"To match the games" blurb on Moo-Moo Milk (Neo Genesis 101)

Now, before you or anyone else tries to use an error in the trivia section to dismiss that blurb I inserted on the page in light of the HeartGold & SoulSilver reprint of the card bearing the name "Moomoo Milk", I've found some visual evidence that the blurb I inserted is, indeed, 100% accurate. Around 8:40 in this DP video (further evidence around 8:53) and around 2:30 in this Plat video (further evidence around 2:50) is enough to prove that the name on the HeartGold & SoulSilver in the reprint was indeed changed to match the video games. (For the record, I went ahead and left the error in trivia for now just in case you decided to revert me out of rage without looking at the visual evidence...) --Shiningpikablu252 18:43, 29 January 2010 (UTC)

Does one have to be in a high place to use the template?

I noticed that I am on the Top Contributors of the Month list, so I am wondering if one has to be in a certain high position (such as fourth place) there to be able to use the 'this user has been a top contributor of the month' template. The answer is probably no, and possibly merely inclusion there would suffice, but I was wondering. Steph 00:17, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

You've made it. Go ahead. ^Maverick _Nate 00:17, 1 February 2010 (UTC)

I suppose this is the place to ask...

As per the Image reversion policy, I have to propose to one of the Admins about changing anime images. I'm not quite sure whose talk page to contact, but I decided to pick you since you're the editor-in-chief.

I was going to purpose that this image of Ursula's Plusle and Minun be changed to this one. It is a .png, at the same resolution, shows the entire bodies of the duo, and shows how they utilize teamwork. - Chosen of Mana - 16:34, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

Fantastic idea. Thank you for asking. Go ahead. Do it by uploading a new version of the file. ^Maverick _Nate 19:56, 4 February 2010 (UTC)

Erm..

Why is this page's card text all screwy? R.A. Hunter Blade 04:09, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

It looks to be just the width of Template:Trainertext. It kind of looks like how newspapers spread out a line of text to fill the entire space. I don't know why it does that, but it doesn't seem like that big of a deal. ^Maverick _Nate 04:18, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Hmm. Because I haven't found any other TCG pages that look like that, although I'm clicking Random page. So far it seems to be only this card... but if you have no problem with it, then ok. R.A. Hunter Blade 04:30, 14 February 2010 (UTC)

Not sure if this is the right place to ask, but is there anyone out there who could rip the Sugimori Charizard and Venusaur from Pokemon FireRed/LeafGreen boxes (WITHOUT the FireRed/LeafGreen logo), just like we did with the Sugimori art that are only on the packaging of videogames, different than usual?

It's better but I'd keep the tag on it just to advertise we need an even better one. I'd like to see one with all of Venusaur's Petals, and hopefully, keeping the tag on it will alert people to try to get one with them. ^Maverick _Nate 19:07, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Made a big Charizard, but the bits of the wings have different colors and a bit of the Pokémon logo can be seen on one of the wings due that they came from 2 different sources. If only somebody could make them the same colors... Or upload a bigger Charizard.

Charizard Box Art

Regarding Poké-POWER

Is Porygon-Z LV.X (Majestic Dawn 100) the only card with more than one Poké-POWER? If not, what examples are there? ^ht 14 23:36, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

There's Igglybuff (EX Crystal Guardians 21) and I'm pretty sure there is a snorlax somewhere. ^Maverick _Nate 23:39, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

That's all I remember right off the top of my head ^Maverick _Nate 23:40, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

I found the Snorlax. But... if Porygon-Z the only one with two Poké-POWERs instead of one Poké-POWER and one Poké-Body? ^ht 14 23:42, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

I'm not sure. ^Maverick _Nate 23:42, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Would you consider it trivia-worthy then? ^ht 14 23:46, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

Not until we know for sure another does not exist. But, if there isn't another one, it might as well. ^Maverick _Nate 23:47, 15 February 2010 (UTC)

I've just run a check on the PokéPedia and on the PCL website and I am 99% certain that Porygon-Z is the only card with two Poké-Powers. Everything else with two Pokémon Powers has one Poké-Power and one Poké-Body. As I say though, I could be wrong - I'll check again just to make sure. Cipher (Talk) 16:05, 16 February 2010 (UTC)

Sorry to have to do splits and overhauls on cards depicting milk without any other warning...

