==thank you==
Thank you for the kind greetings. I came and joined this wiki comunity to help with the "Pokemon + Nobunagas Ambition" game. I am a huge fan of KOEI and their games, and while i dont know much about pokemon outside the cartoons, i thought i could help by proving information regarding the human characters in the upcoming crossover game

I hope i can be of service [[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] 07:35, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

==I have a question==
First of all thank you for the nice greeting, I apreciate it.
Also I noticed that on your page it said your favorite Pokemon was Evee. I would like to add my favorite Pokemon (Chandelure) to my page, how can I do that?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:15, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're welcome! Do you mean the little tag on my page? First you have to make some edits to the mainspace, so you can gain the ability to create and edit your userpage. Don't ask me how many, I don't know. Once you can do that, add <code><nowiki>{{Template:User Favorite|609|Chandelure}}</nowiki></code> to your page. For more information, look {{bp|Usertag|here}}. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 07:28, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==Thank you==
Yes, the tag is very nice, and thanks for letting me know!
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:49, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==I can't find the mainspace==
Sorry if I am bothering you, but I am new to Bulbapedia. Is there a link somwhere?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:02, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. "Mainspace" refers to most Bulbapedia pages that don't start with "talk:" or "user:". For example, the edit you made to {{p|Axew}}'s article counts as a mainspace edit. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:08, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
==it still will not let me edit my userpage==
By the way I'm glad i'm not bothering you, I don't like to do that to people
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:22, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You'll need to make several mainspace edits before you are able to edit your userpage. I don't know the exact number, but it is several. By the way, you don't need to create a new header every time you add to a talkpage. You can just click the "edit" button next to the header where the conversation started. You really only need to make a new header when starting a new conversation. {{unsigned|Crystal Talian}}
:Thanks, I will go make some edits now.
Also I was making a new header every time becuase I didn't know how to reply at that time
[[User:Chandelure1166|Chandelure1166]] 08:39, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
::No problem! And I figured it was something like that. I was just letting you know. =3 [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:43, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==Can you help me?==
Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said). So I was sort of wondering if you possibly have a simple easy task I could do to help out the wiki?
--[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] 23:00, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

==Just one last question==
Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section? I mostly noticed appearance is basically only used for pokemon and not for the human characters but I looked at another stub for a trainer class and it listed a appearance for both characters but it was in the section where game information was usually located. Well thanks for your help, bye!

== Urgent ==

== Signature move ==

Where is the problem? KyleRGiggs 09:01, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
:Wait until Force Fire replies to your question before reverting him. However, I believe the problem is that this is a move tutor move. It wasn't that only Blastoise could learn, but that the tutor refused to teach it to anyone else. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 09:02, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
::I am not reverting him actually, please check what I revert. KyleRGiggs 09:13, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

:I thought I did? I didn't copy the code, at least. I wasn't sure what the what the template code was, so I mimicked the way you call a welcome template. I guess the "subst" was unnecessary. Ah, well. Noted. Thank you. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 21:39, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

::::Sorry to butt in but, subst is usually used for message templates like <nowiki>{{subst:Userspace warning}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{subst:Preview button}}</nowiki>, not just for <nowiki>{{subst:Welcome}}</nowiki>.

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
:I understand your concern, and I agree that it is a good point. The next time I have the chance to talk with staff, I will bring up your point, and we will let you know when a decision is made on the subject. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 01:10, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

::Fair enough. Give me a heads-up on my talk page when that occurs; I constantly refer back to things here more often than anywhere else, so I'll see it. Let the staff know I'm willing to take this on myself as well, and if I do make an odd mistake somewhere, they're welcome to clean up after me where necessary. Hopefully that won't happen very often. =D [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:14, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

:First, you're welcome. =3 And do you mean the usertags? Well, first you need to do some editing so you can start your own userpage. Don't ask me how many edits you need to do, it's a hidden number. Anyway, once you do that, you can look {{bp|Usertag|here}} for information on usertags. Have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 06:06, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page. It looks like I now have the right to create pages, so could you please tell me a bit about creating them? Sorry to bother you. The editing help doesn't help. LOL! Either way, I would really appreciate it if you helped me out. [[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 21:50, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest). I don't think it would be needed for any pages at the moment, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:28, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

I've suddenly lost my ability to create pages... Why? [[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 14:24, 11 May 2013 (UTC)
:Can you tell me what the name of the page you're trying to create is? And what message it gives you when you try to create a page? You may be trying to create a page under a protected namespace. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 07:11, 12 May 2013 (UTC)

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for your help but I think I would just annoy the staff...[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 02:37, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

== Moving Sections ==

Crystal i am new and i made a new section on a page and how do i move it to a new place([[User:Icestar649|Icestar649]] ([[User talk:Icestar649|talk]]) 22:22, 19 December 2012 (UTC))
:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

Dear Crystal Tailan, thank you so much for the help and time you have given me. I hope you have a happy new year and a merry Christmas.

Technically, it's only five, since Deoxys differs via forme. Is five a small enough number out of 650 to be deemed notable?

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym.

Somehow, [[[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Shiny_Sandshrew_IV.png]]] seems like a hazard to epileptics. Or non epileptics. Or any one, really --[[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] ([[User talk:Shadowater|talk]]) 07:14, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

== Regarding Mew's name origin ==

According to Webster's Universal English Thesaurus:
mew vb confine, coop, encase, enclose, imprison;cast, change, mold, shed.
That is why I said Mew's name origin comes from the word (don't worry I'm going to change it into verb when I edit)mew.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 12:29, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
::Just because a word can mean something, doesn't mean that it does in every case. The usage of the word in this way seems unlikely (and therefore not notable) in Mew's origin. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:32, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
:::..., for example:"The chameleon mew its color."[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 05:33, 5 April 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
:::: "Mew" is more often used in reference to birds moulting. Is that an example of your own, or one from another website? Because my research indicates that it only used to indicate a change in birds. An example from the Oxford dictionary: "the {{tt|eyasses|young hawks}} clung dully to their leashes as if they were mewing", referring to hawks in moult. The definition "to confine" is also primary used in reference to birds used for hawking. This has nothing to do with the Pokémon Mew. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 05:42, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

::::::The clouds are the sky are not synonymous simply because they come from the same word. You cannot use "sky" to mean "cloud" or vice versa. The word "mew" coming from the same word as "mutant" does not mean it should be added to Mew's page in the context of "change". This word used in this way has a strong connotation towards birds, which the Pokémon clearly is not. It is notable to have ''mutant'' in Mew's name origin, but that is already there.

==Notable?==
I don't really think this page is notable. It could just be put on N's page. But I'd like more opinions. [[Typhlosion (Pokémon)|★]][[User:Jo The Marten|Jo the Marten]][[Flygon (Pokémon)|★]] [[User_Talk:Jo The Marten|ಠ_ಠ]][[Cilan (anime)|♥]] 23:45, 22 July 2012 (UTC)
:N's Pokemon are numerous, have specific stats (and even IV spreads), are a feature from Memory Link and capture of them all is required for N battle rematches and Zinzolin offering Ghetsis's translations of the Abyssal Ruins. In addition he has indeed used nearly all of these Pokemon in battles from Black/White with just small exceptions (Darmanitan and Zorua). I think it's enough to make the page notable for documenting the Pokemon. [[User:Chicobo329|Chicobo329]] ([[User talk:Chicobo329|talk]]) 01:20, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

:If we were to put all of this on N's page, it would be an eyesore. There would be too much data for one to view on N's page, and then there would be a lot of complaints. To prevent that, I put N's Pokémon received in Black 2 and White 2 on a separate page because it is a separate event that takes place, and is well worth its own page. [[User:Zorocario|Zorocario]] ([[User talk:Zorocario|talk]]) 03:31, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
::I think this article is important for a few reasons. The main reason is the proccess to obtain them, which is a chalenge in itself. Also they are essential in order to do certain events like battles with N. Also I agree that if these Pokémon were listed on his page it would become an eyesore and it would make the page very long. [[User:Lady Ariel|Lady Ariel]] ([[User talk:Lady Ariel|talk]]) 14:28, 23 July 2012 (UTC)
::I have to correct Chicobo. You don't need these Pokémon, it's a rumor (I have only {{p|Zorua}}). Yes, I got Zinzolin event, not sure if it is required, but today I catched N's dragon and Kyurem, and now he is at Ferris Wheel (apparently he is only at Friday; though Tetsu or Ruri can appear instead if the player didn't do their events. I didn't, so I had to talk to them first, then re-enter amusement park for N to appear). Anyway, after riding on the Ferris wheel, you can go battle N in his castle.

== Small thing to fix ==

In the trivia, it says that Darmanitan is the only Pokemon to have an Ability. It should say that it is the only Pokemon with a Dream World ability. --[[User:Funktastic~!|It's Funktastic~!]] ([[User talk:Funktastic~!|talk]]) 09:24, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

== Zorua/Zoroark ==

In the final battle in BW, N has a Zoroark. However, in B2W2, Rood gives you a Zorua. This implies that N had or has a Zoroark, and had the Zorua. If this page is staying, I think this should probably go somewhere on here. [[User:MatchMaster|MatchMaster]] ([[User talk:MatchMaster|Talk]] | [[Special:Contributions/MatchMaster|Contribs]]) 13:19, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
:It's not just implied. It's outright shown. You meet his Zoroark in Victory Road and it allows you to go to N's Castle. It does mention that he doesn't use the Zorua in battle, as it is the one from his childhood that is shown in BW's opening, but I'm not sure if Zoroark needs to be mentioned. --[[User:Funktastic~!|It's Funktastic~!]] ([[User talk:Funktastic~!|talk]]) 13:30, 27 July 2012 (UTC)
::It doesn't. Zoroark is completely irrelevant to this page. [[User:Zorocario|Zorocario]] ([[User talk:Zorocario|talk]]) 23:52, 27 July 2012 (UTC)

<s>You sure someone didn't [http://imageshack.us/scaled/landing/836/pokemonwhiteversion4926.png just guess]? Or maybe it was Black? (because checking on White{{tt|*|Yes, that's normal, vanilla White. Deoxys is what it is to make things easier to check, and to check Abilities otherwise uncheckable, like Klink's family Plus/Minus}}) Because that Purrloin is N's, I am sure of that, because that's the first battle. [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] ([[User talk:Marked +-+-+|talk]]) 10:00, 1 December 2012 (UTC)</s> Nevermind. Walkthrough confused me. [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] ([[User talk:Marked +-+-+|talk]]) 10:20, 1 December 2012 (UTC)

== Confusing Equation ==

The variables in the equation for the chance of one of N's Pokemon confuses me greatly. The text in the article is as follows:

'''The probability of finding one of N's Pokémon is (p-br), where p=number of Pokémon of the same species caught, b=8-number of badges obtained, and r=the rarity of the Pokémon in that area.'''

By this logic, if I have 8 badges, then b will equal 0 (and by basic rules of exponents, br will equal 0). Also, if I have never caught any of the species that I'm looking for. For example, let's say I'm looking for N's Sandile, and I've never caught a Sandile before, then p will have to equal 0. This means that the chance of finding N's Sandile, having never caught one before, and with 8 badges will be (0-0r), which would be 0, implying it is impossible to find it. However, this is simply not true. It is entirely possible to find N's Pokémon, even if that species has not yet been caught. The equation in this page needs a serious update, as it has a gaping flaw.

== Held items. ==

Can they have held items? Because some of these are the only of its species found in wild (eg. {{p|Darmanitan}} or {{p|Tympole}}) in B2W2. [[User:Marked +-+-+|Marked +-+-+]] ([[User talk:Marked +-+-+|talk]]) 09:17, 19 February 2013 (UTC)
:All of N's are most likely set to not have a chance of holding an item. [[User:Schiffy|Schiffy]] ([[User talk:Schiffy|talk]]) 21:31, 11 March 2013 (UTC)

== Gender ==

Are their genders set? [[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 13:40, 17 May 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato

===Origin===
Klang is based on interlocking gears, more specifically the {{wp|sun and planet gear}}s. The Klink line's {{Shiny}} coloration may have been based on {{wp|copper}} gears, as their noses have turned green as copper does when it oxidizes into such compounds as {{wp|copper carbonate}}, forming a patina.

====Name origin====
Klang is a corruption of ''clang'' (onomatopoeia for heavy metal striking a surface).

Gigiaru is derived from ''gear'', with ''gi'' repeated once to denote the addition of Klang's third gear.

'''Klink''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ギアル''' ''Giaru'') is a {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Klang}} starting at [[level]] 38, which evolves into {{p|Klinklang}} starting at level 49.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Klink resembles two interlocking gears with six teeth each. The teeth of the gears are a light gray, while the central regions are much darker. They have round turquoise noses and small mouths that are held wide open.

====Gender differences====
Klink are a genderless species.

===Special abilities===

===Behavior===
Once two bodies have decided to join together to form a Klink, they cannot combine with any others or they will become separated. They generate their life energy by spinning.

===Habitat===
Klink live in caves and fields in the [[Unova]] region.

According to the Unova region's {{pkmn|Professor}}, [[Professor Juniper]], the first recorded evidence of this Pokémon dates to around 100 years ago, in the [[Chargestone Cave]]; she believes that they suddenly appeared in the cave at that time.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
As Klink can generate the energy they need in order to live by spinning their gears, it is unknown if they need to eat actual food.

==In the anime==
[[File:Mannes Klink.png|thumb|200px|Klink in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Klink and its evolutions appeared under the ownership of [[Mannes]] in ''[[M14|White—Victini and Zekrom and Black—Victini and Reshiram]]''.

===Minor appearances===
Klink made its TV debut in ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]''. A swarm of them appeared inside [[Chargestone Cave]] along with a {{p|Klinklang}}.

==Trivia==
* Klink represents {{wp|June}} in the [[Unova]] [[horoscope]].

===Origin===
Klink is based on a pair of interlocking gears, more specifically either {{wp|Gear#Spur|spur}}, {{wp|Gear#Helical|helical}}, or {{wp|Herringbone gear|herringbone}} gears. The Klink line's {{Shiny}} coloration may have been based on {{wp|copper}} gears, since their noses have turned green as copper does when it oxidizes into such compounds as {{wp|copper carbonate}}, forming a patina. Klink also resembles the simplest concept of the perpetual motion machine, as it is just two gears which repeatedly spin each other.

Klink is a corruption of ''clink'' (onomatopoeia for light metal striking a surface). It may also involve ''link'', possibly referring to how the two gears are connected.

Giaru is derived from ''gear''.

'''Kyogre''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''カイオーガ''' ''Kaiorga'') is a {{type|Water}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

It is not known to [[evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

Kyogre possesses the ability to expand the oceans. In ancient times, it came into conflict with {{p|Groudon}}, a Pokémon with the ability to expand continents. In {{game3|Ruby and Sapphire|Pokémon Sapphire|s}} and {{v2|Emerald}}, Kyogre is sought after by [[Team Aqua]] as part of their plot to create more habitats for aquatic Pokémon by raising the sea level.

Kyogre is the version mascot of Pokémon Sapphire, appearing on the boxart.

Along with Groudon and {{p|Rayquaza}}, Kyogre is a part of the [[Weather trio]].

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Kyogre has two big pectoral fins or "wings", each ending with four square-shaped tips or "fingers". It has a deep blue body and a white chin area with two small spikes protruding under it. Above each eye are two white, oval-shaped spots. It has red marking stripes around the chin area, eyes, dorsal fins, torso, and on its fins. These stripes glow when Kyogre is brimming with power. The pattern or symbol on the pectoral fins somewhat resembles the letter A. The tail seems tattered with four trailing parts, the inner ones being smaller than the outer. It also has a mouth full of rarely seen, sharp, triangular teeth. Its eyes are small, yellow, and shadowed with black, like those of Groudon and Rayquaza.

====Gender differences====
Kyogre is a genderless species.

===Special abilities===
Kyogre is thought to be the creator of the seas in the [[Pokémon world]]. Kyogre is one of the very few Pokémon capable of learning {{m|Water Spout}}. Kyogre is able to learn some Electric-type moves, like Thunder. It is also the only non-Ice-type Pokémon to learn {{m|Sheer Cold}} by leveling up.

===Behavior===
Not much is known about the behavior of Kyogre, due to the fact that it is rarely seen. It is normally calm and peaceful, but if it meets its rival {{p|Groudon}} it will fiercely attack it in a fight to the death.

===Habitat===
[[File:Sea Habitat.png|thumb|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Sea Pokémon}}]]
Kyogre normally sleep deep beneath the sea in the [[Seafloor Cavern]], but have also been known to appear in the [[Embedded Tower]].

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Being a dolphin-like Pokémon, it is likely that Kyogre actively hunts for its food. It is also possible that it may feed on plankton, like some real-world aquatic animals, such as whales.

==In the anime==
[[File:Kyogre M09.png|250px|thumb|Kyogre in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Kyogre's first anime appearance was in ''[[AG097|Gaining Groudon]]''. [[Team Magma]] had captured Kyogre but didn't have the correct orb to control it. Team Magma planned to make a trade with [[Team Aqua]], who have captured Groudon. The trade was about to be made when [[Archie]] decided to use Kyogre to destroy everyone, including his fellow henchmen. The {{pkmn|battle}} between Kyogre and Groudon occurred during the following episode, ''[[AG098|The Scuffle of Legends]]''.

Kyogre appeared in the {{pkmn|movie}} ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]''. It had appeared along with countless other Water Pokémon when {{Ash}} replaced all of the [[Sea Crown]]'s crystals. However, when [[The Phantom]] attempted to make all the Water types panic using supersonic waves from his ship, Kyogre too was part of the ensuing commotion. {{mov|Manaphy|Manaphy|9}} calmed them down using {{m|Heart Swap}} to rid the Pokémon of their confusion, and some {{p|Wailord}} broke open The Phantom's ship, followed by some {{p|Chinchou}} swimming into the opening and short-circuiting the ship. Kyogre then used {{m|Hyper Beam}} on the ship, destroying it.

===Minor appearances===
Kyogre made its debut in the opening of ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''.

Kyogre makes a cameo in the introduction of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', and ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Archie Kyogre Adventures.png|thumb|125px|Kyogre in the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}} of [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Kyogre's first appearance was in ''[[PS233|VS. Kyogre & Groudon I]]''. It was awakened by Team Aqua so the waters will be expanded. [[Wattson]], [[Flannery]], and [[Winona]] tried to stop it but failed due to Team Aqua's interference, and it ended up reaching [[Sootopolis City]], where it fought for days on end with {{p|Groudon}}. {{adv|Ruby}}, having trapped {{adv|Sapphire}} in [[Wallace]]'s air car for her safety, was joined by a reformed [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]] and succeeded in quelling both the titans using the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Red Orb|Red}} and {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Blue Orb}}s and [[Norman]]'s temporary control over {{p|Rayquaza}}. However, even after Kyogre returned to the [[Seafloor Cavern]], [[Archie]] and [[Maxie]] still had plans of reawakening them to kill off anyone who'd oppose their will using the two orbs. Once they were thwarted, the arc ended. However, later on, [[Guile Hideout]] succeeded in having {{p|Jirachi}} create a Kyogre monster that nearly sank the entire {{ho|Battle Frontier}}.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
After being released from a [[Poké Ball]], Kyogre opens its mouth and squirts out {{m|Hydro Pump|a stream of water}}. The water is non-damaging, but causes characters to be knocked back with extreme force. Touching Kyogre's body will do damage. Kyogre also appears as a trophy.

==== Trophy Information ====

''"A Sea Basin Pokémon. It brought down heavy rains, which formed seas and relieved droughts. It is usually found slumbering at the bottom of an ocean trench. Its attack {{m|Sheer Cold}} is a technique so powerful, it causes any opponent it strikes to [[OHKO|faint instantly]]. In battle, it causes clouds to form and drenches the area in rain. It once had a fierce battle with {{p|Groudon}}."''

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]]: Kyogre is the focus of the second Bonus Field on the [[Sapphire Field]]. Kyogre will first use {{m|Sheer Cold}} to freeze the ball in place. It will then create {{m|whirlpool}}s to trap the ball further. Finally, it will {{m|dive}} into the water to evade being hit completely. However, air bubbles will appear where it is about to rise out of the water. Kyogre must be hit 15 times in three minutes to win. After beating the round twice, Kyogre will be captured.
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]]: Kyogre is the guardian of the [[Seven Treasures|Aqua-Monica]].

==Trivia==
[[File:Marina.png|thumb|Marina's Kyogre Costume]]
* [[Palace Maven Spenser]] has a staff with Kyogre's markings on it, and [[Sir Aaron]]'s gloves also have similar markings.
* Kyogre is tied with {{p|Palkia}} for the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} base stat of all {{type|Water}} Pokémon.
* Kyogre is tied with {{p|Mantine}} for the highest {{stat|Special Defense}} base stat of all {{type|Water}} Pokémon.
* Kyogre and its counterpart, {{p|Groudon}}, are the only Pokémon with a [[catch rate]] of 5.
* Kyogre is shown flying in the [[Legends Awakened (TCG)|Diamond & Pearl: Legends Awakened]] commercial, Pokemon Mystery Dungeon Series, and in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]].
** Additionally, if it is defeated in the wild, the game will say that it flew away.
* In [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], Marina has a costume based on Kyogre.

===Origin===
Kyogre is most likely based on the Hebrew legends of {{wp|Leviathan}}, the unconquerable primal master of the sea. Its counterparts were {{wp|Behemoth}} and {{wp|Ziz}}. Just as Kyogre is in conflict with Groudon, it was said that at the end of time Leviathan and Behemoth would start a battle that would kill them both. The Hebrew word for Leviathan is now used for whales in modern Hebrew, which may be why Kyogre's appearance also draws inspiration from whales, especially the ''{{wp|Orca}}''.
====Name origin====
Kyogre and Kaiorga may be a combination of 海 ''kai'' (ocean) and ''{{wp|killer whale|orca}}'' (a species described as a whale, but is more closely related to dolphins); it is not likely to have derived from ''{{wp|ogre}}'', which are mythological land beasts. Notably, it may also involve 海王 ''kaiō'' (king of the sea), which are the first two characters in 海王星 ''Kaiōsei'' ({{wp|Neptune}}).

However, when [[The Phantom]] attempted to make all the Water types panic using supersonic waves from his ship, Kyogre too was part of the ensuing commotion. {{mov|Manaphy|Manaphy|9}} calmed them down using {{m|Heart Swap}} to rid the Pokémon of their confusion, and some {{p|Wailord}} broke open The Phantom's ship, followed by some {{p|Chinchou}} swimming into the opening and short-circuiting the ship. Kyogre then used {{m|Hyper Beam}} on the ship, destroying it.

===Minor appearances===
Kyogre made its debut in the opening of ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''.

Kyogre makes a cameo in the introduction of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'', ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]'', and ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

==In the manga==
[[File:Archie Kyogre Adventures.png|thumb|125px|Kyogre in the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}} of [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
Kyogre's first appearance was in ''[[PS233|VS. Kyogre & Groudon I]]''. It was awakened by Team Aqua so the waters will be expanded. [[Wattson]], [[Flannery]], and [[Winona]] tried to stop it but failed due to Team Aqua's interference, and it ended up reaching [[Sootopolis City]], where it fought for days on end with {{p|Groudon}}. {{adv|Ruby}}, having trapped {{adv|Sapphire}} in [[Wallace]]'s air car for her safety, was joined by a reformed [[Magma Admin Courtney|Courtney]] and succeeded in quelling both the titans using the {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Red Orb|Red}} and {{DL|Legendary artifacts|Blue Orb}}s and [[Norman]]'s temporary control over {{p|Rayquaza}}. However, even after Kyogre returned to the [[Seafloor Cavern]], [[Archie]] and [[Maxie]] still had plans of reawakening them to kill off anyone who'd oppose their will using the two orbs. Once they were thwarted, the arc ended. However, later on, [[Guile Hideout]] succeeded in having {{p|Jirachi}} create a Kyogre monster that nearly sank the entire {{ho|Battle Frontier}}.

===[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]===
After being released from a [[Poké Ball]], Kyogre opens its mouth and squirts out {{m|Hydro Pump|a stream of water}}. The water is non-damaging, but causes characters to be knocked back with extreme force. Touching Kyogre's body will do damage. Kyogre also appears as a trophy.

==== Trophy Information ====

''"A Sea Basin Pokémon. It brought down heavy rains, which formed seas and relieved droughts. It is usually found slumbering at the bottom of an ocean trench. Its attack {{m|Sheer Cold}} is a technique so powerful, it causes any opponent it strikes to [[OHKO|faint instantly]]. In battle, it causes clouds to form and drenches the area in rain. It once had a fierce battle with {{p|Groudon}}."''

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire]]: Kyogre is the focus of the second Bonus Field on the [[Sapphire Field]]. Kyogre will first use {{m|Sheer Cold}} to freeze the ball in place. It will then create {{m|whirlpool}}s to trap the ball further. Finally, it will {{m|dive}} into the water to evade being hit completely. However, air bubbles will appear where it is about to rise out of the water. Kyogre must be hit 15 times in three minutes to win. After beating the round twice, Kyogre will be captured.
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Time and Explorers of Darkness]]: Kyogre is the guardian of the [[Seven Treasures|Aqua-Monica]].

==Trivia==
[[File:Marina.png|thumb|Marina's Kyogre Costume]]
* [[Palace Maven Spenser]] has a staff with Kyogre's markings on it, and [[Sir Aaron]]'s gloves also have similar markings.
* Kyogre is tied with {{p|Palkia}} for the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} base stat of all {{type|Water}} Pokémon.
* Kyogre is tied with {{p|Mantine}} for the highest {{stat|Special Defense}} base stat of all {{type|Water}} Pokémon.
* Kyogre and its counterpart, {{p|Groudon}}, are the only Pokémon with a [[catch rate]] of 5.
* Kyogre is shown flying in the [[Legends Awakened (TCG)|Diamond & Pearl: Legends Awakened]] commercial and in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]].
** Additionally, if it is defeated in the wild, the game will say that it flew away.
* In [[Pokémon Battle Revolution]], Marina has a costume based on Kyogre.

===Origin===
Kyogre is most likely based on the Hebrew legends of {{wp|Leviathan}}, the unconquerable primal master of the sea. Its counterparts were {{wp|Behemoth}} and {{wp|Ziz}}. Just as Kyogre is in conflict with Groudon, it was said that at the end of time Leviathan and Behemoth would start a battle that would kill them both. The Hebrew word for Leviathan is now used for whales in modern Hebrew, which may be why Kyogre's appearance also draws inspiration from whales, especially the ''{{wp|Orca}}''.
====Name origin====
Kyogre and Kaiorga may be a combination of 海 ''kai'' (ocean) and ''{{wp|killer whale|orca}}'' (a species described as a whale, but is more closely related to dolphins); it is not likely to have derived from ''{{wp|ogre}}'', which are mythological land beasts. Notably, it may also involve 海王 ''kaiō'' (king of the sea), which are the first two characters in 海王星 ''Kaiōsei'' ({{wp|Neptune}}).

'''Skitty''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エネコ''' ''Eneco'') is a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolve]]s into {{p|Delcatty}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Moon Stone}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Skitty are pink feline Pokémon with a stumpy body, short legs, a large head and slender tail with a bulky pink section at the end, terminated by three pin-like shapes. On Skitty's face is a cream-colored, crescent-shaped marking. Skitty have slit-like eyes and tufted ears with purple interiors. Because of these features, they are regarded as highly cute Pokémon.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Skitty, along with {{p|Glameow}}, {{p|Purrloin}}, and their evolutions, is able to wield the {{m|Assist}} attack, which allows Skitty to use a random attack known by any other Pokémon in its Trainer's [[party|team]]. Unlike other cat-like Pokémon like {{p|Meowth}} or {{p|Glameow}}, Skitty doesn't {{m|scratch}} or {{m|bite}}; instead, it slaps with its tail, which allows Skitty to pull off a relatively powerful {{m|DoubleSlap}} or {{m|Wake-Up Slap}}. Like most {{type|Normal}} Pokémon, Skitty can learn many elemental attacks.

===Behavior===
Skitty are fascinated by and will chase anything that moves (a personality trait that is found in "real-world" kittens). Skitty will even chase its own tail. It may also make its tail puff out in battle, along with threatening its foes with a sharp {{m|growl}}. It is said to be difficult to earn its trust.

===Habitat===

==Trivia==
* It is part of the {{egg3|Field}}, which has caused the [[HSOWA|Hot Skitty on Wailord Action]] joke.
* The cream-colored section of Skitty's face is shaped like a crescent moon, which may be related to the fact that Skitty evolves using a {{evostone|Moon Stone}}.
* Prior to {{v2|Platinum}}, a Skitty with {{a|Normalize}} could not directly damage a {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon. It now can, however, by learning {{m|Foresight}}.
* The {{DL|Escape item|Fluffy Tail}}, an item that allows escape from battle in the same way that a {{DL|Escape item|Poké Doll}} does, resembles Skitty's tail. It was likely introduced because {{p|Clefairy}} cannot be found in [[Hoenn]].
*Skitty is the only Generation III Pokémon that evolves via [[Moon Stone]].

===Origin===
Skitty is based on a {{wp|kitten}} with its tail resembling {{wp|Foxtail (diaspore)|foxtail grass}}.

====Name origin====
Skitty is a combination of ''skittish'' and ''kitty'' (slang for ''{{wp|cat}}'').

Eneco is a combination of 狗尾草 ''enokorogusa'' ({{wp|Foxtail (diaspore)|foxtail grass}}, a type of plant that Skitty's tail resembles) and 猫 ''neko'' (cat).

Nice article. Just remember that when you create pages you should link to them in other articles so that people can find them (and improve them!). If they don't get links they'll end up on [[Special:LonelyPages|this dungheap]]. Cheers, —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 11:52, 3 May 2010 (UTC)

== A question ==

Ah... hello. I have a question relating a shipping article that I started (sorry, did so without permission...) and was deleted by Magnedeth for reasons I don't quite understand; it doesn't help that no discussion items were left behind.

The ship is the SoulSilver one (Silver/Lyra), from HGSS. That one ship bothers me to no end, but I acknowledge that it's valid, so I thought it would be a good idea to start the article over at the shipping category, where I couldn't find it by that name (the only one I know for it), nor by checking the category for Silver nor HGSS pairings. And since over at the TV Tropes wiki it's no big deal for anybody to create an article, I went ahead with the idea, and let it remain a stub because it really is not my ship of choice.

Shortly thereafter, the article was deleted. I went to look at the Project Shipping page (...again; I had checked it before many times), which was the one I guessed was the relevant one for the case, and I kind of didn't find my article violating the rules, so I was left with just a question (OK, at last, this one goes for you): why was the article on the SoulSilverShipping deleted? --[[User:KayiR|KayiR]] 07:13, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

:It was deleted on the basis that the article would never be more than a stub, and all of its hints would be the same as Huntershipping. It would be like making an article for Clingyshipping (Barry/Lucas), NewRivalshipping (May/Wally) or Namelessshipping (Fire!Red/Blue) and expecting the article to be exceptionally different from (and not something that could be c/p'd to) an article on Conflictingshipping (Blue/Leaf), Loverivalshipping (Brendan/Wally), or a game!version only article of {{s|Twinleaf}}.
:Anything that could be said about SoulSilvershipping could be equally applied to Huntershipping; it's not exactly an exclusive 'ship in terms of its hints. And seeing as the opposite gender NPC doesn't crash into the rival at any point (save for the very beginning), the NPC cannot give an individual account of what they think of Silver, which takes even more individual hints away. The entire basis of either 'ship needs to come from Silver (you being the silent protag), and anything he says to Lyra is also the same thing he says to Ethan. So what's considered a hint for one must be considered a hint for the other. It'd be a pretty bias article, on that front. I'll think about if anything can be done in other ways for the couple, but as an individual article, I don't think it will stand up. Thank you for asking, though. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 14:48, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

::Mmm... And shouldn't it be better to at least acknowledge its existence, then say something like "the hints that apply to HunterShipping apply for SoulSilverShipping"? I mean, in case someone else with the same idea as me, but an actual supporter of the ship, came around and made an even bigger fuss? --[[User:KayiR|KayiR]] 17:28, 18 May 2010 (UTC)

:::We hold stricter notability standards for shipping articles. Not every pairing thought of by three fans deserves an entire page. For the ships that aren't notable for their own pages, we have lists of ships. --[[User:ElectAbuzzzz|'''electAbuzz''']][[User talk:ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']][[Special:Contributions/ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']] 17:45, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
::::Except SoulSilvershipping is ''popular'', Buzz. However, popularity isn't a reason for notability if its article cannot sustain itself properly. And if people who support it come along and wish to make it, they will likely be given the same reasons they cannot. And like I said, I'll think of something for it. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 18:06, 18 May 2010 (UTC)
:::::Don't some shipping articles have "other names for this ship" sections? Maybe a similar section could be added to HunterShipping, noting that SoulSilverShipping is the shipping name for Silver/Lyra, which goes by the same hints... I realize this could cause a fuss for a completely different reason, but it was the first thing I thought of, so I thought I'd suggest it.

How isn't Specialshipping canon?! --[[User:Shiny Noctowl|Shiny Noctowl]] 23:23, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
:....Because Kusaka didn't make it canon...? [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 23:25, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
::Red and Yellow's [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RedStringOfFate red string of fate] doesn't count? --[[User:Shiny Noctowl|Shiny Noctowl]] 23:31, 23 July 2010 (UTC)
:::That simply means they're destined in some fashion; if this were a shoujo series, I'd be more inclined to agree, but it's shounen. It ain't canon until they're confirmed feelings. Frantic did it, and even Graceful referred back to having been ex-canon and possibly future canon. Commoner is apparently one-sided, which doesn't make it canon at all in terms of romance, but canon in terms of character traits.
:::I don't take kindly to people who assume 'ships are true when they are undoubtedly not. In the mean time, the red string is still only a hint. A hint to possibly something bigger, but even without a partial confession, or a scene where it's obvious their dating, it's not canon.

== Luckyshipping ==

For the trivia you mentioned, "I was wary of the second piece of trivia before, but I've decided neither are viable. The rumor is left because its directly related to the manga's events". Did you notice it was in the trivia section? It's just some unimportant facts that people should know. It doesn't necessarily mean Trivia has to be with the Manga. Sorry to bother you about it ^^ Just wondering why it was removed.
[[User:XLuckyshipper|Luckyshipping - Because they're lucky to be together]] 00:00, 29 July 2010 (UTC)
:I did notice it was trivia (I said it was as much). I removed it because while color-linking is common in video games, it doesn't necessarily mean it's a connection to the 'ship itself. Color-linking usually has a blue-red(-black) pattern, but in this case, it's not connected to the original series, seeing as it's Red/Green+Blue, not Red/Blue+Green (and that would only be a hint for the hero/rival, because the girl is the +1 regardless of what colors you do). J!Blue is an afterthought beyond J!Red/Green.
:I also removed the trivia on BurningLeafshipping, because Red and Leaf don't exist in the same space in the games. If you choose Red, Leaf doesn't exist in-game, and vice-versa. It's commonly accepted they're meant to be the same person, as in, they're different gender variants of the same being: the hero. BurningLeafshipping has as much connection to Luckyshipping as Twinleafshipping has to Haughtyshipping: entirely different circumstances. One's relation has no impact on the other's.
:That was pretty much why. *nod* [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 00:43, 29 July 2010 (UTC)

== New Shipping ==

Excuse me, I have a very important shipping that needs to be added. I belive it is you i must talk to to create it. It is called either HatShipping or JohtoShipping, wich ever you think is better, and it is between Lyra and Ethan. Also, could it be on
Category:Shipping as well as The List of shippers? If nessacary, I will write the page for you. Its sorta like the FortuneShipping of Johto. Speaking of wich, you could probably edit piece of trivia no 8 a bit on your page. [[Pokémon HeartGold and SoulSilver Versions|Yata.]]--Dermodio 15:13, 8 August 2010 (UTC)
:Lyra/Ethan is called HeartSoulshipping, and I'm not sure at all if they even interact enough in-game for an article. If you want to try to write an article, first make it in your userspace. Something like '''User:Dermodia/HeartSoulShipping''' and if the article turns out fine, we can make it a full-fledged article. But if it doesn't make the cut, it will not be. You understand?

