Hat?

Wears a hat? That's a feather crest, and I don't see any sort of witch hat in there...--BJG - unsigned comment from Blackjack Gabbiani (talk • contribs)

You don't see the resemblance to a witch? I'm surprised. It is supposed to be a crest, but it's also supposed to be a pointed witches' hat. Heck - even it's tailfeathers are shaped like the bristles on a witches' broomstick. The whole design comes off as a witch/crow combination. - Zeta - unsigned comment from Zeta (talk • contribs)

And for that matter, why would a regular "feather crest", have a round, circular, flat part? - Zeta - unsigned comment from Zeta (talk • contribs)

Compare the pointed nose to the beak, the hat to the feather crest, and the back of the broom to Murkrow's tail feathers. Doesn't the whole thing seem at least a little similar to eachother? - Zeta, again. - unsigned comment from Zeta (talk • contribs)

...nope, still not seeing it. The way the tail is wrapped reminds me of sage brushing, but that's just coincidence.--BJG - unsigned comment from Blackjack Gabbiani (talk • contribs)

I see it. Now that it's mentioned... Evkl 19:58, 29 Mar 2005 (UTC)

Name Origin

I'm pretty sure that the "Mur" part of the name is derived from the word "murder", which is the name for a group of crows, not "murky". Anyone else have any input?--Yoshi1001 03:38, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Murk. Crow. Say it fast. Murkrow. TTEchidna 10:12, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

Third colour?

Is there such a thing as a gold Murkrow? A friend of mine said she saw one in Eterna Forest. Inker 04:20, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Shiny Murkrow are purple. There are no gold Murkrow. TTEchidna 04:30, 6 October 2007 (UTC)

Murkrow the steel type

just pointing out that under the listing of murkrow's attacks, steel wing is listed as having a STAB effect which doesn't make any sense unless murkrow was a steel type. Darkcloud1111 06:09, 27 July 2008 (UTC)Darkcloud1111

Gold Sprite Backwards

Why does the Gold sprite appear to be facing AWAY from the opponent. It's backwards...Was that a Nintendo whoops moment or is its eye facing the opponent so it's ment to look like that? Bttsstewart 01:37, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

I'm guessing it was flipped, alot of the sprites have this issue. The Dark Fiddler - Smarter than the average bear! 01:49, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

Heart Gold Location

Correction to Murkrow locations for Heart Gold. It need not be traded. It can be found in it's normal haunts from G/S/C as well as in the Lake region of the Safari Zone on Cianwood Chromehawk 10:35, 4 November 2009 (UTC)

Considering all HGSS location updates were unable to be completed before we discovered that stupid app, it's understandable. TTEchidna 02:07, 5 November 2009 (UTC)

"Hat" Size

Murkrow's "hat" seemingly doubles in size in Generation IV. Is this Trivia-worthy? --IWannaBeTheVeryBest 19:35, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

Is sprite trivia Trivia-worthy? No.----無限の知性 ◎ ＤＥＮＮＯＵ◆ＺＥＮＳＨＩ 19:39, 11 December 2010 (UTC)

French name

In the "Name in other languages" section, it says Murkrow's French name is "Corboss" wich is Honchkrow's. And i don't know Murkrow's French name.--Mamutepeq (talk) 13:54, 16 July 2012 (UTC)
