due to an overwhelming vote of 3 - 27 - 5 - 5, Kogoro's Welcome template has been decided as the new official welcome template. and now i presume some of you will complain a bit, and by all means, go right ahead. just be aware that at least 27 people won't agree with you. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|MAG]][[User:MAGNEDETH#Interesting Stuff|NE]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|DETH]]''' 23:09, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

:Now that this template is taken into use, I think we should think the problem arising from the fact that somebody may like to hide the box. How do we ensure that this can easily be done by that user, or are we going to force him/her to display this green splash on the top of his/her talk page? '''UltimateSephiroth''' ([[User:UltimateSephiroth|about me]] · [[User talk:UltimateSephiroth|chat]] · [[Special:Contributions/UltimateSephiroth|edits]]) 23:13, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

::One could add <code>class="expandable"</code> to the table to minimize it. — [[User:Laoris|Laoris]] ([[User_Talk:Laoris|Blah]]) 23:47, 4 December 2008 (UTC)

:::That's true. However, we should make that very easy so I think the template could have some kind of instructions to do that for the new users. Or then they can just ask. '''UltimateSephiroth''' ([[User:UltimateSephiroth|about me]] · [[User talk:UltimateSephiroth|chat]] · [[Special:Contributions/UltimateSephiroth|edits]]) 00:10, 5 December 2008 (UTC)

::::The only problem in that is that it makes it easy for a newbie to just click and hide it, then ignore it completely. Having it right out there constantly should definitely get them to notice it, and hopefully they will bother to check it out. - [[User:Kogoro|'''<sc>Kogoro</sc>''']] '''|''' [[User talk:Kogoro|'''<sc>Talk to me</sc>''']] -

== Template needs the CoC ==

Mention of Bulbaquette somewhere would be good, seeing as it's now official. Of course, this will throw everything majorly off balance... :/ — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 07:40, 17 January 2009 (UTC)

== An unimportant edit request ==

Move the noinclude tag to the end of the template, to prevent huge whitespace underneath when substing the template and adding additional comments underneath. Please. — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 07:03, 19 February 2009 (UTC)

== I know no one ever reads their green blob, but.... ==

Could be productive to mention the userspace thing in brief without making them click the link. No one ever clicks the links, and it is more likely that they read the blurb below. I'm thinking a sentence like "if you want to create a userpage, feel free, but don't edit too many times or you may be blocked from editing it." ... or stuff. Anyhoo..... — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 09:58, 28 February 2009 (UTC)

Could we do something like this:

It tells them about their userpage so that 1.they know where they can express themselves so that they don't do it on other pages e.g: No "Oooh cute" on Clefairy's page. 2.

:No one has to make a userpage if they don't want to. If you're searching for someone, search for their talk page, as every un-permablocked user has a talk page. The problem is that some people edit their userpage more than anything else. Two months down the track, this really isn't a concern any more, although minimalistic editing is encouraged. — [[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|THE TROM]] — 03:13, 26 April 2009 (UTC)
::I'm amused that despite the largest implication of this welcome template lying on how the new users receive it, most of the decisions put forth into the template are put forth by more or less seasoned wiki-ers that simply cannot view the template from a newbie point of view, and yet you fail to recognize the significance of the idea (or any!) put forth by this fairly new user.

Bulbapedia:Administrators is no longer a complete list of users with powers. May I suggest a page called "Bulbapedia:List of staff members"?

== How to round borders in other browsers ==

Hey, guys! I notice you only have the -moz-border-radius coding on there. Well, I got a secret for ya! You may want to use this on other templates/pages, too. There's other border-rounding HTML codes for various browsers. Here's a list:
*-moz-border-radius
*border-radius
*webkit-border-radius
*khtml-border-radius
Those four are the only ones I know, at the moment. I haven't found any others. I'll make it into a template like we did at WK so that you can use it to your heart's content! Anyways, use those like you would with -moz-border-radius code. Good day![[User:ZW Neo|__Neo]][[User talk:ZW Neo|(T)]][[zw:Main Page|(Home)]] 01:37, 16 May 2010 (UTC)

== "Anime locations in need of images" Category! ==

Hey TT, I have a question related to "''{{cat|Anime locations in need of images}}''". How can we provide the images/headers of those anime locations which were never even shown in the anime? [[Crimson City]], [[Frodomar City]], [[Gerbera Town]] and [[Sage Town]] are included in the category. If there header/image is missing and if they were shown in the anime then it's fine to include them in the category but how can we ever find the images of these articles if they were just mentioned in the anime (not shown). In that case, these articles will remain in that condition '''+''' in that category forever and our site will remain incomplete. I am saying that we should remove those articles from that category and only include those articles which were shown in the anime literally and we don't have an image of those.

==Sinjoh Return/Ethan==
A couple things...

Regarding your commentary in the video about returning to Sinjoh Ruins, an “ordinary person” actually can get and use imagery from NASA and the Space Telescope Science Institute( Hubble stuff). It’s mostly public domain. Per some U.S. law( possibly something in the constitution?) many/most works of the United States government can’t be copyrighted, and can be used freely, even for commercial applications as long as A) they don’t contain identifiable images of a person or another copyrighted work and B) the usage does not imply the endorsement of the product by any U.S. government agency.

Also, if you have a moment, could you take a look at the [[Talk:Ethan (game)#Info Box Color|talk page]] where we are discussing infobox colors for <strike>Gold</strike>“Ethan”? I think there are several legitimate reasons for leaving them gold, but there are credible( though not terribly compelling) arguments for changing them to soulsilver color, which was done recently. --[[User:LaprasBoi|LaprasBoi]] 02:30, 7 April 2010 (UTC)

== Performance suggestion ==

I'm noticing that you're using template substitution for version (Gold/Silver/Crystal/Platinum etc) coloring (eg. [[Template:Platinum color]]). Wouldn't it be significantly less server-intensive to simply replace these with styles described in the wiki's CSS?
:Doubtful. Considering Gold and Silver, along with Red, Green, Blue, and Yellow are already predefined by HTML, not a good idea. The color templates are one-third of color''scheme'' templates, with {{template|red color}} combining with {{template|red color light}} and {{template|red color dark}} to make a Red Version colorscheme. And the server's only strained if we ever decide to edit those templates... which is not often once they're in place.

::Any online series calling itself "Pokémon: The Abridged Series" or something similar takes the content of the [[Pokémon anime]], trims the video down, and applies a humorous {{wp|fandub}}. The concept as we know it began with "{{wp|Yu-Gi-Oh}} The Abridged Series" by LittleKuriboh, with a lot of attempts to emulate the concept with different anime series having popped up with varying degrees of success.

::There are way too many "abridged series" based off of Pokémon, it's difficult to follow any particular one, especially since very few have even come to at least 3% of the success of the original Yu-Gi-Oh Abridged (many attempts have even died out after only a few "episodes"). The abridged series one person follows may not be the abridged series another user follows, and still different from the abridged series a third person follows. Because of this, none of them are notable enough for an article, as if Bulbapedia followed one abridged series but someone came here looking for a different abridged series, flame wars could ensue, especially if another person came here looking for a third abridged take. Since there's so many Pokémon abridged series out there, it's best to assume none of them are notable and let the confusion stay on {{wp|Youtube}}. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 00:51, 22 April 2010 (UTC)

== Double & Walking Sprites? ==

I just realized that for the games that have animated sprites for each Pokemon (not counting Crystal), the animation cycles through two different sprites. However, in the Sprites section for each Pokemon, only one sprite is made available--Emerald's animated sprites shows the second sprite, but only in its animation.

Basically, would it be realistic/possible to have both sprites available on each Pokemon's page? Now I'm sure this idea has been kicked around by you guys by now, and I suspect that it's NOT possible, otherwise you would have done it by now. BUT... if someone made those second sprites available, would you consider adding it to the site?

Also, what are your plans to include the HGSS walking sprites to each Pokemon's sprite section? Are you guys working on adding it, or has that idea been shot down?