== My edit in the AdvanceShipping article ==

Hi, I hope it's ok that I'm putting this here and not on the AdvanceShipping discussion page, but I was afraid you wouldn't see this there, since it wasn't used in nearly 2 years...

Anyway, You removed the part I added about the Prince and King of the Sea.

I just wanted to clarify that I didn't mean to say that the titles are related is a fact, just that it's another possible support to the Manaphy sees Ash as his Father theory (I did call it a theory, after all). And Ash is called the King of the Sea, [[Ship]] states that "He who holds the Sea Crown shall become the true King of the Sea." when explaining Ash new powers (At least in the Japanese version, I didn't saw the dubbed version so I don't know if something similar was said there).

Again, I hope that I'm not doing anything wrong by putting this here. [[User:Cag|Cag]] 16:27, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
:Wild speculation without basis doesn't belong on these articles, much like it doesn't belong on any mainspace article. Context is one thing, but nothing I removed is relative to the theory. You implied the titles were related simply by using it as "support" for a theory that's pretty far-fetched to begin with and shouldn't be in the article at all (but I'm letting it stay anyway). Without a connection to the titles, you're basically inserting [[fanon]], and I've grounds to remove what isn't supported in canon.
:And if that is the line, then Ash's claim to the "King of the Sea" title is a throw-away line, BTW. Nothing more than a statement connecting back to the legend without impacting Ash's story. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 18:33, 12 August 2010 (UTC)
:: I can't exactly say I agree with you about it being baseless speculation, but I see your point (Well, since you're the project leader, I guess it doesn't really matter whether I see your point or not XD).

== Re: Disambig ==

Welp, they wanted the number of pages in the category decreasing, and it's the only way. And red links are bound to appear all the time, and they'd be eventually blue links as the time progresses, but I'll stop until I see activity on it. I kinda stepped back yesterday when I wanted to make these changes since the Disambiguation pages were red links after all. [[User:Masatoshi|'''Masatoshi: Gen.

:There's a misconception abounding, apparently. That status bar doesn't mean: they all have to have disambig links now...or else we would have done it already.

== Dub hints ==

I was wondering what your stance on dub hints are. I've seen that one user keeps removing hints from [[RocketShipping]] on the basis that they are dub-added lines and don't matter. But [[PokéShipping]] has many dub hints listed. So should dub lines be allowed or removed? Or does it depend on the situation? --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 02:26, 16 February 2011 (UTC)
:The Rocketshippers monitoring that article believe the only hints of merit are the ones from the original source. It's a bad double standard that I understand where they're coming from, since a dub can't make canon what isn't from the original, but at the same time, you're right, we do have a lot of dub-added hints in the others. Ultimately, we're catering to an English speaking audience, and I wonder in that case, maybe there should be a separate section on the article for dub stuff, since that is the version most people are familiar with. *rubs neck* But then comes being trouble in its own right, since most of the fanbase couldn't decipher crud for the raw version of their ship enough to make the comparison. Maybe a tag. ('''DUB HINT''' blah blah blah.) [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 04:03, 16 February 2011 (UTC)

== Confidence in abilities ==

Sorry for bothering you again. I just wanted to know if confidence in abilities are valid hints. Like how Cilan didn't worry too much about Pansage being sick after Iris gave it the medicine she had made.

I'm asking because a user [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Shipping:WishfulShipping&curid=119311&diff=1376056&oldid=1375854&rcid=1471630 reverted] an edit I made about Iris being confident in Cilan's abilities in [[BW019]] on the basis that "having faith is not a valid hint". Even though he says it isn't valid, hints like those are all over the place. I'd just feel better having a clear answer from you as I felt the revert was a little unjust. Especially considering what he said afterwards which is untrue of what actually happened.

Though I do admit that if I am allowed to add it back, I will word it slightly differently. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 04:21, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
:Confidence is usually taken in the subtext of how the character is presented with its said (where the person is in the frame, like a close-up, or Ash's reaction to it), and can usually be a best-judgment thing. Having not seen the episode (yet?), I couldn't tell you if it should stay or not. ._. On the other hand, if it was put in there and even if it's a valid point, is it a valid hint without the shipping goggles? [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 12:07, 1 March 2011 (UTC)
::Looking at it now, maybe this one particular isn't that strong, given how Iris put it. It was just the reason for its removal that bothered me. This is good to know that they are valid hints.

:::Well, it's definitely all about context and presentation. =) If the writers and animators want something to mean something, they will show it somehow, be it slight or obvious.

About all I've noticed mistake-wise is stuff like an extra space before a closing bracket... Thanks in advance, [[User:Bluesun|Bluesun]] 11:25, 16 April 2011 (UTC)
:Ah, it was merely that the table you provided concerning the BC/WF trainers (I assume your thoroughness in double-checking what you've provided, so I assume the table is exactly what the guide says). First thing I noticed was how the trainers in Back City own the evolutions of the pokémon they generate in White Forest. The table you provided, however, said Lena generates Azurill when she owns Gallade and Gardevoir, meaning she would generate Ralts. But since we don't have Molly's trainer info to back the difference, I was simply using the table to reference the surfing pokemon, and not using it to enter /all/ the trainers in, only leaving out the ones we don't have the team info for. =o I hope this clarifies it.

If the idea was "they were revealed at the same time," it's lost in the wording simply because that last sentence doesn't sound like an afterthought, but the main thought. Abilities being revealed is also a little too trivial. I know abilities being revealed is a big thing, but it strikes me more as really grasping to say something about the subject at hand.

== Bite ==

Another Moderator told me that Pokemon that learn a move from a pre-evolution (but do not learn it themselves) should still remain on the breeding fathers list because they are still part of their natural learnsets. I don't know if that's changed / if you've heard differently from another higher-up, but I've reverted your edit for now. Examples where this also occurs is how Vibrava / Flygon are listed under Feint, while only Trapinch learns it and Vileplume is listed under Moonlight, when only Oddish / Gloom learn it.[[User:Gymnotide|Gymnotide]] 11:09, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
:If a pokémon cannot naturally learn a move in its own, why should it be listed as a father? If you have a Vibrava, thinking you'll be able to heartscale for Feint to breed onto a Gligar, you're basically giving false information, since it's not true. If it's listed in the can-learn list, it's a proper father. But if the only Eevee you have is Espeon with Psybeam/Morning Sun/Swift/Power Swap, you aren't gonna be getting a Rattata with Bite from it. Fathers should be the most readily available to have the moves in their move pool; if an evolution does not have said move in their move pool, they cannot be a father by proxy. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 12:25, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
::Alright. I wasn't sure, which is why I wrote on your talk page.

::::Noooo!! Arcanine learns Bite in Gen III :P But... What do we do about chain-breeding then? Some Pokemon list chain-breeding targets when they have non-chained fathers as well. Should these be removed? [[User:Gymnotide|Gymnotide]] 14:06, 19 June 2011 (UTC)
:::::Ah jeez. I'm too used to thinking "start with Gen 2". Breeding should come in levels. If an egg move can be learned through a naturally-learned father, only those fathers should be in the table. If the father ''only'' learns the move through a TM/HM/tutor, that should be noted. And if the only way is through actual chain breed (regardless if their parent learned it naturally or through TM), only the earliest breeedable father should be in the table (meaning only Wailmer and no Wailord, and Mantine but no Mantyke, as examples). ....

:HatThief and Lap are 'ships that both belong in the same article, because you're dealing with the same two characters (evolution doesn't change that).

Hey I noticed you were the leader of Project Shipping, so I decided to ask you about this.

[[User:Pokedex493|Pokedex493]] 00:49, 6 December 2011 (UTC)
:Cilan/Burgundy already has an article here: {{s|Sommelier}}, so any further hints you have to contribute can be added to that. As for Lizabeth and May (Braceletshipping), it likely does not deserve its own article and should be added to either [[User:Kenji-girl/List of anime shippings|here]] or [[User:ArcToraphim/List of anime shippings|here]] (either or; they'll be melded together eventually) unless it becomes obvious that it should be its own article.

But I'm wondering if [[User:Zewis29/PikarisuShipping|you can make an exception here]]. The user who made it has been gone for a long time and it doesn't have any real evidence. Like "Pachirisu standing next to Pikachu's ear" on that DVD cover. Really...? Not saying it has to be deleted, I just have a thing about it showing up in the Shipping space categories.

== Shipping Confusion ==

Good afternoon Project Leader,I have a question to ask.
I've recently saw the pairings made in the Shipping section and came across this.
-PalletShipping: Ash and Gary-

As I've seen in the anime there is no sign of attraction between these two,actually Ash doesn't show any sign of attraction towards no character especially boys.
Also it would seem quite inappropiate to make homosexual pairings in the anime.Don't get me wrong,I am not homophobic.
In the ending I would like to say that a possible Shipping could be between {{an|Brock}} and [[Wilhelmina]] as seen in [[EP132|For Crying Out Loud]].

Thank you in advance.
Looking forward for your answer. 14:31, 14 February 2012 (UTC) DJ Wolfy

:The articles are to acknowledge belief and list what is used in canon to show why such a relationship might be possible. It's not inappropriate in the least, given the show canonically has pokémon falling in love with humans, so I'm not sure what your point is here. You aren't a Palletshipper; that's cool. Neither am I. Articles focusing on male/male and female/female won't be removed because people fear it "promotes" something (the anime barely promotes romance as is, and certainly doesn't promote most, if not ALL of the pairings made into articles); they will be removed if and only if they do not meet article standards.
:Just because you don't see it, doesn't mean others don't. It's called shipping goggles. And Sissyshipping (Brock/Wilhemina) had its time; it is acknowledge she was one of the few who liked him (and fewer still who he liked in return), and while possible, it doesn't make it any less speculative to be "possible" and remains a non-canonical belief. Like the majority of the shipping articles. I hope this answers whatever you were trying to get across. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * the [[User talk:ArcToraphim|Arc]] [[Special:Contributions/ArcToraphim|Toraph]] 16:52, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Well,I didn't meant to say it promotes anything,I meant to say it's inappropiate to be called homosexual pairings.On the other hand if they are male the pair could just be called... PokePals or Buddies,would sound more appropiate.And about Pokémon falling in love with humans,they fall for them as a pet for its master.Well,hope I didn't caused much trouble.

Thank you for your quick response. 20:09, 14 February 2012 (UTC) DJ Wolfy
:Then I'm not sure what you're getting at. 'Shipping is the belief of a ''romantic'' relationship, which means the term Palletshipping covers a homosexual pairing; to call it anything else is incorrect. Just because they are not a couple in canon doesn't make the belief of them a couple (thus "Palletshipping") any less gay. It's what it is. It's not a term for a friendship. ...And you might argue pet-to-master for Chikorita or Aipom, but most would agree that Latias was full-on in love with Ash (which is not the same thing as an adoring pet). And now I hope I've cleared up your inquiry. I'm sorry I misunderstod earlier. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * the [[User talk:ArcToraphim|Arc]] [[Special:Contributions/ArcToraphim|Toraph]] 22:54, 14 February 2012 (UTC)

Well,yes,but that may be because of Latias' possibility of gaining human shape,you can't really call it zoophilia or as it said in Pokéhistory "Evolution has come, separating humans from Pokémon, to create the first humans",meaning that humans and Pokémons ar from the same species "and one folk tale even says that there was a time when humans and Pokémon were considered one and the same".Well I still disagree with the homosexual pairing,and I say it again I'm not homophobic.I'm not against Shipping,I just wanted to clarify my confusion.Well that's it for now.Thank you for your help.

I was told you were the person to come to for this.

I was sleep deprived when the paring popped into my head and upon looking it up i got Splitshippin, the "split" being Driftveil Drawbridge

reasons

''Elesa is a fashion model and would likely have rich tastes...and Clay is rich''

That's all i could come up with without knowing if she has daddy issues.

So should it be added to the list [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] 01:08, 5 June 2012 (UTC)
:As much as I like Splitshipping personally, it's got only one interaction for a basis, and even then, all you could say at most about them canonically is "Clay trusts Elesa when it comes to trainers," but that's games only. That's not enough at all for it to have any sort of mention for it as an article or part of an article, though I'm hoping BW2 will shed more light on their relationship, if there is one.
:That said, looking at what you were talking about with KG, Splitshipping /is/ on the Shippers' List.

So the question is, IS in fact what we have labeled as normal and challenge really just "Initial battle" and "Rematch battle" (and if it is, do we even have the right levels for the second team)?

== Plasma Frigate ==

Hey I am gallade98, a new user on bulbapedia.Nice to meet you. I was just asking if you can help me finish all the Plasma Frigate information.I think i have most of it done, i just need to make sure i have all of the items and trainers correct. Thanks in advance. :D

== Typhlosion ==
You said: "The use of English "typhoon" is correct., as "fuu" =/= "phoon"."
Going to need an explanation of your reasoning there. The English word "typhoon" has common roots with the Japanese word "taifuu" and they literally mean the same thing; the "phoon" is equivalent to the "fuu" (I tried to highlight this in the edit summary). Given that the kanji in "bakufuu" (which is on its own a visibly obvious source for the name) is exactly the same as that in "taifuu", such an origin would be redundant - you could just as well explain the name "bakufuun" as simply adding an "n" to the end of an existing word. If we look at the word "typhoon" on its own, all we would be getting is the "n" sound. That could just as well come from any other word with a similar sound (some candidates may be raccoon or dragoon, but there's no real limit here), or even be just an addition for the purpose of style, with no particular meaning behind it apart from making the name distinct from the real world. If "typhoon" is going to be included as part of the Japanese name origin, it should be properly explained and justified, or attributed to an official source. There is, on the balance of evidence, no reason whatsoever to think that the word "typhoon" is relevant to the name.[[User:Drivorobotnik|Drivorobotnik]] ([[User talk:Drivorobotnik|talk]]) 04:19, 18 July 2012 (UTC)
:But since only the katakana says 'bakufuun', you're looking at the name all wrong and why that section even exists. Since the official spelling is Bakphoon, the name origin is used to explain WHY it's intended to be spelled that way and not as 'Bakufuun' (which no one has to justify since it's ''not'' romanized in such a way and is not the intended spelling; it's simply the katakana that makes it up). If the official romanization had been Bakufuun, it would have then been likely suggested to be a corruption of 'bakufuu' and a combination of 'bakufuu' and 'taifuu', since 'Typhlosion' has to get its random 'typh' from ''somewhere''. A lot of name origins also rely on looking at all the other languages to see how they were gotten, since localizers use the root origins as inspirations for their own lingual names, so since the English name is a combination of 'typhoon' and 'explosion', and 'bakufuu' means 'blast', the typhoon in Typhlosion seems to come out of nowhere, except when you realize 'Bakphoon' has the same 'typhoon' word origin. And this isn't the first time a Japanese name has been spelled with a combination of Jp and Eng words. So no, there is no reason to explain the origin of the word 'typhoon' as possible 'taifuu' when 'taifuu' has ''nothing'' to do with the spelling 'phoon' and 'typhoon' possibly does.

::It seems as though you've either misread or misunderstood. I'm not saying that "taifuu" is the origin of the Japanese name - simply that there's no need to consider an origin other than "bakufuu" as it is. The consideration that the "fuu" in "bakufuu" and the "phoon" in "typhoon" is peripheral support for this perspective - a repeated etymology makes little sense. Indeed if you look at the edit I made, I did not (and did not suggest) replacing "typhoon" with "taifuu", but rather, determined "typhoon" to not be necessary (and so neither "taifuu"). I feel that the English name is of little relevance here - although if we are to raise the point, and accept as true the premise you have presented (that English names are constructed to be distinct from, but linguistically similar to, Japanese names), then my aside may be considered, since, after all, that kanji which provides the "fuu" sound is a solid link between "typhoon" (for "Typhlosion") and "bakufuu" - but that is tangential at best. Rest assured that I am not "all wrong" - indeed I myself considered the listed romanisation, and am ready to admit that it would present a fatal flaw to my reasoning. Be that as it may, I cannot, try as I might, find any sort of reliable source for the romanisation "Bakphoon". Were such a source presented, I would be perfectly satisfied with the information currently listed - although I may make the suggestion that a more concrete policy on referencing is adopted and enforced so as to avoid such confusions.[[User:Drivorobotnik|Drivorobotnik]] ([[User talk:Drivorobotnik|talk]]) 17:00, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
:::Official romanizations of older Pokémon have been confirmed and known for ages, because they are very often used on merchandise. [http://www.webcitation.org/5rZSwnuie Here's the piece of merchandise Wikipedia cites]. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 17:31, 19 July 2012 (UTC)
::::Having trouble qualifying that source. The Wikipedia page on Typhlosion specifically lists the name as "Bakufūn", and although the page that cites the image you shared does list "Bakphoon", the reference is to a Bandai product (which, from the look of things, seems to be an obscure collectible, from the look of them they may be from gashapon toys; I am unable to find mention of this set of cards, even on Bulbapedia). This raises the question of whether, in light of the franchise's ownership, third-party (albeit presumably licensed) products are a proper source of definitive canon names. Without verification of this, the best we might say is that, on this set of cards released by Bandai, the romanisation given to Typhlosion by Bandai would appear to be based on the word "typhoon" - that, to me, does not sound like any sort of concrete statement, as it lacks authentic support from an authoritative source of canon. On a side note, that particular image seems to write Buizel's name as "Booysel", not "Buoysel" (which is what has been used) - this should raise doubts about the suitability of a low-resolution image as a source.[[User:Drivorobotnik|Drivorobotnik]] ([[User talk:Drivorobotnik|talk]]) 01:56, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
:::::They are given the official romanizations. And yeah, it probably is an obscure piece of merchandise, but the fact that it and every other piece of merchandise with a romanization of the name on it use that romanization means that it is pretty obvious it is accurate. Merchandise is the primary use for official romanizations, so we should rely on it, especially when it is a major company like Bandai that makes a lot of it. Buizel's name is chopped off in the middle; it still says "Buoysel", the bottom of a "U" just looks the same as the bottom of an "O" in that font. And my point was not the content Wikipedia has, but their source; what is actually on Wikipedia is unreliable and irrelevant if unsourced (and even if sourced, it is the source that matters). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:26, 20 July 2012 (UTC)
::::::I am somewhat confused; it seems as though none of Game Freak, Nintendo, or The Pokémon Company have used these romanisations in their products. Bandai is indeed a major company which releases a lot of merchandise, but they do not own the intellectual property behind the franchise. What that source seems to tell us (and what I acknowledged earlier) is that those particular Bandai products have been named like that - it does not, beyond allowing such a statement, seem authoritative. I would have strong reservations about regarding Bandai as any sort of official source for canon information. And, as you said, it is the source that matters.

==ShootsDownShipping==

Hi again. Sorry to keep bothering you.
Anyways, ShootsDownShipping is the ship between [[Kenny]] and [[Zoey]], and it's actually grown quite popular as a side ship in Fan fiction. I know that Bulbapedia used to have a page, but then [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Shipping:ShootsDownShipping]deleted it because of a lack of evidence; so I was wondering if I could make a new one. I believe that I can flesh it out. Empress Empoleon 18:33, 7 August 2012 (UTC)
:If you want to make a page of it, make it in your own userspace, flesh it out there, present it when you think it's done, and I'll see if it's worth ti to put in the shipspace.

I'm making a proposal of a new Shipping, my first one, I don't watch episodes that frequently, but from what I heard, this pairing is very notable. However I can't find a name since all of them have such complicated name origins. What name would you give to a Shipping between Stephan and his Sawk?

:It's called BuildUpshipping. That said, I don't believe it's notable enough to have its own page. Before putting it on Kenji's page, though, can you provide hints/evidence for it?

::I have points to consider:
*** In Sawk's debut, Stephan became eager to introduce it in his battle with Iris, during battle he showed to have teached Sawk to be immune to other Pokémon's Attraction (if you get what I'm saying), and he comforted him in the defeat.
*** In the Bell festival, Stephan chose him over Zebstrika. In the first round, Sawk refused to give his belt to Stephan, but in the end he gave anyway, in this one I think Sawk was just playing hard to get.
*** The Clubsplosion was entirely focused on Sawk and Stephan. They even hugged each other while smiling when they won.

:::The name was made up by a user; what the exact reason for choosing it was, though, I haven't the slightest, but I assume it's based off "to build up muscle/strength." The kana would ''likely'' be ケニダゲ, but I dunno if that would romanize as KeniDage or KenDage or KenyDage. That bit about Stephan training Sawk to be immune to Attract is out. You're going to need to explain point 2 much better, since what does the belt have to do with anything, and could it ''really'' be called "playing hard to get"?

Here is what I have so far for an article (for manga CrystalShipping): http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User:Magenta_Fantasies/CrystalShipping
What do you think?
[[User:Magenta Fantasies|Magenta Fantasies]] ([[User talk:Magenta Fantasies|talk]]) 01:50, 18 February 2013 (UTC)
:Well, I have to question: how is it a hint Eusine "takes Crystal's place" on the orphanage trip? Did Eusine drop the autographed card on purpose, or was it an accident (as to have pre-signed photo isn't uncommon among those who thing of themselves as super famous or whatever)? How does she worry about him in round 129? (Also, made some small edits.) Not a bad start, though. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * the [[User talk:ArcToraphim|Arc]] [[Special:Contributions/ArcToraphim|Toraph]] 15:32, 20 February 2013 (UTC)

With the "taking Crystal's place on the orphanage trip" Eusine went out of his way to do something nice for her I assumed that he dropped the card on purpose, since Eusine asks Crystal her name, but he doesn't give her his (if you don't think these are good enough hints, I'm okay if you remove it). Maybe "worries" isn't the right word, it's more like she looks at the walkie-talkie doll Eusine gave her and thinks about him.

I really hope this isn't a rude question, but could this be made into an actual article at some point? Rather, how do I go about doing this? I bet other people would have shipping hints to contribute to this page, and I've seen many shipping pages with less hints than this (also, Crystal and Eusine appear together for a relatively short amount of time compared to many other manga-related shippings).
[[User:Magenta Fantasies|Magenta Fantasies]] ([[User talk:Magenta Fantasies|talk]]) 04:54, 1 March 2013 (UTC)
:The articles you're likely thinking of are in the process of being moved and also didn't start as userspace articles; some where just quick and dirty creations left to rot, as it were. So while yes, it can and will be moved, I'd just rather it be a little fleshed out before moving it, that's all.
:Context is important. Vague wording can make anything sound like a hint, so in cases of people who don't have the manga or anime or game right out in the open for them, context explains the situation. Did Eusine think of doing something nice for Crystal by taking her place, or was it circumstantial that his choice to take her place just happens to be something nice? It's why some "evidence" on other articles comes with notes on how to interpret an action. So if context on the thinking-about-him bit and the orphanage can be expanded further on as to why it would be a hint, we'll see about keeping it. I'm still iffy on the card thing, but I'll think on it. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * the [[User talk:ArcToraphim|Arc]] [[Special:Contributions/ArcToraphim|Toraph]] 13:05, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

'''Mudkip''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミズゴロウ''' ''Mizugorou'') is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Marshtomp}} starting at [[level]] 16, which evolves into {{p|Swampert}} starting at [[level]] 36.

Along with {{p|Treecko}} and {{p|Torchic}}, Mudkip is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Hoenn]] available at the beginning of {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mudkip is a small, blue, amphibious Pokémon with a large head, wide mouth, black, beady eyes and orange, star-shaped external gills on its cheeks. It also has a light-blue fin on the top of its head and its tail fin is flexible. It moves around on all four legs, and has a light-blue underside.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Mudkip can use the fin on its head to detect subtle changes in air and water currents, and can detect nearby bodies of water. In this way, it can also detect danger. Its fin can also point in a certain direction, as seen in ''[[AG114|Date Expectations]]''. Like most Water-type Pokémon, Mudkip can {{m|Water Gun|shoot water}} from its mouth. When in the water, Mudkip breathes using the gills on its cheeks. On land, it can powerfully {{m|Strength|lift large boulders}} by planting its four feet and heaving. If it is faced with a tight situation in battle, Mudkip will become strong enough to crush rocks bigger than itself.

===Behavior===
Mudkip is more mellow than its evolutions, but is protective of its kind and, because of its powerful strength, it groups up in numbers and easily overpower its foes. Mudkip has been known to be playful, especially in mud, as well. It sleeps by burying itself in soil at the water's edge. Its large tail fin propels it through water with powerful acceleration.

===Habitat===
[[File:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon}}]]
Mudkip and members of its evolution family dwell in swamps or other wetlands, deep inside isolated islands. Soon after birth on beautiful beaches, it swims to swamps deep within islands.

===Major appearances===
====[[Brock's Marshtomp|Brock's Mudkip]]====
{{an|Brock}} has a {{TP|Brock|Marshtomp}} that he caught as a Mudkip in ''[[AG025|A Mudkip Mission]]''. Mudkip {{pkmn|Egg}}s were seen in the episode when [[Old Man Swamp]] offered to let Brock see one hatch, and Brock accepts his offer with enthusiasm. Next, a {{pkmn2|baby}} Mudkip is shown hatching from a Mudkip Egg.

====Other====
Mudkip first appeared in ''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road]]'', when {{an|May}} was asked to use a Pokémon to attack some {{p|Poochyena}}. Then, when May was asked to pick her [[starter Pokémon]], she didn't pick Mudkip after it refused to do what May asked.

During ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]'', [[Nurse Joy]] asks {{Ash}} and [[Max]] to look over a {{p|Treecko}}, {{p|Torchic}} and Mudkip while she wasn't there. The Mudkip of this group was very young and cried easily.

[[Nicholai]] has a Mudkip that appeared in ''[[AG005|In the Knicker of Time!]]''. In ''[[AG048|ZigZag Zangoose]]'', it was revealed to have evolved to a {{p|Marshtomp}}.

===Minor appearances===
A Mudkip was used by one of the students of the [[Pokémon Trainer's School]] in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.

A Mudkip appeared in ''[[AG033|Now That’s Flower Power!]]'' as a Pokémon in the Contest.

{{main|Mumu}}
In Pokémon Adventures, when {{adv|Ruby}} was attacked by {{adv|Sapphire}}'s {{p|Torchic}}, [[Professor Birch]] told him to look in his briefcase, to pick up the Poké Ball with a blue Pokémon and to throw it. The Poké Ball released a Mudkip and he nicknamed it Mumu. At the beginning, Ruby was disappointed with it because it wasn't as attractive as his other Pokémon and it couldn't participate in any [[Pokémon Contest]]. He tried with different conditions and then decided that [[Tough Contest]]s would be perfect for it. Mumu eventually evolved into a {{p|Marshtomp}} and then into a {{p|Swampert}}.

=== [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] ===

Mudkip appears as a random trophy.

''"A Mud Fish Pokémon. It has fins on its head and tail. The fin on its head acts like a radar dish to read its surroundings, and its tail fin increases its swimming speed. The gills on its cheeks allow it to move about in water. It's very strong for its size--it can even lift big boulders. It burrows into muddy watersides to sleep. Mudkip evolves into Marshtomp."''

Nice touch with the line about it not evolving given all the speculation about Lucario. ([[User:Argy|Argy]])

These pages deal with known data, not random speculation. On top of that, there is no history of any legendary Pokemon evolving.
--[[User:Jshadias|Jshadias]] 00:14, 2 Mar 2005 (UTC)

And as for the games, yes, they made it quite clear in the games that Mewtwo is unique and one of a kind (the stadium games and the Mystery dungeon series don't count [and by stadium games, I mean just Pokemon Stadium ZERO (the unreleased japanese version), Pokemon Stadium, and Pokemon Stadium 2.

Well, they never had it appear in Gold/Silver, they never had it appear in the Colosseum games, they never even had it appear in the Ranger games. the only games it appeared in besides Gen I and it's remakes is the Mystery Dungeon series and the Stadium games, which really don't count in regards to the games canon (heck, the Mystery dungeon games don't even take PLACE on the main Pokemon world.). and of course they didn't mention making another mew clone, because Mewtwo blew up the place before they could even record the idea.

People can make up theories of what they assume is truth but assuming is not truth and fictional characters don't have alternative sides because they are not real.

:: To be honest, as much as we say giving birth is a metaphor, etc. At the end of the day, things stated as fact in the anime are NOT considered to be true in the games. In the games, disregarding all evidence from the anime, we are told nothing about Mewtwo's creation other than that it was cloned (I think this first appears in Yellow's dex, but I'm not sure) and that Mew gave birth to it. We also know that these two events are possible to both be true. Additionally, I seem to recall the information about Mew giving birth to Mewtwo being written in someone's log of events - it seems unlikely that they would use metaphors in a log of events.

The Mewtwo in Special is actually quite a prominent character, having appeared in the series which starred Red as a main character.

Even after that, in the FRLG saga, Mewtwo actually becomes part of the crew, having defeated R once, rescued Green's parents, beating the shit out of Deoxys and being the main reason why Red, Blue, Green, Yellow and Silver were turned to stone.

== false info? ==

The article says mewtwo is the first pokemon to use a genII move, but i think that's false.

for one thing I'm pretty sure Mewtwo doesn't use that spherical attack until his battle with mew.

From how Mewtwo acts using psychic in Stadium, and given that psychic can be in a spherical form it might just be psychic he's using.

Donphan uses Rollout at the opening battle. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 19:37, 25 May 2009 (UTC)

:Well how are you so sure Donphan is using Rollout? We have just as much evidence that it uses Rollout as Mewtwo's using Shadow Ball: on the basis that it looks like that traditional attack. Also, SSBM Mewtwo, who is obviously based on the movie Mewtwo, has Shadow Ball as an attack.

:A lot of what we get for the behavior sections comes straight from the anime or manga. Barely any of it is explained in the games for any Pokémon. The only reason Amber is mentioned for Mewtwo is because her loss is part of what psychologically changed his way of thinking.

== Trivia Too Long ==
I think the trivia on Mewtwo's page is way too long, and could really use a trim-down. Especially things that are not unique to Mewtwo, like noting that it and Rayquaza are the only Pokémon with their base stat total not to have signature moves. I'd be willing to go in and clean this up, along with trivia sections on the rest of the species pages, if the admins would like me to. --[[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantom]][[User talk:Phantomjunkie|Junkie]] 07:11, 23 July 2010 (UTC)

== Nocturnal? ==

At the end of Mewtwo Returns, it was stated that Mewtwo had chosen to roam freely at night. Being the only one, this would make its species nocturnal. Should this be added to the behavior section? --'''[[User:EpicShadow|Epic]][[User talk:EpicShadow|Shadow]]''' 03:58, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
:Could be he just wanted to remain inconspicuous. [[Typhlosion|★]][[User:Jo The Marten|Jo the Marten]][[Flygon|★]] [[User_talk:Jo The Marten|ಠ_ಠ]] 03:59, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
:: Ihave no doubt that was the reason. But even with a reason it still makes him nocturnal. Most nocturnal creatures are nocturnal because they don't want to be found by things that can harm them just like humans could harm Mewtwo.--'''[[User:EpicShadow|Epic]][[User talk:EpicShadow|Shadow]]''' 04:04, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
:::Even still. That's the anime Mewtwo. Not all Mewtwo in general. [[Typhlosion|★]][[User:Jo The Marten|Jo the Marten]][[Flygon|★]] [[User_talk:Jo The Marten|ಠ_ಠ]] 04:09, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
::::The games Pokédex entries refers to Mewtwo as "it", meaning only one just like the anime and manga. The fact that you can cpture more than one is a paradox that is traditionaly ignored.--'''[[User:EpicShadow|Epic]][[User talk:EpicShadow|Shadow]]''' 04:17, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
:::::Well the anime and the games are different. [[Typhlosion|★]][[User:Jo The Marten|Jo the Marten]][[Flygon|★]] [[User_talk:Jo The Marten|ಠ_ಠ]] 04:24, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
:::::: Like I said the Mewtwo in the games are a PARADOX, meening they technicaly should not be there. I would also like to point out that the article refers to Mewtwo as it as well.--'''[[User:EpicShadow|Epic]][[User talk:EpicShadow|Shadow]]''' 04:36, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
:::::::Yes, the article refers to Mewtwo as it. That's because in all canons there is only one of them. It doesn't mean that it is the same one in all the canons. What applies to anime Mewtwo does not necessarliy apply to Adventures manga Mewtwo or game Mewtwo. Unless Mewtwo was developed by Fuji alongside a child, in solitary confinement by Blaine and born by Mew all at the same time. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 04:43, 14 December 2010 (UTC)
::::::::Even so, I think it is still notable. Could we still put it in if we clearly stated that it was an instance in the anime only? All we would have to do is stick "In the anime" at the begining.--'''[[User:EpicShadow|Epic]][[User talk:EpicShadow|Shadow]]''' 15:04, 14 December 2010 (UTC)

== Name Origin ==

How could have Mewtwo's name come from Mew when Mew was added in at the last moment of Red and Green's development? [[User:Metalmallow|metalmallow]] 09:49, 28 January 2011 (UTC)
:The Pokémon design process is complex and it's entirely possible that Mew or Mewtwo could have come first and one's name could or could not be derived from the other —[[User:Lord mada|Mada-sama]] ([[User talk:Lord mada|Talk to me!]])— 10:36, 28 January 2011 (UTC)

== Mewtwo Rumor ==

I've heard of a rumor before that if you try to *ahem* "catch" Mewtwo in a regular Pokeball, all of the Pokeballs in your bag will break. Anyone else on the subject?
 [[User:Pgj1997|Pgj1997]]
:It's a lie. There are users here who have sucessfully caught Mewtwo in a regular Poké Ball. Also, please don't put a linebreak before your signature. A space is fine. Thanks. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 08:10, 31 January 2011 (UTC)

== Incorrect Trivia ==

Mewtwo has not got the highest base stat total of all psychic-type pokemon as arceus with a plate has 720. {{unsigned|Mattrules161}}
:I think the trivia entry was supposed to mean he has the highest base stat total of all natural psychic-type pokémon. Arceus doesn't quite count since it needs a psychic plate to even become psychic type, and is by default a normal type. [[User:Weedle Mchairybug|Weedle Mchairybug]] 14:45, 21 April 2011 (UTC)

== Niue Coin ==

About the trivia for the Niue coin, I found this one, a ten-dollar coin: www.ngccoin.com/poplookup/WorldCoinPrices.aspx?category=105024&worldcoinid=272241
But searching on this same site, other Niue coins featuring Mewtwo, with different values (1 dollar and 50 dollars, I think) appear too.
Also, other Pokémon were featured according to this site and to a quick search on eBay: http://search.reviews.ebay.com/?satitle=pokemon&ucat=6213&uqt=r
These pokémon also have different types of coins each.
How should this be portraited in the trivia? [[User:KurowaSan|KurowaSan]] 19:10, 22 November 2011 (UTC)

== Question about Origin ==

I noticed this in the "Origin" section: "Mewtwo looks strikingly similar to {{wp|Giygas}}'s {{wp|Mother (video game)}} appearance, because some of the people who had previously worked on the Mother series also worked on the Pokémon series." I was wondering if this was okay. I thought type of thing was considered speculation? I was going to remove it, but I remember seeing some discussions about it in the past and thought I would ask first. Thanks! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 07:22, 29 January 2012 (UTC)
:I see the conversation on this subject earlier on the page now. How did I miss that? "Giygas" is in the header . . . Anyway, it doesn't seem to have been resolved. So . . . anyone? [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 15:11, 3 February 2012 (UTC)
::I don't see the resemblance myself, and, like someone said up there, at that size it's hard to make anything out. I don't know if it's notable or speculation or whatever, but at the very least I'll reword it so it's not so definite. --[[User:Darth Zekrom|'''Darth''']] [[User talk:Darth Zekrom|'''Zekrom''']] 16:10, 3 February 2012 (UTC)

==Myuutu?==
I think the kana reads Myuutu. [[User:JacobTheDoduo|JacobTheDoduo]] 23:21, 18 March 2012 (UTC)
:It's Myūtsū technically but Mewtwo is the trademarked romaji. --[[Tracey Sketchit|'''ケンジ''']][[User talk:Kenji-girl|'''の''']][[User:Kenji-girl|'''ガール''']] 23:23, 18 March 2012 (UTC)

==Blaine?==
"''where the scientists, including Blaine and Dr. Fuji, performed horrific gene-splicing experiments''"

Where in the games is any of that stated? I never played FireRed or LeafGreen so if it's in one of those then nevermind, but in Red / Blue / Yellow the only mention of Dr. Fuji in regard to the lab is that he's the lab's founder and there is absolutely no mention of Blaine in regard to the lab or Mewtwo. It seems to me that someone is mixing facts from the anime (Dr. Fuji) and facts from the manga (Blaine) with information from the games. [[User:Dannyjenn|Dannyjenn]] 00:31, 20 March 2012 (UTC)

==16th Movie==
Serebii says that Mewtwo was featured in the [[M16|16th Pokémon Movie]] [[Genesect]] was in. {{unsigned|TheShinyMew}}
:We need further evidence than that before anything can be added here. Serebii is a fansite as well, and is not a valid source for adding information here. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 21:33, 12 February 2013 (UTC)

::::No any speculation crackdown now, could be unprotected. Yuyama said that not the same one with the anime one already. KyleRGiggs 20:00, 2 March 2013 (UTC)

== Forgotten Moves ==

I'm sure I'm not the first person to notice that even though Mewtwo's movesets from Generation I show that it starts off with Confusion and Disable, it is impossible to legally own one knowing those moves. They get replaced by two of the four it would have learned by level 70, the lowest possible level it can be obtained in. I just think it's worth making a note of that somewhere, since relearning moves wasn't possible before Pokémon Stadium 2. [[User:X-master|X-master]] ([[User talk:X-master|talk]]) 01:40, 3 March 2013 (UTC)

== New Forme ==

'''Meloetta''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''メロエッタ''' ''Meloetta'') is a {{Type|Normal}} [[legendary Pokémon]].

