== Hi... ==<br />
<br />
I was wondering if you could help me out with something. The article [[Serebii.net forums]] has been under strict protection since 2005. It serves little purpose, and any information it contains could easily be merged into the [[Serebii.net]] article. I was wondering if you could help by deleting the article because of your admin status.<br />
<br />

== Concerning anti-gunjump measures for the dub... ==<br />
<br />
Setting protection to expire at around 10:00 UTC (the standard time for Japanese-based anti-gunjump measures) for a dub-based anti-gunjump measure is just begging for gun-jumpers to take advantage of a {{tt|three|Or four, depending on whether it's daylight savings time or standard time}}-hour window. The dub episodes premiere at 9:00 AM Eastern, which corresponds to 13:00 UTC during DST and 14:00 UTC when DST is not in effect. I've already adjusted the protections for [[DP101]] to fit with the dub airtime, but keep this in mind for the future. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 14:23, 28 March 2009 (UTC)<br />
:I was matching the time placed on {{an|Jun}}, that was there at the time. Please note I don't get Cartoon Network, as I am not an American, and don't keep track of stations I do not have any ability to watch.

::Do I need to get certain categories approved before I go about creating them? I was thinking the archives should have file naming standards. It is a noticeable pain in the ass to get proper results from image searches; as people put irrelevant info in the summary or give bad nomenclature for the actual file name. It would be infinitely easier to categorize images if they turned up easier/accurately on searches. Furthermore, if there were stricter rules for how people upload, the chaotic shit storm that is the Archives can be controlled NOW. Just random thoughts, BTW. Also, I could care less about any admin status/privileges--there were just some actions that I wanted to take within the archives that I wanted to initiate that were inhibited due to the lack of higher clearance(s).

:::If there is something you cannot do on the forums, leave a message on the appropriate talk page and an administrator will get onto it. And as for the standard file names, that is a work in progress. Categories should be generally straight forward, but it may be best to check with [[a:User talk:Maverick Nate|Maverick Nate]] before doing that, as he is the "boss" over there.

I am sorry that I caused a lot of strife over this, it's just that it seemed wrong for someone to remove that piece of trivia in the first place just because said user didn't agree with it.

:You might have to play with it a little depending on what you're trying to show/hide.

Either way, it's an ad hominem argument, and you haven't actually addressed my point: There's no reason to lock topics not in danger of vandalism and which wouldn't harm the Wiki much even if they were vandalized. "It's the way we've been doing it" is as good a reason for this as it is for, say... y'know, there are just way too many ways that sentence can end, it's ridiculous.<br />

:::What reason is there to NOT have it protected? Any edits made to the page by anyone other then an administrator would either be spelling corrections (which aren't currently needed), or redlink fixing (which also isn't currently needed). The only time it will be updated will be when administration decides to re-open nominations, and as such, only an administrator should be editing the page. With the page protected, this makes it impossible for anyone to make a mistake.<br />
:::Just to make it perfectly clear, we are discussing whither or not a ''currently unused'' page should be protected from edits. That is, a page that needs no editing currently, and further, ''should not'' be edited currently.

<br />
(Not sure who to ask for this, so if you could point me in the right direction, that'd be great. ^_^)<br />
I've traced a number of TCG expansion symbols in Illustrator, and was thinking of uploading them all as SVGs, which is sort of like what Wikipedia likes to do for this kind of thing, except that the image previews turn out broken, making them useless in every practical sense.

:SVGs don't work with the Bulbawikis. I'm not exactly sure why, but I think it is due to an extension not being installed, or something to that degree. So, as far as I know, it has nothing to do with Wikia, or Wikipedia. Also, what do you mean by "traced a number of TCG expansion symbols"? If the images aren't official release, I'm pretty sure they shouldn't be used in articles unless they're set symbols we don't have any way of obtaining. I'd suggest talking to {{ut|Maverick Nate|Maverick Nate}} about your images and see if he wants them to use, if he does, you would need to upload them in PNG format. - [[User:Kogoro|<span style="color:#DA70D6;">'''<sc>Kogoro</sc>'''</span>]] '''|''' [[User talk:Kogoro|<span style="color:#FFB6C1;">'''<sc>Talk to me</sc>'''</span>]] - 16:40, 30 April 2009 (UTC)<br />

== Re: Snorlax ==<br />
<br />
You totally missed the point.<br />
<br />
I forgot that a special item had to be held by snorlax to breed a baby form, where with Pikachu normal breeding produced a baby form. somewhere in my thinking process i must have been focused on how a Pikachu and Pichu are and forgot that doesn't fully apply to a Snorlax and munchlax/<br />
<br />
Despite not having ever been shown evolving on screen, Its common sense that Ash's Pikachu had to of evolved from a Pichu. I just got mixed up and put something without thinking it through. It was a miscalculation on my part, However that doesn't warrent flaming and people butting in.<br />
<br />
I got blocked for what could be called taunting, which is the same thing Psycho was doing. Also Sketch didn't get on me for acting like i had authority to give a warning. Everyone had some extent of authority in warnings. He was just stating that since i got blocked for a similar thing that i'm not the best person to get on psycho for that. Its the kettle calling the pot black. <br />

You might want to stay out of these types of things, because when you jump in late it leads to trouble and misunderstandings. Its like trying to talk to someone about spiderman 3 when you only saw the last 4 minutes. [[User:Yami Takashi|Yami]] 18:21, 8 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:No, you missed the point Yami. The point is this: '''''What you added did not belong, it was speculation. It does not belong on other anime Pokémon pages either unless the previous form is shown.''''' Common sense doesn't matter. In technicality, yes Pikachu probably did evolve from a Pichu, but unless officially stated that such evolution occurred, it does not get mentioned. (Especially since Pikachu was introduced in EP001, during Gen 1, before Pichu were even known. Did every Pikachu in Red, Blue, Green & Yellow evolve from a Pichu?)<br />
<br />
:You did get blocked for taunting, PR's edit summary was not taunting in the least. Maybe if he said "''Hahaha, you're an idiot. No proof Snorlax was ever a Munchlax''" it would have been, but he didn't, so his edit summary was fine. Also, his name is '''PsychicRider''' not Psycho, or anything of the sort. Some could consider you calling him "Psycho" as harassment.<br />
<br />
:Now, as a member of the {{bp|Editorial Board}} I think I have every right to get involved to stop pointless discussions that should have ended many many comments ago. So, no, I will not stay out of it.

Okay, I'm mostly freaking out with all the shit that has fucked me over this past week, and I need you to curb a little bit of it for me. Would it be possible to get as many of the images for the new cards as you can? Apparently, the remaining Arceus cards have been released, and I would appreciate it if you can get those for me. Also, could you try to e-mail Cipher (I am unable to at my current location) and get the SP M image? That will help me fantastically. I will try to deal with as much as I can when I get home tomorrow night, and hopefully get things under control for Advent. Thanks in advance, and this is probably my last response, so good luck.

<br />
1. Where was the opinion? That incest and pedophilia are wrong is an opinion?<br />
<br />
And I didn't say "Remove these shippings right away". I asked why we must list shippings that promote taboo practices. Last time I checked, asking the logic in including something in an article is a valid comment.<br />
<br />
2. I ask again. What rule did I break? After reading that, I still fail to see what I did that goes against that page's rules. I didn't attack anyone, edit someone else's comment, left my comment unsigned, or made an article-unrelated comment.<br />
<br />
3. Okay. I fail to see how writing "You don't help the article" as the reason for editing the comment I wrote asking a question, without telling me what I did wrong, is any less of a "jerkish edit summary" than was my answer to the edit, though.<br />

==Concern==<br />
Should we have the trainers on the Route pages have more information like giving the Pokémon the moves they use? Or would it be bad?<br />
Pros:<br />
*Gives people more information<br />
*Completes the Route more<br />
Cons:<br />
*Tables slow the server<br />
*Makes Bulbapedia more like a guide.<br />
Should I find the moves of the Pokémon and such or leave it be? [[User:Pyles|Pyles]] 19:00, 1 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:No, there's no need for ''every'' Trainer in every article that includes Trainers to have the moves known by their Pokémon. The major Trainers only should have that displayed, since they're like boss battles. You don't include information on every attack from the little enemies in other games every place they appear, and so likewise, you don't for the non-major Trainers. Rivals, Gym Leaders, Elite Four, Frontier Brains, Champions, and evil team major members get that. Basically, any Trainer that has a battle and overworld sprite specific to themselves.

So for the new party templates, which should we use for Silver? I’m probably gonna use the SoulSilver like his old templates are silver, but I want your opinion on it. They currently, without the updated sprites and everything, look like this:<br />
<br />

I know that I'm asking for updates on two infoboxes for a Pokémon product that has just been discontinued, but trust me, I know you wouldn't intentionally leave an infobox behind in getting update treatment. The infoboxes in question are {{template|TFG Figure Infobox}} and {{template|TFG Card Infobox}}. I tried hacking them into the newer style myself, but found it too complicated.

== Editing ==<br />
<br />
So I know that we have limits for how much we can edit userpages and subpages, so I've tried to keep my edits low in my <span class="plainlinks">[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User:Rocket_Admin_Hunter_Blade/Sandbox box of sand.]</span> What I want to know is: <br />
*How much, since I'm readying the templates for HGSS, I can edit it per day. I've kept it below the borderline of 4 so far, but I've needed to get off and on frequently, and I'm trying to get these done {{tt|ASAP|I'll be gone for a month and a half without a computer to work on and won't get back till mid or late August}} so I have time to do the party templates for other pages.<br />
*Would it be possible for me to make as many edits as I needed to if I move the templates to a specific page for only them?<br />
*Could you eventually lock all of the GenII Kanto and the Johto gym leaders' pages, along with Silver's and the E4/Lance's pages so that people don't try to add crappy templates and mess up the coding already there?<br />

== Berry Locations ==<br />
<br />
A looooong time back (December, 2007) you made a large group of edits to different pages about berries. You did a lot of reformatting, organized it more, and added some new info. Among the places to obtain the berries (under Gen. III) you put the pickup ability for a lot - if not all - of them. You put Emerald and FR/LG for a lot. However, there are absolutely no berries that can obtained this way in Emerald; you must have been confused. Just wanted to let you know about this little mistake.

== Game character naming policy ==<br />
<br />
I understand the naming issues with chracters (across game, anime and manga etc.) and was writting up a local list myself to consolidate the links between each for quicker reference.<br />
<br />
I realised there wasn't really a set explanation of a consistant method for game character naming used on Bulbapedia. I also checked for a policy on this and was suprised to not see one.<br />
<br />
Looking over the talk pages, i see mention of different methods such as default names and/or [[Talk:Leaf_(game)|hidden data trainers]] that have been used to name the game characters over the generations. This seems rather inconsistant and without much public explanation for review and confirmation.<br />
<br />
I'm unsure as to where a specific default name is obtained, especially in cases where the default name is not in the list of default names on the game (namely brendan, may, lucas and dawn). It was hinted it was by not entering a name (for player/rival), but the player list picks one at random, where as the rival is the first name on the list. Both lists differ by version though, so it's not possible to use those lists for naming of the characters (Tested with Fire Red only tbh).<br />
The lack of recording these '''hidden''' default names in the articles makes the names seem like unfoudned claimes and lacking citation.<br />
<br />
I propose these names be recorded with some note on how they're obtained in the MoS or something. It would be a great help and any explanation is appericiated.<br />

:Most of it can be checked on the specific talk pages. We shouldn't need to put an explanation on every danged article about where we got the names, most especially since they're well known. The main problem that comes up is when fans come up with "LOL WHY LEEF WHY NOT GREEN *move move move*" No one just accepts that despite being a fansite we do check stuff over before naming things. '''[[User:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#DAA520">''TTE''</span>]][[User talk:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#C0C0C0">chidna</span>]]''' 03:51, 16 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::The problem is in most cases the information isn't on the talk pages. I'm not asking for an explanation on every page, just an explanation in the MoS or policies.<br />
<br />
::You say they're well known, when the only evidence i see for that is the bulbapedia articles themselves who have made them well known. I'm not trying to suggest you're putting up false information either, but i am saying that the methods you've chosen for naming appear to be arbitrary without any evidence to show how the names are chosen (as well as the the differing methods).<br />
::The nature of a wiki generally doesn't allow something like that, so i'm shocked this is considered an exception. It makes it near impossible to use your naming in any legitmate work without the explanations as there's no way to confirm the research, which is where i'm having trouble.<br />
<br />
::If anything Leaf is the one i find easiest to believe, as it's roughly explained. It's pretty much all the others i'm having issues with.<br />
::I can only guess it started out with the first name on the default list for players from first version (Red, Gold) is chosen for the male player character and the same for the rival list (as it's always the opposite), resulting the the third always the female, which seems fitting for back then. But starting with RSE, the names you've chosen aren't even in the default name lists and without explanation, so those names are seemingly pulled out of thin air without explanation or a reference to where they're from.<br />

:::::Exactly. Most are obvious. You could similarly say that the name [[Brock]] is pulled outta nowhere for our buddy with the Croagunk, but it's in the games. His name's Brock. People address him as that. The anime, people address him as that. That's where Brendan, May, Lucas, and Dawn come from. That's their official game names.

::::::Not "exactly". He's not a character with a customisable name. The "official" game names are nothing more than fans using various methods to determine what they think their intended names are until an official one is given elsewhere (and for my purposes, i need to seperate incarnation where they are different). The fact that a set name actually being given is a rarity for these characters is why when names are actually given, it should be noted as such. The anime characters are not even the same, so no point trying to use that as a source even if the given names do end up matching.<br />
<br />
::::::It would seem you're still not getting the fact that "because we say so" is not good enough. It's expected of an encyclopedic wiki to provide references and explanation for others to refer to and research themselves. When something is arbitrary but needs to be set for the purpose of the wiki (fan info due to lack of official), that usually falls into the realm of policy to set the precedent for people to follow and/or make note of the variation. It's something i've delt with extensively on WoWWiki, yet Bulbapedia does nethier right now. If you feel that's not the job of the wiki, then nevermind, as i must be banging my head against the wall.<br />
<br />

==Usernames==<br />
I was wondering if I could create a few other accounts with usernames by which I am popularly known on other wikis/Pokémon sites?

If allowed to create them, I have no intention of editing from the other accounts.<br><br />
Also, I was thinking of outright changing my username, and I’m told that the way to do so is by asking you... {{tt|I haven’t picked yet|I expect you don’t really care one way or the other, but if you do, the advice is welcome.

:::::Those colors already do exist. I've been meaning to bring this up about Castform. I really think we should change it. Just because {{u|MisterE13|one person}} has four seasons, doesn't mean everyone does. We may have Spring, Summer, Fall, and Winter...but many places in the world only have two seasons: Rainy and Dry. Isn't it a little odd when we have Normal and Snow-cloud in the middle of he Rainy season, and Sunny and Rainy in the middle of the Dry season? Furthermore, the north and south hemispheres have the seasons at different times. Why do we have Snow-cloud in the middle of Summer, Rainy in Fall, Normal in spring, and Sunny in Winter? Isn't that wrong? They need to be based on some sort of universal time standard, like every hour.

