== help with wording on [[Twerp]] ==
 
Hello
on the article [[Twerp]] I added that the ter mis not always used as an insult, such as how Meowth referred to Ash and the crew as tworps even when he was temporarily with the group in mid Unova.
Is there a better way to include this because without this point, it only looks like it's always an insult.  I think it's important to acknowledge that the term is not always an insult but is rathe roften times an insult instead of always.  thakns.
[[User:African Vulture|African Vulture]] ([[User talk:African Vulture|talk]]) 18:16, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
:Hey there. I feel like the wording you used works ok enough. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">--Pokemaster</span>]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">97</span>]]''''' 20:18, 30 March 2020 (UTC)

== Editing other user's userpages  ==
 
Had you bothered to check {{u|Raltseye}}'s [[User talk:Raltseye#Userpage|Talkpage]], you would have seen that I had the user's permission. Now, if you wouldn't mind undoing your reversion and being more vigilant in future.  [[User:48Pills|48Pills]] ([[User talk:48Pills|talk]]) 20:04, 30 March 2020 (UTC)
:Perhaps next time you'd find it useful to use an edit summary so other editors could be aware of that (that message was not explicit permission either in my interpretation). I am only human, that can be missed in the 1,000s of edits that occur on the wiki everyday, mistakes happen, no need to be rude about it. Thanks.

I think we can both agree that user pages are exempted from the user space policy when they include lines such as '''Feel free to correct any typos'''. --[[User:Raltseye|<span style="color:#FF6464">R</span><span style="color:#11BB11">alts</span><span style="color:#6464FF">eye</span>]] [[User talk:Raltseye|prata med mej]] 10:07, 31 March 2020 (UTC)
 
== Type: Null Anime ==
 
In the anime, it's highly implied that Type: Null and Silvally are the same Pokémon. I put that in the trivia, but GrammarFreak01 changed it. I know it might be a bit speculative, but there's a ton of evidence to back this up. Should I put it back? I know he'll just undo it again. [[User:Browserboom|Browserboom]] ([[User talk:Browserboom|talk]]) 17:16, 7 April 2020 (UTC)
:Unfortunately, if it's never been explicitly confirmed we can't allow trivia that is speculative in nature, even if there does seem to be evidence that suggests that it's true.

:I responded over on the talk page but I do think it's a good suggestion. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">--Pokemaster</span>]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">97</span>]]''''' 05:34, 10 April 2020 (UTC)

== Mainspacing request ==
 
I'm hoping you mean what you wrote in your MftE, so here's a page I'd like to "fast-track".
 
It's a page I was reassured it'd be notable before I made it, which was back in 2016. Over time, I repeatedly asked staff member(s) to mainspace it, but that never happened. Recently, Daniel Carrero created the article from scratch, rather than mainspacing mine (no blame on him please). That was about almost weeks ago, and nothing happened since then. I'm talking about [[Confusion (status condition)|confusion]].
 
So could you pleease either merge the two yourself and at least do [[Special:Diff/3156837|the appropriate edit]] [[Special:Diff/2563332|to the template]], ask a staff member of your choice to do it, or promote me so I can do it? Thanks. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 10:04, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
:Apologies for the late reply, I was on reduced activity for a bit. I agree that since your page was in your mainspace for over 3 years and the staff dropped the ball on getting it approved for mainspacing, I went ahead and merged the two histories so that your work could be reflected as well. Feel free to see the page and make any fixes if you see them. I also went ahead and updated the template to reflect the individual page that was created as well. Thanks for bringing this to my attention and sorry for the oversight!

:Alright, no problem, and thank you.
:As far as I can tell, Spriteit did a good job merging the content (which I was primarily focussing on, not the credit/referencing). So thanks again. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 19:13, 15 May 2020 (UTC)
 
== Request to either create a new account or to change my username ==
 
If my Account Name is anything to go off of, I created this account back in 2016 and at the time, I didn't have a general username that I would use for websites.  However, I have began using "pkmn.sm" across different websites and would like to have my username changed accordingly.  If at all possible, I would like to have it changed to the name mentioned, but if it isn't possible, then I'd like permission to create a new account.  Thank you for reading.  [[User:Pocketmonsterfan2016|Pocketmonsterfan2016]] ([[User talk:Pocketmonsterfan2016|talk]]) 20:54, 2 June 2020 (UTC)
:Hey there. Unfortunately our renameuser function is broken so I cannot rename your account, but feel free to create a new account since it doesn't seem like you made many edits with the one you are using now. Let me know if you have any other questions! '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">--Pokemaster</span>]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">97</span>]]''''' 19:05, 3 June 2020 (UTC)
 
