location
why do we have a location for tangela in Diamond and Pwarl if a glich prevents irt from being found? The Placebo Effect 22:49, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
- Er, what? I never heard of a glitch, however, I don't think it's even a swarmer... TTEchidna 23:57, 28 September 2007 (UTC)
- Tangela was supposed to be found in a swarm, but from what I'm told, due to a glich in how the swarming area was chosen, it isn't catchable. The Placebo Effect 02:53, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
- The location is WRONG! The only three Pokémon that can be caught at the peak of Mt. Coronet (which is Spear Pillar) are Dialga, Palkia and Arceus (the Hall of Origin is above Speak Pillar, so I count it as Spear Pillar)! Optimus35Talk | DP Can you see this? 07:50, 29 September 2007 (UTC)
- No, the PEAK is the snowy part on the way to Spear Pillar. Babyg 00:03, 5 October 2007 (UTC)

The page is conflicting, it says None in Game Locations for D/P, yet in Trivia it says it is found on Mt. Coronet. That should be fixed. CrimsonCerberus 14:13, 20 June 2008 (UTC)
Tangled up in blue?
Could Tangla's color be a referance to the song tangled up in blue? --ShinyPiKa (talk)
- Was the song released in Japan? --FabuVinny |Talk Page| 20:52, 11 August 2008 (UTC)
- Not sure, probably not though ShinyPiKa 00:25, 12 August 2008 (UTC)
Diamond/Pearl location
Does anyone have any definitive evidence or first-hand experience showing that Tangela does indeed swarm around Mt. Coronet? A couple early guides state this, but most do not. I reverted a change to the Tangrowth trivia since everywhere else on Bulbapedia indicates that Tangela is not catchable in Diamond and Pearl. — Laoris (Blah) 20:44, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
- No. Tangela does not swarm around Mount Coronet. Serebii said that for a while, but now they do not. Veekun says no. The official Nintendo guides say no. Someone here, out of all the users, would have had to run into the swarm by now if it existed.--The Kkllnnator blastoise 20:56, 17 November 2008 (UTC)
Grammar
In the Origin section, it should be "Its Crystal sprite," not "It's."--Trebligoniqua 05:31, 1 November 2009 (UTC)
- Er, no. The contraction of "It is" is "It's". Oshawhat? 14:45, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
Red/Green sprite
This probably isn't notable enough for the trivia section due to the subjective nature of it but does anyone else think the Tangela sprite from Pokémon Red and Green (here: http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Spr_1g_114.png) has similar proportions to Tangrowth? Does anyone else think it might have been a possible design inspiration? Oshawhat? 14:50, 25 February 2011 (UTC)
Pure Grass-typing
Should we add in the trivia that Tangela is the only pure Grass-type Pokémon from Generation I? SoftFurretWarmFurret (talk) 23:53, 13 September 2013 (UTC)
How is that Reflect thing not Trivia?
Look at this. Out of the original 151, Tangela's the only Pokemon to break the pattern; it can't learn it in RBY, but can in the other games. Unowninator (talk) 15:42, 25 March 2016 (UTC)
- Yes... and? This is overly specific to the point of nitpicking.--ForceFire 03:26, 28 March 2016 (UTC)
How not notable?
TeamFourStar's SoulSilver Nuzlocke had basically half a video (part 52) discussing the "fact" that there were no pure grass types in Gen1 (they have a running gag that they consider Tangela a glitch), and I came to this page solely to find out if they were right. This isn't Wikipedia where trivia lists are discouraged in general and everything requires a reliable secondary source, so how is notability for these trivia even defined? A semi-reliable source that points it out should be enough, surely? Satorukun0530 (talk) 12:07, 5 January 2017 (UTC)