== Setlistentry Template ==<br />
<br />
I began to implement your new template onto the expansion pages. Jungle, Fossil and Base 2 have already been done. It is however, going to take a long time to update all of the tables for every set, and with the current layout of the template, is going to cause an issue with Japanese sets with numbers and promotional sets. Is there any way to put the code for the updated look around the existing tables? <span style="color:#0066FF">'''[[Surf (move)|~~]]'''</span>'''[[User:nuva-kal|<span style="color:#00CCFF">nuva</span>]]'''<span style="color:#0066FF">'''-'''</span>[[User_talk:nuva-kal|<span style="color:#0099FF">'''kal'''</span>]] 09:24, 30 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

==Concern==<br />
Should we have the trainers on the Route pages have more information like giving the Pokémon the moves they use? Or would it be bad?<br />
Pros:<br />
*Gives people more information<br />
*Completes the Route more<br />
Cons:<br />
*Tables slow the server<br />
*Makes Bulbapedia more like a guide.<br />
Should I find the moves of the Pokémon and such or leave it be? [[User:Pyles|Pyles]] 19:00, 1 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:No, there's no need for ''every'' Trainer in every article that includes Trainers to have the moves known by their Pokémon. The major Trainers only should have that displayed, since they're like boss battles. You don't include information on every attack from the little enemies in other games every place they appear, and so likewise, you don't for the non-major Trainers. Rivals, Gym Leaders, Elite Four, Frontier Brains, Champions, and evil team major members get that. Basically, any Trainer that has a battle and overworld sprite specific to themselves.

So for the new party templates, which should we use for Silver? I’m probably gonna use the SoulSilver like his old templates are silver, but I want your opinion on it. They currently, without the updated sprites and everything, look like this:<br />

*Would it be possible for me to make as many edits as I needed to if I move the templates to a specific page for only them?<br />

A looooong time back (December, 2007) you made a large group of edits to different pages about berries. You did a lot of reformatting, organized it more, and added some new info.

== Game character naming policy ==<br />
<br />
I understand the naming issues with chracters (across game, anime and manga etc.) and was writting up a local list myself to consolidate the links between each for quicker reference.<br />
<br />
I realised there wasn't really a set explanation of a consistant method for game character naming used on Bulbapedia. I also checked for a policy on this and was suprised to not see one.<br />
<br />
Looking over the talk pages, i see mention of different methods such as default names and/or [[Talk:Leaf_(game)|hidden data trainers]] that have been used to name the game characters over the generations. This seems rather inconsistant and without much public explanation for review and confirmation.<br />
<br />
I'm unsure as to where a specific default name is obtained, especially in cases where the default name is not in the list of default names on the game (namely brendan, may, lucas and dawn). It was hinted it was by not entering a name (for player/rival), but the player list picks one at random, where as the rival is the first name on the list. Both lists differ by version though, so it's not possible to use those lists for naming of the characters (Tested with Fire Red only tbh).<br />
The lack of recording these '''hidden''' default names in the articles makes the names seem like unfoudned claimes and lacking citation.<br />
<br />
I propose these names be recorded with some note on how they're obtained in the MoS or something. It would be a great help and any explanation is appericiated.<br />

:Most of it can be checked on the specific talk pages. We shouldn't need to put an explanation on every danged article about where we got the names, most especially since they're well known. The main problem that comes up is when fans come up with "LOL WHY LEEF WHY NOT GREEN *move move move*" No one just accepts that despite being a fansite we do check stuff over before naming things.

<br />
::The problem is in most cases the information isn't on the talk pages. I'm not asking for an explanation on every page, just an explanation in the MoS or policies.<br />
<br />
::You say they're well known, when the only evidence i see for that is the bulbapedia articles themselves who have made them well known. I'm not trying to suggest you're putting up false information either, but i am saying that the methods you've chosen for naming appear to be arbitrary without any evidence to show how the names are chosen (as well as the the differing methods).<br />
::The nature of a wiki generally doesn't allow something like that, so i'm shocked this is considered an exception. It makes it near impossible to use your naming in any legitmate work without the explanations as there's no way to confirm the research, which is where i'm having trouble.<br />
<br />
::If anything Leaf is the one i find easiest to believe, as it's roughly explained. It's pretty much all the others i'm having issues with.<br />
::I can only guess it started out with the first name on the default list for players from first version (Red, Gold) is chosen for the male player character and the same for the rival list (as it's always the opposite), resulting the the third always the female, which seems fitting for back then. But starting with RSE, the names you've chosen aren't even in the default name lists and without explanation, so those names are seemingly pulled out of thin air without explanation or a reference to where they're from.<br />

::::::Not "exactly". He's not a character with a customisable name. The "official" game names are nothing more than fans using various methods to determine what they think their intended names are until an official one is given elsewhere (and for my purposes, i need to seperate incarnation where they are different). The fact that a set name actually being given is a rarity for these characters is why when names are actually given, it should be noted as such. The anime characters are not even the same, so no point trying to use that as a source even if the given names do end up matching.<br />
<br />
::::::It would seem you're still not getting the fact that "because we say so" is not good enough. It's expected of an encyclopedic wiki to provide references and explanation for others to refer to and research themselves. When something is arbitrary but needs to be set for the purpose of the wiki (fan info due to lack of official), that usually falls into the realm of policy to set the precedent for people to follow and/or make note of the variation. It's something i've delt with extensively on WoWWiki, yet Bulbapedia does nethier right now. If you feel that's not the job of the wiki, then nevermind, as i must be banging my head against the wall.<br />
<br />

==Usernames==<br />
I was wondering if I could create a few other accounts with usernames by which I am popularly known on other wikis/Pokémon sites? Not for use in editing, but to minimize the chance of being impersonated. The reason I’m asking beforehand is because I saw a rash of account creation by vandals a week or so back and I don’t want to be accused of attempting sockpuppetry. If allowed to create them, I have no intention of editing from the other accounts.<br><br />
Also, I was thinking of outright changing my username, and I’m told that the way to do so is by asking you... {{tt|I haven’t picked yet|I expect you don’t really care one way or the other, but if you do, the advice is welcome. Leading candidates include LaprasBoi, my most common name on Pokémon sites, & WikidPoké, a combination of my Pokémon and “Wikid”, a prefix I often use for wiki usernames, derived from “wiki” and the local( Boston) slang “wicked”. WikidLaprasBoi covers both, but seems kind of long... I just don’t know.}}, but I wanted to check and see if this is indeed the proper procedure? --LaprasBoi 21:10, 17 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

Furthermore, the north and south hemispheres have the seasons at different times. Why do we have Snow-cloud in the middle of Summer, Rainy in Fall, Normal in spring, and Sunny in Winter?

Should we have the trainers on the Route pages have more information like giving the Pokémon the moves they use? Or would it be bad?<br />
Pros:<br />
*Gives people more information<br />
*Completes the Route more<br />
Cons:<br />
*Tables slow the server<br />
*Makes Bulbapedia more like a guide.<br />
Should I find the moves of the Pokémon and such or leave it be? [[User:Pyles|Pyles]] 19:00, 1 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:No, there's no need for ''every'' Trainer in every article that includes Trainers to have the moves known by their Pokémon. The major Trainers only should have that displayed, since they're like boss battles. You don't include information on every attack from the little enemies in other games every place they appear, and so likewise, you don't for the non-major Trainers. Rivals, Gym Leaders, Elite Four, Frontier Brains, Champions, and evil team major members get that. Basically, any Trainer that has a battle and overworld sprite specific to themselves.

== Berry Locations ==<br />
<br />
A looooong time back (December, 2007) you made a large group of edits to different pages about berries. You did a lot of reformatting, organized it more, and added some new info. Among the places to obtain the berries (under Gen. III) you put the pickup ability for a lot - if not all - of them. You put Emerald and FR/LG for a lot. However, there are absolutely no berries that can obtained this way in Emerald; you must have been confused. Just wanted to let you know about this little mistake.

== Game character naming policy ==<br />
<br />
I understand the naming issues with chracters (across game, anime and manga etc.) and was writting up a local list myself to consolidate the links between each for quicker reference.<br />
<br />
I realised there wasn't really a set explanation of a consistant method for game character naming used on Bulbapedia. I also checked for a policy on this and was suprised to not see one.<br />
<br />
Looking over the talk pages, i see mention of different methods such as default names and/or [[Talk:Leaf_(game)|hidden data trainers]] that have been used to name the game characters over the generations. This seems rather inconsistant and without much public explanation for review and confirmation.<br />
<br />
I'm unsure as to where a specific default name is obtained, especially in cases where the default name is not in the list of default names on the game (namely brendan, may, lucas and dawn). It was hinted it was by not entering a name (for player/rival), but the player list picks one at random, where as the rival is the first name on the list. Both lists differ by version though, so it's not possible to use those lists for naming of the characters (Tested with Fire Red only tbh).<br />
The lack of recording these '''hidden''' default names in the articles makes the names seem like unfoudned claimes and lacking citation.<br />
<br />
I propose these names be recorded with some note on how they're obtained in the MoS or something. It would be a great help and any explanation is appericiated.<br />

:Most of it can be checked on the specific talk pages. We shouldn't need to put an explanation on every danged article about where we got the names, most especially since they're well known. The main problem that comes up is when fans come up with "LOL WHY LEEF WHY NOT GREEN *move move move*" No one just accepts that despite being a fansite we do check stuff over before naming things. '''[[User:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#DAA520">''TTE''</span>]][[User talk:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#C0C0C0">chidna</span>]]''' 03:51, 16 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::The problem is in most cases the information isn't on the talk pages. I'm not asking for an explanation on every page, just an explanation in the MoS or policies.<br />
<br />
::You say they're well known, when the only evidence i see for that is the bulbapedia articles themselves who have made them well known. I'm not trying to suggest you're putting up false information either, but i am saying that the methods you've chosen for naming appear to be arbitrary without any evidence to show how the names are chosen (as well as the the differing methods).<br />
::The nature of a wiki generally doesn't allow something like that, so i'm shocked this is considered an exception. It makes it near impossible to use your naming in any legitmate work without the explanations as there's no way to confirm the research, which is where i'm having trouble.<br />
<br />
::If anything Leaf is the one i find easiest to believe, as it's roughly explained. It's pretty much all the others i'm having issues with.<br />
::I can only guess it started out with the first name on the default list for players from first version (Red, Gold) is chosen for the male player character and the same for the rival list (as it's always the opposite), resulting the the third always the female, which seems fitting for back then. But starting with RSE, the names you've chosen aren't even in the default name lists and without explanation, so those names are seemingly pulled out of thin air without explanation or a reference to where they're from.<br />

::::::Not "exactly". He's not a character with a customisable name. The "official" game names are nothing more than fans using various methods to determine what they think their intended names are until an official one is given elsewhere (and for my purposes, i need to seperate incarnation where they are different). The fact that a set name actually being given is a rarity for these characters is why when names are actually given, it should be noted as such. The anime characters are not even the same, so no point trying to use that as a source even if the given names do end up matching.<br />
<br />
::::::It would seem you're still not getting the fact that "because we say so" is not good enough. It's expected of an encyclopedic wiki to provide references and explanation for others to refer to and research themselves. When something is arbitrary but needs to be set for the purpose of the wiki (fan info due to lack of official), that usually falls into the realm of policy to set the precedent for people to follow and/or make note of the variation. It's something i've delt with extensively on WoWWiki, yet Bulbapedia does nethier right now. If you feel that's not the job of the wiki, then nevermind, as i must be banging my head against the wall.<br />
<br />

==Usernames==<br />
I was wondering if I could create a few other accounts with usernames by which I am popularly known on other wikis/Pokémon sites? Not for use in editing, but to minimize the chance of being impersonated. The reason I’m asking beforehand is because I saw a rash of account creation by vandals a week or so back and I don’t want to be accused of attempting sockpuppetry. If allowed to create them, I have no intention of editing from the other accounts.<br><br />
Also, I was thinking of outright changing my username, and I’m told that the way to do so is by asking you... {{tt|I haven’t picked yet|I expect you don’t really care one way or the other, but if you do, the advice is welcome. Leading candidates include LaprasBoi, my most common name on Pokémon sites, & WikidPoké, a combination of my Pokémon and “Wikid”, a prefix I often use for wiki usernames, derived from “wiki” and the local( Boston) slang “wicked”.

Isn't it a little odd when we have Normal and Snow-cloud in the middle of he Rainy season, and Sunny and Rainy in the middle of the Dry season? Furthermore, the north and south hemispheres have the seasons at different times. Why do we have Snow-cloud in the middle of Summer, Rainy in Fall, Normal in spring, and Sunny in Winter? Isn't that wrong? They need to be based on some sort of universal time standard, like every hour.

I began to implement your new template onto the expansion pages. Jungle, Fossil and Base 2 have already been done. It is however, going to take a long time to update all of the tables for every set, and with the current layout of the template, is going to cause an issue with Japanese sets with numbers and promotional sets.

==Concern==<br />
Should we have the trainers on the Route pages have more information like giving the Pokémon the moves they use? Or would it be bad?<br />
Pros:<br />
*Gives people more information<br />
*Completes the Route more<br />
Cons:<br />
*Tables slow the server<br />
*Makes Bulbapedia more like a guide.<br />
Should I find the moves of the Pokémon and such or leave it be? [[User:Pyles|Pyles]] 19:00, 1 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:No, there's no need for ''every'' Trainer in every article that includes Trainers to have the moves known by their Pokémon. The major Trainers only should have that displayed, since they're like boss battles. You don't include information on every attack from the little enemies in other games every place they appear, and so likewise, you don't for the non-major Trainers. Rivals, Gym Leaders, Elite Four, Frontier Brains, Champions, and evil team major members get that. Basically, any Trainer that has a battle and overworld sprite specific to themselves.

So for the new party templates, which should we use for Silver? I’m probably gonna use the SoulSilver like his old templates are silver, but I want your opinion on it. They currently, without the updated sprites and everything, look like this:<br />

*Would it be possible for me to make as many edits as I needed to if I move the templates to a specific page for only them?<br />

A looooong time back (December, 2007) you made a large group of edits to different pages about berries. You did a lot of reformatting, organized it more, and added some new info.

Since the unused girl didn't have a name, Blue's the closest we've got, especially considering that promo art Sugimori did that was reused by Special...

== Game character naming policy ==<br />
<br />
I understand the naming issues with chracters (across game, anime and manga etc.) and was writting up a local list myself to consolidate the links between each for quicker reference.<br />
<br />
I realised there wasn't really a set explanation of a consistant method for game character naming used on Bulbapedia. I also checked for a policy on this and was suprised to not see one.<br />
<br />
Looking over the talk pages, i see mention of different methods such as default names and/or [[Talk:Leaf_(game)|hidden data trainers]] that have been used to name the game characters over the generations. This seems rather inconsistant and without much public explanation for review and confirmation.<br />
<br />
I'm unsure as to where a specific default name is obtained, especially in cases where the default name is not in the list of default names on the game (namely brendan, may, lucas and dawn). It was hinted it was by not entering a name (for player/rival), but the player list picks one at random, where as the rival is the first name on the list. Both lists differ by version though, so it's not possible to use those lists for naming of the characters (Tested with Fire Red only tbh).<br />
The lack of recording these '''hidden''' default names in the articles makes the names seem like unfoudned claimes and lacking citation.<br />
<br />
I propose these names be recorded with some note on how they're obtained in the MoS or something. It would be a great help and any explanation is appericiated.<br />

:Most of it can be checked on the specific talk pages. We shouldn't need to put an explanation on every danged article about where we got the names, most especially since they're well known. The main problem that comes up is when fans come up with "LOL WHY LEEF WHY NOT GREEN *move move move*" No one just accepts that despite being a fansite we do check stuff over before naming things.