Only curious... - [[User:Nick15|Nick15]] 01:24, 22 April 2010 (UTC)
:Two things. First off, it's best that you ask {{u|Maverick Nate}} in regards to the Archives, etc. Not saying TTE's not a user to talk to, but Maverick is more suitable for this. Second, in answer to the latter, the "walking sprites" as you call it (we call it overworld sprites), are on a need-basis. If the template needs it, we upload it. {{u|Umeko}} would be appropriate to ask for those sprites, though other users have them as well.

::Nick, both sprites are available on the Pokémon's pages. We don't do the midframe sprites alone. They're included in the animated ones, which for the most part are pngs and thus unviewable in crappy browsers. CRAPPY BROWSERS INCLUDE STUFF THAT'S NOT MOZILLA OR OPERA.

:::To which, I guess if you'll take suggestions on revamping the sprite box--though I'm sure anything I'll suggest is stuff you've already figured out, so forgive me if I'm just repeating your ideas--but maybe it'd be a cool idea if you had the animated sprite with both singular stationary frames next to them.

*Mars has an unusually similar hairstyle that is shared by Silver in HeartGold and SoulSilver. - [[Mars]]'s page
*Stantler is one of a few Pokémon whose previous generation sprites are almost identical to a later generation's. In this case, its Generation III sprites are very similar to its Diamond and Pearl sprites. - {{p|Stantler}}'s page
*Meowth's sprite in Pokémon Green is almost completely symmetrical. The only exception is its tail. Shellder and Snorlax's sprites in the game are symmetrical, too. - {{p|Meowth}}'s page.

I have noticed that {{tt|talking to|re-editing}} the problematic {{tt|children|articles}} will remind them that my {{tt|child|article}} is real, but in the end it will take a lot of time to {{tt|talk to|re-edit}} each {{tt|child|article}} individually, especially when I have nothing else to {{tt|say|add}} to them. Is there any other way that you suggest we could {{tt|discipline|fix}} the other problematic {{tt|children|articles}} so this madness can be put to an end?

== Wanted pages ==

A few days ago a user vandalised [[AG155]], filling it with redlinks and was promptly blocked by {{u|Maverick Nate}} and the edits undone. However the [[Special:WantedPages|Wanted pages]] have updated three or four times since then and the redlinks are still appearing on it. I've checked and they definitely don't appear on AG155, and it is apparently the only one linking to them. Any idea why this is happening? <sc>[[User:Werdnae|Werdnae]]</sc> [[User talk:Werdnae|(talk)]] 08:18, 5 May 2010 (UTC)

== Grammar ==

Hi there TTEchidna,

I would like to obtain your permission to correct some grammar. I have seen the term "off of" in several pages in Bulbapedia and this troubles me as I beleive this to be incorrect grammar. The correct usage of this word, In my eyes, should be as follows:

"After stowing away and getting kicked off of the S.S. Anne, Red meets the Pokémon Fan Club Chairman"
Would become
"After stowing away and getting kicked off the S.S. Anne, Red meets the Pokémon Fan Club Chairman

The reason for this is the "of" is considered superfluous and is really not needed for the sentence to make sence. Also,

"Lugia's name may be based off of the Beluga whale"
Would become
"Lugia's name may be based on the Beluga whale"

This is the correct grammar in terms of the english language.

I have also found that doing a search with "based on" gives far more results than "based off of" in both Google and Bulbapedia. The confusion in the matter is that "off of" is used in the spoken aspects of the english language and while it might seem natural to hear, on paper it is considered incorrect.

I, with your permission, would like to begin the correction progress over this matter to improve Bulbapedia. I have had discussions with CuboneKing and he reffered me to you. I look forward to your reply.

Thanks,

--[[User:Burjojo|Burjojo]] 01:04, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
:Yet may I point out that you failed to capitalize "English"? Anyway, go ahead if you want, change grammar that's incorrect. Just remember, there are things like regional dialects to the language. Personally, I ''always'' use "off of". I dunno, of is probably redundant, you're right. Just make sure that you're not "correcting" "James's" to "James'". Does it belong to more than one Jame? No? Then it's James's. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 02:02, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

I apologise for my oversight of the capital E, I found it amusing that you noticed that in a plea about grammar haha. But anyway, thank you for your help and I will set about doing this. And no worries about the "James's" either --[[User:Burjojo|Burjojo]] 10:00, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

== New Pokédex template ==

Since this is currently protected and I will go offline shortly I will give my opinion here.
At the moment I do not support it for the following reasons:
*Lack of generational grouping-while I know this has little to with the entries I like how the current system of grouping the entries under Gen I,Gen II etc.
*Too much dead space-Mainly next to the tab headings, the current template fits together nicely with no blank spaces.
*Game names are too small- as I write I have a headache and thus do not appreciate squinting overly much.
*I do like the way you have grouped the entries that are the same across several games but think that this would be better included in the current template than making a whole new one.
Thank you for your time, and while I do have my objections I realise you have spent a lot of effort on this page and it does look good, it just doesn't quite appeal to my aesthetic sensibilities. Great job!
--[[User:Beligaronia|Beligaronia]] ([[User talk:Beligaronia|talk]]) 05:28, 6 May 2010 (UTC)
:Well, it's all about updating the style, too. The current one is more or less the squarey one we had when we first implemented the template itself in 2006, but with a roundy shell. I'll be keeping your points in mind, however. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 06:06, 6 May 2010 (UTC)

'''Wobbuffet''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ソーナンス''' ''Sonans'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} [[Pokémon]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Wynaut}} starting at [[level]] 15.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Wobbuffet is a tall, cyan-colored blob-like creature with a black tail that has two eye-spots on it. Wobbuffet has flipper-like arms and a crooked expression on its face, as opposed to the perpetual smile that {{p|Wynaut|its un-evolved form}} has. It also walks on four legs at its base.

====Gender differences====
Female Wobbuffet appear to be wearing lipstick.

====Special abilities====
Wobbuffet is only capable of {{m|counter}}ing enemy attacks. However, it is highly effective at doing this due to its high endurance. It also has the curious ability to {{a|Shadow Tag|keep its opponent from retreating}}.

===Behavior===
When two Wobbuffet meet, they usually try to test each others' endurance. Even though Wobbuffet are classified as "Patient" Pokémon, a [[Pokémon Trainer]] who has it often finds that his or her Wobbuffet tends to pop out of its [[Poké Ball]] by itself, shouting out in agreement of something someone said.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Cave.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon}}]]
Wobbuffet live in dark caves to keep their tail hidden.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Wobbuffet initial appearance.png|right|thumb|Wobbuffet's first appearance]]
===Major appearances===
====Jessie's Wobbuffet====
{{main|Jessie's Wobbuffet}}
[[Jessie]] has a Wobbuffet that frequently emerges from its [[Poké Ball]] to shout its name or cause what Jessie considers to be trouble. It has appeared in almost every episode since she accidentally traded her {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}} for it in ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]''. However, she rarely uses Wobbuffet in battle.

====Other====
''[[EP173|Wobbu-palooza]]'' featured a town in which everyone owned a Wobbuffet.

===Minor appearances===

===Pokédex entries===

{{Animedexbody|EP146|Wobbuffet|Ash's Pokédex|Wobbuffet, the Patient Pokémon. Wobbuffet like to live in dark areas so they can keep their pitch black tail concealed.}}
{{Animedexbody|EP146|Wobbuffet|James's Book|Wobbuffet, the Patient Pokémon. Is unable to initiate attacks.}}
{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Johto}}

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
Wobbuffet first appeared in {{PAV|11}} under the ownership of {{adv|Crystal}}'s mother.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Wobbuffet (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
[[Image:Wobbuffet Brawl.jpg|thumb|right|Wobbuffet in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]===
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Wobbuffet will stand on the stage in one place. Anyone attacking or running into it will be damaged by its {{m|Counter}}, apart from the player who threw the Poké Ball, who will only be knocked back.

Wobbuffet is also a [[Poké Floats|Poké Float]] in Melee. It appears on its side and never fully reveals itself. When it first appears, it will quickly return off-screen but will then come back and remain to allow for fighting to take place on top of it.

