Glaciate

Kyurem actually did use Glaciate. On here, it says Glaciate is a more powerful version of Icy Wind. Kyurem blew a wind at Ash before he attacked with Dragon Pulse. I believe the blast of wind was Glaciate. - unsigned comment from Yveltal-Lugia (talk • contribs)

Brawly's Hariyama's gender

This has been bugging me for a while. Was Hariyama's gender confirmed to be male officially in Pokémon Adventures? I saw it placed on its own article and on Brawly's page before it disappeared/got removed. Not saying that you did it or anything, I was just asking you as you may know about this.

BW090 ENG dub and Jessie's Wobbuffet's gender

They didn't feature the Who's That Pokémon? segment in the English dub for an unknown reason. I know Garchomp was chose to this one, just like in Japan, but I can't edit it until they show it again in future airings. It's Garchomp for sure! Even if they show it again, I swear it'll be a Garchomp. And Jessie's Wobbuffet is a male, I discovered its gender, it doesn't wearing a lipstick on its mouth. Pikachu65 14:40, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

That doesn't confirm anything. Wobbuffet existed before Gender differences. Ataro (talk) 14:57, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Right. It does make sense. Pikachu65 15:43, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

Trivia on Giga Drain

Why isn't the fact that Paul is the only one who has commanded the use of Giga Drain notable in Paul's page or the Giga Drain page? I am Mikoro (wanna talk?) 13:23, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

Because it isn't notable at all. Pointing out that only one person's Pokemon has used a move is unnecessary. He's not even the only one to do that. Nurse Joy's the only Trainer with a Pokemon to use Minimize, but it's not on the trivia. Ataro (talk) 13:30, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

I don't see the point in not putting it. I agree, it's not vitally important, but it is a fact and deserves to be known by others. Until you give me a good enough reason why it should not be included, I will not drop the subject. That includes Nurse Joy's using Minimize. I am Mikoro (wanna talk?) 14:45, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

It's redundant. There is no point stating in the trivia section information which becomes obvious when looking at the list of Pokémon that have used the move in the anime. If we allowed this kind of trivia, the trivia sections would be twice as long as the rest of the article and no-one would read them because of that. Werdnae (talk) 18:37, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

I guess that makes sense..... I had never seen that list before anyway. And Ataro, you could have just told me that instead. I am Mikoro (wanna talk?) 19:17, 6 December 2012 (UTC)

Minor request

Hey Ataro, I saw from your tags that you're a Pokémon Colosseum/Pokémon XD/Generation III/Generation IV/Generation V player. I would like to request something relevant to the Poké Transfer page... currently, the location data for Pokémon from Orre is empty... I'm pretty sure it's "a faraway place" as seen in Pal Park, but could you confirm that this is also the case for Poké Transfer? Thanks in advance!! ^ht 14 16:17, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Correction: "distant land". I'm thinking of something else. ^ht 14 16:19, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Sorry... one final thing. I'm also curious about how Nature Power and Camouflage would work in Pokémon XD and Colosseum... and I might have more questions later but seriously, thanks so much!! ^ht 14 16:28, 18 January 2013 (UTC)

Volume 15 cover

Okay I really don't want to get into any arguments, and especially no edit wars. Why did you delete the picture I uploaded onto the Volume 15 page? That's the recently released Volume 15 cover from Viz and this site uses Viz's cover for the page pictures over all others. Arceus101 (talk) 02:29, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Because I already uploaded that pic two days ago. It may not look like here on the Pedia, but that's because it takes a while for it to change here. Check on the Archives to see it. Ataro (talk) 02:33, 25 January 2013 (UTC)

Al and Harry controversy

Okay let's not get into any edit wars here and try to solve this out (I was confused too when I saw what I did). The ponytail guy serves under Koga because he uses poison-types in Yellow and GSC chapter and he captured Articuno for Koga to use. The non-ponytail guy uses psychic types in Yellow and GSC and he controlled Moltres which was Sabrina's bird. The thing that confused me and it looks like it's confusing you too is how ponytail seems to be controlling Girafarig in GSC. But look again at the Yellow chapter where the Elite trio appeared and look at the flow chart where it depicts those three serving under the gym leaders. Ponytail dude is shown with Koga and the other dude is shown with Sabrina. I checked with the guys on Serebii forum and we came to the conclusion that the writers made a big mistake by switching Al and Harry between Yellow and GSC and they sorta cleared it up on the official site by not really giving Girafarig a definite owner. Oh and let me point out that your edit on the TRET page makes a contradiction. It lists ponytail guy as having the Pokemon that the non-ponytail guy had in the Moltres chapter. Look closely. Do you see what I'm saying? Arceus101 (talk) 06:00, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Here's the link to the forum topic that I posted a couple months ago. See if it helps you understand what I'm saying. http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?590625-Volume10-Owner-of-Girafarig Arceus101 (talk) 06:05, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Look, I don't know what Kusaka is doing, but what I do know is that this page quite explicitly states that dark hair = Ken, spiky hair = Al, and ponytail = Harry. Same for their original name revealing. Something needs fixing. Ataro (talk) 07:08, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Yes I know that ponytail is Harry and spiky hair is Al. But what I'm saying is that it looks like Kusaka might have switched Al and Harry in the GSC chapter because Al is using poison-types and Harry is using psychic-types. And you're listing Harry's Pokemon in the RBG chapter under Al's profile and vice-versa. Arceus101 (talk) 18:04, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

Pokémon Adventures volume 43

Have you got access to it yet? Basically wondering about those rounds if they are in the same order as ABW01-ABW04 if so we can at least move those four pages I think. --ZestyCactus 18:34, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

Shin's page

I believe this page is ready to be mainspaced. Patty Man 21:00, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

Not with that wall of text, it isn't. Space out the paragraphs first. Ataro (talk) 21:02, 8 February 2013 (UTC)

I wanted you to mainspace the page, since it is under your username, unless permission is given otherwise. Patty Man 03:24, 9 February 2013 (UTC)

Actually, I'll move it. Patty Man 03:24, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

Regarding Ninfia

I think you should also lock the one with the title "Ninfeon" as well, just in-case any fans may create a speculation page on an English name that hasn't officially been announced by The Pokémon Company International.

