At the infobox, however, the old image of Serena standing behind the just-evolved Braixen is still in there.  Today, I was curious and attempted to change the image dimensions.  When I changed the size down to 250 and hit Preview, the new image appeared with no problem.  When I went back to 251 and previewed again, the old image was back.  I went and cleared my cache and then tried reloading the page; the old image was still there.  Is something at the Archives end not working?  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 21:52, 7 June 2015 (UTC)

:...and ironically, Abcboy picked up that it was the wrong width and changed it anyway. LMAO  So problem resolved in this case.  But why was it doing that?  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 23:11, 7 June 2015 (UTC)
::I'm honestly not sure why it was doing that. I want to say that it was probably the cache being fidgety, but I wouldn't be able to explain any further. I can look into it with some of the other more techy staff members and see if we can dig up anything.

:::I'm pretty sure the problem is my end, because Pattyman said that it was showing different pictures on different devices (computer and phone) and later matched on both with the current picture.  So if the thumbnail was correct over there, I must have forgotten or not thought of something over here.  I just don't know what. LOL
:::What makes it confusing is that Internet Explorer (I don't use that, BTW) also brought up the old image.  It was the first time it visited that page.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 04:02, 8 June 2015 (UTC)
== Location preview filenames ==
The current ones don't really distinguish them from the maps. I think they should be renamed to '''<location>_<FRLG>_preview.png''' and '''<location>_<HGSS>_preview_<time_period>.png''' for the sake of consistency. HGSS previews used for both day and evening should reflect this in the filename because people might want to collect the previews for themselves and this would make things more accurate. Also, the Burned Tower previews shouldn't call it Brass Tower. [[User:SatoMew2|SatoMew2]] ([[User talk:SatoMew2|talk]]) 13:10, 8 June 2015 (UTC)

== New Image Project ==
Got ScriesM's permission to use the spritesheet (which I found out later was compiled from single files anyway, LOL) in the Shuffle pages, and possibly Battle Trozei if we confirm they are identical in most cases.  I am aware of <nowiki>{{Template:MSP}}</nowiki> which is called from other templates to pull the generic mini-sprites; I am currently adding transparency to all of my image pulls, and am about ready to run a test of a few of them in a table format in my sandbox (I apologize, there may be some excessive editing in there today, though I'll try not to).  Once that test is complete, I'll be working on getting them all uploaded over the next day or two.
What I'd like to do is have permission (since I think templates need permission) to create a nearly identical template; the only difference will be what images will be called.  I'd like to put it in mainspace right away while I'm uploading the images to be called by it; as soon as the images are in, they will be pulled by the article when I convert the [[List of Pokémon by Pokémon Shuffle list number|Shuffle list]] over to it in one shot (and then new entries will automatically use them).  I'll create the template with the changed filename noted on it; I'm thinking something like "Tile001", since they aren't exclusive to Shuffle and are kinda like if you picked up a game piece from {{wp|Rummicub}} (which have numbers and other game-related elements on them), but other names might work better and I'm open to suggestion.  The test page will involve a userspace version of the template, and once it's confirmed good and working, the template will be ready for mainspace while I work on the images.  You can track what I'm doing in Recent Changes if you want to for approval purposes rather than my updating here as I'll copy the MSP template shortly for a temporary filename structure, which can be made permanent once we decide on a good name format (at which point we can mainspace it).  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 20:16, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
:Just to update, the template page has been created.  Haven't uploaded a few more test images yet, asked Pattyman to help make sure everything's kosher and I'll copy it on the other test ones.  They'll later be renamed with all the others to whatever we decide on.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 21:16, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
== Curious ==
Is the EB going to be looking at [[User:Abcboy/Puerto Blanco|this]] and all of the other pages associated with this soon?  I have them dressed up and ready to go (despite them being Abcboy's space, I created many of them and edited some of the content in a way that only appears on that version, not on the main Shuffle page), and I even have the template set up to match.  I'm kind of holding back on putting the side games data in until I know for sure whether this is going in or not because I don't want to use one version, then have to go back and edit 260 pages again after the change.  Once this is confirmed either way, I can update Shuffle and all of the other side games I've researched.  This is the delay. =)  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 18:22, 24 July 2015 (UTC)
:I've been told that it will be discussed during the August meeting next month. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">--Pokemaster</span>]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">97</span>]]''''' 00:24, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
::Ah.  Bit of a wait.  I guess what I may do for now is get the ones that are not in Shuffle updated.  The rest can wait.  I'll probably just do a set number daily, anyway, so it wouldn't be a one-day update in any case.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 00:48, 25 July 2015 (UTC)
:::Any update yet?  Has the EB met this month?  I'm also noticing a TON of content in the current Escalation Battle (notice the comment I added at [[Pokémon Shuffle]], and that doesn't even include the stage data, only something to try to help identify what stage appears when), so I'm going to probably create a new page just for that under the proposal now.  It's too much for the page it's on right now, even, so having the extra page would let us be completely detailed.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 03:42, 18 August 2015 (UTC)
::::It may be better to speak to an Editorial Board member directly about this, I can only give you second-hand information that they pass along.

