Talk:Magby (Pokémon)

Buby or Booby?

Isn't the Japanese name Booby, like the bird? I thought that is goes by the same trend as its evolutions - boo, not bu. But it looks like Bulbapedia has used Buby since the beginning. Is it just because people are afraid of using a term, with a completely proper and correct meaning, simply because of slang?

Or is there some official product that uses romaji saying "Buby"? I was under the assumption that the official stuff said "Booby". Satosuke 21:57, 6 October 2008 (UTC)

Availability in HeartGold/SoulSilver

Magby (along with several others) can actually be obtained in these games through mini-games on the PokeWalker which comes with them. They are then transferred to the actual game wirelessly from the PokeWalker, not traded, although they can be given as gifts instead to other copies of HeartGold or SoulSilver. Also, they can be obtained by breeding Magmar. --MarkoOhNo 22:11, 28 September 2009 (UTC)
