== Honestly... ==

I don't think it's a good idea. With the manga, anime and Pokémon, they all have a set number. Pokémon (usually) follow the National Dex order, and the manga and anime go chronologically. We ''could'' use the template and put them in alphabetical order, but come Generation V, that is going to be a big undertaking that we'd have to fix. It does sound like a good idea in principle, however, put into action, I don't think it would work out very well. --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] [[User talk:PAK Man|Talk]] 00:54, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

:Well, in that case, I think putting it in would be a good idea. Forgot about that darned index number... --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] [[User talk:PAK Man|Talk]] 00:58, 23 November 2008 (UTC)
::I don't think it would be a good idea. For manga and episodes and things, there is a set on what comes nex; even if it was by index number, the index number is somewhat random with no order, no one would know the order.

::I still really don't think this is a good idea. The index number lists aren't very stable, like how Cacopony and air lock are both #76. Also, the lists don't have a pattern to them, and aren't used other than in the game's deep coding. At least for Pokémon, the Pokédex uses the order by numbers, and every generation has a definite pattern, starters at start; legendaries at the end; and evolutions together, (most of the time). Episodes and manga are set up chronologically, so that is their pattern. There is no pattern for moves/abilities. The index numbers just seem like someone threw them together last minute, they are so random. I think that they are just something to put on the page, for the sake of putting something on the page. The prev/next for them seems like wasteful edits that just link one random move to the next: a bunch of time spent, without any really benefit. The only problem that you seem to bring up why we supposedly need them is because they need linked from one another, which most of them already are. And the have so many links on the page too. So, that is why I don't think it should happen. It seems like a waste of time with no benefit at the end, that you don't even want to do yourself because you are passing it onto BulbaBot. I rather this isn't done, it doesn't seem like a good idea. ''[[User:Maverick Nate|'''Maverick''']][[User talk:Maverick Nate|'''Nate''']]'' 04:10, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

==Kkllnn==
Well, I started to help him and Lord Arceus on the Japanese redirects project you see, and he was helpful at the beginning. Towards the end however, he felt it was a Super Contest or a battle we were competing in, which it wasn't. He began ranting the fact that he and Lord Arceus had beaten me to finishing it by teaming up. I made the implication that Kkllnn was a jerk for it, and Lord Arceus put a "jerk template" idea on Kkllnn's talk page.

== Teeter Dance ==

I'm correct on the translation, actually, and so is that trading card. Let me tell you why.
*The Japanese name of the move is "フラフラダンス" ("''furafura'' dance").
*'''Game (and my) translation:''' ''Furafura'' is used to mean (as defined by {{wp|WWWJDIC}}) "unsteady on one's feet, stagger, reel, totter, dizzy". Thus "Teeter Dance" is a correct translation.
*'''Card translation:''' "Hula-la Dance" isn't a poor translation, either; we can interpret ''"furafura"'' as "hula-hula," meaning two literal translations are possible: "Teeter Dance" and "Hula-Hula Dance." Note that occasionally, the card game will decide to use a translation different from the video games (one example is ''"Nenriki"'', literally "mindpower," translated in the video games as "Confusion" and in the card game as "Psyshock.")
Hope I cleared up any confusion on your part.--[[User:Urutapu|Ｌｏｖｅはドコ？]] ([[User talk:Urutapu|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Urutapu|contribs]]) 08:00, 23 December 2008 (UTC)

::I still really don't think this is a good idea. The index number lists aren't very stable, like how Cacopony and air lock are both #76.

Well, I started to help him and Lord Arceus on the Japanese redirects project you see, and he was helpful at the beginning.

== Honestly... ==

I don't think it's a good idea. With the manga, anime and Pokémon, they all have a set number. Pokémon (usually) follow the National Dex order, and the manga and anime go chronologically. We ''could'' use the template and put them in alphabetical order, but come Generation V, that is going to be a big undertaking that we'd have to fix.

==Kkllnn==
Well, I started to help him and Lord Arceus on the Japanese redirects project you see, and he was helpful at the beginning. Towards the end however, he felt it was a Super Contest or a battle we were competing in, which it wasn't. He began ranting the fact that he and Lord Arceus had beaten me to finishing it by teaming up. I made the implication that Kkllnn was a jerk for it, and Lord Arceus put a "jerk template" idea on Kkllnn's talk page.

:Oh, wow. Is this whole thing still going on? Listen. Everyone brought up their points politely to you, at first.

Both Porygon-Z and Moldy Orange stated the facts on the topic; we reference the games themselves for body type information, capitalize Pokémon properly, and so on. Your response was that you "don't care if it's a capital P", and to "stop bothering me". Trying to help out is all fine and dandy, but you've got to know when to listen to other people's opinions (or facts) when they present them.

If you believe a comment to be insulting, then don't dignify it with a response. Otherwise, when an argument is the end result, it's as much your fault as the other participants.
:Drop the topic(s), stop talking with the people you think are biased against you. A social "time out", so to speak.

I figured out that you are the signature-policy enforcer of Bulbapedia. This means you are one of the best at wiki-coding.

Also, it would be nice if I could change the background color of the table about my favorite Pokémon. Can it be done? One more thing.

:Wouldn't say I'm among the best here, but I've got a pretty good handle on coding...
:Alright, the "things about me" section already has a background, actually. However, the "" marks are cutting the coding off so it won't work. I'll fix that myself in a moment.
:The background on your favorite Pokémon should work the same; I'll set it up with a Fire-color background, it should be easy for you to see where to change the color once the coding's in place.
:As for the shiny Unown... I took a look around, and it actually doesn't seem like there ''is'' a sprite for the shiny Unown-C. There's an older sprite, however, but since the filename's different, you'd need to make the userbox from scratch to display it. Not sure if you'd want to do that. If we had a shiny Unown-C sprite uploaded, you would be able to display it simply by using 201C instead of just 201. Maybe TTE knows where we can find those missing sprites (or if they're already up, and hidden somewhere I can't find them). --[[user:Jioruji_Derako| '''J'''ïörüjï '''Ð'''ērākō.'''>''']][[user talk:Jioruji Derako|''.cнаt'''''^''']] 19:03, 3 October 2008 (UTC)

One tip, though. On {{p2|Lucario|Auros}}, {{m|Flash Cannon}} is pretty much useless.

Also this is subjective, what I find offensive you might not, where do we set the line, I asked him nicely, I was very civil with it, I just asked to please have my name removed from a list, and he said he couldnt be bothered.

Please, it upsets me when people are making comments about me, and I cant even get rid of them, its bullying, it may not be 1 big insult like MOTHER FUCKER, but we learnt bullying psychology in school 2 weeks ago, and the bully breaks his attacks into smaller bits to go un noticed by authority, and thats what hes doing, cos he makes loads of these nasty comments to me, but others consider them small.