While it is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any Pokémon, it has a [[Form differences#Meloetta|second Forme]] activated by using the [[move]] {{m|Relic Song}} in battle. Its original Forme, '''Aria Forme''', will then become '''Pirouette Forme'''.

Meloetta was leaked on a poster of [[M15]] on February 26, 2012, and it was officially revealed by [[Oha Suta]] on March 1, 2012.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Meloetta seems to be a femininely anthropomorphic figure with {{wp|Bar (music)|musical bar}}-style streaks in its hair, {{wp|note value|quarter notes}} (♩) for its arms and hands, and pupil-less eyes resembling whole notes. It has a jewel on its forehead and a black headpiece that seems to be shaped like a {{wp|clef|treble clef}} which doubles as an attached microphone such as one often used by singers. Its ovular head seems to be ⅓ its body's height and about half its height in width. In its Aria Forme, it has light blue eyes and flowing, wavy hair with light-blue ovals that resemble whole notes. In its Pirouette Forme, it has {{wp|red hair|auburn hair}} that seems to be stylized in a high bun and red eyes. In either Forme, its midriff and eyes match its hair.

====Gender differences====
Meloetta is a genderless species.

===Special abilities===
According to artists in Unova, Meloetta's beautiful music and dance inspired many works of art, music, and songs. This made the Pokémon popular among both musicians and dancers.

Meloetta is able to change forms when it uses the move {{m|Relic Song}}, which changes its form from Aria Forme to its Pirouette Forme, or vice versa. In its Aria Forme, it is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Psychic}}-type Pokémon; in its Pirouette Forme, it is a dual-type {{2t|Normal|Fighting}}-type Pokémon. It reverts to Aria Forme when [[Recall|switched out]] or when the battle ends. Like many other legendary Pokémon, Meloetta is capable of becoming invisible.

===Behavior===
In its Aria Forme, Meloetta can sing beautiful songs. While in its Pirouette Forme, Meloetta can perform graceful dances.

===Habitat===

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==History==
Meloetta once played {{m|Relic Song|a song}} and danced so lightly, it filled people's hearts with joy. However, when sorrow darkened the world, Meloetta lost the melody. At the same time, its red shoes were lost somewhere.

Upon entering the cafe in [[Castelia City]], a guitarist, who knows of the story, remembers Meloetta's melody. Upon playing it, Meloetta remembers the song that it had danced to.

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
====[[Meloetta (anime)]]====
Meloetta made its debut in ''[[BW082|An Epic Defense Force!]]'' (although it had previously appeared in [[PK23]]). Later, in ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]'' it appeared in front of [[Cynthia]]'s car, having been attacked by [[Team Rocket]]. It follows {{Ash}}, {{an|Iris}}, {{an|Cilan}}, and Cynthia to [[Undella Town]] and appears again in ''[[BW086|Piplup, Pansage, and a Meeting of the Times!]]''. It openly reveals itself and even sings after becoming very comfortable around Ash and his friends.

By ''[[BW096|Meloetta and the Undersea Temple!]]'', Meloetta had become comfortable enough to challenge one of Ash's Pokémon to a battle; however, the battle was interrupted by [[Ridley]] who mistakenly believed Ash was attacking it. {{an|Giovanni}} and [[Team Rocket]] later force Meloetta to surrender after threatening Ash and {{AP|Pikachu}}. It's final appearance thus far is in ''[[BW097|Unova's Survival Crisis!]]'' when it decides to go home with Ridley.

==Trivia==
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as [[Form differences#Meloetta|Pirouette Forme]] Meloetta.
* Pirouette Forme Meloetta has the highest {{stat|Speed}} and [[base stat]] total of all {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.
* Meloetta is the only Generation V Pokémon able to learn {{m|Perish Song}}.
* The red shoes mentioned in the history may be a reference to the Hans Christian Andersen fairytale ''{{wp|The Red Shoes (fairy tale)|The Red Shoes}}''.
* Meloetta was leaked on a poster for [[M15]] during the release of {{v2|Black and White|s|2}}.
* Meloetta is the first event-exclusive Pokémon to make its anime debut outside the {{pkmn|movies}}.

===Origin===
Meloetta's Aria Forme resembles a typical singer with the black headpiece acting like a headset microphone, while the Pirouette Forme resembles a ballerina wearing a tutu and its "hair" curled up in a bun. In this Forme it also shares elements from Spanish {{wp|Flamenco}} dancers. Meloetta's headpiece resembles a stylized {{wp|clef|treble clef}}. It may be also based on a {{wp|muse}}, a mythological entity to whom was attributed, in Ancient Greece, the ability to inspire artistic creation.

====Name origin====
Meloetta may be a combination of ''{{wp|melody}}'' and ''{{wp|pirouette}}'' (a type of movement in ballet). ''Etta'' is also a common, feminine Italian suffix meaning ''little'' and may refer to Meloetta's feminine appearance and diminutive size. It may literally mean ''little melody'', as Italian words are commonly used for musical directions and descriptions. ''Etta'' could also have derived from the famous jazz singer {{wp|Etta James}}.

{{wp|Aria}} is a term now used almost exclusively to describe a self-contained piece for one voice usually with {{wp|orchestral accompaniment}}, and is commonly used in {{wp|opera}}.

Pirouette—French for ''to whirl''—is a controlled turn on one leg, starting with one or both legs in plié and rising onto demi-pointe (usually for men) or pointe (usually for women). The non-supporting leg can be held in retiré position, or in attitude, arabesque level or second position.

== Spam ==

Is it considered spam if a sockpuppet goes to a talk page and put something there that led the original user to get blocked in the first place? I was kind of wondering that regarding what this MichaelXD002 user did. [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 15:21, 30 October 2012 (UTC)
:Yes, I've seen sockpuppets' comments being removed in the past.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 15:24, 30 October 2012 (UTC)

Dennou, did you reset your talk page? Every old message you had is gone. [[User:Mikoro|Mikoro]] ([[User talk:Mikoro|wanna talk?]]) 14:47, 1 November 2012 (UTC) 10:47, 1 November 12 (UTC)
:Yes, I [[Bulbapedia:Talk page policy#Archiving user talk pages|archived]] it. The old talk page is [[User talk:Dennou Zenshi/2011-2+2012-1|here]] but you can't edit it.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 16:04, 1 November 2012 (UTC)
::Okay, just wondering. But anyway, I have a favor to ask. I have become a better Bulbapedia user since my creating rights were taken away, but now I have a bigger goal in mind. I want to become an administrator like you. Right now, my mission is to prove to every administrator that I have what it takes by fixing the incomplete synopses for all articles. I just wanted advice, and I came to the two best administrators I know, you and Jo the Marten. How exactly did you guys get to be administrators?

:::The link that Jo posted explains it well. And sorry to be blunt, but you have to become a way better and more active editor to be considered to become an admin.

::::Understood. But seriously, you don't have to be a smart Alec. I came to you for help, not insults. And would an inactive editor fix the synopsis for two episodes, add a helping picture for a status effect, add examples to the Pokémon controversy page, AND reprimand other amateur users for violating the rules? I don't think so. I agree I could do more, but I think "inactive" is an overstatement. [[User:Mikoro|Mikoro]] ([[User talk:Mikoro|wanna talk?]]) 18:16, 2 November 2012 (UTC) 14:15, 2 November 12 (UTC)
:::::Okay, you're actually kinda active. Anyway, I didn't say you'll never become an admin. I meant that you have to become a more diverse editor and make at least hundreds of good/helpful edits. I became an official junior admin after making about 9000 ''mainspace'' edits, more than 1000 talk page edits, receiving {{bp|Golden Bulbasaur Award|Golden Eevee and Pikachu}}, and being a temporary junior admin for several months.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:22, 2 November 2012 (UTC)

== Help in Floccesy Ranch ==

You recently edited floccesy ranch, removing the cleanup tag i added back when the encounter rates were bad.
There was a discussion on the talk page about the encounter rates and how the original ones there were wrong.
I put some placeholder ones in, which were then replaced by rarities from the official strategy guide.
They have since been replaced by someone who has not bothered to comment on the talk page, and thus you thought the cleanp was resolved when those who havn't read the talk page put values in.
Could you help, and reconsider the cleanup tag?----[[User:Aquatix|'''Aquatix''']] ''([[User talk:Aquatix|talk to me!]])'' 12:00, 5 November 2012 (UTC)
:I can't really help with the encounter rates because I don't have access to the game data and I don't own any guidebooks. I removed the {{template|cleanup}} tag because the correct tag for that situation is the {{template|incomplete}} tag, which was already in the article.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 13:50, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

==John Loeffler==
I undid the hiding, and put "according to john loeffler." all admins, leave me alone about this, because i was asked to put this there by John himself. the facebook accuont said that his name was John Loeffler, he lived in New York city and that he is a composer and singer, so that's proof that it's the real one. i do not know how to send links of the facebook conversation to you without revealing my realk name, (Christian Woods is my sudanym, like how Ted Lewis is Ed Paul) but i do know this: John Loeffler is going to try to check on this page within 24 hours, and i want him to see to his satisfaction that i did the edit, just to show that i kept my word, mmkay?
side note: You can send Kenji girl after me, but i know that i'm not wrong, and that i'm not operating against pollicy, i swear on it. I'm nearly taking a request and allowing the information to be given out. it's not like john said "But don't tell anyone, it's a big big secret!" or anything, so don't try and make it a secret, mmkay? mmkay? thanks. and admins, i don't want any infractions because of this. i just want it to get out there and to let people see it, just as john asked me to. thanks.

== Dragon Rage in BW085 ==

Why not include that error about Dragon Rage being a critical hit? Who determines which aspects of the games are adopted into the anime and which aren't? Because it seems like a helluva lot else does. In fact, we'd have to go back and remove roughly half of all errors ever added because the anime ''may'' work under different rules. The anime, which I need not remind, is based on the games. Heck, for all we know, the anime writers ''intentionally'' wrote that Electric doesn't affect Rock-types when they made that "error" about a half-dozen times in the first season. We should just go ahead and say that indeed, a Rhyhorn is vulnerable to Electricity in its horn and mouth. It's the same logic (rather, lack thereof). Water beats Fire, Pikachu's Static Ability causes Paralysis, and Dragon Rage does 40 damage. Even something as specific as a Pokémon's level is mentioned several times. Why does one person set the precedent for a piece of noteworthy trivia? I don't care if he or she's an admin, or even if there is a circle of admins who agree with him/her, clearly there are four people who made the effort to note that information. Let's not forget either that whatever precedents the Bulbapedia staff have established are not automatically what the writers intended. Also, you'd think that instead of complaining each time the same reasonable error was added, you guys could add a handy-dandy  (hidden message) in the Error section. --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|IWannaBeTheVeryBest]] ([[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|talk]]) 07:10, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
: So apparently someone had the sense to put that message in after the fourth person added the error. Clap-clap. Here's another problem: the writer says that it's because Cilan uses a "completely different term"? I'm sorry, maybe he said something else in Farsi, but in ''English'' he said it "looks like a critical hit!" Come on. I don't even need to point out how this person's definition of "completely different" is laughable. --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|IWannaBeTheVeryBest]] ([[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|talk]]) 07:18, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
::Eh, the ''English'' version is just a dub. In the ''original'' Japanese version, he just said "Kibago hit the target" (this can be mentioned in the Dub edits section). Also, Dragon Rage obviously works differently in the anime than it does in the games, because there are no HPs (and levels were quickly retconned to not exist). Or do you think that Gary's Golem had less than 40 HP? If you still disagree, you should contact {{u|Kenji-girl}}.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 14:09, 16 November 2012 (UTC)

== Actually ==
I did not assume Escavalier had Twineedle, I said it because Serebii himself said that it was used and that's usually a pretty good confirmation considering his status. [[User:Playerking95|Playerking95]] ([[User talk:Playerking95|talk]]) 15:26, 30 November 2012 (UTC)
:Serebii should never be used as a source (you've been told it before), and he makes lots of move errors in his Character Bios because '''he''' assumes most moves he adds.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 15:58, 30 November 2012 (UTC)

== Thanks for that fix ==

I noticed you fixed the redlinks in my pokémon subpage. I should have known, but I am a mere beginner when it comes to templates; had to use a sample, but what I used for a reference never had a nickname parameter. Hopefully I'll remember that when I add more Pokémon to that page. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 19:47, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

== Since you can apparently use Japanese... ==

Do you think you can {{tt|translate|translate as in eg. translate マサゴタウン to Masago Town (Sandgem Town)}} [[Talk:List of Ribbons in the games#Japanese names.|some]] of this? (or just put in the characters, because it's pretty late here so I am low on time and I wouldn't rather have enough time to {{tt|type|READ: look at Wikipedia, copy correct character and paste here, do that with next character, rinse and repeat until all the characters are inserted, then go to the next ribbon, and so on}}). These are only missing Japanese names (though some have just Japanese names without these being translated).

== Too large? ==

For a while now, I was looking after the [[Pokémon.com online games]] article, as no one seemed to update it. It is still incomplete (needs info on a recently released game, etc.). Just now, I noticed something: it surpasses the [[Décor]] article, which has an oversize notice, by around 12k bytes, yet the former has neither an oversize notice nor an indication of suggesting separate pages. Also, I plan on incorporating some [[User:Berrenta /Trophy|trophy tables that are in the works]], which would make the article larger. Do you think there should be subpages for trophies and/or pre-revamp games? I asked on the article's talkpage and did not get a response yet. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 18:46, 15 December 2012 (UTC)
:The Décor article has the oversized and merge tags because it has so many templates that some of them can't even be seen. The Pokémon.com games has almost zero templates so we don't have to split it and you can add the tables there when they are ready.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 19:24, 15 December 2012 (UTC)

== Matthew Charles' Return to the Pokemon Dub ==

Excuse me, but I just wanted to say I think it's notable that Matt Charles is back. Sure he only played Sid in the 4Kids dub, but he's back now and he was a prominent 4Kids dub VA in other shows like Marc Thompson, Dan Green, and others. I'm personally very glad he's back and it brought a smile on my face to see him return.{{unsigned|Joshellwu}}
:It would be notable if he used to voice a major character or many minor characters in Pokémon; it can't really be said he "returned" when he voiced only one one-off character.

== Quick Question ==

I see how Forretress' trivia was unnotable even though characters in the anime don't usually get anything other than standard Poké Balls. In my defense it was inspired by the first trivia point in Ash's Totodile's Trivia Section. So I'm just honestly wondering why isn't that unnotable as well? [[User:AeroWind|AeroWind]] ([[User talk:AeroWind|talk]]) 19:39, 14 March 2013 (UTC)
:It's more notable because Ash is the main character and he has about three times more Pokémon than Brock. Also, pieces of trivia that say "one of the few" are generally unnotable while the Totodile trivia says he's the only one in something.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 19:46, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

== Reverted edit ==

Hello. I know this is a bit late, but on March 4, you reverted my edit here [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Outsider_Pok%C3%A9mon&diff=1859165&oldid=1859160] because "cheating-related things aren't notable". I believe they are. There is an entire article on cheating, in fact, there are five! (Category:Cheating) Hacking is also repeatedly mentioned [[Ilex Forest shrine|here]], and [[List of glitch Pokémon|here]]. That's just what I remember, I'm sure there's a lot more references to cheating/hacking. Apparently, cheating ''is'' notable here.

thanks for fixing my trivia on the May (anime) article. I'm suffering from a double ear infection, with a headache from it. And the Antibiotics are causing me to have Insomia. I was up close to 30 hours when I added that Trivia.

I think at some point I got May and Dawn fused since I was going between their and Iris articles to check on their Pokemon teams for starters.

Thanks for catching my mistake on {{TCG ID|Vending|Pidgeotto|S3}}. To be honest, I'm rather frazzled and distracted by the sudden interest in the [[TCG move errors]] page. Our database is no where near ready to tackle that page fully and accurately, and I'm just kind of disappointed no one came to talk to me about my plans for that page before doing it. (There are 3 tasks I wanted to have finished before that move error page was even considered, since they would make that undertaking so much easier.)

== Pokemon shipwrek ==
In the Hindi dub instead of "Lataak ki Rassi" {Vine Whip} they by mistakenly called it "Dhaga chodo" which literally means
release thread.So I am not objecting you as you are a Senior Administrator but as I know Hindi that move was said wrong.
So I think that your edit should be reverted as I gave the correct information and I am telling you that after that in NO Hindi
dub Vine Whip was called "Dhaga Chodo" from then it was always called "Lataak ki rassi" so I think that was a dub mistake
because not before not afterwards not ever it was called dhaga chodo but I am NOT objecting you but I think you should one
more time think over it.

== Help in Floccesy Ranch ==

You recently edited floccesy ranch, removing the cleanup tag i added back when the encounter rates were bad.
There was a discussion on the talk page about the encounter rates and how the original ones there were wrong.
I put some placeholder ones in, which were then replaced by rarities from the official strategy guide.
They have since been replaced by someone who has not bothered to comment on the talk page, and thus you thought the cleanp was resolved when those who havn't read the talk page put values in.
Could you help, and reconsider the cleanup tag?----[[User:Aquatix|'''Aquatix''']] ''([[User talk:Aquatix|talk to me!]])'' 12:00, 5 November 2012 (UTC)

== Dragon Rage in BW085 ==

Why not include that error about Dragon Rage being a critical hit? Who determines which aspects of the games are adopted into the anime and which aren't? Because it seems like a helluva lot else does. In fact, we'd have to go back and remove roughly half of all errors ever added because the anime ''may'' work under different rules. The anime, which I need not remind, is based on the games. Heck, for all we know, the anime writers ''intentionally'' wrote that Electric doesn't affect Rock-types when they made that "error" about a half-dozen times in the first season. We should just go ahead and say that indeed, a Rhyhorn is vulnerable to Electricity in its horn and mouth. It's the same logic (rather, lack thereof). Water beats Fire, Pikachu's Static Ability causes Paralysis, and Dragon Rage does 40 damage. Even something as specific as a Pokémon's level is mentioned several times. Why does one person set the precedent for a piece of noteworthy trivia? I don't care if he or she's an admin, or even if there is a circle of admins who agree with him/her, clearly there are four people who made the effort to note that information. Let's not forget either that whatever precedents the Bulbapedia staff have established are not automatically what the writers intended. Also, you'd think that instead of complaining each time the same reasonable error was added, you guys could add a handy-dandy  (hidden message) in the Error section. --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|IWannaBeTheVeryBest]] ([[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|talk]]) 07:10, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
: So apparently someone had the sense to put that message in after the fourth person added the error. Clap-clap. Here's another problem: the writer says that it's because Cilan uses a "completely different term"? I'm sorry, maybe he said something else in Farsi, but in ''English'' he said it "looks like a critical hit!" Come on. I don't even need to point out how this person's definition of "completely different" is laughable. --[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|IWannaBeTheVeryBest]] ([[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|talk]]) 07:18, 16 November 2012 (UTC)
::Eh, the ''English'' version is just a dub. In the ''original'' Japanese version, he just said "Kibago hit the target" (this can be mentioned in the Dub edits section). Also, Dragon Rage obviously works differently in the anime than it does in the games, because there are no HPs (and levels were quickly retconned to not exist). Or do you think that Gary's Golem had less than 40 HP?

I see how Forretress' trivia was unnotable even though characters in the anime don't usually get anything other than standard Poké Balls. In my defense it was inspired by the first trivia point in Ash's Totodile's Trivia Section. So I'm just honestly wondering why isn't that unnotable as well? [[User:AeroWind|AeroWind]] ([[User talk:AeroWind|talk]]) 19:39, 14 March 2013 (UTC)

hello dennou i am viv again as i told to u that i am very new to editing bulbapedia i want to ask u that how can i become an administrator in bulbapedia and how will i come to know that i am now an administrator i also want to know wy i can not edit ASH KETHUM page plz tell sir{{unsigned|Viv}}
:The "official" answer is {{bp|FAQ#How do I become an admin?|here}}. Also, I'm sure you won't become an admin if you keep using that kind of language. [[Ash Ketchum]] is protected from new users because it's an important page and is often vandalized or is edited poorly. However but you can post edit requests to the talk page.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 12:11, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

Thank you and now, I will not use short form language

== May's fifth starter ==

I think the trivia was referring to Munchlax (PMD and Ranger). But we don't consider Munchlax a starter anymore, so you were right to change it. I just thought I'd answer your edit summary.

:I was thinking that too, but Skitty is also a starter in PMD and he said that four of them are starters in Generation I...--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 17:52, 20 March 2013 (UTC)

== oops thanks ^^; ==

thanks for fixing my trivia on the May (anime) article. I'm suffering from a double ear infection, with a headache from it. And the Antibiotics are causing me to have Insomia. I was up close to 30 hours when I added that Trivia.

I think at some point I got May and Dawn fused since I was going between their and Iris articles to check on their Pokemon teams for starters.

Anyways, thanks again. Luckily I finally got some sleep so hopefully brain dead moments like that doesn't happen again. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 04:47, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

== But he doesn't own Butterfree anymore? ==

I was only counting the only ones he currently owns. It used to include Charizard until it learned Wing Attack. [[User:AeroWind|AeroWind]] ([[User talk:AeroWind|talk]]) 08:21, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
:But Ash still owned Butterfree and he is still considered as "Ash's Pokémon". Also, the trivia was kind of unnotable in the first place.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 08:30, 21 March 2013 (UTC)

== Thanks! ==

Thanks for catching my mistake on {{TCG ID|Vending|Pidgeotto|S3}}. To be honest, I'm rather frazzled and distracted by the sudden interest in the [[TCG move errors]] page. Our database is no where near ready to tackle that page fully and accurately, and I'm just kind of disappointed no one came to talk to me about my plans for that page before doing it. (There are 3 tasks I wanted to have finished before that move error page was even considered, since they would make that undertaking so much easier.) Anyway, that's not at all your fault...I just appreciate your help in handling some of the debris that is falling because of the work on that page.

== Pokemon shipwrek ==
In the Hindi dub instead of "Lataak ki Rassi" {Vine Whip} they by mistakenly called it "Dhaga chodo" which literally means
release thread.So I am not objecting you as you are a Senior Administrator but as I know Hindi that move was said wrong.
So I think that your edit should be reverted as I gave the correct information and I am telling you that after that in NO Hindi
dub Vine Whip was called "Dhaga Chodo" from then it was always called "Lataak ki rassi" so I think that was a dub mistake
because not before not afterwards not ever it was called dhaga chodo but I am NOT objecting you but I think you should one
more time think over it.
Thanking You
Yours faithfully

Where did you get the information about the Abilities of the Pokémon belonging to the non-main characters from? [[User:Pattyman|Patty]][[User talk:Pattyman|Man]] 21:25, 24 March 2013 (UTC)
:From [http://family.shogakukan.co.jp/kids/netkun/pokemon/official/zukann/zukann.html this page]; it's the official Pokémon Special website.

::Speaking of Abilities, on the page itself, I wanted to write about how their game mechanics differ from the anime ones such as the ones that do not activate despite meeting the requirements such as {{a|Sand Stream}}, but I don't know how to word it.

On the [http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Pok%C3%A9mon_Wiki Pokemon Wiki], there has been this user who has been stealing content from Bulbapedia.

The user who goes by the name of [http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/User%3ABlugo34 Blugo34] is the one who has been doing this, mostly taking the animated .pngs of moves. He has taken a lot, so I'll just list all of them below.

'''Mewtwo''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミュウツー''' ''Mewtwo'') is a {{type|Psychic}} {{pkmn2|legendary}} Pokémon.

It is not known to [[evolution|evolve]] to or from any other Pokémon.

It is among the most well-known Pokémon, being the star of [[M01|the first movie]] and, in Generation I, the most powerful Pokémon in regards to its total base stats. It is a member of the [[Mew duo]] along with {{p|Mew}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mewtwo is one of the first [[artificial Pokémon|Pokémon created by science]]. The scientists who created it dreamed of creating the world's strongest Pokémon. It is widely considered unique, because only one survived the cloning process before the facility in which it was created was destroyed. However, this has yet to be fully confirmed.

Mewtwo is a creature with a {{DL|List of Pokémon by body style|Pokémon with a bipedal, tailed form|humanoid posture}}, but has a few feline features. Mewtwo's body is grayish-purple with a purple underside and a long, purple tail. Mewtwo has three circular digits on each appendage. It has an opposible toe on the inside of each foot, like many real-world primates, as well as two others that face forward. It has purple eyes (sometimes blue when attacking) and two short ears.

One of Mewtwo's most notable features is the tube extending from the back of its skull to its spine. It is most likely a secondary spinal cord, or a system of nerves, allowing for an increased amount of blood and sensory transmission to the brain, heightening its psychic powers.

Mewtwo's other form. In this form Mewtwo's tail disappears and the violet coloration from his body are only present at the end of the tentacle that is attached to it's head and at its feet. Mewtwo's arms are now broader and its chestis less broader than the other form.
====Gender differences====
Mewtwo is a genderless species.

===Special abilities===
Mewtwo is highly skilled with {{t|Psychic}} powers. It can levitate through use of telekinesis, speak telepathically, and take control of another living being's mind. It has a powerful [[signature move]], {{m|Psystrike}}, and it is also known for its powerful {{m|Shadow Ball}} and {{m|Aura Sphere}}. Mewtwo is also capable of wielding various types of attacks (but to a lesser extent than {{p|Mew}}). To exert its powerful psychic abilities, it will stay motionless for long periods of time in intense concentration to raise its capabilities to their maximum power.

In the [[Pokémon Adventures]] {{pkmn|manga}}, Mewtwo fights with a highly skilled combination of {{m|Psywave}}s and a giant spoon for long range and close range battles, respectively.

In the anime, Mewtwo also has the ability to telekinetically create a massive hurricane and is constantly protected from harm inside a reflective sphere of psychic energy. In the English dub, it is claimed that the hurricane was powerful enough to destroy the planet, as well as Mewtwo being able to block a Pokémon's "special abilities."

===Behavior===
Due to its early visions of the human race, Mewtwo is known to be very aggressive and thinks of nothing but battling and defeating its foes. Its viciousness results from repeated DNA splicing and, in the anime, the loss of its friend {{an|Amber}} (whom it completely forgot about after its creators administered a serum to wipe its memory). During the anime special ''[[Mewtwo Returns]]'', however, Mewtwo seems to have developed a very protective and guardian-like nature, to the point of surrendering to {{an|Giovanni}} just to keep its fellow clones safe.

===Habitat===
[[File:Rare Habitat.png|thumb|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rare Pokémon}}]]
Mewtwo, being a cloned Pokémon, has no ''natural'' habitat. However, it generally likes to be in dark solitude, such as the darkness of a deep cave. In Kanto, it can be found in the lowest level of [[Cerulean Cave]]. In the {{pkmn|anime}}, Mewtwo has been seen roaming a large city under the cover of night. In [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red and Blue Rescue Team]], Mewtwo is said to sleep in a [[Western Cave|cave located in the west]].

==History==
According to the [[Pokémon Mansion journals|scientific logs]] found in the {{ka|Pokémon Mansion}} of [[Cinnabar Island]], Mewtwo was born of a pregnant {{p|Mew}}, found deep in the jungles of [[Guyana]], whose embryo had been tampered with to alter its DNA. It was held and studied in the mansion where the scientists, including [[Blaine]] and [[Mr. Fuji]], performed horrific gene-splicing experiments that made it vicious and extremely powerful. It eventually broke free of the Mansion, destroying it in the process, and fled. It can be encountered in [[Cerulean Cave]], accessible only after a Trainer has proven his or her skill at the [[Indigo Plateau]].

==In the anime==

===Major appearances===
====[[Mewtwo (anime)]]====
While Mewtwo has been the Pokémon of focus of a {{pkmn|movie}} and a special, it also made brief appearances in ''[[EP063|The Battle of the Badge]]'' and ''[[EP065|Showdown at the Po-ké Corral]]'' in its body armor. The first instance was when {{an|Giovanni}} used it to battle {{Gary}}'s {{TP|Gary|Arcanine}} and {{p|Nidoking}}. The second time was when Mewtwo totaled Giovanni's headquarters and flew off. While a scene involving Mewtwo and Giovanni did appear in ''[[EP064|It's Mr. Mime Time]]'', it wasn't in the movie. Mewtwo made further appearances during the openings of ''[[M06|Jirachi Wish Maker]]'' standing on a rooftop wearing a cape, in the intro of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'' and ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]'', chasing a {{p|Mew}}.

Mewtwo is set to make another appearance in [[M16]], fighting against the [[Genesect Army]] alongside Ash and his friends.

===In the Magical Pokémon Journey manga===
During the {{Vol|Magical Pokémon Journey|10|final volume}} of [[Magical Pokémon Journey]], [[Hazel]] goes to a forest in another dimension to find Mew so it can grant her a wish, but is trapped by Mewtwo.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Mewtwo (Adventures)}}
Mewtwo has a similar origin and personality to the Mewtwo that appeared in the anime. It is a genetically engineered Pokémon created by [[Blaine]] for [[Team Rocket]] by splicing Mew's DNA with his own. Blaine later defected from Team Rocket and hid himself away, as both he and Mewtwo were suffering from an illness caused by a shared psychic link due to their mutual DNA. Mewtwo went on a rampage and hid itself in the Cerulean Cave, but {{adv|Red}} was able to capture it with a {{Ball|Master}}. Red returned it to Blaine so he could attempt to show the mutant compassion and, if possible, find a cure for their illness. Blaine and Mewtwo fought against [[Lance]] two years later, but were defeated when their condition weakened them and Blaine collapsed. The pair were later cured by the flames of {{p|Entei}}, whom Blaine had earlier befriended and partnered with. Later, Blaine left Mewtwo on his own. The legendary Pokémon only returned in the {{chap|FireRed & LeafGreen}} when he learned of Giovanni's plans to use {{adv|Deoxys}} for nefarious purposes. Once it could communicate telepathically, Mewtwo joined up with Red in an attempt to defeat Deoxys and Giovanni. With Red's help, Mewtwo managed to defeat the duo after a tough fight that nearly killed it. It has a Quiet [[nature]].

===In the Pokémon Get da ze! manga===
[[Shū's father]] is portrayed as having been the creator of Mewtwo after a failed five-year search for the elusive Mew.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
Mewtwo made its first appearance in the [[Pokémon Pocket Monsters]] manga and debuted in ''[[PM002|Big Battle In The Viridian Forest!!]]''

Mewtwo is a Pokémon created by {{OBP|Giovanni|Pocket Monsters}} in ''[[PM025|Bring Down the Strongest Pokémon!!]]''. It was caught by {{OBP|Blue|Pocket Monsters}} prior to ''[[PM054|The Pokémon Banana League (Part 1)]]''. Mewtwo becomes a "gag Pokémon" when its DNA becomes mixed with {{TP|Red|Clefairy}}'s.

* An image of Mewtwo is seen on the door to [[Bill]]'s lighthouse in ''[[EP013|Mystery at the Lighthouse]]'' even though Mewtwo had only been seen by its creators and Team Rocket at that point in the anime.
* Although Mewtwo is a clone of {{p|Mew}}, it comes before Mew in the Pokédex.
* The island country of {{wp|Niue}} released a one-dollar coin featuring Mewtwo as part of a commemorative promotion for the Pokémon franchise, with Mewtwo on the reverse side and the nation's crest on the obverse.

===Origin===
Like Mew, Mewtwo has some {{wp|feline}} characteristics. Its body structure is much larger as a result of {{wp|gene splicing}}. Mewtwo also has some characteristics of a {{wp|grey alien}}.

====Name origin====
Mewtwo is a combination of ''{{p|Mew}}'' (the Pokémon it originated from) and ''two'' (indicating that it is a clone). It also sounds somewhat similar to ''{{wp|mutant}}'' (myūtanto).

----
An '''Eeveelution''' (Japanese: '''ブイズ''' ''Vuis'') is a popular term used [[fanon|among fans]] for the current group of eight Pokémon that [[evolution|evolve]] from {{p|Eevee}}. It is a portmanteau of the words "'''Eevee'''" and "evo'''lution'''". Its definition may be extended to include Eevee itself. The term eventually passed into the realm of official usage first as a pun in the official guide of [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]<ref>[http://oi53.tinypic.com/90txrl.jpg Pokémon Stadium 2 guidebook]</ref>, and then later in the TCG [[Theme Deck]] {{TCG|Eeveelution}}, as well as in the game [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]].