====Melee trophy information====
A Patient Pokémon, Wobbuffet lives in darkness to hide its mismatched black tail. Even for a stoic Pokémon, this creature is a testament to self-control; it will not actively attack an opponent. Its {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}} moves are solely used for reflecting attacks directly back at its antagonist.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]]: Wobbuffet and {{p|Wynaut}} send the {{player}} on a mission into the [[Uproar Forest]]. As thanks for completing it, they help to remodel the rescue base. Notably, the Wobbuffet is the only Pokémon in the entire game that doesn't speak human language. This may be an oversight by the translators, since in Explorers of Sky (as mentioned below) he does not speak this way.
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]]: Wobbuffet (confirmed to be female by its [[gender differences#Wobbuffet|lipstick]]) once again joins Wynaut, only this time, they're running a shop in the Spinda Cafe, called the Recycle Shop. Unlike the first game, it no longer says its name, and instead says "That's right!"

==Trivia==
* Its Japanese name, when paired with the Japanese name of its pre-evolution, {{p|Wynaut}}, ソーナノ ''Sohnano'', makes for a potential perpetual conversation of "that's the way it is" followed by "really?", and so on, as seen in ''[[PK12|Camp Pikachu]]''.
* Wobbuffet has the third highest base {{stat|HP}} stat in the {{pkmn|games}}, after {{p|Blissey}} and {{p|Chansey}}.
** It also has the highest base HP of all {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon, the only stat among the Pokémon of this type that is not dominated by a Forme of {{p|Deoxys}}.
* Wobbuffet is one of fourteen Pokémon that one can collect [[Meister|foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
* It is one of five evolution families to learn both {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}}. The others are {{p|Deoxys}} in Defense Forme (via [[level|leveling up]]), {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Mudkip}} (both via {{pkmn|breeding}}), and {{p|Squirtle}} (via breeding and [[move tutor|move tutoring]] in {{game|Emerald}}).
* If the opponent does not attack Wobbuffet, Wobbuffet cannot harm the opponent except with {{m|Struggle}} (itself unusable unless Wobbuffet has run out of moves).
* Wobbuffet and {{p|Sudowoodo}} are the only fully evolved Pokémon that cannot learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} or {{m|Giga Impact}}.
** It is also the only fully [[Evolution|evolved]] [[Pokémon]] that can't learn any [[TM]]s.
* Wobbuffett bears somewhat of a resemblance to [[zw:ChuChu|ChuChu]]s from the [[zw:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|Zelda series]].

===Origin===
It may be based on the late Japanese comedian 林家三平 ''{{wp|Sanpei Hayashiya}}'', who was famous for repeatedly touching his hand to his forehead while saying one of his trademark lines, そうなんす、奥さん ''sō nansu, okusan'', "That's the way it is, ma'am."

In addition, its form and available moves may be based on a {{wp|punching bag}}; that is, when it is hit, it bounces back.
Alternatively, it may be based on the concept of {{wp|Karma}} as it can only cause damage if it is attacked first.

====Name origin====
Wobbuffet's name is a combination of ''buffet'', as in to strike repeatedly, and ''wobble'', both references to its punching-bag shape.

Its Japanese name is homophonous with the interjection そうなんす ''sō na-n-su'', which roughly means "that's the way it is." Its Japanese name is played off by its pre-evolution, Wynaut, whose Japanese name of ソーナノ is nearly homophonous with the phrase "そうなの", meaning "really?". Other languages' names for the Pokémon in this family, due to the fact that they were introduced in different generations, do not feature this pun.

==In other languages==

*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Qulbutoke - A play on ''Culbuto'' (the French trademarked name for {{wp|Weeble}}s) and the expression ''OK''.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 마자용 ''Majayong'' - A play on ''Majayo'', which means "That's correct/That's right".

'''Wobbuffet''' ([[List of Japanese Pokémon names|Japanese]]: '''ソーナンス''' ''Sonans'') is a {{type2|Psychic}} [[Pokémon]].

It [[Evolution|evolves]] from {{p|Wynaut}} starting at [[level]] 15.

==Biology==
===Physiology===
Wobbuffet is a tall, cyan-colored blob-like creature with a black tail that has two eye-spots on it. Wobbuffet has flipper-like arms and a crooked expression on its face, as opposed to the perpetual smile that {{p|Wynaut|its un-evolved form}} has. It also walks on four legs at its base.

====Gender differences====
Female Wobbuffet appear to be wearing lipstick.

====Special abilities====
Wobbuffet is only capable of {{m|counter}}ing enemy attacks. However, it is highly effective at doing this due to its high endurance. It also has the curious ability to {{a|Shadow Tag|keep its opponent from retreating}}.

===Behavior===
When two Wobbuffet meet, they usually try to test each others' endurance. Even though Wobbuffet are classified as "Patient" Pokémon, a [[Pokémon Trainer]] who has it often finds that his or her Wobbuffet tends to pop out of its [[Poké Ball]] by itself, shouting out in agreement of something someone said.

===Habitat===
[[Image:Cave.gif|right|frame|{{DL|List of Pokémon by habitat|Cave Pokémon}}]]
Wobbuffet live in dark caves to keep their tail hidden.

===Diet===
{{main|Pokémon food}}

==In the anime==
[[Image:Wobbuffet initial appearance.png|right|thumb|Wobbuffet's first appearance]]
===Major appearances===
====Jessie's Wobbuffet====
{{main|Jessie's Wobbuffet}}
[[Jessie]] has a Wobbuffet that frequently emerges from its [[Poké Ball]] to shout its name or cause what Jessie considers to be trouble. It has appeared in almost every episode since she accidentally traded her {{TP|Jessie|Lickitung}} for it in ''[[EP146|Tricks of the Trade]]''. However, she rarely uses Wobbuffet in battle.

====Other====
''[[EP173|Wobbu-palooza]]'' featured a town in which everyone owned a Wobbuffet.

===Minor appearances===

===Pokédex entries===

{{Animedexfooter/Pokémon|original|Johto}}

==In the manga==
===Pokémon Adventures===
Wobbuffet first appeared in {{PAV|11}} under the ownership of {{adv|Crystal}}'s mother.

==In the TCG==
{{main|Wobbuffet (TCG)}}

==Other appearances==
[[Image:Wobbuffet Brawl.jpg|thumb|right|Wobbuffet in [[Super Smash Bros. Brawl]]]]
===[[Super Smash Bros. Melee]]/[[Super Smash Bros. Brawl|Brawl]]===
When released from a [[Poké Ball]], Wobbuffet will stand on the stage in one place. Anyone attacking or running into it will be damaged by its {{m|Counter}}, apart from the player who threw the Poké Ball, who will only be knocked back.

Wobbuffet is also a [[Poké Floats|Poké Float]] in Melee. It appears on its side and never fully reveals itself. When it first appears, it will quickly return off-screen but will then come back and remain to allow for fighting to take place on top of it.

====Melee trophy information====
A Patient Pokémon, Wobbuffet lives in darkness to hide its mismatched black tail. Even for a stoic Pokémon, this creature is a testament to self-control; it will not actively attack an opponent. Its {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}} moves are solely used for reflecting attacks directly back at its antagonist.

==Game data==
===NPC appearances===
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Red Rescue Team and Blue Rescue Team]]: Wobbuffet and {{p|Wynaut}} send the {{player}} on a mission into the [[Uproar Forest]]. As thanks for completing it, they help to remodel the rescue base. Notably, the Wobbuffet is the only Pokémon in the entire game that doesn't speak human language. This may be an oversight by the translators, since in Explorers of Sky (as mentioned below) he does not speak this way.
* [[Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky]]: Wobbuffet (confirmed to be female by its [[gender differences#Wobbuffet|lipstick]]) once again joins Wynaut, only this time, they're running a shop in the Spinda Cafe, called the Recycle Shop. Unlike the first game, it no longer says its name, and instead says "That's right!"