Just letting you know some of the rules; you joined so long ago, you never got the current "Welcome" message, and you probably haven't had a chance to see most of the more recent ones.. You can't learn the rules if nobody tells you about them, right? Would you prefer nobody warned you at all, just wrote down a personal list of your "rule breaks", then banned you when you hit the correct number of times? (there isn't an official number for that, by the way, just using an example.)
:Relax. I've broken way worse rules then you have when I first joined various wikis, and I'm sysop on all of them, so far. Nobody's saying you're a horrible editor and you should leave, we're just letting you know what the rules are so you have the opportunity to follow them.
:I apologize if me or any of my fellow sysops have come across as, well, dicks; we often end up warning tons of users for really minor things all the time, and it's hard to be personal when you're warning a new user for a mistake that everyone else has made too. --[[user:Jioruji_Derako| '''J'''ïörüjï '''Ð'''ērākō.'''>''']][[user talk:Jioruji Derako|''.cнаt'''''^''']] 22:01, 7 December 2008 (UTC)

Welcome to my talk page. I do not take questions unless they're really easy ones that anyone could figure out. If you have a hard question that specifically concerns the 'pedia, report to [[User talk:TTEchidna|TTEchidna]], editor-in-chief. If it involves vandalism, report to [[User talk:MAGNEDETH|MAGNEDETH]] because he's not nice and he won't be nice to the vandal either. If you have a question concerning any other thing but you don't think I could figure it out, report I mean ''bother'' [[User talk:Kuki|Kuki]]. Wait, scratch that, Kuki just got blocked by His Majesty Archaic, the honorable Head of Bulbagarden! Otherwise, proceed.

==Welcome==
Welcome to [[Bulbapedia]], Dialgarules!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:
*For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].
*Read over the {{bp|style primer}} before making your edits. It is a basic outline of Bulbapedia style. For a more in-depth set of rules, see the {{bp|manual of style}}.
*Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.
*The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either '''130''' or '''0233''' on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.
*The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B'''. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
*The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
*On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).
*The use of {{bp|link templates}} is official policy.
*If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.
*A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]]. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found {{cat|stubs|here}}, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found {{cat|articles needing improvement|here}}.
*For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as [[Brock's Happiny]] being held in his arms).
*Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and [[Bulbanews]] have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.
*If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:Dialgarules/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for ''actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations''. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
*Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.
*There are certain restrictions on the content and amount of userspace content a user is allowed. For details, see the {{bp|Userspace policy}}
*Unless prior permission is given, no user is permitted to edit another user's page. Furthermore, edits to other users' pages are permitted only if there are problems that spread to other parts of Bulbapedia, such as broken links that appear on the wanted pages, switching out duplicate images that appear on the Archives, etc.
*Fan fictions, missions, riddles, games, and anything else deemed not suitable for the wiki will not be allowed. If you would like to add something, but do not know if it is acceptable, ask an administrator.
*A list of administrators that you can contact in case of a problem can be found [[Special:Listusers/sysop|here]].

I got hit with Spacial Rend, but I survived and hit with a Roar of Time, which was a 1-hit KO. --[[User:SharKing|'''Shar'''K'''ing''']] (([[User Talk:SharKing|Talk to the King!]])) 02:56, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Wait, who are we referring to again? In any case, the best course of action is to delete the page moves they have done. Over time, it will get buried deeper and deeper into the Move Log until nobody can find it without having to dig through it. That's how I found all the vandal moves. --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] [[User talk:PAK Man|Talk]] 20:48, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

:Well, I'm only removing vandalous page moves, not vandalous edits themselves. If I were doing that, I'd probably have to go through every single article on the wiki. But if you spot a page move that is offensive or vandalous, please notify one of the admins and we'll deal with it ASAP. --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] [[User talk:PAK Man|Talk]] 21:07, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

==Study Buddies==

Yeah that sounds cool, when can we start?

Alright then...hmmmmm. How about this. Why are there tighter restrictions on the signatures? This is how it works on the HRWiki:

1. Create your sig page (e.g. ALJ123456/sig)
2. Create it!
3. Save the shortcut in the preferences signature box.

On this wiki you create it in the preferences area, no pictures, smaller than usual, why?

Fair enough, fair enough, but if I was boss for 5 mins, I would set up a proper userbox page, where you could easily copy links to make making a userbox less time consuming. So then, what about the message I got recently, where the guy moaned that I had gone over the limit and threatened to close my accont, sorry got to go it's 10 at night over in England

==Welcome==
Welcome to [[Bulbapedia]], UltimateSephiroth!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:
*For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].
*Read over the {{bp|style primer}} before making your edits. It is a basic outline of Bulbapedia style. For a more in-depth set of rules, see the {{bp|manual of style}}.
*Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.
*The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either '''130''' or '''0233''' on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.
*The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B'''. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
*The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
*On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).
*The use of {{bp|link templates}} is official policy.
*If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.
*A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]]. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found {{cat|stubs|here}}, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found {{cat|articles needing improvement|here}}.
*For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as [[Brock's Happiny]] being held in his arms).
*Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and [[Bulbanews]] have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.
*If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:UltimateSephiroth/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for ''actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations''. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
*Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.
*All users are allowed to edit the userspace 3 times a day. If you edit more than 3 times, you may be subjected to a warning. If you ignore the warning, you will be given three chances to comply. If you do not comply, your ability to modify the userspace will be revoked for a period of time.
*Unless prior permission is given, no user is permitted to edit another user's page. Furthermore, edits to other users' pages are permitted only if there are problems that spread to other parts of Bulbapedia, such as broken links that appear on the wanted pages, switching out duplicate images that appear on the Archives, etc.
*Fan fictions, missions, riddles, games, and anything else deemed not suitable for the wiki will not be allowed. If you would like to add something, but do not know if it is acceptable, ask an administrator.
*A list of administrators that you can contact in case of a problem can be found [[Special:Listusers/sysop|here]].

Thank you, and have a good time editing here! ----[[Blastoise (Pokémon)|K]][[Gary's Blastoise|kl]][[Blastoise (TCG)|l]][[User:Kkllnn|nn]] [[User Talk:Kkllnn| blastoise]] 19:56, 15 October 2008 (UTC)

== Contest Tag ==

A usertag you have been using, <code><nowiki>{{User Five Masters Ribbons}}</nowiki></code>, has been moved to a new location due to a split in the usertag between the Contests of Generation III and Super Contests of Generation IV. Your tag has been switched to that template's new location, <code><nowiki>{{User Contest Master}}</nowiki></code>. If you have only mastered the Super Contests, please change the tag to <code><nowiki>{{User Super Contest Master}}</nowiki></code>. If you hav emastered both, go ahead and add both. --[[User: Tc26|'''tc''']][[User talk: Tc26|'''2''']][[Special: Contributions/Tc26|'''6''']] 14:52, 24 October 2008 (UTC)

Nice idea with the moving. It helps when we get COTDs with those names--[[User:Kuki|Kuki]][[User talk:Kuki|Talk]] 19:23, 25 October 2008 (UTC)
:Bad idea moving. Those are the only peopl present in canon and the names should not have been changed, If you would have looked at the history, you would have known that. I'm tired of people moving those pages when they are already at the needed names. ''[[User:Maverick Nate|'''Maverick''']][[User talk:Maverick Nate|'''Nate''']]'' 19:29, 25 October 2008 (UTC)

== Link Templates ==
Please use link templates when linking to stuff such as Pokémon names, attacks, and the like. For example, <nowiki>{{p|Rhydon}}</nowiki> instead of just <nowiki>[[Rhydon]]</nowiki>. This is so you don't unintentionally link to a disambiguation page.