[[File:Eeveelutions.png|thumb|350px|right|{{p|Eevee}} and the eight Eeveelutions]]

==In the games==
===Generation I===
In [[Generation I]], the Eevee obtained at the [[Celadon Condominiums|Celadon Mansion]] could easily become a helpful partner to the player's own [[starter Pokémon]], especially considering the high {{stat|Special}} stat of 110 shared by the three then-known evolutions, and the ability to cover for the weaknesses of the starters' final forms. With relatively few Pokémon of each respective type available until late in the games, {{p|Jolteon}}, {{p|Flareon}}, and {{p|Vaporeon}} were a staple to complete the game.

One may notice that only Eevee and its evolved forms from [[Generation I]] have the distinctive ruff-like collar. The Eeveelutions released afterward do not possess this feature. Likewise, all Eeveelutions from this generation evolve via exposing Eevee to an [[evolutionary stone]], unlike future generations.

====Eevee====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Eevee|type=Normal|ndex=133|ab=Run Away|ab2=Adaptability|abd=Anticipation|HP=55|Attack=55|Defense=50|SpAtk=45|SpDef=65|Speed=55}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Eevee}}''
Since its debut, Eevee has been considered a popular Pokémon, appearing in many teams as a core Pokémon. It is the {{ga|Blue|rival}}'s starter Pokémon in {{game|Yellow}} as well as the starter Pokémon for both [[Michael]] in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] and the [[Hero]] in [[Pokémon Conquest]].
{{-}}

====Vaporeon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Vaporeon|type=Water|ndex=134|ab=Water Absorb|abd=Hydration|how={{color2|000000|Evolutionary stone#Water Stone|Water Stone}}|HP='''130'''|Attack=65|Defense=60|SpAtk=110|SpDef=95|Speed=65}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Vaporeon}}''
'''Vaporeon''', the first of the Eeveelutions in [[National Pokédex]] order, is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon. Like most other Pokémon of its type, its highest stat is its HP. Evolving from an Eevee that is exposed to a {{evostone|Water Stone}}, Vaporeon now has the ability to use the [[HM]] move {{m|Surf}}, among other powerful Water-type moves, to take down its foes. This is particularly advantageous, considering its relatively high {{stat|Special}} stat (and later {{stat|Special Attack}} stat) of 110.

Among Vaporeon's special abilities are the moves {{m|Acid Armor}}, which raises its low Defense stats, and the lesser-known {{m|Aurora Beam}}, which lowers the opponent's Attack. Vaporeon's {{a|Water Absorb}} also helps it by recovering HP any time it is hit by a Water-type attack.
{{-}}

====Jolteon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Jolteon|type=Electric|ndex=135|ab=Volt Absorb|abd=Quick Feet|how={{color2|000000|Evolutionary stone#Thunderstone|Thunderstone}}|HP=65|Attack=65|Defense=60|SpAtk=110|SpDef=95|Speed='''130'''}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Jolteon}}''
'''Jolteon''' is the second of the Eeveelutions, and is an {{type|Electric}} Pokémon. Much like Vaporeon exemplifies the Water type's generally high HP, Jolteon exhibits its type's extraordinary Speed. Like Vaporeon, its Special Attack (formerly Special) is its second-highest stat, making it a good choice as an Electric type in games prior to [[Generation IV]].

Like Vaporeon, Jolteon has an [[Ability]] that heals it when it is hit by attacks of its own type, {{a|Volt Absorb}}, as well as several moves that are rare and nearly exclusive to it. Among these is {{m|Pin Missile}}, a move once praised as the best way to take down a {{t|Psychic}} type in [[Generation I]].
{{-}}

====Flareon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Flareon|type=Fire|ndex=136|ab=Flash Fire|abd=Guts|how={{color2|000000|Evolutionary stone#Fire Stone|Fire Stone}}|HP=65|Attack='''130'''|Defense=60|SpAtk=95|SpDef=110|Speed=65}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Flareon}}''
The final member of [[Generation I]]'s Eeveelution trio is '''Flareon''', a {{type|Fire}} Pokémon, evolving from Eevee when it is exposed to a {{evostone|Fire Stone}}. Flareon's highest stat is its Attack. However, this high Attack is not without its drawbacks: many of the moves that Flareon learns are [[special move]]s, and since, unlike Vaporeon and Jolteon, Flareon fell on the other side of the Special split, its formerly formidable Special became its Special Defense; its Special Attack is somewhat lower. In addition, it learns only two physical [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] moves, {{m|Fire Fang}} and {{m|Flame Charge}}, both of which have moderately low [[power]].

However, its Ability, {{a|Flash Fire}}, gives it a great boost if a Fire-type move is used on it. The ability to resist against the mostly-Special Water type's powerful moves also gives it a slight advantage.
{{-}}

===Generation II===
The addition of two additional evolutions in [[Generation II]] did much to boost Eevee's popularity, as well as give it a reputation of continued versatility. With yet another Eevee available relatively early on in the game, the new evolutions of {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}} were easily obtained; in fact, it now became possible, even, to get ''multiple'' Eevee with just one game, rather than requiring at least two coordinated games to get all three evolutions as was the case in Generation I, due to the introduction of {{pkmn|breeding}}.

Generation II Eeveelutions are obtained when Eevee is leveled up with high [[friendship]] at certain times of the day. Due to this, and the lack of a clock in certain Generation III games, Eevee cannot evolve into Espeon or Umbreon in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. Each of the [[Kimono Girl]]s now owns one Eeveelution.

====Espeon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Espeon|type=Psychic|ndex=196|ab=Synchronize|abd=Magic Bounce|how={{color2|000000|Friendship}} in the {{color2|000000|Time|day}} or {{color2|000000|Sun Shard}}|HP=65|Attack=65|Defense=60|SpAtk='''130'''|SpDef=95|Speed=110}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Espeon}}''
As a {{t|Psychic}} type, '''Espeon''' is well-known for a common trait among Pokémon which share its type: a rather high Special Attack and somewhat high Speed. It also has high Special Defense, another common trait among Psychic types. Taking advantage of the [[time]] and [[friendship]] features introduced in [[Generation II]], Espeon evolves from Eevee when it is raised to maximum friendship and gains a level during the daytime.

Espeon takes advantage of the wide amount of [[special move]]s available. With its Ability, {{a|Synchronize}}, it can easily discourage the use of [[status move]]s that give it a [[status ailment]], as that condition would then come back at the Pokémon attacking it. With its [[Dream World]] Ability, {{a|Magic Bounce}}, it can even protect itself and its team from indirect damage through entry hazards. It, alongside Umbreon, is the [[starter Pokémon]] for [[Pokémon Colosseum]].
{{-}}

====Umbreon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Umbreon|type=Dark|ndex=197|ab=Synchronize|abd=Inner Focus|how={{color2|000000|Friendship}} {{color2|000000|Time|at night}} or {{color2|000000|Moon Shard}}|HP=95|Attack=65|Defense=110|SpAtk=60|SpDef='''130'''|Speed=65}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Umbreon}}''
'''Umbreon''' is the second of the two [[Generation II]] Eeveelutions, a {{type|Dark}} Pokémon. Somewhat uniquely, it was the only pure Dark-type in the generation it was introduced in, and also uniquely, is the only Eeveelution better suited to defending rather than attacking. With its two highest stats in Special Defense and Defense, respectively, and its two lowest in the respective offensive stats, Umbreon is much more often used to cause status problems than damage. Umbreon evolves from Eevee when it gains a level during the nighttime with maximum friendship.

Like Espeon, Umbreon has the Ability {{a|Synchronize}}, causing other Pokémon that attempt to use its defensive, status-causing strategy against it to suffer as well. As a Dark type, it is also the only Eeveelution whose type has an immunity (to the {{t|Psychic}} type). It, alongside Espeon, is the [[starter Pokémon]] for [[Pokémon Colosseum]].
{{-}}

===Generation IV===
Though no new Eeveelutions were seen in [[Generation III]], possibly because of the unavailability of Eevee in [[Hoenn]], [[Generation IV]] added another pair of new Eeveelutions, {{p|Leafeon}} and {{p|Glaceon}}. Unlike their evolutionary cousins, they were not available early on in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. They are, however, available early on in {{game|Platinum}}; this makes Eevee available before the player has received the third Badge.

Generation IV Eeveelutions are obtained by leveling Eevee up in certain areas, another departure from the [[methods of evolution]] in previous generations.

====Leafeon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Leafeon|type=Grass|ndex=470|ab=Leaf Guard|abd=Chlorophyll|how={{color2|000000|Level|Level up}} near a {{color2|000000|Moss Rock}}|HP=65|Attack=110|Defense='''130'''|SpAtk=60|SpDef=65|Speed=95}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Leafeon}}''
{{DL|Fake Pokémon|Previously false assumptions|A Pokémon often theorized and hoped for}} over the history of the franchise, '''Leafeon''', was finally the realization of the {{type|Grass}} evolution of Eevee. Like Flareon, Leafeon has a relatively high Attack stat, however, its strongest stat is in Defense. Unlike Flareon, it has a diverse movepool, with the rare {{m|Leaf Blade}} counted among its STAB moves. As with the [[Generation II]] Eeveelutions, Leafeon takes on a new manner of evolution: when an Eevee is leveled up where [[Moss Rock|a large, mossy rock]] lies, it will evolve into this Pokémon.

Leafeon has the Abilities {{a|Leaf Guard}} and {{a|Chlorophyll}}. Teamed up with a Flareon, which also gets bonuses from {{weather|sunny}} [[Weather conditions|weather]], these Abilities can be used advantageously, despite the vulnerability to a Fire-type move.
{{-}}

====Glaceon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Glaceon|type=Ice|ndex=471|ab=Snow Cloak|abd=Ice Body|how={{color2|000000|Level|Level up}} near an {{color2|000000|Ice Rock}}|HP=65|Attack=60|Defense=110|SpAtk='''130'''|SpDef=95|Speed=65}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Glaceon}}''
'''Glaceon''' is an {{type|Ice}} evolution of Eevee. Like Espeon, its highest stat is its Special Attack; however, unlike Espeon, it has a higher defense, a common trait among other Ice types. Similarly to Flareon's problem with physical moves, it has a relatively small movepool to work with regarding special moves. Glaceon evolves from Eevee when it is leveled up where [[Ice Rock|an ice-covered rock]] lies.

Like Leafeon, Glaceon's special Abilities, {{a|Snow Cloak}} and {{a|Ice Body}}, has to do with the weather, making it more evasive in {{weather|hail}}storms or healing during them. It is the only Eeveelution to learn one of the two countering moves, with {{m|Mirror Coat}} being one of its moves.
{{-}}

===Generation VI===
[[File:Sylveon.png|right|thumb|150px|{{p|Sylveon}}]]
Eeveelutions once again skip a [[Generation V|Generation]] and introduce a new evolution in [[Generation VI]]: {{p|Sylveon}}. At this time, Sylveon's type, and method of evolution are unknown. It is, however, set to debut in [[PK25]], joining its evolutionary relatives.

==In the anime==
[[File:Virgil Eeveelutions.png|thumb|280px|Eevee and seven of its evolutions in the anime]]
In the anime, the Eeveelutions have been featured together in several episodes, most specifically in ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]'' under the possession of the [[Eevee brothers]], which focused on the three [[Generation I]] Eeveelutions, as well as Eevee itself, and ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]'' under the possession of [[Sakura]] and the [[Kimono Girl]]s, which focused on the five Eeveelutions there were as of [[Generation II]], although Sakura' Espeon was still an Eevee during this episode. The seven Eeveelutions were first featured together with an Eevee as a small cameo at the beginning of ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

Several important characters have owned Eevee which have gone on to evolve; other Eeveelutions have also been featured separately from their cousins.

===Gary's Umbreon===
[[Gary Oak]] owns an {{TP|Gary|Umbreon}} which he caught as an Eevee sometime before Ash returned to [[Kanto]] from the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]].

It is one of his main Pokémon, having appeared nearly every time he himself has, and being quite skilled in battle.

===Sakura's Espeon===
[[Sakura]], one of the five [[Kimono Girl]]s, is the owner of an {{TP|Sakura|Espeon}}, while the rest of her sisters own the four other Eeveelutions that were known in [[Generation II]].

===May's Glaceon===
[[File:Ursula Flareon Vaporeon.png|thumb|250px|Ursula's Vaporeon and Flareon]]
{{an|May}}, who is the first — and so far only — main anime character to have owned an Eevee, evolved hers into {{TP|May|Glaceon}} on a visit to [[Sinnoh]] for the [[Wallace Cup]].

===Johanna's Umbreon===
[[Johanna]] has an Umbreon that debuted in ''[[DP139|Strategy Begins at Home!]]''. It joined {{TP|Johanna|Glameow}} to help train against its Trainer's daughter: Dawn. It later did the same in [[SS024]].

===Zoey's Leafeon===
[[Zoey]] has a Leafeon that debuted in ''[[DP155|Double-Time Battle Training!]]''. It was used in a practice tag Double Battle with her Kirlia. It reappeared in ''[[DP176|Coming Full Festival Circle!]]'' alongside her {{p|Mismagius}} in the semi-finals of the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival]] where it defeated [[Nando's Kricketune]] and {{p|Lopunny}}.

[[Ursula]] used two Eevee in her appeal for the [[Grand Festival]] in the ''[[DP174|Last Call, First Round!]]''. She evolved them into Vaporeon and Flareon as part of the act.

===Volkner's Jolteon===
[[Volkner]] used a Jolteon in ''[[DP179|The Eighth Wonder of the Sinnoh World!]]'' in Ash's Gym battle, it battled and lost to {{AP|Infernape}}. It is the only Eeveelution to be used by a [[Gym Leader]] in the anime.

===Cynthia's Glaceon===
[[Cynthia]] used a Glaceon in ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]'' to freeze part of a river. She and {{Ash}} then broke up the ice so it could be used to cool down a sick {{an|Meloetta}}.

===Virgil's Team===
[[Virgil]] owns an Eevee and every one of its then-known final forms. They debuted together in ''[[BW102|Team Eevee and the Pokémon Rescue Squad!]]'' where he used them in his mountain rescue duties. He also used them to fight through the [[Vertress Conference]], which he won.

===[[PK25]]===
An upcoming Pikachu short for [[M16]] is going to feature every Eevee evolution, featuring Sylveon's anime debut.
{{-}}
==In the manga==
===In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
In the chapter ''[[ET06|To Evolve or Not to Evolve, That is the Question!]]'', {{Ash}} and [[Mikey]] fight together against the [[Eevee brothers]] so that Mikey and his Eevee may be accepted into the secret fellowship, The Knights of the E Stone. Each of Mikey's brothers owns one of Eevee's evolutions which was known at the time ({{p|Vaporeon}}, {{p|Jolteon}} and {{p|Flareon}}), and Mikey's Eevee must fight each of its evolutions to prove its worth despite being an unevolved Pokémon.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[Vee]] was featured as a Pokémon [[Team Rocket]] experimented on with the use of the [[Eevee Bio-Engineering Scheme]]. This allowed Eevee to freely evolve into any of the [[Generation I]] Eeveelutions. After some time under {{adv|Red}}'s ownership however, Vee evolved into an {{p|Espeon}}, and the ability was eliminated.

==In the TCG==
In the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], many sets featuring the Eeveelutions have been released. Commonly, all of them will be released within the same expansion set, much as {{TCG ID|Jungle|Flareon|3}}, {{TCG ID|Jungle|Jolteon|4}}, and {{TCG ID|Jungle|Vaporeon|12}} were originally released in the {{TCG|Jungle}} expansion.

Included with the {{TCG|Skyridge}} expansion, also, is a {{TCG|Theme Deck}} by the name of {{TCG|Eeveelution}}, which features the original three Eeveelutions as the focus. However, the deck only includes the three [[Generation I]] Eeveelutions: whereas {{TCG ID|Skyridge|Umbreon|H30}} was released in the set, Espeon was not.

There have also been several {{TCG|deck archetype|deck archetypes}} that revolve around the Eeveelutions, mostly due to their versatility and their lack of a unanimous weakness. One of the most recent is {{TCG|Eeveelutions}}, which utilizes {{TCG|Pokémon-ex|Pokémon-ex variants}} of all five then-known Eeveelutions. The use of this archetype has been assisted by the release of a great many {{TCG|Energy card}}s that provide more than one type of Energy, such as {{TCG|Rainbow Energy}}. In {{TCG|Majestic Dawn}}, {{TCG|Glaceon}} and {{TCG|Leafeon}} were introduced to the TCG, as well as including all previous Eeveelutions. The most recent expansion to include the Eevee family is {{TCG|Dark Explorers}}, including all but Sylveon.

==Trivia==
* All of the Eeveelutions learn a new move every four levels up to level 45 in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}. In Generation IV and {{2v2|Black|White}}, they each learned a new move every seven levels up to level 71{{sup/4|DP}} or 78{{sup/4|PtHGSS}}{{sup/5|BW}}.
* All of the Eeveelutions so far have types whose moves were formerly governed solely by the {{stat|Special Attack}} stat. The only formerly all-special type not yet covered is {{t|Dragon}}.
* Each Eeveelution has identical [[Base stats|base stat]] totals, as well as the same 130-110-95-65-65-60 amounts. What differs among them is which amount is allotted to which stat.
** Espeon and Glaceon both have their highest base stat in Special Attack, as well as the same stats in HP and Special Defense. The other stats, however, vary.
** Leafeon is the only Eeveelution whose base stat in Special Defense is lower than 95.
** No Eeveelution so far has either HP or Special Defense as its lowest base stat.
* In the TCG, out of the seven Eeveelutions, only two share a type: Glaceon and Vaporeon, which both appear as {{TCG|Water}} Pokémon.
* Eevee and all of the Eeveelutions each have a [[catch rate]] of 45.
* Vaporeon is the only Eeveelution that does not share any weakness with another. Flareon and Jolteon are weak to {{type|Ground}} moves, Espeon, Umbreon and Leafeon are weak to {{type|Bug}} moves, Umbreon and Glaceon are weak to {{type|Fighting}} moves, and Leafeon and Glaceon are weak to {{type|Fire}} moves.
* {{p|Flareon}} is the only Eeveelution who has a type advantage over more than one other Eeveelution (being {{p|Leafeon}} and {{p|Glaceon}}).
* Espeon is the only Eeveelution not to have a type advantage over another at all (Vaporeon is strong against Flareon, Jolteon is strong against Vaporeon, Flareon is strong against both Leafeon and Glaceon, Umbreon is strong against Espeon, Leafeon is strong against Vaporeon and Glaceon is strong against Leafeon).
* A chapter of [[Magical Pokémon Journey]], ''[[PPP31|Eevee-Lu-Tion]]'', parodies this term. ({{TP|Coconut|Eevee}} and [[Lu]] are the names of two characters from the Magical Pokémon Journey manga).
**Despite this, most of Eevee's evolutions up to Generation II were not featured in this manga series. Only {{OBP|Vaporeon|MPJ}} makes an appearance in ''[[PPPB10|The Master Plan... for Romance!]]''.
* The [[remake]]s for [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]] are incapable of obtaining any Eeveelutions that were introduced after that particular generation. The lack of a clock system prevents Espeon and Umbreon from being obtained in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, and the lack of the [[Moss Rock]] and [[Ice Rock]] prevents Leafeon and Glaceon from being obtained in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* Despite Eevee being obtainable before the [[Pokémon League]] in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, it can not evolve into Leafeon or Glaceon until after the Elite Four is defeated, unless it is traded to {{2v2|Black|White}}, evolved, and then traded back. This is because [[Twist Mountain]] and [[Pinwheel Forest]] are inaccessible.
*If Jolteon's hidden ability is activated he or she has pseudo-highest speed.

Eon duo

Gelato Gelato:

[[File:Latias Latios.png|thumb|200px|right|Artwork of Latias and Latios]]
'''Eon duo''' is a popular fan-created term that collectively refers to the {{pkmn2|legendary}} Eon Pokémon {{p|Latias}} and {{p|Latios}}, also referred to as '''Lati@s''', as the symbol "@" looks like an "a" inside an "o".

==Latias==
{| align="right"
| {{Compare|name=Latias|type=Dragon|type2=Psychic|ndex=380|ab=Levitate|HP=80|Attack=80|Defense=90|SpAtk=110|SpDef=130|Speed=110}}
|}
{{main|Latias (Pokémon)}}
'''Latias''', the female Eon Pokémon, can be found without a special event item in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Sapphire}}, {{v2|Emerald}} (depending on the player's choice), {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|HeartGold}}, and {{game|Black and White|s|4=2|White 2}}.

Latias's stats lean towards defense, unlike Latios, whose stats are on the offensive side. Latias can weaken her male counterpart with her [[signature move]], {{m|Mist Ball}}. 50% of the time, the move will weaken the foe's {{stat|Special Attack}}.

In the case of Ruby, or in a case where Latios is chosen to roam [[Hoenn]] in Emerald, an [[Eon Ticket]] will take the player to [[Southern Island]] for an encounter, like with Latios. With an [[Enigma Stone]] in SoulSilver, Latias can be found and captured in [[Pewter City]].
{{-}}

==Latios==
{| align="right"
| {{Compare|name=Latios|type=Dragon|type2=Psychic|ndex=381|ab=Levitate|HP=80|Attack=90|Defense=80|SpAtk=130|SpDef=110|Speed=110}}
|}
{{main|Latios (Pokémon)}}
'''Latios''' is the male member of the duo, found without a special event item in {{game|Ruby and Sapphire|s|Ruby}}, {{v2|Emerald}} (depending on the player's choice), {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s|SoulSilver}}, and {{game|Black and White|s|4=2|Black 2}}.

While Latios and Latias are very similar, Latios has higher offensive stats. Latios can counter Latias's higher defensive stats with his [[signature move]], {{m|Luster Purge}}. This move has a rather high chance of lowering the target's {{stat|Special Defense}}.

In the case of Sapphire, or in a case where Latias is chosen to roam [[Hoenn]] in Emerald, an [[Eon Ticket]] will take the player to [[Southern Island]] for an encounter, like Latias. In HeartGold, Latios will be found in Pewter City after obtaining an [[Enigma Stone]].

==thank you==
Thank you for the kind greetings. I came and joined this wiki comunity to help with the "Pokemon + Nobunagas Ambition" game. I am a huge fan of KOEI and their games, and while i dont know much about pokemon outside the cartoons, i thought i could help by proving information regarding the human characters in the upcoming crossover game

I hope i can be of service [[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] 07:35, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

==I have a question==
First of all thank you for the nice greeting, I apreciate it.
Also I noticed that on your page it said your favorite Pokemon was Evee. I would like to add my favorite Pokemon (Chandelure) to my page, how can I do that?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:15, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're welcome! Do you mean the little tag on my page? First you have to make some edits to the mainspace, so you can gain the ability to create and edit your userpage. Don't ask me how many, I don't know. Once you can do that, add <code><nowiki>{{Template:User Favorite|609|Chandelure}}</nowiki></code> to your page. For more information, look {{bp|Usertag|here}}. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 07:28, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==Thank you==
Yes, the tag is very nice, and thanks for letting me know!
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:49, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==I can't find the mainspace==
Sorry if I am bothering you, but I am new to Bulbapedia. Is there a link somwhere?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:02, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. "Mainspace" refers to most Bulbapedia pages that don't start with "talk:" or "user:". For example, the edit you made to {{p|Axew}}'s article counts as a mainspace edit. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:08, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
==it still will not let me edit my userpage==
By the way I'm glad i'm not bothering you, I don't like to do that to people
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:22, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You'll need to make several mainspace edits before you are able to edit your userpage. I don't know the exact number, but it is several. By the way, you don't need to create a new header every time you add to a talkpage. You can just click the "edit" button next to the header where the conversation started. You really only need to make a new header when starting a new conversation. {{unsigned|Crystal Talian}}
:Thanks, I will go make some edits now.
Also I was making a new header every time becuase I didn't know how to reply at that time
[[User:Chandelure1166|Chandelure1166]] 08:39, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
::No problem! And I figured it was something like that. I was just letting you know. =3 [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:43, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==Can you help me?==
Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said). So I was sort of wondering if you possibly have a simple easy task I could do to help out the wiki?
--[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] 23:00, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

==Just one last question==
Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section? I mostly noticed appearance is basically only used for pokemon and not for the human characters but I looked at another stub for a trainer class and it listed a appearance for both characters but it was in the section where game information was usually located. Well thanks for your help, bye!

== Signature move ==

Where is the problem? KyleRGiggs 09:01, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
:Wait until Force Fire replies to your question before reverting him. However, I believe the problem is that this is a move tutor move. It wasn't that only Blastoise could learn, but that the tutor refused to teach it to anyone else. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 09:02, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
::I am not reverting him actually, please check what I revert. KyleRGiggs 09:13, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

::::Sorry to butt in but, subst is usually used for message templates like <nowiki>{{subst:Userspace warning}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{subst:Preview button}}</nowiki>, not just for <nowiki>{{subst:Welcome}}</nowiki>.

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
:I understand your concern, and I agree that it is a good point. The next time I have the chance to talk with staff, I will bring up your point, and we will let you know when a decision is made on the subject. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 01:10, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

::Fair enough. Give me a heads-up on my talk page when that occurs; I constantly refer back to things here more often than anywhere else, so I'll see it. Let the staff know I'm willing to take this on myself as well, and if I do make an odd mistake somewhere, they're welcome to clean up after me where necessary. Hopefully that won't happen very often. =D [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:14, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

:First, you're welcome. =3 And do you mean the usertags? Well, first you need to do some editing so you can start your own userpage. Don't ask me how many edits you need to do, it's a hidden number. Anyway, once you do that, you can look {{bp|Usertag|here}} for information on usertags. Have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 06:06, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page. It looks like I now have the right to create pages, so could you please tell me a bit about creating them? Sorry to bother you. The editing help doesn't help. LOL! Either way, I would really appreciate it if you helped me out. [[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 21:50, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest). I don't think it would be needed for any pages at the moment, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:28, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

== Moving Sections ==

Crystal i am new and i made a new section on a page and how do i move it to a new place([[User:Icestar649|Icestar649]] ([[User talk:Icestar649|talk]]) 22:22, 19 December 2012 (UTC))
:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

== "If there are six, it's not notable" ==

Technically, it's only five, since Deoxys differs via forme. Is five a small enough number out of 650 to be deemed notable?

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

== Regarding Mew's name origin ==

According to Webster's Universal English Thesaurus:

Because my research indicates that it only used to indicate a change in birds. An example from the Oxford dictionary: "the {{tt|eyasses|young hawks}} clung dully to their leashes as if they were mewing", referring to hawks in moult. The definition "to confine" is also primary used in reference to birds used for hawking. This has nothing to do with the Pokémon Mew.

==thank you==
Thank you for the kind greetings. I came and joined this wiki comunity to help with the "Pokemon + Nobunagas Ambition" game. I am a huge fan of KOEI and their games, and while i dont know much about pokemon outside the cartoons, i thought i could help by proving information regarding the human characters in the upcoming crossover game

I hope i can be of service [[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] 07:35, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

==I have a question==
First of all thank you for the nice greeting, I apreciate it.
Also I noticed that on your page it said your favorite Pokemon was Evee. I would like to add my favorite Pokemon (Chandelure) to my page, how can I do that?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:15, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're welcome! Do you mean the little tag on my page? First you have to make some edits to the mainspace, so you can gain the ability to create and edit your userpage. Don't ask me how many, I don't know. Once you can do that, add <code><nowiki>{{Template:User Favorite|609|Chandelure}}</nowiki></code> to your page. For more information, look {{bp|Usertag|here}}.

[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:02, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. "Mainspace" refers to most Bulbapedia pages that don't start with "talk:" or "user:". For example, the edit you made to {{p|Axew}}'s article counts as a mainspace edit. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:08, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:22, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You'll need to make several mainspace edits before you are able to edit your userpage. I don't know the exact number, but it is several. By the way, you don't need to create a new header every time you add to a talkpage. You can just click the "edit" button next to the header where the conversation started. You really only need to make a new header when starting a new conversation. {{unsigned|Crystal Talian}}

Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said). So I was sort of wondering if you possibly have a simple easy task I could do to help out the wiki?

==Just one last question==
Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section? I mostly noticed appearance is basically only used for pokemon and not for the human characters but I looked at another stub for a trainer class and it listed a appearance for both characters but it was in the section where game information was usually located. Well thanks for your help, bye!

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page. It looks like I now have the right to create pages, so could you please tell me a bit about creating them? Sorry to bother you. The editing help doesn't help. LOL! Either way, I would really appreciate it if you helped me out. [[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 21:50, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest). I don't think it would be needed for any pages at the moment, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:28, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

== About Pupitar? ==

In the Pokédex entries of Pupitar in FireRed and Silver it describes Pupitar as fast, but it is not really that fast for a Pokemon at Level 30. And I would aalso like to add "despite its Pokédex entries it can be damage by steel-type.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 05:34, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
:Pokedex entries do not necessarily relate to in-game mechanics. The games can only do so much. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 05:36, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
::How about in the trivia section of Escavalier: "Although Escavalier's Pokédex entry states that it flies around at high speed, its base speed is among the lowest of all known Pokémon, at just 20, nor can this species have the Ability Levitate.".[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 08:42, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
:::I will be removing that when I can get to it. Staff had a discussion a short while ago, and it was decided to remove trivia such as this. However, as there are currently over six hundred Pokémon, it is difficult to remove all the trivia at once. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 09:29, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

== "Out of three Pokemon, so not notable" ==

Since this is noting a record, and not a peculiar trait, I don't see how this notability requirement enters into it. Would you remove the similar record from the Hydreigon article if it was shared with two other species? [[User:Yvnr|Yvnr]] ([[User talk:Yvnr|talk]]) 07:54, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

== Regarding Tyranitar ==

About Tyranitar that was so stupid of me :3. I don't know how to describe it but if you look above the scaled (a reference from Larvitar's page)blue rhombus you can see the armor fom the lower body is not connected to the armor on the upper body.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 08:46, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato

== Regarding Mew's name origin ==

According to Webster's Universal English Thesaurus:
mew vb confine, coop, encase, enclose, imprison;cast, change, mold, shed.
That is why I said Mew's name origin comes from the word (don't worry I'm going to change it into verb when I edit)mew.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 12:29, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
::Just because a word can mean something, doesn't mean that it does in every case. The usage of the word in this way seems unlikely (and therefore not notable) in Mew's origin. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:32, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
:::..., for example:"The chameleon mew its color."[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 05:33, 5 April 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
:::: "Mew" is more often used in reference to birds moulting. Is that an example of your own, or one from another website? Because my research indicates that it only used to indicate a change in birds. An example from the Oxford dictionary: "the {{tt|eyasses|young hawks}} clung dully to their leashes as if they were mewing", referring to hawks in moult. The definition "to confine" is also primary used in reference to birds used for hawking. This has nothing to do with the Pokémon Mew. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 05:42, 5 April 2013 (UTC)
:::::My own. Well cloud and sky are completely different in definition, but their synonymous because they come from the same latin word.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 05:54, 5 April 2013 (UTC)Gelato Glato
::::::The clouds are the sky are not synonymous simply because they come from the same word. You cannot use "sky" to mean "cloud" or vice versa. The word "mew" coming from the same word as "mutant" does not mean it should be added to Mew's page in the context of "change". This word used in this way has a strong connotation towards birds, which the Pokémon clearly is not. It is notable to have ''mutant'' in Mew's name origin, but that is already there.

==thank you==
Thank you for the kind greetings. I came and joined this wiki comunity to help with the "Pokemon + Nobunagas Ambition" game. I am a huge fan of KOEI and their games, and while i dont know much about pokemon outside the cartoons, i thought i could help by proving information regarding the human characters in the upcoming crossover game

I hope i can be of service [[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] 07:35, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

==I have a question==

:You're welcome! Do you mean the little tag on my page? First you have to make some edits to the mainspace, so you can gain the ability to create and edit your userpage. Don't ask me how many, I don't know. Once you can do that, add <code><nowiki>{{Template:User Favorite|609|Chandelure}}</nowiki></code> to your page. For more information, look {{bp|Usertag|here}}.

Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said).

Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section?

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page.

:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}.

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest).

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

Because your favourite pokemon is evee, I recoloured it and turned it into a Christmas evee by using Christmas colour (red and green). I hope you like it and have a great day. http://images.wikia.com/peepandthebigwideworld/images/c/ce/Chirstmas_Eevee.png

== "If there are six, it's not notable" ==

Technically, it's only five, since Deoxys differs via forme. Is five a small enough number out of 650 to be deemed notable? Sweeping statistics like this at a glance are of considerable use to people who play competitively. [[User:Jumpman16|Jumpman16]] ([[User talk:Jumpman16|talk]]) 03:54, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

== "Out of three Pokemon, so not notable" ==

== Regarding Mew's name origin ==

According to Webster's Universal English Thesaurus:
mew vb confine, coop, encase, enclose, imprison;cast, change, mold, shed.
That is why I said Mew's name origin comes from the word (don't worry I'm going to change it into verb when I edit)mew.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 12:29, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
::Just because a word can mean something, doesn't mean that it does in every case. The usage of the word in this way seems unlikely (and therefore not notable) in Mew's origin. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:32, 31 March 2013 (UTC)
:::..., for example:"The chameleon mew its color."[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 05:33, 5 April 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
:::: "Mew" is more often used in reference to birds moulting. Is that an example of your own, or one from another website? Because my research indicates that it only used to indicate a change in birds. An example from the Oxford dictionary: "the {{tt|eyasses|young hawks}} clung dully to their leashes as if they were mewing", referring to hawks in moult. The definition "to confine" is also primary used in reference to birds used for hawking. This has nothing to do with the Pokémon Mew. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 05:42, 5 April 2013 (UTC)

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page. It looks like I now have the right to create pages, so could you please tell me a bit about creating them? Sorry to bother you. The editing help doesn't help. LOL! Either way, I would really appreciate it if you helped me out. [[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 21:50, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest). I don't think it would be needed for any pages at the moment, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:28, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

== Moving Sections ==

Crystal i am new and i made a new section on a page and how do i move it to a new place([[User:Icestar649|Icestar649]] ([[User talk:Icestar649|talk]]) 22:22, 19 December 2012 (UTC))
:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

== "If there are six, it's not notable" ==

Technically, it's only five, since Deoxys differs via forme. Is five a small enough number out of 650 to be deemed notable?

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

== Regarding Mew's name origin ==

According to Webster's Universal English Thesaurus:

Because my research indicates that it only used to indicate a change in birds. An example from the Oxford dictionary: "the {{tt|eyasses|young hawks}} clung dully to their leashes as if they were mewing", referring to hawks in moult.

Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said). So I was sort of wondering if you possibly have a simple easy task I could do to help out the wiki?

Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section? I mostly noticed appearance is basically only used for pokemon and not for the human characters but I looked at another stub for a trainer class and it listed a appearance for both characters but it was in the section where game information was usually located. Well thanks for your help, bye!

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page.

:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}.

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others?

:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest).

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

::How about in the trivia section of Escavalier: "Although Escavalier's Pokédex entry states that it flies around at high speed, its base speed is among the lowest of all known Pokémon, at just 20, nor can this species have the Ability Levitate.".[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 08:42, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
:::I will be removing that when I can get to it. Staff had a discussion a short while ago, and it was decided to remove trivia such as this.

