ARCHIVE THIS TALK PAGE, IMMEDIATELY! Template:Type effectiveness Can you take a look at this template, to see if it's good for the mainspace, when more information for the Fairy type is released? Thanks. — Reshi643 19:55, 2 August 2013 (UTC) I took a look and it looks good to me. I'll have a few other staff members look over it as well for good measure. --Pokemaster97 20:13, 2 August 2013 (UTC) User:CM Punk I think that that username may break the impersonation rule. CM Punk is a professional wrestler. --It's Funktastic~!話してください 21:16, 6 August 2013 (UTC) Hmm, you're right. I'll take care of it. --Pokemaster97 00:02, 7 August 2013 (UTC) Evolution page If you haven't already, you might want to protect the Evolution page as well. Yamitora1 (talk) 16:05, 8 August 2013 (UTC) Thank you for the heads up. That has now been protected as well. --Pokemaster97 16:11, 8 August 2013 (UTC) Mawile Please remove last trivia about Mawile. - unsigned comment from Viv (talk • contribs) Removed. --Pokemaster97 16:56, 8 August 2013 (UTC) Game Systems There any many emulators of Nintendo Gaming Systems. Shouldn't Bulbapedia have a small article about that since users play Pokemon Games on their PCs too ? PikaTepig999 (talk) 10:14, 15 August 2013 (UTC) The use of emulators and ROMs are a copyright violation and are used for illegal gameplay of Pokémon games, something that Bulbapedia or Bulbagarden as a whole, shouldn't be promoting. --Pokemaster97 15:15, 15 August 2013 (UTC) The only emulator that we could talk about would be the emulator used by the Virtual Console. (Even then, the only games that are related to the Pokémon series are Pokémon Snap, Pokémon Puzzle League, and Super Smash Bros.) --Super goku (talk) 16:49, 15 August 2013 (UTC) Congrats! Congratulations on completing your 3 years on Bulbapedia!!--Viv (talk) 15:19, 17 August 2013 (UTC) Thank you :) --Pokemaster97 15:53, 17 August 2013 (UTC) Upload file I created an art work of the national pokedex on Pokemon.com (in windows paint ). Can you upload it to the National Pokédex page ? It will be a help for viewers. PikaTepig999 (talk) 13:02, 21 August 2013 (UTC) It can be found at http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/File:National_pokedex.png PikaTepig999 (talk) 13:03, 21 August 2013 (UTC) That page seems rather condensed already with the two pictures we currently have, so I don't think adding a third would be the best idea. --Pokemaster97 14:16, 21 August 2013 (UTC) Editing question Sorry to bother you, but I need to know how to post my favorite song on my namespace to where it don't look confusing. - unsigned comment from Pnjfandubs (talk • contribs) I'm going to to need a little more information in order for me to try to help. Are trying to post it as a link? In an infobox? However, you've exceeded your userspace editing for the day, so I suggest that you hold off until tomorrow before trying to add more. --Pokemaster97 00:37, 30 August 2013 (UTC) Editing request Can you edit my userspace to where the text about me is in the right place, and that my favorite song shows? My favorite song is Pokémon Ondo. PNJスターデオの月山ニ郎 (talk) 03:25, 27 September 2013 (UTC) Well, actually, you wouldn't have my favorite song here, but it's my favorite as far as Pokémon music. PNJスターデオの月山ニ郎 (talk) 03:31, 27 September 2013 (UTC) I fixed the text, but I wasn't sure what you meant by your favorite song, so I left that part out. --Pokemaster97 20:01, 27 September 2013 (UTC) Jessie's Woobat Why is the trivia being taken down? - unsigned comment from Rahl (talk • contribs) Other editors have given reasons such as "she has all of four Pokemon with confirmed genders, though it's not really necessary to note on this page regardless" and it being "too obvious". --Pokemaster97 23:00, 29 September 2013 (UTC) Okay then explain about Emolga's trivia being the only confirmed female in Iris's team. - unsigned comment from Rahl (talk • contribs) It'd be best to ask the users who reverted you, since they were the ones who removed the trivia in question. Or, read the history of the page where all the edit summaries are listed. Also, please remember to sign with ~~~~. --Pokemaster97 00:25, 30 September 2013 (UTC) Ok thanks.- unsigned comment from Rahl (talk • contribs) New unimportantly Pokémon-related page I added I'm surprised y'all haven't deleted and warned me about Pokémon Dubstep. - unsigned comment from Pnjfandubs (talk • contribs) It's one thing to create a bad article while trying to contribute the site, but it's another to knowingly create a bad article and taunt the administration about it. You're beginning to skate on thin ice with the unnotable fanpages and blatant advertising. I suggest stopping the behavior before it's too late. --Pokemaster97 01:08, 30 September 2013 (UTC) "and taunt the administration about it": I didn't know that was taunting. Also, I didn't exactly know how to write it well. By the way, no one ever put my favorite song (Pokémon Ondo) on my userspace! PNJスターデオの月山ニ郎 (talk) 03:22, 30 September 2013 (UTC) Thanks Thanks for the tip! =) Marioiscool765 (talk) 02:36, 31 October 2013 (UTC) No prob! --Pokemaster97 02:50, 31 October 2013 (UTC) Thank you. Thanks for telling me. -- unsigned comment from FSGP (talk • contribs) That Talk Page HP Bar So, I've seen this on alot of user talk pages around here, and I have not been able to figure it out. Perhaps you can explain to me how that bar works and how to implement one of my own? Because I am really curious about that. Schiffy (Speak to me|What I've done) 00:27, 11 November 2013 (UTC) It's basically a template that's built to decrease as your talk page fills up (though there are versions where you can manually update the number as well). The best example I can show you is here. Kinda hard to explain exactly how it works, but that's an example of the coding for it, I'm sure you could probably manipulate it to personalize it to your liking. I hope this helps, I'm not the best with explaining templates and such. --Pokemaster97 00:38, 11 November 2013 (UTC) Espurr I