For a full crash course on link templates, look at the {{bp|list of link templates}}. --[[User:Martonimos|((Marton]] [[User talk:Martonimos|imos))]] 19:37, 5 November 2008 (UTC)

== {{p|Starly}} ==

The reason for the thing about the header is because at the {{bp|Project Pokédex}}, we have decided to seperate origin from trivia. Me and {{u|tc26}} are already working on it.

P.S. I meant to say this in my edit summary, but I accidentally clicked "save". [[user:chocolate|Cho]][[user talk:chocolate|col]][[special:contributions/chocolate|ate]] 21:22, 8 November 2008 (UTC)

:Okay, I thought that the separation was just at the idea level, based on the discussion at the project page. I'm now confused, though: this {{u|Tesh}} assumes that the origin should be under Trivia, though you guys at {{bp|Project Pokédex}} are making it its own section. Guess I'll keep avoiding touching them because now I have no idea how it should be in order to please most of the people.

== Userspace abuse warnings ==

Normal users can give out the first three warnings by using <code><nowiki>{{subst:Userspace warning}}</nowiki></code> for the first, <code><nowiki>{{subst:Userspace warning|1}}</nowiki></code> for the second, and <code><nowiki>{{subst:Userspace warning|2}}</nowiki></code> for the third.

::How are insults the same as [[wp:vandalism|vandalism]]? Vandalism denotes the destruction or defacing of something.

I'm sorry, but signature templates are against Bulbapedia's {{bp|signature policy}}. Editing a signature template can cause stress on the server, and signature templates are prone to vandalism. You're going to have to hard-code your signature into your preferences.

And you can't put images in your signature, either. Images are also not allowed in signatures as per the signature policy. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 16:08, 6 December 2008 (UTC)

I know how much you'll hate this, but...

Slow down on editing the <code>User:</code> namespace. There are only three userspace edits allowed per day, and you have gone over the limit. Editing your userpage too much will lead to it being locked again. Instead of making multiple small edits, why not instead use the preview button (Alt + Shift + P) to check your edits before saving the page?

ALJ123456: /* Study Buddies */

Welcome to my talk page. I do not take questions unless they're really easy ones that anyone could figure out. If you have a hard question that specifically concerns the 'pedia, report to [[User talk:TTEchidna|TTEchidna]], editor-in-chief. If it involves vandalism, report to [[User talk:MAGNEDETH|MAGNEDETH]] because he's not nice and he won't be nice to the vandal either. If you have a question concerning any other thing but you don't think I could figure it out, report I mean ''bother'' [[User talk:Kuki|Kuki]]. Wait, scratch that, Kuki just got blocked by His Majesty Archaic, the honorable Head of Bulbagarden! Otherwise, proceed.

==Welcome==
Welcome to [[Bulbapedia]], Dialgarules!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:
*For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].
*Read over the {{bp|style primer}} before making your edits. It is a basic outline of Bulbapedia style. For a more in-depth set of rules, see the {{bp|manual of style}}.
*Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.
*The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either '''130''' or '''0233''' on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.
*The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B'''. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
*The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
*On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).
*The use of {{bp|link templates}} is official policy.
*If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.
*A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]]. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found {{cat|stubs|here}}, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found {{cat|articles needing improvement|here}}.
*For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as [[Brock's Happiny]] being held in his arms).
*Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and [[Bulbanews]] have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.
*If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:Dialgarules/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for ''actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations''. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
*Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.
*There are certain restrictions on the content and amount of userspace content a user is allowed. For details, see the {{bp|Userspace policy}}
*Unless prior permission is given, no user is permitted to edit another user's page. Furthermore, edits to other users' pages are permitted only if there are problems that spread to other parts of Bulbapedia, such as broken links that appear on the wanted pages, switching out duplicate images that appear on the Archives, etc.
*Fan fictions, missions, riddles, games, and anything else deemed not suitable for the wiki will not be allowed. If you would like to add something, but do not know if it is acceptable, ask an administrator.
*A list of administrators that you can contact in case of a problem can be found [[Special:Listusers/sysop|here]].

:You call those reasons? I think you should revise that list. I have pencils, too. Just because you have a Pokémon pencil and pencilcase and T-shirts and all sorts of paraphenalia doesn't mean you're the number one fan. I have a million reasons anyway, so that makes me better. Dialgarules is the number 1 fan (of both Pokémon and Dialga!!) Oh, and thanks for fixing that horrible signature. I would be sooo annoyed if you put that on my talk page. (Don't even think about it.)

::::Why would I say Dialga sucks because you are a democrat? I too am a democrat! Dialga is only useful if you are seeking a pokemon that is hard to KO, and can hit back.
'''Palkia is an absolute monster and is even more under the rain, where it can do all sorts of lethal things like 2HKO Blissey with Aqua Tail. Palkia may seem like an inferior Latios at first sight, but then you realize that Palkia has fewer weaknesses and a base 120 Attack to boot. Palkia also has enough power to hurt its counters, hence why Palkia has no real counter.''' Read it, learn it, love it.

::::Well sorry, Mr. Smartypants. I'm sorry I insulted your sweet little Palkia. So what if it has fewer weaknesses. If you actually read my userpage, then you'll see that I battled my Palkia with my brother's Dialga and the Dialga KO'd the Palkia. I don't even care if you don't like Dialga. You don't have to try to make me like Palkia because I never will. Sorry for insulting you about your typing problems. And if you hate Pikachu and Umbreon, then what kind of horrible trainer are you? '''GYAAAAAAAHHHHH''' [[User:Dialgarules|Dialgarules]] 01:51, 31 October 2008 (UTC)
:::::The same palkia who can and will almost every time OHKO a dialga. if you actually battled my team with a Pikachu and an Umbreon, you are an incompetent trainer.

== Nodody's against you ==

So you think just because someone likes Pearl or Palkia means that they hate Dialga? Haha...WRONG.

:You don't need a club. Just make a usertag. I'll help you with it, if you want.
:A club implies that there will be discussion among the members, which would mean many new edits which have nothing to do with a Pokémon wiki. --[[User:Raijinili|Raijinili]] 01:12, 1 November 2008 (UTC)

I have to say saying that "normal people do not care about Caterpie's" is '''bias''', and its really down to taste and individual. You can't go around saying that normal people don't care about a certain thing, be it an animal, or a Pokémon, or even a football team. I'm sick of certain people on this Wiki, and you're just being bias, and unprofessional. Why don't you try '''editing Bulbapedia''' and '''helping out''', rather then going around and telling people that because they like a certain Pokémon, they're not normal.

Also note: The "mwahaha" does not make you sound evil. Besides, I'm not scared. Of anything. So I'd classify that with a keyword: ''annoying''. Stop annoying me. Really. It's annoying for people to annoy me. That happens 24/7.

Sorry about the overuse of "annoying. But stop. The mwahaha is something I'm actually ''used'' to hearing. This explanation is very clear, I hope.

