I couldn't think of any better page to bring this up on, so I just thought I'ld say it here; I think that there should be something next to each Pokémon's name at the top of each page that says the correct pronunciation of the Pokémon's name.

001Bulbasaur RG.png Due to special coding in place in the article, the artwork featured on this article will change every year on November 21 and October 15 in celebration of the releases of Gold and Silver in Japan, and Gold and Silver in the United States. This will only affect the artwork shown in the infobox. This changes every year, so when the time comes, here to return to the page and change the display.

DeapSeaScale

Does anybody know the rate of finding a DeepSeaScale on Chinchou? (I'd like to add a section for held items for it) - and at rate the chances for Lanturn/Relicanth/Carvanha/Sharpedo? Snowy 18:11, 22 August 2009 (UTC)Snowy

We're currently finalizing a fancy colored template for that. It's generally 5% (or 50%) for held items in RSEFRLGDPPt(HGSS?), but this can be confirmed on other sites. —darklordtrom 05:33, 23 August 2009 (UTC)

Water Gun error

Found a small error for when Chinchou learns Water Gun in Generation IV. It should be Level 12 instead of Level 13 (Yaminokame 04:32, 22 October 2009 (UTC))

type combination?

No other Pokémon has the same type combo as Chinchou and it's Evo? True, I mean Rotom but thats Electric and then Water?AquaMaster 13:26, 6 January 2012 (UTC)

Pronunciation

I couldn't think of any better page to bring this up on, so I just thought I'ld say it here; I think that there should be something next to each Pokémon's name at the top of each page that says the correct pronunciation of the Pokémon's name. You could find the pronunciation using the anime and Pokédex 3D Pro. Mangaman13 (talk) 12:27, 19 March 2014 (UTC)
