== Pokemon of the Day? ==
I was wondering; how does the Pokemon of the day work? Does the site randomly change it based on some complex system, or do you just choose one? If it is the later, on Wednesday (the 6th) can you make it Flygon?--[[User:Goukazaru|Gou]] 17:17, 4 May 2009 (UTC)
:The exact calculation is...

IF it's not December 10 (in which case it will ALWAYS be Bulbasaur), the Pokémon is whatever the Unix time of midnight on that calendar date is divided by what number day of the year it is, and divided by 493 to get the remainder. Meaning, today, we get #{{#ifexpr: {{#time: z}} = {{#time: z|December 10}}|001|{{padleft:{{#expr: (({{#time: U|{{#time: F j, Y}}}}) div ({{#time: z}} + 1)) mod 493}}|3|0}}}}, {{p|{{Num2N|{{#ifexpr: {{#time: z}} = {{#time: z|December 10}}|001|{{padleft:{{#expr: (({{#time: U|{{#time: F j, Y}}}}) div ({{#time: z}} + 1)) mod 493}}|3|0}}}}}}}}

I'm likely gonna change it though. Make it a little more complex. So hey, Flygon might come up randomly. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 19:24, 4 May 2009 (UTC)

===As of two seconds ago...===
The calculation is now:

Take the Unix time of midnight today ({{#time: U|{{#time: F j, Y}}}}) plus the number formed by the current year, date, and month combined into one ({{#time: Ymd}} for today) times the number formed by the day of the year, week number in the year, and number of the day of the week (Sunday being 0) combined ({{#time: zWN}} for today). Then take all the previous and divide it by the number of days in the month times 8 (for {{#time: F}}, {{#time: t}} * 8 is {{#expr: {{#time: t}} * 8}}), and add to all previous the number of the current day of the year ({{#time: z}} for today). Then take the whole damn thing and see what the remainder is when you divide by 493, and add 1.

{{#switch: {{#time: z}}|{{#time: z|February 14}}=Since it's Bulbapedia's anniversary, it becomes 1 by default, making {{p|Bulbasaur}} the Pokémon of the day today.|This results in {{#expr: ((({{#time: U|{{#time: F j, Y}}}} + ({{#time: Ymd}} * {{#time: zWN}})) div ({{#time: t}} * 8) + {{#time: z}}) mod 493) + 1}}, making {{p|{{Num2N|{{#expr: ((({{#time: U|{{#time: F j, Y}}}} + ({{#time: Ymd}} * {{#time: zWN}})) div ({{#time: t}} * 8) + {{#time: z}}) mod 493) + 1}}}}}} the Pokémon of the day today.}}

Any questions? The talk page opens again at 8 PM UTC. Funny thing is, since I forgot to include the + 1 at the end before, there was that 1/493 chance that the PotD would end up being... Missingno. And completely blow up my template since {{template|Num2N}} doesn't set itself for 0. BUT IT DIDN'T, WHAT A MIRACLE.

== TCG (game) ==

I haven't noticed any standards set in place for the TCG video game, yet. I'm curious to know what jurisdiction it falls under seeing as it's a video game of the card game (just to avoid conflict and confusion). Personally, I think it should be primarily considered a video game, and the TCG part should be secondary and merely referential. TCGdex has it's own section, and direct intervention of the actual TCG ruins the cohesion and integrity of the articles specific to the video game.

Also, I recently uploaded a complete collection of the TCG1 card sprites, and I'm slowly updating the info relevant info little by little. How do I go about making templates for the sprites so I only have to put in a compressed code? Thanks. [[User:Kusanagi87|Kusanagi87]] 13:50, 18 March 2009 (UTC)

== Spotless Gen III Spinda? ==

Here, for Spinda's Gen IV sprites, we use the ones that were programmed into the game (for an impossible personnality value of 0) and serve as placeholders. I thought it might be interesting to manually remove the spots from a Gen III Spinda's face. Although I know that it is technically fan-made, we could perhaps use this as Spinda's Gen III sprite.

:And where should I start editing Mr. Bossy? I'm not that old, only eighteen, so I haven't the slightest idea what happened during the Orange Island episodes. If you could give me some pages that need cleaning up, I'd gladly go there and help out. Until then, I '''''will''''' suggest movesets no matter what you ''sysop'' say because I want to help people. So much ♥, [[User:Lapras|Lapras]] 01:24, 22 March 2009 (UTC).
::OK, I know people have tried to explain this to you but I'll give it a shot. First of all, I'm younger than you and even I remember the Orange Islands. They probably assumed that you liked the Orange Islands since you like {{p|Lapras}} since that was when Ash caught [[Ash's Lapras|his]]. Second of all, TTE here is not just a normal sysop/admin he's the editor in chief and, thus, pretty much th highest power here. Third off, this page's name (TTEchidna) is preceded by "User talk:" other pages (such as yours: {{u|Lapras}}) are preceded by the word "User:". These show which namespace its in (ie. User, User talk, and just plain "Talk"). Regular talk pages are used to talk about the article in question, User talk (like the page your using for an FAQ: {{ut|Lapras}} are used to talk to the specific user. If wish to have an FAQ page, please start a new one as a subpage (which is something many users like to have) such as: '''''User:Lapras/FAQ''''' or something similar. Anything without similar words preceding them are "mainspace". All edits take a certain toll on the server but only mainspace ones (and things such as templates) truly contribute to the wiki as a whole. We therefore encourage users to contribute to the mainspace more than most other things. We also try to limit ourselves to official information in the mainspace as much as possible. For example, unless Nintendo says that a certainmoveset is "the best", we won't put it in the mainspace. Once again, if you must put that, put it in a user page of yours. Just try to make more mainspace edits first;). Any more questions can be directed to my talk page (just click the "E" in my sig).