PS461 - PS464

Hey Ataro, those four rounds have titles that are "VS Whatever" listed as the English title. Where did those titles come from? Like are they from that suspected VIZ Media volume coming soon or what? Just wondering... --ZestyCactus 01:27, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

Well, Chuang Yi doesn't try creating their own titles anymore, do they? Ataro (talk) 02:05, 15 February 2013 (UTC)

? so it's from Chuang Yi? I thought they were only on the Platinum chapter :S --ZestyCactus 21:08, 16 February 2013 (UTC)

I was talking about how they just keep the standard "VS X" instead of trying to come up with their own titles. Ataro (talk) 21:16, 16 February 2013 (UTC)

Okay, that's fine. Just so you know I will be moving the VIZ Media round titles back to the top alongside the "VS. Whatever" titles, since they are from the official English version I would prefer them at the top rather than a trivia line. Let me know if there's any problems, thanks. --ZestyCactus 22:33, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

Well, saying that they're from the VIZ Media translation implies that they used those titles for the volume 43 version, even though they haven't translated that version yet. Wouldn't it make more sense to alter the text so that it says something like "Pokémon Black and White volume 1 version"? Ataro (talk) 22:45, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

tbh that isn't the assumption i would have come to, though i do understand your point now. my concern is that volume 43 being released doesn't suddenly erase the mini-volumes. i'm getting so frustrated trying to make sense of all this u__u first of all, what do you know about this one? is it a volume-sized compilation of the mini-volumes or do you think it's a translation of volume 43? that's another reason i'm hesistant, but no matter what, Chuang Yi is eventually going to get to volume 43 anyway and whatever else and there are differences between the Japanese volume versions and the Japanese magazine versions and and and *brain shorts out* long story short, I'd be comfortable with "Pokémon Black and White volume 1 version" for now since that seems like the middle ground. :P --ZestyCactus 23:13, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

By the way, read over this and let me know if I missed anything. --ZestyCactus 23:21, 17 February 2013 (UTC)

DP185

The image I uploaded for DP185 is not blurry, meets the 4x3 ratio, and is a lot less awkward. Why did you revert it? the great MIKORO (talk to me) 15:20, 24 February 2013 (UTC)

I fail to see how the image is better. 1) The scene looked bad. Gible being attacked by a Gyro Ball? That's not very good. 2) Look at image closer, then you'll see that it's even blurrier than the previous image. Ataro (talk) 00:20, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

You would rather have it stay as a little better quality but a more awkward picture than a little worse quality but a less awkward picture? I think Shuckle being bit in the ass is very weird, but Gible facing an incoming attack is a lot less weird. Look, you're an administrator, I'm not. You make the rules. If you really want the picture to stay so awkward, I have no right to argue. However, I just want to make sure you understand that the one I uploaded bypasses the current one in terms of awkwardness by a long shot. the great MIKORO (talk to me) 15:16, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

Pocket Monsters RS Voume six

My sincere thanks to you for uploading a higher quality image after I edited the page and added a Bad Picture banner at my own dismay. I know I shouldn't complain about low quality images on BP, so thank you for uploading the image. PokefanR (talk) 03:49, 6 March 2013 (UTC)

Ash's Buizel

Well he is the only one of Ash's Sinnoh pokemon that currently is a single-type. Turtwig, Grotle, and Chimchar evolved. Also that Buizel itself as a species cannot evolve into a dual-type pokemon. AeroWind (talk) 09:40, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

It doesn't change the fact that he still owned them at one point. Regardless of their current forms, at one point in their lives, they were single-typed. Ataro (talk) 09:45, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

Subheaders

Do Pokémon in Pokémon Adventures deserve such subheaders such as the ones called FireRed & LeafGreen chapter and Yellow chapter in their articles? Patty Man 00:23, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Can you give an example? Ataro (talk) 00:26, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

I saw on Pika's and Saur's pages that they lack the subheaders under the history section whereas Mewtwo and Deoxys have them under the history section. Patty Man 00:32, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Blasty and Jiggly have the subheaders too. Patty Man 00:39, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Hmm...In the case of Mewtwo, he should probably have it since his telepathy pretty much makes him a "unique" character in his own right, but I think it'd be best to just remove them all. Ataro (talk) 00:50, 15 March 2013 (UTC)

Okay well first of all, considering that you're Lolipiece you should have the sources. Second, I asked a couple people on forums and those were the results I got.

Shrug. I'll talk about it later. Also, no. We always list how many of x Pokemon appear in whatever episode, chapter, movie, etc... Ataro (talk) 18:34, 2 April 2013 (UTC)

Totally different cases. How to identify those five are all related to Genesect Army? Sorry, I could argue that one from Genesect Army and four from unknown places, if I am that so harsh. KyleRGiggs 17:43, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

Also, it's the first time to include more than one same species in one species team. Please be reconsidered. KyleRGiggs 17:46, 4 April 2013 (UTC)

PMD4 Dungeon List

Please explain why you undid the list I made on that page? I think that the list adds nicely to the page and might be helpful to some people.

Prevalent use of unaccented e's

Sorry about not talking to you about this earlier, I was preoccupied when trying to regain my userspace rights and upload images on the archives. But now that I have some time, I have noticed that you have not been using accented e's when spelling things like Pokémon or Pokéball. It is clearly stated that spelling "Pokémon" or anything else that has one or more accented e's with unaccented e's is against the rules. I have warned you about this before but you did not listen. In the future, please remember to use accented e's. Thanks. the great MIKORO (talk to me) 14:02, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

...Excuse me? Ataro (talk) 20:13, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

You do not use accented e's when spelling things like Pokémon or Pokéball. Here's an example. When you reverted the image I uploaded for Stephan's Sawk, you spelled "Pokemon" instead of "Pokémon". Anything that has the "Poké" prefix must be spelled with an accented e (é). the great MIKORO (talk to me) 22:29, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

Uh, no. That only applies to editing in articles. In casual conversation—like on talk pages or edit messages—there's nothing wrong with it. Ataro (talk) 22:35, 9 April 2013 (UTC)

BW121 image

I don't want to change the image and possibly step on someone's toes, so I'll ask here: what do you think of

this image

for BW121's image? It has Ghetsis in it, so it still meets the standard set by the current image's initial uploader, but it actually shows the ceremony itself as well. --The Great Butler (talk) 03:28, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

I was actually considering doing that one, too, but I felt the other one felt more epic fitting an Episode N finale. Plus, we can use the other image somewhere else (once it's in png format, that is). Ataro (talk) 04:19, 12 April 2013 (UTC)

Original and Japanese?