However, it wasn't my whim that caused the splits and overhauls. It was a Team Compendium ruling that forced the overhauls. I didn't want to have to do it, but the ruling states that Moo-Moo Milk and Moomoo Milk are different cards entirely simply because of the slight differences in name and effect. 2 damage counters per heads on Moo-Moo Milk, 3 damage counters per heads on Moomoo Milk, that apparently got Team Compendium to see them as two different cards. As such, it falls into the same situation as Energy Charge as opposed to Power Charge, where we also see them as two different cards due to Team Compendium saying so despite similar effects. I did take care to remove as little information as possible in this split/overhaul...--Shiningpikablu252 04:43, 19 February 2010 (UTC)

LoL

I don't think you understand the meaning of the word "opinionated." Here. This might help you out. If you can give me one example of how my article on Goods cards was, and I quote, "opinionated," I'll be happy with simply fixing some factual errors within your rewrite as opposed to reverting back to my initial version. Otherwise, rewriting something for the sake of rewriting something is extremely frowned upon (at least it was when I was more active), especially when there was nothing factually, grammatically, or otherwise wrong Bulbapedia-wise with the article. And frankly, I don't think you have any basis on which to say my article was "opinionated." Additionally, your rewrite contains a couple over-explained sections and factual errors. For example, saying that Goods cards "typically" depict items from the games is erroneous, as only two real sets have been released in Japan, and by my count, around 14 out of the 23 Goods cards that have been released are not based on any item from the game. I definitely wouldn't call less than half "typically." It's not an opinion to say that, name aside, Goods cards are literally exactly the same as Trainer cards. I'm fine with explaining what exactly that means, in as simple a way as possible so as not to confuse the issue, and with saying that Goods cards receive a hint of blue in the word "Goods" and on the side. Unless my eyes are deceiving me, most of the Goods card in front of me is not tinted blue. Lastly, this isn't a big issue, but I'd prefer we refered to the so-called "LEGEND" era as the HeartGold & SoulSilver-on era, as "LEGEND era" is really just terminology someone on PokeBeach or Serebii made up... no one involved in the competitive PTCG actually calls it that. We didn't call DP-on the "LV.X era." It's not a big deal, though... I'm fine with leaving that. So yeah. Think about what I said and think about why you really deleted my article and replaced it with your own draft. --ニョロトノ 666 19:48, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

I chose the word opinionated as a place holder, because I thought it would be less embarrassing to have that instead of "This article is complete shit" in the edit summary/recent changes: which is essentially what your article was. But, now that you brought it out into the open; you obviously want the truth, which I was reluctant to give a 15 year old, just in case you would happen to freak out about it. But I guess you still pissed your pants about it anyway.

I used the word typically, because they are new trainer cards, and trainer cards depict either game items, or items of the like. I was preparing for the future so that we wouldn't have to edit it again to reflect a new percentage of cards. It was a deliberate preparation.

Are you color blind? Because the word "Trainer" on English Goods, and the word "Goods" is obviously blue. You should go see a doctor if you aren't seeing it, because your eyes are in actuality deceiving you.

LEGEND era is the Japanese name of the HGSS era. Since Goods are a Japanese classification of cards, we use Japanese names of eras and sets on pages depicting Japanese exclusive things. You would know that style if you were active. We do use LEGEND era because the Japanese card official site does, not because the beach or serebii do. Have you ever been to pokemon-card.com? I will give you one point for knowing we do not call anything the "LV.X era," but "HeartGold & SoulSilver-on era" is still wrong according to pokemon.com. There is no reason why I--and in extension, we at Bulbapedia--wouldn't be using official names. Why you would support unofficial naming conventions is beyond me.

And for the fact about my "rewrite"? let's look at time stamps. You happen to still be an administrator for now, so I know you can look at deleted revisions. My article and information is about a month before yours, making mine the original and the one you made the rewrite. "[R]ewriting something for the sake of rewriting something is extremely frowned upon" is something I agree with. So why would you do it, when the page you made was so horrifically horrible? ^Maverick _Nate 22:45, 17 March 2010 (UTC)

PokéPark cards

Thanks for supporting my website! I've seen that many people, including you, are visiting my website. I feel like the PokePark series cards (PCG-P cards) is more vivid with my own scans. If you want bigger scans, just go to my Portfolio. Here is one of my Portfolio pages(all Portfolio links can be found in the given page) : http://lightofthestars.com/tcg/portfolio/portfolio-promo.htm I have uploaded a Hi-Res image of Aura's Lucario from PokePark, and maybe, just maybe, I might get my hands on both PokéPark Sheets. The Forest sheet's cards were never released outside Japan, but the Blue Sheet's card were released in the US. However, all of these scans are either Low-res Japanese or Low-Res POP scans.