==Trivia==
* Its Japanese name, when paired with the Japanese name of its pre-evolution, {{p|Wynaut}}, ソーナノ ''Sohnano'', makes for a potential perpetual conversation of "that's the way it is" followed by "really?", and so on, as seen in ''[[PK12|Camp Pikachu]]''.
* Wobbuffet has the third highest base {{stat|HP}} stat in the {{pkmn|games}}, after {{p|Blissey}} and {{p|Chansey}}.
** It also has the highest base HP of all {{type2|Psychic}} Pokémon, the only stat among the Pokémon of this type that is not dominated by a Forme of {{p|Deoxys}}.
* Wobbuffet is one of fourteen Pokémon that one can collect [[Meister|foreign Pokédex entries]] for in {{game|Diamond and Pearl|s}}.
* It is one of five evolution families to learn both {{m|Counter}} and {{m|Mirror Coat}}. The others are {{p|Deoxys}} in Defense Forme (via [[level|leveling up]]), {{p|Shellos}} and {{p|Mudkip}} (both via {{pkmn|breeding}}), and {{p|Squirtle}} (via breeding and [[move tutor|move tutoring]] in {{game|Emerald}}).
* If the opponent does not attack Wobbuffet, Wobbuffet cannot harm the opponent except with {{m|Struggle}} (itself unusable unless Wobbuffet has run out of moves).
* Wobbuffet and {{p|Sudowoodo}} are the only fully evolved Pokémon that cannot learn {{m|Hyper Beam}} or {{m|Giga Impact}}.
** It is also the only fully [[Evolution|evolved]] [[Pokémon]] that can't learn any [[TM]]s.
* Wobbuffett bears somewhat of a resemblance to [[zw:Chuchu|Chuchu]]s from the [[zw:The Legend of Zelda (Series)|Zelda series]].

===Origin===
It may be based on the late Japanese comedian 林家三平 ''{{wp|Sanpei Hayashiya}}'', who was famous for repeatedly touching his hand to his forehead while saying one of his trademark lines, そうなんす、奥さん ''sō nansu, okusan'', "That's the way it is, ma'am."

In addition, its form and available moves may be based on a {{wp|punching bag}}; that is, when it is hit, it bounces back.
Alternatively, it may be based on the concept of {{wp|Karma}} as it can only cause damage if it is attacked first.

====Name origin====
Wobbuffet's name is a combination of ''buffet'', as in to strike repeatedly, and ''wobble'', both references to its punching-bag shape.

Its Japanese name is homophonous with the interjection そうなんす ''sō na-n-su'', which roughly means "that's the way it is." Its Japanese name is played off by its pre-evolution, Wynaut, whose Japanese name of ソーナノ is nearly homophonous with the phrase "そうなの", meaning "really?". Other languages' names for the Pokémon in this family, due to the fact that they were introduced in different generations, do not feature this pun.

==In other languages==
*[[List of German Pokémon names|German]]: Woingenau - Corrupted version of ''"Wohin genau?"'' ("Where to, exactly?").
*[[List of French Pokémon names|French]]: Qulbutoke - A play on ''Culbuto'' (the French trademarked name for {{wp|Weeble}}s) and the expression ''OK''.
*[[List of Korean Pokémon names|Korean]]: 마자용 ''Majayong'' - A play on ''Majayo'', which means "That's correct/That's right".

{{User:TTEchidna/Archive}}

Happy 2010 folks. Maybe a gift for me for the new year? Don't kill the talk page before Bulbapedia's upcoming '''''FIFTH ANNIVERSARY!''''' '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]'''

== Pokéwalker ==

Official site ''and'' press site says lowercase.--'''[[User:Immewnity|''immewnity'']][[User talk:Immewnity|the]][[Special:Contributions/Immewnity|mew]]''' 04:07, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
:Well. I guess if we've got agreement... We have English boxart, does it say the lowercase W too? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 04:20, 13 January 2010 (UTC)
::They all do :p I still say we go for the change haha... [[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 04:27, 13 January 2010 (UTC)

== Poké Ball ==

I found the GSC entry for the Ultra Ball. It says "A BALL with a high rate of success.". Since the page is protected, I can't do anything about it, but you can make the edit since you're a sysop. Thanks! Oh, I also found the Great Ball's entry, too. "A BALL with a decent success rate". Just thought I'd add that. :) --[[User:Oz|'''O''']][[User talk:Oz|'''z''']] [[Special:Contributions/Oz|(The Wizard at Work!)]] 06:28, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
:Great. Make sure that you don't allcaps stuff, though. If it's allcaps in Gen I-III, chances are, it's meant just to be initial-cap'd. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 06:34, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

== CAPS in description of Route 110 signage ==

You changed "TEAM MAGMA" and "TEAM AQUA", taken directly from in-game text, to "Team Magma" and "Team Aqua". Is there some rule that says no caps-locked words even if that's how they are in-game, or did you just assume that they weren't in caps in-game? Looking at it anew, I can understand how it might look ugly; would it perhaps be better if the caps were like "<sc>Team Magma</sc>" and "<sc>Team Aqua</sc>"? [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] 06:43, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
:No. Caps is bad. Gen III and before did that so the words stood out. Do we have it as PIKACHU (Pokémon) or Pikachu (Pokémon)? No small-caps either unless it's a specific style, like the Wonder Cards, it's blah. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 06:49, 16 January 2010 (UTC)

== New template creation ==

Hey, could you point me in the right direction? There seems to be a problem with the way some tables in [[Pokémon Rumble]] locations are viewed, due to my cheap, throw-away coding. I'd like to make tables that resemble the present/absent tables (ex: [[Hia_Valley|here]]). I don't know how to start and I don't have enough time to learn. (I'm being {{ut|Jazzmoth|heckled}} by {{u|Sidnoea}} right now.) Would you be able to help me create the template, or can you tell me who can? Thanks!! [[User:Jazzmoth|Jazzmoth]] 21:03, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
:Templates are easy to make. Usually for a Pokémon list, you start off by making a table that shows how it'll look. You split that into the header, base, and footer: the header is the top of the table, the footer is notes and the end of the table, and the base is each individual row, usually a Pokémon. When put together they become a big table. And usually I take care of them but we've had a few others do so, so check out some of the creators of the templates. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 00:14, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

== Those Apricorn templates ==

They're so big and so orange that they make my eyes bleed. What about shortening them a bit? Like deleting the "Introduced in Gen II" thing. All Apricorns debuted in Gen. II. It's redundant. At least make those templates less wide, hence less ugly. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 10:05, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
:That's the items template. All items have the "introduced in Gen X" part. Haven't you seen my testing? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 10:11, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
::Still, that should be made smaller. Also, in the case of Pokéballs, it's still redudant as we have them already grouped in section according to the generations they first appeared in. Also, you completely ignored the Gen. II Park Ball. It's not completely the same as Compe Ball (OMG, I can't wait for English version when we'll stop using that unreasoned idiotic "é"). It had different name in both Japanese and English (probably) and was different in design. We can't ignore the fact that something like "Park Ball" existed in Gen II. There's just one problem - there were no item sprites back then (hell, why did they HAVE to replace such an awesome Ball with some useless normal PokeBall with a sticker). --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 10:15, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
:::The Compé Ball is the Park Ball. Same use, same catch rate, same place... in all technicalities I'd say we ought combine the Exp. All and Exp. Share, since they ''are'' the same in Japan. And the Park Ball... um, that wasn't official art we had before, as far as the style appears. And note the note at the bottom, of course. It was known as the Park Ball in Gen II.
:::As for taking out the gen-intro thing... I can make a million exceptions and it'll still be "redundant" for those who've been with the series since Gen I. For once, I'm actually thinking of the new kids who never had GS, and only have HGSS.
:::I don't much like the Compé's design, either, you know, but that's how it goes. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 10:45, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
::::I believe that some hidden art for Park Ball DOES exist, since they appear in practically the same design in both Anime and PokeSpe. Also, the art which [http://pokesho.com/note_boll.html PokeSho has in his PokeBall article] looks pretty official (though, you never know, Pokesho is an amazing fanartman). Of course, we may say that Compe Ball was just renamed (to avoid confusion with Pal Park Ball) and visually overhauled (redesigns happen, see Itemfinder) but the fact that it used to be green and called "Park Ball" should definitely be noted. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 10:58, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
:::::Well, take a look at our thing. We've got Compé and Park Ball art here, too, in the 25-ball art. And my girlfriend basically edited that in. I don't know personally if PokéSho did the edit himself (hey it's doable) but yeah. Plus, hey, it didn't have a sprite in Gen II, so what can you do? ItemFinder will be interesting, unless they call the HGSS one "Dowsing Machine" like the Pokétch App. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 11:39, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
::::::Of course. Pokesho might just edit it. He's a fanart master, after all. As for Itemfinder, I don't believe that they'll rename it. "Dowsing Machine" exceeds the 12 character limit. And HGSS is built on Platinum's engine so this limit ain't gonna change (and I doubt that it ever will). --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 12:48, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
:::::::Yeah, tradition and all. Maybe they'll CamelCase it as ItemFinder, though. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 21:46, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