== "Out of three Pokemon, so not notable" ==

Since this is noting a record, and not a peculiar trait, I don't see how this notability requirement enters into it. Would you remove the similar record from the Hydreigon article if it was shared with two other species? [[User:Yvnr|Yvnr]] ([[User talk:Yvnr|talk]]) 07:54, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

== Regarding Tyranitar ==

About Tyranitar that was so stupid of me :3. I don't know how to describe it but if you look above the scaled (a reference from Larvitar's page)blue rhombus you can see the armor fom the lower body is not connected to the armor on the upper body.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 08:46, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato

== Regarding Mew's name origin ==

According to Webster's Universal English Thesaurus:
mew vb confine, coop, encase, enclose, imprison;cast, change, mold, shed.
That is why I said Mew's name origin comes from the word (don't worry I'm going to change it into verb when I edit)mew.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 12:29, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato

'''Mudkip''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ミズゴロウ''' ''Mizugorou'') is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Marshtomp}} starting at [[level]] 16, which evolves into {{p|Swampert}} starting at [[level]] 36.

Along with {{p|Treecko}} and {{p|Torchic}}, Mudkip is one of three [[starter Pokémon]] of [[Hoenn]] available at the beginning of {{game2|Ruby|Sapphire|Emerald}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Mudkip is a small, blue, amphibious Pokémon with a large head, wide mouth, black, beady eyes and orange, star-shaped external gills on its cheeks. It also has a light-blue fin on the top of its head and it's tail fin is flexible. It moves around on all four legs, and has a light-blue underside.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Mudkip can use the fin on its head to detect subtle changes in air and water currents, and can detect nearby bodies of water. In this way, it can also detect danger. Its fin can also point in a certain direction, as seen in ''[[AG114|Date Expectations]]''. Like most Water-type Pokémon, Mudkip can {{m|Water Gun|shoot water}} from its mouth. When in the water, Mudkip breathes using the gills on its cheeks. On land, it can powerfully {{m|Strength|lift large boulders}} by planting its four feet and heaving. If it is faced with a tight situation in battle, Mudkip will become strong enough to crush rocks bigger than itself.

===Behavior===
Mudkip is more mellow than its evolutions, but is protective of its kind and, because of its powerful strength, it groups up in numbers and easily overpower its foes. Mudkip has been known to be playful, especially in mud, as well. It sleeps by burying itself in soil at the water's edge. Its large tail fin propels it through water with powerful acceleration.

===Habitat===
[[File:Watersedge.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Water's-edge Pokémon}}]]
Mudkip and members of its evolution family dwell in swamps or other wetlands, deep inside isolated islands. Soon after birth on beautiful beaches, it swims to swamps deep within islands.

===Diet===

===Major appearances===
====[[Brock's Marshtomp|Brock's Mudkip]]====
{{an|Brock}} has a {{TP|Brock|Marshtomp}} that he caught as a Mudkip in ''[[AG025|A Mudkip Mission]]''. Mudkip {{pkmn|Egg}}s were seen in the episode when [[Old Man Swamp]] offered to let Brock see one hatch, and Brock accepts his offer with enthusiasm. Next, a {{pkmn2|baby}} Mudkip is shown hatching from a Mudkip Egg.

====Other====
Mudkip first appeared in ''[[AG001|Get the Show on the Road]]'', when {{an|May}} was asked to use a Pokémon to attack some {{p|Poochyena}}. Then, when May was asked to pick her [[starter Pokémon]], she didn't pick Mudkip after it refused to do what May asked.

During ''[[AG034|Having a Wailord of a Time]]'', [[Nurse Joy]] asks {{Ash}} and [[Max]] to look over a {{p|Treecko}}, {{p|Torchic}} and Mudkip while she wasn't there. The Mudkip of this group was very young and cried easily.

[[Nicholai]] has a Mudkip that appeared in ''[[AG005|In the Knicker of Time!]]''. In ''[[AG048|ZigZag Zangoose]]'', it was revealed to have evolved to a {{p|Marshtomp}}.

===Minor appearances===
A Mudkip was used by one of the students of the [[Pokémon Trainer's School]] in ''[[AG015|Gonna Rule The School!]]''.

A Mudkip appeared in ''[[AG033|Now That’s Flower Power!]]'' as a Pokémon in the Contest.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Mumu}}
In Pokémon Adventures, when {{adv|Ruby}} was attacked by {{adv|Sapphire}}'s {{p|Torchic}}, [[Professor Birch]] told him to look in his briefcase, to pick up the Poké Ball with a blue Pokémon and to throw it. The Poké Ball released a Mudkip and he nicknamed it Mumu. At the beginning, Ruby was disappointed with it because it wasn't as attractive as his other Pokémon and it couldn't participate in any [[Pokémon Contest]]. He tried with different conditions and then decided that [[Tough Contest]]s would be perfect for it. Mumu eventually evolved into a {{p|Marshtomp}} and then into a {{p|Swampert}}.

== Other appearances ==

=== [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]] ===

Mudkip appears as a random trophy.

''"A Mud Fish Pokémon. It has fins on its head and tail. The fin on its head acts like a radar dish to read its surroundings, and its tail fin increases its swimming speed. The gills on its cheeks allow it to move about in water. It's very strong for its size--it can even lift big boulders. It burrows into muddy watersides to sleep. Mudkip evolves into Marshtomp."''

Eeveelution

2013-03-31T06:06:15Z

Gelato Gelato:

{{Search|[[evolution]] family of {{p|Eevee}}|the [[Theme Deck]] released with the {{TCG|Skyridge}} expansion|Eeveelution (TCG)}} ''For the {{TCG|deck archetype}}, see {{TCG|Eeveelutions}}.''
----
An '''Eeveelution''' (Japanese: '''ブイズ''' ''Vuis'') is a popular term used [[fanon|among fans]] for the current group of eight Pokémon that [[evolution|evolve]] from {{p|Eevee}}. It is a portmanteau of the words "'''Eevee'''" and "evo'''lution'''". Its definition may be extended to include Eevee itself. The term eventually passed into the realm of official usage first as a pun in the official guide of [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]<ref>[http://oi53.tinypic.com/90txrl.jpg Pokémon Stadium 2 guidebook]</ref>, and then later in the TCG [[Theme Deck]] {{TCG|Eeveelution}}, as well as in the game [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]].

[[File:Eeveelutions.png|thumb|350px|right|{{p|Eevee}} and the eight Eeveelutions]]

==In the games==
===Generation I===
In [[Generation I]], the Eevee obtained at the [[Celadon Condominiums|Celadon Mansion]] could easily become a helpful partner to the player's own [[starter Pokémon]], especially considering the high {{stat|Special}} stat of 110 shared by the three then-known evolutions, and the ability to cover for the weaknesses of the starters' final forms. With relatively few Pokémon of each respective type available until late in the games, {{p|Jolteon}}, {{p|Flareon}}, and {{p|Vaporeon}} were a staple to complete the game.

One may notice that only Eevee and its evolved forms from [[Generation I]] have the distinctive ruff-like collar. The Eeveelutions released afterward do not possess this feature. Likewise, all Eeveelutions from this generation evolve via exposing Eevee to an [[evolutionary stone]], unlike future generations.

====Eevee====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Eevee|type=Normal|ndex=133|ab=Run Away|ab2=Adaptability|abd=Anticipation|HP=55|Attack=55|Defense=50|SpAtk=45|SpDef=65|Speed=55}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Eevee}}''
Since its debut, Eevee has been considered a popular Pokémon, appearing in many teams as a core Pokémon. It is the {{ga|Blue|rival}}'s starter Pokémon in {{game|Yellow}} as well as the starter Pokémon for both [[Michael]] in [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness]] and the [[Hero]] in [[Pokémon Conquest]].
{{-}}

====Vaporeon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Vaporeon|type=Water|ndex=134|ab=Water Absorb|abd=Hydration|how={{color2|000000|Evolutionary stone#Water Stone|Water Stone}}|HP='''130'''|Attack=65|Defense=60|SpAtk=110|SpDef=95|Speed=65}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Vaporeon}}''
'''Vaporeon''', the first of the Eeveelutions in [[National Pokédex]] order, is a {{type|Water}} Pokémon. Like most other Pokémon of its type, its highest stat is its HP. Evolving from an Eevee that is exposed to a {{evostone|Water Stone}}, Vaporeon now has the ability to use the [[HM]] move {{m|Surf}}, among other powerful Water-type moves, to take down its foes. This is particularly advantageous, considering its relatively high {{stat|Special}} stat (and later {{stat|Special Attack}} stat) of 110.

Among Vaporeon's special abilities are the moves {{m|Acid Armor}}, which raises its low Defense stats, and the lesser-known {{m|Aurora Beam}}, which lowers the opponent's Attack. Vaporeon's {{a|Water Absorb}} also helps it by recovering HP any time it is hit by a Water-type attack.
{{-}}

====Jolteon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Jolteon|type=Electric|ndex=135|ab=Volt Absorb|abd=Quick Feet|how={{color2|000000|Evolutionary stone#Thunderstone|Thunderstone}}|HP=65|Attack=65|Defense=60|SpAtk=110|SpDef=95|Speed='''130'''}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Jolteon}}''
'''Jolteon''' is the second of the Eeveelutions, and is an {{type|Electric}} Pokémon. Much like Vaporeon exemplifies the Water type's generally high HP, Jolteon exhibits its type's extraordinary Speed. Like Vaporeon, its Special Attack (formerly Special) is its second-highest stat, making it a good choice as an Electric type in games prior to [[Generation IV]].

Like Vaporeon, Jolteon has an [[Ability]] that heals it when it is hit by attacks of its own type, {{a|Volt Absorb}}, as well as several moves that are rare and nearly exclusive to it. Among these is {{m|Pin Missile}}, a move once praised as the best way to take down a {{t|Psychic}} type in [[Generation I]].
{{-}}

====Flareon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Flareon|type=Fire|ndex=136|ab=Flash Fire|abd=Guts|how={{color2|000000|Evolutionary stone#Fire Stone|Fire Stone}}|HP=65|Attack='''130'''|Defense=60|SpAtk=95|SpDef=110|Speed=65}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Flareon}}''
The final member of [[Generation I]]'s Eeveelution trio is '''Flareon''', a {{type|Fire}} Pokémon, evolving from Eevee when it is exposed to a {{evostone|Fire Stone}}. Flareon's highest stat is its Attack. However, this high Attack is not without its drawbacks: many of the moves that Flareon learns are [[special move]]s, and since, unlike Vaporeon and Jolteon, Flareon fell on the other side of the Special split, its formerly formidable Special became its Special Defense; its Special Attack is somewhat lower. In addition, it learns only two physical [[Same-type attack bonus|STAB]] moves, {{m|Fire Fang}} and {{m|Flame Charge}}, both of which have moderately low [[power]].

However, its Ability, {{a|Flash Fire}}, gives it a great boost if a Fire-type move is used on it. The ability to resist against the mostly-Special Water type's powerful moves also gives it a slight advantage.
{{-}}

===Generation II===
The addition of two additional evolutions in [[Generation II]] did much to boost Eevee's popularity, as well as give it a reputation of continued versatility. With yet another Eevee available relatively early on in the game, the new evolutions of {{p|Espeon}} and {{p|Umbreon}} were easily obtained; in fact, it now became possible, even, to get ''multiple'' Eevee with just one game, rather than requiring at least two coordinated games to get all three evolutions as was the case in Generation I, due to the introduction of {{pkmn|breeding}}.

Generation II Eeveelutions are obtained when Eevee is leveled up with high [[friendship]] at certain times of the day. Due to this, and the lack of a clock in certain Generation III games, Eevee cannot evolve into Espeon or Umbreon in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}. Each of the [[Kimono Girl]]s now owns one Eeveelution.

====Espeon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Espeon|type=Psychic|ndex=196|ab=Synchronize|abd=Magic Bounce|how={{color2|000000|Friendship}} in the {{color2|000000|Time|day}} or {{color2|000000|Sun Shard}}|HP=65|Attack=65|Defense=60|SpAtk='''130'''|SpDef=95|Speed=110}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Espeon}}''
As a {{t|Psychic}} type, '''Espeon''' is well-known for a common trait among Pokémon which share its type: a rather high Special Attack and somewhat high Speed. It also has high Special Defense, another common trait among Psychic types. Taking advantage of the [[time]] and [[friendship]] features introduced in [[Generation II]], Espeon evolves from Eevee when it is raised to maximum friendship and gains a level during the daytime.

Espeon takes advantage of the wide amount of [[special move]]s available. With its Ability, {{a|Synchronize}}, it can easily discourage the use of [[status move]]s that give it a [[status ailment]], as that condition would then come back at the Pokémon attacking it. With its [[Dream World]] Ability, {{a|Magic Bounce}}, it can even protect itself and its team from indirect damage through entry hazards. It, alongside Umbreon, is the [[starter Pokémon]] for [[Pokémon Colosseum]].
{{-}}

====Umbreon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Umbreon|type=Dark|ndex=197|ab=Synchronize|abd=Inner Focus|how={{color2|000000|Friendship}} {{color2|000000|Time|at night}} or {{color2|000000|Moon Shard}}|HP=95|Attack=65|Defense=110|SpAtk=60|SpDef='''130'''|Speed=65}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Umbreon}}''
'''Umbreon''' is the second of the two [[Generation II]] Eeveelutions, a {{type|Dark}} Pokémon. Somewhat uniquely, it was the only pure Dark-type in the generation it was introduced in, and also uniquely, is the only Eeveelution better suited to defending rather than attacking. With its two highest stats in Special Defense and Defense, respectively, and its two lowest in the respective offensive stats, Umbreon is much more often used to cause status problems than damage. Umbreon evolves from Eevee when it gains a level during the nighttime with maximum friendship.

Like Espeon, Umbreon has the Ability {{a|Synchronize}}, causing other Pokémon that attempt to use its defensive, status-causing strategy against it to suffer as well. As a Dark type, it is also the only Eeveelution whose type has an immunity (to the {{t|Psychic}} type). It, alongside Espeon, is the [[starter Pokémon]] for [[Pokémon Colosseum]].
{{-}}

===Generation IV===
Though no new Eeveelutions were seen in [[Generation III]], possibly because of the unavailability of Eevee in [[Hoenn]], [[Generation IV]] added another pair of new Eeveelutions, {{p|Leafeon}} and {{p|Glaceon}}. Unlike their evolutionary cousins, they were not available early on in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}. They are, however, available early on in {{game|Platinum}}; this makes Eevee available before the player has received the third Badge.

Generation IV Eeveelutions are obtained by leveling Eevee up in certain areas, another departure from the [[methods of evolution]] in previous generations.

====Leafeon====

|}
:''Main article: {{p|Leafeon}}''
{{DL|Fake Pokémon|Previously false assumptions|A Pokémon often theorized and hoped for}} over the history of the franchise, '''Leafeon''', was finally the realization of the {{type|Grass}} evolution of Eevee. Like Flareon, Leafeon has a relatively high Attack stat, however, its strongest stat is in Defense. Unlike Flareon, it has a diverse movepool, with the rare {{m|Leaf Blade}} counted among its STAB moves. As with the [[Generation II]] Eeveelutions, Leafeon takes on a new manner of evolution: when an Eevee is leveled up where [[Moss Rock|a large, mossy rock]] lies, it will evolve into this Pokémon.

Leafeon has the Abilities {{a|Leaf Guard}} and {{a|Chlorophyll}}. Teamed up with a Flareon, which also gets bonuses from {{weather|sunny}} [[Weather conditions|weather]], these Abilities can be used advantageously, despite the vulnerability to a Fire-type move.
{{-}}

====Glaceon====
{| style="float:right"
| {{Compare|name=Glaceon|type=Ice|ndex=471|ab=Snow Cloak|abd=Ice Body|how={{color2|000000|Level|Level up}} near an {{color2|000000|Ice Rock}}|HP=65|Attack=60|Defense=110|SpAtk='''130'''|SpDef=95|Speed=65}}
|}
:''Main article: {{p|Glaceon}}''
'''Glaceon''' is an {{type|Ice}} evolution of Eevee. Like Espeon, its highest stat is its Special Attack; however, unlike Espeon, it has a higher defense, a common trait among other Ice types. Similarly to Flareon's problem with physical moves, it has a relatively small movepool to work with regarding special moves. Glaceon evolves from Eevee when it is leveled up where [[Ice Rock|an ice-covered rock]] lies.

Like Leafeon, Glaceon's special Abilities, {{a|Snow Cloak}} and {{a|Ice Body}}, has to do with the weather, making it more evasive in {{weather|hail}}storms or healing during them. It is the only Eeveelution to learn one of the two countering moves, with {{m|Mirror Coat}} being one of its moves.
{{-}}

===Generation VI===
[[File:Sylveon.png|right|thumb|150px|{{p|Sylveon}}]]
Eeveelutions once again skip a [[Generation V|Generation]] and introduce a new evolution in [[Generation VI]]: {{p|Sylveon}}. At this time, Sylveon's type, and method of evolution are unknown. It is, however, set to debut in [[PK25]], joining its evolutionary relatives.

==In the anime==
[[File:Virgil Eeveelutions.png|thumb|280px|Eevee and seven of its evolutions in the anime]]
In the anime, the Eeveelutions have been featured together in several episodes, most specifically in ''[[EP040|The Battling Eevee Brothers]]'' under the possession of the [[Eevee brothers]], which focused on the three [[Generation I]] Eeveelutions, as well as Eevee itself, and ''[[EP183|Trouble's Brewing]]'' under the possession of [[Sakura]] and the [[Kimono Girl]]s, which focused on the five Eeveelutions there were as of [[Generation II]], although Sakura' Espeon was still an Eevee during this episode. The seven Eeveelutions were first featured together with an Eevee as a small cameo at the beginning of ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

Several important characters have owned Eevee which have gone on to evolve; other Eeveelutions have also been featured separately from their cousins.

===Gary's Umbreon===
[[Gary Oak]] owns an {{TP|Gary|Umbreon}} which he caught as an Eevee sometime before Ash returned to [[Kanto]] from the [[Orange Archipelago|Orange Islands]].

It is one of his main Pokémon, having appeared nearly every time he himself has, and being quite skilled in battle.

===Sakura's Espeon===
[[Sakura]], one of the five [[Kimono Girl]]s, is the owner of an {{TP|Sakura|Espeon}}, while the rest of her sisters own the four other Eeveelutions that were known in [[Generation II]].

===May's Glaceon===
[[File:Ursula Flareon Vaporeon.png|thumb|250px|Ursula's Vaporeon and Flareon]]
{{an|May}}, who is the first — and so far only — main anime character to have owned an Eevee, evolved hers into {{TP|May|Glaceon}} on a visit to [[Sinnoh]] for the [[Wallace Cup]].

===Johanna's Umbreon===
[[Johanna]] has an Umbreon that debuted in ''[[DP139|Strategy Begins at Home!]]''. It joined {{TP|Johanna|Glameow}} to help train against its Trainer's daughter: Dawn. It later did the same in [[SS024]].

===Zoey's Leafeon===
[[Zoey]] has a Leafeon that debuted in ''[[DP155|Double-Time Battle Training!]]''. It was used in a practice tag Double Battle with her Kirlia. It reappeared in ''[[DP176|Coming Full Festival Circle!]]'' alongside her {{p|Mismagius}} in the semi-finals of the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival]] where it defeated [[Nando's Kricketune]] and {{p|Lopunny}}.
[[File:CoroCoro March 2013 p13.png|thumb|right|200px|PK25 promotional art featuring Pikachu, and all of the Eeveelutions so far]]
===Ursula's Vaporeon and Flareon===
[[Ursula]] used two Eevee in her appeal for the [[Grand Festival]] in the ''[[DP174|Last Call, First Round!]]''. She evolved them into Vaporeon and Flareon as part of the act.

===Volkner's Jolteon===
[[Volkner]] used a Jolteon in ''[[DP179|The Eighth Wonder of the Sinnoh World!]]'' in Ash's Gym battle, it battled and lost to {{AP|Infernape}}. It is the only Eeveelution to be used by a [[Gym Leader]] in the anime.

===Cynthia's Glaceon===
[[Cynthia]] used a Glaceon in ''[[BW085|All for the Love of Meloetta!]]'' to freeze part of a river. She and {{Ash}} then broke up the ice so it could be used to cool down a sick {{an|Meloetta}}.

===Virgil's Team===
[[Virgil]] owns an Eevee and every one of its then-known final forms. They debuted together in ''[[BW102|Team Eevee and the Pokémon Rescue Squad!]]'' where he used them in his mountain rescue duties. He also used them to fight through the [[Vertress Conference]], which he won.

===[[PK25]]===
An upcoming Pikachu short for [[M16]] is going to feature every Eevee evolution, featuring Sylveon's anime debut.
{{-}}
==In the manga==
===In the Electric Tale of Pikachu manga===
In the chapter ''[[ET06|To Evolve or Not to Evolve, That is the Question!]]'', {{Ash}} and [[Mikey]] fight together against the [[Eevee brothers]] so that Mikey and his Eevee may be accepted into the secret fellowship, The Knights of the E Stone. Each of Mikey's brothers owns one of Eevee's evolutions which was known at the time ({{p|Vaporeon}}, {{p|Jolteon}} and {{p|Flareon}}), and Mikey's Eevee must fight each of its evolutions to prove its worth despite being an unevolved Pokémon.

===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[Vee]] was featured as a Pokémon [[Team Rocket]] experimented on with the use of the [[Eevee Bio-Engineering Scheme]]. This allowed Eevee to freely evolve into any of the [[Generation I]] Eeveelutions. After some time under {{adv|Red}}'s ownership however, Vee evolved into an {{p|Espeon}}, and the ability was eliminated.

==In the TCG==
In the [[Pokémon Trading Card Game]], many sets featuring the Eeveelutions have been released. Commonly, all of them will be released within the same expansion set, much as {{TCG ID|Jungle|Flareon|3}}, {{TCG ID|Jungle|Jolteon|4}}, and {{TCG ID|Jungle|Vaporeon|12}} were originally released in the {{TCG|Jungle}} expansion.

Included with the {{TCG|Skyridge}} expansion, also, is a {{TCG|Theme Deck}} by the name of {{TCG|Eeveelution}}, which features the original three Eeveelutions as the focus. However, the deck only includes the three [[Generation I]] Eeveelutions: whereas {{TCG ID|Skyridge|Umbreon|H30}} was released in the set, Espeon was not.

There have also been several {{TCG|deck archetype|deck archetypes}} that revolve around the Eeveelutions, mostly due to their versatility and their lack of a unanimous weakness. One of the most recent is {{TCG|Eeveelutions}}, which utilizes {{TCG|Pokémon-ex|Pokémon-ex variants}} of all five then-known Eeveelutions. The use of this archetype has been assisted by the release of a great many {{TCG|Energy card}}s that provide more than one type of Energy, such as {{TCG|Rainbow Energy}}. In {{TCG|Majestic Dawn}}, {{TCG|Glaceon}} and {{TCG|Leafeon}} were introduced to the TCG, as well as including all previous Eeveelutions. The most recent expansion to include the Eevee family is {{TCG|Dark Explorers}}, including all but Sylveon.

==Trivia==
* All of the Eeveelutions learn a new move every four levels up to level 45 in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}. In Generation IV and {{2v2|Black|White}}, they each learned a new move every seven levels up to level 71{{sup/4|DP}} or 78{{sup/4|PtHGSS}}{{sup/5|BW}}.
* All of the Eeveelutions so far have types whose moves were formerly governed solely by the {{stat|Special Attack}} stat. The only formerly all-special type not yet covered is {{t|Dragon}}.
* Each Eeveelution has identical [[Base stats|base stat]] totals, as well as the same 130-110-95-65-65-60 amounts. What differs among them is which amount is allotted to which stat.
** Espeon and Glaceon both have their highest base stat in Special Attack, as well as the same stats in HP and Special Defense. The other stats, however, vary.
** Leafeon is the only Eeveelution whose base stat in Special Defense is lower than 95.
** No Eeveelution so far has either HP or Special Defense as its lowest base stat.
* In the TCG, out of the seven Eeveelutions, only two share a type: Glaceon and Vaporeon, which both appear as {{TCG|Water}} Pokémon.
* Eevee and all of the Eeveelutions each have a [[catch rate]] of 45.
* Vaporeon is the only Eeveelution that does not share any weakness with another. Flareon and Jolteon are weak to {{type|Ground}} moves, Espeon, Umbreon and Leafeon are weak to {{type|Bug}} moves, Umbreon and Glaceon are weak to {{type|Fighting}} moves, and Leafeon and Glaceon are weak to {{type|Fire}} moves.
* {{p|Flareon}} is the only Eeveelution who has a type advantage over more than one other Eeveelution (being {{p|Leafeon}} and {{p|Glaceon}}).
* Espeon is the only Eeveelution not to have a type advantage over another at all (Vaporeon is strong against Flareon, Jolteon is strong against Vaporeon, Flareon is strong against both Leafeon and Glaceon, Umbreon is strong against Espeon, Leafeon is strong against Vaporeon and Glaceon is strong against Leafeon).
* A chapter of [[Magical Pokémon Journey]], ''[[PPP31|Eevee-Lu-Tion]]'', parodies this term. ({{TP|Coconut|Eevee}} and [[Lu]] are the names of two characters from the Magical Pokémon Journey manga).
**Despite this, most of Eevee's evolutions up to Generation II were not featured in this manga series. Only {{OBP|Vaporeon|MPJ}} makes an appearance in ''[[PPPB10|The Master Plan... for Romance!]]''.
* The [[remake]]s for [[Generation I]] and [[Generation II]] are incapable of obtaining any Eeveelutions that were introduced after that particular generation. The lack of a clock system prevents Espeon and Umbreon from being obtained in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}, and the lack of the [[Moss Rock]] and [[Ice Rock]] prevents Leafeon and Glaceon from being obtained in {{game|HeartGold and SoulSilver|s}}.
* Despite Eevee being obtainable before the [[Pokémon League]] in {{2v2|Black|White|2}}, it can not evolve into Leafeon or Glaceon until after the Elite Four is defeated, unless it is traded to {{2v2|Black|White}}, evolved, and then traded back. This is because [[Twist Mountain]] and [[Pinwheel Forest]] are inaccessible.
If Jolteon's and Leafeon's hidden ability are activated Jolteon will have the highest base speed total and Leafeon will have the second place.

==thank you==
Thank you for the kind greetings. I came and joined this wiki comunity to help with the "Pokemon + Nobunagas Ambition" game. I am a huge fan of KOEI and their games, and while i dont know much about pokemon outside the cartoons, i thought i could help by proving information regarding the human characters in the upcoming crossover game

I hope i can be of service [[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] 07:35, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

==I have a question==
First of all thank you for the nice greeting, I apreciate it.
Also I noticed that on your page it said your favorite Pokemon was Evee. I would like to add my favorite Pokemon (Chandelure) to my page, how can I do that?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:15, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're welcome! Do you mean the little tag on my page? First you have to make some edits to the mainspace, so you can gain the ability to create and edit your userpage. Don't ask me how many, I don't know. Once you can do that, add <code><nowiki>{{Template:User Favorite|609|Chandelure}}</nowiki></code> to your page. For more information, look {{bp|Usertag|here}}. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 07:28, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==Thank you==
Yes, the tag is very nice, and thanks for letting me know!
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:49, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

:You'll need to make several mainspace edits before you are able to edit your userpage. I don't know the exact number, but it is several. By the way, you don't need to create a new header every time you add to a talkpage. You can just click the "edit" button next to the header where the conversation started.

==Can you help me?==
Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said). So I was sort of wondering if you possibly have a simple easy task I could do to help out the wiki?

==Just one last question==
Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section? I mostly noticed appearance is basically only used for pokemon and not for the human characters but I looked at another stub for a trainer class and it listed a appearance for both characters but it was in the section where game information was usually located. Well thanks for your help, bye!

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page.

:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest).

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

However, as there are currently over six hundred Pokémon, it is difficult to remove all the trivia at once. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 09:29, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

== "Out of three Pokemon, so not notable" ==

Since this is noting a record, and not a peculiar trait, I don't see how this notability requirement enters into it. Would you remove the similar record from the Hydreigon article if it was shared with two other species? [[User:Yvnr|Yvnr]] ([[User talk:Yvnr|talk]]) 07:54, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

== Regarding Tyranitar ==

About Tyranitar that was so stupid of me :3. I don't know how to describe it but if you look above the scaled (a reference from Larvitar's page)blue rhombus you can see the armor fom the lower body is not connected to the armor on the upper body.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 08:46, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
:You mean that the scales overlap? [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 09:29, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
::Yes![[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 09:53, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
:::That doesn't mean they aren't connected. Just that they overlap and you can't see where they connect. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:32, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

== Regarding Mew's name origin ==

According to Webster's Universal English Thesaurus:
mew vb confine, coop, encase, enclose, imprison;cast, change, mold, shed.
That is why I said Mew's name origin comes from the word (don't worry I'm going to change it into verb when I edit)mew.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 12:29, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
::Just because a word can mean something, doesn't mean that it does in every case. The usage of the word in this way seems unlikely (and therefore not notable) in Mew's origin. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:32, 31 March 2013 (UTC)

Gelato Gelato: Just because it is based on a dinosaur doesn't mean its reptilian.

'''Larvitar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヨーギラス''' ''Yogiras'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Pupitar}} starting at [[level]] 30, which evolves into {{p|Tyranitar}} starting at level 55.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Larvitar are small sage green Pokémon with rocky skin. They have an erect spike on top of their heads, triangular black streak markings below and on the upper corners of their red eyes, and several holes or ports on the sides of their bodies. They also have a scaled red rhombus-shaped belly of sorts. Larvitar have fingerless arms and legs with a single nailed toe and a tail somewhat resembling a pine cone or tunnel-boring machine in appearance.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Their penchant for eating copious amounts of soil could be considered a natural ability. Additionally, Larvitar are capable of loosing a painfully piercing {{m|Screech}} if needed.

===Behavior===
Larvitar are usually quiet. Due to its larval stage, their main interest focuses on eating. Whenever a Larvitar is spotted, it's likely to be seen feeding on soil.

===Habitat===
[[File:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Larvitar usually live in mountains, hills, and sometimes, in caves. The mountains they live in are usually their meals: a single Larvitar can eat a mountain in a few weeks.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Larvitar feeds on soil.

==In the anime==
[[File:Chris Larvitar.png|thumb|right|250px|Larvitar in the anime]]
[[File:Larvitar Egg.png|thumb|right|A Larvitar {{pkmn|Egg}} in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Larvitar]]====
{{Ash}} had a Larvitar he hatched from an {{pkmn|Egg}} given to him by [[Professor Elm]] to deliver to its mother, living on [[Mt. Silver]]. Despite [[Anime move errors|not being able to learn]] {{m|Harden}} in the games, it constantly used it when approached by anyone other than {{Ash}} or {{AP|Pikachu}} prior to ''[[EP264|Mother of All Battles]]''.

====Other====
Larvitar first appeared in ''[[PK10|Pikachu's PikaBoo]]''. {{AP|Pikachu}} and co. invited Larvitar and its friends to a game of Hide 'n' Seek, though Larvitar refused. Later, it was feeling left out and viciously kicked a rock at a lawnmower (which went ridiculously haywire afterwards).

Afterwards, once Pikachu and co., along with Larvitar, destroyed the lawnmower, Larvitar started a new game of Hide 'N' Seek with fellow Pokémon. Larvitar is also shown to fix one of the smaller stones on the larger stone, along with Togepi, whom he had roared at, earlier in the short.

A Larvitar appeared in ''[[BW088|The Mystery of the Missing Cubchoo!]]''. It joined {{an|Chris}}'s team at the end of the episode.

===Minor appearances===
In ''[[AG188|Pinch Healing]]'', a Larvitar was being babysat by a Poké-Sitter named {{an|Matt}}. Ash and {{ashfr}} were helping him with his job. The Larvitar was shy, and used {{m|Sandstorm}} when confronted. By the end of the episode, however, it warmed up to the group, particularly {{an|May}}.

A Larvitar also appeared in ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]'' in [[Jessie]]'s fantasy.

Another Larvitar appeared in ''[[DP141|Challenging a Towering Figure!]]''.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Larvitar Adventures.png|thumb|120px|Larvitar in Pokémon Adventures]]
{{adv|Crystal}}'s [[Archy]] was attacked by a Larvitar and injured five years prior to the plot of the volume, causing it to go on a rampage until Crystal calmed it down. The same Larvitar returned when Crystal returned to [[Mt. Mortar]], tormenting Crystal and Arcanine until her newly-evolved [[Megaree]] defeated it, allowing her to capture it and regain her shattered confidence from failing to catch {{p|Suicune}} earlier in the volume.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===
{{OBP|Red|Pocket Monsters}} caught a Larvitar prior to [[PM104]].

==Trivia==
* Larvitar's sprite animation changed between Pokémon Diamond and Pearl and Pokémon Platinum, but its static sprite did not change.

===Origin===
It appears to share similarities with {{wp|dinosaur}}s.

Its penchant for eating mountains, fences, or probably anything else may come from the legend of the {{wp|Tarasque}}.

====Name origin====
Larvitar is derived from ''{{wp|larva}}''.

Yogiras may be a combination of 幼児 ''yōji'' (baby or child) or 幼生 ''yōsei'' (larva) and 嫌い ''kirai'' (hate). ''Giras'' may derive from ''Gojira'', the Japanese name for the character {{wp|Godzilla}}, or ''Angiras'', the Japanese name for the character {{wp|Anguirus}}. Both are dinosaur-like ''{{wp|tokusatsu}}'' movie monsters that share some characteristics with {{p|Tyranitar}}, its evolution.

== Bias ==

I edited this page because it appeared biased. Tyranitar are not evil Pokémon. As far as I know, the only truly evil Pokémon is {{p|Spiritomb}}. {{unsigned|Ettina}}

== 3D Shiny? ==
Kind of old but should it be noted that in both Pokemon Stadium games that Tyranitar's shiny status in them is pink? [[User:ShinyGlaceon|ShinyGlaceon]] 19:45, 20 February 2010 (UTC)

== Physiology Edit ==
I edited the physiology to change "roof and bottom of the mouth" to "upper and lower jaws" because it sounded rather awkward before.--[[User:Phantomjunkie|Phantomjunkie]] 06:37, 2 July 2010 (UTC)

== Special Abilities ==
Under the description, it says, "Like other Dragon Pokemon..." Is this imply it is dragon-like or Dragon-type? If it is the latter, should it be changed? [[User:Sparky elemental|Sparky]] 14:20, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
:Tyranitar isn't a Dragon-type. Note that it actually says "Like some Dragon Pokémon"; i.e. that Tyranitar is being compared to Dragons. —'''darklord[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|trom]]''' 20:40, 20 July 2010 (UTC)
::Sorry, I misread it. [[User:Sparky elemental|Sparky]] 13:02, 21 July 2010 (UTC)

== Uh....... ==
I think someone mentioned this on Metagross's talk page but doesn't Tyranitar, along with Dragonite, have a rare chance of appearing in the wild in B/W by shaking grass spots? Serebii says Route 15 but can anyone else confirm this? [[User:Shiramu Kuromu|Shiramu Kuromu]] 00:00, 13 November 2010 (UTC)

== Black and White Locations ==

I have Pokemon White version and I caught a Tyranitar at lvl 50 in Route 15, where all those hiker people are and you have to use strength on the boulders. It's hard to find though, it's rare. There are also wild Pupitars too, they're slightly rare.

