Redirects

Should redirects from stuff like TM05 (move) be created to this page? TTEchidna 19:59, 30 August 2008 (UTC)

I say Cooltrainer, Super Glitch, TM28, and TM50 should all be moved here and this would be more detailed with learnsets for the 50 TM moves, 5 HM moves, and the last two moes. Gligar 21:04, 30 September 2008 (UTC)
...are there seriously glitch moves for all 50 gen I TMs? I mean, at this point we only seem to have info on a few of them. --((Marton imos)) 00:23, 9 October 2008 (UTC)
yes, and theres even moves for the HMs, and TM51-5. the page will get populated. because, if it doesnt, it will get deleted, and theres a few users (MM) who REALLY dont want to hear that... -- MAGNEDETH 00:26, 9 October 2008 (UTC)

No, no, no, no, no!

Each glitch move deserves its own page! Not one page for ALL glitch moves! That would imply that Bulbapedia considers Glitch Pokémon and their moves to be beneath "official" Pokémon. And I know none of us want to be giving off that message, am I right? - unsigned comment from Missingno. Master (talkcontribs) 19:29, 1 October 2008 (UTC)

Opinion, and, based off what I know about you, biased. Gligar 00:11, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
ME, biased? No, no, no, it's everyone ELSE who's biased. Biased against Glitch Pokémon! Just because a move is only learnable by Glitch Pokémon doesn't make it any less notable than a move learnable by "regular" Pokémon! I don't know where they're getting this whole "glitch moves aren't notable" crap from.... - unsigned comment from Missingno. Master (talkcontribs) 01:19, 2 October 2008 (UTC)
Maybe it's because [they are] moves that appear in only one generation, only learnable by glitches, based off of real things that already have articles, a large amount of them, and the fact that they'd all be stubs. Gligar 18:47, 2 October 2008 (UTC)

Disambig links

Some Glitch Pokémon, ex. PkMn, link to a disambig to Pokémon and PkMn instead of the Glitch Pokémon itself. How can we fix this? PH1R3STRIKE 21:11, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Link it directly. Try [[PkMn (Glitch Pokémon)|PkMn]].--KK llnn 21:13, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
You mean directly in the move infobox? Because that's where I found it. PH1R3STRIKE 21:14, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
Changing the link target if it links to the wrong article, of course. It can be done in many ways, depending on what's the name of the Glitch Pokémon's page: if it has " (Glitch Pokémon)" at the end, it can be linked to with the link template {{gp|(Pokémon's name)}}. Otherwise, if there is no appropriate link template, just use the normal wiki link with alternate text, for example [[pPkMnp|blah my favorite glitch pokémon yo]].

This doesn't, however, work on these template-powered move entry tables. Someone should make a new version of the table templates to make it work fully. UltimateSephiroth (about me · chat · edits) 21:20, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
Maybe we should switch the redirect.--KK llnn 21:22, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
That would work too. I wonder how many people would link to or search for "PkMn (Pokémon)" if they're seeking "Pokémon"... The redirect sure is all wrong. UltimateSephiroth (about me · chat · edits) 21:30, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
While we don't have a new template, maybe we should put something like a link below the infobox indicating that the link to the disambig is incorrect, acting like a replacement for the top one PH1R3STRIKE 21:33, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
it has been fixed.--KK llnn 21:34, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

More of the glitch moves learned by normal Pokémon

Surely there has to be more of the trade-evos that can do this... TTEchidna 05:42, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Gengar's Destiny Bond has no equivalent here. Could someone with access to Red, Blue, and Yellow Versions check that move (trade Lv48 Haunter to Gold, Silver or Crystal, and then back again). The same applies for Machamp's Scary Face, except the level is 43. SnorlaxMonster 12:06, 17 September 2009 (UCT)