<br />
::The problem is in most cases the information isn't on the talk pages. I'm not asking for an explanation on every page, just an explanation in the MoS or policies.<br />
<br />
::You say they're well known, when the only evidence i see for that is the bulbapedia articles themselves who have made them well known. I'm not trying to suggest you're putting up false information either, but i am saying that the methods you've chosen for naming appear to be arbitrary without any evidence to show how the names are chosen (as well as the the differing methods).<br />
::The nature of a wiki generally doesn't allow something like that, so i'm shocked this is considered an exception. It makes it near impossible to use your naming in any legitmate work without the explanations as there's no way to confirm the research, which is where i'm having trouble.<br />
<br />
::If anything Leaf is the one i find easiest to believe, as it's roughly explained. It's pretty much all the others i'm having issues with.<br />
::I can only guess it started out with the first name on the default list for players from first version (Red, Gold) is chosen for the male player character and the same for the rival list (as it's always the opposite), resulting the the third always the female, which seems fitting for back then. But starting with RSE, the names you've chosen aren't even in the default name lists and without explanation, so those names are seemingly pulled out of thin air without explanation or a reference to where they're from.<br />

:::::Exactly. Most are obvious. You could similarly say that the name [[Brock]] is pulled outta nowhere for our buddy with the Croagunk, but it's in the games. His name's Brock. People address him as that. The anime, people address him as that. That's where Brendan, May, Lucas, and Dawn come from. That's their official game names.

::::::Not "exactly". He's not a character with a customisable name. The "official" game names are nothing more than fans using various methods to determine what they think their intended names are until an official one is given elsewhere (and for my purposes, i need to seperate incarnation where they are different). The fact that a set name actually being given is a rarity for these characters is why when names are actually given, it should be noted as such. The anime characters are not even the same, so no point trying to use that as a source even if the given names do end up matching.<br />
<br />
::::::It would seem you're still not getting the fact that "because we say so" is not good enough. It's expected of an encyclopedic wiki to provide references and explanation for others to refer to and research themselves. When something is arbitrary but needs to be set for the purpose of the wiki (fan info due to lack of official), that usually falls into the realm of policy to set the precedent for people to follow and/or make note of the variation. It's something i've delt with extensively on WoWWiki, yet Bulbapedia does nethier right now. If you feel that's not the job of the wiki, then nevermind, as i must be banging my head against the wall.<br />
<br />

==Usernames==<br />
I was wondering if I could create a few other accounts with usernames by which I am popularly known on other wikis/Pokémon sites? Not for use in editing, but to minimize the chance of being impersonated. The reason I’m asking beforehand is because I saw a rash of account creation by vandals a week or so back and I don’t want to be accused of attempting sockpuppetry. If allowed to create them, I have no intention of editing from the other accounts.<br><br />
Also, I was thinking of outright changing my username, and I’m told that the way to do so is by asking you... {{tt|I haven’t picked yet|I expect you don’t really care one way or the other, but if you do, the advice is welcome. Leading candidates include LaprasBoi, my most common name on Pokémon sites, & WikidPoké, a combination of my Pokémon and “Wikid”, a prefix I often use for wiki usernames, derived from “wiki” and the local( Boston) slang “wicked”. WikidLaprasBoi covers both, but seems kind of long... I just don’t know.}}, but I wanted to check and see if this is indeed the proper procedure? --LaprasBoi 21:10, 17 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

Furthermore, the north and south hemispheres have the seasons at different times. Why do we have Snow-cloud in the middle of Summer, Rainy in Fall, Normal in spring, and Sunny in Winter?

Should we have the trainers on the Route pages have more information like giving the Pokémon the moves they use? Or would it be bad?<br />
Pros:<br />
*Gives people more information<br />
*Completes the Route more<br />
Cons:<br />
*Tables slow the server<br />
*Makes Bulbapedia more like a guide.<br />
Should I find the moves of the Pokémon and such or leave it be? [[User:Pyles|Pyles]] 19:00, 1 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:No, there's no need for ''every'' Trainer in every article that includes Trainers to have the moves known by their Pokémon. The major Trainers only should have that displayed, since they're like boss battles. You don't include information on every attack from the little enemies in other games every place they appear, and so likewise, you don't for the non-major Trainers. Rivals, Gym Leaders, Elite Four, Frontier Brains, Champions, and evil team major members get that. Basically, any Trainer that has a battle and overworld sprite specific to themselves.

== Berry Locations ==<br />
<br />
A looooong time back (December, 2007) you made a large group of edits to different pages about berries. You did a lot of reformatting, organized it more, and added some new info. Among the places to obtain the berries (under Gen. III) you put the pickup ability for a lot - if not all - of them. You put Emerald and FR/LG for a lot. However, there are absolutely no berries that can obtained this way in Emerald; you must have been confused. Just wanted to let you know about this little mistake.

== Game character naming policy ==<br />
<br />
I understand the naming issues with chracters (across game, anime and manga etc.) and was writting up a local list myself to consolidate the links between each for quicker reference.<br />
<br />
I realised there wasn't really a set explanation of a consistant method for game character naming used on Bulbapedia. I also checked for a policy on this and was suprised to not see one.<br />
<br />
Looking over the talk pages, i see mention of different methods such as default names and/or [[Talk:Leaf_(game)|hidden data trainers]] that have been used to name the game characters over the generations. This seems rather inconsistant and without much public explanation for review and confirmation.<br />
<br />
I'm unsure as to where a specific default name is obtained, especially in cases where the default name is not in the list of default names on the game (namely brendan, may, lucas and dawn). It was hinted it was by not entering a name (for player/rival), but the player list picks one at random, where as the rival is the first name on the list. Both lists differ by version though, so it's not possible to use those lists for naming of the characters (Tested with Fire Red only tbh).<br />
The lack of recording these '''hidden''' default names in the articles makes the names seem like unfoudned claimes and lacking citation.<br />
<br />
I propose these names be recorded with some note on how they're obtained in the MoS or something. It would be a great help and any explanation is appericiated.<br />

:Most of it can be checked on the specific talk pages. We shouldn't need to put an explanation on every danged article about where we got the names, most especially since they're well known. The main problem that comes up is when fans come up with "LOL WHY LEEF WHY NOT GREEN *move move move*" No one just accepts that despite being a fansite we do check stuff over before naming things. '''[[User:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#DAA520">''TTE''</span>]][[User talk:TTEchidna|<span style="color:#C0C0C0">chidna</span>]]''' 03:51, 16 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::The problem is in most cases the information isn't on the talk pages. I'm not asking for an explanation on every page, just an explanation in the MoS or policies.<br />
<br />
::You say they're well known, when the only evidence i see for that is the bulbapedia articles themselves who have made them well known. I'm not trying to suggest you're putting up false information either, but i am saying that the methods you've chosen for naming appear to be arbitrary without any evidence to show how the names are chosen (as well as the the differing methods).<br />
::The nature of a wiki generally doesn't allow something like that, so i'm shocked this is considered an exception. It makes it near impossible to use your naming in any legitmate work without the explanations as there's no way to confirm the research, which is where i'm having trouble.<br />
<br />
::If anything Leaf is the one i find easiest to believe, as it's roughly explained. It's pretty much all the others i'm having issues with.<br />
::I can only guess it started out with the first name on the default list for players from first version (Red, Gold) is chosen for the male player character and the same for the rival list (as it's always the opposite), resulting the the third always the female, which seems fitting for back then. But starting with RSE, the names you've chosen aren't even in the default name lists and without explanation, so those names are seemingly pulled out of thin air without explanation or a reference to where they're from.<br />

::::::Not "exactly". He's not a character with a customisable name. The "official" game names are nothing more than fans using various methods to determine what they think their intended names are until an official one is given elsewhere (and for my purposes, i need to seperate incarnation where they are different). The fact that a set name actually being given is a rarity for these characters is why when names are actually given, it should be noted as such. The anime characters are not even the same, so no point trying to use that as a source even if the given names do end up matching.<br />
<br />
::::::It would seem you're still not getting the fact that "because we say so" is not good enough. It's expected of an encyclopedic wiki to provide references and explanation for others to refer to and research themselves. When something is arbitrary but needs to be set for the purpose of the wiki (fan info due to lack of official), that usually falls into the realm of policy to set the precedent for people to follow and/or make note of the variation. It's something i've delt with extensively on WoWWiki, yet Bulbapedia does nethier right now. If you feel that's not the job of the wiki, then nevermind, as i must be banging my head against the wall.<br />
<br />

I was wondering if I could create a few other accounts with usernames by which I am popularly known on other wikis/Pokémon sites? Not for use in editing, but to minimize the chance of being impersonated. The reason I’m asking beforehand is because I saw a rash of account creation by vandals a week or so back and I don’t want to be accused of attempting sockpuppetry. If allowed to create them, I have no intention of editing from the other accounts.<br><br />
Also, I was thinking of outright changing my username, and I’m told that the way to do so is by asking you... {{tt|I haven’t picked yet|I expect you don’t really care one way or the other, but if you do, the advice is welcome. Leading candidates include LaprasBoi, my most common name on Pokémon sites, & WikidPoké, a combination of my Pokémon and “Wikid”, a prefix I often use for wiki usernames, derived from “wiki” and the local( Boston) slang “wicked”.

Isn't it a little odd when we have Normal and Snow-cloud in the middle of he Rainy season, and Sunny and Rainy in the middle of the Dry season? Furthermore, the north and south hemispheres have the seasons at different times. Why do we have Snow-cloud in the middle of Summer, Rainy in Fall, Normal in spring, and Sunny in Winter? Isn't that wrong? They need to be based on some sort of universal time standard, like every hour.

I began to implement your new template onto the expansion pages. Jungle, Fossil and Base 2 have already been done. It is however, going to take a long time to update all of the tables for every set, and with the current layout of the template, is going to cause an issue with Japanese sets with numbers and promotional sets.

* @CoolPika and buzzzzy, in other sections: I see your point. But this still is a great article. Manga section does need improvement, but it's still a good, comprehensive article. The language section is not the level of research you would expect from an ordinary fangirl. --'''[[Special:Contributions/Alpha Totodile|<font color="#00647f">α</font>]][[User:Alpha Totodile|<font color="#B69E00">ワニ</font>]][[User talk:Alpha Totodile|<font color="#93abc3">ノコ</font>]]''' 13:23, 1 July 2009 (UTC)<br />

* I agree with CP over here.

* I still think the artile needs a lot of work. There are far too many pictures and sections all bunched up together which would all work well as individual articles, and the text is very scruffily typed and placed. It starts of fairly well to be honest, but when I keep reading it completely loses the plot. It makes it seem like we are deliberately favouring Pikachu just because its the anime's main Pokemon. It shouldn't be an FA, really. [[User:Dusknoir477|Dusknoir477]] 12:49, 2 July 2009 (UTC)<br />

Her decisions are rarely anywhere near fair and her only reasons are always "because you suck", "shut up", "no one gives the shit", "fuck you". She does not deserve to be an admin.

This policy doesn't mention the number of additional pages which user's are allowed to have in addition to their main user space (User:<name>/<page title>). This would tie in with how much content a user would be allowed to have on their main user page (...shouldn't be larger than -- bytes). Also, if a page would become mainspace material upon completion, with Admin assent, would the number of edits per day affect this page?

== How about... ==<br />
<br />
Instead of the limit being 3 edits per day, and users being warned for going over the limit, how about we do some work on the site that will make it so that once you've done 3 edits to the <code>User:</code> name space, the edit button disappears for the rest of the day? Think about it. It'll take a lot of work, but it'll be for the better in my opinion, because then, we won't have to worry about anyone going over the limit ever again.

I've been seeing so many changes to this rule. I've gotten in trouble for make four edits to my userspace, and then someone said that making four was fine.

:Neither. The limit itself has been abolished. However, if the majority of your edits are to your userpage, or user subpages, or if you do exceed around 6 in a short period of time.

:In the past, every second user had pages and pages and pages of unencyclopedic crap. This took a huge toll on the server (every single tiny edit was saved forever and ever), and by disallowing edits here, the creation and growth of our Pokémon encyclopedia has improved a bazillion percent. It's nothing personal against anyone, but we are ''not'' Facebook or Myspace, we are Pokémon fans building a reference point about our hobby, interest and (in some extreme cases) obsession. The "don't edit lots" rule is similar, as we encourage you to contribute to articles instead of making your own personal webpage. &mdash; <small>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<font color="#0000C8">THE TROM</font></small>]] &mdash; 08:37, 17 May 2009 (UTC)<br />

<div>[[Image:100px-Game Boy Color.jpg|thumb|left|Game Boy Color]]<br />
<br />
The '''Game Boy Color''' is [[Nintendo]]'s 8-bit gaming handheld which succeeded its [[Game Boy|earlier model]]. It was released on October 21, 1998 in Japan, in November, 1998 in North America, and November 23, 1999 in Europe. The main feature of this model, as the name suggests, is the color screen. The first Pokémon game to be released on the Game Boy Color was the English version of {{game|Yellow}}. It and the Game Boy combined have sold 118.69 models worldwide, with its most popular games being ''[[Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions]]'', selling approximately 14.51 million copies in both Japan and the US combined.<br />
<br />
The processor, which is a Z80 work-alike with a few extra (bit manipulation) instructions, has a clock speed of approx. 8 MHz, twice as fast as that of the original Game Boy. The Game Boy Color also has four times as much memory as the original. The console boasted an impressive palette of 32,768 colors and was capable of simultaneously displaying 56 colors at once. It could also add basic four-color shading to games that had been released for the ordinary Game Boy. Additionally, a new palette-change feature was added for original Game Boy games; by holding the B button and any one of the directional arrows, the user could change the basic color palette for the game. The original Game Boy is also able to play some Game Boy Color games in monochrome (most notably {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}.)<br />
<br />
The Game Boy Color was later succeeded by the [[Game Boy Advance]].<br />
<br />
Game Boy Color games cannot be played on the [[Nintendo DS]] or [[Nintendo DS Lite]] handheld. The cartridges don't fit in the Game Boy Advance slot of the DS, and because the DS lacks the Zilog Z80 chip, which the GBA had (the [[Game Boy Micro]] also lacked the Zilog processor.)<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Heatran is the first, and so far only, legendary Pokémon that can either be male or female.<br />
* No other Pokémon has the same [[elemental types|type]] [[List of Pokémon with unique type combinations|combination]] as Heatran.<br />
* Heatran is the only Pokémon to take less than normal damage from both {{t|Dragon}}- and {{type2|Fire}} moves, and that only occurs because of its ability, which gives immunity to {{type2|Fire}} moves.<br />
** Heatran and {{p|Empoleon}} are the only non-{{type2|Ice}}s to have a 1/4 resistance to Ice.<br />
* Heatran is the only Pokémon that is not a {{type2|Rock}} that learns {{m|Stone Edge}} by level, not counting {{p|Steelix}} because it evolves from the {{type2|Rock}} {{p|Onix}}.<br />
* Heatran is the last {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon and the last {{type2|Steel}} Pokémon in [[National Dex]] order.<br />
* Heatran has the highest {{stat|Special Attack}} of any {{type2|Fire}} Pokémon.<br />
* Heatran is the seventh heaviest Pokémon.<br />
* If Heatran faints in a battle when the player trying to catch it, it will appear again in Stark Mountain in one week.<br />
===Origin===<br />
Heatran could be based on a mythical {{wp|Salamander (legendary creature)|salamander}}, a giant lizard of folklore made completely of lava and fire.<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Its name comes from the words ''{{wp|heat}}'' and possibly ''transfer''. The "doran" in its Japanese name can also be read as "dran", so it may be a combination of "heat" and "d'''ra'''go'''n'''".<br />