== KnightGalarie and Gyarados edit ==
 
Hey! Since you've decided to get involved in {{U|KnightGalarie}}'s style of editing, do you think you could look into [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Gyarados_%28Pok%C3%A9mon%29&type=revision&diff=3184454&oldid=3184453 this edit] for the {{p|Gyarados}} article? I've had [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/User_talk:KnightGalarie#Ho-Oh_and_Gyarados a back-and-forth discussion] with them over it, and I think a third party should look into it.
 
Also, on a slightly related tangent, I think there needs to be a discussion amongst the staff about the issue of style when it comes to Pokémon whose recurring status in the anime is ambiguous, like Gyarados and {{p|Dodrio}}. Since you made the wording for the Dodrio entry ambiguous, perhaps this opens the question of whether this should automatically apply to all other Pokémon articles with similar cases, as well as how we should evaluate the ambiguity of continuity. Do you get my drift? [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 20:20, 12 June 2020 (UTC)
:Hey there, I believe G50 addressed this by stating that there 'must' be confirmed explicitly in order for us to state a relation as so on pages. An approach similar to mine would be okay because it remains ambiguous and never confirmed that it was indeed the same Pokémon. '''''[[User:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">--Pokemaster</span>]][[User talk:Pokemaster97|<span style="color:Blue;">97</span>]]''''' 19:18, 17 June 2020 (UTC)
::So what is the correct approach? I can't abide with getting conflicting answers from different admins. Shouldn't there be a consensus among staff about how to approach this, style-wise? Also, this problem is rearing its ugly head again with {{an|Korrina}}'s {{p|Mienfoo}} and {{p|Mienshao}} with the latest anime episode being aired. There NEEDS to be a discussion amongst the staff about this. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 21:32, 21 June 2020 (UTC)

:Hey there, will do. However, I am unsure at this point in time how long the change username will be down, as a pending wiki update that was set to repair this tool has been delayed due to COVID-19 reasons. If you instead rather create a new account and edit from that one instead, just let me know and we can get that sorted too.

== Username change request ==
 
I made a request to change my username some time ago but it never happened despite being approved. Check my talk page if necessary. I'm kind of just having to have my sig say it right now and it feels incredibly awkward; as if I'm impersonating myself. Are you able to get it put through? --[[User:Plague von Karma|<span style="color: #e68;">'''Plague'''</span>]][[User talk:Plague von Karma|<span style="color: #e68;">''' von Karma'''</span>]] 12:14, 24 June 2020 (UTC)
:Hey there. So unfortunately since that message I left you, the global username feature has gone down and we aren't able to fulfill any new username requests until technical wiki staff have an opportunity to install the next Mediawiki update, but this has been delayed due to COVID-19 related issues. We have been giving users the option to create a new account under the desired username if you did not want to wait that long, because I am unsure of when this update will be happening so I do not want you to have to remain in limbo for that long. However, per the {{bp|Signature policy}}, your signature should be a reflection of your ''current'' username and should link to your username or talk page. I would advise you to please change it back to your previous signature until the renaming issues/process is resolved. Please let me know if you have any other questions I can answer and sorry for the inconvenience.

== Johto/Kanto map ==
 
I've just spotted [https://www.pinterest.co.uk/pin/360991726365387487/?nic_v1=1aY7M14ICcmaDJZPc3Z4CHYV6J0QhuVyWfBYa65qtG0Zj2qtbXzhqYKm41tGczWkZ4 this Johto and Kanto map] on Pinterest. Do we know anything about it? I know a number of places were supposed to look a bit different, most notably the [[Lake of Rage]] was supposed to have a gym, and I was wondering if this was an early prototype map. Or a poor forgery, I don't know.--[[User:Tmwps|Tmwps]] ([[User talk:Tmwps|talk]]) 07:53, 28 June 2020 (UTC)
