'm just saying that since there's a Staraptor in the picture and we don't know whose it is, I'm just making an {probably incorrect) assumption. --Theryguy512 02:41, 2 February 2008 (UTC)

All Staraptor can learn close combat......-Billy4b2004 05:20, 6 February 2008 (UTC)

Im pretty sure it was Brave Bird, because Paul's older brother had a Staraptor that used the same move. He probably helped Ash learn it just like the famous trainer in Hoenn who taught Ash's Swellow aerial ace.

Staravia has NOT evolved in DP066

The Staraptor in DP066 turns out to be Reiji's Ej92 12:00, 7 February 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, however it seems that Ash wants Reiji to help him teach his Staravia Brave Bird. Staravia has will evolved someday because each of Ash's flying-types have evolve to its last stage, and there will be no reason for Staravia to be any different. Kikibabygirl28 19:21, 23 July 2008 (UTC)

Real personality? WTF?

"*Staravia has become quite popular for being the first bird Pokémon to have a real personality, having shown quirky and surprising behaviour on more than one occasion."

I erased it. This bird has a personality? I don't think so. Personal opinion doesn't count here. Greysky 00:34, 5 March 2008 (UTC)

Yeah but when Ash said he wasn't going to use Staravia in his gim battle it jumped up with a shocked look and began to cry.

Okay...so Pidgeot's desire to protect the clan isn't a personality??? It's the Θρtιmαtum♏_Talk|Links11:47 29 Jun 2008

Gender

Shouldn't it be listed as "unknown" because it's not 100% confirmed (--<font color=#EED55E>^●</font>[[User:GT4GTR|<font color=#4F506D>'''GT4GTR'''</font>]] <small>[[User talk:GT4GTR|<font color=#D6282C>''/ talk /''</font>]]</small> 11:40, 9 April 2008 (UTC))

Yes it should...Crystal Lucario 12:03, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

But Staravia have gander differences, therefore we can assume it's gender. Big Spot = Male; Little Spot = Female... TESHIGIGAS 13:08, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

i concur! KPF 18:39, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Well, if we took the gender differences into account, then it's safe to say that Dawn's Pachirisu is male. The gender differences on Pachirisu is on the head stripes, and Dawn's Pachirisu's stripes are consistent with those of male Pachirisu.

Of course, this would probably anger the fans who believe the outfits Dawn's Pachirisu wore in DP061 is clear proof of it being female. As far as we know, that outfit is Dawn's preference, not Pachirisu's. --Shiningpikablu252 20:15, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

Well the maid outfits weren't Ash, Turtwig, and Pikachu's preferences... They seemed pretty embarrassed. TTEchidna 21:12, 9 April 2008 (UTC)

In dp03 ash says "this is Starly, he helped me find you".--Davidaipom 11:40, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

That's in the dub. I can NEVER understand why in the original, -kun can mean either gender...It's the Θρtιmαtum♏_Talk|Links11:49 29 Jun 2008

I am currently watching When Pokémon Worlds Collide. n the scene where Ash and Pikachu clib through the wreckage, aipom dances with pikachu and ash says:

"This Is Starly, He's My New Pokémon" I 100% sure becuase I thought this the last time i seen it.--Davidaipom 13:47, 26 August 2008 (UTC)

Regarding the most recent Episode, DP103, Staravia like falls in love with a robot Staravia that is undoubtedly female seeing how it has a bow in it's hair. Is this not sufficient enough to claim it male?

A bow is definatly mot enough information. ^Maverick_Nate 23:45, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

True, but its trainer saying its gender is un-deniable proof. ^Chocolate 23:46, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Not really, since most characters refer to their Pokémon as a "he". Notably Ash with about 90 percent of his. --^Psychic_Rider^☮ 23:47, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

But that was in the dub only. It was never stated in the original. Similar to Buneary. Therefore we need a disclaimer. And they don't say "he" 90% of the time. They say "it" mostly.--ケンジのガール 23:49, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Except, I just checked it. Ash says nothing about gender or anything that implies it: "Pikachu, you're okay! Right, you haven't met yet. I want you to meet Starly, who's my very first Pokémon buddy from Sinnoh and who helped me find ya." That has no male inclination what-so-ever. Gender not confirmed. ^Maverick_Nate 23:51, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Well then there ya go. --ケンジのガール 23:58, 20 November 2008 (UTC)

Ok, so with DP103 airing, is it safe to say that Staravia is male?--Boywonder01 08:01, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

It's confirmed as Male (Dub-Only)--デビッド Aipom (Speaks To Me):] 秘密の通信 10:56, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

English VA?

I've been trying to figure out Staravia's english VA for a while now. The only thing known conclusively is that it's the same person who voiced Skarmory in the first Pokemon Mystery Dungeon special. I was the one who said it was Emily Jenness (Dawn's VA), only because of the process of elimination of the main cast; it definately wasn't Kayzie Rogers (Jamie Peacock), and Sarah Natochenny had said she'd only voiced Medicham and baby Kangaskahn. However, when speaking with Jenness through her MySpace, she said she hadn't played Skarmory or Staravia, either. Now recently, the 11th season credits for "Tears for Fears" included additional VAs such as Kayzie Rogers (Wobbuffet/Mime Jr.) and Emily Williams (Jenny/Zoey), even though no other humans besides the main group and Paul were in that episode. This may indicate that Williams was voicing one of the Pokemon, and the only one unaccounted for is Staravia. I don't think either of her normal characters appear in the next episode with Staravia, either, so if she's still there, it may be as good evidence as anything of her involvement. As for why she wasn't credited in season 10, it could be they just didn't bother with crediting Pokemon voices, as it was mostly the main cast and original JPN voices providing them.