I've been working in creating redirects for the Manga chapters of Pokémon Adventures and I've been using the list of rounds to do so. But in the HGSS Chapter list says that the round PS444, who is called "VS Togepi" in the original, is called "VS Dragonite" and several others since Platinum chapter have these Japanese-Original titles even though that japanese are original. But my real doubt is: Should I make redirects for both titles or just the japanese ones that are the same for english?--Igor (talk) 16:51, 2 May 2013 (UTC)

About Let's Join Hands#Ending Animation

May I ask why the references to the global link and PK25 were edited out by you? Thanks. Raykyogrou0 (Talk) 01:55, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

Because there's nothing really indicating it's a Global Link reference. To me, it's clearly to show that they're messaging each other despite being so far away. And what makes you think it's a scene from PK25? Yes, it's a clear reference to it, but not a scene. Ataro (talk) 02:18, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

The fact that it's similar to the background on the global link website? And I never said it was a scene from PK25, it's a still image about PK25. Raykyogrou0 (Talk) 09:55, 3 May 2013 (UTC)

Question regarding merchandise articles

I had been planning to make an article concerning Bandai's D-Arts line of highly-articulated Pokémon collectibles, which would require the uploading of images. Will my account work on the Archives, or do I need to make a separate account? Also, as I am a stickler for image sourcing and licensing, what is the image policy regarding the upload of promotional images? Is there a sourcing template? If not, I intend to list the source of any image I upload in some fashion similar to what I am used to on Wookieepedia, and I would like to know if such sourcing is permissible.

Also, when adding citations and references to articles, as I had not been able to find an example, do you use the {{reflist}} template? Or do you have a different referencing protocol?

In regards to a product article, I had seen various examples, but they were short and vague, with only a few articles going into any sort of specific product detail. What I intend to cover in the article are details concerning product release and distribution, price range, and some details on the figures themselves, mainly the articulation. As I only own one of the figures, the primary example for most of those details will be the Mewtwo figure. Any details concerning the Charizard, Blastoise, and Venusaur figures will be gleaned from product descriptions on Amazon, and through my various sources. Is there a specific format for merchandise articles? SnorlaxMonster said that there was not, and most articles that I've seen follow only a basic format of short description, followed by a gallery.

I wish to double-check this before I begin drafting up the article, as I want to make sure that I am doing it correctly. Thanks. Trak Nar (talk) 19:03, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

I know nothing about merchandise. You're gonna have to ask someone else. And yes, your account will work there. Ataro (talk) 19:59, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

Alright, thanks. I'll check the history of those articles and ask someone from there. Good to know that my account will work on the archives, though. I shall hunt down and double-check the image policy in regards to sourcing... Trak Nar (talk) 20:14, 23 June 2013 (UTC)

Opinion on something

In my copy of the recent release for Ruby and Sapphire, Ruby's Castform is not given a nickname. One shred of evidence is that during the part between listings it is just listed as Castform. This is shown once in that book. Should the change be made on the page for Ruby's team? If you want to wait until the beginning of September when the next book comes out I am willing to wait until then for more evidence to pop up. -Tyler53841 (talk) 00:44, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

Yes, I'm aware of that. No. It stays as Popo (we do this for Blasty, who doesn't have a Viz nickname either). They probably didn't put a nickname because it doesn't really make much sense for it to have one because Ruby was last seen unconscious. Ataro (talk) 00:51, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

Okay. -Tyler53841 (talk) 00:58, 3 July 2013 (UTC)

This is the only place left in the internet where I could work for the Pokémon fandom, what I wanted since I was little.

Maybe it's good for me, now that I'm grown, one less responsibility, so I can go take care of my life. Could you at least don't ruin the pages I created/extended, i. e. Pokédex holder, Blind boy and Variant Pokémon?

Legendaries being genderless

There are several inconsistencies with labeling the anime Legendary Pokémon's genders as unknown as several articles have them listed as genderless so I think that there should be a discussion if their genders should be officially left as unknown. Patty Man 01:32, 14 July 2013 (UTC)

Hi Ataro, like before I have Volume 45 now so here are photos of the subtitles. If you are able to do the kanji for me again that would be awesome thank you ^o^

Also, they f'ed up the round numbering!! Volume 44 is PS465-PS471. But Volume 45 has PS472 numbered as PS471, and onward they're all wrong off by one! At first I thought I had messed up the titles... but nope... looks like they messed up lol. Also sorry for being slow on the scans. I'll have them up for both 44 and 45 sometime soon :) --ZestyCactus 18:50, 16 July 2013 (UTC)

Yeah I think I messed it up. I was in a rush cause time caught up with me and I had to go to work. I double-checked all of them. The ones that are done so far are correct. Here is the rest:

Just curious...

I see you undid my edits regarding a deeper description of the Mega stones. Now here's the thing: did you do that because the in-game description didn't show up, or just because? I'm asking this due to the fact that I actualy wrote the missing parameter, but as I specified after on the talk page, it didn't show up because of the fact that the template is outdated, while asking the staff to update it. So, is it the first option? Or are we done for now? TheOriginalOne 22:15, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

I did it because the games aren't out yet, and it'd be better to wait until they come out. There's not that much info on the Mega Stones right now for it to be needed. Once more info is available, it'll be added back. Ataro (talk) 23:06, 9 August 2013 (UTC)

Lenora's apron presents in BW126 International version

I watched this episode about Oshawott island, and you know what I've discovered? Lenora's apron during the flashback is presented in international version! She's wearing an apron that it shouldn't be here at all in international version. What do you think about this? Pikachu65 19:07, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

Why are you telling me this? I haven't even watched the dub in a while. Ataro (talk) 21:16, 17 August 2013 (UTC)

Just wanted to let you know...