== Episode Synopses ==<br />
<br />
According to {{u|MAGNEDETH}} {{DL|Bulbapedia talk:Project Anime|Present tense to Past tense.|here}}, TTE has changed his mind and the synopses should be in present tense. The template has already been changed to reflect such, so you are actually doing the reverse of what the template says. Just letting you know. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] 20:48, 8 July 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Thanks for letting me know, but you left {{u|Galladeon}} the same message, and he didn't do anything wrong... --'''[[Special:Contributions/Alpha Totodile|<font color="#00647f">α</font>]][[User:Alpha Totodile|<font color="#B69E00">ワニ</font>]][[User talk:Alpha Totodile|<font color="#93abc3">ノコ</font>]]''' 20:50, 8 July 2009 (UTC)<br />
::A similar message. Galladeon was putting the tags on pages where the synopsis was in the present tense, which is slightly redundant now that the template has been changed. Not that you were really doing anything ''wrong'', I only noticed the change because I was looking at the recent changes when the conversation was going on, and it was never announced anywhere else, so it was easy to miss. [[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]] 21:15, 8 July 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
== [[Template:G]] ==<br />
<br />
I had to revert an edit you made on [[Junichi Masuda]] where you quoted a "misuse of <nowiki>{{g}}</nowiki>". The template's intended use is to link to the names of [[:Category:Games|video games]]. The template was used on the page in question was to link to [[Pokémon Stadium 2]], a video game and hence not a misuse.<br />
<br />
While we wholeheartedly encourage removing real misuses of <nowiki>{{g}}</nowiki>, don't go removing those that aren't misused. Remember: <nowiki>{{g|</nowiki>{{pkmn|Stadium 2}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki> good, <nowiki>{{g|</nowiki>{{pkmn|PiPiPi Adventure}}<nowiki>}}</nowiki> bad. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 21:09, 8 July 2009 (UTC)<br />

== Synopsis ==<br />
{{Incomplete synopsis}}<br />
The gang arrive in [[Viridian City]]. They find the gym where {{Ash}} is about to battle, just as {{Gary}} shows up bragging about having ten Badges. He enters the gym just for practice. Gary’s battle with the gym leader (also the leader of Team Rocket) [[Giovanni]] is quite easy, winning against Giovanni’s {{p|Golem}} and {{p|Kingler}} with his {{p|Nidoking}} and {{TP|Gary|Arcanine}}. Then, Giovanni decides to bring out his new Pokémon. {{an|Mewtwo}}(in armor), and Gary is defenseless against it, as it brings chaos to the whole gym. Meanwhile, Ash carelessly flings {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} into the air, and it lands in Team Rocket’s lap. Jessie and James struggle to capture it, and they eventually present it to Giovanni only to find Giovanni only wants rare and powerful Pokémon and Togepi doesn’t fit the bill. Ash and the others search the city for Togepi, but to no avail. They hear Togepi in the gym and open the doors. They find Togepi, as well as an unconcious Gary. Gary is terrified, as he describes this new Pokémon as truly evil.<br />
<br />
Ash goes in to compete to be totally surprised to find the gym masters are Jessie and James, as Giovanni had to leave for an emergency. The battle is intense, as the trainer is electrically shocked as their Pokémon get hurt. The shocks bring Ash to his knees just as he sends out Pidgeotto, who beats Jessie’s Pokémon, shocking her. {{MTR|Meowth}} has a control panel to blow up the opponents’ side of the playing field, but Gary bursts in to stop him. The match finishes and Ash wins. Jessie is completely fried. Then, Togepi decides to play with the explosion controller, and accidentally sends Jessie and James flying. Gary’s cheerleaders do a cheer for Ash. Then, the group continue along. Realizing that Ash doesn’t know where the Pokémon League is, they decide to head back to {{to|Pallet}} to ask [[Professor Oak]] and visit home.<br />

== Trivia ==<br />
[[Image:Mewtwo Analysis.jpg|thumb|Mewtwo's armor causing problems to the Pokédex]]<br />
* Some scenes of this episode are hints to scenes from [[Mewtwo Strikes Back|the first movie]]. These include the battle with Giovanni and Gary.<br />
* Only three of Gary's badges are known: {{DL|Badge|Indigo League|Boulder Badge}}, {{DL|Badge|Indigo League|Cascade Badge}}, and {{DL|Badge|Indigo League|Rainbow Badge}}. It is possible that Gary has also obtained the {{DL|Badge|Indigo League|Volcano Badge}}, but the image isn't clear enough for an accurate identification, and the gym was destroyed before he would have had a chance (in ''[[EP059|Volcanic Panic]]'').<br />
* This marks the first and only time a Gym Leader refuses to give the badge to Ash despite winning the battle fair and square.<br />
* This also marks the first time that Ash won a badge at the first attempt, and only the third time that he won a Gym badge for actually defeating the Gym Leader in a [[Pokémon battle]].<br />
* It's subtly hinted that Mewtwo's armor might have been interfering with the Pokédex's scanning ability. When the Pokédex was saying that the Pokémon was unknown and didn't have any available data, there was static interference on the Pokédex screen as well, which none of the other unidentified Pokémon both prior and after had.<br />
* The episode title is a pun of "{{wp|Battle of the Bulge}}".<br />
* Like in ''[[EP058|Riddle Me This]]'', Pikachu was able to defeat, or at least, injure Rhydon with a {{m|Thunderbolt}} attack despite the {{type|Ground}}'s immunity to {{t|Electric}} moves.<br />
* Mewtwo also appears as a painting on Giovanni's wall.<br />
* This is the first time Giovanni's face is clearly seen, as it has always been in the shadows in previous episodes.<br />
<br />
=== Errors ===<br />
* After [[Gary's Arcanine]] defeats Giovanni's {{p|Kingler}}, a different perspective gives it the size of a {{p|Growlithe}}.<br />

[[Image:Junichi_Masuda.png|right|frame|Junichi Masuda]]<br />
'''Junichi Masuda''' (Japanese: '''増田順一''' ''Masuda Jun'ichi'', born January 12, 1968) is best known as a game director and composer for the [[Pokémon games]].<br />
<br />
He was born in {{wp|Kanagawa}} and serves as a Member and Director of the Board of [[Game Freak]]. He has remained with [[Game Freak]] ever since he joined the company when it was founded in 1989. The first game he worked on was {{wp|Namco}}'s {{wp|Mendel Palace}} in 1990. Before moving onto the Pokémon series, he also worked on [[Nintendo]]'s {{wp|Mario and Wario}} in 1993 and {{wp|Sega}}'s {{wp|Pulseman}} in 1994. 2009 marks his 20th year with [[Game Freak]].<br />
<br />
Junichi Masuda was the first person to compose for a Pokémon game and was the sole composer for the entirety of the [[Generation I]] music. He has composed for every handheld Pokémon game in the standard style to date. He also composed for [[Pokémon Stadium 2]]. Junichi Masuda has also composed for two [[e-Reader]] games, [http://www.mobygames.com/game/machop-at-work Machop at Work] and [http://www.mobygames.com/game/kinglers-day Kingler's Day]. <br />
<br />
Due to his work on the Pokémon games, he has worked on [[Super Smash Bros. Melee]] and [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]. Junichi Masuda's game music has been used in the {{pkmn|anime}}, rearranged by [[Shinji Miyazaki]]. <br />
<br />
In addition to being a composer, Junichi Masuda has also worked in a variety of other capacities. He served as an adviser for {{g|Stadium}}, {{g|Stadium 2}}, {{g|Puzzle Challenge}}, supervised {{g|Channel}} and was also involved with the planning of {{g|Box}}, in addition to being a director of that game. He was involved with game design that contributed to {{g|XD: Gale of Darkness}}, however, he did not directly serve as a designer for that game. He designed [[Hoenn]], and as such he has been credited with original design in the anime since the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. More recently, he was the director of {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}} and {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.<br />
<br />
Junichi Masuda was an original creator of the ''[[The Mastermind of Mirage Pokémon]]'', ''[[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Team Go-Getters out of the Gate!]]'', and ''[[PK16|Pikachu's Island Adventure]]'' [[List of anime specials|anime specials]].<br />
<br />
He has also been involved with many of the Pokémon movies. He composed music for ''[[Mewtwo Strikes Back]]'' and ''[[The Power of One]]'' and contributed sound for ''[[Celebi: Voice of the Forest]]''. In ''[[Pokémon Heroes]]'' he was involved with character staging. He was an original creator of ''[[Jirachi: Wish Maker]]'', ''[[Destiny Deoxys]]'', ''[[Pokémon Ranger and the Temple of the Sea]]'', ''[[The Rise of Darkrai]]'' and ''[[Giratina and the Sky Warrior]]''.<br />
<br />
The character {{ga|Pearl}}'s optional name '''Jun''' is a possible reference to Masuda, as is the character of [[Vincent]] (whose Japanese name is: ''Jun'ichi'') from [[Johto]] in the anime. <br />
<br />
His work has been featured on two CDs&mdash;[[Pokémon Gotta Catch the Sound]], which features music based off {{g|Snap}} and Pokémon Stadium and [http://www.en.game-ost.ru/info.php?id=881 Nintendo DS Pokémon Diamond & Pearl Super Music Collection], which features music from {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.<br />
<br />
Additionally, he runs a [http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir Director's Column] (Japanese) on [[Game Freak]]'s website, with many recent entries [http://www.gamefreak.co.jp/blog/dir_english translated into English]. In it, he has talked about why he has done his work in the Pokémon series the way he has and also has given out news about the games he is working on. It was through this column that the [[Masuda method]], a method of easily obtaining {{shiny2}} Pokémon, was first documented.<br />
<br />
Masuda's favorite Pokémon is {{p|Pichu}}.<br />

<hr />
<div>So did Giratina use any attacks during the movie? I was wondering about that because there was no section for its attacks. --[[User:PsychicRider|<sup style="color:#000000;">'''Psychic'''</sup>]][[User talk:PsychicRider|<sub style="color:#000000;">'''Rider'''</sub>]]'' 02:13, 28 July 2008 (UTC)<br />
:Yes, Giratina use attacks, but I don't now which attacks. If someone knows, please put them here --[[User:Nick.|Nick.]] 04:14, 23 August 2008 (UTC)<br />
::Would it be safe to assume that Giratina used Shadow Force, seeing as just about every other Legendary Pokemon that appeared in a movie has used its signature move (I'm pretty sure only Jirachi, Latios and Latias haven't used their signature moves, and the REAL Ho-oh has never appeared in a movie)? [[User:Diachronos|Diachronos]] 16:40, 25 September 2008 (UTC)<br />
:::We see a REAL Ho-Oh in The Rise of Darkrai, and if Giratina uses it in a trailer... well it should be here. --[[User:Nick.|Nick.]] 16:46, 25 September 2008 (UTC)<br />
::::I've seen ''Rise of Darkrai'', Nick, and the only Legendaries in that movie are Darkrai, Dialga, and Palkia. Look at the page for that movie; Ho-oh isn't mentioned anywhere. The closest there's ever been to a Ho-oh in a movie is when the Mew from ''Lucario and the Mystery of Mew'' Transformed into one. [[User:Diachronos|Diachronos]] 16:52, 25 September 2008 (UTC)<br />
:::::In the begining, we can see a real Ho-Oh (after the other legendaries). It is not featured in the movie, but it was a REAL Ho-Oh --[[User:Nick.|Nick.]] 03:53, 1 October 2008 (UTC)<br />
::::::Oh, I forgot the opening for the movies usually show Legendaries. I was only thinking of the plot of the movie. [[User:Diachronos|Diachronos]] 17:05, 7 October 2008 (UTC)<br />
:::::::I don't know ''all'' of Giratina's used moves, but I saw some trailers on YouTube, and I believe I saw the Renegade Pokémon attack Dialga with {{m|Aura Sphere}}. <span style="background:#000000;">[[User:SharKing|<span style="color:#5218FA;">'''Shar'''</span>]]</span><span style="background:#5218FA;"><span style="color:#FFFF00;">'''K'''</span></span><span style="background:#000000;">[[User Talk:SharKing|<span style="color:#FFFF00;">'''ing'''</span>]]</span><br />
<br />
== Aura Sphere? ==<br />
<br />
I've watched the episode earlier, but I think Giratina did not used Aura Sphere in the movie. I mean, it can't use five moves in a movie (unless the writers intended to). The blue fiery-thing is Will-O-Wisp (which could have been mistaken as Aura Sphere). --'''[[User:Kevzo8|<span style="color:#A2958D">Ke</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Kevzo8|<span style="color:#B8B8D0">vz</span>]][[User_talk:Kevzo8|<span style="color:#705898">o8</span>]]''' 09:21, 2 January 2009 (UTC)<br />

<br />
== movie 12 ==<br />
in the trailer, does giratina use will-o-wisp or aura sphere? i thought it was shadow force, but i look closely and saw a ball-like attack come out of giratina's mouth.<small>- ''unsigned comment from {{u|Vik0z0z}} ([[User talk:Vik0z0z|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Vik0z0z|contribs]]){{ #if: | &#32;{{{2}}} |}}''</small><br />
<br />
== Red Fireball? ==<br />
<br />
What about the red fireball Giratina and Girazera use? It's certainly not Wil-o-wisp...[[User:Nintendofan146B|Nintendofan146B]] 01:44, 2 March 2009 (UTC)<br />
:I don't know what Girazera is, but I believe that the red fireball you were referring to was {{m|Draco Meteor}}. After all, we've seen it in the anime as used by {{p|Gabite}}, showing only one meteor. However, others say that it is not, since {{an|Dialga}}'s Draco Meteor which shows meteor shower.