== Level 9 and under Regigigas ==

You asked if someone could explain why people ask for a lv. 9 and under Regigigas on GTS, so I hope you still need that answer because I'm going to. In Platinum, Regigigas is found at level 1, so that's why they can ask for one under level 9. - ''unsigned comment from [[User:Aa623|Aa623]] ([[User talk:Aa623|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Aa623|contribs]]){{ #if: | {{{2}}} |}}''

Wait, who are we referring to again? In any case, the best course of action is to delete the page moves they have done. Over time, it will get buried deeper and deeper into the Move Log until nobody can find it without having to dig through it. That's how I found all the vandal moves. --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] [[User talk:PAK Man|Talk]] 20:48, 16 November 2008 (UTC)

==Study Buddies==

Yeah that sounds cool, when can we start?

Alright then...hmmmmm. How about this. Why are there tighter restrictions on the signatures? This is how it works on the HRWiki:

1. Create your sig page (e.g. ALJ123456/sig)
2. Create it!
3. Save the shortcut in the preferences signature box.

On this wiki you create it in the preferences area, no pictures, smaller than usual, why?

ALJ123456: /* Welcoming new users */

Welcome to my talk page. I do not take questions unless they're really easy ones that anyone could figure out. If you have a hard question that specifically concerns the 'pedia, report to [[User talk:TTEchidna|TTEchidna]], editor-in-chief. If it involves vandalism, report to [[User talk:MAGNEDETH|MAGNEDETH]] because he's not nice and he won't be nice to the vandal either. If you have a question concerning any other thing but you don't think I could figure it out, report I mean ''bother'' [[User talk:Kuki|Kuki]]. Wait, scratch that, Kuki just got blocked by His Majesty Archaic, the honorable Head of Bulbagarden! Otherwise, proceed.

==Welcome==
Welcome to [[Bulbapedia]], Dialgarules!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:
*For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].
*Read over the {{bp|style primer}} before making your edits. It is a basic outline of Bulbapedia style. For a more in-depth set of rules, see the {{bp|manual of style}}.
*Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.
*The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either '''130''' or '''0233''' on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.
*The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B'''. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
*The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
*On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).
*The use of {{bp|link templates}} is official policy.
*If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.
*A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]]. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found {{cat|stubs|here}}, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found {{cat|articles needing improvement|here}}.
*For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as [[Brock's Happiny]] being held in his arms).
*Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and [[Bulbanews]] have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.
*If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:Dialgarules/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for ''actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations''. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
*Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.
*There are certain restrictions on the content and amount of userspace content a user is allowed. For details, see the {{bp|Userspace policy}}
*Unless prior permission is given, no user is permitted to edit another user's page. Furthermore, edits to other users' pages are permitted only if there are problems that spread to other parts of Bulbapedia, such as broken links that appear on the wanted pages, switching out duplicate images that appear on the Archives, etc.
*Fan fictions, missions, riddles, games, and anything else deemed not suitable for the wiki will not be allowed. If you would like to add something, but do not know if it is acceptable, ask an administrator.
*A list of administrators that you can contact in case of a problem can be found [[Special:Listusers/sysop|here]].

== Honestly... ==

I don't think it's a good idea. With the manga, anime and Pokémon, they all have a set number. Pokémon (usually) follow the National Dex order, and the manga and anime go chronologically. We ''could'' use the template and put them in alphabetical order, but come Generation V, that is going to be a big undertaking that we'd have to fix. It does sound like a good idea in principle, however, put into action, I don't think it would work out very well. --[[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]] [[User talk:PAK Man|Talk]] 00:54, 23 November 2008 (UTC)

::I don't think it would be a good idea.

::I still really don't think this is a good idea. The index number lists aren't very stable, like how Cacopony and air lock are both #76. Also, the lists don't have a pattern to them, and aren't used other than in the game's deep coding. At least for Pokémon, the Pokédex uses the order by numbers, and every generation has a definite pattern, starters at start; legendaries at the end; and evolutions together, (most of the time). Episodes and manga are set up chronologically, so that is their pattern. There is no pattern for moves/abilities. The index numbers just seem like someone threw them together last minute, they are so random. I think that they are just something to put on the page, for the sake of putting something on the page. The prev/next for them seems like wasteful edits that just link one random move to the next: a bunch of time spent, without any really benefit. The only problem that you seem to bring up why we supposedly need them is because they need linked from one another, which most of them already are. And the have so many links on the page too. So, that is why I don't think it should happen. It seems like a waste of time with no benefit at the end, that you don't even want to do yourself because you are passing it onto BulbaBot.

I'll post whenever I can... I really don't have much time to, truthfully. ... Of course, you're free to pick and choose from what I've already written. It's all at http://www.fakecard.com/pokemon/tcg/ ... Just be sure the text get rewritten, best take out all the Hmmm!'s and other personalized stuff, just so it seems more like an official encyclopedia piece, y'know? -nick15

I'm also useless when it comes to anything Nintendo has released since around Team Magma/Aqua, so you're gonna have to find someone else who's up to date with those sets. - nick15

If I remember right, a user is alerted when someone writes on their talk page. I was going to see if I had enough power to abuse to put this on the front page, but I don't =P

I'm considering taking down PokeFor by the end of the summer. So, here's an open offer for Bulbapedia to take its content, reword it into your own words and use it. Okay, so I allowed that before, but now there's a rush for content as it'll be gone within a month or two! Okay, so there's still the [http://web.archive.org/web/*/http://pokefor.greenchu.de/meowth346/ Wayback Machine] (where you can still see PokeFor's wonderous pink layout!) If PokeFor has anything of use, then have fun and enjoy. If it doesn't, then please disregard this. Feel free to pass this message on to any Bulbapedia users. Even though I openly and outright detest parts of Bulbapedia, why should I care one bit about things after I'm gone? --[[User:Meowth346|Meowth346]] 07:56, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

I was taken aback by your decision to freeze the site, but remained optimistic about the possibility that you could change your mind. I have even been keeping track of the site's recently modified files feed, and noticed that you have updated it at least once since the freeze took place. If it is not too much to ask, I would like to know why the site cannot remain in its present state, so that you can resume maintaining it if and when you change your mind.

PokeFor does indeed have its many uses, so the question should not be if Bulbapedia would be benefited from taking its content, but rather if it deserves to do so in the first place. Before PokeFor's content can be implemented, Bulbapedia has to undergo many changes, and Bulbagarden itself has to be less geared at the anime and the Pokemon fandom. The People category is a good example, merging the creators of the games with arguably influential figures in the Pokemon community (I consider it a problem that Archaic and Serebii's pages are more detailed than those of Satoshi Tajiri and Junichi Masuda). It will be very easy to simply implement PokeFor's content as it is, but it will not blend with Bulbapedia's less-than-satisfactory quality. If those in charge decide to take up Meowth346's offer, I hope that they will also be fair enough to follow suggestions to revert Bulbapedia to a true Pokémon encyclopedia. Even if he may not admit it, Meowth346 at the very least deserves to know that his hard work has been put to good use. --Unown Lord

: "so that you can resume maintaining it if and when you change your mind."; yup, you hit the nail on the head. That's why I'm dropping it. --[[User:Meowth346|Meowth346]] 11:30, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

