Talk:Manaphy (M09)

If this counts as one of her Pokemon shouldn't there be an article for "Max's Jirachi" or heck, "Max's Ralts"? I'm just saying that I really don't think that a trainer should get credit for a Pokemon they briefly befriended for an episode and never even caught. If not, we need to add articles on "Brock's Sharpedo", "Max's Poliwag", and "Brock's Stantler" and such as well. --Zeta 20:13, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

I thought it was odd as well, though I haven't seen the movie so I'm not sure if anything might actually indicate Manaphy temporarily belonging to May, rather than just being her friend. But I agree with you - it's very possible someone just wanted to glorify May by saying she had a Manaphy or something. Same thing for "May's" Swablu, actually - I mean, there's a difference between that and Ash's Haunter or Larvitar. I would not be opposed for the articles being deleted - unless we wanted to go in the opposite direction and expand more, and include all the ones you just mentioned and all the ones you didn't... --Pie 20:37, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

Well, I haven't seen the movie either. Did May command it in battle? That'd be a key difference between Manaphy and "Brock's Sharpedo." Looking at the "Team Rocket's Pokemon" Template, there seems to be a space set aside for "Jessie's Charizard" and "James' Aggron". If these temporary captures get their own page, then "May's Manaphy" and possibly "Max's Jirachi" should get their own pages. However, the current Character Pages for Team Rocket direct James' Aggron et al to the regular Pokemon page. It's confusing, but I thought you all'd like to know.--PikamasterADV 22:24, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

When the heck did Team Rocket ever use Charizard and Aggron? --Zeta 22:34, 2 October 2006 (UTC)

In AG176, that Delibird that follows around Team Rocket gave them a Charizard and an Aggron for temporary usage. They were returned by the episodes's end. --PAK Man