I created a soft redirect for Hood Man; I had permission from Zesty that it was ok. I'm not sure when his identity is revealed, so it'll need to be cleaned up of course, but maybe that could be reflected on his page. ^ht 14 04:09, 21 August 2013 (UTC)

GRT's English titles

I had no idea where those English titles came from tbh, since they're not in the volume. So just now I went and double-checked my old Nintendo Power volumes and it seems like those titles were used in the magazine version (the title pages look different there). Guess that should be mentioned in the articles ^^' --ZestyCactus 01:48, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

Honestly, the way they're written make me even wonder if they're even meant to be titles at all. They look like they're just little quotes and messages just like you would see in a Japanese magazine chapter. Ataro (talk) 01:53, 27 August 2013 (UTC)

Possible error

In the VIZ translation of PS218 while Ruby explains his mix-up between Wally yand Wanda, he says "She looks so much like him. And she wasn't wearing glasses either...". Is this an error? I think it is but I wanted to make sure before adding it as an error. What does the CY/Japanese version say? Արիանո 15:59, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

The pronoun should be "I", not "she". So yes, it is an error. Ataro (talk) 16:34, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

Okay. Could you add in the article? I'm not sure if I'm able to express it in a way that would make sense (as I'm not a native speaker of English). Արիանո 16:47, 4 September 2013 (UTC)

BW episodes DVD

I heard that sometimes, when TV airs BW episodes, some scene includes some animation errors that cannot be corrected. But some of them can be corrected on Japanese DVD releases, like animation errors, glitched, backgrounds and chaacter designs. I'm glad the episode BW116 in international version fixed two errors, and now those two fixed errors are included on Japanese DVD, too. But some of the errors cannot be fixed on Japanese DVD, I don't know why. Any question? 15:02, 24 September 2013 (UTC)

Talk page policy

Blindly removing a message on a talk page because it is in reply to an old comment is not the correct way to follow the talk page policy. The comment made on Talk:Fiery Dance (move) was answering a question on the talk page that was never answered. To quote the talk page policy, replies to talk page comments are perfectly fine when an "old conversation is still relevant". Unanswered questions are one of the many, many ways that keep conversations relevant. Please don't go around removing comments for no good reason again. It's bad practice. ^Maverick _Nate 23:33, 9 November 2013 (UTC)

Moves in the manga

If you're talking about it not being announced in the Japanese version, it was. It was just said in two different word balloons. Ataro (talk) 01:49, 21 November 2013 (UTC)

Suicune's gender

I got Suicune's gender here under the trivia/errors section of the page when I edited Crystal's page, incase you were curious. Something probably tells me that genderless Pokémon in any manga are still genderless even with the male/female pronouns unlike the anime. Patty Man 04:55, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

Ataro, I'm sorry to butt in here, but I saw you revert the edit so I checked in my copy of the manga and read all of PS122 and there was no use of gendered pronouns that I could see regarding Suicune. So unless the pronouns were used in the Japanese version or Chuang Yi's version I'm guessing the trivia is actually wrong (and is an error if anything) --ZestyCactus 04:59, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

In this case then, saying that Suicune's gender is genderless would be speculation unless it was referred to as that at least several times. Patty Man 05:31, 13 January 2014 (UTC)

X (adventures)

Hello! I saw you reverted my edit, and in the summary you asked "What?" The reason for my edit was that when I read that s/he imitated X, I thought it meant that s/he was doing it in a mocking fashion, and therefore I thought that word would be better there.

Took care of the Viz titles from the new Black and White volume that came out. The main reason why I am contacting you is to let you know the pictures for the english covers of Volume 22 and 23 are up on the Internet already along with the picture of volume 16 of Black and White.

Pokemon Adventures conformation

Just a heads up. I confirmed that the first two chapters of the FireRed and LeafGreen chapter will be held back till Volume 23 in the VIZ releases, no surprise there since VIZ has done this many times already.

Released stuff

Is it necessary to add in move information to their articles if the chapter the move was first used in was not released in volume format? For example, in the Calm Mind page, all of the Pokémon listed were using moves that were in volume format and the chapters were listed. Patty Man 00:22, 22 May 2014 (UTC)

Manga Trainer class format

Hey ataro, I'd like to run this by you and Zesty before I continue, but since you seem to edit info on Trainer classes with manga-related info, I'll ask you first. When you get a chance, can you take a look at my sandbox? I was thinking a format like this so the info on the page isn't super redundant. If needed, we could put captions too, but at the very least, I hope this works. Thanks in advance. ^ht 14 03:27, 25 May 2014 (UTC)

Concerning the new reveals

Just a quick note/input about this influx of new information (the Mega-Hoenn starters and whatnot). While yes, the sites that are reporting them first are all other fan sites, the primary source for this information is a pile of scans directly from CoroCoro. Given that, I'd say it's safe to say this information is legitimate, since they're about as a legitimate of a source as the official Pokémon YouTube channel that first revealed ORAS. Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (Talk Contribs) 18:26, 6/7/2014 (UTC)

I know CoroCoro is official. We're waiting to see if these aren't fake scans of CoroCoro. Ataro (talk) 18:44, 7 June 2014 (UTC)

Ah well that's certainly understandable. The thought did not cross my mind. Carry on then. Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (Talk Contribs) 20:03, 6/7/2014 (UTC)

Discussion about Looker's Origin

I wish to discuss the edit that was reversed about Looker's origin. I have already written out my response to this reversal on the Looker talk page, which I will copy and paste here for your convenience

'I wish to bring up this topic on the origin of Looker, as I believe that this theory has quite a few valid points and believed by quite a few people. As I wrote in the edit, Looker shares many qualities to David Tennant's Doctor. They both share a very similar attire, their profile's look almost identical having the same hairstyle and even eye color. They both believe violence is never the best option, and Looker's International Police badge (from the anime) could very easily be Psychic paper. Looker owns a Croagunk, which matches the color of The Doctor's TARDIS. Lastly, David Tennant's Doctor was first shown on Television in 2005, Platinum being released However, that the current 'Character Origin' is still a speculation. So why doesn't this theory, of which I believe I have given enough proof, not allowed to exist on a community-driven board. As the Actual origin has not been announced by any Nintendo/Game Freak official, why can't this theory hold the same weight? So, I am asking any staff member, please re-consider removing this part of the character Origin.'

Also another problem I have is the List of rounds in the fifth chapter of Pokémon Adventures page. Since there had previously been no english titles and that stuff is in invisible code, if I drop it now it would screw up the template.