[[User:Nyororas|Nyororas]] 07:17, 19 November 2010 (UTC)

:It's there already. --[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:50, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

== What looks like a pupitar is on tyrantar's chest. ==

Should we include this in physiology? [[User:Nightgrey|Nightgrey]] 03:51, 18 May 2012 (UTC)
:No.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:54, 18 May 2012 (UTC)

== Highest Base stat Total ==

Shouldn't it be noted that he has the highest base stat total of all Rock type, Despite that he is not a legendary Pokmeon
Also the same for Dark types along with Hydreigon. --[[User:Hydra3dragon|$%$HYDRA3DRAGON$%$]] ([[User talk:Hydra3dragon|talk]]) 06:26, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

== Tyranitar's armor ==

Have any of you guys notice that Tyranitar's upper armor is not connected to the lower armor.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 13:00, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato

'''Slaking''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ケッキング''' ''Kekking'') is a {{type|Normal}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Vigoroth}} starting at [[level]] 36. It is the final form of {{p|Slakoth}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Slaking are large, bulky, ape-like Pokémon. Most of their fur is brown in coloration, along with the semi-circle patterning encircling their eyes, but their face, chest, hands and feet are lighter in color. Their brows are thick and jutting. Slaking have a white collar of fur around their necks, extending towards the top of their head in a small tuft, somewhat resembling a bonnet. Slaking also have a large, pink, pig like nose.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
While this Pokémon doesn't appear to do much most of the time, it has immense physical strength, stamina, and surprisingly enough, speed. Much like other Normal types, it can be taught quite a number of elemental attacks.

===Behavior===
Slaking are the laziest of all Pokémon. They spend most of their time lying in grassy fields to eat, barely doing anything; however, when threatened, they will suddenly get up and strike with great power. If the grass they've eaten around them is gone, they move to a new spot with more grass.

===Habitat===
[[File:Forest.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Forest Pokémon}}]]
Slaking live in dense forests, but are very difficult to find.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Slaking usually eat grass that is in reach of them. Slaking also eat fruit, but they just wait until the fruits fall down from the trees instead of just climbing up and picking them.

==In the anime==
[[File:Norman Slaking.png|right|thumb|250px|Slaking in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Norman's Slaking]]====
{{TP|Norman|Slaking}} made its debut appearance in ''[[AG069|Love, Petalburg Style]]'', belonging to {{an|May}}'s father, [[Norman]], the [[Gym Leader]] of [[Petalburg City]]. In [[AG070|the following episode]], {{Ash}}'s {{AP|Grovyle|Sceptile}} defeated it in battle, winning Ash the {{badge|Balance}}. Slaking appeared again in ''[[DP079|Strategy With a Smile!]]'' watching the [[Wallace Cup]] on television with Norman.

===Minor appearances===
A Slaking appeared in the opening of ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]''.

A giant Slaking appeared in ''[[AG179|Slaking Kong]]'', but it was a robot controlled by {{TRT}}.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexbody|AG069|Slaking|May's Pokédex|Slaking, the Lazy Pokémon. Slaking lives most of its life {{m|Slack Off|asleep}}, eating only grasses that grow within its reach.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Advanced Generation''|Hoenn}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Norman Slaking Adventures.png|thumb|[[Norman's Slaking]] as seen in [[Pokémon Adventures]]]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{main|Norman's Slaking}}
[[Norman]]'s signature Pokémon is a {{TP|Norman|Slaking}}, just as in the games. Although it would seem that its {{a|Truant|ability}} would be of major hindrance, he shows that by having a {{p|Spinda}} tag alongside it and use {{m|Skill Swap}} in times of need, its impressive strength and speed would be wielded to their maximum. Additionally, the move {{m|Bulk Up}} allows it to bolster its stats even more.

{{adv|Emerald}} used a Slaking during his {{DL|Battle Frontier (Generation III)|Battle Factory}} challenge. Thanks to {{m|Slack Off}}, it was able to outlast a {{p|Hitmonlee}} despite its type and speed disadvantages. After the battle, it was swapped with a {{p|Linoone}}.

[[Palace Maven Spenser]] also used a Slaking against the young boy, but their battle was not seen.

==In the TCG==

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===

===Pokédex entries===

==Trivia==
* Tied with {{p|Regigigas}}, Slaking has the highest {{stat|Attack}} stat out of all {{type|Normal}} Pokémon
* At 670, Slaking has the highest base stat total of any non-legendary Pokémon, tying with the legendary Pokémon {{p|Groudon}}, {{p|Kyogre}}, and {{p|Regigigas}}. This makes it the only non-legendary Pokémon to have a base stat total of over 600.
* In double and triple battles, one can nullify Slaking's Truant ability by using either {{m|Skill Swap}} or {{m|Gastro Acid}}. Several Trainers in {{game|Emerald}} use this power, including [[Norman]] during the player's rematches with him. [[Cipher]] Head [[Evice]] -- the final boss and main antagonist of [[Pokémon Colosseum]] -- is the very first Trainer in any game to use this tactic. Without Truant, Slaking can make full use of its impressive stats. This can also be done in single battles by using a [[contact]] move on a Pokémon with {{a|Mummy}}.
* A {{DL|Prototype Pokémon and characters|Godzillante & Gorillaimo|pre-alpha sketch}} depicts a Pokémon that bears a striking resemblance to Slaking.

===Origin===
It appears to draw inspiration from {{wp|sloth}}s and some form of {{wp|ape}}. The inspiration from sloths makes it somewhat resemble a {{wp|Megatherium}}, also known as the Giant Ground Sloth, however, it more closely resembles a {{wp|gorilla}}.

====Name origin====
Slaking is a combination of ''slake'' (to slacken) or a corruption of ''slack'' (to become lazy) and ''king''. It may also be a play on ''slacking''.

Kekking may be a combination of 怠ける ''namakeru'' (to be idle), 欠勤 ''kekkin'' (absence), or 怠け者 ''namakemono'' (sloth) and ''king''.

==thank you==
Thank you for the kind greetings. I came and joined this wiki comunity to help with the "Pokemon + Nobunagas Ambition" game. I am a huge fan of KOEI and their games, and while i dont know much about pokemon outside the cartoons, i thought i could help by proving information regarding the human characters in the upcoming crossover game

I hope i can be of service [[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] 07:35, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

==I have a question==
First of all thank you for the nice greeting, I apreciate it.
Also I noticed that on your page it said your favorite Pokemon was Evee. I would like to add my favorite Pokemon (Chandelure) to my page, how can I do that?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:15, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're welcome! Do you mean the little tag on my page? First you have to make some edits to the mainspace, so you can gain the ability to create and edit your userpage. Don't ask me how many, I don't know. Once you can do that, add <code><nowiki>{{Template:User Favorite|609|Chandelure}}</nowiki></code> to your page. For more information, look {{bp|Usertag|here}}. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 07:28, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==Thank you==
Yes, the tag is very nice, and thanks for letting me know!
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:49, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==I can't find the mainspace==
Sorry if I am bothering you, but I am new to Bulbapedia. Is there a link somwhere?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:02, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. "Mainspace" refers to most Bulbapedia pages that don't start with "talk:" or "user:". For example, the edit you made to {{p|Axew}}'s article counts as a mainspace edit. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:08, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
==it still will not let me edit my userpage==
By the way I'm glad i'm not bothering you, I don't like to do that to people
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:22, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You'll need to make several mainspace edits before you are able to edit your userpage. I don't know the exact number, but it is several. By the way, you don't need to create a new header every time you add to a talkpage. You can just click the "edit" button next to the header where the conversation started. You really only need to make a new header when starting a new conversation. {{unsigned|Crystal Talian}}
:Thanks, I will go make some edits now.
Also I was making a new header every time becuase I didn't know how to reply at that time
[[User:Chandelure1166|Chandelure1166]] 08:39, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
::No problem! And I figured it was something like that. I was just letting you know. =3 [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:43, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==Can you help me?==
Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said). So I was sort of wondering if you possibly have a simple easy task I could do to help out the wiki?
--[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] 23:00, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

==Just one last question==
Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section? I mostly noticed appearance is basically only used for pokemon and not for the human characters but I looked at another stub for a trainer class and it listed a appearance for both characters but it was in the section where game information was usually located. Well thanks for your help, bye!

== Urgent ==

Hello Crystal Talian, please check your e-mail{{tt|*|the one which you used to register on Bulbapedia}} as soon as possible, awaiting for your reply. Thank you. ♫♪ [[User:Adyniz|'''エイデ''']][[User talk:Adyniz|'''ィニズ''']] ♪♫ 10:47, 1 July 2012 (UTC)

== Signature move ==

Where is the problem? KyleRGiggs 09:01, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
:Wait until Force Fire replies to your question before reverting him. However, I believe the problem is that this is a move tutor move. It wasn't that only Blastoise could learn, but that the tutor refused to teach it to anyone else. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 09:02, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
::I am not reverting him actually, please check what I revert. KyleRGiggs 09:13, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

::::Sorry to butt in but, subst is usually used for message templates like <nowiki>{{subst:Userspace warning}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{subst:Preview button}}</nowiki>, not just for <nowiki>{{subst:Welcome}}</nowiki>.

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
:I understand your concern, and I agree that it is a good point. The next time I have the chance to talk with staff, I will bring up your point, and we will let you know when a decision is made on the subject. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 01:10, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

::Fair enough. Give me a heads-up on my talk page when that occurs; I constantly refer back to things here more often than anywhere else, so I'll see it. Let the staff know I'm willing to take this on myself as well, and if I do make an odd mistake somewhere, they're welcome to clean up after me where necessary. Hopefully that won't happen very often. =D [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:14, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

:First, you're welcome. =3 And do you mean the usertags? Well, first you need to do some editing so you can start your own userpage. Don't ask me how many edits you need to do, it's a hidden number. Anyway, once you do that, you can look {{bp|Usertag|here}} for information on usertags. Have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 06:06, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page. It looks like I now have the right to create pages, so could you please tell me a bit about creating them? Sorry to bother you. The editing help doesn't help. LOL! Either way, I would really appreciate it if you helped me out. [[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 21:50, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest). I don't think it would be needed for any pages at the moment, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:28, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for your help but I think I would just annoy the staff...[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 02:37, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

== Moving Sections ==

Crystal i am new and i made a new section on a page and how do i move it to a new place([[User:Icestar649|Icestar649]] ([[User talk:Icestar649|talk]]) 22:22, 19 December 2012 (UTC))
:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

Hello Crystal. My brother made a account (his user name is NOBODY) and he for some reason isn't getting a conformation email no matter how many times he clicks on the thing to get it. I'm not exactly sure who to ask about this and I thought you might know. If you can tell me who to ask that would be great. Have a nice day. --[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 20:11, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

:If you are leaving the site and wish for your page to be deleted, staff will take care of that for you. The reason why you can't edit your page is because new users have to make a certain number of mainspace contributions before they are allowed to edit their userpages. I realize that you are not a new user, but you have not made any edits since this rule was put in place a long time ago. So, the restriction is having an effect on you as well.

== "If there are six, it's not notable" ==

Technically, it's only five, since Deoxys differs via forme. Is five a small enough number out of 650 to be deemed notable? Sweeping statistics like this at a glance are of considerable use to people who play competitively. [[User:Jumpman16|Jumpman16]] ([[User talk:Jumpman16|talk]]) 03:54, 11 February 2013 (UTC)
:I'm afraid that five is still too many. We also don't typically include competitive based trivia. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:00, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== I wanted to ask before reverting this image to an earlier version ==

Somehow, [[[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Shiny_Sandshrew_IV.png]]] seems like a hazard to epileptics. Or non epileptics. Or any one, really --[[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] ([[User talk:Shadowater|talk]]) 07:14, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

'''Beldum''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ダンバル''' ''Dumbber'') is a dual-type {{2t|Steel|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Metang}} starting at [[level]] 20, which evolves into {{p|Metagross}} starting at level 45.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Beldum is a robotic lifeform that has a long body with a set of claws sticking out of its rear end. It has one large eye, which consits of red pupils and black irises, in the center of its nearly-round head, for some unknown reason there is a hole near it's eyer, which is set into a ball-and-socket joint at its front end. It has a short crest above its head, projecting from its body. Even though Beldum and its evolved forms are mechanical creatures, they still have emotions, the need to eat and a way of reproducing. Beldum has been said to be related to {{p|Magnemite}} due to the fact that both of them are partially Steel-type, create electromagnetic waves to float in the air, and probably due to the fact that they evolve in a similar fashion; it takes two Beldum to evolve into a Metang and two Metang to evolve into a Metagross.

====Gender differences====
Beldum is a genderless species.

===Special abilities===
Beldum's body is magnetized, and it uses magnetism to move, communicate, and control its attacks. It is said to be related to Magnemite, but Beldum's magnetism focuses on {{t|Psychic}} moves instead of {{t|Electric}} moves. Beldum's skills in battle are extremely limited as it is only capable of using {{m|Take Down}} without special [[Move Tutor|tutoring]].

===Behavior===
Beldum sometimes gather in swarms, communicating with each other telepathically.

[[File:Roughterrain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Rough-terrain Pokémon}}]]
===Habitat===
Beldum are scarce in the wild, but they do tend to inhabit areas with rugged terrain.
Also, when they sleep, they anchor themselves to a cliff using their hooks.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==Trivia==
* Beldum's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Hoenn Pokédex number|Hoenn Pokédex]] and the [[List of Pokémon by Fiore Browser number|Fiore Browser]] are the same: 190.
* Beldum, along with its evolved forms, are the only non-legendary Pokémon to have a catch rate of 3, which is the lowest possible. In [[Generation III]], this low catch rate would never take effect, unless the player is [[cheating]] or encountering a {{p|Ditto}} that transforms into Beldum. However, in [[Generation IV]], wild Beldum can be encountered during swarms on {{rt|228|Sinnoh}}.
* Up until {{game|Platinum}}, Beldum could not learn any move except {{m|Take Down}} and incidentally could not damage {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon outside of {{m|Struggle}}.
* Despite depictions of Beldum levitating in the {{pkmn|anime}} and Pokédex entries noting that they are able to float through the air by employing powerful electromagnetic waves, Beldum does not have the Ability {{a|Levitate}}. However, as of [[Generation IV]], Beldum's evolution {{p|Metang}} can learn {{m|Magnet Rise}} which simulates Levitate for a short period of time.
* Beldum's evolutionary family evolves into their next-stage forms the earliest of all the [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]]—Beldum into {{p|Metang}} at level 20, and {{p|Metang}} into {{p|Metagross}} at level 45.
* Beldum is the only member of a pseudo-legendary Pokémon evolutionary line that only learns one move by level up.

===Origin===
Beldum seems to be a magnetic robot based on a {{wp|dumbbell}}. It also bears a partial resemblance to a bullet, which suits its jet-like flying ability and single move. It also resembles a limb of a {{p|Metang}} or {{p|Metagross}}, a reference to how it evolves.

===Name origin===
Beldum and Dumbber are derived from ''{{wp|dumbbell}}'', a small weight used in weight training.

'''Escavalier''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''シュバルゴ''' ''Chevargo'') is a dual-type {{2t|Bug|Steel}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Karrablast}} when [[trade]]d for a {{p|Shelmet}}, which evolves into {{p|Accelgor}} simultaneously. Neither evolves if at least one holds an {{DL|Evolutionary stone|Everstone}} during the trade.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Escavalier's head sports a feature quite resembling the red horsehair crest of a knight’s helmet, with a visor underneath it. The shoulders of Escavalier have large, round metal ridges, from which its thin black arms extend. The arms are tipped with red-striped jousting-lance like protrusions. Escavalier’s face and torso are bare of armor, but its lower body is concealed within a swirled gray shell with a red spike on the underside, which is presumably the shell of a Shelmet.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Its tough armor protects its entire body. They fly around at high speed, jabbing foes with their pointed spears.

===Behavior===
Escavalier are brave and will face against any challenge even if in trouble.

===Habitat===

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Escavalier anime.png|250px|thumb|right|Escavalier in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
{{an|Bianca}} owns an Escavalier, having traded her {{p|Shelmet}} for [[Professor Juniper]]'s {{p|Karrablast}} in ''[[BW063|Evolution Exchange Excitement!]]''. After the [[evolution]], Escavalier refused to obey Bianca, so Bianca and her Escavalier and Professor Juniper and her {{p|Accelgor}} had a [[Tag Battle]] against {{Ash}} and his {{AP|Boldore}} and {{an|Cilan}} and his {{TP|Cilan|Crustle}} so Escavalier would gain Bianca's trust.

===Minor appearances===
Escavalier first debuted in ''[[BW038|Movie Time! Zorua in "The Legend of the Pokémon Knight"!]]''. It appeared in ''Wonder Fighters'', a movie based on the [[Wonder Launcher]], where it battled a {{p|Golurk}}.

==Trivia==
* Escavalier has the highest {{stat|Attack}} of all {{type|Bug}} Pokémon, and it is tied with {{p|Metagross}} and {{p|Excadrill}} for highest Attack of all {{type|Steel}} Pokémon.
* Escavalier and {{p|Ferrothorn}} are both tied with being the slowest fully evolved Pokémon that are part of an evolutionary line with only 20 base {{stat|Speed}}.
** Coincidentally, both are {{type|Steel}} Pokémon introduced in [[Generation V]].

===Origin===
Karrablast and Escavalier seem to be based on the Japanese Snail-eating Beetle (''damaster blaptoides'') or the maimaikaburi due the fact they feed on snails and having an elongated head/thorax allowing it to get right up into the snail shell.

Escavalier's design is based on a jousting knight. It is also slightly based on a {{wp|cuirass}}.

====Name origin====
Escavalier may be a combination of ''cavalier'' (French for ''mounted soldier'') or ''chevalier'' (French for ''knight'') and ''escargot'' (French for ''snail''). It may also refer to ''{{wp|Excalibur}}'' ({{wp|King Arthur|King Arthur's}} legendary sword).

Chevargo is a combination of ''chevalier'' and ''escargot''.

==thank you==
Thank you for the kind greetings. I came and joined this wiki comunity to help with the "Pokemon + Nobunagas Ambition" game. I am a huge fan of KOEI and their games, and while i dont know much about pokemon outside the cartoons, i thought i could help by proving information regarding the human characters in the upcoming crossover game

I hope i can be of service [[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] 07:35, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

==I have a question==
First of all thank you for the nice greeting, I apreciate it.
Also I noticed that on your page it said your favorite Pokemon was Evee. I would like to add my favorite Pokemon (Chandelure) to my page, how can I do that?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:15, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're welcome! Do you mean the little tag on my page? First you have to make some edits to the mainspace, so you can gain the ability to create and edit your userpage. Don't ask me how many, I don't know. Once you can do that, add <code><nowiki>{{Template:User Favorite|609|Chandelure}}</nowiki></code> to your page. For more information, look {{bp|Usertag|here}}. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 07:28, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==Thank you==
Yes, the tag is very nice, and thanks for letting me know!
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:49, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==I can't find the mainspace==
Sorry if I am bothering you, but I am new to Bulbapedia. Is there a link somwhere?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:02, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. "Mainspace" refers to most Bulbapedia pages that don't start with "talk:" or "user:". For example, the edit you made to {{p|Axew}}'s article counts as a mainspace edit. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:08, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
==it still will not let me edit my userpage==
By the way I'm glad i'm not bothering you, I don't like to do that to people
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:22, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You'll need to make several mainspace edits before you are able to edit your userpage. I don't know the exact number, but it is several. By the way, you don't need to create a new header every time you add to a talkpage. You can just click the "edit" button next to the header where the conversation started. You really only need to make a new header when starting a new conversation. {{unsigned|Crystal Talian}}
:Thanks, I will go make some edits now.
Also I was making a new header every time becuase I didn't know how to reply at that time
[[User:Chandelure1166|Chandelure1166]] 08:39, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
::No problem! And I figured it was something like that. I was just letting you know. =3 [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:43, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==Can you help me?==
Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said). So I was sort of wondering if you possibly have a simple easy task I could do to help out the wiki?
--[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] 23:00, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

==Just one last question==
Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section? I mostly noticed appearance is basically only used for pokemon and not for the human characters but I looked at another stub for a trainer class and it listed a appearance for both characters but it was in the section where game information was usually located. Well thanks for your help, bye!

== Signature move ==

Where is the problem? KyleRGiggs 09:01, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
:Wait until Force Fire replies to your question before reverting him. However, I believe the problem is that this is a move tutor move. It wasn't that only Blastoise could learn, but that the tutor refused to teach it to anyone else. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 09:02, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
::I am not reverting him actually, please check what I revert. KyleRGiggs 09:13, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

== Using templates ==

:I thought I did? I didn't copy the code, at least. I wasn't sure what the what the template code was, so I mimicked the way you call a welcome template. I guess the "subst" was unnecessary. Ah, well. Noted. Thank you. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 21:39, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

:::Got it. I'll be sure to remember for next time. Thanks! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 21:43, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
::::Sorry to butt in but, subst is usually used for message templates like <nowiki>{{subst:Userspace warning}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{subst:Preview button}}</nowiki>, not just for <nowiki>{{subst:Welcome}}</nowiki>.

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
:I understand your concern, and I agree that it is a good point. The next time I have the chance to talk with staff, I will bring up your point, and we will let you know when a decision is made on the subject.

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page. It looks like I now have the right to create pages, so could you please tell me a bit about creating them? Sorry to bother you. The editing help doesn't help. LOL! Either way, I would really appreciate it if you helped me out. [[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 21:50, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest). I don't think it would be needed for any pages at the moment, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:28, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

:You're welcome! Do you mean the little tag on my page? First you have to make some edits to the mainspace, so you can gain the ability to create and edit your userpage. Don't ask me how many, I don't know. Once you can do that, add <code><nowiki>{{Template:User Favorite|609|Chandelure}}</nowiki></code> to your page. For more information, look {{bp|Usertag|here}}.

Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said). So I was sort of wondering if you possibly have a simple easy task I could do to help out the wiki?

Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section? I mostly noticed appearance is basically only used for pokemon and not for the human characters but I looked at another stub for a trainer class and it listed a appearance for both characters but it was in the section where game information was usually located. Well thanks for your help, bye!

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page.

:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}.

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest).

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

And I would aalso like to add "despite its Pokédex entries it can be damage by steel-type.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 05:34, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato
:Pokedex entries do not necessarily relate to in-game mechanics. The games can only do so much. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 05:36, 30 March 2013 (UTC)
::How about in the trivia section of Escavalier: "Although Escavalier's Pokédex entry states that it flies around at high speed, its base speed is among the lowest of all known Pokémon, at just 20, nor can this species have the Ability Levitate.".[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 08:42, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato

== "Out of three Pokemon, so not notable" ==

Since this is noting a record, and not a peculiar trait, I don't see how this notability requirement enters into it. Would you remove the similar record from the Hydreigon article if it was shared with two other species? [[User:Yvnr|Yvnr]] ([[User talk:Yvnr|talk]]) 07:54, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

== Regarding Tyranitar ==

About Tyranitar that was so stupid of me :3. I don't know how to describe it but if you look above the scaled (a reference from Larvitar's page)blue rhombus you can see the armor fom the lower body is not connected to the armor on the upper body.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 08:46, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato

==thank you==
Thank you for the kind greetings. I came and joined this wiki comunity to help with the "Pokemon + Nobunagas Ambition" game. I am a huge fan of KOEI and their games, and while i dont know much about pokemon outside the cartoons, i thought i could help by proving information regarding the human characters in the upcoming crossover game

I hope i can be of service [[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] 07:35, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

==I have a question==
First of all thank you for the nice greeting, I apreciate it.
Also I noticed that on your page it said your favorite Pokemon was Evee. I would like to add my favorite Pokemon (Chandelure) to my page, how can I do that?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:15, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're welcome! Do you mean the little tag on my page? First you have to make some edits to the mainspace, so you can gain the ability to create and edit your userpage. Don't ask me how many, I don't know. Once you can do that, add <code><nowiki>{{Template:User Favorite|609|Chandelure}}</nowiki></code> to your page. For more information, look {{bp|Usertag|here}}.

[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:02, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. "Mainspace" refers to most Bulbapedia pages that don't start with "talk:" or "user:". For example, the edit you made to {{p|Axew}}'s article counts as a mainspace edit. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:08, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:22, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You'll need to make several mainspace edits before you are able to edit your userpage. I don't know the exact number, but it is several. By the way, you don't need to create a new header every time you add to a talkpage. You can just click the "edit" button next to the header where the conversation started.

==Can you help me?==
Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said). So I was sort of wondering if you possibly have a simple easy task I could do to help out the wiki?

==Just one last question==
Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section? I mostly noticed appearance is basically only used for pokemon and not for the human characters but I looked at another stub for a trainer class and it listed a appearance for both characters but it was in the section where game information was usually located. Well thanks for your help, bye!

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
:I understand your concern, and I agree that it is a good point. The next time I have the chance to talk with staff, I will bring up your point, and we will let you know when a decision is made on the subject. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 01:10, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

::Fair enough. Give me a heads-up on my talk page when that occurs; I constantly refer back to things here more often than anywhere else, so I'll see it.

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page. It looks like I now have the right to create pages, so could you please tell me a bit about creating them? Sorry to bother you. The editing help doesn't help. LOL! Either way, I would really appreciate it if you helped me out. [[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 21:50, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest). I don't think it would be needed for any pages at the moment, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:28, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== I wanted to ask before reverting this image to an earlier version ==

Somehow, [[[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Shiny_Sandshrew_IV.png]]] seems like a hazard to epileptics. Or non epileptics. Or any one, really --[[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] ([[User talk:Shadowater|talk]]) 07:14, 12 March 2013 (UTC)
:The current version is fine. I doubt it'll cause any seizures, as the movement is slow and small. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 07:59, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

== About Pupitar? ==

In the Pokédex entries of Pupitar in FireRed and Silver it describes Pupitar as fast, but it is not really that fast for a Pokemon at Level 30. And I would aalso like to add "despite its Pokédex entries it can be damage by steel-type.[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 05:34, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato

::How about in the trivia section of Escavalier: "Although Escavalier's Pokédex entry states that it flies around at high speed, its base speed is among the lowest of all known Pokémon, at just 20, nor can this species have the Ability Levitate.".[[User:Gelato Gelato|Gelato Gelato]] ([[User talk:Gelato Gelato|talk]]) 08:42, 30 March 2013 (UTC)Gelato Gelato

== "Out of three Pokemon, so not notable" ==

Since this is noting a record, and not a peculiar trait, I don't see how this notability requirement enters into it. Would you remove the similar record from the Hydreigon article if it was shared with two other species? [[User:Yvnr|Yvnr]] ([[User talk:Yvnr|talk]]) 07:54, 30 March 2013 (UTC)

'''Tyranitar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''バンギラス''' ''Bangiras'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Dark}} [[pseudo-legendary Pokémon]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Pupitar}} starting at [[level]] 55. It is the final form of {{p|Larvitar}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Tyranitar is a large sage green dinosaur-like Pokémon. The couple of fangs in the upper and lower jaws, and the fingers and toes culminating in claws, contribute to the menacing appearance of this Pokémon.

However, this Pokémon's most prominent body feature is the green, armor-like hide that covers its body. Despite its tough appearance, this hide is flexible enough to allow movement. Many spikes protrude from the back of its head, neck, shoulders and the tip of the tail. The armor also presents a couple of holes at the knees and the back, and four holes at the chest. Its upper body is not directly connected to its lower body. There are also two scaled blue rhombus pieces of armor that cover the creature’s belly and back. Looking closely, this Pokémon resembles a combination of its pre-evolutions.
====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Like some {{t|Dragon}} Pokémon, Tyranitar is capable of learning various elemental attacks, such as {{m|Surf}}, {{m|Flamethrower}}, and {{m|Thunderbolt}}. It can also learn some Dragon-type moves, such as {{m|Dragon Claw}}, and can also learn all three of the {{m|Thunder Fang|elemental}} {{m|Fire Fang|fang}} {{m|Ice Fang|moves}}. Because it's a fully-evolved Pokémon, Tyranitar can learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.

===Behavior===
Like {{p|Ursaring}}, Tyranitar are dangerous Pokémon who are quite protective of their young. They are extremely strong, and their thick, rocky hides give them a good resistance. Because of this, they are always looking forward for a battle, and will not flinch at anything. Despite this, or possibly because the underside of Tyranitar's foot may be somewhat less well-armored than the rest of its body, it can have thorns stuck in its feet in which case the pain can cause it to become angry. If enraged, Tyranitar sets off outstanding earthquakes that can completely change the entire landscape, often representing a major headache for cartographers causing them to redraw maps. Tyranitar is known to display affection to persons that have been helpful to it by nuzzling them.

===Habitat===
[[File:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Tyranitar are very rare in the wild. They live in nests of demolished mountains and can be found in [[Unova]].

===Diet===

==In the anime==
[[File:Mother Tyranitar.png|230px|thumb|right|Tyranitar in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Tyranitar first appeared in ''[[M04|Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]''. It was captured in a [[Dark Ball]] and used by the [[Iron-Masked Marauder]].

When {{Ash}} and company entered the mind of [[Ash's Larvitar]] during ''[[EP263|Address Unown]]'', they saw a vision of Larvitar being separated from its Tyranitar mother. That Tyranitar was seen during [[EP264|the following episode]].

A Pupitar belonging to [[Rico]] evolved into Tyranitar in ''[[AG006|A Poached Ego]]''.

===Minor appearances===
Multiple Tyranitar appeared in ''[[M08|Lucario and the Mystery of Mew]]'' as part of the feuding armies.

A Tyranitar appeared in the opening of ''[[M09|Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'' under the ownership of {{mov|Rebecca}} where it battled against {{ga|Brendan}}'s {{p|Swampert}}.

Tyranitar along with its [[Team A.C.T.|teammates]] had a cameo in ''[[SS019|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters Out of the Gate!]]''. They were considered for the job of rescuing Big Brother Pikachu but were unavailable as they were already on another mission.

In ''[[DP072|Pokémon Ranger and the Kidnapped Riolu! Part Two]]'', a Tyranitar was among the Pokémon used to attack {{an|Dawn}}, {{an|Brock}}, [[Officer Jenny]] and [[Kellyn]].

A Tyranitar appeared in ''[[DP139|A Faux Oak Finish!]]'', where it was angry because it had a splinter in its foot. {{an|Professor Oak}} was able to connect with the Tyranitar and pull the splinter out.

Another Tyranitar appeared in ''[[DP146|Dressed for Jess Success!]]'', where it was one of the Pokémon that entered the Lilypad Town Pokémon Contest.

A Tyranitar appeared in the opening scenes of ''[[M13|Zoroark: Master of Illusions]]''.

A fake yet realistic Tyranitar was used for a movie in ''[[BW082|An Epic Defense Force!]]''.

==In the manga==
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
[[File:Lance Tyranitar Adventures.png|121px|thumb|right|Lance's Tyranitar]]
Prior to the events of {{PAV|8}}, {{adv|Silver}} was given a {{p|Pupitar}} from [[Lance]]. It evolved into Tyranitar prior to Silver's showdown with {{adv|Gold}} in {{PAV|9}}. Silver remarked that Tyranitar's level was so high that "even I can't control it," likely referencing the tendency for traded Pokémon to disobey. Silver eventually returned Tyranitar to Lance, deeming himself still unsuitable to own it.

{{FB|Factory Head|Thorton}} rented a Tyranitar for use in his battle against {{adv|Platinum}} in ''[[PS427|VS. Seedot]]''.

===In the Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Ginji's Rescue Team manga===
{{main|Team A.C.T.}}
The Tyranitar from [[Team A.C.T.]] appears in the [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Ginji's Rescue Team]] manga. He, along with his teammates, is a role model of {{OBP|Mudkip|Ginji's Rescue Team}} and tries to rescue him when he mistakenly believes that [[Ginji]] is a threat to Mudkip's safety.

===In the Pokémon Gold & Silver: The Golden Boys manga===
{{GnB|Black}} unseals the [[Black Tyranitar]] which is {{ci|Cianwood}}'s legendary Pokémon that once wrecked havoc in the [[Johto]] region many years ago. After being unsealed, it does the same thing it did in the past. In the end, {{GnB|Gold}} manages to seal it back with the help of [[Eusine]] and Black.

* Tyranitar has more type weaknesses than any other fully evolved pseudo-legendary Pokémon.
* No other Pokémon has the same [[type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Tyranitar.
* Tyranitar shares the same [[species]] with {{p|Donphan}}. They are both known as the Armor Pokémon.
* Tyranitar in the anime seem to be linked to [[Pokémon poacher|Pokémon poachers]]. Three poachers owned a Tyranitar while another sought after one.
* The Tyranitar from the [[M04|4th movie]] shares the same roar with {{mov|Dialga}} from movies [[M10|10]], [[M11|11]] and [[M12|12]].

===Origin===
Tyranitar seems to be based on {{wp|Godzilla}}, a {{wp|kaiju}} known for its strength, tough skin and ability to shoot beams from its mouth. Godzilla itself was designed by combining three dinosaurs: ''{{wp|Iguanodon}}'', ''{{wp|Stegosaurus}}'' and ''{{wp|Tyrannosaurus}}''.

====Name origin====
Tyranitar is derived from ''tyrant'' or ''{{wp|Tyrannosauroidea|Tyrannosaurus}}'' (derived from the same root).

Bangiras may be a combination of 野蛮 ''yaban'' (savage) or 蛮 ''ban'' (barbarian) and 嫌い ''kirai'' (hate). ''Giras'' may derive from ''Gojira'', the Japanese name for the character {{wp|Godzilla}}, or ''Angiras'', the Japanese name for the character {{wp|Anguirus}}. Both are dinosaur-like ''{{wp|tokusatsu}}'' movie monsters that share some characteristics with Tyranitar.

==thank you==
Thank you for the kind greetings. I came and joined this wiki comunity to help with the "Pokemon + Nobunagas Ambition" game. I am a huge fan of KOEI and their games, and while i dont know much about pokemon outside the cartoons, i thought i could help by proving information regarding the human characters in the upcoming crossover game

I hope i can be of service [[User:Ixbran|Ixbran]] 07:35, 14 January 2012 (UTC)

==I have a question==
First of all thank you for the nice greeting, I apreciate it.
Also I noticed that on your page it said your favorite Pokemon was Evee. I would like to add my favorite Pokemon (Chandelure) to my page, how can I do that?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:15, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're welcome! Do you mean the little tag on my page? First you have to make some edits to the mainspace, so you can gain the ability to create and edit your userpage. Don't ask me how many, I don't know. Once you can do that, add <code><nowiki>{{Template:User Favorite|609|Chandelure}}</nowiki></code> to your page. For more information, look {{bp|Usertag|here}}. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 07:28, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==Thank you==
Yes, the tag is very nice, and thanks for letting me know!
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 07:49, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==I can't find the mainspace==
Sorry if I am bothering you, but I am new to Bulbapedia. Is there a link somwhere?
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:02, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. "Mainspace" refers to most Bulbapedia pages that don't start with "talk:" or "user:". For example, the edit you made to {{p|Axew}}'s article counts as a mainspace edit. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:08, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
==it still will not let me edit my userpage==
By the way I'm glad i'm not bothering you, I don't like to do that to people
[[User:Chandelure1166|Carson]] 08:22, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
:You'll need to make several mainspace edits before you are able to edit your userpage. I don't know the exact number, but it is several. By the way, you don't need to create a new header every time you add to a talkpage. You can just click the "edit" button next to the header where the conversation started. You really only need to make a new header when starting a new conversation. {{unsigned|Crystal Talian}}
:Thanks, I will go make some edits now.
Also I was making a new header every time becuase I didn't know how to reply at that time
[[User:Chandelure1166|Chandelure1166]] 08:39, 23 January 2012 (UTC)
::No problem! And I figured it was something like that. I was just letting you know. =3 [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 08:43, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

==Can you help me?==
Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said). So I was sort of wondering if you possibly have a simple easy task I could do to help out the wiki?
--[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] 23:00, 2 June 2012 (UTC)

==Just one last question==
Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section? I mostly noticed appearance is basically only used for pokemon and not for the human characters but I looked at another stub for a trainer class and it listed a appearance for both characters but it was in the section where game information was usually located. Well thanks for your help, bye!