: If you so strongly feel that it is less than satisfactory, you should take up the challenge and improve the quality [[Satoshi Tajiri|of]] [[Jun'ichi Masuda|said]] [[Ken Sugimori|articles]]. (Then again, this sort of information is hard to come by. Where could we possibly find out, say, Ken Sugimori's birthdate or Jun'ichi Masuda's birthplace?)
: But I don't think we are going to roll back on our policy to be an encyclopedia of canon '''and''' community. That's a step backwards. Anybody and everybody has an encyclopedia of canon. This is our way of differenciating ourselves. (You could argue the very idea of a wiki encyclopedia is how we are different, but anybody and everybody can have one.) As much as our latest efforts ''appear'' to be anime- and community-focused, rest assured we still respect the rest of the canon. (In fact, I would ''really'' like it if more effort was placed there...)
: But let's face facts: if people won't contribute because they feel it won't blend in, and if it won't blend in because people won't contribute - well, then we're mired in a vicious circle, aren't we? So, we accept the challenge to assimilate and integrate Meowth346's accumulated volume of knowledge. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 13:33, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

: I simply fail to see why the the People category cannot be split into two separate parts, representing the canon and the community. Looking at the other parts of the Bulbapedia, there is no major collision between the two, but judging by this example alone, that may simply be due to a coincidence. Is there not a way in which Bulbapedia can remain an encyclopedia of both canon and community, and yet not force the community upon those who could find it offensive? You must have gathered from Meowth346 that he is one such person whose enthusiastic approach towards Bulbapedia was turned down by some articles that pertain to the community. I also find that there are ''very'' few English sites which do justice to the canon, so you should see Bulbapedia has a means to collect information from those sites, as well as to highlight them over the many sites that follow the repetitive pattern of the same limited content. You should not feel obligated to focus on the community if only to make Bulbapedia unique (that is not to say that you should roll back on your policy completely, but that you should attempt at separating the community-related content from the canon-related pages).

: I have been demotivated to take an active part in Bulbapedia, but with the inclusion of PokeFor's content, I feel compelled to change that. I will do my best at ensuring that the site's content is assimilated in such a way that stays true to Meowth346's ambitions, and that the rest of Bulbapedia undergoes the necessary changes. As a final note, I only hope that this does not only mean you will intergrate Meowth346's work on the past and present games, but also strive to follow his path when future games are released (the most relevant subject being the upcoming XD game). --Unown Lord

:: Few of us have the skill or talent needed to do as he has done for the game canon. I myself have not the resources to even extract the simplest information from XD, for I have neither a GameCube nor a DVD-ROM drive to read the data with. The upcoming Diamond/Pearl are an even greater challenge: no one has ever dissected a DS Pokémon game before. I am not even aware of any successes in dumping DS games. (It is my hope that when dumped, the structure will not be ''too'' different from the GBA.)
:: The people category would have been split, were it not for the difficulty in finding suitable category names. No doubt that people agree that [[Hirokazu Tanaka|Tanaka Hirokazu]], [[Ken Sugimori|Sugimori Ken]], [[Satoshi Tajiri|Tajiri Satoshi]], [[Jun'ichi Masuda|Masuda Jun'ichi]] et al should be separated from [[Archaic]], [[Meowth346]] and [[Murgatroyd]] - just how do you define the criteria as a category name?
:: My own question is this: is it actually the community that people find offensive, or just [[:Category:Shipping|certain segments]]? - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 14:34, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:: Actually, Nintendo DS games are being dumped. Check it out [http://www.gbatemp.net/ here]. -GoldChaos

::: Cooperation is the key word. Meowth346 accomplished as much as he did because not only did he possess the knowledge and talent, he also had the ambition and intuition to decipher the games. He did have most of the resources available to him, but the English data for FireRed/LeafGreen and Emerald is at least one example for instances in which he relied on others to provide him some of the resources. He seldom expressed his wishes to turn PokeFor into a wiki, knowing that cooperation would further the already high-end standards of the site. He was enthusiastic towards Bulbapedia at first for this reason, but the project took a much different direction than he had expected. You should not regard Meowth346's kind offer as a token of his approval of Bulbapedia--I assure you this is not the case. I have no place to speak on his behalf, but I will say that this is his way to ensure that the community does not completely deteriorate after he leaves. Do not expect him to hand you all the information without any substantial work, as that will establish very little. By working on the Bulbapedia so that PokeFor's contents blend with the existing information, and to a lesser extent vice-versa, a window of opportunity will be opened. PokeFor's contents can be made even more elaborate, as Meowth346 once wished that a wiki would accomplish, and with some time and much cooperation we may be able to reach a sufficient level so as to be able to extract and analyze data from future games.

::: Myself, I was offended by the inclusion of a large part of the Bulbagarden staff in the People category. I have already described how inappropriate I find the lack of distinction between the game creators and the fans, not all of whom even deserve to be acknowledged as having contributed to the community. Some people are known, or used to be known around the community for various reasons. That is not to say that those people necessarily contributed more than others, but if their contribution can be put in words, it should mean that it is appropriate to list them. If the person is not widely known and is still listed, it creates the impression that Bulbapedia is not as community-driven as it is made out to be, and is simply dedicated to Bulbagarden's needs. In other words, if the inclusion of the person does not serve any purpose behind that of the Bulbagarden Staff profile or the user page, I tend to deem it inappropriate. I see no reason why the community-related pages in the People category cannot simply be moved to a new category: Community People. If a certain page does not even belong to this category (that is, it pertains to the person more than to his contribution to the community), it is a good sign that the content should stay on the user page or in the person's Bulbagarden profile.

::: The community-related pages should always be categorized separately from the canon-related ones. Other than the People category, the [[:Category:Pokémon meta|Pokémon meta]] category includes the pages for the Crossover Pokédex Project and the Deoxys Media Player Project, both of which have nothing to do with the franchise. The [[Fanon]] page uses examples of Shipping, which should stay in their respective category--a simple explanation of the terminology is more than enough. Community-related pages should preferably not be used to represent Bulbapedia by listing them on the Main Page (this is currently not a problem). There should also be no room for allusions to fanon theories on the canon-related pages, such as the one listed at the bottom of [[Eusine|Eusine's]] page. Finally, the priority of the top-level categories on the Main Page disturbs me greatly. It is not listed in alphabetical order, justifiably so, yet the order does appear to be random. First of all, the games should always be listed before the anime and manga. I would gladly open a debate on the subject, but I feel that you already realize that giving priority to the anime hinders Bulbapedia's status as a true Pokémon encyclopedia, and instead renders the entire project a mere part of Bulbagarden, which is undoubtedly anime-focused. The priority between the anime and manga is up to debate, but I tend to agree that the anime should be listed first for being endorsed by Nintendo. The TCG, though endorsed by Nintendo, should come after the manga for holding a separate share of the franchise. Pokémon, moves, characters, world and meta should follow in the end, as they deal with the ideas introduced in the former categories. This order should be followed in pages relating to the games, anime, manga and TCG (even organized pages, such as [[Lance|this one]], give priority to the anime-related contents by listing the Japanese voice actor in the character's introduction and listing the anime category first). --Unown Lord