== {{u|Smoochum}} ==

I'm recommending that this user have the "abuse" tag slapped on. The user in question accrued two userspace warnings with the main account, then used a sockpuppet called "Smoochum xx" to try to get around those warnings and garnered two more userspace warnings in the process. Checkuser verifies that "Smoochum xx" is indeed Smoochum's sockpuppet, and hence why I'm combining the number of overall warnings to four and calling for the slap-on of an "abuse" tag as a result. Can this request be done? Thanks. --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 19:24, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
:got it. was wondering if the user should get a block too, for the "user warning" evasion though... -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|MAG]][[User:MAGNEDETH#Interesting Stuff|NE]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|DETH]]''' 19:43, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
::The sock for sure should get an infinite. The plain user, eh, a day. First offense is warning. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 21:30, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

== Blaine's gym quiz machines ==

You know the last question, right? The one that in the English versions asks if TM28 contains Tombstoner? Well, I wanted to see what was the question in the Japanese versions and this is what I got:

http://i366.photobucket.com/albums/oo102/Satoshi2000/katsura_tm28_jpn_tombstoner.png

So what is the word or expression しねしねこうせん ''Shineshinekōsen'' supposed to mean? しねしね results in "rice rice" (?) and こうせん means light beam, but I'm not seeing how it could be translated properly. [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 21:27, 19 January 2010 (UTC)
:I dunno. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 22:00, 19 January 2010 (UTC)

::Hold on, how did "Tombstoner" come about? As far as I recall, the fake move name was actually "Tombstony", at least in {{v2|Yellow}} and [[Generation III]]...--[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 01:13, 20 January 2010 (UTC)

:::It's Tombstoner. And I'm pretty sure that's in all Gens with Kanto. I can check though... '''[[Team Rocket|R.A.]] [[User:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Hunter]] [[User Talk:Rocket Admin Hunter Blade|Blade]]''' 05:22, 20 January 2010 (UTC)
::::しねしねこうせん - I'm going to guess that しね is supposed to be the informal imperative form of the verb "to die;" ie. "DIE!!!" And that doubling it is supposed to make it sound sillier. So, roughly, "DEATH BEAM!!!" or something, probably meant to be a play off of Hakai Kousen (aka. Hyper Beam), which means "Destruction Beam." In other words... it's a ridiculous fake attack name that is supposed to be easily identified as false, like "Tombstoner."

== Border-radius workaround? ==

As you know well, we use moz-border-radius, despite {{tt|WebKit|Safari and Chrome}} and {{tt|Presto|Opera browsers}} having their respective specifications. I'm also pretty sure that the problems will be solved when border-radius becomes a web standard. However, I think I might discovered a workaround [http://home.e-tjenesten.org/~ato/2009/08/border-radius-opera here]. I don't understand PHP so I can't say nothing about the subject but is there something that could be applied on our sites? [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 21:58, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
:That's for the site's CSS. Templates... not so much. It appears to work pretty much the same, but to actually have it work on Safari, Chrome, and Opera, that'd be a hell of a lot of extra code to put in on ''every instance'' of -moz-border-radius, let alone for the things that only have one or two corners rounded, such as table cells. And considering there's still nothing for that crapsack of a web browser, IE, I think we can put this on the back burner until there's a way to activate roundycorners in every browser with ''one'' codecall, rather than three to activate it in four browsers. A majority of our users use Firefox anyway, and the templates look just fine in IE and other browsers even without the roundy, so don't worry about it. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 00:12, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
::Too late for an answer, I know. At least, I understood somewhat better the reasons and hope that it becomes a standard the soonest possible because even though {{tt|I haven't been using Firefox for a while now|mainly Chrome because Opera 10.50 is beta}}, I miss the roundy corners. Fortunately, both Chrome and Opera (likely Safari as well) support them to an extent already, even here on the 'Pedia, so it's a good sign.

== Gold/Ethan ==

Really, why are you so stubborn about that Gold thing? That was never his officially official name. Those were just silly Gen. II booklets referring to him as such. But he didn't exist as NPC back then so all the names were just optional choices, there wasn't a real canon name for him at all. NPC names are the only 100% confirmed ones. And his NPC name is Ethan, not Gold. HGSS doesn't use "Gold" at all, not even as an optional choice. It annoys me how you keep comparing this to Red's situation. Red was a NPC in GSC already. And his NPC name was Red. "Ash" or "Jack" don't have anything to do with it - those are just optional choices that have never been used in a canon context in the games (aside from old Prima guides), calling Red "Ash" would make as much sense as calling May "Kimmy". This isn't really the case for Gold/Ethan. The only really confirmed name for him is Ethan. Even if GameFreak DID plan to name him "Gold" in Gen II times - they didn't really confirm it anywhere (booklets were made by USers, they're no proof). We just assumed "Gold" because of Red and Blue/Green. But since HGSS revealed his name as Ethan/Hibiki, that means it's his real name. It's not a retcon or a change, just a denial of our old (and widespread) assumption. It was obvious that they wouldn't change Red to "Ash" or anything. The name "Red" has been long confirmed and used in NPC context. It would be a blatant, nosense retcon. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 09:30, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

Hey, you seem to know a lot about this. I asked CoolPikachu this question, and I ain't getting any answers, so I wanted to ask you. I watch the Pokemon Episodes online, and I put down the attacks in the 'in the anime' movesets. I was wondering if it was alright if I could put up an 'in the manga' section on the moves, using the same template and everything underneath the 'in the anime' section?

== Romanization or translation: which to use when ==

I just read the {{bp|Manual of style/Romanization|MOS/R}} but that didn't answer my question. For example, I've recently changed [[Mt. Chimney]]'s and [[Mt. Pyre]]'s Japanese names from translations to rōmaji because it seemed like someone had copy-pasted the English names. Thus, to avoid any undesirable edits in the future, what should be performed: translations or romanizations? Another reason why this is confusing is by contrasting these two articles I mentioned with [[Mt. Silver]]'s, whose Japanese name is indicated as Shirogane Mountain instead of Silverly-White Mountain (another reason why I changed Mt. Chimney's and Mt. Pyre's Japanese names to Entotsu Mountain and Oburiki Mountain, respectively). [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 17:57, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

I have noticed in a ton of pages, that instead of particular colors being named off in the coding, there are a set of numbers that tell it to show a color.

Is there a page showing all of these codes or something? Thanks --'''[[User:Landfish7| Land]][[User talk:Landfish7|fish]]'''7 13:00, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
:These are hex codes. I'm not an expert, but if what I remember is correct, the first two digits represent the Red, the next two represent the Green and the final two represent the Blue. Together they can create any color you want. Every digit can go from zero to F (which, if you count, means 16 options for each digit.) There are plenty of programs you can use to find hex codes, I (and probably most people) use Photoshop. Hope that helps. --[[User:ElectAbuzzzz|'''electAbuzz''']][[User talk:ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']][[Special:Contributions/ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']] 13:43, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
::What Buzz says is correct. That's a range of 256 for each of them, counting hexadecimally (meaning after 09, you go to 0A, and after 3F you go to 40). If you notice, the color templates (which we use mostly to keep our colors easily standardized, and change them quickly across a lot of pages if we decide to) are actually hexadecimal code themselves, with the only thing that is passed when the template is transcluded being the hexadecimal code for that color. See? {{template|red color}} is {{red color}}, the color we've chosen to represent {{game|Red}}. As for the light green in my signature, that's {{template|Bulba color}}, which we've chosen to represent Bulbagarden and Bulbapedia; signatures can't use templates so it auto-substs.
::As for a page that lists colors, Wikipedia's got a hexadecimal {{wp|list of colors}}, which has a bunch of nice ones, while there are [http://www.webmonkey.com/reference/Color_Charts several places] online where you can find the 216 web-safe (that's basically, differential enough for the human eye to distinguish between on a crappy computer) colors.

