:::I don't think this page should be called 'Hihihiroshi'. I don't care if Rival (B2W2) looks untidy, 'Hihihiroshi' is only a fan name, meaning it shouldn't be called that. I mean, it would be exactly the same if we called Snivy 'Smugleaf' before its English name was officially revealed. Seeing as we never speculate on Bulbapedia, and we never go by rumours or fan-made stuff either, I think the name should be changed to just 'Rival (B2W2)'. Calling the page 'Hihihiroshi' is both ridiculous, as he would never be called that, and unconfirmed too. Please change it to Rival (B2W2).

::::No. As I have already explained above, we have a precedent set for using widely-used fandom names for things with no official name to override its usage. The Smugleaf argument is irrelevant because we always had the official name of "Tsutarja" to override it. <span style="border: 2px dotted #FFBBDD;">[[User:Umeko|<span style="color:#FF99CC;">梅子</span>]][[User talk:Umeko|<span style="color:#FF99CC;"><sup>❀</sup></span>]][[Special:Contributions/Umeko|<span style="color:#FF99CC;"><sub>✿</sub></span>]]</span> 03:27, 18 May 2012 (UTC) | |||

Really?
Really? --Maxim 16:18, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
- Yup. 梅子❀✿ 16:42, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
- I'm not sure if that's a good idea. I think that Rival (BW2) works better for the temporary article name. Also, we're not gonna call the girl character Hana, are we? --Maxim 17:05, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
- We have a precedent set for using fandom names as placeholders when there are no known official names to override it (eg. having Lyra at Soul (game) prior to learning her name was Kotone). The fandom name in this case sounds rather silly, yes, but that doesn't change the fact that it has indeed become the fandom's name for this character. It's not like we're presenting it as the actual official name, and imo it doesn't look as sloppy as something like Rival (B2W2) would. 梅子❀✿ 17:18, 17 April 2012 (UTC)
