Sunkern has a new egg move in Earth Power in HGSS. See: [1] This also means that it is a tutor move ONLY IN HGSS. STOP REVERTING MY HARD WORK. Thank you.--Aniny 19:01, 28 September 2009 (UTC)

Sunkern IS catchable in HGSS

Sunkern can be obtainable in HGSS without trading from another game... It's common on Route 24, common in the National Park, and common in the Safari Zone. - unsigned comment from Fiyero49 (talkcontribs)

When nothing is entered in the location information, it says "trade" by default. The page is protected right now, but an admin can add that whenever one of them has a spare moment. Thanks for posting the info! :D ZestyCactus 03:15, 23 October 2009 (UTC)

"Nuts"

It bothers me how the Name Origin section states that the Japanese name of this Pokemon comes from the English word "nuts". What does Sunkern have to do with nuts, really? The fact that official Romaji is Himanuts doesn't really signify anything. The official romajis are often Engrish and ignore the intended meaning, like Prasle, Dirteng or Dogohmb (or, recent example Zorua, which comes from the word "zorro", not "zorruo" or something). We shouldn't blindly follow them. I would personally tie the "nattsu" part to the Japanese word "natsu", summer. --Maxim 16:42, 4 May 2010 (UTC)