[[User:Jazzmoth|Jazzmoth]] 21:03, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
:Templates are easy to make. Usually for a Pokémon list, you start off by making a table that shows how it'll look. You split that into the header, base, and footer: the header is the top of the table, the footer is notes and the end of the table, and the base is each individual row, usually a Pokémon. When put together they become a big table. And usually I take care of them but we've had a few others do so, so check out some of the creators of the templates.

::Still, that should be made smaller. Also, in the case of Pokéballs, it's still redudant as we have them already grouped in section according to the generations they first appeared in. Also, you completely ignored the Gen. II Park Ball. It's not completely the same as Compe Ball (OMG, I can't wait for English version when we'll stop using that unreasoned idiotic "é"). It had different name in both Japanese and English (probably) and was different in design. We can't ignore the fact that something like "Park Ball" existed in Gen II. There's just one problem - there were no item sprites back then (hell, why did they HAVE to replace such an awesome Ball with some useless normal PokeBall with a sticker). --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 10:15, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
:::The Compé Ball is the Park Ball. Same use, same catch rate, same place... in all technicalities I'd say we ought combine the Exp. All and Exp. Share, since they ''are'' the same in Japan. And the Park Ball... um, that wasn't official art we had before, as far as the style appears. And note the note at the bottom, of course. It was known as the Park Ball in Gen II.
:::As for taking out the gen-intro thing... I can make a million exceptions and it'll still be "redundant" for those who've been with the series since Gen I. For once, I'm actually thinking of the new kids who never had GS, and only have HGSS.

Also, the art which [http://pokesho.com/note_boll.html PokeSho has in his PokeBall article] looks pretty official (though, you never know, Pokesho is an amazing fanartman). Of course, we may say that Compe Ball was just renamed (to avoid confusion with Pal Park Ball) and visually overhauled (redesigns happen, see Itemfinder) but the fact that it used to be green and called "Park Ball" should definitely be noted. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 10:58, 17 January 2010 (UTC)

== Border-radius workaround? ==

As you know well, we use moz-border-radius, despite {{tt|WebKit|Safari and Chrome}} and {{tt|Presto|Opera browsers}} having their respective specifications. I'm also pretty sure that the problems will be solved when border-radius becomes a web standard. However, I think I might discovered a workaround [http://home.e-tjenesten.org/~ato/2009/08/border-radius-opera here]. I don't understand PHP so I can't say nothing about the subject but is there something that could be applied on our sites? [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 21:58, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
:That's for the site's CSS. Templates... not so much. It appears to work pretty much the same, but to actually have it work on Safari, Chrome, and Opera, that'd be a hell of a lot of extra code to put in on ''every instance'' of -moz-border-radius, let alone for the things that only have one or two corners rounded, such as table cells. And considering there's still nothing for that crapsack of a web browser, IE, I think we can put this on the back burner until there's a way to activate roundycorners in every browser with ''one'' codecall, rather than three to activate it in four browsers. A majority of our users use Firefox anyway, and the templates look just fine in IE and other browsers even without the roundy, so don't worry about it. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 00:12, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
::Too late for an answer, I know. At least, I understood somewhat better the reasons and hope that it becomes a standard the soonest possible because even though {{tt|I haven't been using Firefox for a while now|mainly Chrome because Opera 10.50 is beta}}, I miss the roundy corners. Fortunately, both Chrome and Opera (likely Safari as well) support them to an extent already, even here on the 'Pedia, so it's a good sign.

== New Psybeam Pic ==

[[File:Mew_Psybeam.png]]

I got a pretty cool screenshot of Mew from Pokémon The First Movie. The Psybeam page seems to have some decent pictures, but I think that maybe the Mew (movie 1) page could use a better picture.

== Gold/Ethan ==

Really, why are you so stubborn about that Gold thing? That was never his officially official name. Those were just silly Gen. II booklets referring to him as such. But he didn't exist as NPC back then so all the names were just optional choices, there wasn't a real canon name for him at all. NPC names are the only 100% confirmed ones. And his NPC name is Ethan, not Gold. HGSS doesn't use "Gold" at all, not even as an optional choice. It annoys me how you keep comparing this to Red's situation. Red was a NPC in GSC already. And his NPC name was Red. "Ash" or "Jack" don't have anything to do with it - those are just optional choices that have never been used in a canon context in the games (aside from old Prima guides), calling Red "Ash" would make as much sense as calling May "Kimmy". This isn't really the case for Gold/Ethan. The only really confirmed name for him is Ethan. Even if GameFreak DID plan to name him "Gold" in Gen II times - they didn't really confirm it anywhere (booklets were made by USers, they're no proof). We just assumed "Gold" because of Red and Blue/Green. But since HGSS revealed his name as Ethan/Hibiki, that means it's his real name. It's not a retcon or a change, just a denial of our old (and widespread) assumption. It was obvious that they wouldn't change Red to "Ash" or anything. The name "Red" has been long confirmed and used in NPC context. It would be a blatant, nosense retcon. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 09:30, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

== Romanization or translation: which to use when ==

I just read the {{bp|Manual of style/Romanization|MOS/R}} but that didn't answer my question. For example, I've recently changed [[Mt. Chimney]]'s and [[Mt. Pyre]]'s Japanese names from translations to rōmaji because it seemed like someone had copy-pasted the English names. Thus, to avoid any undesirable edits in the future, what should be performed: translations or romanizations? Another reason why this is confusing is by contrasting these two articles I mentioned with [[Mt. Silver]]'s, whose Japanese name is indicated as Shirogane Mountain instead of Silverly-White Mountain (another reason why I changed Mt. Chimney's and Mt. Pyre's Japanese names to Entotsu Mountain and Oburiki Mountain, respectively). [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 17:57, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

== Colors ==

I have noticed in a ton of pages, that instead of particular colors being named off in the coding, there are a set of numbers that tell it to show a color. Is there a page that can help me figure out this coding? If you don't know what I'm talking about, just look at your signature above. "C4E673" ends up being a shade of light, light green. Is there a page showing all of these codes or something? Thanks --'''[[User:Landfish7| Land]][[User talk:Landfish7|fish]]'''7 13:00, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
:These are hex codes. I'm not an expert, but if what I remember is correct, the first two digits represent the Red, the next two represent the Green and the final two represent the Blue. Together they can create any color you want. Every digit can go from zero to F (which, if you count, means 16 options for each digit.) There are plenty of programs you can use to find hex codes, I (and probably most people) use Photoshop. Hope that helps. --[[User:ElectAbuzzzz|'''electAbuzz''']][[User talk:ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']][[Special:Contributions/ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']] 13:43, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
::What Buzz says is correct. That's a range of 256 for each of them, counting hexadecimally (meaning after 09, you go to 0A, and after 3F you go to 40). If you notice, the color templates (which we use mostly to keep our colors easily standardized, and change them quickly across a lot of pages if we decide to) are actually hexadecimal code themselves, with the only thing that is passed when the template is transcluded being the hexadecimal code for that color. See? {{template|red color}} is {{red color}}, the color we've chosen to represent {{game|Red}}. As for the light green in my signature, that's {{template|Bulba color}}, which we've chosen to represent Bulbagarden and Bulbapedia; signatures can't use templates so it auto-substs.
::As for a page that lists colors, Wikipedia's got a hexadecimal {{wp|list of colors}}, which has a bunch of nice ones, while there are [http://www.webmonkey.com/reference/Color_Charts several places] online where you can find the 216 web-safe (that's basically, differential enough for the human eye to distinguish between on a crappy computer) colors.

