OK, that Emerald info was wrong. I just got the game last Thursday, so I know. First of all, our second battle didn't involve a Wingull, Lotad, or Slugma. She had her Mudkip and a Torkoal. I of course have Combusken. Last night when I fought her on Route 110, she had a Marshtop, Slugma, and Lombre. So, I don't know how many other mistakes could be there.

And here's some proof. Porygon-Z 18:19, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
That seems to be correct. May has Lombre and Slugma, but not Wingull if she has Marshtomp. So what's wrong? ~ kenn Talk 18:24, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
In the second battle, it depends on your starter. Example, I have Mudkip as my starter, and May has Wingull. If you have Torchic, then May has Slugma instead. ~ kenn Talk 18:26, 19 May 2008 (UTC)
For the second battle it says that if I have Combusken, than May would not have Slugma. And in the first battle, well, the article said nothing about a Torkoal. Porygon-Z 18:30, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

This one would probably make more sense to look at. ~ kenn Talk 18:47, 19 May 2008 (UTC)

May Birch

Since this article is for the game, Should May Birch her full name *when no the chosen player character) be included? Yami 23:09, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Well that's the point to why we're not doing that. If she is chosen as the player, she's not "May Birch". The same applies to Brendan. Plus if we had May Birch and Brendan Birch, people would start to believe they are siblings. --ケンジガール 23:11, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Not if you explain it to them Yami 23:14, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Also they list Both Norman and Prof. Birch as fathers with the condition to how that happens, so just as long as the person reading this has common sense they shouldn't get confused.Yami 23:18, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

  1. I don't really see a point to it.
  2. The way you put it didn't explain anything at all. If you put the conditions under which her name would be "May Birch," then it would be better, but I still don't think we ought to include it. --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 23:21, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
Also, what about her Japanese name? We'd have to mess with that too. --ケンジガール 23:22, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

You guys are making this more difficult then it has to be. We don't have to mess with her Japanese name, it can remain as is. Anmd if the person would simply read the article they'd figure out that you only add the Birch part when she's Birch's daughter. Common sense really. Yami 23:23, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

So you'd just ignore the Japanese name? If you don't feel that's important than we shouldn't even bother with the English. --ケンジガール 23:26, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
Well if you want to go and change the Japanese name too, then copy past the Japanese from Prof Birch's name and put it where it needs to be. that problem is solved, you don't have to make this so difficult. Yami 23:30, 5 September 2008 (UTC)
We don't need to mention "Birch". Anyone can figure out that could be a possible last name for themselves. --ケンジガール 23:31, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

Well then you just defeated your platform on how people would get confused about the whole thing. Yami 23:34, 5 September 2008 (UTC)

You still haven't provided a good reason why we should add it. I definitely see a good reason that we shouldn't: It'll cause confusion, even if it's only momentary (which it won't always be). --Martonimos((Argh|Blargh)) 00:02, 6 September 2008 (UTC)

Because its Common sense and it educates people on the differences between regular may and both forms of game May.

and kenji protecting the article is an abuse of power an uncalled for. Yami 00:04, 6 September 2008 (UTC)