Discussion for the future evolution

Well, it is a dilemma for the move of Ash's Fletchinder. IMO, the early move is an actual wrong decision for the readers who did not watch the movie. Despite this scenario would unlikely happened, it must be prevented again. Raymond 10:06, 21 July 2014 (UTC)

Heads up

Now that the final round for Black and White has been confirmed and after observing the remaining rounds after this month's release it looks like by continuing the three chapter format then the February release aka Volume 20 will be the final mini-volume. With only 9 rounds left it is fairly obvious, but I won't add this in right now to avoid any speculation but at this point it wouldn't matter or not. -Tyler53841 (talk) 00:41, 6 August 2014 (UTC)

Pangoro's Scrappy in XY011

I originally thought it was a mistake when I first saw The Bamboozling Forest! because under normal circumstances, Hammer Arm would have had no effect on Pumpkaboo. When I checked Pangoro's Abilities, I noticed that it had Scrappy as its Hidden Ability, which meant that this bit wasn't a mistake after all. Since it didn't show any traits that would have suggested that its Ability might have been Iron Fist or Mold Breaker, I figured that that particular Pangoro had Scrappy as its Ability. When I asked on the episode's talk page when it first aired if Scrappy being used for the first time in the anime was trivia worthy, no one even bothered to answer it. Since no one said no within the time given, I assumed it was alright to put it up. --PKMNAdventurer (talk) 20:41, 8 January 2015 (UTC)

Hoopa's height

Pokemon Adventures question

For the final Black and White Chapter (PS524) that was released in today's volume the chapter only goes as far as when N is leaving the Pokémon League before it ends.

Ash's Hawlucha

How is it unfair? Just because the show isn't over doesn't ignore the fact that Ash's Hawlucha hasn't learned a new move ever since joining Ash's party. Since joining Ash's party, Frogadier used Bubble and Pound, and learned Double Team, Cut, and Aerial Ace, Fletchinder used Steel Wing and learned Flame Charge, and Sliggoo learned Dragon Breath. Hawlucha, however, is the only one that Ash caught in Kalos that hasn't learned any new moves.

Gengar

Hi Ataro, can you help me with something, you see I'm a bit confused as to the Gengar that protected X in last month's Pokemon Adventures chapter, was it wild or trainer owned? Animaltamer703:15, 20 April 2015 (UTC)

Trivia on the XY series page

I just wanted to clarify that when I added the trivia about the XY series not giving Ash a recurring designated rival, that was a continuation of similarities between the XY and AG series, so the whole point is that those are the only two series in which that happens. AGGRON989 02:30, 29 April 2015 (UTC)

Kirika and Karen (XY073)

I noticed that you just changed "Kirika" and "Karen" on the Furisode Girl page to their English names in the games, "Kali" and "Katherine". This has been a point of minor contention on the XY073 page as well; there, Dennou Zenshi has said that their currently known English names should be used, but Blazingfist later disagreed, bringing up a couple of cases where Trainers' names have gotten changed.

If I may, I think staff may need to discuss this a bit amongst themselves and determine for certain how they want to handle cases like this. Then someone can edit Furisode Girl or XY073 (depending on the decision) so that they both use the same names. Tiddlywinks (talk) 23:57, 14 May 2015 (UTC)

Abilities in the manga

Hi. Regarding rev. 2286096 of PS193, why do we not include this information for manga? It is editorially inconsistent to discuss ability information for relevant anime episodes but not for an individual manga chapter. If anything, Bulbapedia:Manual_of_style/Manga seems to imply that such information should be included, as it is in relevant anime articles. SerasOkido (talk) 11:39, 25 May 2015 (UTC)

Chuchu using Fly

The move Fly keeps getting added to Chuchu's page even though it was removed before twice. Chuchu's Fly wasn't confirmed to be the move but an action depicting flying on balloons. Patty Man 02:33, 19 June 2015 (UTC)

Note

Just a heads up, the VIZ title for PS518 which was "Cold Hard Truth" in the mini-volumes, has been renamed as "True Friends" in the regular volumes. I already updated that page and any other important relevant page but I thought to also let you know at least. -Tyler53841 (talk) 01:08, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

No problem. Thank you. Ataro (talk) 01:09, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

Uh, quick question. A friend wants to know this. In the original Japanese version of volume 29, Archie mentions Team Galactic as he's about to disappear, but is cut off before finishing the name. In the Chaung Yi translation, he only says "it was..." before disappearing. My friend wants to know if he does state Team Galactic's name in the VIZ version. Ataro (talk) 01:13, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

From what I can tell so far all he say is "the real" as in the real armor. Also if you want check out the special notes I did regarding the title change on the List of rounds page for Black and White and mini-volume 18 if you want. While I mainly did it to help deal with potential confusion on the title change, if you can think of better wording, then go ahead and update it. -Tyler53841 (talk) 01:40, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

Dr Footstep

Do you have access to the VIZ translation of PS361? Dr. Footstep has two names: Futomaki and Dr. Footstep; the distinction is made in the Japanese games, the Japanese PS361, and in CY PS361. If you do have access, it would be good to see how that was handled by VIZ Media. --Abcboy (talk) 11:57, 10 August 2015 (UTC)

Y (adventures)

Why did you move Vuvui and Saisai's section around? Not that I mind or anything, just asking why.-- --Handmaiden 101 (tAlk) 19:32, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

Order of capture. Y didn't officially own Rhyhorn until last month's chapter. Ataro (talk) 21:09, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

Gotcha. BTW, will there be an article of Vuivui anytime soon? I definitely know that Croaky (meh, the name's good enough) and Fletchy will get one, but what about Vuivui?-- --Handmaiden 101 (tAlk) 22:22, 5 September 2015 (UTC)

Only Pokemon that get significant amount of focus get articles. Since starters always get tons of focus, Croaky will most definitely be getting one. Fletchy is a maybe. Vuivui, highly unlikely. Ataro (talk) 12:31, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

On another note the summary at the top of that Pokémon section for Y's Pokémon needs an update (now that KeroKero has been changed to Croaky), preferably a delicate one to avoid making it too long. You might have a better chance at it which is why I want to ask you about. -Tyler53841 (talk) 14:54, 6 September 2015 (UTC)

Heads up

Managed to get my copy of the final Pokémon Adventures Black and White volume a day early and not only found more titles to changed (with many having been rearranged to different chapters), but also more importantly PS519 now shares the same English title as PS517. -Tyler53841 (talk) 04:36, 6 October 2015 (UTC)

XY&Z/DreamDream similarity

I only reincluded the trivia on XY&Z that was comparing it with DreamDream because it was showing a similarity between the two. You previously said it was an incredibly detailed comparison for something that's mostly just a coincidence when the similarity is all one can see in the first two seconds of each video. Plus, the trivia wasn't erased from DreamDream's page. That's why I put it back. If you think it shouldn't belong at all, then I understand. If you want, feel free to erase the same trivia on DreamDream's page. --PKMNAdventurer (talk) 15:20, 10 January 2016 (UTC)

New template

Hi, how are you? :)

I've been working on this new template since yesterday, and I've finnally come with something that pleases me. How can I create it in order to start using it? Thanks MannedTooth (talk) 20:20, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

I don't think that's necessary, for one in the early chapters (Red,Blue & Green, Yellow, Gold, Silver & Crystal) had some unknown pokemon that are seen. Another thing is that the Adventures Manga is not like the anime. An example of this would be where a main character's pokemon is listed in the debut section, but the species itself already appeared before said episode, along with a movie or in series debut.

