Why aren't the different sprites of Toxicroak seen in the page? Shouldn't it be there? File:Ani448MS.gifJmathFile:Ani447MS.gifTalkFile:Ani448MS.gif 13:01, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

I think we didn't upload them yet (don't ask me to!) 493OptimatumTalk|13:02 7 Mar 2008
I saw one of the sprites on Saturn's page. File:Ani448MS.gifJmathFile:Ani447MS.gifTalkFile:Ani448MS.gif 13:08, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
That was the basic shiny sprite...not the ones that added the 'm' and 'f'...493OptimatumTalk|13:15 7 Mar 2008
But don't we add the shiny sprites to the article as well? File:Ani448MS.gifJmathFile:Ani447MS.gifTalkFile:Ani448MS.gif 13:18, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Is Saturn's shiny or not I mean it looks shiny but ppl say it isn't and I'm confused! User:Crystallucario/Sig 13:32, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

The shiny color seems right but...493OptimatumTalk|13:33 7 Mar 2008
  • I know but everyone says it isn't!

User:Crystallucario/Sig 13:35, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

Wait, I'll settle the sprite prob first...

Template:Png and Template:Png or Template:Png. See? 493OptimatumTalk|13:37 7 Mar 2008

Does the Pokédex [entry] look absolutely exactly like the Toxicroak? Strange.. my Pokédex, despite a shiny Flygon being the first Flygon I had, it doesn't list it as shiny. I know about the anime =/= games thing, but STILL! Also, look at Croagunk, and compare it to the regular sprite. Orange and blue. Typical. Now compare Toxicroak to the POKÉDEX image and the sprite. Damn different. Tina δ281 16:14, 7 March 2008 (UTC)


Please, stop this bullshit. Ash scanned the toxicroak and the image of the pokedex showed the blure-greenish colour. The pokedex always shows the regular pokemon ( when the shiny noctowl was scanned back in jotho, a brown noctowl was displayed at the pokedex). So the "shiny" colour is the normal anime colour. Live with it. All the toys of toxicroak look like the anime version: 41RKbHDvh3L._AA280_.jpg do you really think they would sell only the shiny version of the pokemon? I will edit the toxicroak article every time until you come to your senses... DocDoak. 18:40, 7 March 2008

Someone needs to interview an Art Director, or we need to see Croagunk evolving to be absolutely sure. --Dman dustin 18:05, 7 March 2008 (UTC)


Ash scanned a shiny noctowl and the pokedex showed him a normal noctowl. Ash scans this toxicroak and the pokedex showed him..guess what? THIS toxicroak. it is a normal one. We don´t need an interview or something like that. http://serebiiforums.com/showpost.php?p=7636013&postcount=25 <- look at all of the toys. btw, the toys are much older than this weeks episode, so , no, it isn´t a toy-line for the episode. Toxicroak is not the first pokemon which looks different in the first games it was released in than the other medias. think about bellosom or ariados... DocDoak, 18:12, 7 March 2008

People, people, please. Whomsover has seen the anime episode can end this war by ansering this question.
  • When Toxicrak was released from it's Poké Ball, did stars appear like they did with Noctowl?
    • If yes, Toxicroak is shiny.
    • If no, Toxicroak is not shiny.

Can't get simpler than that. Personally I blame GameFreak for not being creative with their shiny colours (tch, light blue!). (P.S. I haven't seen the episode so I can't answer the question.) TESHIGIGAS 486 18:14, 7 March 2008 (UTC)

I saw the episode and their wasn´t a sparkle. there was a effect which some people might think is the shiny effect, but it was just for show of and was shown like this several time before that on non-shiny pokemon. My Pokédex argument still stands. DocDoak, 18:19 7 March, 2008

All right, this debate on whether that Toxicroak is shiny or not is really getting out of hand. If the Toxicroak was really shiny, wouldn't someone mention something about it being shiny (I'm talking about in the show). But no one said anything about it. It was like with anything else. They see a Pokémon, scan it and the episode goes on. I am not saying the Toxicroak is not shiny but wouldn't it be better to wait for another Toxicroak to appear and note whether they have same color or not. If they do, it's definitely not shiny but if the other one is blue instead, we can agree this one is shiny. File:Ani448MS.gifJmathFile:Ani447MS.gifTalkFile:Ani448MS.gif 18:36, 7 March 2008 (UTC)
