  • I'm really happy to see someone put this up as a FAC, considering how much work I've put into the article. There's still a little more work to be done - the manga section makes me sad because it still has a picture ganked from Serebii - but otherwise I do think this is one of our best articles. --Pie ~ 18:25, 8 May 2007 (UTC)
  • I definitely think it's one the most in-depth articles in Bulbapedia... I blame you totally for it, Pie. TTEchidna 04:02, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
  • Very nice, high quality article. Perfect grammar, nice detail. Good job! -Politoed666 01:56, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Nice, Nice, really really nice. Good grammar. Long article. Everything. Good Pictures too. --User:GlalieGuy
  • IMO, the most information filled page on Bulbapedia! Image:Ani493MS.gifZanderImage:Ani493MS.gif 09:43, 11 March 2008 (UTC)
  • This is one of the best of Bulbapedia articles and it should be a featured one


  • This is very detailed and interesting to read, I would definatly like this to become featured - AdamDuffield - 1 April 2008 (UTC)

  • Why is it that when I push the FACs, people think I'm only trying to get this article featured? --Pie ~ 03:54, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
    • ... actually, on second thought, don't answer that. --Pie ~ 03:54, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
  • I'm sure this is really good page, but it looks sooo long. I think it needs to be broken up more or something. I just can't bring myself to wade through all that text. --Greengiant 06:15, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
  • I would vote "support," but I already voted for Pokémon world in relation to the real world. --dpiconani224.gifShiny NoctowlTalk | Fundpiconani480.gif 19:26, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
    • Uh, it's not like voting for one out of the ones up here to be accepted as a featured article. It is a judgment of the individual article for the status. All of these could be accepted as Featured Articles without causing conflict. Note how I've voted that I support several. ^^o --Pie ~ 04:16, 26 September 2007 (UTC)

The Underground

  • One of the longer articles with unique content (the item chart - which could be improved if replaced with one that had images of the actual items). - 振霖T 15:06, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
  • I agree. Kinda amazing that not even six months ago the main picture went down further than the text. --TTEchidna 17:19, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
  • It was a difficult article to expand, but it was definitely worth it. --Pie ~ 07:25, 4 July 2007 (UTC)
  • The page seems to be very well constructed, I agree. Deadlymethane 17:02, 7 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Well written, useful, and comprehensive. Blastcage 22:02, 20 July 2007 (UTC)
  • Although it could use to be spiced up a little, it's really good and must have taken a lot of time. -Politoed666 17:52, 9 September 2007 (UTC)
  • This is one of the best articles on Bulbapedia! --Shiny NoctowlTalk|ContribsImage:Ani164MS.gif 14:02, 5 October 2007 (UTC)
  • Super. User:GlalieGuy
  • Very Good quality page. This is a must read for people who want to learn about the Underground. Rpp 23:15, 11 April 2008 (UTC)RPP.
  • Nicely detailed, there might be little tiny holes here and there, but I think this is one fiine article. :) TinaTheKirlia Image:Ani281MS.gif 16:05, 17 October 2007 (UTC)

Oppose

  • i'm putting this here in the hope it gets noticed. i've also put the same thing on the ungerground's own talk page. just want to say i oppose the featured article but ONLY IF the information is wrong, and to be honest, having a featured article that is wrong doesn't look good for this site. i've just collected THREE flags from an other player in the underground, and my own flag was upgraded to SILVER. here it states you need to collect FIVE flags before this upgrade happens. can anyone confirm five is correct? does it have something to do with different versions? i'm playing both diamond and pearl, UK version. i did this on both games, THREE flags each ugraded to SILVER. if there are differences between the different countries then i think this is significant enough to be included. would also make the page better for being featured!

You do realize that seven minutes is not adequate for it to be noticed... If it's really three, then change it. TTEchidnaFire echyGSDS! 05:29, 24 February 2008 (UTC)

Pokémon world in relation to the real world

  • This is an extremely detailed and interesting article! It should definitely be a Featured Article. --Shiny Noctowl 14:41, 16 August 2007 (UTC)
  • I agree. While it not might be a real relevant one, it definitely has a lot to offer. -Politoed666 01:58, 7 September 2007 (UTC)
  • This is by far the most interesting article I've seen on Bulbapedia! I always thought that they were completely fictional places! Definite yes. --- Gazco !!!! my page|Talk 17:01, 8 September 2007 (UTC)
  • I would definitely support this article. It is one of the most interesting on the site, as well as one of the most educational. Showing what each of the place names means is an excellent way to give people from outside of Japan an idea as to how Pokémon gets its names. --- Admachina 14:02, 23 September 2007 (UTC)
  • I have to agree, it's a very detailed article that deserves to be featured. --Lime 20:23, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
  • Very informitive and well written. --Theryguy512 23:26, 5 February 2008 (UTC)
  • Worthy of being featured. Personally, it's one of my favorite articles on the entire wiki. --Zeta 21:49, 21 October 2007 (UTC)
  • This article very much deserves to be a featured article. Trainer-c
  • Great article, but it seems to me that the map is a little off. I think that in the games they compacted a bit more space into Johto, like they did in Sinnoh, and that Cianwood may be the small island between Honshū and Shikoku. Zeyfre
  • This article is one of the most interesting I've read on Bulbapedia. --LynnCreed 19:43, 6 April 2008 (UTC)

Ash Ketchum

Support (3)

  • Definitely one of the best on Bulbapedia. Very complete, interesting, etc. Easily as good as, if not better than the Legendary Pokemon and Poke Ball articles. ~RR~ 00:55, 14 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Amazing character, amazing article. Better than Brock. I completly agree on this one. PL12 12:20, 21 April 2008 (UTC)
  • Yes, I definitely think the Ash Ketchum article deserves to be a featured article. It's very worthy of earning this award! And I'm saying this not only because Ash is my favorite character, but also because this is an AMAZING article overall! It's very informative, it's interesting, and it actually explains just about everything there is to know about the character. And in my opinion, you could not find a better character to be featured. Ash, the main character truly deserves this honor!! ^_^ PokemonTrainerLisa 09:36, 28 April 2008 (UTC)
