==Nugget==
Has Nugget any function other then being sold for a lot of money?[[User:Jacce|Jacce]] 17:27, 12 February 2008 (UTC)

I ''really'' want to add Japanese trivia of the Nugget, because it's an important in-joke of Japanese Pokemon fandom. But I also feel that it's inappropriate at the same time... --[[User:Kohei|Pizza]][[User talk:Kohei|man]] 13:07, 10 July 2008 (UTC)

::In Japanese, it's ''''kin no tama'''' (きんのたま、金の玉 lit. golden ball). It's also a colloquial term for testicles, and the man offering you his "testicles" is a frequent joke amongst Japanese fans, especially since how the protagonist is still an underage child and all. --[[User:Kohei|Pizza]][[User talk:Kohei|man]] 13:23, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

It says under Slowpoketail that
:"One key point of interest is when first introduced, the Team Rocket member mentions the Slowpoketail's value as a delicacy, being the first time that it's ever mentioned of the use of any Pokémon as an actual food (for human consumption), a rather controversial subject of what kind of creature is the contributor of meat (of any kind) in the Pokémon world"
but my friend pointed out that in one episode, I think [[EP049]], the Pokedex says that people find Farfetch'd delicious.[[User:Daihatsuboy|Daihatsuboy]] 02:02, 30 December 2008 (UTC)

:::I know I'm replying to old crap, but I was gonna mention this anyways: [[The Official Pokémon Handbook]] says that people think Farfetch'd is tasty served with leeks and that's why it's rare. :P [[User:Zesty Cactus|<span style="color:#006400">'''Zesty'''</span>]][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|<span style="color:#3CB371">'''Cactus'''</span>]] 21:16, 22 September 2009 (UTC)

::::Also in the episode when everyone is on the SS Anne it shows them talk about eating a Magikarp. This has happened in many different episodes before Gen II even came out so the statement of "One key point of interest is when first introduced, the Team Rocket member mentions the Slowpoketail's value as a delicacy, being the first time that it's ever mentioned of the use of any Pokémon as an actual food (for human consumption), a rather controversial subject of what kind of creature is the contributor of meat (of any kind) in the Pokémon world. This is also the first time that Pokémon cruelty is mentioned explicitly." is totally wrong. It should be removed completely since its false.--[[User:Lycos Ex Mortis|Lycos Ex Mortis]] 05:57, 10 March 2010 (UTC)

== Gold Nugget ==

"In Generation IV it is officially announced that nuggets are made of gold, though the Generation III sprite revealed this beforehand."

I remember reading in Generation II, when you select a Nugget (and the description is below), that it says, "Made of pure gold. Sells high". So I would think that the info about Gen IV is wrong. --[[User:Dr. James|Dr. James]] 04:03, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

== pearl -> big pearl ==

On route 20 a swimmer asks if pearls grow bigger inside Cloyster.  Do pearls turn into big pearls if you give them to a Cloyster to hold for long enough? --[[User:Jared|Jared]] 20:14, 30 September 2009 (UTC)

== Tiny + Big Mushrooms in RSE? ==

I noticed that the sections for the Tiny and Big Mushrooms don't have any information whatsoever regarding their existance in RSE.  It appears as though the mushrooms don't exist in RSE, as they neither have any Bag caption information nor any location information.  I belive that this should be rectified as soon as would be convinient. --[[User:Alex S.|Alex S.]] 05:56, 15 May 2010 (UTC)
:Well, I forgot to mention this here after I changed it, but by looking through all of our articles on Hoenn locations, I found that Tiny Mushrooms may be found hidden in [[Petalburg Woods]]. Big Mushrooms must be traded. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 08:32, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

== Price of a Nugget? ==

It sold for {{pdollar}}5000 in the games after Gen.1. How do we include that in the article? [[User:Ztobor|Ztobor]] 19:14, 13 July 2010 (UTC)
:I found a parameter hidden in [[Template:Item]] that gave sell notes, so I used that. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 08:32, 14 July 2010 (UTC)

== Mushrooms ==

I know that this may be a dumb question, but do Big/TinyMushrooms have any use outside of FRLG? [[User:Pawsrent|Pawsrent]] 21:27, 5 August 2010 (UTC)
:Sell it? That's... pretty much it. &mdash;'''<span style="font-family:Verdana"><span style="color:#000">darklord</span>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<span style="color:#0047AB">trom</span>]]</span>''' 11:28, 6 August 2010 (UTC)

== New Gen V valuable items and jokes ==

There is already a trivia entry for nugget (きんのたま ''kin no tama''), but it looks there are more jokes about valuable items, including mushrooms and pearls. While reading the comments in [http://zeark969.blog38.fc2.com/blog-entry-1828.html this page] (its in japanese), specially the 46th comment, I've found that the newly introduced items かおるきのこ (''kaoru kinoko'' Fragrant Mushroom) and おだんごしんじゅ (''odango shinju'' Dango Pearl) hide some kind of meaning. Also, there's a new "Huge Nugget" (でかいきんのたま ''dekai kin no tama''). Please, someone with better proficiency in japanese should check this. --[[User:Blow|<span style="color:blue">Blow</span>]] '''([[User talk:Blow|<span style="color:green">話す</span>]])''' 15:52, 14 November 2010 (UTC)

== Mart-sellable items that can be sold to collectors for more? ==

I keep coming to Bulbapedia, hoping to find information about whether a particular valuable item can be sold for a higher price than what PokeMarts will buy it for, but I can never find the information easily. I know Tiny Mushrooms and Big Mushrooms can be sold for a great deal more money to the maid in the trailer west of Nimbasa, Star Pieces can be traded to a guy in Anville Town, and I feel like I've read somewhere on a different article that Pretty Wings can be sold to a collector as well. Shouldn't there be some indication of alternate uses/buyers in this article? --[[User:The Almighty Doer of Stuff|The Almighty Doer of Stuff]] 17:10, 26 April 2011 (UTC)

== Selling to Collectors ==

Article needs to contain info on where the collectors of certain sell-able items can be found (or maybe an entire page for them) <small>- ''unsigned comment from {{u|Bort}} ([[User talk:Bort|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/Bort|contribs]]) 21:54, May 1, 2011''</small>

== Alignment ==

Is there any particular reason the "introduced in" column is misaligned?  --[[User:Politoed666|<span style="color:#00B7EB">''P''</span> <span style="color:#008080">''o''</span>]] [[User talk:Politoed666|<span style="color:#0095B6">''L''</span> <span style="color:#00CCCC">''i''</span>]] 20:22, 21 January 2012 (UTC)
:Because they're separate tables. It's very difficult to set separate tables so that all the cells will be in the same place and the same width without specifying a pixel width, which would make it look really small on some monitors and stretch the page on others. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 04:58, 22 January 2012 (UTC)