thought I was undoing Pokemon nomekop's edit, but it seemed I wasn't and I didn't notice that...and then I tried to just use a previous version of the page and it got an error... So I'll leave that to others now. =( Sorry. Tiddlywinks (talk) 02:47, 28 November 2013 (UTC) I figured it was just an accident, I got a little confused there for a minute. No need to worry. --Pokemaster97 02:48, 28 November 2013 (UTC) I actually see what happened. Your edit had the same timestamp, but even though (by its ID) it occurred later, it was listed below Pokemon nomekop's, so I thought his was most recent and tried to undo it and...actually, I don't really know how that ended up restoring his edit then, but yeah... Still, I didn't actually check the page, I was just looking at contribs/history. Oops. Tiddlywinks (talk) 02:55, 28 November 2013 (UTC) Hmmm, pretty weird. I guess we blame Bulbapedia then :p --Pokemaster97 02:59, 28 November 2013 (UTC) Userpage How many edits do I need to make before I am allowed a user page? Heavyslamaggron (talk) 03:52, 3 December 2013 (UTC) The number to become autoconfirmed is unspecified in order to prevent people from abusing the system and editing just enough to create a userpage. Continue editing and you'll be able to create your userpage in no time. --Pokemaster97 03:59, 3 December 2013 (UTC) Thank you sir! Heavyslamaggron (talk) 04:00, 3 December 2013 (UTC) Question on Name Origin Policies and Disputes A Name Origin dispute has occurred on the Aggron page between myself and Relicant. Boss is already listed as one of the possible derivatives of the name Bossgodora. I put that the god in Bossgodora could derive from "Godfather" which beyond meaning a crime boss also has less "Tony, the don says take him for a ride and give him a pair cement shoes" meanings. However, Relicant repeatedly undid the edit, saying he did not see it and did not further deliberate on it. Anyways, what is the best course of action in this dispute? I tried looking for the policies page but I am not the most tech-savy and couldn't navigate the site to find it. Even if i did, I am afraid I am also not the best when it comes to reading what I suspect would be a confusing wall of text. I am vaguely sure if I were to undo their edit again it would violate a policy (not sure, I just vaguely have memory of a three-edit limit on something) Well, I'm off to warm up my new 2DS before charging it (again, not a tech-savey person but I am pretty sure it being freezing cold from the UPS truck, its not a good idea to plug it in right away) -cheers! Yamitora1 (talk) 19:37, 9 December 2013 (UTC) The best and most immediate action would be to bring up the dispute on the talk page and discuss your reasoning for including it, so others can have a chance to comment their opinions on it as well, then see how that goes before deciding whether or not to add it to the page again. It'd be wise not to add it back anymore for now as an additional revision would be getting into edit war territory. There's no real policy specifically for Name Origin sections (If I'm recalling correctly), we just try to use our best judgement in that area. I hope this helps and let me know if you're having any more issues with this. --Pokemaster97 19:45, 9 December 2013 (UTC) Archive? Just a quick question. What does archive mean? I kinda don't really know what that means. Can you explain that to me of what mean. Also, I apologize for removing that comments on my talk page, I forgot that It was one of the rules of not to do that on my talk page, It was my mistake. Thanks for reminding me, I won't remove them anymore again. Marioiscool765 (talk) 23:46, 18 December 2013 (UTC) You can archive your talk page by clicking the move tab, then renaming your talk page "User talk:Marioiscool1765/Archive 1" or something along those lines. You may then start new with the original, (just remove the redirect link once you're complete). Let me know if you have any further questions. --Pokemaster97 23:58, 18 December 2013 (UTC) Rather than removing the redirect link, convert it to a regular link - there must be a way to get from your current talk page to any archives without searching (i.e. by following links). Werdnae (talk) 02:29, 19 December 2013 (UTC) Editing for blocked users Well, what do you know... I thought it was okay to do it if it was unrelated to the reason of blocking. I'm sorry, it won't happen again. --Gabo 2oo (talk) 04:31, 20 December 2013 (UTC) My2ndaccount That username might mean a sockpuppet of the original one or the user might have created a first one in another site. I'll let you decide on that since I don't have the authority to determine if the username is bad or not. PattyMan 05:16, 30 December 2013 (UTC) I had a word with them. --Pokemaster97 16:46, 30 December 2013 (UTC) More Images for articles I have some more images I took in game for articles if needed. The Pokemon League Building Exterior http://www.4shared.com/photo/k0BDEUXN/HNI_0040.html Tower of Mastery Exterior http://www.4shared.com/photo/cQkFkkYI/HNI_0041.html And a picture of that big ol hole left by the ultimate weapon. http://www.4shared.com/photo/5-fvaPFq/HNI_0039.html I'm not sure if they're needed, but here they are all the same. Cheers! Yamitora1 (talk) 10:12, 31 December 2013 (UTC) I'll talk to the other staff and see if we can find a place for them. --Pokemaster97 20:07, 31 December 2013 (UTC) I'm sorry if I bothered you I was just trying to help out. like I said, they are just there if needed or wanted. Yamitora1 (talk) 22:52, 31 December 2013 (UTC) You didn't bother me, I was just dealing with an difficult Archives situation during the time I replied. Don't ever be afraid to talk to the staff about anything. --Pokemaster97 23:00, 31 December 2013 (UTC) Oh I seem well as long as everything was alright between you and me. Cheers and happy new years! ^_^ Yamitora1 (talk) 23:05, 31 December 2013 (UTC) Oval Charm redirect Every time I type in Oval Charm, I am automatically taken to List of key items in Generation V The item is also listed