== Urgent ==

Hello Crystal Talian, please check your e-mail{{tt|*|the one which you used to register on Bulbapedia}} as soon as possible, awaiting for your reply. Thank you. ♫♪ [[User:Adyniz|'''エイデ''']][[User talk:Adyniz|'''ィニズ''']] ♪♫ 10:47, 1 July 2012 (UTC)

== Signature move ==

Where is the problem? KyleRGiggs 09:01, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
:Wait until Force Fire replies to your question before reverting him. However, I believe the problem is that this is a move tutor move. It wasn't that only Blastoise could learn, but that the tutor refused to teach it to anyone else. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 09:02, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
::I am not reverting him actually, please check what I revert. KyleRGiggs 09:13, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
:::Hitting "undo" is reverting. I did check before I said anything. However, the issue appears to have been resolved now. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 09:18, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

== Using templates ==

Instead of copying the code of the template Protect, simply write the template as such: <nowiki>{{Protect}}</nowiki>. [[User:Ht14|'''''ht''''']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 21:36, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
:I thought I did? I didn't copy the code, at least. I wasn't sure what the what the template code was, so I mimicked the way you call a welcome template. I guess the "subst" was unnecessary. Ah, well. Noted. Thank you. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 21:39, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
::Subst is only used for Welcome  template. :) All other templates do not use subst. [[User:Ht14|'''''ht''''']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 21:40, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
:::Got it. I'll be sure to remember for next time. Thanks! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 21:43, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
::::Sorry to butt in but, subst is usually used for message templates like <nowiki>{{subst:Userspace warning}}</nowiki> and <nowiki>{{subst:Preview button}}</nowiki>, not just for <nowiki>{{subst:Welcome}}</nowiki>. I beleive that subst is what signs those automatic message templates for you. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|--Pokemaster]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|97]]''''' 23:12, 1 August 2012 (UTC)
:::::Yeah, I mentioned that. It's hidden, haha, but yeah, what Pokemaster97 said is true. [[User:Ht14|'''''ht''''']][[User talk:Ht14|''14'']] 23:32, 1 August 2012 (UTC)

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
:I understand your concern, and I agree that it is a good point. The next time I have the chance to talk with staff, I will bring up your point, and we will let you know when a decision is made on the subject. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 01:10, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

::Fair enough. Give me a heads-up on my talk page when that occurs; I constantly refer back to things here more often than anywhere else, so I'll see it. Let the staff know I'm willing to take this on myself as well, and if I do make an odd mistake somewhere, they're welcome to clean up after me where necessary. Hopefully that won't happen very often. =D [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:14, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
== thanks for the warm welcome ==
i wanted to thank you for welcoming me and i was wondering how to put those "this user ----" on my page and where to find them [[User:Maggiedroid|Maggiedroid]] ([[User talk:Maggiedroid|talk]]) 04:59, 13 August 2012 (UTC)
:First, you're welcome. =3 And do you mean the usertags? Well, first you need to do some editing so you can start your own userpage. Don't ask me how many edits you need to do, it's a hidden number. Anyway, once you do that, you can look {{bp|Usertag|here}} for information on usertags. Have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 06:06, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page. It looks like I now have the right to create pages, so could you please tell me a bit about creating them? Sorry to bother you. The editing help doesn't help. LOL!

:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest). I don't think it would be needed for any pages at the moment, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:28, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)
Thanks for your help but I think I would just annoy the staff...[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 02:37, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

== Moving Sections ==

Crystal i am new and i made a new section on a page and how do i move it to a new place([[User:Icestar649|Icestar649]] ([[User talk:Icestar649|talk]]) 22:22, 19 December 2012 (UTC))
:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

== "If there are six, it's not notable" ==

Technically, it's only five, since Deoxys differs via forme. Is five a small enough number out of 650 to be deemed notable?

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== I wanted to ask before reverting this image to an earlier version ==

Somehow, [[[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Shiny_Sandshrew_IV.png]]] seems like a hazard to epileptics. Or non epileptics. Or any one, really --[[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] ([[User talk:Shadowater|talk]]) 07:14, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

'''Larvitar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヨーギラス''' ''Yogiras'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Pupitar}} starting at [[level]] 30, which evolves into {{p|Tyranitar}} starting at level 55.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Larvitar are small sage green reptilian Pokémon with rocky skin. They have an erect spike on top of their heads, triangular black streak markings below and on the upper corners of their red eyes, and several holes or ports on the sides of their bodies. They also have a scaled red rhombus-shaped belly of sorts. Larvitar have fingerless arms and legs with a single nailed toe and a tail somewhat resembling a pine cone or tunnel-boring machine in appearance.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Their penchant for eating copious amounts of soil could be considered a natural ability. Additionally, Larvitar are capable of loosing a painfully piercing {{m|Screech}} if needed.

===Behavior===
Larvitar are usually quiet. Due to its larval stage, their main interest focuses on eating. Whenever a Larvitar is spotted, it's likely to be seen feeding on soil.

===Habitat===
[[File:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Larvitar usually live in mountains, hills, and sometimes, in caves. The mountains they live in are usually their meals: a single Larvitar can eat a mountain in a few weeks.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}
Larvitar feeds on soil.

==In the anime==
[[File:Chris Larvitar.png|thumb|right|250px|Larvitar in the anime]]
[[File:Larvitar Egg.png|thumb|right|A Larvitar {{pkmn|Egg}} in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
====[[Ash's Larvitar]]====
{{Ash}} had a Larvitar he hatched from an {{pkmn|Egg}} given to him by [[Professor Elm]] to deliver to its mother, living on [[Mt. Silver]]. Despite [[Anime move errors|not being able to learn]] {{m|Harden}} in the games, it constantly used it when approached by anyone other than {{Ash}} or {{AP|Pikachu}} prior to ''[[EP264|Mother of All Battles]]''.

====Other====
Larvitar first appeared in ''[[PK10|Pikachu's PikaBoo]]''. {{AP|Pikachu}} and co. invited Larvitar and its friends to a game of Hide 'n' Seek, though Larvitar refused. Later, it was feeling left out and viciously kicked a rock at a lawnmower (which went ridiculously haywire afterwards).

Afterwards, once Pikachu and co., along with Larvitar, destroyed the lawnmower, Larvitar started a new game of Hide 'N' Seek with fellow Pokémon. Larvitar is also shown to fix one of the smaller stones on the larger stone, along with Togepi, whom he had roared at, earlier in the short.

A Larvitar appeared in ''[[BW088|The Mystery of the Missing Cubchoo!]]''. It joined {{an|Chris}}'s team at the end of the episode.

===Minor appearances===
In ''[[AG188|Pinch Healing]]'', a Larvitar was being babysat by a Poké-Sitter named {{an|Matt}}. Ash and {{ashfr}} were helping him with his job. The Larvitar was shy, and used {{m|Sandstorm}} when confronted. By the end of the episode, however, it warmed up to the group, particularly {{an|May}}.

A Larvitar also appeared in ''[[DP038|One Big Happiny Family!]]'' in [[Jessie]]'s fantasy.

Another Larvitar appeared in ''[[DP141|Challenging a Towering Figure!]]''.

{{adv|Crystal}}'s [[Archy]] was attacked by a Larvitar and injured five years prior to the plot of the volume, causing it to go on a rampage until Crystal calmed it down. The same Larvitar returned when Crystal returned to [[Mt. Mortar]], tormenting Crystal and Arcanine until her newly-evolved [[Megaree]] defeated it, allowing her to capture it and regain her shattered confidence from failing to catch {{p|Suicune}} earlier in the volume.

===In the Pokémon Pocket Monsters manga===

==Trivia==
* Larvitar's sprite animation changed between Pokémon Diamond and Pearl and Pokémon Platinum, but its static sprite did not change.

===Origin===
It appears to share similarities with {{wp|dinosaur}}s.

Its penchant for eating mountains, fences, or probably anything else may come from the legend of the {{wp|Tarasque}}.

====Name origin====
Larvitar is derived from ''{{wp|larva}}''.

Yogiras may be a combination of 幼児 ''yōji'' (baby or child) or 幼生 ''yōsei'' (larva) and 嫌い ''kirai'' (hate). ''Giras'' may derive from ''Gojira'', the Japanese name for the character {{wp|Godzilla}}, or ''Angiras'', the Japanese name for the character {{wp|Anguirus}}. Both are dinosaur-like ''{{wp|tokusatsu}}'' movie monsters that share some characteristics with {{p|Tyranitar}}, its evolution.

'''Pupitar''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サナギラス''' ''Sanagiras'') is a dual-type {{2t|Rock|Ground}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Larvitar}} starting at [[level]] 30 and evolves into {{p|Tyranitar}} starting at level 55.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Pupitar are somewhat large Pokémon that are encased inside a thick shell made of grayish-blue rock. They have several spikes and holes for eyes and what appears to be eyebrows, but are actually triangular openings. Since its arms and legs are developing inside the shell, Pupitar are capable of venting gas to propel themselves around.

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
It is one of the few Pokémon not at its last stage of [[evolution]] to be able to wield a {{m|Hyper Beam}}. Pupitar is also capable of propelling itself through the air by venting pressurized gas.

===Behavior===
Pupitar creates a gas inside its body that it compresses and forcefully ejects to propel itself like a jet or rocket.

===Habitat===
[[File:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Despite being encased in a hard shell, Pupitar live and move freely around harsh mountain ranges. They can be found in [[Mt Silver]] and [[Unova]]'s [[Unova Route 15|Route 15]].

==Trivia==
* Pupitar is only Pokémon that undergoes metamorphosis-like evolution whose {{stat|Defense}} [[base stats|base stat]] is not higher than its {{stat|Attack}}. Instead, its Attack base stat is its highest stat.
*Despite its Pokédex entries that states it is fast, its speed stat is just 51.

===Origin===
Pupitar is based on a pupa, as it is between its evolutionary line's larval stage ({{p|Larvitar}}) and adulthood ({{p|Tyranitar}}).

====Name origin====
Pupitar is derived from ''{{wp|pupa}}'', the stage in some insects between the larval stage and adulthood.

Sanagiras may be a combination of 蛹 ''sanagi'' (pupa) and 嫌い ''kirai'' (hate). ''Giras'' may derive from ''Gojira'', the Japanese name for the character {{wp|Godzilla}}, or ''Angiras'', the Japanese name for the character {{wp|Anguirus}}. Both are dinosaur-like ''{{wp|tokusatsu}}'' movie monsters that share some characteristics with {{p|Tyranitar}}, its evolution.

'''Gallade''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''エルレイド''' ''Erureido'') is a dual-type {{2t|Psychic|Fighting}} Pokémon.

He [[Evolution|evolves]] from a [[Gender|male]] {{p|Kirlia}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Dawn Stone}}. He is one of {{p|Ralts}}'s final forms, the other being {{p|Gardevoir}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Gallade have a white lower body that consists of bold rounded hips with strong legs. His torso is thin and colored in a balance between the green of his upper body, and the white of his lower body. Sharp red horn protrusions stick out of the chest and back, similar to {{p|Gardevoir}}. Gallade's arms are shaped like {{wp|tonfa}}s, with extendable blades in the elbows. His hands are now connected to its arm and its fingers are now connected to its hands, appearing more glove-like. His hairstyle resembles a gladiator's helmet, with a white face and a light-teal colored head crest. Like his counterpart Gardevoir, Gallade has spikes on the sides of his face, that has a close resemblance to a masquerade mask.

====Gender differences====
Gallade is a male-only species. Some consider {{p|Gardevoir}} to be the female counterpart although Gardevoir can be of either gender.

===Special abilities===
Thanks to Gallade's arm blades, which can be withdrawn and extended to two lengths, he can learn a variety of sword-like attacks in several types. These include {{m|Leaf Blade}}, {{m|Night Slash}}, and the rarely known {{m|Psycho Cut}}. He is one of two non-{{type|Grass}} Pokémon that can learn Leaf Blade. As with other {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon, Gallade can summon {{m|Earthquake}}s, and launch rocks at his opponents (in the forms of {{m|Stone Edge}}, {{m|Rock Slide}} or {{m|Rock Tomb}}). He can also learn punching attacks like the elemental punches, and the rare {{m|Drain Punch}}. He has one of the greatest varieties of moves. Since Gallade is a fully-evolved Pokémon, he can learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} or {{m|Giga Impact}}.

===Behavior===
Gallade are masters of courtesy and swordsmanship, defending the weak from harm. They attack in fierce onslaughts against their foes.

===Habitat===
Gallade hide up in very tall trees, watching for trouble. When the time is right, they leap from their homes to forewarn civilians or fight enemies.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Gallade anime.png|thumb|right|250px|Gallade in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
A Gallade under [[Zoey]]'s command made his TV episode debut in ''[[DP177|A Grand Fight for Winning!]]'' where it battled {{an|Dawn}}'s {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} and {{TP|Dawn|Togekiss}} along with [[Zoey's Glameow]] in the [[Sinnoh Grand Festival]] finals.

===Minor appearances===
Gallade made a minor appearance in the 10th movie, ''[[M10|The Rise of Darkrai]]''. One led [[Alice]], {{Ash}}, {{an|Dawn}} and {{an|Brock}} to the area that [[Baron Alberto]] believed {{OBP|Darkrai|M10}} had first "infected". He reappeared some time later.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Sinnoh}}
{{Animedexbody|DP177|Gallade|Ash's Pokédex|Gallade, the Blade Pokémon, and the evolved form of {{p|Kirlia}}. Gallade extends its elbows as if they were swords, and when protecting someone, it fights fiercely.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Diamond & Pearl''|Sinnoh}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Darach Gallade Adventures.png|thumb|right|[[Castle Valet Darach|Darach]]'s Gallade in [[Pokémon Adventures]].]]

[[Caitlin]] has a Gallade that is also her bodyguard, protecting Caitlin from any possible attackers. He first appeared when he attacked [[Looker]] after he mistook Looker for an attacker when he stepped too close to Caitlin in ''[[PS418|VS Porygon-Z]]''.

===In the Phantom Thief Pokémon 7 manga===
Hiori's Gallade debuted in ''[[P7-04|A Fated Reunion]]'' where he used him to unmask a thief.

==In the TCG==

==Game data==

==Trivia==
* Gallade's {{stat|Attack}} and {{stat|Special Attack}} are the reverse of Gardevoir's.
* Gallade's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] ({{v2|Platinum}} only) and the [[List of Pokémon by Almia Browser number|Almia Browser]] are the same: 160.
* Gallade is the only non-{{type|Grass}} Pokémon that is able to learn {{m|Leaf Blade}} by leveling up.
* Gallade is tied with {{p|Scrafty}} for the highest {{stat|Special Defense}} of all non-legendary {{type|Fighting}} Pokémon.

====Origin====
The single fin on Gallade's head resembles the helmet worn by {{wp|Murmillo|Murmillo-class}} Roman {{wp|Gladiator|gladiators}} or the {{wp|Corinthian helmet}} (with a horsehair crest) that was worn by Greek {{wp|Hoplite|hoplites}}. He may also be based on medieval {{wp|Knight|knights}}. Additionally, his battle stances (depicted in-game and in artwork) resemble the ''en garde'' position and parries of {{wp|Fencing|modern fencing}}.

====Name origin====
Gallade may be a combination of ''gallant'' and ''blade''. It may also involve {{wp|Galahad|Sir ''Galahad''}}, a knight of {{wp|Arthurian legend}}.

Erureido may be a combination of ''{{wp|Earl}}'' (in antiquity, a chieftain or military leader; in present day, a rank in the {{wp|Peerage|British nobility}}) or ''elbow'' and ''blade'', referring to the sword-like appendages on its arms. It may also derive from ''{{wp|ballad}}'' (a type of French poetry), in accordance with the musical origin of {{p|Ralts}} and the French {{p|Gardevoir}}.

'''Gardevoir''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サーナイト''' ''Sirknight'') is a {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Kirlia}} starting at [[level]] 30. It is one of {{p|Ralts}}'s final forms, the other being {{p|Gallade}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
The tutu that Gardevoir had as a Kirlia had became an elegant ballroom gown, with a similar green underside. Its ‘hair’ style has also changed, with ‘curls’ down the sides of its head. Gardevoir has long, slender, white legs underneath the gown. Gardevoir's arms are now green; its arms are connected to the hand with no defined wrist. Gardevoir owns long, slender fingers that are connected to the arms directly, appearing more glove-like. The red horns it had on its head before evolving have now moved to its chest and its back. Gardevoir also has spikes to the side of its face that has a close resemblance to a masquerade mask. Gardevoir has a band of green extending on its chest to the centermost horn and then connecting to the sleeve-like arms, almost appearing to resemble a Torso or top-like part to a dress.

====Gender differences====
None. While Gardevoir is often considered to be the female counterpart to {{p|Gallade}}, male Gardevoir also exist.

===Special abilities===
Gardevoir can sense the feelings of people and other Pokémon. It can also {{m|Future Sight|see the future}} clearly. Gardevoir has the psychokinetic power to distort the dimensions and create a small black hole, in order to protect its Trainer. Apparently, Gardevoir does not feel the pull of gravity because it supports itself with psychic power. It also has the power to teleport. In addition to Psychic-type moves, Gardevoir can also learn moves of a variety of types, such as {{m|Energy Ball}}, {{m|Thunderbolt}}, {{m|Focus Blast}}, {{m|Shadow Ball}}, and {{m|Charge Beam}}. As a fully evolved Pokémon it can also learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.

==Trivia==
* Out of the three original stages of {{p|Ralts}}, Gardevoir is the only one that had its name changed in the English version.
* Despite its human-like appearance, it isn't in the {{egg|Human-Like}} Egg Group.
* Gardevoir's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] ({{v2|Platinum}} only) and the [[List of Pokémon by Almia Browser number|Almia Browser]] are the same: 159.
* In [[Generation IV]], Gardevoir was not able to learn {{m|Will-O-Wisp}} by [[TM]] even though it could learn it by breeding.

===Origin===
Gardevoir resembles a {{wp|ballroom dance}}r. Its exaggerated head with minimal facial expression and an overall frail, featureless physique could also be attributed to ''anesama ningyou'', a style of traditional Japanese {{wp|paper doll}}. Its protective nature over its Trainer may suggest that it is based on a {{wp|guardian angel}}, though its ghost-like characteristics could also suggest that it is based on {{wp|ghosts}} that refuse to leave this world.

====Name origin====
Gardevoir may be a combination of ''garde'' (French for ''guard'') and ''devoir'' (French for ''duty''). It may also be a combination of ''garder'' (French verb for ''to keep'') and ''voir'' (French verb for ''to see''), reflected in its Pokédex data, which explains how Gardevoir will protect its Trainer even at the cost of its own life and that Gardevoir has the ability to see into the future.

Sirknight may be taken to mean さあ、ナイト ''saa, naito'' ("come, knight") or ''Sir Knight''.

'''Ralts''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ラルトス''' ''Ralts'') is a {{type|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Kirlia}} starting at [[level]] 20, which evolves into {{p|Gardevoir}} starting at level 30 or, if male, {{p|Gallade}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Dawn Stone}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
[[File:Raltseyes.png|thumb|left|100px|Ralts's eyes seen from below]]
Ralts has a white body. Its legs give it the appearance of wearing a dress. Ralts's green hair creates an illusion that it is wearing a helmet. A red horn sprouts on the front and a smaller one on the back of the head. A Ralts's eyes are normally covered by its "helmet", but a view from the proper angle will reveal a pair of melancholy eyes that look similar to the ones its evolved forms have. Despite the fact that Ralts and its evolutions resemble humans, they somehow bear a closer relationship to {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon than with other humanoid Pokémon such as {{p|Mime Jr.}}

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Ralts can use its horns to sense the emotions of Pokémon and people. The abilities that Ralts has in battle are similar to what most {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon would have. Ralts is one of the few Pokémon that can learn {{m|Magical Leaf}}.

===Behavior===
Ralts is a timid Pokémon that will hide if it senses hostility, but becomes a little braver if it senses happy feelings and optimism from others. If its Trainer is in a cheerful mood, this Pokémon grows cheerful and joyous in the same way. If its horns capture the warm feelings of people or Pokémon, its body warms up slightly.

===Habitat===
[[File:Urban.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon}}]]
Ralts tend to keep away from humans, considering that they don't usually like being around negative feelings.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Max Ralts.png|right|thumb|Ralts in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Ralts debuted in the {{pkmn|anime}} in the episode ''[[AG109|Do I Hear a Ralts?]]'' [[Max]] found [[Max#Befriended|one]] that was very sick and decided to prove his abilities by taking responsibility for it. With the help of {{AP|Ash's Snorunt|Glalie}}, he rushed it to the nearest [[Pokémon Center]]. He later promised to return for Ralts when he is eligible to be a {{pkmn|Trainer}}.

===Minor appearances===
A Ralts was living with some party-loving psychic Pokémon in an abandoned mining town in ''[[AG146|Fear Factor Phony]]''.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexbody|AG109|Ralts|May's Pokédex|Ralts, the Feeling Pokémon. Ralts is the pre-evolved form of {{p|Kirlia}}. It can use the horns on its head to read human emotions. Ralts rarely shows itself to humans, but may occasionally approach when it senses positive or happy feelings.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Advanced Generation''|Hoenn}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Rara Ralts.png|thumb|Rara, {{adv|Ruby}}'s Ralts]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{adv|Ruby}} owned a Ralts nicknamed Rara. However, for most of the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}, Rara is with {{adv|Wally}} after Ruby was lost in an earthquake that left him under [[Mr. Briney]]'s care (where he learned of the beautiful {{p|Milotic}} that {{adv|Mimi}} eventually evolved into). While training with Wally under [[Norman]]'s command, Rara evolves into a {{p|Kirlia}} and is eventually returned to Ruby.

==Trivia==
* Ralts's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] ({{v2|Platinum}} only) and the [[List of Pokémon by Almia Browser number|Almia Browser]] are the same: 157.
* Ralts's evolution family is one of only three evolution families to have a branch evolution in the second evolutionary event, and the only one whose base level was not introduced in [[Generation I]].
* Ralts's {{g|Trozei!}} sprite is the only one where its eyes are visible. In Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, one can see them if one were to view Ralts from below in the Trainer memo; however, it is not a sprite.
*Although being able to learn {{m|Will-O-Wisp}} by breeding, Ralts was not compatible with the [[TM]] that teaches the same move in [[Generation IV]]. In [[Generation V]], the situation is reversed, it is now compatible with the TM, but Will-O-Wisp is no longer listed among its Egg Moves (although Ralts will still carry Will-O-Wisp upon hatching if the male parent knows the move, due to it being passed down as with any other machine move would).
* Ralts is the only Pokémon that has 198 as its base stat total.
** With this total, this also makes Ralts the weakest Psychic-type Pokémon.
* Despite the fact that Wally caught his Ralts on Route 102 at level 5 in Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, it is impossible for the player to catch a level 5 Ralts in the entire game, beside by breeding one.
** This may have been done so Wally could have a "starter" Pokémon at the same level as the player's.
*Ralts is one of two starter Pokémon owned by a rival to not be given out by a professor.
** The other one belongs to [[Silver (game)|Silver]] as he steals his Pokémon from [[Professor Elm]].
** Ralts is the only starter Pokémon owned by a rival to not be received from a professor in some way.

===Origin===
Ralts's appearance seems to be based slightly on that of a young child, following the theory that young children can sense feelings easier and more thoroughly than adults. Its red "horns" also resemble the tips of a heart shape.

====Name origin====
Ralts may be a partial {{wp|anagram}} of ''astral'' (as in {{wp|astral body}}); its other language names seem to follow this. It may also involve ''relate'', referring to the way Ralts will only relate to kind Trainers. It may also be a play on ''{{wp|waltz}}'' (a type of dance); Ralts' evolutionary family appears to have several similarities to dancers.

'''Absol''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''アブソル''' ''Absol'') is a {{type|Dark}} Pokémon.

It is not known to [[Evolution|evolve]] into or from any other Pokémon.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Absol is a quadrupedal felid Pokémon. Its dark blue to gray body is covered in white fur, with a ruff around its neck and chest, and a tuft on the top of its head adorned with a single blue-black oval. It has a cat-like face, a scythe-like tail and a sickle-shaped growth on the side of its head. Its body is sleek and feline, making it well suited for its life in the mountains. Its broad feet are equipped with three claws each, and spikes protrude from the heels of its hind legs and the elbows of its anterior legs. Its head resembles a Yin-Yang symbol.

====Gender differences====
None

===Special abilities===
Using its horn, Absol is able to predict when a natural disaster will occur and tries to warn people when one is approaching. This often has the unfortunate effect of Absol itself being blamed for the disaster. The sickle that protrudes from an Absol's head is sharp enough to cut clean slices through metal and rock.

===Behavior===
It sharply senses even subtle changes in the sky and the land to predict natural disasters. Although Absol rarely venture down into areas inhabited by humans, when they do it is to warn people of the impending catastrophe. Absol tend to be quiet and observant Pokémon. They often carry an air of intelligence and serenity about them, though some can become violent and ill-willed if mistreated. Absol can be extremely vicious adversaries in battle and are known to deal attacks with flawless precision.

===Habitat===
[[File:Mountain.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Mountain Pokémon}}]]
Absol tend to live in mountainous regions and forests far away from people.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Izabe Island Absol.png|right|219px|thumb|Absol in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Absol first appeared in ''[[M06|Jirachi: Wish Maker]]''. The Disaster Pokémon showed up to take {{p|Jirachi}} back to [[Forina]]. However, Absol wasn't evil, and helped Jirachi once it returned to Forina.

The Disaster Pokémon made its first anime appearance in ''[[AG107|Absol-ute Disaster]]''. The people of a town were blaming Absol for all the bad things that were happening to their town during the past month. {{Ash}} and friends (along with a boy named {{ho|Nicky}}) went out to search whether or not the accusations were true. They found out that the Absol was actually warning the town about a flood.

[[Drew]] captured and trained an Absol for the [[Kanto]] [[Grand Festival]], as seen in ''[[AG180|May, We Harley Drew'd Ya!]]''

===Minor appearances===
An Absol owned by [[Mollie]] appeared in ''[[AG167|What I Did for Love!]]'' She used it in a {{pkmn|Contest}} where it battled [[Brock's Marshtomp]] and lost.

An Absol appeared in ''[[DP020|Mutiny in the Bounty]]'', captured by the evil [[Pokémon Hunter|Hunter]] [[J]] and [[J's henchmen|her henchmen]] after [[Ash's Pikachu]], [[Melodi]]'s {{p|Gardevoir}} and {{TRT}}'s {{MTR}} got stolen. The Absol was returned to its rightful owner after Ash, Team Rocket, and Melodi reunited with their Pokémon and some of J's minions were arrested.

An Absol made a brief cameo in ''[[M07|Destiny Deoxys]]'' and ''[[M11|Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.

===In the Pokémon Diamond and Pearl Adventure! manga===
Absol is one of [[Koya]]'s main Pokémon. It is used in his battles at the {{si|Pokémon League}}, and in subsequent battles against [[Team Galactic]].

===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team|Pokémon Mystery Dungeon]]: An [[List of Mystery Dungeon characters#Absol|Absol]] trails the rescue team around the [[Frosty Forest]] and confronts them after the defeat of {{p|Articuno}}.

==Trivia==
* Although several of Absol's Pokédex entries claim that it can sense disaster, it cannot have the abilities {{a|Anticipation}} or {{a|Forewarn}}; it can, however, learn {{m|Future Sight}}.
* Absol has the highest Attack of any non-legendary Pokémon which is not a part of an evolutionary family.
* Absol is the only non-{{type|Psychic}} Pokémon that can learn {{m|Psycho Cut}} by level.
* Absol's location in many games support its description of appearing where disasters occur:
** In {{2v2|Diamond|Pearl}} Absol appears near Lake Valor, which was drained by Team Galactic.
** In {{v2|Platinum}} Absol appears on [[Mt. Coronet]] in places that one can first access when heading to the [[Spear Pillar]], before Giratina is released by Team Galactic.
** In {{2v2|Black|White}}, Absol can be found at the [[Giant Chasm]], a place where disasters are said to befall Trainers, and {{rt|13|Unova}}, 13 being known as an unlucky number. Indeed, {{game3|Black and White|two years later|s 2}}, the Giant Chasm is where Team Plasma makes its stand.
** In [[Pokémon Ranger: Shadows of Almia]], Absol can be found in the [[Altru Building]] and [[Altru Tower]], from which [[Team Dim Sun]] plans to take control of all Pokémon in the region.
* Absol was the last answer to the [[Pokémon Trainer's Choice]].
* Absol learns the most [[Move variations#Slash|variations of Slash]] of any Pokémon (barring {{p|Smeargle}}): In addition to {{m|Slash}} itself, it can learn {{m|Night Slash}}, {{m|Psycho Cut}} and {{m|Shadow Claw}}. The only variation Absol cannot learn is {{m|Cross Poison}}.
* Absol is the only non-[[legendary Pokémon]] featured on the box art for {{g|Box Ruby & Sapphire}}, though it often appears in legends.
* Absol is the only {{type|Dark}} Pokémon in the {{DL|List of Pokémon by color|White|white color group}}.

===Origin===
Absol is most likely based on the Bai Ze of Chinese mythology, also known as the {{wp|kutabe}} or hakutaku. The Bai Ze predicted that a plague would sweep through the Toyama Prefecture of Japan. It is generally described as a white beast that can take the form of a large mountainous lion, distinguished by having one or two horns on its head. It is also sometimes said to have an extra eye on their head or back, which may be represented by the oval that appears on Absol's forehead. The Bai Ze is considered to be intelligent, and gifted with the ability to understand human speech.

A less likely theory is that it may be derived from the white {{wp|Chamois|chamois}}, a mountain dwelling goat-like animal, which local superstition claims represents the embodiment of death, and should any hunter harm one, they would die within the year. It may be also be based on the {{wp|black cat}} superstition. Absol's humanized face and feline appearance may be a homage to the {{wp|sphinx}}. Absol's head is modeled after a {{wp|Yin and yang|Taijitu ("yin-yang")}}.

====Name origin====
Absol may derive from 物騒 ''bussō'' (dangerous), or it may be a combination of ''ab-'' ("away from") and ''sol'' (Latin for ''sun''), referring to its {{type|Dark}} nature, or may also be a reference to a solar eclipse, as many cultures feared a solar eclipse was a sign of end-times or disaster. It may also be a shortening of ''absolution'' or ''absolve'', referring to the fact that while Absol foretells disasters, it does not cause them, thereby absolving it of guilt. It may also derive from ''Absalom'', a name which is said to bring bad luck, according to Jewish tradition.

'''Gardevoir''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''サーナイト''' ''Sirknight'') is a {{type|Psychic}} Pokémon.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Kirlia}} starting at [[level]] 30. It is one of {{p|Ralts}}'s final forms, the other being {{p|Gallade}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
The tutu that Gardevoir had as a Kirlia had became an elegant ballroom gown, with a similar green underside. It's ‘hair’ style has also changed, with ‘curls’ down the sides of its head. Gardevoir has long, slender, white legs underneath the gown. Gardevoir's arms are now green; its arms are connected to the hand with no defined wrist. Gardevoir owns long, slender fingers that are connected to the arms directly, appearing more glove-like. The red horns it had on its head before evolving have now moved to its chest and its back. Gardevoir also has spikes to the side of its face that has a close resemblance to a masquerade mask. Gardevoir has a band of green extending on its chest to the centermost horn and then connecting to the sleeve-like arms, almost appearing to resemble a Torso or top-like part to a dress.

====Gender differences====

===Special abilities===
Gardevoir can sense the feelings of people and other Pokémon. It can also {{m|Future Sight|see the future}} clearly. Gardevoir has the psychokinetic power to distort the dimensions and create a small black hole, in order to protect its Trainer. Apparently, Gardevoir does not feel the pull of gravity because it supports itself with psychic power. It also has the power to teleport. In addition to Psychic-type moves, Gardevoir can also learn moves of a variety of types, such as {{m|Energy Ball}}, {{m|Thunderbolt}}, {{m|Focus Blast}}, {{m|Shadow Ball}}, and {{m|Charge Beam}}. As a fully evolved Pokémon it can also learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} and {{m|Giga Impact}}.

==Trivia==
* Out of the three original stages of {{p|Ralts}}, Gardevoir is the only one that had its name changed in the English version.
* Despite its human-like appearance, it isn't in the {{egg|Human-Like}} Egg Group.
* Gardevoir's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] ({{v2|Platinum}} only) and the [[List of Pokémon by Almia Browser number|Almia Browser]] are the same: 159.
* In [[Generation IV]], Gardevoir was not able to learn {{m|Will-O-Wisp}} by [[TM]] even though it could learn it by breeding.

===Origin===
Gardevoir resembles a {{wp|ballroom dance}}r. Its exaggerated head with minimal facial expression and an overall frail, featureless physique could also be attributed to ''anesama ningyou'', a style of traditional Japanese {{wp|paper doll}}. Its protective nature over its Trainer may suggest that it is based on a {{wp|guardian angel}}, though its ghost-like characteristics could also suggest that it is based on {{wp|ghosts}} that refuse to leave this world.

====Name origin====
Gardevoir may be a combination of ''garde'' (French for ''guard'') and ''devoir'' (French for ''duty''). It may also be a combination of ''garder'' (French verb for ''to keep'') and ''voir'' (French verb for ''to see''), reflected in its Pokédex data, which explains how Gardevoir will protect its Trainer even at the cost of its own life and that Gardevoir has the ability to see into the future.

Sirknight may be taken to mean さあ、ナイト ''saa, naito'' ("come, knight") or ''Sir Knight''.

'''Ralts''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ラルトス''' ''Ralts'') is a {{type|Psychic}} {{OBP|Pokémon|species}}.

It [[Evolution|evolves]] into {{p|Kirlia}} starting at [[level]] 20, which evolves into {{p|Gardevoir}} starting at level 30 or, if male, {{p|Gallade}} when exposed to a {{evostone|Dawn Stone}}.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
[[File:Raltseyes.png|thumb|left|100px|Ralts's eyes seen from below]]
Ralts has a white body. Its legs give it the appearance of wearing a dress. Ralts's green har creates an illusion that it is wearing a helmet. A red horn sprouts on the front and a smaller one on the back of the head. A Ralts's eyes are normally covered by its "helmet", but a view from the proper angle will reveal a pair of melancholy eyes that look similar to the ones its evolved forms have. Despite the fact that Ralts and its evolutions resemble humans, they somehow bear a closer relationship to {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon than with other humanoid Pokémon such as {{p|Mime Jr.}}

====Gender differences====
None.

===Special abilities===
Ralts can use its horns to sense the emotions of Pokémon and people. The abilities that Ralts has in battle are similar to what most {{type|Ghost}} Pokémon would have. Ralts is one of the few Pokémon that can learn {{m|Magical Leaf}}.