== Synopsis ==<br />
{{Incomplete synopsis}}<br />
The gang has arrived in [[Viridian City]]. They found the gym where {{Ash}} was about to battle, just as {{Gary}} showed up bragging about having ten Badges. He entered the gym just for practice. Gary’s battle with the gym leader (also the leader of Team Rocket) [[Giovanni]] was quite easy, winning against Giovanni’s {{p|Golem}} and {{p|Kingler}} with his {{p|Nidoking}} and {{TP|Gary|Arcanine}}. Then, Giovanni decided to bring out his new Pokémon. {{an|Mewtwo}}(in armor), and Gary was defenseless against it, as it brought chaos to the whole gym. Meanwhile, Ash carelessly flung {{TP|Misty|Togepi}} into the air, and it landed in Team Rocket’s lap. Jessie and James struggled to capture it, and they eventually presented it to Giovanni only to find Giovanni only wanted rare and powerful Pokémon and Togepi didn't fit the bill. Ash and the others searched the city for Togepi, but to no avail. They heard Togepi in the gym and opened the doors. They found Togepi, as well as an unconcious Gary. Gary was terrified, as he described this new Pokémon as truly evil.<br />
<br />
Ash went in to compete to be totally surprised to find the gym masters were Jessie and James, as Giovanni had to leave for an emergency. The battle was intense, as the trainer was electrically shocked as their Pokémon got hurt. The shocks brought Ash to his knees just as he seng out Pidgeotto, who beat Jessie’s Pokémon, shocking her. {{MTR|Meowth}} hac a control panel to blow up the opponents’ side of the playing field, but Gary burst in to stop him. The match finished and Ash won. Jessie was completely fried. Then, Togepi decided to play with the explosion controller, and accidentally sent Jessie and James flying. Gary’s cheerleaders did a cheer for Ash. Then, the group continues along. Realizing that Ash didn’t know where the Pokémon League is, they decided to head back to {{to|Pallet}} to ask [[Professor Oak]] and visit home.<br />

== Trivia ==<br />
[[Image:Mewtwo Analysis.jpg|thumb|Mewtwo's armor causing problems to the Pokédex]]<br />
* Some scenes of this episode are hints to scenes from [[Mewtwo Strikes Back|the first movie]]. These include the battle with Giovanni and Gary.<br />
* Only three of Gary's badges are known: {{DL|Badge|Indigo League|Boulder Badge}}, {{DL|Badge|Indigo League|Cascade Badge}}, and {{DL|Badge|Indigo League|Rainbow Badge}}. It is possible that Gary has also obtained the {{DL|Badge|Indigo League|Volcano Badge}}, but the image isn't clear enough for an accurate identification, and the gym was destroyed before he would have had a chance (in ''[[EP059|Volcanic Panic]]'').<br />
* This marks the first and only time a Gym Leader refuses to give the badge to Ash despite winning the battle fair and square.<br />
* This also marks the first time that Ash won a badge at the first attempt, and only the third time that he won a Gym badge for actually defeating the Gym Leader in a [[Pokémon battle]].<br />
* It's subtly hinted that Mewtwo's armor might have been interfering with the Pokédex's scanning ability. When the Pokédex was saying that the Pokémon was unknown and didn't have any available data, there was static interference on the Pokédex screen as well, which none of the other unidentified Pokémon both prior and after had.<br />
* The episode title is a pun of "{{wp|Battle of the Bulge}}".<br />
* Like in ''[[EP058|Riddle Me This]]'', Pikachu was able to defeat, or at least, injure Rhydon with a {{m|Thunderbolt}} attack despite the {{type|Ground}}'s immunity to {{t|Electric}} moves.<br />
* Mewtwo also appears as a painting on Giovanni's wall.<br />
* This is the first time Giovanni's face is clearly seen, as it has always been in the shadows in previous episodes.<br />
<br />
=== Errors ===<br />
* After [[Gary's Arcanine]] defeats Giovanni's {{p|Kingler}}, a different perspective gives it the size of a {{p|Growlithe}}.<br />

==Welcome==<br />
Welcome to [[Bulbapedia]], MisterE13!<br />
<br />
As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:<br />
*For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].<br />
*Read over the {{bp|style primer}} before making your edits. It is a basic outline of Bulbapedia style. For a more in-depth set of rules, see the {{bp|manual of style}}.<br />
*Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.<br />
*The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either '''130''' or '''0233''' on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.<br />
*The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B'''. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.<br />
*The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.<br />
*On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).<br />
*The use of {{bp|link templates}} is official policy.<br />
*If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.<br />
*A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]]. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found {{cat|stubs|here}}, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found {{cat|articles needing improvement|here}}.<br />
*For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as [[Brock's Happiny]] being held in his arms).<br />
*Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and [[Bulbanews]] have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.<br />
*If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:MisterE13/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for ''actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations''. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.<br />
*Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.<br />
*There are certain restrictions on the content and amount of userspace content a user is allowed. For details, see the {{bp|Userspace policy}}<br />
*Unless prior permission is given, no user is permitted to edit another user's page. Furthermore, edits to other users' pages are permitted only if there are problems that spread to other parts of Bulbapedia, such as broken links that appear on the wanted pages, switching out duplicate images that appear on the Archives, etc.<br />
*Fan fictions, missions, riddles, games, and anything else deemed not suitable for the wiki will not be allowed. If you would like to add something, but do not know if it is acceptable, ask an administrator.<br />
*A list of administrators that you can contact in case of a problem can be found [[Special:Listusers/sysop|here]].<br />

:well, you see, we already have a special Arceus table. it actually changes the picture every time you look at it, so, we dont really need it. if you want to keep the table for yourself, ill re-create the table and you can copy the code, and ill delete it again. though, i dont see the point in that. also, you dont have to go to my page to respond, you can do it here. it makes it easier to understand the conversation. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">MAG</span>]][[User:MAGNEDETH#Interesting Stuff|<span style="color:#696969;">NE</span>]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">DETH</span>]]''' 03:15, 1 November 2008 (UTC)<br />
::I wasn't sure that you would be monitering my page as much as yours. I just thought it would be good to be able to find all the Arceus sprites at the same place without having to constantly refresh the page (the [[Form differences]] page only has the front sprites). But if you still think the template is a bad idea, sure do the re-creation thing and I'll move it to the "User:" namespace. I've got to go though now so I'll move it in the morning. By the way how was it for a first template?--[[User:MisterE13|MisterE13]] 03:27, 1 November 2008<br />

<br />
[[Image:Remoraid-Cropped.jpg]]--->[[Image:Remoraid.png]] Here's the transparency of the sprite you wanted. For the record, that was officially the worst sprite EVER... the background had about 70 different shades of black (which ruins my usual perfectionist way of spriting with a Tolerance value of 0), and not a single one was actually black (none were 0,0,0)! I hope there wasn't any kind of outer border I missed; in any case it would be impossible for anyone to tell.

Hi. It seems that you have made 3 edits to your userpage today. In case you didn't know, Bulbapedia has a {{bp|userspace policy}} that asks that users only edit their userpages 3 times a day at most. Since you have reached the 3 edit limit for today, please wait until tomorrow to make any more edits to your userpage. As a recommendation, you can use the "Show preview" button to allow you to see how your page is coming along without making too many edits. Thank you, --[[wp:Santa Claus|<span style="color:#09FF00;">'''☆'''</span>]][[User:CoolPikachu!|<span style="color:#FF0022;">'''Cool'''</span>]][[User talk:CoolPikachu!|<span style="color:#09FF00;">'''ピカチュウ!'''</span>]] 03:10, 2 December 2008 (UTC)<br />
:I apologize to all of Bulbapedia for momentarily forgetting the edit limit and editing once more to erase an extra break between two tables (kinda' funny how insignificant that last edit was eh?).<br />

I'm really sorry about not answering you before, but I went on vacations and I had no computers near. Well: Unown really has different forms in Trozei!, but I don't think that Spinda and Catsform also have different forms. I can't say anything about Deoxys because I haven't seen one on my game yet.

<br><br />
==Welcome==<br />
Welcome to [[Bulbapedia]], MisterE13!<br />
<br />
As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:<br />
*For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].<br />
*Read over the {{bp|style primer}} before making your edits. It is a basic outline of Bulbapedia style. For a more in-depth set of rules, see the {{bp|manual of style}}.<br />
*Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.<br />
*The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either '''130''' or '''0233''' on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.<br />
*The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B'''. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.<br />
*The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.<br />
*On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).<br />
*The use of {{bp|link templates}} is official policy.<br />
*If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.<br />
*A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]]. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found {{cat|stubs|here}}, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found {{cat|articles needing improvement|here}}.<br />
*For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as [[Brock's Happiny]] being held in his arms).<br />
*Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and [[Bulbanews]] have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.<br />
*If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:MisterE13/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for ''actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations''. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.<br />
*Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.<br />
*There are certain restrictions on the content and amount of userspace content a user is allowed. For details, see the {{bp|Userspace policy}}<br />
*Unless prior permission is given, no user is permitted to edit another user's page. Furthermore, edits to other users' pages are permitted only if there are problems that spread to other parts of Bulbapedia, such as broken links that appear on the wanted pages, switching out duplicate images that appear on the Archives, etc.<br />
*Fan fictions, missions, riddles, games, and anything else deemed not suitable for the wiki will not be allowed. If you would like to add something, but do not know if it is acceptable, ask an administrator.<br />
*A list of administrators that you can contact in case of a problem can be found [[Special:Listusers/sysop|here]].<br />
<br />

:well, you see, we already have a special Arceus table. it actually changes the picture every time you look at it, so, we dont really need it. if you want to keep the table for yourself, ill re-create the table and you can copy the code, and ill delete it again. though, i dont see the point in that. also, you dont have to go to my page to respond, you can do it here. it makes it easier to understand the conversation. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">MAG</span>]][[User:MAGNEDETH#Interesting Stuff|<span style="color:#696969;">NE</span>]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">DETH</span>]]''' 03:15, 1 November 2008 (UTC)<br />
::I wasn't sure that you would be monitering my page as much as yours. I just thought it would be good to be able to find all the Arceus sprites at the same place without having to constantly refresh the page (the [[Form differences]] page only has the front sprites). But if you still think the template is a bad idea, sure do the re-creation thing and I'll move it to the "User:" namespace. I've got to go though now so I'll move it in the morning. By the way how was it for a first template?--[[User:MisterE13|MisterE13]] 03:27, 1 November 2008<br />
:::im an admin, i see everything....but anyway, i dont see much need other than the fronts. if someone wants to see the Steel-type back sprite, all they have to do is go to the Archives. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">MAG</span>]][[User:MAGNEDETH#Interesting Stuff|<span style="color:#696969;">NE</span>]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">DETH</span>]]''' 03:30, 1 November 2008 (UTC)<br />

<br />
[[Image:Remoraid-Cropped.jpg]]--->[[Image:Remoraid.png]] Here's the transparency of the sprite you wanted. For the record, that was officially the worst sprite EVER... the background had about 70 different shades of black (which ruins my usual perfectionist way of spriting with a Tolerance value of 0), and not a single one was actually black (none were 0,0,0)! I hope there wasn't any kind of outer border I missed; in any case it would be impossible for anyone to tell.

==Userspace edits==<br />
Hi. It seems that you have made 3 edits to your userpage today. In case you didn't know, Bulbapedia has a {{bp|userspace policy}} that asks that users only edit their userpages 3 times a day at most. Since you have reached the 3 edit limit for today, please wait until tomorrow to make any more edits to your userpage. As a recommendation, you can use the "Show preview" button to allow you to see how your page is coming along without making too many edits. Thank you, --[[wp:Santa Claus|<span style="color:#09FF00;">'''☆'''</span>]][[User:CoolPikachu!|<span style="color:#FF0022;">'''Cool'''</span>]][[User talk:CoolPikachu!|<span style="color:#09FF00;">'''ピカチュウ!'''</span>]] 03:10, 2 December 2008 (UTC)<br />

== Re: Pokémon Trozei! ==<br />
I'm really sorry about not answering you before, but I went on vacations and I had no computers near. Well: Unown really has different forms in Trozei!, but I don't think that Spinda and Catsform also have different forms. I can't say anything about Deoxys because I haven't seen one on my game yet.

A '''Pokémon Center''' (Japanese: '''ポケモンセンター''' ''Pokémon Center'', abbreviated '''Pokécenter''') is a type of building that provide regulatory services for [[Pokémon Trainer]]s. Pokémon Centers are found in most towns and cities of the [[Pokémon world]], every major city or town holds a Pokémon Center. Pokémon Centers can be found outside towns, sometimes next to large forests or caves. Pokémon Centers are built where many Trainers gather and the area becomes popular. This is to accommodate those Trainers in need and serve as a resting spot. The most common service the Pokémon Center offers is healing [[Pokémon]] free of charge. They also serve as gathering places for Trainers.<br />
<br />
{{m|Fly}} and {{m|Teleport}} always bring the player to the door of the Pokémon Center of a given town if one is present.<br />
<br />
==In the games==<br />
In the [[Pokémon games]], Pokémon Centers are important buildings found in most towns and cities, sometimes even on [[route]]s. Pokémon Centers are essential to Trainers as they provide many facilities and host most game mechanics. Non-player character Trainers and their own Pokémon are often found hanging around in Centers, offering general advice and information on the events in the town or area it is situated in. Though the setup of the Centers has varied slightly throughout each generation, all Pokémon Centers have these functions:<br />
<br />
* A {{ga|nurse}} heals all party Pokémon in a matter of seconds. This service heals all status conditions, recharges [[HP]] and {{PP}} of all [[party]] Pokémon, free of charge. The nurse is located at the main counter just as the player enters the Pokémon Center.<br />
* Pokémon Centers also host the Cable Club and the Union Room, which facilitates multiplayer gameplay. Originally, linked players could only battle and trade one another, but in later generations, players can [[mixing records|mix records]] and [[Wi-Fi Plaza|play games]] together. <br />
* Trainers also have access to a [[PC]] so that they can change out their [[party]]. Players are able to deposit and withdraw Pokémon, along with ability to store and withdraw items and display their [[Hall of Fame]] details.<br />
* In Generations I-III, saving the game inside a Pokémon Center is required to facilitate linking with console games such as Pokémon Stadium and Colosseum.<br />
<br />
===Generation I===<br />
[[Image:Pkmncenter.png|thumb|right|A Pokémon Center in {{game|Red and Blue|s}}]]<br />
In Generation I, a Pokémon Center consisted of two counters on a single floor. The counter on the left has a {{ga|nurse}} that will heal the player's Pokémon. The counter on the right contains the Cable Club, which allows players to link with each other. Talking to the women at the desk will allow the player to enter the Cable Club. Furthest to the right is the [[PC]] to deposit and withdraw Pokémon or items. Generation I also includes one of the few examples of a Pokémon Center that isn't in a town, which is the Pokémon Center in [[Route 10]] outside the entrance to the [[Rock Tunnel]]. Future generations employ rest houses that only offer healing services in areas similar to that.<br />
<br />
====Cable Club====<br />
The original link-up place was at the far end of the Pokémon Center in [[Generation I]] [[Kanto]]. Players can link together to simply battle each other in a one-on-one fight and trade Pokémon with each other. Two players linked by a first generation {{wp|Game Link Cable}} can enter the cable club. Pokémon Yellow featured an extended version of the Cable Club with the option to choose special battle rules or cups.<br />
<br />
===Generation II===<br />
[[Image:Gscpokecenter.PNG|thumb|right|A Pokémon Center in {{game|Gold and Silver|s}}]]<br />
In Generation II, to accommodate greater linkup functionality, the Pokémon Centers of both [[Kanto]] and [[Johto]] expanded to two floors, making it an introduction to Pokémon Centers. On the first floor remained the counter where the nurse would heal Pokémon, as well as a PC. While on the second floor the Cable Club resided.<br />
<br />
====Cable Club====<br />
Located upstairs in Pokémon Centers throughout [[Johto]] and [[Kanto]], this Cable Club consisted of three rooms. The Cable Club Trade Center facilitated trading, the Cable Club Colosseum allowed battling, and the Cable Club [[Time Capsule]] provided a way to trade Pokémon with the [[Generation I]] games. In order to rectify the lack of a female trainer sprite in the {{2v2|Gold|Silver}}, before a {{ga|Kris|female player}} of {{game|Crystal}} can enter the Cable Club when linked to any game besides another Crystal version, she must have her clothes changed to those of a {{ga|Gold|male player}}. Two players can enter the Cable Club with a first generation {{wp|Game Link Cable}}.<br />
<br />
====Johto Mobile Center====<br />
Only in the Japanese Crystal version, the Pokémon Communication Center in [[Goldenrod City]]. Added was the ability to battle over mobile phones upstairs, and two new items downstairs: Pokémon News, a news machine which aggregated news about Trainer accomplishments and Trade Corner, which let a Trainer place a Pokémon up for trade. This process was probably a prototype for the [[GTS]].<br />
<br />
===Generation III===<br />
[[File:FRLGCenterInside.png|thumb|right|A Pokémon Center in {{game|FireRed and LeafGreen|s}}]]<br />
Pokémon Centers during Generation III remained in a two-floor setup, similar to the way they were in Generation II. The only difference is that the stairs to the second floor are larger and more noticeable, taking the shape of an escalator. <br />