as a Gen V exclusive despite it being available in the Gen VI games. Is this suppose to be, or should this be changed? Yamitora1 (talk) 05:50, 19 January 2014 (UTC) Yeah, that's definitely something that should be fixed. I want to talk to G50 about it to see what she thinks we should do with them since she the project items leader. Thank you for bringing it to my attention though. --Pokemaster97 21:18, 19 January 2014 (UTC) Typos Do you see any other typos because a user has its own typo subpage. --Cinday123 (Talk) 22:20, 24 January 2014 (UTC) I don't see any typos at the moment, but if I see any, I'll be sure to add them. --Pokemaster97 22:24, 24 January 2014 (UTC) ?8 Pokemaster97, the user ?8 has more than three userspace edits, will you warn this user about the userspace policy? --Cinday123 (Talk) 00:57, 27 January 2014 (UTC) Message left. --Pokemaster97 01:01, 27 January 2014 (UTC) Mystery Dungeon items Can I make a request to have Gracidea in the {{Mystery Dungeon items}} template be changed to Gracidea, so that it isn't linked to a redirect? — Reshi643 02:31, 27 January 2014 (UTC) Looks like Funktastic took care of it. Thanks for bringing it to my attention though. --Pokemaster97 02:36, 27 January 2014 (UTC) Thanks Thanks for deleting those pages I made by mistake where I put a {{subst:welcome}} and should have been put in the talk page. Sorry about that. ----Ethan (Discussion) 03:41, 31 January 2014 (UTC) No need to worry, it happens. :p --Pokemaster97 04:05, 31 January 2014 (UTC) I'd like to upload or replace a image, but I can't figure out how. I want to upload a new version of a:File:Missingno_glitch_walking_players.png, but I don't quite know how. It says I need to be autoconfirmed, but if I can't upload images how do I edit the pages there and become autoconfirmed? Or is it autoconfirmed anywhere on the wiki? --Pokechu22 (talk) 19:05, 13 February 2014 (UTC) Firstly, all image uploads are handled on the Bulbagarden Archives. You can become autoconfirmed by editing pages and helping out with small tasks on both the Archives and Bulbapedia (though they're separate, so being autoconfirmed on one doesn't necessarily equal being autoconfirmed on the other. Another factor is how new to the site you are. Since it looks like you only just registered, you're going to have to spend a little more time editing first before you can become autoconfirmed. I hope I explained things alright for you. --Pokemaster97 19:16, 13 February 2014 (UTC) That's a fairly good explanation, thanks. But what kinds of things would you edit on the archives? Typos? Tagging? Categorizing? --Pokechu22 (talk) 19:29, 13 February 2014 (UTC) Yeah, that's pretty much the gist of it. --Pokemaster97 19:34, 13 February 2014 (UTC) When you are autoconfirmed, is there a email sent? Pokechu22 (talk) 20:10, 13 February 2014 (UTC) To be quite honest, I don't remember, it's been quite some time since I've been autoconfirmed. You can check by clicking on your preferences, it should say "autoconfirmed user" under your groups. --Pokemaster97 20:28, 13 February 2014 (UTC) Ah, thanks. Right now it says "users" and "emailconfirmed", I'm assuming that "emailconfirmed" is separate. Thanks for your help! --Pokechu22 (talk) 20:30, 13 February 2014 (UTC) Just wanted to note that I never got anything about being autoconfirmed on any bulbawiki site. It just happens. --It's Funktastic~!話してください 20:42, 13 February 2014 (UTC) Pardon the intrusion, but no, there is no email sent or anything. My account on archives was only recently placed into that group. Like Funk said, it just happens. Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (Talk Contribs) 22:51,2/13/2014 (UTC) Ok, another question: What images should I tag as jpg? Is there any case where it is ok for a image to be a jpg or gif? --Pokechu22 (talk) 20:44, 14 February 2014 (UTC) "Stock artwork should be saved as .jpg, except when the background is transparent, in which case .png is preferred." Scans are also acceptable as .jpgs, but pngs are preferred where available. --Pokemaster97 22:00, 14 February 2014 (UTC) Ok, that makes sense. --Pokechu22 (talk) 22:26, 14 February 2014 (UTC) One more thing: While I still haven't been autoconfirmed, I am email confirmed, and according to Special:ListGroupRights on archives (that's a external link due to my inability to figure out interwiki links), I should be able to upload images. But when I try to, I get this error message: You do not have permission to create new pages. Is this intentional or a bug? --Pokechu22 (talk) 22:26, 14 February 2014 (UTC) While the original settings intended for email confirmed users to be able to upload, it's been set so you cannot until you have the additional autoconfirm right. The Autoconfirm right " Create pages (which are not discussion pages) (createpage)", so that may be overriding the uploading aspect because pages are created during uploads. --Pokemaster97 22:41, 14 February 2014 (UTC) Pokemonmysterysolver Pokemaster97, Pokemonmysterysolver is not following the Manual of style a few minutes ago. --Cinday123 (Talk) 23:07, 14 February 2014 (UTC) It looks like they haven't done anything else incorrectly for the time being. If it continues I'll talk to them. --Pokemaster97 23:11, 14 February 2014 (UTC) I should add to this that before contacting you, Cinday123 left a message on this user's talk page that she would move to have them blocked over bad spelling/grammar/punctuation without checking to see if that was even something that a user can be blocked for first..... Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (Talk Contribs) 23:19,2/14/2014 (UTC) I didn't do it, I improved edits according to the Manual of Style. --Cinday123 (Talk) 23:23, 14 February 2014 (UTC) "Please read the Manual of style, you're using Pokemon without an e-acute instead of Pokémon and not using capital letters at the beginning and full stops at the end, if you don't improve your edits, I'll contact an admin and block you. --Cinday123 (Talk) 22:56, 14 February 2014 (UTC)" - this is the message you left on this user's talk page. You really have to stop issuing warnings to users as if you were staff, as you attempted to do to me twice only one month ago, without first understanding the nature of the issue and not listening when I explained it. Schiffy (瀬藤健二) (Talk Contribs) 23:24,2/14/2014 (UTC) See? Now I stopped issuing other users, now I'll have to talk about Diancie, and I already followed the Manual of style. --Cinday123 (Talk) 23:28, 14 February 2014 (UTC) Twitch I actually do use the preview button. I edit the article very rapidly because it's an ongoing event with a lot of potential for change in a small period of time (that sounds ironic, given the nature of Twitch). Philosophical-Psychological Informist Togekiss (talk) 04:25, 21 February 2014 (UTC) That's understandable. At one of the edits I happened to look at it was you changing "Poke" -> "Poké", which I thought was a result of rushing and not previewing. Sorry for misunderstanding. --Pokemaster97 04:52, 21 February 2014 (UTC) Images not updating? Hello. A while ago, I uploaded a new version of a:file:Missingno_glitch_walking_players.png. On the archives the file has updated, but it has not for the image on the main site. It has been around a week, and the file still has not changed. Is this normal? What is the time I should expect? Is there something I should do? --Pokechu22 (talk) 06:37, 2 March 2014 (UTC) Images on Bulbapedia are served via a content delivery network, which can result in files updating slower than expected. Images should update within 24 hours, but problems can happen which may cause a file to take longer. If you notice an image hasn't updated after 24 hours, please let me know on my talk page. I've manually purged the file you've reported here, and it should display properly now. If it isn't, try hard refreshing the file page on Bulbapedia. If it still displays incorrectly, let me know. Thanks - Kogoro - Talk to me - 10:14, 2 March 2014 (UTC) Further indent on my comment on a talk page Just so it is clear (if it wasn't), I was replying not directly to you, but the comment you replied to. Is it preferred to use the comment "thread" form which you changed it to (I shall call IRC-style) over something like Reddit-style (which I had done, and you changed away from)? Just want to know for the future. --TruePikachu (talk) 23:16, 2 March 2014 (UTC) It's preferred to indent all comments further than the last. We try to do this so talk pages don't look like one wall of text and it's easier to see where one comment finishes and the other one starts. --Pokemaster97 23:18, 2 March 2014 (UTC) Wondering What? You agree with Force Fire? Well I Think Force Fire is the one that's wrong, not me. Because I saw this episode about a few years ago and I said that Lick was used in Princess vs Princess and putting lick as unknown doesn't count. If you won't believe then find the episode online to prove it.----JasonL 22:41, 23 March 2014 (UTC) It's not just Force Fire, it's SnorlaxMonster and Dennou Zenshi as well. I'm more concerned with you edit warring. If you have an issue, the best thing to do is take the issue to a talk page and discuss it there, not constantly undo everyone who tries disagrees with you. Another note, your signature is in violation of the Signature policy, all signatures must link to either your talk page, or your userpage. Please try to get this corrected when you have the chance. --Pokemaster97 02:44, 24 March 2014 (UTC) Well now I'm confused now because now I don't know if Lickitung uses Lick for real because seeing the move Lick as unknown doesn't count as an episode and I don't see Lick in the anime move error. --JasonL 22:55, 25 March 2014 (UTC) You can find the result on this talk page. PattyMan 23:19, 25 March 2014 (UTC) Regarding the move from Daz to Dolan I moved it from Daz to Dolan because of what I was told here. Is there anyway you or another staff member add that rule to the manual of style so that there wouldn't be anymore rule conflicts such as what happened with Georgia's and Lyra's talk page, as well as with Morana's and Nanette's regarding pokemon.com's reliability with the names? PattyMan 02:21, 3 April 2014 (UTC) I'd like to talk to pass it by Kenji-girl before I add it, but I can definitely look into getting it added. --Pokemaster97 02:32, 3 April 2014 (UTC) Ok then. It was just upsetting for me when one side told me about doing something, only for it to not be true when I actually did it, such as the moving of dub names prior to today. PattyMan 02:58, 3 April 2014 (UTC) Juice Shoppe I wonder if you didn't notice my new comment on the Lumiose City talk page about how I updated my Juice Shoppe page to attempt to address your concerns. I'm eager to learn how successful I was. =) Tiddlywinks (talk) 01:00, 23 April 2014 (UTC) Sorry for missing the message on that talk page. The page is a bit over-focused on the juice mechanics, but that can certainly be improved on later. I'll talk to Kogoro and hopefully it can be moved before the end of the month. Please do continue editing and tweaking it though. --Pokemaster97 03:57, 23 April 2014 (UTC) Posts tagged with "bad formatting"? A few of my posts (for instance, edits on Missingno) are tagged as "bad formatting". When the edit was made, I was warend about formating as well, but no formating was used on such pages other than < br>, < !