Quotes from manga

Hey! :) I saw that you just created a page with quotes in it. That's my favorite part! :P If you,ve been around lately, you may have noticed that I go and correct quotes as I play my games.

I was wondering if we could also quote manga characters ? Like, I would get my mangas out and start quoting Red's and all his friends on their respectives pages if you want me to.

^~^ MannedTooth (talk) 00:34, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

No, we don't do those. Ataro (talk) 00:40, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

How are those different than the games? MannedTooth (talk) 00:43, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

A manga is a comic book, which is literally nothing but text and pictures. If we add them like we do the games, then the pages would be ridiculously huge. Ataro (talk) 00:48, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

What about if we make it expendable? Or just another page dedicated to that? MannedTooth (Talk) 00:55, 3 February 2016 (UTC)

Togebo's fly.

Here is the page where he says it.

MannedTooth (Talk) 04:37, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Gold didn't say to use the move fl, he said "let's fly" which is just using Togebo's natural ability as a flying type to fly, not the move fly.Animaltamer705:08, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Well, according to the game, a Pokémon must have the move in order to fly with its Trainer on it, right? MannedTooth (Talk) 05:18, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

The act of flying does not equal the move fly.--Force Fire 05:36, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

It only works in the games, the adventures manga expands it by letting pokemon like a Butterfree or Mantine, both of which cannot learn Fly, to let their trainers fly with them. Animaltamer705:45, 7 February 2016 (UTC)

Manga Templates

Hey! :)

Since you're the head of the manga project, I wanted to ask you if these additions to the mangas rounds could be possible:

Solar Charger

Hi, I am currently compiling translations for the List of Clemont's inventions page for the 52Poké Wiki and was unable to find a Chinese translation in XY031 as I then realised that there was no Japanese name of the invention in that episode in the first place... After flicking through the history of that page, I saw that you were the person who came up with the dub of "Solar Charger", and was wondering which episode did that translation of "Solar Charger" or the original Japanese "ソーラーチャージャー" came from. Thanks. -- Tsanger | 留言 04:37, 11 April 2016 (UTC)

If I remember correctly, the name came from his game concept art. Ataro (talk) 07:24, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

When you say game concept art, do you mean from within the game of XY/ORAS, or something else....? -- Tsanger | 留言 11:14, 12 April 2016 (UTC)

I believe it was released in a book of some sort. Either way, here it is. Ataro (talk) 06:06, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

Thanks for finding it, unfortunately, that means that there is no Chinese translation for the Solar Charger.... However someone else just told me that this was also released in the manga, so I might look into that... Anyways, thanks for all the trouble ^^ -- Tsanger | 留言 07:28, 13 April 2016 (UTC)

Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Chapter English release

[4][5] Viz is going to releasing mini-volumes for the Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire Chapter. Both of the links I am giving you are the release dates for the first two volumes. -Tyler53841 (talk) 16:26, 25 April 2016 (UTC)

Saisai

Should it get an article combined with its anime counterpart (and game counterpart I suppose) since their the same? Once it has more relevance of course, I'm just speaking out on it.-- --Handmaiden 101 (tAlk) 01:34, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

Since XY will most likely be over by this year's end, the chances of it becoming notable enough for an article is incredibly unlikely. Ataro (talk) 21:57, 5 May 2016 (UTC)

Image removals and Poison Sting

1) You've removed a couple of manga move pictures I uploaded. I admit, the quality's not too good, but that's because that is the best quality available as of this time. Couldn't you be a bit more forgiving? We'll get better ones eventually. 2) You removed the fact about Guile Hideout's Surskit using Poison Sting, as if it was untrue. But it IS true, it is very clearly stated in the official VIZ Media translation, so what's your reasoning? --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 04:29, 17 May 2016 (UTC) PS. I haven't dropped the issue about Hugh's Purrloin yet either, but that'll wait for now.

While I understand your complaints, it's the rules. I've seen too many ugly non-scanned images uploaded here. Heck, I also uploaded some in the past. But in the end I'd much rather have no image than a terrible one. Either way, it was decided that we are not to upload any images that aren't scanned. Also, I checked the RAWs, Emerald said it was Poison Sting. But which chapter did Guile confirm it was his Surskit that used it? If I can confirm it, then I'll revert the edits and put the image back. Ataro (talk) 05:20, 17 May 2016 (UTC)

1) Okay, I understand. 2) I think that in the flashback seen in Susceptible to Sceptile, we can see Sceptile being hit by the same move, and Surskit is the only Pokémon Guile had out at the moment. Is that good enough evidence? --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 06:59, 17 May 2016 (UTC)

Hey, I was just looking through the pages of Silver and Green and noticed Green's Granbull is referred as male on her page and female on Silver's.

Saisai English name

Y's Saisai has been nicknamed Rhyrhy in the English version (only seen as Rhy-Rhy in the volume, but not known if it is due to the positioning of the word because of abbreviation). -Tyler53841 (talk) 22:40, 5 July 2016 (UTC)

Is it because the name couldn't fit without going past the speech bubble? If so, then let's go with the former just to be safe. Ataro (talk) 22:54, 5 July 2016 (UTC)

Yup, because of the speech bubble, so let's be safe until a later volume comes out for conformation only because it took place near the end of this volume. -Tyler53841 (talk) 22:55, 5 July 2016 (UTC)

Looks like the opening sentence for the Pokémon section on Y's page needs to be updated again as this new nickname does not have the "E" sound in it. -Tyler53841 (talk) 23:13, 5 July 2016 (UTC)

Just a heads up

Since you have been handling the latest manga chapters, I think when you have the time you should update the Timeline of events in Pokémon Adventures‎ only because you have more direct experience. I did at least take care of the latest material from the english version, the chapter titles and nicknames, but the newest chapters from both X & Y, as well as Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire still need some work. -Tyler53841 (talk) 04:32, 25 July 2016 (UTC)

The english name has been identified as "Kirly".

