Does the following make no sense to anyone else?
 
*Since Pokémon Platinum switched up the order of the Gyms encountered, Crasher Wake is technically the fourth Gym Leader in the anime to be challenged by Ash out of sequence with the games, though Ash encountered him in the correct sequence according to Pokémon Diamond and Pearl.
 
Um... games? There are only three games (Diamond, Pearl and Platinum). Ash is using D&P order. How does Platinum having it's own order suddenly make Ash "out of order in the games"? [[User:Cassius335|- Cassius335]] 16:05, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
:Games is in the general sense. Out of all the Pokémon games to have been released, Crasher Wake is the fourth gym leader to be battled out of order. According to Platinum, Ash is not following the usual order, but not if we are considering Diamond and Pearl.

:: ''Why'' would Ash be in Platinum order? Platinum only just came out. The anime has been follwing the Diamond and Pearl order; Platinum having it's own order shouldn't invalidate that.

Besides, in D/P, Roark doesn't even OWN a Rampardos (yes, he owns Cranidos, but that's not the same thing.), which is closer to the example I'm trying to get at. Besides, it still counts anyways. Don't you get it? He's doing it in Gen IV order (which includes Diamond, Pearl, and, yes, even Platinum), and it does, technically, count as out-of-order, regardless of whether Platinum came out before or after. [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 17:31, 26 October 2008 (UTC)
Wrong. There is no "Gen IV order". Not anymore, anyway. Gen IV now has two orders: D&P order and Platinum order. And D&P order is the one that counts, because that's been "Gen IV order" up until Platinum came out and decided to be different. [[User:Cassius335|- Cassius335]] 17:40, 26 October 2008 (UTC)

Is there a specific reason why kanji is used over hiragana? (仮面 vs かめん) For example, is it shown that way in other media (anime, magazines, merchandise, etc) besides the games? I suppose it doesn't really matter all that much in the end, but I just thought it would be odd considering that it would be hiragana in-game. [[User:Tina|platinatina]] 00:57, 5 June 2012 (UTC)

== New Info? ==
 
I have a observation regarding the moves of Crasher Wake's Pokemon on Platinum. Through using several different parties of trying to beat Wake, I've seen his Gyarados use, not four moves, but five different moves. These moves were: Brine, Waterfall, Bite, Twister, AND THRASH. I'm assuming this happens with other important characters' Pokemon too. Has any other individual seen this happen? How could we edit this to make it more accurate? (I made this account specifically for this, and I assume you can only put 4 moves in for editing a Pokemon's moves.)--[[User:Totojolt|Totojolt]] ([[User talk:Totojolt|talk]]) 00:25, 27 January 2013 (UTC)

My Internet security program, McAfee Security, gives a "Page displays risky behavior" warning whenever I attempt to view the Crasher Wake page, and basically does its best to dissuade me from viewing it at all, because it believes the page is unsafe.  This is because of the word "Crash" in the title.  Silly, I know, but I'm probably not the only person who's come across this nuisance.  It may be worth considering changing the name of the page before somebody decides to report Bulbapedia as a malware site.

Even if his shortened name in the US is Wake, is his full name still "Crasher Wake", in the same way "Maximum Mask" is shortened to "Maxi" in Japanese? --Zeta 16:57, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Well, it's what he's almost always referred to (and before we knew Wake, it was at Maxi, right? Not "Maximum Kamen" or anything).--Loveはドコ? 17:07, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

Well yes, but my point is we generally list character articles under their full names. IE Steven Stone instead of "Steven". --Zeta 16:43, 23 April 2007 (UTC)

Not just that, it says on the Gym's sign and in other places Crasher Wake instead of Wake. --TTEchidna 06:54, 24 April 2007 (UTC)
Agreed. Crasher Wake it is. - 振霖T 08:28, 24 April 2007 (UTC)

Anime pic redo

Could we get a better anime pic that doesn't look all weird. All the other gym leaders in Sinnoh have better face pictures. --Ricco 17:41, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

We could get one that shows his relative height to the others. --FabuVinny |Talk Page| 18:50, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Something about the Trivia bit

I don't get the part which says that Crasher Wake was the first Gym Leader he battled and won without any of his Pokémon fainting. Is this trivia for Sinnoh only? If it's not, then we should consider Ash's battle against Wattson. JirachiWishmaker0802 18:56 08 August 2008 (UTC)

That really didn't count because Pikachu was all powered up thanks to that robotic Raikou. He didn't win fairly. Wattson just let him get away with it because he inspired him to be a Gym leader again. --ケンジガール 11:10, 8 August 2008 (UTC)