:::: It is partially alphabetical, partially priority. [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Main_Page&direction=prev&oldid=4949 Originally], it was the three main bodies of canon in alphabetical order, then two miscellaneous categories. The Pokémon category was later added between those two, because it was neither a body of canon nor a miscellaneous category. Then as we added more and more, it became more and more random looking.
:::: Personally, I will regard Meowth346's offer as his last contribution to a project he had hopes for - such that he still remains one of the [[User:Zhen Lin/Top users|top 20 users]] on Bulbapedia, despite not having contributed in months.
:::: But interesting you picked Crossover Pokédex Project, Deoxys Media Player Project as examples. You will note that on Talk:Deoxys Media Player Project, I complained that it had "limited relevance". I have not retracted that statement yet - but the zeitgeist appears to be in favour of keeping it. (Either that, or no one wants to be responsible for clicking that delete button.)
:::: I think, you have highlighted a number of problems that the editorial board is not too pleased with, but we have only ourselves to blame - I may have personally contributed some nearly 2,000 edits, but I no longer edit actively, and neither does the Editor-in-Chief [[User:evkl|evkl]]. I therefore extend my invitation to you, in my capacity as Managing Editor, to join the editorial board. - [[User:Zhen Lin|振霖]][[User talk:Zhen Lin|T]] 12:12, 20 Jul 2005 (UTC)

::::: I appreciate your taking the time to address my points and am flattered by your invitation. What would my joining the editorial board entail? Does the editorial board consist of the entire Bulbagarden staff who have some part in Bulbapedia, or is it just you and evkl at the moment? I am merely looking for a way to take Bulbapedia in a different direction. I suppose that for all this time I have felt that any significant involvement on my part would not be enough to persuade others to turn to the same perspective. I hope that being on the editorial board will change this fact.

:::::: From here on in, seeing as Zhen's on vacation, I think I'll handle most of your queries. Joining the Editorial Board basically means that you take an active role in the executive-level decisions on the 'pedia. Currently, the editorial board is just Zhen and myself with Arcy and Damian sitting in from time to time. We do need new directions taken with the 'pedia, and as Zhen said, neither he nor I take active editing roles--we're more inclined towards the executive decisionmaking as of late.

As a long time visitor of the beloved Pokemon Forever Site, I often come to this site for one main reason: many Trainers data - battle e, contests, battle frontier etc. Do you mind send me all of the trainer data to me at dajason@gmail.com. Thanks for your time. I am really going to miss your great site for good... I first came here since the one warm summer of the year 2000....

I agree with and support Zhen's statement; we would be honored to work PokeFor's volumes of information into Bulbapedia.

Well, this has certainly been a surprise and a half.
We'll be sad to see you stop work on your site Meowth, as will I'm sure a great many other people. I can only hope that we live up to the legacy of this inheritance.
I'll contact you after I get home from University tonight regarding this Meowth. If you could arrange for us to have a temp. FTP account to download the PokeFor site with, so that we might store it on a local archive while we transfer its information to 'pedia, that'd be most appreciated.
--[[User:Archaic|Archaic]] 21:48, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

: Mm, no FTP access. No access to the original files and databases. People can get what they can from my pages, again as long as the reword it. No copy & pasting directly, please. This isn't a license to plagurize, just an affirmation to use and reword the information while it's still there. Of course, the Wayback Machine and Google, Yahoo, etc. have caches. Oh, and there's no way to contact me unless you e-mail me at my Gmail account. --[[User:Meowth346|Meowth346]] 21:53, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

:: Well...that certainly makes things a lot harder. We weren't intending to plagurize, but having the original information saved locally while we re-write it would've helped a great deal, both in giving us a longer of period of time in which to transfer it, and in allowing us to put up a permanent memorial site of PokeFor as it was at the time it closed, seeing as the Wayback Machine won't be able to manage anything that uses a script (your dex for instance). --[[User:Archaic|Archaic]] 22:15, 19 Jul 2005 (UTC)

== I have an idea... ==

OK, I know a lot of people are totally desperate to edit their user pages (myself included) and I also read thenotice about edits every five minutes annihilating the server then I had an idea that might make everyone happy. Would it be possible that the admnins dish out a certain date to a user starting from whenever, sort of like an appointment. Example:

*TTEchinda: 12th July
*Archaic: 13th July
*Wikid: 14th July

On this day that user could then be given the oppourtunity to edit their userpage by enabling the user to edit their page but only on that day. This way the server won't destroy itself and everyone can have their own personally edited pages. If they want to change it they could ask an admin for an "appointment" and so the admins don't get bombarded with requests about userpage edits you could have a one edit per month or whatever rule. Would that work? [[User:Wikid|Wikid]] 16:29, 9 July 2008 (UTC)

:Thing is, some people have their own sandboxes in the user space as well. The community sandbox is so cluttered, that it takes forever to load...

== Bulbapedia in Slovenian language ==

How can we have Bulbapedia in Slovenien language? [[User:Gregory|Gregory]] 14:34, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

:You're better off looking for an existing Slovenian Pokémon wiki that uses MediaWiki software and a Creative Commons license.

:In the event one could conclude that such a wiki doesn't already exist, you'd then be best off obtaining a good server and beginning your own MediaWiki-software Creative Commons-licensed wiki. Since there's a Wikipedia in the Slovenian language, such a task is feasibly possible. Then, you'd be best off creating at least minimal stub articles for each of the 493 Pokémon; if the Pokémon have localized Slovenian names, use those. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 15:07, 21 October 2008 (UTC)

== Thank you ==

For removing that <s>Abomination</s> Sad excuse for a user. He has been asking for it[[User:DCM|DCM]][[User talk:DCM|((曲奇饼妖怪]][[Special:Contributions/DCM|Spy on My Edits))]]

:What the heck did he do to warrant a ban for 6 months? I mean I'm not the biggest Kuki fan, but he has contributed a lot to the mainspace. I mean he got pictures for CODs that I was too lazy to get. Yeah, he got into edit wars frequently, that was his flaw, but I don't think you have the right to call him a sorry excuse for a user. There are other users here that I think disserve a ban more than Kuki does. You know, users who contribute NOTHING and just like to talk to people like its Myspace and only cause drama.

:And pardon my words, but he's been making more edits to Bulbapedia than you have in the past year, Archaic. Okay, you may have been doing important things, but I don't think you have a right to call another user "useless". A user who has been contributing something almost everyday since the beginning of the year is not my definition of useless.

:I honestly don't know what's happening to this administration lately... First TTEchidna, now this... I may not know the entire back story, but it just seems to me like the admins are blocking people for their own best interest. For what ever Kuki did off of Bulbapedia, it really shouldn't reflect upon him here...

== I don't understand... ==

I don't understand why the Bulbapedia admins consider anime gun-jumps as something wrong and evil which should be eradicated, while game gun-jumps and leaks are perfectly okay and acceptable. I don't see the difference between the two. You simply have some kind of an obsession, I believe. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 17:28, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

:It's because anime stuff falls under an "until it airs" policy. It's possible that a detail could be revealed, highly popularized, and then later revealed to be wrong.