I am willing to take that risk and have that burden of changing the links. I also think it would be better for me to do it now so that when the games do come out it's already done so people can focus on adding other aspects of the games.

== Actores de doblaje de Barry en Latinoamerica ==

Ya que como hablas español y como según dices en tu pagina de usuario en la “wiki española” (no “wiki en español” porque eso está mal dicho) Poketeca, que hablas el idioma español en nivel 3, seguro que me entenderás lo que te voy a decir. Te hago saber esto y que entiendes de manera clara ya que aquí en Latinoamérica nadie nos debe ver con cara de idiotas como lo hacen otros países como España.

Aquí en Latinoamérica hay una web llamada '''Pikaflash''' la cual es del país de México, la cual es muy conocida por sus foros. En dichos foros lo que se hace es hablar sobre varios temas y uno de esos es sobre doblaje de las series y películas en general. En estos foros hay un post en donde se habla y está dedicado al doblaje de Pokemon. (Dejo en claro que este foro como es mexicano, solo hay cosas relacionadas a la región de Latinoamérica por lo que aquí no hay nada que no sea de otro lugar como España ya que a nadie de aquí le interesa o le importa) En dicho post siempre se habla de las voces de personajes, se da a conocer cambios y demás. Para agregar y para que te des cuenta de algo, aquí en Latinoamérica somos muy fanáticos de doblaje a diferencia de otros países y siempre nos hacemos eco en todo. Siempre estamos pendientes de entrevistas a los actores, indagamos en los estudios de doblaje y más. Volviendo al tema [http://www.pikaflash.com/foros/showthread.php?t=18400&page=53 en dicho post], un usuario confirmo que en una entrevista que le hicieron al actor de doblaje Miguel Ángel Ruiz, dijo que para la temporada 12 el es la nueva voz de Barry. ¿Si asi como dices e hiciste [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Barry&diff=974827&oldid=974824 aquí], no crees que debiste haber hecho los mismo en [[Pokémon in Latin America|este]] y [[Ash Ketchum|este]] articulo sobre la información de Gabriel Ramos? Como ya he dicho antes, no se debe dudar de una página como Pikaflash ya que aquí en Latinoamérica somos muy fanáticos del doblaje. Si no fuéramos fans del doblaje, no nos hubiese importado en lo mas mínimo el cambio de voz de tubo Ash y haber realizado movimientos para que Gabriel Ramos vuelva a doblar a Ash. Espero que te haya quedado claro todo esto. --[[User:Toonamimaniacolatino|Toonami]][http://wiki.pkstadium.com/Usuario:Toonamimaniacolatino maniacolatino] 22:17, 3 January 2010 (UTC)

:::(Hubieses dejado un mensaje en mi discusión para haber respondido de manera oportuna. No me gusta vigilar paginas de dilución de usuarios excepto la mía) A otro perro con ese hueso. Pokéteca es una wiki española, no una wiki "en español", ya que '''si no usaran nombres españoles de los juegos que únicamente son traducidos, conocidos y exclusivos de España''', las cosas seria otros y ahí si seria una wiki en español, no una wiki "de españoles". Ahora digo, si aquí no hay casi gente de Latinoamérica que edita aquí, ¿por que será? ¿Sera por que esta es una wiki en ingles? ¿será por que este no es su ambiente y solo pocos latinos andan por aquí solo para complementar información faltantes como agregar los títulos de los episodios doblados? Por su puesto que si, ya que aquí la gente no habla ingles, hable español y no por el hecho que aquí se juega en ingles, la gente de Latinoamérica deba de ser ignorada y no solo estar prestando atención a una gente que ni siquiera sabe hacer un buen doblaje y traducciones o mejor dichos “nombres inventados”. Si bien me dices de esa política, esta bien por un lado, pero otro por otro me parece una falta de respeto a la gente que trata de contribuir, sobre todo si es de Latinoamérica ya que aquí no somos mas que un simple grupo conglomerado de países “tercermundistas” cómos muchos nos llaman (no los culpo por decirnos eso pero eso no es para que se crean la crema y nata como en España). Para terminar, el domingo 14 de febrero se acaba de estrenar DP110 y ahí aparece Barry y consecuentemente su nuevo actor de doblaje que fue confirmado hace ya tiempo, así que te pido de favor que reviertas lo que hiciste en el articulo. --[[User:Toonamimaniacolatino|Toonami]][http://wiki.pkstadium.com/Usuario:Toonamimaniacolatino maniacolatino] 01:03, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

==Manga moves==
Hi. You are head of Project Manga, so I'd figured I'd ask you my question. I was wondering if it was alright to put the moves used by Pokémon in the manga in the move category under 'in the manga' like the 'in the anime' sections of the pages. I have started a section on {{m|Water Gun}} long ago, but lost my [[Pokémon Adventures]] series, but I have found them again and wish to contribute to the page once I am done with the anime.

You changed "TEAM MAGMA" and "TEAM AQUA", taken directly from in-game text, to "Team Magma" and "Team Aqua". Is there some rule that says no caps-locked words even if that's how they are in-game, or did you just assume that they weren't in caps in-game?

[[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] 06:43, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
:No. Caps is bad. Gen III and before did that so the words stood out. Do we have it as PIKACHU (Pokémon) or Pikachu (Pokémon)?

== New template creation ==

Hey, could you point me in the right direction? There seems to be a problem with the way some tables in [[Pokémon Rumble]] locations are viewed, due to my cheap, throw-away coding. I'd like to make tables that resemble the present/absent tables (ex: [[Hia_Valley|here]]). I don't know how to start and I don't have enough time to learn. (I'm being {{ut|Jazzmoth|heckled}} by {{u|Sidnoea}} right now.) Would you be able to help me create the template, or can you tell me who can? Thanks!! [[User:Jazzmoth|Jazzmoth]] 21:03, 16 January 2010 (UTC)
:Templates are easy to make. Usually for a Pokémon list, you start off by making a table that shows how it'll look. You split that into the header, base, and footer: the header is the top of the table, the footer is notes and the end of the table, and the base is each individual row, usually a Pokémon. When put together they become a big table. And usually I take care of them but we've had a few others do so, so check out some of the creators of the templates.

== Those Apricorn templates ==

They're so big and so orange that they make my eyes bleed. What about shortening them a bit? Like deleting the "Introduced in Gen II" thing. All Apricorns debuted in Gen. II. It's redundant. At least make those templates less wide, hence less ugly. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 10:05, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
:That's the items template. All items have the "introduced in Gen X" part. Haven't you seen my testing? '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 10:11, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
::Still, that should be made smaller. Also, in the case of Pokéballs, it's still redudant as we have them already grouped in section according to the generations they first appeared in. Also, you completely ignored the Gen. II Park Ball. It's not completely the same as Compe Ball (OMG, I can't wait for English version when we'll stop using that unreasoned idiotic "é"). It had different name in both Japanese and English (probably) and was different in design. We can't ignore the fact that something like "Park Ball" existed in Gen II. There's just one problem - there were no item sprites back then (hell, why did they HAVE to replace such an awesome Ball with some useless normal PokeBall with a sticker). --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 10:15, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
:::The Compé Ball is the Park Ball. Same use, same catch rate, same place... in all technicalities I'd say we ought combine the Exp. All and Exp. Share, since they ''are'' the same in Japan. And the Park Ball... um, that wasn't official art we had before, as far as the style appears. And note the note at the bottom, of course. It was known as the Park Ball in Gen II.
:::As for taking out the gen-intro thing... I can make a million exceptions and it'll still be "redundant" for those who've been with the series since Gen I. For once, I'm actually thinking of the new kids who never had GS, and only have HGSS.
:::I don't much like the Compé's design, either, you know, but that's how it goes. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 10:45, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
::::I believe that some hidden art for Park Ball DOES exist, since they appear in practically the same design in both Anime and PokeSpe. Also, the art which [http://pokesho.com/note_boll.html PokeSho has in his PokeBall article] looks pretty official (though, you never know, Pokesho is an amazing fanartman). Of course, we may say that Compe Ball was just renamed (to avoid confusion with Pal Park Ball) and visually overhauled (redesigns happen, see Itemfinder) but the fact that it used to be green and called "Park Ball" should definitely be noted. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 10:58, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
:::::Well, take a look at our thing. We've got Compé and Park Ball art here, too, in the 25-ball art. And my girlfriend basically edited that in. I don't know personally if PokéSho did the edit himself (hey it's doable) but yeah. Plus, hey, it didn't have a sprite in Gen II, so what can you do? ItemFinder will be interesting, unless they call the HGSS one "Dowsing Machine" like the Pokétch App. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 11:39, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
::::::Of course. Pokesho might just edit it. He's a fanart master, after all. As for Itemfinder, I don't believe that they'll rename it. "Dowsing Machine" exceeds the 12 character limit.