===Behavior===
Ralts is a timid Pokémon that will hide if it senses hostility, but becomes a little braver if it senses happy feelings and optimism from others. If its Trainer is in a cheerful mood, this Pokémon grows cheerful and joyous in the same way. If its horns capture the warm feelings of people or Pokémon, its body warms up slightly.

===Habitat===
[[File:Urban.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Urban Pokémon}}]]
Ralts tend to keep away from humans, considering that they don't usually like being around negative feelings.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[File:Max Ralts.png|right|thumb|Ralts in the anime]]
===Major appearances===
Ralts debuted in the {{pkmn|anime}} in the episode ''[[AG109|Do I Hear a Ralts?]]'' [[Max]] found [[Max#Befriended|one]] that was very sick and decided to prove his abilities by taking responsibility for it. With the help of {{AP|Ash's Snorunt|Glalie}}, he rushed it to the nearest [[Pokémon Center]]. He later promised to return for Ralts when he is eligible to be a {{pkmn|Trainer}}.

===Minor appearances===
A Ralts was living with some party-loving psychic Pokémon in an abandoned mining town in ''[[AG146|Fear Factor Phony]]''.

===Pokédex entries===
{{Animedexheader|Hoenn}}
{{Animedexbody|AG109|Ralts|May's Pokédex|Ralts, the Feeling Pokémon. Ralts is the pre-evolved form of {{p|Kirlia}}. It can use the horns on its head to read human emotions. Ralts rarely shows itself to humans, but may occasionally approach when it senses positive or happy feelings.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|''Advanced Generation''|Hoenn}}

==In the manga==
[[File:Rara Ralts.png|thumb|Rara, {{adv|Ruby}}'s Ralts]]
===In the Pokémon Adventures manga===
{{adv|Ruby}} owned a Ralts nicknamed Rara. However, for most of the {{chap|Ruby & Sapphire}}, Rara is with {{adv|Wally}} after Ruby was lost in an earthquake that left him under [[Mr. Briney]]'s care (where he learned of the beautiful {{p|Milotic}} that {{adv|Mimi}} eventually evolved into). While training with Wally under [[Norman]]'s command, Rara evolves into a {{p|Kirlia}} and is eventually returned to Ruby.

==Trivia==
* Ralts's number in the [[List of Pokémon by Sinnoh Pokédex number|Sinnoh Pokédex]] ({{v2|Platinum}} only) and the [[List of Pokémon by Almia Browser number|Almia Browser]] are the same: 157.
* Ralts's evolution family is one of only three evolution families to have a branch evolution in the second evolutionary event, and the only one whose base level was not introduced in [[Generation I]].
* Ralts's {{g|Trozei!}} sprite is the only one where its eyes are visible. In Pokémon Colosseum and Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness, one can see them if one were to view Ralts from below in the Trainer memo; however, it is not a sprite.
*Although being able to learn {{m|Will-O-Wisp}} by breeding, Ralts was not compatible with the [[TM]] that teaches the same move in [[Generation IV]]. In [[Generation V]], the situation is reversed, it is now compatible with the TM, but Will-O-Wisp is no longer listed among its Egg Moves (although Ralts will still carry Will-O-Wisp upon hatching if the male parent knows the move, due to it being passed down as with any other machine move would).
* Ralts is the only Pokémon that has 198 as its base stat total.
** With this total, this also makes Ralts the weakest Psychic-type Pokémon.
* Despite the fact that Wally caught his Ralts on Route 102 at level 5 in Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, it is impossible for the player to catch a level 5 Ralts in the entire game, beside by breeding one.
** This may have been done so Wally could have a "starter" Pokémon at the same level as the player's.
*Ralts is one of two starter Pokémon owned by a rival to not be given out by a professor.
** The other one belongs to [[Silver (game)|Silver]] as he steals his Pokémon from [[Professor Elm]].
** Ralts is the only starter Pokémon owned by a rival to not be received from a professor in some way.

===Origin===
Ralts's appearance seems to be based slightly on that of a young child, following the theory that young children can sense feelings easier and more thoroughly than adults. Its red "horns" also resemble the tips of a heart shape.

====Name origin====
Ralts may be a partial {{wp|anagram}} of ''astral'' (as in {{wp|astral body}}); its other language names seem to follow this. It may also involve ''relate'', referring to the way Ralts will only relate to kind Trainers. It may also be a play on ''{{wp|waltz}}'' (a type of dance); Ralts' evolutionary family appears to have several similarities to dancers.

==In other languages==

Hi, can you read the talk page? There wasn't any significant opposition and the discussion was ignored after another user came in to support the information that was added. This wiki's administration seems to have the attitude of "I only want it to look a certain way lol i revert you" as evidenced by selective prohibition on things such as "[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Castform_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29&diff=1733747&oldid=1733746 sprite trivia]" and when information is added you get uppity and sarcastic, then you (admins) have the audacity to [[Talk:Quash (move)|never even respond]] to comments on talk pages and [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Talk%3AQuash_%28move%29&diff=1774131&oldid=1774130 revert "bumps"] to them to further suppress new ideas (overall suppress the discussion, the reason seeming to be because "you don't like it").

Hi there.I along with another user will create a page about a league in our userpages.The league will be featured by gym leaders which will be users from this site.I think you may join must.Do you? Tell me your favorite type,sprite,city in the anime and 6 pokemon that you prefer.You trainer class will be Gym Leader.Ok? [[User:Riox-Ibui|Riox]][[User talk:Riox-Ibui|***]] 12:04, 27 January 2013 (UTC)
:Hello Riox, Bulbapedia is probably not the best place for such activities. A more appropriate place for it will be [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/forum.php Bulbagarden forums].
:If you are talking about creating a league for Pokémon battles on video games, [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/f518/ Bulbagarden Battle Center] is the place to go to, in such case. If you are going to simply act and post like their characters, I think [http://bmgf.bulbagarden.net/f424/ Roleplaying Games] is rather suitable for it. Thank you.

== Canon of 2nd Movie ==

I thought the 2nd Movie was Canon (in the same way Mewtwo Strikes Back is). During the Lugia Arc in Johto, Ash recognises the two Lugia and clearly refers to what happened in the orange islands, thus suggesting that it definitely happened. [[User:RobbieNewton|RobbieNewton]] ([[User talk:RobbieNewton|talk]]) 12:59, 30 January 2013 (UTC)

What's the problem? [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 03:25, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
:Replied on your talkpage.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:28, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

:I do have the games, but it would be impractical and take hours to document every Pokemon that appears at every battlefield for all three levels of power, especially since in a lot of storylines you can't even access every battlefield, and what appears there each round is random. A simple list of Pokemon isn't plagiarism, if I was copying stuff word for word, yes, but I'm not, it's a list of straight facts that as you said, anyone could get, to call it plagiarism is ridiculous. Advance question then since I asked about on another Admin's talk, would it be "plagiarism" to upload rips of the sprites in the game that spritersresource is hosting? [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 03:32, 31 January 2013 (UTC)

My bad. In that case, listing Pokémon is fine.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:40, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
:::Oh, okay, phew. Sorry for that little blow-up; I get worried editing here, I know how strict policy is and don't want to get in trouble or break rules.

:I'm assuming by homemade that you can rip the images off the games and such. If you can do that, by all means go for it. As for the moves, I'd say it's fine as we do list move effects in other games but you might need second opinions.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:01, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
::Alas, I can't use the in-game images, I wish I could, I've looked for them. Homemade would be images I made myself, like [http://i443.photobucket.com/albums/qq156/DrakeClawfang/PokemonConquestAttack1_zps5a26750a.png this]. I know it's not ideal, but it's the best I can do, describing some of the attacks verbally isn't very clear with some of them. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 04:14, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
:::Yeah, that's not really a good idea, as one probably won't get what that move is (what is it anyway?). As for describing them, maybe not explain what the move looks like, just outline any differences between the main game effect and conquest effect (if any).--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:19, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
::::Well that pic could be a lot of moves, Conquest only uses a dozen or so image hitboxes. Among others I'm probably forgetting, that's Ice Beam, Flamethrower, Psybeam, and Dragon Pulse. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 04:22, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
::::Also to clarify, the difference between the main game and conquest effects of moves is that Conquest uses a grid-based movement system, every attack hits over particular tiles. So that pic hits three squares forward, the blue square is the attacking Pokemon, the orange squares are what squares get hit. Water Gun for example hit two squares forward, Petal Dance and Outrage hit the four squares adjacent the attacker, etc. The in-game graphics show a similar graphic to that including colors, just their grid is on an angle. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 04:25, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
:::::Ah I see. As you could probably tell, I don't have Conquest. The grid like movements could be implemented in the move infobox like how the double/triple battle table is. I'll ask the other admins and see what they think.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 04:30, 31 January 2013 (UTC)
::::::Sounds good, hadn't thought of that. Move info is fairly simple thankfully, a one-to-five star power rating and additional effect, all moves are the same types as in the main series.

== Re:Conquest ==

The tiles could be made larger, and there should be a field to list who learns the attack (it can be small though, I doubt that any move is learned by more than five Pokemon at best). How come the Description and Power fields are repeated? All in all though, looks good. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 03:10, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

Oh, and to simplify the Power field, moves in Conquest are ranked in power in stars, 1-5. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 03:11, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
:Yeah, been trying to make the tiles larger, I'll figure out how to do that. Okay, Pokémon that can learn the move will b added, description and power are only like that for the time being. As for the stars, I'm actually for images of the stars so I can use that on the template.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 03:34, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
::Sorry, don't have the sprites for the stars.

::Something else that can simplify the template, the middle tile on the second row, as shown on my earlier pic, can always be blue. Then the other tiles just need the option to be orange, blue, red, or blank - the game uses orange to denote what tiles are hit, blue to denote the attacker moving as they attack, and red to denote the target will get pushed back to that tile(s) by the attack.

:Type in a number after ''tile=''. So ''tile=one'' will highlight one tile, ''tile=two'' will highlight two so on so forth.--[[User:Force Fire|'''F'''orce]][[User talk:Force Fire|'''F'''ire]] 05:16, 1 February 2013 (UTC)
::Yeah, that is really not gonna work, not all moves hit straight forward. Flame Burst hits in an X pattern centered two squares forwards, Fire Spin hits in a box pattern in front of the user, Thunderbolt hits three tiles horizontally two squares in front of the user. Like, I could supply you with the different combinations so we could put like "pattern=1" and it shows the one pattern, but otherwise each tile needs to individually be toggable to turn orange. The two in front of the user, like in your test, need the option to turn blue, and the column two in front of the user (fourth columm from the left) needs to be able to turn red. [[User:Drake Clawfang|Drake Clawfang]] ([[User talk:Drake Clawfang|talk]]) 05:24, 1 February 2013 (UTC)

::::Well, turns out my estimate of a dozen attack combinations or so was quite generous, it's twice that.

Here's all of them [http://s443.beta.photobucket.com/user/DrakeClawfang/library/Pokemon%20Conquest 27 in total].

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

:First, you're welcome. =3 And do you mean the usertags? Well, first you need to do some editing so you can start your own userpage. Don't ask me how many edits you need to do, it's a hidden number. Anyway, once you do that, you can look {{bp|Usertag|here}} for information on usertags. Have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 06:06, 13 August 2012 (UTC)

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page. It looks like I now have the right to create pages, so could you please tell me a bit about creating them? Sorry to bother you. The editing help doesn't help. LOL! Either way, I would really appreciate it if you helped me out. [[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 21:50, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest). I don't think it would be needed for any pages at the moment, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:28, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

== Moving Sections ==

Crystal i am new and i made a new section on a page and how do i move it to a new place([[User:Icestar649|Icestar649]] ([[User talk:Icestar649|talk]]) 22:22, 19 December 2012 (UTC))
:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

== "If there are six, it's not notable" ==

Technically, it's only five, since Deoxys differs via forme. Is five a small enough number out of 650 to be deemed notable? Sweeping statistics like this at a glance are of considerable use to people who play competitively. [[User:Jumpman16|Jumpman16]] ([[User talk:Jumpman16|talk]]) 03:54, 11 February 2013 (UTC)

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== I wanted to ask before reverting this image to an earlier version ==

Somehow, [[[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Shiny_Sandshrew_IV.png]]] seems like a hazard to epileptics. Or non epileptics. Or any one, really --[[User:Shadowater|Shadowater]] ([[User talk:Shadowater|talk]]) 07:14, 12 March 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)
:I understand your concern, and I agree that it is a good point.

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page. It looks like I now have the right to create pages, so could you please tell me a bit about creating them? Sorry to bother you. The editing help doesn't help. LOL! Either way, I would really appreciate it if you helped me out. [[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 21:50, 4 December 2012 (UTC)
:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest). I don't think it would be needed for any pages at the moment, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:28, 22 January 2013 (UTC)

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

== Moving Sections ==

Crystal i am new and i made a new section on a page and how do i move it to a new place([[User:Icestar649|Icestar649]] ([[User talk:Icestar649|talk]]) 22:22, 19 December 2012 (UTC))
:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

Technically, it's only five, since Deoxys differs via forme. Is five a small enough number out of 650 to be deemed notable?

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

==Can you help me?==
Hello Crystal! I don't know If you remember me cause I joined maybe four months ago or longer but I was one of the users you welcomed. Since bulbapedia is so big and I'm a sotr of new user, I'm not exactly sure what to edit (I actually joined just to help with the tyrouge page due to the fact where tyrouge was wasn't completely said). So I was sort of wondering if you possibly have a simple easy task I could do to help out the wiki?

==Just one last question==
Hello, Crystal! Thanks for the suggestion of what to do. I just have one last question: for the trainer classes would it be possible to put a appearance section? I mostly noticed appearance is basically only used for pokemon and not for the human characters but I looked at another stub for a trainer class and it listed a appearance for both characters but it was in the section where game information was usually located. Well thanks for your help, bye!

== Then Let's Bring it Up With Staff ==

To the uneducated reader who knows nothing about Pokémon and is trying to decide which game to buy as their first, such entries as the one I attempted to correct can be very misleading. Anyone looking at the Butterfree or Metapod articles can easily see at the top of the article that it evolves from Caterpie, but cannot catch it in Black; however, the text in cases like Metapod suggests that a player who wants a Butterfree HAS to play White, and cannot trade the Pokémon from Black, thus requiring a player who wants to catch Reshiram (that was my deciding factor, I wanted the white legendary) to purchase White instead. This is completely misleading to an uneducated reader, and it is wrong to assume that everyone will understand that you can still evolve it in Black. After all, clicking a Caterpie link from Metapod's page already shows you can only catch Caterpie in White.

This is a task I'm willing to undertake myself as well, I'm just trying to establish a correct precedent. The existing one is entirely flawed. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 01:04, 9 August 2012 (UTC)

== Name Translations ==

Hey Crystal Talian, I just saw your message and I just wanted to say, first, sorry about that, I'm not fluent in Japanese, and I was looking for something to edit, and I thought that I could do that by translating something from English to Japanese; second, that I didn't really know how the translations worked, which is why I translated the English names back into Japanese; and third, I don't own a Japanese copy of a Hoenn-based game (As I live in the US, and it's realtively hard to get one in and around where I live).The next time I edit a page on Bulbapedia, and any other site for that matter, I'll make sure I know what I'm doing before I start editing. I'll also make sure that the next I edit a page on the site, I'll make sure it will be not only tested personally, but also that it follows the conduct of Bulbapedia and that if it deals with another language that I'm not fluent in, I promise that I won't translate on this site until one of the following is true:
A) I'm fluent in that language (I'm currently fluent in only English, but I'm working on becoming fluent in German)
B) I use an offical site to translate (i.e. a govt. website)
or
C) If I'm thinking about editing, one of the above is true

I'll become fluent in any language, if needed. I am actually thinking about becoming fluent in Japanese, amongst a few other languages. One final thing, I wasn't really thinking about how the translating worked, especially with languages like English and Japanese, which have little to no connection. If you (Or another Bulbapedia staf member) have any problem with anything I edit, like this one, just feel free to edit that page back and tell me. Thanks for pointing that out, and telling me about how translating generally works. Thanks! [[User Talk:Grayglove|Grayglove]]
==A little help, please==
I have been creating battlefield sections for the kingdoms of Pokémon Conquest and would like to create a battlefield page.

:You're not bothering me at all. As far as getting a page started, all you have to do is run a search for the title of the page you want to make, and click the link to create the page. As far as the content for that page, I suggest you look over the other Conquest pages and how they are written and set up, and then maybe go over the {{bp|manual of style}}. Other than that, just go with your instincts. Good luck and have fun! [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:07, 5 December 2012 (UTC)

Umm... I've been too busy to do the page yet (and a bit scared, I know it's stupid to worry about it, I'm just not that good at codes and all), but what would you use for a suffix to show that the article is for the conquest games and not any others? Thanks in advance!--[[User:Eeveewithwings123|Eeveewithwings123]] ([[User talk:Eeveewithwings123|talk]]) 16:01, 21 January 2013 (UTC)
:Since we don't have any other battlefield pages, a suffix isn't needed to distinguish it. But if you're wanting to make a different page that will need a distinction, the suffix would be (Conquest).

==A question==
Hello Crystal! I have a question and I thought you would probably be able to answer it. Can any user, including the ones that are admins or higher, use obscenities on their user pages? I was just sort of wondering since I found this bureaucrat, [[User:Darkeiya]], using a obscenity in a user box and that confused me since I thought Bulbapedia had rules against that.If you could answer my question I would greatly appreciate it. [[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 03:51, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:There are rules against it in mainspace articles. However, so long as it is within reason and not specifically directed at a person (or group of people), its allowed on userpages and talkpages. So long as it is not excessive, it's nothing to worry about. Thank you for your concern, though. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:35, 7 December 2012 (UTC)

Thankyou for answering my question. The obscenity is directed at a villian in the game so does that change it or is it just different if it is directed at a living person?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 16:04, 7 December 2012 (UTC)
:Only a living person, as it would then be against the Code of Conduct. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 03:51, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for answering my question yet again. Now take for instance the God the Christians believe is real and say that some one uses a obscenity and directs it at that God, would that have to be taken down since Christians believe He is real or would it simply be ignored since not everyone believes He is real?[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:38, 8 December 2012 (UTC)
:That would be offensive to a particular group of people, so that would not be allowed. To put it simply, swearing is okay in the userspace and talkpages so long as it is not offensive to a person or persons. So, if someone is swearing at at game, a game character, or nothing in particular, then that is fine. On the other hand, if someone is directing that obscenity at a person, people, entity, or concept that insults or offends someone, it would not be allowed. If you think that something you want to say might offend someone, then don't say it. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 04:44, 9 December 2012 (UTC)
Thank you for your help Crystal! I thought by leaving you a message you might get back to me the next month (since I have had dreadful experiences on talk pages for articles and I thought this would be the same) but I was very surprised that you got back to me in less then a day. Thank you so much for answering my questions but I'm afraid I've got another one (I believe this one will be my last). Now say for instance a user takes a word that is less then a obscenity but is in the same category and then put the word God in front of it and then uses that word to insult themselves. Would that be allowed because they were insulting themselves or would that be not allowed for they would be insulting both God and themselves? I was wondering about that after seeing a [[User:TTEchidna|user]] do that exact thing.[[User:Minor Notes|Minor Notes]] ([[User talk:Minor Notes|talk]]) 23:45, 11 December 2012 (UTC)
:I really can't run through every possible scenario. The main thing is to avoid offending people. If you think you're going to offend someone, just don't say it. If you're worried about something someone else said, staff will get to it if it is a problem (and if the user hasn't already been banned). Bulbapedia does not discriminate against any race, religion, or ethnic background. If someone is openly expressing discretions against these groups they will be blocked indefinitely whether they use swear words or not. In the case of the provided situation, it would not be allowed as it may offend some people. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 00:45, 12 December 2012 (UTC)

:Hello. First, please add new talkpage comments to the bottom of the page. I've moved this comment for you. To move the section you created, all you need to do is copy-paste it to the area of the page where you want to be (make sure you delete it from the original area so it isn't on the page twice). However, I would suggest simply putting the section in the correct area of the page to begin with. To bring up the whole page for editing, just click the "edit this page" tab at the top of page and add the new section where it needs to be. I went ahead and looked over the section you added, and removed it as it was not the right style for this website. Please work your grammar and do not use "you" when writing for articles here. I would suggest that you look over the {{bp|manual of style}}, it'll help you out with some of the basics of editing here.

== Article about Misty's Gyarados ==

Hello, im bringing this up because way article about Gyarados was written brings confusion among fans making it seem like things are based on assumptions rather than actual proof itself. Its listed on main page as Misty pokemon, but in article about Gyarados way its worded make it seem like its gym pokemon. Which many fans find confusing judging by comments you can read online.

Since going by canon and what was showed in anime from moment Misty earned its trust Gyarados was showed to be used and trained only by her. One of proof to this was revealed in episode "Togepi Mirage" when Misty stated how she trained Gyarados teaching it flamethrower. Like its been already brought up in article Gyarados seem to establish special bond with Misty , bond we never saw existing between him and Daisy, Violet or LIly. Before MIsty returned to gym earning its respect it was also showed how he didn't listened to anyone being out of control, until Misty intervened choosing to be her partner and nothing afterwards indicate how anyone else beside Misty use him befriending it.

Which is one of basic ways trainers acquire new pokemon.Otherwise if we are going to count only captured pokemon as ones which belong to someone, than same logic could be applied to Dawn Togekiss or Brock Onix which they received as gifts from others. Or all befriended pokemon others acquired on travels.
In comparison all Brock pokemon are currently at gym, but that doesn't mean they belong to gym and new gym leader Forest.

Gyarados may be gym pokemon before(even though in canon such thing has never been stated), but that doesn't necessarily mean it still belongs to gym with canon treating it more as Misty's than gym pokemon. There are plenty other gym pokemon like Dewgong, Shelder, Goldeen etc but we don't see Misty taking them with her outside the gym, nor she was ever showed to be using them.Let alone being listed as her pokemon.
Only Gyarados is being taken with her whenever she leaves gym being treated in similar manner like Corsola, Staryu and other pokemon which belong to her are.It was also showed how she is the only one training it, learning flamethrower in process.
Likewise on every site whether its SPPF, or some Japanese poke site Gyarados is listed as one of Misty pokemon with only bulbapedia causing confusion listing it at same time both as Misty and gym pokemon?

Therefore i believe judging by what canon showed so far it would be more accurate to classify Gyarados as Misty rather than gym pokemon since unlike its case with other pokemon we reliably know belong to Cerulean, Gyarados is another story bring showed to have special bond only with Misty listening, training and being taken with her whenever she leaves gym. For all aforementioned reasons wouldn't it be more authentic to say how Gyarados is pokemon Misty befriended, since its treated basically like every pokemon which belongs to Misty? --[[User:Pokemon fan 132|Pokemon fan 132]] ([[User talk:Pokemon fan 132|talk]]) 08:46, 18 February 2013 (UTC)

== Move trivia ==

I don't think that "the only non-X-type Pokémon that can learn the move" trivia should be on the move pages, since you can see it easily just by looking at the move lists (which is why sprite trivia isn't allowed). For example, when you read the {{m|Poison Gas}} page, you'll notice immediately that Drowzee and Hypno are the only Psychic types without having to read the trivia section.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|電禅]][[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|Den Zen]]''' 21:50, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
:I considered that, but it really doesn't belong on Pokémon species pages either. Being the only one not of a type to learn it is potentially notable, but the major question is where to put it. It is easily visible on the move pages, but it's not really relevant on the species pages since it's more about the move than the Pokémon. I will look into the best place to put them tonight. [[User:Crystal Talian|Crystal]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|Talian]] 22:09, 25 March 2013 (UTC)
::I'm also dumbfounded as to why you reverted my edits. In my opinion, all those reversions and pseudo-reversions of yours should be reverted, as the trivia does not belong in the move articles (see my talk page), and if it is notable, then of course the species articles are the appropriate locations. Really can't follow the logic in the argument that the content is not relevant for the species articles. How is it not? I'd even say it's more about the Pokémon than the move. Do you think that the fact that Bagon and its evolutionary relatives are the only non-Fire-type Pokémon to learn Ember says more about Ember than the Pokémon? I don't. I'd appreciate it if you could just undo your brash actions, disregarding any face-saving that could be gained from arguing and making this "major question" more complicated than it has to be; there are two location options, one is inapproriate due to being beyond redundant, the other is not - species articles if notable, nowhere if not notable. That was the conclusion I reached when editing, reflected in my edit summaries, so if you want to oppose that, at least make up your mind before reverting. Also, it appears your reversions are made without regard to my grammar-fixes (compare your restored Flame Wheel (move) to what you removed from Rattata (Pokémon)), which is, you know, counterproductive.

If you want you could mention the waiting time for the Dream Clouds since it starts at 45 minutes max, for all clouds to be ready with 4, 25 minute upgrades that increases it up to 145 minutes or 2 hrs. 25 min.

1)As I mentioned earlier, it might be good idea to update the pages for some species not from Unova (the changed exp yield, as currently pages have the Gen IV yield as far as I know, while the EV yield list has Gen V yield)

2)[[Lum Berry]] - Not sure if to delete these wild, because none of these Pokémon are legitimately found within a game (with [[Faraway Island|one exception]], which can be left out as {{tt|it's legit|Redundant Department of Redundancy much?}}).

Looks like 173penguin, who happens to be new at the website... well, I think you remember the story, as recently you undid many prejudicial edits by him to the Missingno. page.

Well, I don't want to manualy undo each edit (would clog up and... you know, probably skip at least one... whatever-it wouldn't be nice), so could you please, as a staff member, revert again to the last edit before all of that and put a quick end to this nightmare?

:"intelligent, heroic and benevolent" are all subjective, unless they are used officially. And I don't think those traits were overly evident in the movie either. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 10:30, 16 March 2013 (UTC)

== Redone GB Sounds article ==

Do you [[User:SatoMew2/GB Sounds|like it]]? Your template needs some improvements, though. The Dream World artwork should be an optional parameter and there must be a way to specify that an item is only available in a given generation. [[User:SatoMew2|Sato]][[User talk:SatoMew2|Mew]] 17:08, 16 March 2013 (UTC)
:Also, I tried performing the {{DL|List of glitches in Generation IV|GB Sounds glitch}} on my European English HeartGold and it seems to be fixed. So you might want to check that out on the American English and other localizations to confirm if it is only present in the Japanese versions. [[User:SatoMew2|Sato]][[User talk:SatoMew2|Mew]] 00:51, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
::Overall I like your page; I hadn't really planned for it to be used on pages without artwork (most items have DW art, key items in Gen V have [[a:Category:Key item obtain sprites|key item obtain sprites]], and most other key items at least have some form of artwork like the Old Sea Chart). I've set up the template to include an exception for items with no art, but it doesn't look as nice anymore.
::I have done the glitch before in my Australian version (which is probably the same as the European one), and just tried it then and it worked. I had ''a lot'' of trouble figuring out how to get it to work originally (see [[User talk:TheOriginalOne#GB Sounds glitch]], and that's not the only conversation we had about it), but it does occur. Chances are the issue you're having is the same as mine was: the glitch will not occur if you use the GB Sounds as a registered item; you must open the Bag and use it from there. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 14:50, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
:::I understand your concern about the template kinda losing its charm but it doesn't look that bad either, in my opinion. Now all you need to add is a parameter to specify that the item is only available/present in a single generation. In the case of the GB Sounds, this would instead read "Only in Generation IV" as opposed to "Introduced in Generation IV" (disregarding the fact that it is present in the internal data of the Generation V games, of course).
:::I don't have the GB Sounds registered so I always called it from the Bag when attempting to perform the glitch. I also made sure no wild Pokémon encounters took place and the glitch still didn't work. Maybe it has to do with the tiles you Surf on between Route 20 and Cinnabar Island, since I always kept at least one tile from the border between the locations. [[User:SatoMew2|Sato]][[User talk:SatoMew2|Mew]] 18:49, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
::::(Funny, I found a conversation that is somehow a repetition of what happened between me and SnorlaxMonster more than one year ago) Well, are you SURE you did turn on the GBS while SURFING at one of the locations, and off while STILL SURFING in THE OTHER ONE? Or are you even sure you didn't have in turned on in Cinnabar and Route 20 before trying to do this and since you had flown there for the last time? [[User:TheOriginalOne|'''The''']][[User talk:TheOriginalOne|'''Original''']][[Special:Contributions/TheOriginalOne|'''One''']] 23:23, 17 March 2013 (UTC)
:::::I followed the instructions from the linked YouTube video in the article where the glitch is documented. [[User:SatoMew2|Sato]][[User talk:SatoMew2|Mew]] 00:55, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
::::::Well, the simplest way I can get it to work is to simply go to Route 20 with normal music, open the Bag and turn the GB Sounds on, close the Bag and menu then open the Bag again and disable it (all while surfing); this results in instant silence. If that doesn't work, I don't know what the problem is. {{unsigned|SnorlaxMonster}}
:::::::I guess I found out what I was doing wrong so I attempted the glitch again and it worked. So yeah, it's confirmed to be present in both Japanese versions and all worldwide English releases. However, other localizations might have it fixed. [[User:SatoMew2|Sato]][[User talk:SatoMew2|Mew]] 13:59, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
The European versions were the last ones. Or did you want to test the korean version? (it's older anyway) There are many glitches that are much more easily noticed than this one and that are not corrected tough. My discovery was just luck (a glitch that was just discovered 2 years after the game first came out), and this glitch isn't particularly important anyway. There are a lot of glitches registered in bulbapedia. Do you think we individually test each of them on all the versions of the same game, including the korean one, which is normally the last to come out? [[User:TheOriginalOne|'''The''']][[User talk:TheOriginalOne|'''Original''']][[Special:Contributions/TheOriginalOne|'''One''']] 16:04, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
:I didn't imply any of that. But the reason I brought it up is because certain glitches do get fixed in the localizations, like at least some of what I collectively call "overworld sprite repositioning glitches" (old man on the roof in Cinnabar Island, etc.) in Generation I.

== Template edit ==

Sorry, but I'm that kind of guy who just likes to rush into action, without going through some boring, long, time-taking, eternal discussions first. And besides, it was an OK edit, right? What do I need to do to make it approved? PLEASE!! I would at least SOMETIMES get to make some cool, BIG edits without someone getting in my way with details like this! --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:45, 18 March 2013 (UTC) PS. Sorry about that, but, I'm just a little sensitive about these "nasty surprises" that Bulbapedia sometimes has to offer. So anyway, could you please answer what do I have to do in order to get my (completely mature and OK) edit back up again?
:I agree, things tend to sit in "discussion phase" for far too long on Bulbapedia (see all my proposed stuff in my userspace). I actually have [[User:SnorlaxMonster/Sandbox#Template:Gym_Leaders_of_Unova|another design]] of that template, and I think it's best to submit the idea and see what people think before making a change that affects a huge number of pages (and the template in question should have been protected anyway, something which I have now fixed). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|'''Snorlax''']][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|'''Monster''']] 12:47, 18 March 2013 (UTC)
::Your template suggestion was not bad, but I think that my version made it more clear which game had which leaders.

== [[User talk:Marked +-+-+/Learnlist templates]] ==

Someone might wanna do something with this. It's lying there, untouched for a while. I am not sure if it's exactly... good (since I could miss a small thing that's damn important for fully correct functionality), but it might be good idea to update old movesets to the Gen V's standard.

== Pokémon Mobile System GB stuff ==

===Compatible software===
We should make a table of compatible Mobile System GB software (not the Pokémon version, that is) but I'm not sure how exactly.

===PokéCom Center-related===
====GS Ball event====
The reason why I put the incomplete notification on the section for the events held by the PokéCom Center is because I'm not sure of the following:
* The true name of the minigame known as "Chieko Dice" as I don't see it being called that way (see below);
* The so-called "ten card quiz" may be incorrect as I see the quiz involving 5 questions for the April 2001 event and 8 for the May 2001 event, as described [http://www.geocities.co.jp/Playtown-Darts/9915/serebi.htm here] and [http://www.geocities.co.jp/Playtown-Darts/9915/serebi5.htm here], respectively.
Those links also refer to the minigame as 「チエコ」に{{jwp|サイコロ}}, with サイコロ being the Japanese term for the {{wp|dice}} game. It also mentions that チエコ ''Chieko'' is from Azalea Town.

To put it simply, we do know there was a minigame involving dice and that there were quizzes but we're not sure on the minigame's name and the actual amount of questions in the quiz or quizzes.

====Trade Corner info====
It probably needs expansion based on this unused English text (taken from the text dump I have—it's probably missing internal placeholder strings; I also adapted the text and replaced the caps with the <nowiki><sc></nowiki> tag):

<blockquote>Hello! Welcome to <sc>Pok</sc>é<sc>Com Center Trade Corner</sc>. You can trade <sc>Pok</sc>é<sc>mon</sc> with other people far away.

==Naming conventions for glitch pokémon sprites==
Recently I've been very confused about this. I read what was stipulated [[Bulbapedia:Project GlitchDex#Glitch Pokémon sprites|here]], and immediately noticed that it wasn't being followed on most images. There were many different models on those uploads - how I wish autoconfirmed users could move pages on the archives just like in bulbapedia... WAIT! Before you start doing anything, let me tell you why am I really concerned on this matter, which is the defect of the current convention: what about pokémon with more than one front/back sprite? Maybe putting a "2" at the end of one, but... what about Missingno.? Its sprite depends on the hexadecimal! In addition, there are a few glitch pokémon that share the same dex number... on the same game! And a possible other defect: are there any glitch pokémon that can either be shiny or not?

So, would you agree with, before a mass move of pages, changing the convention to "[game]Glitch[hex][_b][_2].png"? [[User:TheOriginalOne|'''The''']][[User talk:TheOriginalOne|'''Original''']][[Special:Contributions/TheOriginalOne|'''One''']] 23:52, 19 March 2013 (UTC)

== Nintendo Space World '97 flyer ==

[[File:Mew NSW97 flyer.jpg|thumb|right|The flyer]]
I found this old flyer for Nintendo Space World '97 on an archived 2ch thread, I believe. Then reverse-searched the image to find a copy in better resolution and quality. It seems to be announcing the Mew event at NSW '97 but I'm not sure. And I don't know where this could be used so I'm asking you to take a look at it, if you don't mind. [[User:SatoMew2|Sato]][[User talk:SatoMew2|Mew]] 22:24, 20 March 2013 (UTC)
:Me and SnorlaxMonster worked together to do the event page revamp, and events are a specialty of mine so I should be able to help a little. Based on the Space World '97 text from the [http://www.nintendo.co.jp/n12/index.html official site], it is defiantly a poster detailing the Nintendo Space World '97 Mew. Also the poster does say that at most 10,000 people will receive Mew. However most text is still very small for translation, but the bottom appears to be describing the postcard submission process. It should be noted there appears to be a discrepancy in dates though, the offical site says November 22 to 24, 1997 while the poster appears to say November 22 to 23, 1997. As for the location of the poster, I would say somewhere on [[List of Japanese event Pokémon distributions in Generation I|this page]] but I can't say where for certain. '''[[User:Lady Ariel|Lady]] [[User talk:Lady Ariel|Ariel]]''' 00:14, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
::If the dates are inconsistent, it should be mentioned. Also, just a small correction: the referred number is 100,000 instead of 10,000 because １０万 is '''10×10,000''' or '''104''' ({{tt|万|まん}} means ''ten thousand''). It's the same situation with the Japanese name of {{m|Thunderbolt}}. [[User:SatoMew2|Sato]][[User talk:SatoMew2|Mew]] 14:41, 21 March 2013 (UTC)