--, and < refernces/>. Am I not supposed to use < br>? Because it was included in the page before hand. --Pokechu22 (talk) 05:18, 4 May 2014 (UTC) I'm afraid I'm not sure to be completely honest with you. Try asking Kogoro, she could probably give you a more accurate answer than I can. --Pokemaster97 19:15, 4 May 2014 (UTC) Image Help Hi I'm new at editing stuff here at bulbapedia and could you help me by uploading these two images: [1] [2] early thanks.User:Animaltamer708:14, 25 May 2014 (UTC) I'm not that comfortable dealing with manga related things, so I think it may be better for you to talk to Ataro or Zesty Cactus instead. --Pokemaster97 14:33, 25 May 2014 (UTC) ok.Animaltamer705:30, 26 May 2014 (UTC) My userpage Hi, Pokemaster97. I'm very new to this site and I can't edit my userpage. Everytime I attempt to edit it, it always say these reasons: You do not have permission to edit pages in the User namespace. If you are a new user, you will need to edit existing articles before you can edit your userpage. You do not have permission to create new pages. On the first one, I edited at least one of the pages on the site, but it was still locked. I've already read the userpage policy but I feel like my problem didn't fit to the four reasons listed there. Plus, I already confirmed my account via e-mail. UnitedDestiny (talk) 11:27, 31 May 2014 (UTC) While you may be email confirmed to Bulbapedia, it doesn't automatically mean that you're autoconfirmed. A certain amount of edits in combination with the amount of time you've been on the site is required before the system recognizes you as autoconfirmed. If you continue to edit regularly, you should be able to edit your userpage soon. --Pokemaster97 18:07, 31 May 2014 (UTC) Protection Request Could you put both Sceptile and Swampert's pages under lockdown for now at least until the scans have been confirmed as official since I did some users try to update Septiles pages. You could also lockdown the pages of their pre-evolutions as well to be on the safe side.-Tyler53841 (talk) 02:36, 8 June 2014 (UTC) The pages have been protected. --Pokemaster97 02:41, 8 June 2014 (UTC) Thanks. This kind of situation was inevitable so there was really no choice in this matter but anyway glad you could help.-Tyler53841 (talk) 02:43, 8 June 2014 (UTC) Oh and also for the moves and Abilities that the Pokémon were revealed to have such as Lightning Rod, Swift Swim, and Hammer Arm. PattyMan 02:49, 8 June 2014 (UTC) I think those would be okay as is for now. If it becomes an issue, we can take care of it then. --Pokemaster97 02:59, 8 June 2014 (UTC) Transformation is No More The Mega Evolution is transformation was no more.

TheShinyRoggenrola (talk) 15:19, 30 June 2014 (UTC) I'm pretty sure you have to edit the watermark out of the picture using a photo editing software. I've never actually done it myself, so I can't be much help unfortunately. --Pokemaster97 18:41, 30 June 2014 (UTC) Version Tags User:WATERWARRIOR67 is categorized as a Version Tag. --☆Tavisource 04:59, 28 July 2014 (UTC) I was able to correct the problem. --Pokemaster97 16:58, 28 July 2014 (UTC) Code Lyoko You wrote that Your favourite anime is Code Lyoko. But... Code Lyoko isn't anime, it's cartoon, like Avatar: The Legend of Aang or The Legend of Korra. ;) Asmod96 (talk) 18:28, 8 August 2014 (UTC) I guess it's not technically an anime, but I didn't see a tag for regular cartoons, so I just used that one =p --Pokemaster97 18:33, 8 August 2014 (UTC) Learnset Template error Ok so I recently discovered the form=mega tag, where it makes the legend read "Italic indicates a move that gets STAB only when used by a Mega Evolution of <Pokémon>" So I started adding it to the Pokémon who now have Mega Evolution, so that their articles would properly reflect this change if appropriate. However, I noticed that if there are no moves that a Pokémon would get stab for while in a Mega evolved state, the legend will read "Italic indicates a move that gets STAB only when used by an evolution of <Pokémon>" I thought I would bring the issue up since this could be misleading to less knowledgeable editors and readers.

Sorry if this isn't the place to be asking, but you were the only staff member I remember talking to back when I used to be a member and I thought you might be the best person to ask. Ki (talk) 17:35, 7 December 2014 (UTC) Hey there, since we're in the midst of the ORAS release, adding any info you know/have about that would always be welcome. If not, I always find this category to be helpful for trying to find things to do/fix/improve. Another place you could help out with is adding/expanding info about any side series games you may have as well as those don't always get as much attention as others. Hope some of these suggestions would be of help to you. Enjoy your time here! --Pokemaster97 20:13, 7 December 2014 (UTC) Thanks, I'll get to work on some stubs if I can find anything relevant to add. And if you ever need someone to do something, I'm your guy, I'm fine with doing anything that higher-ups here don't have time to deal with. Well, you know, if that ever happens. Ki (talk) 22:07, 7 December 2014 (UTC) Could I edit this page? http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Talk:Disputed_Pok%C3%A9mon#Some_Disputed_Pokemon_Hats_in_Mcworld_.28maybe.29 I wanted to edit the Disputed Pokemon since these were from Mcworld.com pokemon were along with a Pikachu Hat and I need permission from Bulbapedia Staff.--ThePokeDigiFan (talk) 20:57, 10 December 2014 (UTC) Account creations I'm not sure this is the appropriate talk page, since you're the closest staff I could contact. Anyway, I noticed there were large amounts of account creations today, sometimes one after another. Either it's a coincidence or it's sockpuppeting. Does this rate of account creations normal? Safyire[Talk] 07:39, 12 December 2014 (UTC) These accounts are most likely spam accounts that have managed to get through the spam filter. We typically leave them be unless they start editing and creating spam pages. --Pokemaster97 21:35, 12 December 2014 (UTC) User subpage creation Could you do me a favor and take the content you removed from my talk page and make a subpage in my userspace for me? I don't have permissions to create subpages in my userspace. EliteFourScott (talk) 04:15, 29 December 2014 (UTC) It's against the rules to ask other users to make a userpage for you as well. You'll have to continue editing articles until you the system automatically gives you permission to edit your userspace. The data can still be found under the history tab of your talk page though so you can copy it over later. --Pokemaster97 04:21, 29 December 2014 (UTC) Yes, I've read some of the userspace guidelines now. It looks like the three edit per day rule will render my intentions moot anyway. Still, I'd like to chip in some edits since I've gotten so much useful info from this wiki. Are there any "help wanted" sections where I might find useful places to edit? Most of the mainspace pages seem pretty polished, so I'm not really sure where to look to contribute. EliteFourScott (talk) 04:26, 29 December 2014 (UTC) Just to add, you can only edit your userpage once you've made a certain amount of mainspace edits. Of which you have made... 0.