Setting protection to expire at around 10:00 UTC (the standard time for Japanese-based anti-gunjump measures) for a dub-based anti-gunjump measure is just begging for gun-jumpers to take advantage of a {{tt|three|Or four, depending on whether it's daylight savings time or standard time}}-hour window.

== Article for Galactic Grunt with swollen ass, "Uranus" an acceptable title? ==

As brought up in discussion on the [[Talk:Galactic Grunt|Galactic Grunt talk page]], there is a recurring character in ''{{g|Diamond and Pearl Adventure}}'' who is easily notable enough for his own article, but has no actual ''name'', leaving us stumped as to what to call him. The term "Uranus" has been in use a little bit, as a reference to the planetary naming system for Galactic Commanders, as well as his swollen butt. However, before simply going with this fan made name (of course when made, the fan-made nature of the name will be noted within the article) [[User:Theryguy512|Theryguy512]] said that while it seems a decent alternative to a long running title like "The Galactic Grunt with the swollen buttocks", I {{tt|should|must}} run the idea by you first. --[[User:Sato|Sato]] 12:24, 2 April 2009 (UTC)

== Sevii Islands debate ==

Oh please, I last posted six months ago, and noone had continued arguing, so I assumed you'd seen the light, and I'd won the debate. But I posted that week long deadline to be sure, you're lucky I didn't start editing right away (you sertainly seemed to see it quick enough). Also, the game says One Island, it stays One Island, and it certainly doesn't get changed to its nickname just because you dislike it's proper name. '''When you chose the island to sail to, it says one island and such!''' It does not say Knot island. The one piece of evidence for your theory is the signs, and they are most likely simple nicknames, as the islands are never again named as such. Come on, this is just common sence. But if you need more evidence, even the Pokemon Adventure manga (widely regarded as the anime closest to the actual games) explicitly states right out that they are just nicknames. If that isn't proof, I don't know what is, at the very least it's much better than simply assuming, I'm sure they're more familier with the workings of pokemon than you are.

I have an idea, maybe, instead of disregarding the names nintendo itself gives you for some simple nicknames, '''you''' should mailbag nintendo to see if you're right instead of making foolish and baseless assumptions. [[User:Noname|Noname]]

::There's a way not to give the [[Pearl (game)|primary Generation IV rival]] a name, either from the default list headed by "Barry" or "{{tt|Clint|How much are you willing to bet the DP101 dub title was PUSA pulling a fast one on us, and THIS is what they used for Jun's dub name?}}" (depending on version) or a customizable name. The character's page describes how this is possible, and the end outcomes of such an action. This is probably the reason why the article's at "Pearl" and not "Barry" or even "Clint". --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 23:49, 5 April 2009 (UTC)
:::Same rules are followed for {{ga|Blue}} and {{ga|Silver}}. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 20:51, 6 April 2009 (UTC)

:::For Blue it's obvious that his name is Blue because it says so in G/S/C. For Silver, you're forced to give him a name and if you choose ok without giving him one, it'll automatically go to Silver. So he only has one default name and it's Silver. Pearl on the other had has many names and the one that appears most often is Barry. Plus, Lucas and Dawn don't have names based off the game, so Pearl is like the odd man out. I guess it just makes more since that his name would be Barry. Also...Pearl is a girl's name! :P - Kirby Phelps (PK)
::::Lucas and Dawn are the names. Pearl's just Pearl because that's what's given if you hit "new name" and then hit okay. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 07:17, 11 April 2009 (UTC)

:::::::::If her english name were Green, her Japanese name would be Blue. It makes the most sense. Also, I know we can't really judge the names based on the manga, but the female character in the first generation of the manga's name was Green in the english manga. And then Green changed her clothes to look more like Leaf. She looks exactly like Leaf in fact. So Leaf and Green are actually the same. So why would her name be Leaf? Is there any proof that her name is Leaf? I mean Leaf is just one name out of the many many default names for her. Her name could just as easily be Fire. - Kirby Phelps (PK)
::::::::::There's dummied-out Trainer data for both her ''and'' Red, and for their names, in both English ''and Japanese'' it's Red/レッド Leaf/リーフ. We've been over this a thousand times.

== A category idea ==

Would it be alright if I create a category known as "Milestone episodes"?

For example:
*[[EP001]] - The first ep
*[[EP100]] - The 100th ep
*[[EP200]] - The 200th ep
*[[EP128]] - The episode of the new millennium.
*[[EP261]] - The first episode aired with digital paint
*[[DP121]] - The first episode aired in HD

:That's a good idea. Don't forgo the 300th, 400th, and 500th (and soon 600th) episodes, though. Also, [[EP179]] is the first episode of the new millennium. However... EP128 was the first (and only so far) to air on the first of the year. And make sure to have the series-changes (last of the series, first of the series) be milestones, as well.

I tried to ask this on the page's discussion, but got no answer... I remember reading somewhere that, unless there's a good reason to do otherwise, Pokémon should be listed by their Ndex number.