== Talonflame's Dex entry ==
I noticed Talonflame had a Dex entry from [[XY085]] in which the episode wasn't dubbed and the source used was Japanese subs. Will it be okay to remove? [[User:Pattyman|<span style="color:orange">Patty</span>]][[User talk:Pattyman|<span style="color:orange">Man</span>]] 05:21, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
:Yeah, you can go ahead and remove it. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">--Pokemaster</span>]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">97</span>]]''''' 05:21, 5 October 2015 (UTC)
== Fire Spin, Thunder and Aqua Jet ==
Can you delete the uses of those in the anime from XY089, since we don't know if those were actually the moves that Flareon, Jolteon and Vaporeon respectively used? The reasons being are the following:
Fire Spin - Just because the Fire type attack that came out of Flareon's mouth and spun around its body, does not mean that it was Fire Spin. Pokemon have used other Fire type moves and made them curve, so why couldn't this be one of those times? Plus, Tierno's Charmeleon used it differently in XY085.
Thunder - The Jolteon in XY089 might not have used Thunder, due to the fact that it know lots of Electric type moves and it could have used an Electric type move (not Thunder) in a stylised way that looks similar to Thunder. And Thunder in the latest games shows a Pokemon shooting lighting from a dark cloud and in XY089, Jolteon shot electricity from its body into the air and then the electricity in the air hits the ground. So I think Jolteon's supposed use of Thunder in XY089 should be deleted, due to no complete confirmation.
Aqua Jet - Vaporeon doesn't know Aqua Jet and wouldn't it be more likely thart Vaporeon could have used a move that it does know. For instance, Surf or Waterfall, both moves that it can learn and moves that could be similar to how Aqua Jet looks in the anime. I mean, we haven't really seen how Waterfall and Surf look like in the anime lately, so it could be one of those moves.

:I'm just replying to acknowledge that I saw this. I'm rather busy at school at the moment since I have midterms this week, but I (or another staff member) will be looking into this and addressing it as soon as possible. My initial thoughts at the moment are if it's not explicitly stated, it's safe to remove. That's pretty much protocol for most situations on the wiki.

Remember this?
Just a small changed but, in the character, shouldn't it be that Ash got over his loss after Ritchie lost as well and talked to him about it afterwords, cause I highly doubt Misty was all that helpful from scolding him?
I can't make that change in Ash's page, i'm not admin. but maybe you can? [[User:Jahman|Jahman]] ([[User talk:Jahman|talk]]) 02:55, 18 October 2015 (UTC)
== Slash (move) ==
Sorry to bother you again with a similar issue, but multiple uses keep insisting that one of the Pangoro in XY071 used the move slash, even though Pangoro has multiple moves which could look like slash and since you said that if a move wasn't confirmed because it hasn't been referred to by a name, then it shouldn't be listed, then surely that should also count for Slash as well. So, can you or myself edit the page? [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 03:30, 25 October 2015 (UTC)

== Body Mass Index and Other Random Stuff ==
Should we include a body mass index page for Pokémon? As well as images and scripts for the anime episodes, like the way South Park Archives does it? They also have episodes with character focus, even though I don't think this stuff is needed, but it should. [[User talk:BiggestPokémonFan|<span style="color:yellow">Man</span>]] 20:19, 23 December 2015 (UTC)
:We don't plan on putting transcripts of episodes on Bulbapedia in the interest of legality. We provide screenshots for most episodes through our affiliate filb.de, which is linked in the infobox of every episode page. Could you clarify what you mean by episodes with character focus? We do have categories that organize episodes by characters, these can be found by either searching the categories or checking the bottom of the episodes to view the listed categories. As for the body mass index pages, it would be beneficial to bring this suggestion to a higher staff member on the Editorial Board such as {{u|Jo The Marten}} or {{u|Kogoro}} since it's a major change and above my paygrade. Hopefully I was able to help you, let me know if you have any more questions.

== Userpage restrictions ==
Hi. :)
I've been digging up the website, and I've managed to find out much time and how many edits a user must do in order to get itself a userpage. But why is there even a limit if it's that little of a requirement? Is this just to stop one-timers from corrupting the wiki? Just wondering! See ya! [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 06:29, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
:The requirement is present to discourage users from making accounts just to make a userpage, which has been an issue in the past. On Bulbapedia, having userspace is a privilege and it shouldn't be the primary focus of any user, newer users having to gain those editing privileges reinforces that idea. Not to mention, it also gives new users time to get situated and familiar with all of Bulbapedia's policies and etc. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">--Pokemaster</span>]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">97</span>]]''''' 06:35, 22 January 2016 (UTC)

Is there a quick and effective replacement/addition tool on the wiki? I want to add quotes marks (") to all of the quotes on this page: [[Pokémon Center Nurse]] [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 07:04, 22 January 2016 (UTC)