--ForceFire 04:24, 29 December 2014 (UTC) Sorry to butt in! If you're looking for areas that need help, you can always search the Projects to-do lists and ongoing tasks, there's also Stubs, Articles needing improvement and Articles needing more information. Those are always great places to browse if you're looking to contribute :) --ZestyCactus 05:19, 29 December 2014 (UTC) Hey Thought I'd let you know that Hyperspace Fury is now there if you wanted to move-protect it as well, given you protected the other quintet. CycloneGU (talk) 15:25, 14 January 2015 (UTC) Thank you for mentioning it, I've handled it. --Pokemaster97 17:09, 14 January 2015 (UTC) Question Regarding List of routes Why is the directional layout not North, South, East, West instead of splitting North and South to opposite ends of the table? Many Routes are either north/south or east/west, so I imagine changing it to that format would be a better format. I'm presuming there's a reason they were split? CycloneGU (talk) 23:47, 18 January 2015 (UTC) I'm honestly not sure why the directions were ordered that way, it seems to have been that way from before I even joined Bulbapedia. I can certainly investigate the matter though. --Pokemaster97 23:58, 18 January 2015 (UTC) What I might do is prep a version with the N/S/E/W ordering in the event that the change can be done. I'll put it in userspace for now if I do that. If there's no objection, we can then take it straight from there to the page later. CycloneGU (talk) 00:12, 19 January 2015 (UTC) Upon looking into it, the directions are in the same order as they appear, vertically, on the route infobox: North on top, then East & West in the middle, and finally South on the bottom. I don't think it's something that necessarily needs to be "Fixed", as it doesn't really impact the understanding of the table. --Pokemaster97 00:45, 19 January 2015 (UTC) Ah, so that's why. However, I think human understanding of how directions pertain to each other gives possible benefit to North and South being located next to each other. Do you think it would cause a conflict if I took it upon myself to set the tables that way? CycloneGU (talk) 00:54, 19 January 2015 (UTC) If you make a mock up in your userspace, we can take a look at it and possibly mainspace it if they're are no staff objections. --Pokemaster97 01:09, 19 January 2015 (UTC) I'll do that then. Maybe I'll do that tomorrow as it's almost bedtime here, but depending on how easy it is done, it might be up shortly. CycloneGU (talk) 07:20, 19 January 2015 (UTC) [Outdent] Yup, looks like it will be complicated. Because each line uses a template and the template puts North first, all Route entries for north1 are working while everything else - well - isn't (east1, west1, and south1 are failing ATM). This means I'll need to create a new version of the template to possibly accomodate the changes. Therefore, when I create the user page, ignore the fact that it will be not showing correct links to numbered Routes within the table; when I create a mock template and link to that in the userspace version (a change I'll make later, since I'll want a history version that keeps the proper references for copying), I predict it would be proven to still work, therefore allowing South to switch places under a modified template. The current template is the only thing preventing the change, so this will take more work than I envosioned, but it still seems easy to do. One of my source ideas is putting the north1, etc. at the end of the code, after the region, to make it easier for other editors looking at the code, and that's a change I can do on the existing page anyway, but I'll try doing a new version first; besides, the amount of editing needed on the page should be minimal. I'm also adding New Mauville (Route 110), which is missing on the current version; if Scorched Slab can appear for 120, so can New Mauville for 110. CycloneGU (talk) 08:27, 19 January 2015 (UTC) All set and working: Template Page List of routes in my userspace For explanatory purposes, the associated talk page where I describe what I'm doing and also, for my own notes, list things that I've changed aside from updating the tables (so I can go add them myself at any time). I tested my template on the Kanto Route 9 entry via preview and it changed the Route 10 link to Kanto Route 10, so the modified template is working with my version of the page (but would break the current page, obviously, so any merge/move is all or none). I'm going to do a directional review of the games I know - which is pretty much anything outside of Sinnoh ATM, haven't really played them to completion - and make more corrections aside from a couple I already made, and also double check for any errors in arranging columns outside of any changes I make. I thought of changing East and West around as well, but decided that East is thought of first, so left that (one would say "North, South, East, West", not "North, South, West, East"). Any thoughts in the meantime? CycloneGU (talk) 19:22, 19 January 2015 (UTC) Sorry for the late response. I think things are looking good for the most part. Contact one of the staff when you believe that you have tested and made everything perfect. --Pokemaster97 00:42, 22 January 2015 (UTC) Can do. I've returned to working on my other project that is currently ongoing for a bit, that of the rematch data in OR/AS. I'm five Badges into the research. Wow, this is a long task. =) I have another editor following