{{sign|E|footer}}<br />
====Cable Club====<br />
Similar to the Cable Club in Johto, the [[Hoenn]] Cable Club's Pokémon Center has a Cable Club Colosseum and a Cable Club Trade Center. Now four players can link with a third generation {{wp|Game Link Cable}} to battle in a [[double battle]]. A new feature was added to the Cable Club called the Cable Club Record Center, which allows two to four trainers to swap data. Similar to the Pokémon News in Crystal version, swapped trainer data shows up on [[television]] shows on televisions found all across Hoenn. Also, trainers' [[secret base]]s are copied over in the record mixing.<br />
<br />
====Wireless Club====<br />
The [[Generation III]] Kanto and {{v2|Emerald}} version Hoenn have a Wireless Club. The Wireless Club meets in the [[Union Room]], where up to 40 trainers may (in groups of five) talk and battle, as well as trade via a trading board similar to the Crystal version Trade Corner. The Cable Club's room has the standard Trade Center and Colosseum. Pokémon Emerald version's Cable Club also has the Record Center.<br />
<br />
===Generation IV===<br />
[[Image:Dppokecenter.PNG|thumb|right|A Pokémon Center in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}]]<br />
In Generation IV, Pokémon Centers introduce a basement floor, utilizing Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection. Opposite the second floor escalator, another escalator downstairs to the basement appears. While the second floor retains the same functionality that it did during Generation III with four player on the DS's wireless connection, the basement floor is where players can link up with others around the world using {{wp|Nintendo Wi-Fi Connection}}. The first floor, as always, is where a player can heal their Pokémon and a [[PC]]. As of {{game|Platinum}} players can also challenge a Trainer or Trainers inside some Pokémon Centers.<br />

====Wireless Club====<br />
In [[Generation IV]], Sinnoh has a wireless club just like [[Kanto]] and [[Hoenn]], but with a lack of a Record Center. This region though has a Wi-Fi club downstairs, under the Pokémon Center, for people to connect to each other if they are on each other's [[Pal Pad]]. Here they can battle and trade, and they can talk to each other, not with a chat box, but with microphones. <br />
<br />
====Wi-Fi Plaza====<br />
The [[Wi-Fi Plaza]] is an enhancement to the Wi-Fi Club in Pokémon Platinum. It is found downstairs in the Pokémon Center. Players from around the world can enter a "plaza" to make Poffins and play mini-games together via Nintendo Wi-Fi. The player can walk around the plaza and communicate with other players in the plaza. A leap in multiplayer gameplay is introduced, allowing up to twenty players can enter the Wi-Fi Plaza at a time. The player may only spend a certain amount of time at the Wi-Fi Plaza each day.<br />
<br />
==In the anime==<br />
[[Image:CeruleanPokecenter.jpg|thumb|right|The [[Cerulean City]] Pokémon Center as it appears in the anime]][[File:Pokémon Center heal.png|thumb|left|Ash's Pokémon going to be treated|220px]]<br />
In the {{pkmn|anime}}, a [[Nurse Joy]] heads each Pokémon Center. The healing process takes place in real time, unlike in the games. All Pokémon Centers are connected and, in times of crisis, all Pokémon can be [[Pokémon storage system|transferred]] from one to another, as seen in ''[[EP002|Pokémon Emergency!]]''.<br />
<br />
Pokémon Centers are designed for Trainers so they can rest between {{pkmn|training|activities}}. Trainers use Centers as gathering places, so they can share information about Pokémon. They also have access to video phones, PC with trading functions and most offer free food and lodging. Inside a typical Pokémon Center, one can find a front desk, a lobby (sometimes with vending machines), a [[Poké Ball]] room, an Emergency Room with plenty of beds for injured Pokémon, a recovery room, a waiting room, rooms for lodging, and a cafeteria. On the outside, they come in all shapes and sizes, but usually have a rather large ''P'' somewhere.<br />

<br />
==Trivia==<br />
* For ''[[DP004|Dawn of a New Era!]]'', [[Professor Oak's lecture]] is about Pokémon Centers. He writes this [[Pokémon senryū]] about it: ジョーイさん あいたくなったら ポケモンセンター ''Jōi-san aitaku nattara, Pokémon sentā.'' "When I want to meet Nurse Joy, Pokémon Center."<br />
* If a Trainer gets at least four stars on their {{ga|Trainer card}} in [[Generation IV]], the nurse at the Pokémon Center will make special mention of this, and then refer to the player by name upon subsequent visits.<br />
* A man in the [[Resort Area]] describes how Pokémon Centers come to be in an area. When [[Pokémon]] appear, Trainers will also come. When Trainers appear, Pokémon Centers will also come about.<br />
* The Pokémon Center's theme music has remained essentially the same throughout the franchise. It is notably different at [[time|night time]] in [[Generation IV]].<br />

'''Houndoom''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ヘルガー''' ''Hellgar'') is a dual-type {{2t|Dark|Fire}} Pokémon.<br />
<br />
It [[Evolution|evolve]]s from {{p|Houndour}} starting at [[level]] 24.<br />
<br />
==Biology==<br />
===Physiology===<br />
Houndoom has a taller build than its predecessor, {{P|Houndour}}. There are two white bands at each of Houndoom's ankles instead of just one, as well as three bands on it's back instead of two. Houndoom has a long, skinny tail that ends in an arrow-head. It appears to have a collar with a small skull pendant and a pair of curled horns, but no discernible ears.<br />
<br />
====Gender differences====<br />
A female has smaller horns.<br />
<br />
====Special abilities====<br />
Houndoom's abilities are the same as Houndour's, only stronger. As a matter of fact, legends claim that anyone that gets burned by Houndoom's {{t|Fire}} attacks will never be healed and that Houndoom's {{m|howl}}ing was once claimed to be the call of the {{wp|Grim Reaper}}. Its fire comes from toxins burning in its gut, this also gives its fire a foul odor.<br />
<br />
===Behavior===<br />
Houndoom are generally very protective, alert, head strong, intelligent, and very focused. They can be overly aggressive, but only to protect themselves, their young, their territory, or their owner. However, when properly trained, they can be extremely loyal, loving, and caring Pokémon, as well as very good pets.<br />
<br />
===Habitat===<br />

==Trivia==<br />
* Houndoom and {{p|Houndour}} are the only two Pokémon to have {{t|Fire}} as a secondary type.<br />
* No other Pokémon has the same type combination as Houndoom and its pre-evolution. <br />
* Houndoom's {{2v2|Gold|Silver}} sprite shows it being fully colored red. This was corrected in {{v2|Crystal}}.<br />
<br />
===Origin===<br />
Houndoom is similar to a {{wp|Doberman Pinscher|Doberman}}, but may have been inspired by {{wp|Cerberus}} or other legends of hellhounds.<br />
<br />
====Name origin====<br />
Houndoom's name is a combination of ''{{wp|hound}}'' and ''doom''. Its Japanese name is based on ''{{wp|hell}}'', alluding to its fiery nature, and ''gar'', a sound that dogs make.<br />
<br />
==In other languages==<br />
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Hundemon - From ''Hund'' (dog) and ''Dämon'' (demon). <br />
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Demolosse - From ''demon'' and ''molosse'' ({{wp|Molossus (dog)|Molossian hound}}).<br />
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 헬가 ''Helga''<br />
*[[List of Chinese Pokémon names|Chinese]]: 黑魯加<br />

<hr />
<div>==Welcome==<br />
Welcome to [[Bulbapedia]], Alexa9966!<br />
<br />
As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:<br />
*For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].<br />
*Read over the {{bp|style primer}} before making your edits. It is a basic outline of Bulbapedia style. For a more in-depth set of rules, see the {{bp|manual of style}}.<br />
*Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.<br />
*The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either '''130''' or '''0233''' on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.<br />
*The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B'''. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.<br />
*The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.<br />
*On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).<br />
*The use of {{bp|link templates}} is official policy.<br />
*If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.<br />
*A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]]. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found {{cat|stubs|here}}, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found {{cat|articles needing improvement|here}}.<br />
*For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as [[Brock's Happiny]] being held in his arms).<br />
*Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and [[Bulbanews]] have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.<br />
*If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:Alexa9966/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for ''actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations''. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.<br />
*Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.<br />
*All users are allowed to edit the userspace 3 times a day. If you edit more than 3 times, you may be subjected to a warning. If you ignore the warning, you will be given three chances to comply. If you do not comply, your ability to modify the userspace will be revoked for a period of time.<br />
*Unless prior permission is given, no user is permitted to edit another user's page. Furthermore, edits to other users' pages are permitted only if there are problems that spread to other parts of Bulbapedia, such as broken links that appear on the wanted pages, switching out duplicate images that appear on the Archives, etc.<br />
*Fan fictions, missions, riddles, games, and anything else deemed not suitable for the wiki will not be allowed. If you would like to add something, but do not know if it is acceptable, ask an administrator.<br />
*A list of administrators that you can contact in case of a problem can be found [[Special:Listusers/sysop|here]].<br />

Use the preview button when editing pages to make sure you've written everything you want to write, instead of making 5 edits of one page. :) [[User:GlinnMgraw|<span style="color:#0000FF;">Glinn</span>]] [[User_talk:GlinnMgraw|<span style="color:#0000FF;">Mgraw</span>]] 02:51, 16 November 2008 (UTC)<br />

If you have a problem with homosexual ships than you shouldn't involve yourself in editing Shipping pages. You're putting down false information based on your own bias. PalletShipping is way more popular than GymShipping. Go look on FanFiction.net and I bet you will find much more fan fiction on PalletShipping rather than GymShipping (in fact I don't recall ever seeing one). Don't do it again. --[[Tracey Sketchit|<span style="color:#33CC66;">'''ケンジ'''</span>]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#6600CC;">'''の'''</span>]][[User:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#FF00CC;">'''ガール'''</span>]] 21:47, 31 December 2008 (UTC)<br />

I'm sorry, did I not make myself clear?

Pokémon is not spelled "pokemon", it's Pokémon. Remember this, please. [[User:Chocolate|<font color="6D351A">Chocolate</font>]] <small>([[User talk:Chocolate|<font color="6D351A">Chat with Me</font>]])</small> 20:48, 3 January 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
==Hi==<br />
I noticed you have been editing the <code>User:</code> namespace a lot today. You may not be aware of this, but Bulbapedia has a {{Bulbapedia|Userspace policy}} that asks users to only edit their pages four times a day, at most. Instead of making multiple edits, why not use the Preview button (Alt + Shift + P) located right next to the edit button to look at your page and see how it is coming? That way, your page can look great while staying within the required amount of edits. Just wait until tomorrow, ok? Thanks! --[[User:The Dark Fiddler|The Dark Fiddler]] - [[User talk:The Dark Fiddler|Nos hablamos?]] 22:03, 11 January 2009 (UTC)<br />