Here is the link to verify this: [6]. -Tyler53841 (talk) 00:01, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

The only thing that is left to do is for you to move the images on the archives and then update the pages on this site that are connected to thm (even if I wanted to, I can't move those images as there as I am not an image uploader and those images are blocked anyway for me). -Tyler53841 (talk) 13:45, 7 September 2016 (UTC)

Alright, first of all, you're not my messenger. This is my talk page, and I'd like it if you let me do the replying. Secondly, as I stated before, unless it's stated in the chapter itself, assume Coronis is assuming a move. He only does this on rare occasions, though. Ataro (talk) 15:32, 24 October 2016 (UTC)

PG09 issues

Okay, why doesn't the fact that only male player characters are featured in Pokémon Generations convince you that the Trainer in this episode is Brendan? Because if you're talking about Red's Bulbasaur in PG01, the thing is, as I keep trying to tell people, the first episode isn't canon with the other episodes! It was just an opening for the series, not anything that has anything to do with the events in the other episodes. Oy. So it shouldn't be used as a counterargument in this episode's debate of who the Trainer in the Magma Suit is. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 17:45, 28 October 2016 (UTC) PS. I know this message may not help my case at all, but I'm just pleading for obvious stuff to be recognized.

Because I feel it's not fair. While yes, the other episodes did feature the male protagonist, they also at least showed the Trainer's face, albeit partially (except for Brendan, but you'd have to freeze the video). This one? Nothing. The suit's helmet was completely blacked out. I like to believe it's Brendan in there, too, but I feel that them not showing the Trainer's face kind of makes it hard to determine who is in there. The lack of any pronouns used for the Trainer doesn't help either. I just think we shouldn't assume. Ataro (talk) 18:22, 28 October 2016 (UTC)

Xerxer

Since you have the information I was wondering where Xerxer should be categorized since it does not seem to be on hand anymore.--Rahl (talk) 21:03, 2 November 2016 (UTC)

X's Moves

I apologize in advance if I got the information wrong but I am pretty sure X's Pokémon used Flare Blitz, Thunder, and Dark Pulse. Why did you remove the information on the pages?--Rahl (talk) 19:08, 3 December 2016 (UTC)

Because, if you read the chapter, you would know that what you added did not actually happen. Yes, X called out the moves, and yes, they attacked. But what you wrote was not what happened. At all. There was a scene of the Pokemon attacking, but Garma did not shoot out anything, Elec did not summon any lightning, and Salame was not covered in flames. Stop adding moves unless they are seen on panel. And stop copy pasting when moves are rarely ever consistent between uses. I've warned you about these things before and your repeated failure to listen to my warnings have gotten on my last nerve. Ataro (talk) 15:12, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

I'm sorry about that I didn't mean to misrepresent information. I will be more careful about moves that were called out.--Rahl (talk) 15:24, 4 December 2016 (UTC)

Input needed

It looks like Viz is taking a similar approach to the titles of the the Japanese version for the Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire chapter. While the Japanese version referred to this as "Episodes" the Viz version referred to them as Omega Alpha Adventure Adventure with the appropriate number after them (my suspicions were confirmed when I got Vol. 2 just now). While I don't intend to go too far ahead on this as I prefer to wait for the volumes to come out to confirm, what do you think? -Tyler53841 (talk) 01:22, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

We do not assume titles, so leave them as is until the volumes come out. Ataro (talk) 01:37, 7 December 2016 (UTC)

Difference in Japanese text-characters for Sun/Moon's "Mizuki" versus other "Mizuki" characters?

Hello. Regarding this change, shouldn't the Japanese name of Mizuki (also known as Moon/Selene from Pokémon Sun and Moon) be distinguished from the Mizukis of Sinnoh and the Pokémon anime? I thought that "ミヅキ" (Japanese name for SM Mizuki) was different from "ミズキ" (Japanese name for the other Mizukis), particularly due to the second text-character of each word (ヅ versus ズ)...? I figured there may be slight confusion since the Japanese rendering of SM Mizuki's name deviates from the Japanese rendering used for the disambiguating page's "Mizuki" name, but I'm not sure whether it matters much since I am not versed with Japanese on an advanced level.. Thanks in advance for clarifying. Fenyx4 (talk) 20:32, 6 February 2017 (UTC)

Participation in the Pokémon Pancake Race

Hello. I was wondering why you reverted my edits on Ash's Pikachu and the other protagonists's Pokémon pages regarding their participation in the Pokémon Pancake Race. I thought participating in a Pokémon competition would be notable, since such sections have been written on other Pokémon pages as well. Satsjoe (talk) 15:32, 8 February 2017 (UTC)

I honestly have no idea why those are included. Presumably before that rule was added? Either way, it's still irrelevant to the plot of the show, so we should avoid adding them unless it's truly important. Ataro (talk) 22:51, 8 February 2017 (UTC)

Fair enough, thanks for your response. Satsjoe (talk) 22:58, 8 February 2017 (UTC)

Type: Null

Even if "anti-UB Fighting" is the wording used in game, I think it's confusing. It sounds like it's against fighting UB's, even though the project is named "Beast Killer", and the capitalization on Fighting makes no sense. --Celad onkey 20:58, 22 February 2017 (UTC)

I agree. Biology sections paraphrase literally everything else; there's no reason for this one to duplicate in-game text verbatim (and without even quotation marks around it to indicate that it's a quote!). Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 05:46, 23 February 2017 (UTC)

With that out of the way, I would like to discuss Weather trio and a possible move to "Super-ancient Pokemon", since you seem to be the most active Editorial Board member. We have been discussing whether to move the page, as "Super-ancient Pokemon" is an official term, rather than "Weather trio" which is a fan term. You made a page called "Super-ancient Pokémon (Adventures)", too, possibly indicating you support it as a term(?). What do you think? --Celad onkey 21:48, 23 March 2017 (UTC)

X and Y

I'd like to apologize for the "as of this chapter" thing I thought it was said there. However I don't understand why you got rid of the picture of X's party. Could you please explain why?--Rahl (talk) 15:35, 25 March 2017 (UTC)