behind me assisting in data verification' because of that, I feel compelled to finish that project before doing List of routes to its conclusion. I think it's done anyway, I just want to do some analysis on it before saying such. CycloneGU (talk) 01:18, 22 January 2015 (UTC) Request(s) for deletion... As the most recent person in the deletion log, I'd like to ask you to delete a few things... First, I made a list at Talk:Cheri berry a while ago that I hoped someone would notice, but I didn't flag it for deletion because I was afraid it might accidentally get deleted without being read. I'd appreciate if you could take care of what needs taking care of from there. I also added the redirect Talk:Psychic (trainer class) just now, and the redirects Rider Bit (Battle e) and Team Snagem Goku (Battle e) a short while ago. Then there's these I just found... Unneeded alternate capitalizations: Black Belt (trainer class), Guy (trainer class), Double Team (trainer class), Psychic (trainer class) Sort-of shorthands that I question the need for: Black Belt (Class), Blackbelt (Class), Cipher (Class), Guy (Class), Double Team (Class), Psychic (Class) And is anyone really likely to search Cipher RandD...? Or Sr and Jr. or Sr. and Jr, putting a period on only one of them? Thanks. Tiddlywinks (talk) 18:22, 24 February 2015 (UTC) Sorry for the late reply, I've been caught up with school work. I'll try to look into it this weekend when I have some time if someone else hasn't gotten to it already. --Pokemaster97 07:39, 27 February 2015 (UTC) While you're at it, could you delete Pokémon Battle Trozei! and Battle Trozei? glikglak 23:10, 28 February 2015 (UTC) Everything here has been deleted. --Pokemaster97 05:26, 1 March 2015 (UTC) Sdex I just reread the message from Glik; it might have been my error in the reading of that as I now see he advised on the userpage usage. Even so, as I will be seeking to move the page using the template probably in two days or so (I'm going to trust that the Expert Stage data at Pokémon Shuffle is accurate), changing all of the references to the userspace version just to change them back in two days seems kind of pointless. My intention is to leave the template, then speak to someone about moving my project page when I'm done (was going to come to you in fact). I'm currently at Stage 135 and will probably be finished with my own research in a couple of days. The page using the template is located here; I'm surprised it's still working with the template now having been moved. CycloneGU (talk) 04:43, 1 March 2015 (UTC) ...aaand now I see, Sdex is for Sinnoh Dex. I can append a small "h" and make it "ShDex perhaps. CycloneGU (talk) 04:45, 1 March 2015 (UTC) Pokémon Shuffle Pokédex Barring a change to the title (if a better one is determined), List of Pokémon by Pokémon Shuffle Browser number is complete! I'm going to suggest to rename the associated template as "ShDex" and locate it there, and this page is itself also ready to move. Though I can move it (move permissions in my userspace, of course), the involvement of a template stays my doing so. Are there any changes that might be necessary before moving the template? I don't know if we want to create ability pages for the Shuffle abilities in the same vein as the others; in that instance, template work would be needed before moving the page out. Also, an update to Pokélist template with the new addition will eventually be needed once it's set. I'll be monitoring for new updates as I have completed all but the final stage of the maingame. I presume anything new goes after 150 (or after EX20 in the case of expert stages) outside of special downloadable content. CycloneGU (talk) 08:32, 3 March 2015 (UTC) Still looking for thoughts here. CycloneGU (talk) 04:16, 4 March 2015 (UTC) Sorry, I wasn't aware you wanted thoughts, the phrasing of your comments had me under the impression that you were just making general comments, not asking for feedback. The name "ShDex" sounds fine if you to rename it still. The template looks ok from a glance, but I'd run it past a more template-savvy staff member if you want more indepth input (SnorlaxMonster or Kogoro for instance). --Pokemaster97 04:22, 4 March 2015 (UTC) Awesome, thanks. I do feel the Pokédex page is ready to move, with the template being the only thing that might still need eventual editing. I'll ask SnorlaxMonster to determine if anything else is needed on the template for now and we'll go from there, as there's not a lot we can add to the Dex page right now other than the actual Shuffle images (if we even have them here yet). CycloneGU (talk) 04:25, 4 March 2015 (UTC) User revision I noticed that you were the last user to handle talk page etiquette. Can you take care of a user being too rough based on what he wrote on the revision? I reverted it instead of responding to it since the way he wrote it was against the code of conduct IMO. PattyMan 03:20, 4 March 2015 (UTC) It's handled. --Pokemaster97 04:15, 4 March 2015 (UTC) Asking Excuse me for a moment.

And you didn't even provide a reason for the deletion. DarienLeonhart (talk) 22:09, 6 April 2015 (UTC) If you have an issue with my decisions, or you don't like the way the rules are enforced here, you may speak with Kogoro. I'm done addressing you/arguing with you about the decisions I make (all of which I have the right to do). --Pokemaster97 00:09, 7 April 2015 (UTC) You bet I have issue with it, since I got in trouble for doing that, and all I did was correct the spelling of one word in someone else's talk page edit. And moderators such as yourself are supposed to follow their own rules. DarienLeonhart (talk) 00:53, 7 April 2015 (UTC) Please see the userspace policy, specifically the portion under "Content deletion" (section 4 in the contents). CycloneGU (talk) 00:56, 7 April 2015 (UTC) Asking why a person can't make changes to an article's main page isn't a violation of any policy that I'm aware of. It's a legitimate question and should not have been removed. Even if the answer why was posted somewhere