:Enforcment of "until it airs" was stepped up after an event largely referred to nowadays as the [[Bulbapedia:James/Gardenia poll|Cacnea debacle]]. It was started by {{u|Shiny Noctowl}} after what was a then-routine plot-spoiling of events from [[DP053]] and [[DP054]]. Shiny Noctowl then proceeded to move the [[James's Cacnea]] article to "Gardenia's Cacnea", citing "James no longer has a Cacnea, we shouldn't have an article about something that doesn't exist" and giving bullsh{{tt|*|i}}t points to try to defend that angle. Negativity ensued, and a poll was waged. The poll heavily favored a move back (the article was later moved back), but Shiny Noctowl was determined to tip the scales by any means necessary; first by adding bullsh{{tt|*|i}}t weighting garbage, then by messing with the evidence, and even claiming that "consensus" meant that "everyone agrees" and since that not everyone agreed, it wasn't consensus.

:During that same timeframe, [[Ash's Chimchar]] suffered a minor incident also related to the plot-spoiling, when a vandal erased the page's content over and over, claiming the entire page was false. However, this incident was far more minor compared to the larger Cacnea debacle.

:The Cacnea debacle was so big that the plot-spoiling practice was ended once and for all after the debacle broke out. The "until it airs" policy was stepped up starting with [[DP055]] and has remained stepped up since. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 17:43, 10 October 2008 (UTC)

:Actually, the person I had just dealt with was not a userspace abuser. That user had created a page about a fanon move in the main namespace.

:Anyway, if a user does get hit with the "abuse" tag and is known for writing a lot of fanon in their userspace, I'd go ahead and recommend the fanon wiki.

::Yes, a card can still be considered a reprint if it lacks the level. {{TCG ID|Base Set|Pikachu|58}} from the {{TCG|Base Set}} was legally usable while {{TCG|POP Series 2}} was {{TCG|Modified format|Modified-legal}} despite the POP 2 reprinted Pikachu not having the level, as every necessary element to get deemed a reprint (HP, attack costs, attack effects or similar rewords/tweaks, Weakness, Resistance, Retreat Cost) was present on the POP 2 version of the card. The reprinted Pokémon Web cards fall into this situation.

::Now, there are some situations where missing or altered elements results in two very similar cards be considered different from each other. The reason {{TCG ID|EX Team Rocket Returns|Dratini|52}} 52 from {{TCG|EX Team Rocket Returns}} is ''not'' considered a reprint of the {{TCG ID|Base Set|Dratini|26}} from the Base Set is because the former has no Resistance, while the latter has a {{e|Psychic}} Resistance. The difference in Resistance makes the difference in making them different cards, similar to how attack costs kept {{TCG ID|POP Series 4|Pikachu|13}} from {{TCG|POP Series 4}} from being a reprint of the {{TCG|Jungle}} {{TCG ID|Jungle|Pikachu|60}}. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 17:10, 4 November 2008 (UTC)

Self-references are not limited to Active Pokémon, never have been, never will be. In closing: It's a self-reference, the usage of TT is indeed correct. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 04:37, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

== Piplup ==

Why can't we just add Piplup to the roster? It's been in every episode since DP060. Also it has an [[Surely Tomorrow|ending]] dedicated to it. You say that DP087 proves your point. However, it did appear in the beginning. Just that it went back in its PokéBall for the rest of the episode. I say we should mark it as confirmed in every episode until it is absent one more time. Then I will drop this whole thing. But since it appeared in every episode this year, I say give it a chance. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 22:39, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

:I'm sorry, but I'm with {{u|Missingno. Master}} on this one. There's no proof that Piplup's going to be appearing in any episode with just a title. None at all. Trends mean nothing in Piplup's case; it's got a Poké Ball and has never shown that it doesn't like being inside it, so it could just as easily spend an entire episode in its Poké Ball as it could out of it. If we were to liken Piplup to any other common-appearance Pokémon, it would be to [[Jessie's Wobbuffet]], not [[Misty's Togepi]].

:Besides, listing Piplup in the roster by default is bound to cause problems. The general consensus about Piplup's default roster status is that it should ''not'' be listed by default; there is no evidence to suggest otherwise. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 22:45, 27 November 2008 (UTC)

::There's no evidence that the other characters will be there. So why are they okay? ''Crecelia vs Darkrai'' doesn't indicate that Team Rocket will be in it. What if all of a sudden they decide to make Team Rocket not appear for one episode? I don't categorize Piplup the same as Wobbuffet. For one, Wobbuffet will show up for like 5 episodes and then be absent in the sixth. Piplup has gone for 44 episodes straight. It disserves a chance. Especially given the ending. I doubt there going to make it absent after that. If it's gone again, we can remove it. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 03:44, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

::::I'm sorry, but we're going to need super-hard evidence to put Piplup on the default roster--and even then Wobbuffet'll show up along with it. By super-hard evidence, I'm talking blatant refusal to go into its Poké Ball in a normal mood, or the Poké Ball being broken and Dawn refuses to have it fixed. Odds are far greater that Piplup evolves in [[DP104]] and rots in its Poké Ball for all of [[DP105]] than either of those things happening. If consensus says Piplup doesn't deserve a space on the default, then Piplup doesn't go on the default. Too much more of these disagreements about Piplup's status and I'll have to have a higher authority step in. The humans are listed as default since they can't go into Poké Balls. Pikachu's listed as default since it blatantly refuses to go into one even on the best of days. Meowth's listed as default since we don't even know if it's ever been in a Poké Ball. Had Bulbapedia and its current standards existed during the earlier run, Togepi would have been listed as default since it never went into a Poké Ball. Piplup's not like that--there's ALWAYS the possibility it won't appear, and it should NEVER be assumed that it will when there's a chance it won't. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 04:33, 28 November 2008 (UTC)

Rex, what do you mean by "messing with kanji", and could you elaborate on the Pokémon redirects "being a different story"? [[User:Bulbapedian|Bulbapedian]] - [[User talk:Bulbapedian|Talk]] 16:01, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
:Messing with Kanji. The episode titles have kanji in them. Kanji can be written out in hiragana(or in some cases katakana). If you are going to do a mass redirect, you should make two redirects, one of the title and one of the spelled out kanji. This is all assuming that you can read the kanji. I'm not trying to be a jerk, but it seems really, really, stupid. And the Pokémon redirects. Those were also a stupid idea, but Pokémon are the base of the franchise. Pokémon exist in every form of Pokémon media. The anime is a section of the franchise, not ''the'' franchise. If you remember, I was ''also'' opposed to the three day long project that was the Pokémon redirects. Again, editing for the sake of editing. --[[User:RexRacer|'''Rex]][[Quilava (Pokémon)|Racer''']] [[User talk:RexRacer|'''''-talk''''']] 16:09, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
::Oh, I see. Kanji are the italicized words in the parentheses showing the translations of the titles back from Japanese, or along those lines. Yes, I agree with you about the Pokémon redirects being solely for edit boosting, and being useless since the Japanese titles would have to be copied and pasted into the search box in order to be used anyway. But my point was for this that if that was done, then the episode titles dort of '''have''' to be. If you do one, the other one does too, regardless of its importance. I only wish they hadn't started it in the first place. [[User:Bulbapedian|Bulbapedian]] - [[User talk:Bulbapedian|Talk]] 16:17, 7 December 2008 (UTC)
:::No... Kanji are a form of calligraphy, similer to hiragana and katakana. For example, 田 means "ta" in kanji. It means "rice paddy field", but is often included in names, such as "Tanaka". 中 means "chū" in kanji. It can mean many things, most often it means "middle". 国 means "goku", used to talk about countries. Now, if you want to get complex, 田 "ta" and 中 "chū", when used next to each other, make 田中, the kanji spelling of the name "Tanaka". When 中 is used in a different context, it makes "naka". Finally, 中国 means China. Chūgoku is also a region in Japan, literally "middle country". As you can see, even three of the simplest kanji are extremely complex things to deal with.

