CONGLATURATIONS!!

please tell me you didnt just randomly guess Rattata and actually knew that.. -- MAGNEDETH 00:08, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

To tell the truth, I Googled the words. ^_^;; I didn't see in the rules that I couldn't, and the first thing that came up were the song, which was by Ratt. At first I didn't know how Ratt was related to any Pokémon, but then I remembered Rattata and posted it. --spontaneousCombusken 02:40, 29 June 2008 (UTC)
if someone didnt get it, my next hint was "google is your friend" so, thats fine. nice job. -- MAGNEDETH 03:20, 29 June 2008 (UTC)

lol

...dude, seriously....? Never mind, don't answer that, it's not really that important... --ElectAbuzzzz 19:19, 15 July 2008 (UTC)

No idea what you're talking about, so I can't really give you a good answer. - spontaneousCombusken 03:57, 16 July 2008 (UTC)

Thankees

Just wanted to thank you for your help with linkery around the site. --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 23:25, 18 July 2008 (UTC)

You're welcome! ...I don't want to comment with just that, because it feels so short. I dunno what to write here, though. - s.Combusken 23:30, 18 July 2008 (UTC)
Yes, you made my life easier. ~$aturn¥oshi THE VOICES 00:13, 19 July 2008 (UTC)

Please

Slow down on editing the User: namespace. Editing your userpage too much will lead to it being locked again. Instead of making ten small edits, why not instead use the preview button (Alt + Shift + P) to check your edits before saving the page. Thank you. --Porygon-Z 05:14, 30 July 2008 (UTC)

Shinies

I don't know you much, but do you have a Celebi or Ho-oh?--Diamaster 05:24, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

Sorry, no legendaries except the ones from Sinnoh. And even then I don't have all of them yet. - s.Combusken 20:15, 2 August 2008 (UTC)

no offense but plz Listen 2 me

All u ppl do is criticize me. When I'm doing something u don't like, u ppl r there 2 tell me off. When I ask for HELP. It takes for EVER for someone 2 respond. Y is that?--Ahatake 21:02, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

First of all, it's against the rules to rapidly edit the User: namespace. Try to limit yourself to three times per page per day. Violating the rules will obviously get you in trouble, and maybe even blocked. Secondly, asking for help on your own talk page is not going to get answers anytime soon, since nobody gets a notice. If you ask for help on other people's talk pages, namely sysops or senior members, then they'll get a notice and will be there to assist you when they can. Finally, it would be better to understand you if you use proper English, meaning spell correctly, use correct grammar and punctuation, etc. - s.Combusken 21:06, 4 August 2008 (UTC)

Thx....

title speaks--Ahatake 19:40, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

2 questions....

1) who owns this site? 2)How do u get a charatcer info box? plz answer --Ahatake 20:01, 5 August 2008 (UTC)

1.) Apparently, Archaic is the head of Bulbagarden right now, so it should be him.
2.) Copied it from Kenny's page.
3.) Like I said, it would be easier to understand if you used correct spelling and such.
4.) I think you should try making more edits to the main namespace instead of your user page.
5.) - s.Combusken 20:05, 5 August 2008 (UTC)
I don't know if you'd call Archaic either the owner or the head of Bulbapedia... but he is the founder, at least. -Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 02:41, 6 August 2008 (UTC)

are you

gonna make a synopsis for DP 85? Happizelpom 21:18, 9 August 2008 (UTC)Happizelpom

I don't write synopses, I only fix the ones that need some redos. - s.Combusken 21:20, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

is anybody gonna make one then? whos the person who maked synopsis' for the other episodes? Happizelpom 21:45, 9 August 2008 (UTC)Happizelpom

Why can't you make one, instead of complaining because no one else is. MoldyOrange 22:27, 9 August 2008 (UTC)

do i look like someone who understands japanese? Happi440zel418pom190

Gym leader infobox

The "badge" field of the {{CharacterInfobox}} template (when the "leader" field is set to "yes") automatically links to the appropriate section of the Badge article, just like the {{badge}} template does. So there's no need to use the template in the infobox. I just thought I'd point that out to you. --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 21:47, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Oh, I thought that since the "type" field had to be manually linked, the "badge" field had to be like that too. - s.Combusken 21:49, 10 August 2008 (UTC)
Yeah... I don't get it, either. --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 22:00, 10 August 2008 (UTC)