Long story short, I think Emily Williams is the only reasonably possible person who could be voicing Staravia. Is it okay if I change it? Shift 00:12, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

Only one problem, William's voice sounds nothing like Staravia's. --☆ケンジガール 00:29, 14 April 2008 (UTC)

I think Michele Knotz might be voicing Staravia because as Starly it sounded like Torchic/Piplup Livinlarge18 21:13, 19 April 2008 (UTC)

Can you ask her who did play Staravia? I know she may not answer, but it's worth a try. --PAK Man ^Talk 15:06, 23 April 2008 (UTC)

Her website still is under construction and I'm not starting a voice 123 profile Livinlarge18 02:36, 16 May 2008 (UTC)

Yeah, I think it's gotta be Knotz; in "Luxray Vision", the voice Jessie put on in the cop disguise seemed ver similar, and had the same kind of warble as Staravia and the Skarmory from the MD special. Whoever edited it in, good on ya! Shift 06:41, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Thanks! Funny thing is, I think I did put its voice actress as Michele Knotz after DP002 aired but someone changed it to Emily Jenness. Turns out I was right. --☆ケンジガール 06:46, 1 June 2008 (UTC)

Actually I put in Michele Knotz let me tell you someone should have never changed it since its voice as Starly sounds similar to Nurse Joy's Chansey,Dawn's Piplup and Torchic Livinlarge18 15:41, 11 June 2008 (UTC)

do this on the trivia

Ash's method of training Starly to learn Aerial Ace is almost the same as when he taught it to Swellow.Lindsayoris15 04:36, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Since when did Ash teach Starly/Staravia Aerial Ace? I'm sure it wasn't in any of the episodes.. I thought it had just learned it w/o teaching. - _spontaneousCombusken 05:02, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

No. He was teaching it how to do in in DP013. --☆ケンジガール 05:05, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

I better go rewatch that episode. =/ Edit: I guess it's similar, but then Starly didn't have the rope or the target... Well, it does have a target, but not one to hit. Bleh. I guess you could add that... Why ask here, is the page protected? - _spontaneousCombusken 05:06, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

Just Like to say

Nice new Picture!Its Much Better--Davidaipom 10:59, 31 August 2008 (UTC)

Contradiction

It says in the move list that Gust is "dub only" but in the trivia it says it was also present in the original.--Dman dustin 18:36, 19 November 2008 (UTC)

Final warning

If one more person puts "Male" in the box, it's getting protected. No one said he so it's unconfirmed. The spot on its head changes sizes in different scenes so it's too hard to determine. And the female robot Staravia doesn't mean anything either. --ケンジのガール 22:27, 21 November 2008 (UTC)

Uh, it kinda does, otherwise, Charizard is a lesbian again along with Croagunk. These pages are precedents, if Staravia falling in love with a fairly obviously female Staravia, isn't it safe to call it a him? Aura-Knight 01:05, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Not to mention the dot on the robotic Staravia's head is obviously smaller than Ash's Staravia. --Dman dustin 08:05, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

He's right, watching that scene it is clear as day that Staravia's dot is larger than the robot's. Aura-Knight 19:48, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

Really? Cause it's not clear to me. There dots looked the same. If you notice, Staravia's spot changes throughout the episode. It can't be determined. End of discussion. What if Charizard and Staravia are female? And don't give me "that wouldn't happen in a kids show" crap. Japanese culture is different from ours. Sailor Moon was a children's cartoon, yet it had two lesbian Sailor Soldiers. It could happen, though admittedly, the probability is extremely low. It stays unknown until someone says "he". --ケンジのガール 06:17, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Just pointing out, and i dont know if anime follows game logic, but lets all asume the nice, Christian answer that with "breeding" comes love. Therefore If it falls in love, by game logic, its a member of the opposite gender recieving the love.DCM_{((曲奇饼妖怪Spy on My Edits))}

That may be. But we still have to go with the benefit-of-the-doubt. --ケンジのガール 06:25, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

But has game logic been proven wrong? Has their been a gay or lesbian character proved Gay or Lesbian? Isnt it safe to assume based off the fact that they still havent called a character gay or straight they wont include it, like levels in anime?DCM_{((曲奇饼妖怪Spy on My Edits))}

Sorry to do this but...

Where in those pictures are the dots the same size?--Dman dustin 05:28, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

I guess those pictures prove that Staravia is definately male. Dilophosaurus Rex 12:17, 13 December 2008 (UTC)

Why does everything have to be spelled out via dialouge? Seriously isn't enough that this robot Staravia has a ribbon, and a small dot compared to Ash's Staravia? I mean obviously the animators didn't nilly willy make a female robot Staravia, just to let the audience members assume one way or the other. They did it to definately prove something the correct way. --Dman dustin 05:57, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

That looks more like an artificial Sweet Scent. The Dark Fiddler - Nos hablamos? 20:00, 27 December 2008 (UTC)

..Sorry for posting on an almost 2 months old topic,but maybe it should be put as Male Dub Only,like some of the other Pokemon. People do say Ash called it a "he" in the dub Lovely Rose 01:44, 14 February 2009 (UTC)

Evolution

I was just looking at it and PokeRinger Contests have appeared back in the anime. If I remember right Swellow evolved from Taillow in the last episode and well I was thinking it might be possible that Staravia is going to do the same.