==Physiology==
Mothim has four tan-colored wings, two large and two small, with brown circles adorning them.

Mothim's body is gray also and its legs are white. It also has a small gray tail that splits into two. It doesn't matter what form Burmy was in before it evolved; Mothim will always look the same.

=Trivia=
Mothim is completely symmetrical
==Origin==
Mothim is based on an adult [[wp:Bagworm moth|Bagworm Moth]], which only fully mature if male.

===Name origin===
Mothim's Japanese name is derived from ''ga'', the Japanese word for moth, and an intentional misspelling of the English word ''male''. Mothim comes from ''moth'' and ''him''. Its German name, Moterpel, comes from {{tt|Motte|moth}}. Its French name, Papilord, comes from {{tt|papillon|butterfly}} and ''lord''.

===In other languages===
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Moterpel
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Papilord

'''Unown''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: アンノーン ''Annon'') is a {{t|Psychic}}-type Pokémon. As of [[Generation IV]], Unown has 28 derivative shapes. There are 26 English alphabet characters, plus two punctuation marks: ''?'' (question mark) and ''!'' (exclamation mark). That shape is determined by its [[personality value]].

=Biology=
==Physiology==
===Gender differences===
This Pokémon is genderless.

===Different forms===
Unown has 28 different forms, one for each letter of the alphabet, as well as '!' and '?'. These are chronicled in the [[Unown Dex]].

===Special abilities===

==Behavior==
Unown can make telepathic contact with humans.

==Habitat==
[[Image:Rare.gif|right|frame|[[List of Pokémon by habitat#Rare Pokémon|Rare Pokémon]]]]
Unown live in [[Alternate dimension|their own dimension]].

When they move to the Pokémon World, Unown seem to prefer to make their habitat in ancient ruins, appearing only in the [[Ruins of Alph]] in [[Johto]], [[Tanoby Chambers]] in the [[Sevii Islands]], [[Solaceon Ruins]] in [[Sinnoh]] and [[Unown Relic]] in the [[Pokémon World (Mystery Dungeon)|Mystery Dungeon world]].

==Diet==
''Main article: [[Pokémon food]]''

=In the anime=
[[Image:Unown anime.JPG|left|thumb|An Unown in the anime]]
[[Image:Unown DP040.JPG|right|thumb|[[Cynthia]] next to a tablet that has Unown on it]]
The Unown play a large role in the [[Spell of the Unown|third movie]], creating the illusions which drive the plot.

Notes about Unown can be seen on [[Professor Oak]]'s computer at the beginning of the movie. The information (as presented in the Japanese version) has been cleaned up and transcribed here:
* Because of their very timid and careful character, Unown do not want to go out to the external world.
* Unown have the power to perceive the feelings of other creatures (including human beings).
* Unown communicate with each other over electromagnetic waves but cannot use telepathy.
* Given all this, Unown are still classified as a species of Pokémon, as opposed to any other sort of creature.

Oddly enough, also on Professor Oak's computer appear several Unown of shapes not yet encountered.

An Unown fell out of the Unown dimension in ''[[EP263|Address Unown]]''. After it was healed by the group, it helped defend against Team Rocket and its mind merged with that of [[Ash's Larvitar]] so that the group could help it to address its inner pain.

Unown also appeared on a tablet that [[Cynthia]] was reading in [[DP040]]

=In the manga=
==In the Pokémon Special manga==
Unown first appeared in [[Pokémon_Special_Volume_8|Volume 8]] when {{Special|Gold}} and [[Bugsy]] were in the [[Ruins of Alph]]. Gold had his {{p|Sunkern}} use {{m|Flash}} to blind [[Team Rocket]], but accidentally disturbed the Unown from their slumber with the light from Flash. Bugsy later returns to study the Ruins further in [[Pokémon_Special_Volume_11|Volume 11]], where he captures an Unown (G).

Unown later appear in [[Pokémon_Special_Volume_24|Volume 24]], having been awakened by [[Sird]] from the [[Tanoby Ruins]] to use as a distraction while she fought [[Lorelei]]. The Unown later appear again throughout the volume, being employed by Team Rocket as living security cameras while impeding the progress of {{Special|Red}}, {{Special|Blue}} and {{Special|Green}}.

=In the TCG=
In the TCG, a card has been printed for each form, with each card having a Pokémon Power/Poké-Power that starts with its own letter. Before the Diamond and Pearl set, the Unown were all counted as having the same name, thus allowing only four Unown total in any deck. From the Diamond and Pearl set and onwards, each letter is counted as its own name.

Oddly, the original, Neo-era release of Unown R did not receive an English-language printing, meaning that it was the only one of the original 26 not available in English.

=Other appearances=
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]===
When one Unown is released from a Pokéball it will fly off the screen. It then returns with a large swarm similar to what {{p|Beedrill}} did in the original [[Super Smash Bros.]]. The only difference is that Beedrill only attack from left or right while Unown can come from up, down, left, right, or diagonally. Any opponent caught in this is is damaged and juggled.

There are also a number of Unown Pokéfloats. In the second half of the cycle, a number fly across the screen. Towards the end of the cycle, staying on the stage relies on hopping between the Unown.

=Trivia=
[[Image:Unreleased Unown.jpg|thumb|right|Unown 6?]]
*In [[Spell of the Unown]], [[Professor Oak]] had some pictures of [[Unreleased Pokémon|unreleased]] Unown on his computer. They resemble a few [[wp:Greek alphabet|Greek alphabet]] letters, especially σ (lowercase sigma), Σ (capital sigma), π (pi) and Ω (omega). The top-middle Unown may be also a variation of an ancient Egyptian symbol of protection, [[wp:Eye of Horus|the Eye of Horus]]. This may lead to the conclusion that there are more forms of Unown, being the prototypes of other known (or unknown) alphabets.
*In [[Generation II]], the Unown appear to be able to generate a radio signal.
* In Diamond and Pearl, the Ruin Maniac asks you to go catch Unown, if all 26 are caught in Solaceon Ruins, the chances of finding a Hippopotas in the tunnel increas, the tunnel leads to a chamber where Unown ! and ? can be found
==Origin==
Their appearances are corruptions of the modern [[wp:Latin alphabet|Latin alphabet]]. Some claim they more closely resemble Celtic runes. [[wp:Runes|Runes]] are ancient carved inscriptions, and there are many runic alphabets. The shapes of the Unown are used like runes in the Pokémon world, although in [[Generation III]] their place has been taken by [[wp:Braille|Braille]].

===Name origin===
Unown's name is a misspelling of the word ''unknown''. Its German name is a corruption of ''incognito'', one who has their identity concealed. The French name, ''Zarbi'', is the word ''bizarre'' in verlan, a youth language.