Again

This is your second warning. Please refrain from editing the User: namespace too rapidly, or you will lose privileges. --Porygon-Z 04:36, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

I think I'm innocent this time, since your userpage says to limit myself to three edits per day, and I've made no more than that. - s.Combusken 04:40, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
Ah, you're right. While skimming through your edits, I saw some User Talk ones, which at a glance look like User ones. My apologies. Porygon-Z 04:44, 12 August 2008 (UTC)

Ash's temp Hoothoot

Neither did Gary, but we include it on his page, don't we?--KukiTalk 00:23, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Eh, I guess so. I saw a talk page where there were debates about putting Ponyta/Rapidash on that section because Ash borrowed it in The Flame Pokémon-athon, but a sysop (I forget which) said that he didn't battle with it or catch it himself, so it wasn't needed. =/ - s.Combusken 00:34, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Well he was just a figurehead for Lara, so I'd understand that--KukiTalk 00:36, 23 August 2008 (UTC)

Thank you

Thank you for the welcome. I'll use the rules for editing you suggested. Thank you. - unsigned comment from Monkeyjb1988 (talkcontribs)

About Adaptability

I know it's an encyclopaedia, so surely the more information the better? I merely added a few facts about Adaptability, so if someone looked up adaptability they might think "Oh, that's handy" and be better off because of it. What negative could possibly come from what I wrote? I thought in an encyclopaedia, the more information the better, as long as its correct (and that was correct information). How can extra, true information be so bad as to delete it? What good will come from that?

And, I would have thought we'd WANT people to have a reason to come here. People can see Adaptability and the Pokemon that learn it on 50 other sites on the internet, including the most popular ones. So wouldn't you rather give reasons for people to come HERE? Anyone can see Adaptability's effect on any established Pokemon site, but not many sites also give useful hints about how it can be used. - unsigned comment from Mr. Black (talkcontribs)

Okay, first of all, you're about 8 days late.
Secondly, if you haven't noticed at all, the 'pedia, from what I have seen, does not have anything about Wi-Fi Battling and all that junk. Even the tier list is not updated, and it doesn't even "meet the quality standards of Bulbapedia" either. If an article starts rambling on about "Choice Band Eevee" and "Life Orb Porygon-Z," chances are the reader will have to move on to a different site to go and find out more, which would be irritating. So then we'd either have to create and/or edit many pages to keep all the information at one website, and that would take a long time if we don't copy others' analyses, and even then not everybody would find the information useful, because they don't even care about competitive battling.
I mean, Bulbagarden's already affiliated to Smogon, so I think it's better to keep it simple. If you have any problems about it, go talk to one of the SysOps. I'm just another regular user, keeping the 'pedia consistent. - s.Combusken 03:20, 18 October 2008 (UTC)
And, the more true information is not always the better. The following example may be true, but it should not be on Brock's page: "Brock is the only rock-type gym leader in Kanto to be male." That may be true, but it does not go on trivia because of how dumb and limited it is. MoldyOrange 03:26, 18 October 2008 (UTC)

All done sir.

Now you can go ahead and relink your accounts (and why not link one on Bulbanews while you're at it?). Enjoy the purple colorscheme. TTEchidna 03:00, 5 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks, TTE. ;) I'll have to change my signature now... - s.Combusken 03:02, 5 January 2009 (UTC)
AHA! So that I why I could figure out whom EspeonA is!DCM((曲奇饼妖怪Spy on My Edits)) 01:06, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
So that I why I could...? *confused* - espeonA 01:07, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
Sorry, typo. Cold fingers create many mistakesDCM((曲奇饼妖怪Spy on My Edits)) 01:11, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

Magnemite

I'll work on the sprite. But first, may I ask if the magnets were still bent when it evolved?--Tavisource 00:54, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

I think you're confused. Kenji-girl's the one who added Number Six onto the to-do list... - espeonA 00:57, 6 January 2009 (UTC)
Oh, I see...sorry.--Tavisource 01:00, 6 January 2009 (UTC)

I'm a little confused

I'm a bit new to this Wiki thing and thanks for pointing out whatever I did wrong. I'd hate to get in trouble for a little mistake. I just thought you could edit your talk page like your regular user page, or am I missing something? You know, since it's yours and all. I only erased that giant green thing because it's a little obnoxious and appears to be auto generated by the site.- unsigned comment from Hoaxygen (talkcontribs)