Also while I have your attention I have two more questions. In one of the scans I read it said Mega Manectric used Thunder Fang instead of Thunder. I was wondering which you thought it was. I'm also wondering if you can find the natures and genders for the remaining Pokemon belonging to X and Y as I can not find it anywhere.--Rahl (talk) 15:38, 25 March 2017 (UTC)

There is no official source for the remaining genders or natures. X's Pokemon were only given them once, in the magazine version of PAXY23. And the version where Elec used Thunder was in the magazine version, so it's entirely possible it was changed in the volume version. I don't have the volume to properly compare. Ataro (talk) 15:52, 25 March 2017 (UTC)

Alright thanks. Now to prevent me from messing this up later what was wrong with the cover chapter I put up for PAXY38?--Rahl (talk) 15:54, 25 March 2017 (UTC)

It was clearly used from a scanlation. We do not oppose images from scanlations, but any translation that isn't official must have the text removed. If it can't be removed without ruining the image, it's better to not use it at all. Ataro (talk) 15:58, 25 March 2017 (UTC)

Okay sorry about it. Won't happen again.--Rahl (talk) 15:59, 25 March 2017 (UTC)

Snor

I don't quite understand why you removed Snor's trivia. Every other Pokemon makes mention to how they are owned in other media and it being tied for the highest level out of all 21 pokedex holders seems notable to me. Could you please explain why it should not be there?--Rahl (talk) 19:12, 31 March 2017 (UTC)

I've noticed you have been pretty active today. If possible could you please get back to me on this? Thank you.--Rahl (talk) 21:42, 3 April 2017 (UTC)

You are on right now. Please stop ignoring your talk page.--Rahl (talk) 02:30, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

Editing Userpages w/o permission

As an admin you know better. That proposed Zeller page did not have any kind of permission template on it. Could you please undo your technical userspace violation/vandalism, or do I have to go higher up?--BlisseyandtheAquaJets (talk) 03:07, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

First of all, that rule doesn't apply to admins. Second, even if it didn't, me reverting the edit would bring back the now red links to the images I deleted, and that makes absolutely no sense. Ataro (talk) 03:43, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

Moves

How come you got rid of moves for manga Pokemon like Flare Blitz or Calm Mind? Reinhartmax (talk) 16:05, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

Because if you cannot actually see the move being used, it shouldn't be noted. Ataro (talk) 16:09, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

Shouldn't it then be noted that they have the move, but it wasn't used on panel. Reinhartmax (talk) 16:16, 5 April 2017 (UTC)

Megaree

As of the most recent chapter Meganium was shown to be female so why did you change it? The manga has retconed things before, like levels and natures so it should reflect the most current information.--Pikablu (talk) 15:01, 26 April 2017 (UTC)

Because that's not true in the slightest. I'm assuming you read the scanlated version, which states that Megaree is female. However, that is a mistake; the Japanese version still lists him as male. Next time, try reading from an official source, which is far less likely to make mistakes like this. Ataro (talk) 00:08, 27 April 2017 (UTC)

Hareta's Luxray

Is the page User:Rahl/Hareta's Luxray ready to be mainspaced?--Rahl (talk) 16:12, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

Sorry, my bad

This is the scanlation I used to change Thunder to Thunder Fang. Sorry, I should've realized that the existing info was based on the original Japanese version and not another scanlation. You'll have to excuse me. I've been having a flu lately and not gotten enough sleep because of it, so my brain has been a bit fuzzy these last couple of days. I know it's not an excuse, but I still hope you'll understand. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 16:13, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

No problem. I'm fully aware of that scanlation, hence why I was wary of whether or not it was completely correct. Either way, I checked with the person who scanlated it, and it was in fact a mistake. Ataro (talk) 16:44, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

flamethrower

hey i don't know if you checked but Smeargle did use Flamethrower. Why are so mad that I'm adding it?--Davikon (talk) 18:40, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

I clearly explained on your talk page as to why what you were doing is wrong. Please read it. Ataro (talk) 18:48, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

Umm no you didn't. All you said was second warning and you're tired of the page being fixed. That doesn't tell me why you think it didn't use flamethrower, becuase you can see that it did in one of the chapters.--Davikon (talk) 19:30, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

"Please be sure that when editing articles related to certain Pokemon manga you do not add a move unless it is explicitly called out by someone. Moves are rarely consistent between uses in Pokespe and it is much preferred that we do not assume, even if the move seems obvious." There it is, Ataro's warning verbatim that still applies for the first and second time. Read it please.--BlisseyandtheAquaJets (talk) 19:58, 8 May 2017 (UTC)

En Z-Move

Should something like "En has performed an unknown Z-Move" or "En has performed an unknown Fire type Z-Move" be added to En's section of Sun's page?--Rahl (talk) 12:43, 25 May 2017 (UTC)

Volume 53

Now that Japan's release date has been confirmed I am sure a more stable English release date should be announced. Because I bought the volume on Amazon, they will send me an e-mail when the information is confirmed. Anyway have a nice day. -Tyler53841 (talk) 23:56, 26 May 2017 (UTC)

Bruxish

Did Bruxish use Screech in today's episode? It looked like it when Ash and the gang covered their ears from it. Seabiscuit2020 (talk) 17:37, 22 January 2017 (UTC)

Bulba Handbook

Do you know where Bulba Handbook gets their information? I know for sure that not all of it's from Bulbapedia, because some stuff on Bulba Handbook isn't on Bulbapedia. If you don't know, who should I ask? sumwun (talk) 14:56, 24 June 2017 (UTC)

Raising a concern with the Editorial Board

Hello there. I'm concerned about the behavior of the user Marshtompert, who's been exhibiting some disruptive behaviors that closely resemble those of Spyspotter, who has a long record of sockpuppeting to attempt to sidestep their permaban.

I raised these concerns in some detail on Kogoro's talk page two weeks ago, but Kogoro does not seem to be coming back online anytime soon. (In addition to the concerns I raised at that time, in the meantime, Marshtompert has further targeted at least one page that has been almost entirely dormant since Spyspotter last edited it. They've also refused to explain their actions after being confronted by Force Fire.)

Since you appear to be the most active Editorial Board member lately, I hoped you might see this and be able to do whatever it is the EB does to detect whether a user is a sockpuppet or not. Thanks for hearing me out, and I await your response. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 19:05, 26 July 2017 (UTC)