I'm recommending that this user have the "abuse" tag slapped on. The user in question accrued two userspace warnings with the main account, then used a sockpuppet called "Smoochum xx" to try to get around those warnings and garnered two more userspace warnings in the process.

== Border-radius workaround? ==

As you know well, we use moz-border-radius, despite {{tt|WebKit|Safari and Chrome}} and {{tt|Presto|Opera browsers}} having their respective specifications. I'm also pretty sure that the problems will be solved when border-radius becomes a web standard. However, I think I might discovered a workaround [http://home.e-tjenesten.org/~ato/2009/08/border-radius-opera here]. I don't understand PHP so I can't say nothing about the subject but is there something that could be applied on our sites? [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 21:58, 25 January 2010 (UTC)
:That's for the site's CSS. Templates... not so much. It appears to work pretty much the same, but to actually have it work on Safari, Chrome, and Opera, that'd be a hell of a lot of extra code to put in on ''every instance'' of -moz-border-radius, let alone for the things that only have one or two corners rounded, such as table cells. And considering there's still nothing for that crapsack of a web browser, IE, I think we can put this on the back burner until there's a way to activate roundycorners in every browser with ''one'' codecall, rather than three to activate it in four browsers. A majority of our users use Firefox anyway, and the templates look just fine in IE and other browsers even without the roundy, so don't worry about it. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 00:12, 26 January 2010 (UTC)
::Too late for an answer, I know. At least, I understood somewhat better the reasons and hope that it becomes a standard the soonest possible because even though {{tt|I haven't been using Firefox for a while now|mainly Chrome because Opera 10.50 is beta}}, I miss the roundy corners. Fortunately, both Chrome and Opera (likely Safari as well) support them to an extent already, even here on the 'Pedia, so it's a good sign.

== Gold/Ethan ==

Really, why are you so stubborn about that Gold thing? That was never his officially official name. Those were just silly Gen. II booklets referring to him as such. But he didn't exist as NPC back then so all the names were just optional choices, there wasn't a real canon name for him at all. NPC names are the only 100% confirmed ones. And his NPC name is Ethan, not Gold. HGSS doesn't use "Gold" at all, not even as an optional choice. It annoys me how you keep comparing this to Red's situation. Red was a NPC in GSC already. And his NPC name was Red. "Ash" or "Jack" don't have anything to do with it - those are just optional choices that have never been used in a canon context in the games (aside from old Prima guides), calling Red "Ash" would make as much sense as calling May "Kimmy". This isn't really the case for Gold/Ethan. The only really confirmed name for him is Ethan. Even if GameFreak DID plan to name him "Gold" in Gen II times - they didn't really confirm it anywhere (booklets were made by USers, they're no proof). We just assumed "Gold" because of Red and Blue/Green. But since HGSS revealed his name as Ethan/Hibiki, that means it's his real name. It's not a retcon or a change, just a denial of our old (and widespread) assumption. It was obvious that they wouldn't change Red to "Ash" or anything. The name "Red" has been long confirmed and used in NPC context. It would be a blatant, nosense retcon. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 09:30, 3 February 2010 (UTC)

I really think that "Pocket Pikachu" should redirect to it, {{tt|but I don't exactly|I have no idea :(}} know how to do redirects. --[[User:Gen1king|''GEN'']]1[[User talk:Gen1king|KING]] 22:31, 13 February 2010 (UTC)

== Romanization or translation: which to use when ==

I just read the {{bp|Manual of style/Romanization|MOS/R}} but that didn't answer my question. For example, I've recently changed [[Mt. Chimney]]'s and [[Mt. Pyre]]'s Japanese names from translations to rōmaji because it seemed like someone had copy-pasted the English names. Thus, to avoid any undesirable edits in the future, what should be performed: translations or romanizations? Another reason why this is confusing is by contrasting these two articles I mentioned with [[Mt. Silver]]'s, whose Japanese name is indicated as Shirogane Mountain instead of Silverly-White Mountain (another reason why I changed Mt. Chimney's and Mt. Pyre's Japanese names to Entotsu Mountain and Oburiki Mountain, respectively). [[User:Pokemon lover|Pokemon lover]] 17:57, 14 February 2010 (UTC)
:Good point, we're actually not very consistent on either. What I think would be good would be to have it be {{tt|romanization|translation}}, sort of like how [[Mt. Moon|Otsukimi Yama]] has. '''[[User:TTEchidna|''TTE'']][[User talk:TTEchidna|chidna]]''' 19:58, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

What green tabs (disscusion, edit this page, etc.) can appear in all? Also, what do you call them? [[User:Abcboy|Abcboy]] 23:09, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

== Colors ==

I have noticed in a ton of pages, that instead of particular colors being named off in the coding, there are a set of numbers that tell it to show a color. Is there a page that can help me figure out this coding? If you don't know what I'm talking about, just look at your signature above. "C4E673" ends up being a shade of light, light green. Is there a page showing all of these codes or something? Thanks --'''[[User:Landfish7| Land]][[User talk:Landfish7|fish]]'''7 13:00, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
:These are hex codes. I'm not an expert, but if what I remember is correct, the first two digits represent the Red, the next two represent the Green and the final two represent the Blue. Together they can create any color you want. Every digit can go from zero to F (which, if you count, means 16 options for each digit.) There are plenty of programs you can use to find hex codes, I (and probably most people) use Photoshop. Hope that helps. --[[User:ElectAbuzzzz|'''electAbuzz''']][[User talk:ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']][[Special:Contributions/ElectAbuzzzz|'''z''']] 13:43, 15 February 2010 (UTC)
::What Buzz says is correct. That's a range of 256 for each of them, counting hexadecimally (meaning after 09, you go to 0A, and after 3F you go to 40). If you notice, the color templates (which we use mostly to keep our colors easily standardized, and change them quickly across a lot of pages if we decide to) are actually hexadecimal code themselves, with the only thing that is passed when the template is transcluded being the hexadecimal code for that color. See? {{template|red color}} is {{red color}}, the color we've chosen to represent {{game|Red}}. As for the light green in my signature, that's {{template|Bulba color}}, which we've chosen to represent Bulbagarden and Bulbapedia; signatures can't use templates so it auto-substs.
::As for a page that lists colors, Wikipedia's got a hexadecimal {{wp|list of colors}}, which has a bunch of nice ones, while there are [http://www.webmonkey.com/reference/Color_Charts several places] online where you can find the 216 web-safe (that's basically, differential enough for the human eye to distinguish between on a crappy computer) colors. Either way, don't go crazy with custom hex colors on BP; we like to keep ours quite standard so we can use them ''everywhere'' without much thought.

'''Quick Attack''' (Japanese: '''でんこうせっか''' ''Lightning Speed'') is a damage-dealing {{type2|Normal}} [[move]] introduced in [[Generation I]].

==Effect==
Quick Attack inflicts damage, and is an increased [[priority]] move. If the target does not use an increased priority move during the round that it is used, Quick Attack will go first regardless of the user's or target's speed.

If the target also uses a move with an increased priority of +1 during the same round that the user uses Quick Attack, the attack order of the users will be
determined normally.

If the user is put to {{Status|sleep}} or {{status|freeze|frozen}} during the round that Quick Attack is (or attempts to be) used, Quick Attack's increased speed priority will not be reset.
Subsequently, it will only be reset on the turn after the user wakes up or is defrosted, or if the user switches out.
