Questions, questions, questions.

Quag, can we edit this page? -Full of Questions

As long as you don't put in any nonsense speculation, yes. Quagbert 00:03, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Since I can't edit this, can someone point out that Zorua and Zoroark appear to be based off of the shapshifting kitsune in Japanese folklore? Especially when you compare its reddish facial markings to the red marks that often outline the face in "kitsune" masks? thanks - - unsigned comment from Ninja wolf (talkcontribs)

Also, "Zorro" (similar to Zorua and Zoroark) is spanish for fox. This should probably be name origin (until we get their English names) たかはりいTalk! 07:34, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Can we take the Fake sprites off this page? They're fake and obviously have no place there. Bttsstewart 17:30, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

They are used as replacements until real sprites are made. They say they are fake when you scroll over them and when you click on them. It is similar to using the images that are used in the infobox. Blake Talk·Edits 17:44, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
Not paying attention to the file information, eh Bttsstewart? -Sketch 17:48, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Zorua? Zoroa?

Shouldn't it be added (trivia, perhaps?) that the Katakana spelling of its name says "Zoroa", although the romanization says "Zorua"? FireMeowth 20:39, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

I don't see why it can't be put there. Gizamimi Pichu 20:44, 11 February 2010 (UTC)
Not really notable. Umbreon's Katakana is phonetically Burakki, while the trademarked romanization is Blacky. It's quite common for the trademarked romanization to be slightly different than the Katakana would be phonetically. - Kogoro | Talk to me - 20:46, 11 February 2010 (UTC)

Protected?

Why? I guess because people would be eager to put irrelevant speculation on the page, but is that a good enough reason? --GEN1KING 00:06, 12 February 2010 (UTC)

Any speculation would be quickly removed. But really what would people add to the page? Trivia? :/ Blake Talk·Edits 00:10, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
More like something about it being related to Poochyena/Riolu/Shinx. GV is has been cooking up a lot of speculation, no doubt some will be added if not protected. At Gen1king: yes, you don't know how messed up fan speculation can turn out. It could start off as pretty cool, but then turn into something weird, such as alternate formes due to its appearance being similar to many others and relation to Roark as Zoroark has it in its name. Also, speculation happens to articles pretty often and it isn't true, and encyclopedias should have true facts. Turtwig A (talk | contribs) 00:24, 12 February 2010 (UTC)
