So how come Image:057 is different than the DPPt images, specifically the nose...KPF 16:46, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Judging by the trivia, Image:057 IS its Platinum sprite, and nobody put it in the spritebox yet. - unsigned comment from Missingno. Master (talk • contribs)

Hm, odd that they had to make the nose bigger, but alright, just checking...KPF 16:51, 10 January 2009 (UTC)

Are Primeape's movements modeled after Sugar Ray Leonard?

When Primeape uses Earthquake (and some other moves), it winds up one of its arms and does an uppercut, like what Sugar Ray did in his fight with Roberto Duran. Is this a reference? BNK^Talk 01:42, 7 August 2016 (UTC)

Regardless of whether it is or not, we typically try to avoid drawing parallels to real-world people or copyrighted works unless the parallel is explicit, like Tyranitar's Japanese name being a Godzilla reference or the Uri Geller controversy. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 04:47, 7 August 2016 (UTC)