(Japanese: '''フルバトル！シンジVSサトシ！！-後編-''' ''Full Battle! {{tt|Shinji|Paul}} VS {{tt|Satoshi|Ash}}!! -Part 2-'') is the 132nd episode of the {{series|Diamond & Pearl}}, and the 598th episode of the [[Pokémon anime]]. It first aired in Japan on June 18, 2009<!-- and in the United States on *day*-->.<br />
{{spoilers}}<br />
==Synopsis==<br />
{{Ash}} and [[Paul]] were still in the middle of their full [[battle]], with both having lost one Pokémon and then {{AP|Pikachu}} was facing off against Paul's powerful {{TP|Paul|Magmortar}}. {{an|Dawn}}, who sat on the sidelines with [[Brock]], [[Reggie]] and her {{TP|Dawn|Piplup}} (as well as [[Jessie]], [[James]] and {{MTR}} in disguise manning the scoreboard), looked up Magmortar in her Pokédex. Dawn wondered why Paul didn't counter with a [[ground-type]], but Brock and Reggie suggested that Paul thought that Ash might have countered with {{AP|Buizel}}. <br />
<br />
Ash started things off and commanded Pikachu to use {{m|Quick Attack}}, which successfully connected and knocked Magmortar sideways. However, once Pikachu landed it was immediately surrounded by fire. Dawn couldn't understand how Pikachu was hurt when Magmortar didn't attack, and Brock explained that Magmortar has an [[ability]] called {{a|Flame Body}}, which can [[burn]] an opponent if it makes physical contact, and that was exactly what's happened to Pikachu. Ash asked Pikachu if it wanted to continue and Pikachu, desperate to help defeat Paul, agreed. Ash thanked Pikachu and commanded a {{m|Thunderbolt}}, and Paul responded by ordering a {{m|Flamethrower}}. Magmortar fired the Flamethrower from its massive bazooka-like arms and it connected with Thunderbolt, causing a massive explosion. Ash then ordered Pikachu to try {{m|Volt Tackle}}, and Pikachu headed straight towards Magmortar. Paul commanded Magmortar to use {{m|Rock Tomb}}, and Magmortar started to fire purple energy which turned into rocks when they hit the ground. Pikachu, forced to run straight due to the Volt Tackle, smashed head-first into the rocks which caused Volt Tackle to fail and Pikachu was thrown back where it immediately felt the effects of its burn again. Paul then commanded Magmortar to use {{m|Smog}} and Magmortar released a poisonous cloud towards Pikachu. Ash commanded Pikachu to use the [[Counter Shield]] technique which they developed for the Gym Battle against [[Fantina]] and Pikachu rolled on its back while releasing electricity, which successfully countered the Smog. Reggie was impressed by the move, and Brock explained that Ash developed it as a means to both attack and defend at the same time. Pikachu was then hurt by its burn again, and Paul ordered Magmortar to use Flamethrower. Ash told Pikachu to jump and use {{m|Iron Tail}}. Pikachu jumped out of the way of the Flamethrower and successfully hit Magmortar across the head with Iron Tail but was then once again hurt by the burn. Ash decided to recall Pikachu for some rest.<br />
<br />
Ash decided to use type-advantage against Magmortar, and sent out Buizel and ordered an {{m|Aqua Jet}}. The attack hit dead-on, sending Magmortar reeling back. Ash then followed the successful move up with {{m|Water Pulse}}, however Paul ordered another Rock Tomb, and Magmortar createed a wall of rocks which stopped the Water Pulse in its tracks. Ash was ready for this and ordered Aqua Jet, and Buizel smashed through the rocks only to find Magmortar gone. Ash told Buizel that Magmortar was in the air, and Buizel looked up to see Magmortar release another Smog, which hit Buizel and [[poison]]ed him, which sent him reeling in pain. Magmortar landed and Paul recalled it and sent out {{TP|Paul|Ursaring}}. Ash told Buizel to use {{m|Water Gun}} however Paul ordered a {{m|Hammer Arm}} which successfully countered the attack. Paul then ordered {{m|Bulk Up}} which increased Ursaring's strength. Ash told Buizel to use Aqua Jet. Paul told Ursaring to use {{m|Slash}}, and Ursaring, after standing up to Aqua Jet, hit Buizel with its sharp claws. Ursaring was then told to use {{m|Focus Blast}}, and Ash responded by having Buizel use Counter Shield which caused the Focus Blast to backfire onto Ursaring. Ash then ordered a {{m|SonicBoom}}, and Paul told Ursaring to use Hammer Arm. Ursaring ran through the SonicBoom and landed a direct hit on Buizel, smashing him to the ground. Ash was ready to recall Buizel however the Pokémon, who wanted to win against Ursaring asked to continue and Ash agreed. He told Buizel to use Aqua Jet. That turned out to be a mistake as Ursaring was told to use another Focus Blast and that time it hit dead-on, knocking Buizel out of the battle. Ash was down two Pokémon. Dawn felt very sorry for Buizel, while Brock and Reggie discussed Ash's mistake in keeping Buizel in the battle so long.<br />
<br />
Ash then sent out {{AP|Staraptor}}, and told it to use {{m|Aerial Ace}}. Paul ordered another Hammer Arm, but Staraptor was able to dodge it and scored a clean hit with Aerial Ace. Paul ordered Focus Blast, which hit Staraptor in mid-air however it is still able to battle. Ash told Staraptor to use {{m|Close Combat}}, but Ursaring was told to use Slash which hit Staraptor before it could get to Ursaring with Close Combat. Paul then had Ursaring finish Staraptor off with Hammer Arm and Staraptor was taken out of the match and Ash thanked it for a good battle.<br />
<br />
Paul recalled Ursaring and sent out his {{TP|Paul|Electabuzz}}, and Ash sent out {{AP|Chimchar}}. Ash told Chimchar to use {{m|Flamethrower}}, however Electabuzz was told to use {{m|Protect}} which shielded Electabuzz from the Flamethrower. Paul then had Electabuzz put up a {{m|Light Screen}} and then immediately returned it to its [[Poké Ball]]. While Jessie, James and Meowth complained about the constant switching of Pokémon which meant more work for them, Brock and Reggie noted that the Light Screen will help protect any Pokémon Paul used for a while. Paul then sent out {{TP|Paul|Torterra}}, which confused Ash as Torterra, as a partial [[Grass-type]], has a disadvantage to Chimchar. Ash told Chimchar to use {{m|Flame Wheel}}, however Torterra was ordered to use {{m|Stone Edge}}. Chimchar immediately dodged the Stone Edge by changing the direction of the Flame Wheel, but Torterra had the pointed stones follow. Chimchar was unable to outrun the stones and suffered a hit. Ash had Chimchar use Flamethrower which hit successfully however the Light Screen protected Torterra and therefore the Flamethrower had no impact. Realizing that Chimchar wasn't going to beat Torterra like this he recalled it, making Jessie complain loudly about the extra work that Ash was giving them by switching Pokémon. Ash sent out {{AP|Gliscor}} against Torterra again and ordered {{m|X-Scissor}}, while Torterra was told to use {{m|Frenzy Plant}}. That time, Frenzy Plant scored a hard hit and Gliscor was knocked out instantly. Ash returned Gliscor to its Poké Ball, realizing that he was then in serious trouble as he has only two Pokémon that are already weakened left in the battle while Paul still has five. Pikachu requested to go up against Torterra, and after making sure it was okay to battle, sent it in only for Paul to immediately return Torterra.<br />
<br />
Paul then sent out Ursaring again, and Ash was then very unsure of what to do as he knew that Ursaring was very powerful having already taken out two of his Pokémon. Pikachu had to remind Ash that he had the first move, and Ash ordered Quick Attack while Paul ordered yet another Hammer Arm. Pikachu hit with Quick Attack however Ursaring's Hammer Arm knocked the wind out of Pikachu and sent it flying back however it recovered and Ash ordered Pikachu to use Iron Tail. Paul ordered Ursaring to counter, however Ursaring had been [[paralysis|paralyzed]] by Pikachu's {{a|Static}} and Iron Tail scored a clean hit although Pikachu still took damage from the burn it received from Magmorter earlier. Just then, Ursaring's eyes glowed red and Paul was very pleased about this development while Reggie noted that Ursaring's {{a|Guts}} ability has been activated by its paralysis. Pikachu looked up to see Ursaring glowing red and screaming with rage, having suddenly just gained a ''lot'' of power. Paul commanded Hammer Arm, while Ash told Pikachu to counter which it did by letting out a massive Thunderbolt, however it didn't stop Ursaring and the Hibernation Pokémon grabbed Pikachu with Hammer Arm and sent it flying into [[Lake Acuity]] where after disappearing under the water it let out a final burst of electricity. Ash ran into the lake looking for his partner, while Reggie explained that Guts worked by using the fact Ursaring was suffering from a status condition to give it more power. Dawn and Piplup were very worried about Pikachu, and even Paul cast a glance towards the lake where Ash was looking. Pikachu emerged from the water, seemingly okay, however it then quickly fainted, not only exhausted but injured from Ursaring's attacks. Ash carried Pikachu to the sidelines and promised to get it to a [[Pokémon Center]] after the battle. Ash knew that as he only has Chimchar left while Paul still has five Pokémon able to battle he will now almost certainly lose the match however he is still determined to continue, concerning Pikachu. Ash sent out Chimchar, while Paul left Ursaring in. Ash told Chimchar to use Flame Wheel, but Ursaring knocked it back with Slash. Ash then told Chimchar to use Flamethrower which scored a direct hit, and Ash then had Chimchar use {{m|Dig}}. Ursaring was told to use Hammer Arm however Chimchar emergeed from Dig before Ursaring could pull off the attack and caused even more damage to Ursaring. Chimchar was then told to use Flamethrower which hit Ursaring, sending it flying back, which finally knocked it out. Ash congratulated Chimchar on doing a great job which made the Chimp Pokémon dance with joy. Jessie, James and Meowth cried with joy at seeing Chimchar do so well. <br />
<br />
Ash approached Chimchar and heaped it with well-earned praise and asked if it is ok to continue. Chimchar nodded its head in agreement and then started to glow... as Chimchar has started to evolve! Everyone watched in amazement as Chimchar went through the transformation and evolved into {{p|Monferno}}. Ash was overjoyed over having a new Pokémon, and Dawn looked up Monferno in the Pokédex. Reggie noted how well Ash has raised Chimchar, a Pokémon that Paul once considered to be worthless, and then, as an evolved Monferno had a lot more techniques at its disposal. Monferno demonstrated this by swinging its fists quickly and effortlessly which caused them to glow. Monferno then swung at the ground which sent a gust of wind at Paul, who stood in his spot and still didn't recognize Monferno as the powerful fighter it was. Ash realized that as well as evolving Monferno has also learned {{m|Mach Punch}}, which Monferno confirmed by somersaulting on the spot. <br />
<br />
Paul sent out Electabuzz, which was initially surprised to see Chimchar has evolved but was still ready to battle its former teammate, a sentiment Monferno agreed with. Reggie noted the two are now on equal terms, and Ash commanded Monferno to use Mach Punch. Monferno sped towards Electabuzz and hit it with Mach Punch square in the chest, sending an astounded Electabuzz flying back and smashed into a rock. Paul told Electabuzz to use {{m|Thunder}}, which hit Monferno and paralyzed it. Ash responded to this by having Monferno use Flame Wheel, however Paul had Electabuzz use Protect and Monferno was sent flying into the air. Monferno was told to try Flamethrower and Electabuzz was told to dodge and use {{m|ThunderPunch}}. Monferno was able to dodge it in mid-air, and Ash told it to use Dig. Monferno tunneled underground, and when Electabuzz landed, it suffered a punch in the face. Ash commanded another Flame Wheel, and Electabuzz was told to respond with Thunder which headed straight towards Monferno but Ash had Monferno use Counter Shield and as a result the Thunder was deflected and Flame Wheel scored a direct hit. Reggie was impressed by how Ash was using the momentum to turn the battle around. Another Mach Punch was commanded, but this time Monferno was hit by Electabuzz's Thunder, sending it back towards Ash and was forced to its knees both through the damage and paralysis. Ash told Monferno to use Flamethrower, however it felt the paralysis again and can't launch the attack. Ash was furious that Monferno can't launch the attack, and everyone noted that Ash was acting a lot more like Paul. Just then, Monferno's tail flame started to burn more fiercely. Dawn asked if Monferno has activated {{a|Blaze}}, however Brock and Reggie explained that the increase in Monferno's flame wasn't Blaze but was actually due to its determination to defeat Electabuzz. Ash was delighted that Monferno was so focused on winning and told it to use Mach Punch while Paul commanded his Electabuzz to use ThunderPunch. The two Pokémon headed towards each other, full of fury and both attacks connect at the same time, which caused a massive explosion in the middle of the battlefield. When the smoke cleared, Monferno and Electabuzz were staring each other down and while Electabuzz was very weak, Monferno has taken far more damage and collapsed to the ground, badly injured, to Ash's horror. [[Osabaki]] ruled Monferno as being unable to battle, which meant Paul had won the match and Ash has suffered his worst defeat ever. <br />
<br />
The sun started to set on Lake Acuity, as Paul returnd Electabuzz to its Poké Ball and Ash cradled Monferno in his arms, telling it that it did a great job. Reggie congratulated Paul on his win, and Paul bid farewell to Reggie and Osabaki and left without even acknowledging Ash and his friends. Ash was left holding his badly injured Monferno, with his future in the [[Sinnoh League]] and as a [[Pokémon Trainer]] left in serious doubt...<br />

==So what have I been up to lately?==<br />
Currently, I am working on fixing synopsis tenses. Look {{cat|Episode articles with synopses in the wrong tense|here}} for a list of episodes that need the tenses turned to past tense.<br />
<br />
Also, I've spent a lot of time on the forums as of late.<br />

<div>==Welcome==<br />
Welcome to [[Bulbapedia]], Torngentleman2!<br />
<br />
As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:<br />
* For a basic overview of wiki code, see [[Help:Editing|this page]].<br />
* Read over the {{bp|style primer}} before making your edits. It is a basic outline of Bulbapedia style. For a more in-depth set of rules, see the {{bp|manual of style}}.<br />
* Keep an eye on the {{bp|Messages from the Editor}} on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.<br />
* The word [[Pokémon]] is spelled with a capital '''P''' and an accented '''é'''. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either '''130''' or '''0233''' on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.<br />
* The word [[Poké Ball]] is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital '''B'''. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.<br />
* The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.<br />
* On {{bp|talk page}}s, please {{bp|Signature policy|sign your comments}} with four tildes (<nowiki>~~~~</nowiki>).<br />
* The use of {{bp|link templates}} is official policy.<br />
* If you happen to spot a vandal in the [[Special:Recentchanges|recent changes]] that has not been dealt with, please see {{bp|dealing with vandalism|this page}} for how to deal with it.<br />
* A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at [[Special:Wantedpages|this page]]. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found {{cat|stubs|here}}, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found {{cat|articles needing improvement|here}}.<br />
* For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the {{pkmn|anime}}, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as [[Brock's Happiny]] being held in his arms).<br />
* Image uploading is done on [[Bulbagarden Archives]], a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar.

==Hi==<br />
I noticed you have been editing the <code>User:</code> namespace a lot today. You may not be aware of this, but Bulbapedia has a {{Bulbapedia|Userspace policy}} that asks users to try and minimize the number of userspace edits they make in a short period of time. Instead of making multiple edits, why not use the Preview button (Alt + Shift + P) located right next to the edit button to look at your page and see how it is coming? That way, your page can look great while staying within the required amount of edits. Instead of editing the userspace, as a wiki, we encourage users to edit the mainspace. So, if you edit the mainspace more often, you will be allowed to edit the userspace more. Thanks! --'''<span style="color:#A18DC4">◄</span>[[User:Kevzo8|<span style="color:#98D8D8">Kev</span>]][[User_talk:Kevzo8|<span style="color:#98D8D8">zo8</span>]]<span style="color:#A18DC4">►</span>''' 10:03, 11 April 2009 (UTC)<br />

== Gender. ==<br />
<br />
Please take into account Legendary Pokémon '''do not''' have genders (aside from four, but the Legendaries we're talking about do not). Which means, even in the animé, their gender is "none", not "unknown". Please remember this in the future. [[User:Takoto|<span style="color:#2E0854">~~<b>Takoto</b></span>]] - [[User_talk:Takoto|<span style="color:#F4C2C2">サソデイ]]</span> 20:50, 29 May 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Actually, we had an agreement on this. Games do not always equally anime. In the case of {{jo|Silver}}, it is obvious that Legendaries do have genders in the anime. --[[Tracey Sketchit|<span style="color:#33CC66;">'''ケンジ'''</span>]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#6600CC;">'''の'''</span>]][[User:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#FF00CC;">'''ガール'''</span>]] 21:00, 29 May 2009 (UTC)<br />
::I wouldn't say that just because one Legendary has gender then that suddenly means every Legendary has a gender, for example, Heatran has a gender, but does that mean that Mewtwo, or Palkia, or Deoxys have a gender? Nope. I know games aren't the same as the animé, of course I know that, but I was assuming. Also I didn't actually know about this Silver, t'was probably in a episode I didn't get to watch so yeah. I'd just say Silver is a special case... I mean there's been no other mention of Legendaries having genders in the animé other than that right? Aside from Latias and Latios, Heatran and Cresselia, of course.

:::Well there have been occasions in the anime where there are multiple legendary Pokémon compared to the one that's available in the games. This would include Celebi and Shaymin. Not to mention that there are two different Mew in the anime. The only reason genders weren't given to most legendary Pokémon in the games was so that they would be unable to breed. I doubt it's the same case in the anime. It's best to leave it as Unknown. You should check the other anime Legendary pages. They all say unknown too. --[[Tracey Sketchit|<span style="color:#33CC66;">'''ケンジ'''</span>]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#6600CC;">'''の'''</span>]][[User:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#FF00CC;">'''ガール'''</span>]] 21:30, 29 May 2009 (UTC)<br />
::::Still, just because theres more than one doesn't mean they have a gender. These are Legendary Pokémon, they've been around for hundreds of years (presumably), they could just be immortal, with no need to reproduce, thus no need for genders. I'm not arguing, merely pointing out, I accept that Bulbapedia recognizes them as "Unknown" rather than "None" when it comes to gender.

== Gen I games with color ==<br />
<br />
You know how originally the main ones before Yellow were black and white? The Game Boy Color gave them color, kinda made them look like Yellow. I can play Pokémon games on my computer with an emulator called visual boy advance. I saw that some videos of Red or Blue are obviously on the vba emulator... and some are in black and white and some look like how the Game Boy Color made them. I tried everything to make my Red Version in color when I got it but it remained black and white... so I wondered how those people got color on those Red and Blue versions they played on the vba emulator... so that's it, to make it clear 'cause your answer wasn't really what I was looking for... here: "When playing Red Version on the vba, how do you get color?" If you know the answer, please help.--[[User:Dragonbeastx/The Aura Spot|<font color="blue"><sup>X, PEACE TO</sup></font>]][[User:Dragonbeastx|<font color="yellow">THE DRAGONS AND</font>]][[User talk:Dragonbeastx|<font color="red">THE BEASTS</font>]] 21:05, 19 April 2009 (UTC)<br />
:You don't. VBA emulates a normal Game Boy when playing RB, which gives the games no color. Yellow has a color variance depending on where you are, being lavender in Lavender Town, red on Cinnabar Island... and so on. But not Red and Blue.

...is really getting frustrating. Thanks so much for working so diligently to block them and protect their talk pages. It's really hard because I look through [[Special:RecentChanges]] virtually every second, but with all the new accounts, blocks, and protections, it's hard to find any real content in that page.