else, it still isn't a violation of any policy, userspace or otherwise, and should not have been deleted. DarienLeonhart (talk) 01:05, 7 April 2015 (UTC) I've asked Pokemaster97 for permission to carry on this discussion with you in another venue. I'll let him answer on that here if he wishes, or I can update if I get a reply. However, I will say for now that there are two things to look at in this matter that I think were in play: 1. Per the talk page policy, "Removing comments is also prohibited, unless it is spam, content that would be better suited to the Bulbagarden forums, or a reply to a finished conversation older than six months"; 2. The code of conduct may have also been considered. I've demonstrated that administrators and above can do anything regardless of policy, though I am certain they also have their own internal policies that they must still follow (these I presume, without my knowing for sure, are set by Kogoro or past editors-in-chief or otherwise agreed to within the Editorial Board and are not for general viewing). In this case, Pokemaster must have considered the comment to be spammy or potentially in violation of the code of conduct (my understanding is that this stems from some time ago). Therefore, Pokemaster has taken the actions he felt necessary as a bureaucrat. The only level of appeal above a bureaucrat, I believe, is the editor-in-chief (Kogoro). If Kogoro agrees with Pokemaster's actions and decisions, then that's the final word; there is no one above that level. That's all I will say about this for now as I don't think I can explain it any plainer than that. I'm explaining this as someone who has had experience in a staff capacity at completely different (multiple) venues outside of Bulbapedia and, thus, as someone who can relate to what is happening here. CycloneGU (talk) 01:44, 7 April 2015 (UTC) Uh Regardless of that user's history, having the question answered on that page isn't a bad thing. Others will come along wanting to edit and it'll have to be answered later on anyway. CycloneGU (talk) 00:06, 7 April 2015 (UTC) So, should we go to all of the other 718 pages and explain why new users cannot edit those pages as well, even though it's explained in the FAQ and under the message when you attempt to edit it? --Pokemaster97 00:09, 7 April 2015 (UTC) I never said that. I just said there's nothing wrong with me answering another user's question. Blatantly saying "if you bothered to check" is, in short, suggesting I did something wrong by answering another user's question. I did nothing wrong and now you've made me feel like I made a grave sin here. The edit summary was extremely intimidating. CycloneGU (talk) 00:12, 7 April 2015 (UTC) I'd like to apologize to you for the edit summary, it was directed towards the user who originally restored the comment, who is constantly taking it upon himself to revert administrative action, I've removed it so no more confusion can occur from it as well as restored the comment. --Pokemaster97 00:17, 7 April 2015 (UTC) Thank you for the apology. Indeed, I was merely answering a user's question, so it took me by surprise. I feel it's a question that is better to answer as it comes up, personally, but that's just my opinion. And yeah, I now see that you had have deleted both entries, so I can see that it might have been directed at that user. CycloneGU (talk) 00:22, 7 April 2015 (UTC) Question Hey there, I have a question. Would it be fine if someone uploaded a picture of the Malamar and Inkay Clemont and James temporarily used in Facing the Grand Design! episode because I have been having major difficulties upload one on the archives page. Seabiscuit2020 01:38 07, April 2015(UTC) I can see if I (or someone else) can find something for you. Alternatively, if you have the picture saved somewhere else, if you link it to me, I can upload it from there if it's easier. --Pokemaster97 01:46, 7 April 2015 (UTC) Ash's Pikachu Since the other conversation got a little lengthy, I wanted to ask directly to get a feel for where this is going (apologies is this is not preferred). What is the feeling on natures showing up in the infoboxes for anime and manga Pokémon? Since, in the case of the anime, they are not brought up at all other than to say every Pokémon can be individually different, I don't think they have a place there as using a game reincarnation of something to "guess" is at best adding unsourced material, so I wanted to get a feel for what the thought is before this goes unprotected tomorrow. I don't mind noting natures of game representations on the page (and they should be there), but I feel they have nothing to do with the article itself otherwise, including the infobox, and demonstrated this there (using Ash's Scraggy as another example as well). This could by extension be applied to "guessed" abilities, too. CycloneGU (talk) 20:30, 20 May 2015 (UTC) I'd rather not say anything definite at this time, as the staff are still considering all the options. I voiced all my personal opinions on the issue the last time I commented, but can't really speak for all as it has the potential to be a major formatting change. The issue will be a topic during today's staff meeting though. --Pokemaster97 20:50, 20 May 2015 (UTC) No worries, and thanks for updating me on that much. I can't really say much more (and have already said plenty anyway LOL), so I'll let staff decide which way they prefer and will respect the decision. May I suggest voicing the thought of splitting Ash's Pikachu article as well much like the other main characters, though? Pikachu has appeared in virtually every main episode (perhaps saving one or two, but I can't think of them at this time) and every movie, so splitting it with (anime) and (manga) seems beneficial like with other characters. I'll leave my thoughts at that. =) CycloneGU (talk) 21:00, 20 May 2015 (UTC) A request Could you possibly delete this page for me? I failed to notice that another user already has it in his userspace, so there's no point in mine being there.