You're right in a way: since the talk page is yours, you can edit it however you want. But the comments on the talk page aren't yours, you can't edit that. ;) The welcome template isn't automatically generated, though. Regular users manually create new users' talk page for the welcome template, so it's technically a comment by somebody. Hope you actually did read everything, though. - espeonA 23:09, 8 January 2009 (UTC)

Thanks

Thanks for catching my template edits; I'm copy-pasting your code now. I was wondering how to make it not look like we were running out of space for the headers, which you fixed so thanks again. Nice talk page borders by the way... — THE TROM — 03:57, 11 January 2009 (UTC)

I think they look kinda fat with that much padding on the header. They need some padding on the sides so the table edges aren't rubbing up on the title. Also, what's with the padding-bottom on the table itself? It's hardly noticeable, and doesn't even show in IE. — Laoris (Blah) 04:00, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
Ok, cool, thanks Laoris. Redoing what I've done now, copied from your edit of Template:Acid Armor. — THE TROM — 04:05, 11 January 2009 (UTC)
Yup, Laoris's 2px 15px version looks better than what I had been doing. I was pretty much doing that so it didn't look unbalanced, and I wasn't really thinking about how it could be even better. =/ - espeonA 04:07, 11 January 2009 (UTC) (P.S. Thanks about the talk page borders, by the way. ~ EspeonA)

Hey...

We first found out about each other when I was saying that everybody hated me, and I think we kinda got off on the wrong foot. So, can we make up and try to be friends? Chocolate (Chat with Me) 02:21, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

its happening...DCM((Mock MeEdits)) 03:33, 19 January 2009 (UTC)
What do you mean? Chocolate (Chat with Me) 20:24, 19 January 2009 (UTC)

stock audio and stuff

Its stock audio, they've used it multiple times. The most recent is in Ghoul Days but its mew's cries from Pokémon the first movie. And what about the other two Trivias? whats wrong with those?

What about the

  • She also has some similar traits as the younger Sabrina Ash and his friends encountered in Kanto.

that's opinion.

or

  • In one scene, Ash mentioned to Pikachu to just count to ten when a Haunter grabbed Shinx's tail. This could refer to a Japanese myth about a ghost who is unable to count to ten, then suddenly disappears. it being based on japanese myth sounds like speculation.

You guyys give me a hard time but i don't see you going at the throat of the one that made the other Trivia Yami 04:54, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Look, you can't expect me to know every single piece of trivia on Bulbapedia and differentiate fact from opinion. The least anyone can do is keep from adding more opinion to the ever-growing lists of trivia that are located on every single page possible. You claim we're giving you a hard time, but it's definitely the opposite because you're bothering someone every single time one of your edits are altered in any way. So shut up and accept the facts. eA 04:59, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

It was three things, and for god sakes at most the triva about it being the second episode of the Summer Academy for having people and pokemon put under hypnotic like trances. Yami 05:03, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Okay, first of all, that sentence doesn't make sense. Second of all, the second episode of the Summer Academy arc is not Ghoul Daze, it is Up Close and Personable!
And just to clarify, the first statement is an opinion. The second statement is a fact. Have a nice day. eA 05:08, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

I didn't say it was the second episode, i said as it is in the trivia

  • This is the second episode of the week in the Pokémon Summer Academy where someone is put into a hypnotic state of mind.

also if its opinion and you guys are so agaisnt it then the little girl sabrina thign sould be 86ed. Yami 05:13, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

I'll reply with an appropriate answer once you decide to use proper English. eA 05:17, 25 January 2009 (UTC)
The Sabrina trivia is actually notable, because the Sabrina kid was tricking Ash and his friends, just like the Demonic girl did, And also their behaving is slightly similar.--FF(edits-talk) 05:17, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Well The smirk has stock audio from the movie, and it makes it seem highly likely that she's not human but pokemon. No one had a real problem until Sketch or who ever came along and 86ed it sayign it was speculation when there was other trivia that bordered on that line. Yami 05:22, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

Re: Regions go on the top..? :P

Mmyea, I was just following the disambiguation page, though I did contemplate whether I should've put Sevii Islands up there instead. I only put Celadon next to Rocket cos it's also called Celadon Game Corner. Just it fattens the template up a bit unevenly :|     -–<×vVvvv τλικ to ς1tHςι3r ^^vVv×>–- 09:11, 25 January 2009 (UTC)

You have a pretty fancy signature. Can you explain how I can make mine snazzy too? I'm not so great with HTML.