:"Hide patrolled edits" hides the logs, but that also hides sysop edits due to the automatic patrol system.<br />
<br />
:Another option is to view edits by namespace. Namespaces can be selected from the drop-down. When viewing edits only from a certain namespace, the logs don't appear. Note that using the "invert selection" checkbox hides the chosen namespace instead of showing it, and that checkbox doesn't hide the logs. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 14:58, 22 May 2009 (UTC)<br />

:Granted, Nintendo would deny it. <br />

:But trust me, if the glitch you're talking about were real, serebii.net would not have put up a whole section detailing how it's fake. Either that or someone would have written a FAQ for {{wp|GameFAQs}} before serebii.net wrote their game mechanics section on Celebi (which, in turn, might not have debunked the alleged "glitch").

== "Shipping:Ikari Shipping" as a redirect ==<br />
<br />
No, trust me. I just did a search of "Ikari Shipping" on our search engine, and when you click the "Shipping" option in the advance search feature, guess which article comes up? Not the "Shipping:Ikari Shipping" redirect, but the "Shipping:IkariShipping" article itself.<br />
<br />
Not to mention, no one is going to ever search "'''Shipping''':Ikari Shipping" if it's their first time here, and once they do find the article, they'll know we do it with no space between "name" and "Shipping", so those redirects are purposeless and dead weight. Delete tag, pls. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 12:45, 15 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

Hey pikablu, I was looking at a couple of pages and realized that all the images link to a non-existant Rick Astley page. Is this some sort of a joke or something? Here are all the pages that link to it (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Rick_Astley_(Pok%C3%A9mon)) I think one of the templates must make the images link to that page.... -[[User:MasterKenobi|MasterKenobi]] 15:52, 17 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

== Gen I games with color ==<br />
<br />
You know how originally the main ones before Yellow were black and white? The Game Boy Color gave them color, kinda made them look like Yellow. I can play Pokémon games on my computer with an emulator called visual boy advance. I saw that some videos of Red or Blue are obviously on the vba emulator... and some are in black and white and some look like how the Game Boy Color made them. I tried everything to make my Red Version in color when I got it but it remained black and white... so I wondered how those people got color on those Red and Blue versions they played on the vba emulator... so that's it, to make it clear 'cause your answer wasn't really what I was looking for... here: "When playing Red Version on the vba, how do you get color?"

:You don't. VBA emulates a normal Game Boy when playing RB, which gives the games no color.

== Celebi Glitch ==<br />
<br />
Name for me ONE reliable source that says that the Celebi Glitch is false! ONE! JUST ONE! And don't even say "Serebii.net" or "Nintendo". Serebii is notorious for hating and not condoning glitches, so of course he's not gonna look too in-depth into a glitch that's almost impossible to activate. As for Nintendo, of course they'd say it's false! Otherwise they'd have everyone looking for Celebi in Ruby and Sapphire as opposed to waiting for their events! So, having excluded those, name me ONE SINGLE STINKING RELIABLE SOURCE. And of course, I'll find a way to discredit that as well. You can't prove the glitch to be false when the evidence that it's real IS SITTING IN MY PC! [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] says: The [[User:Missingno. Master/Celebi Glitch|Celebi Glitch]] is real!<small>[[User talk: Missingno. Master|(talk page)]]</small> 18:33, 14 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Granted, Nintendo would deny it. <br />
<br />
:But trust me, if the glitch you're talking about were real, serebii.net would not have put up a whole section detailing how it's fake. Either that or someone would have written a FAQ for {{wp|GameFAQs}} before serebii.net wrote their game mechanics section on Celebi (which, in turn, might not have debunked the alleged "glitch"). The glitch you're talking about is nothing but a false rumor that came about as a result of the [[Mew glitch]] being proven real. It's never been real. It will never be real.<br />
<br />
:Please, you don't want to turn into another {{u|Darkrai breeder}}. And I don't want you to, either. But if you're continuing to insist a proven-fake glitch is real, you'll probably end up like Darkrai breeder in his fruitless quest to try to get people to believe {{tt|Glatra|A fake Pokémon Darkrai breeder kept trying to get Bulbapedia to believe was real, but instead of providing proof, flamed everyone who doubted Glatra's existence}}'s existience without reliable proof. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 03:54, 15 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

== "Shipping:Ikari Shipping" as a redirect ==<br />
<br />
No, trust me. I just did a search of "Ikari Shipping" on our search engine, and when you click the "Shipping" option in the advance search feature, guess which article comes up? Not the "Shipping:Ikari Shipping" redirect, but the "Shipping:IkariShipping" article itself.<br />
<br />
Not to mention, no one is going to ever search "'''Shipping''':Ikari Shipping" if it's their first time here, and once they do find the article, they'll know we do it with no space between "name" and "Shipping", so those redirects are purposeless and dead weight.

== Gen I games with color ==<br />

You know how originally the main ones before Yellow were black and white? The Game Boy Color gave them color, kinda made them look like Yellow.

I tried everything to make my Red Version in color when I got it but it remained black and white... so I wondered how those people got color on those Red and Blue versions they played on the vba emulator... so that's it, to make it clear 'cause your answer wasn't really what I was looking for... here: "When playing Red Version on the vba, how do you get color?"

...is really getting frustrating. Thanks so much for working so diligently to block them and protect their talk pages. It's really hard because I look through [[Special:RecentChanges]] virtually every second, but with all the new accounts, blocks, and protections, it's hard to find any real content in that page.

:"Hide patrolled edits" hides the logs, but that also hides sysop edits due to the automatic patrol system.<br />
<br />
:Another option is to view edits by namespace. Namespaces can be selected from the drop-down. When viewing edits only from a certain namespace, the logs don't appear. Note that using the "invert selection" checkbox hides the chosen namespace instead of showing it, and that checkbox doesn't hide the logs. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 14:58, 22 May 2009 (UTC)<br />

Serebii (http://www.serebii.net/index2.shtml) just added that the PokéWalk that was revealed on today's Pokémon Sunday episode. Should we make a page or hold off? and if we decide to make a page should we lock it so no user speculation gets in as it is pretty much HeartGold and SoulSilver stuff. -[[User:MasterKenobi|MasterKenobi]] 04:01, 7 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

== Celebi Glitch ==<br />
<br />
Name for me ONE reliable source that says that the Celebi Glitch is false! ONE! JUST ONE! And don't even say "Serebii.net" or "Nintendo". Serebii is notorious for hating and not condoning glitches, so of course he's not gonna look too in-depth into a glitch that's almost impossible to activate. As for Nintendo, of course they'd say it's false! Otherwise they'd have everyone looking for Celebi in Ruby and Sapphire as opposed to waiting for their events! So, having excluded those, name me ONE SINGLE STINKING RELIABLE SOURCE. And of course, I'll find a way to discredit that as well. You can't prove the glitch to be false when the evidence that it's real IS SITTING IN MY PC! [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] says: The [[User:Missingno. Master/Celebi Glitch|Celebi Glitch]] is real!<small>[[User talk: Missingno. Master|(talk page)]]</small> 18:33, 14 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Granted, Nintendo would deny it. <br />
<br />
:But trust me, if the glitch you're talking about were real, serebii.net would not have put up a whole section detailing how it's fake. Either that or someone would have written a FAQ for {{wp|GameFAQs}} before serebii.net wrote their game mechanics section on Celebi (which, in turn, might not have debunked the alleged "glitch"). The glitch you're talking about is nothing but a false rumor that came about as a result of the [[Mew glitch]] being proven real. It's never been real. It will never be real.<br />
<br />
:Please, you don't want to turn into another {{u|Darkrai breeder}}. And I don't want you to, either. But if you're continuing to insist a proven-fake glitch is real, you'll probably end up like Darkrai breeder in his fruitless quest to try to get people to believe {{tt|Glatra|A fake Pokémon Darkrai breeder kept trying to get Bulbapedia to believe was real, but instead of providing proof, flamed everyone who doubted Glatra's existence}}'s existience without reliable proof. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 03:54, 15 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

== "Shipping:Ikari Shipping" as a redirect ==<br />
<br />
No, trust me. I just did a search of "Ikari Shipping" on our search engine, and when you click the "Shipping" option in the advance search feature, guess which article comes up? Not the "Shipping:Ikari Shipping" redirect, but the "Shipping:IkariShipping" article itself.<br />
<br />
Not to mention, no one is going to ever search "'''Shipping''':Ikari Shipping" if it's their first time here, and once they do find the article, they'll know we do it with no space between "name" and "Shipping", so those redirects are purposeless and dead weight.

Hey pikablu, I was looking at a couple of pages and realized that all the images link to a non-existant Rick Astley page. Is this some sort of a joke or something?

== Gen I games with color ==<br />
<br />
You know how originally the main ones before Yellow were black and white? The Game Boy Color gave them color, kinda made them look like Yellow. I can play Pokémon games on my computer with an emulator called visual boy advance. I saw that some videos of Red or Blue are obviously on the vba emulator... and some are in black and white and some look like how the Game Boy Color made them. I tried everything to make my Red Version in color when I got it but it remained black and white... so I wondered how those people got color on those Red and Blue versions they played on the vba emulator... so that's it, to make it clear 'cause your answer wasn't really what I was looking for... here: "When playing Red Version on the vba, how do you get color?"

:"Hide patrolled edits" hides the logs, but that also hides sysop edits due to the automatic patrol system.<br />

:Another option is to view edits by namespace. Namespaces can be selected from the drop-down. When viewing edits only from a certain namespace, the logs don't appear.

== PokéWalk ==<br />
<br />
Serebii (http://www.serebii.net/index2.shtml) just added that the PokéWalk that was revealed on today's Pokémon Sunday episode. Should we make a page or hold off? and if we decide to make a page should we lock it so no user speculation gets in as it is pretty much HeartGold and SoulSilver stuff. -[[User:MasterKenobi|MasterKenobi]] 04:01, 7 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

:I'd say sandbox it for now. If you can prove there's enough information, then we can make it ASAP. If it can be judged there's not enough information, we should probably wait until there is. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 04:04, 7 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
::[[Sandbox]] does that look like enough information? Additionally there is a picture for it that needs to be uploaded and I can't get into the archives. -[[User:MasterKenobi|MasterKenobi]] 04:21, 7 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

:::I'd probably go for a second opinion. In that state, it looks more like a section for the HG/SS article as opposed to something for an article of its own...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 04:23, 7 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

== Celebi Glitch ==<br />
<br />
Name for me ONE reliable source that says that the Celebi Glitch is false! ONE! JUST ONE! And don't even say "Serebii.net" or "Nintendo". Serebii is notorious for hating and not condoning glitches, so of course he's not gonna look too in-depth into a glitch that's almost impossible to activate. As for Nintendo, of course they'd say it's false! Otherwise they'd have everyone looking for Celebi in Ruby and Sapphire as opposed to waiting for their events! So, having excluded those, name me ONE SINGLE STINKING RELIABLE SOURCE. And of course, I'll find a way to discredit that as well. You can't prove the glitch to be false when the evidence that it's real IS SITTING IN MY PC! [[User:Missingno. Master|Missingno. Master]] says: The [[User:Missingno. Master/Celebi Glitch|Celebi Glitch]] is real!<small>[[User talk: Missingno. Master|(talk page)]]</small> 18:33, 14 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
:Granted, Nintendo would deny it. <br />
<br />
:But trust me, if the glitch you're talking about were real, serebii.net would not have put up a whole section detailing how it's fake. Either that or someone would have written a FAQ for {{wp|GameFAQs}} before serebii.net wrote their game mechanics section on Celebi (which, in turn, might not have debunked the alleged "glitch"). The glitch you're talking about is nothing but a false rumor that came about as a result of the [[Mew glitch]] being proven real. It's never been real. It will never be real.<br />
<br />
:Please, you don't want to turn into another {{u|Darkrai breeder}}. And I don't want you to, either. But if you're continuing to insist a proven-fake glitch is real, you'll probably end up like Darkrai breeder in his fruitless quest to try to get people to believe {{tt|Glatra|A fake Pokémon Darkrai breeder kept trying to get Bulbapedia to believe was real, but instead of providing proof, flamed everyone who doubted Glatra's existence}}'s existience without reliable proof. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 03:54, 15 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

== "Shipping:Ikari Shipping" as a redirect ==<br />
<br />
No, trust me. I just did a search of "Ikari Shipping" on our search engine, and when you click the "Shipping" option in the advance search feature, guess which article comes up? Not the "Shipping:Ikari Shipping" redirect, but the "Shipping:IkariShipping" article itself.<br />
<br />
Not to mention, no one is going to ever search "'''Shipping''':Ikari Shipping" if it's their first time here, and once they do find the article, they'll know we do it with no space between "name" and "Shipping", so those redirects are purposeless and dead weight. Delete tag, pls. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 12:45, 15 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Ooo, not to mention, searching "Luck Shipping" the same way doesn't bring up the LuckShipping article, or the "Shipping:" redirect. [[User:ArcToraphim|Luna Tiger]] * [[User talk:ArcToraphim|the Arc Toraph]] 12:53, 15 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Redirects do not show up in the search by default. To allow redirects to show up in the search, you'll have to have the "List redirects" option checked. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 15:25, 15 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:::At the same time, who is going to click "redirect"? No one is going to type up a 'ship to search for and think to include redirect. It's not one would suspect they need to click. Either delete it altogether, or nix the '''Shipping:''' part and then make one for each individual 'ship name...what a chore, what a bother, what's the purpose?

== Joke? ==<br />
<br />
Hey pikablu, I was looking at a couple of pages and realized that all the images link to a non-existant Rick Astley page. Is this some sort of a joke or something? Here are all the pages that link to it (http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Rick_Astley_(Pok%C3%A9mon)) I think one of the templates must make the images link to that page.... -[[User:MasterKenobi|MasterKenobi]] 15:52, 17 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
:Nevermind, I found this quote from Kogoro,"Because it lets us know what pages are missing their fixed links, using "Special:WhatLinksHere". I like how every answer turns up ''after'' I ask the question... -[[User:MasterKenobi|MasterKenobi]] 15:55, 17 June 2009 (UTC)<br />
<br />
::Well, just for the record, it's [[Template:MS]], and it's {{u|TTEchidna|the EoC's}} idea of a joke. There's a project going on to link the MS sprites to the Pokémon depicted on them, and the chosen default was "Rick Astley". If you want to help relink the MS templates, try looking [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Rick Astley (Pokémon)|here]] and [[Special:WhatLinksHere/Png (Pokémon)|here]] (the latter link is a result of an older, odder style where the first 400 MS images were in GIF but 401-493 were in PNG) --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 15:59, 17 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

Hi, could you possibly add Arceus to the Movie Characters template? or do you just want to do all the characters for the 12th movie at once? -[[User:MasterKenobi|MasterKenobi]] 18:16, 18 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

:We'll probably be handling all of the movie characters around the time the movie comes out. Besides, if the Arceus article is protected from being created, there wouldn't be much reason to add it yet...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 18:19, 18 June 2009 (UTC)<br />

<div>The '''Cut Glitch''' is a [[glitch]] in Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|II}} that allows the {{player}} to get stuck on top of a {{m|Cut|cuttable}} tree. To perform the glitch, the player must have the [[Gym Badge]] allowing the use of Cut, and the cut HM or a [[Pokémon]] that knows cut. The steps are as follows:<br />
<br />
* Cut down a cuttable tree.<br />
* Stand on the spot where the tree was.<br />
* Save the game.<br />
* Turn off the power.<br />
* Load the game.<br />
* If done in the right generation, the player should be standing on top of a tree.<br />
<br />
This glitch may cause the player to be permanently stuck on the tree, requiring that a new game be started.<br />
