User talk:SharKing

Welcome

Welcome to Bulbapedia, SharKing!

As a new user, you may wish to learn a few things that will be useful in your editing:

• For a basic overview of wiki code, see this page.
• The manual of style is very important. Make sure to read it. It outlines all official policies of Bulbapedia.
• Keep an eye on the Messages from the Editor on the main page, to stay informed on current events on Bulbapedia.
• The word Pokémon is spelled with a capital P and an accented é. The é can be accessed by holding Alt and typing either 130 or 0233 on a Windows computer, and by using Option + e, then e again on a Mac. Otherwise, you can easily click it in the character palette below the editbox.
• The word Poké Ball is spelled as two words. The "Poké" part is identical to the four beginning letters in "Pokémon"; "Ball" is spelled with a capital B. The spelling "Pokéball" arises frequently, but is incorrect.
• The word "you" and all forms of it should not be used on encyclopedic pages unless it is a quote from Pokémon or other media. Bulbapedia is an encyclopedia, not a walkthrough.
• On talk pages, please sign your comments with four tildes (~~~~).
• The use of link templates is official policy. For an explanation on their use, see the page on shortlinks.
• If you happen to spot a vandal in the recent changes that has not been dealt with, please see this page for how to deal with it.
• A list of pages that are linked to, but have not been created, can be found at this page. A list of short articles that may require more information can be found here, while a list of articles that need improvement can be found here.
• For a future capture, release, trade, or evolution of a Pokémon belonging to a main character of the anime, please do not create or move the page to reflect your suspicions, even if they are shared by many others. Policy here is to wait until the episode in which the event happens takes place is aired, unless there is substantial evidence for the suspicion (such as Brock's Happiny being held in his arms).
• Image uploading is done on Bulbagarden Archives, a separate wiki accessible through the toolbox in the sidebar. This is done so that both Bulbapedia and Bulbanews have access to the images uploaded. To activate your account at the Archives and Bulbanews, please login there using the same username and password you use here on Bulbapedia.
• If you want to make a page about a character you made up, please create it at User:SharKing/(name), not merely (name). Bulbapedia's main namespace is reserved for actual, official Pokémon, items, characters, and locations. Also, please try to make sure that subpages are not categorized by templates used within.
• Having said this, please make sure that you do contribute adequately to the main namespace. Bulbapedia is not MySpace or Facebook.
• A list of the admins that you can contact in case of a problem can be found here.

Thank you, and have a good time editing here! --tc26 13:49, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Pardon, but...

Use the link templates, don't say [[Sand-Attack (move)|Sand Attack]], just use {{m|Sand Attack}}. It's less of a pain in the ass and it's official policy anyway. Also, useless trivia for the types, such as them being the "only" thing that is weak/resistant/immune to something is pretty discouraged. TTEchidna 23:17, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

Sorry.

I didn't know. I was only trying to help Bulbapedia be as detailed as possible. Cut me some slack. I'm still new here. I still need time to get used to things.

Please

Don't create articles for Pokémon belonging to characters of the day. They are among the least-notable characters in the anime who deserve an article. --PAK Man ^Talk 20:26, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Sho's Raichu

Pokémon belonging to one-time characters are not notable. I'm sorry, but the page will have to be deleted. --electAbuzzzz ^(TALK) 20:26, 2 September 2008 (UTC)

Questions

Sorry to bother you, but I'm new and I have a question. I was looking through a couple of articles, and I saw that the names of video games were not in italics. I checked out BP:MOS#Formatting_preferences, and it mentioned that episodes were to be italicized, but I couldn't find anything about italicizing the names of games. Is there a policy that says they shouldn't be in italics? Or can I italicize them? Thanks. Blastoise 21:38, 12 September 2008 (UTC)

Type2 template

Try putting {{type2|whatever type you want}} instead of {{t|whatever type you want}}-type. --ニョロトノ666 21:25, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Seriously. --ニョロトノ666 21:31, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

You seem to be a competent battler

Hi, im DCM and i was wondering if you cared to battle? im always looking for new people to battle, and i think you sound pretty good. im a part of a league called the IPGLso, id prefer if you contacted me there for the battle. the BP admins dont like this sort of stuff on talk pages. --DCM_{((TalkContributions))} 23:20, 23 September 2008 (UTC)

Please

Slow down on editing the User: namespace. Editing your userpage too much will lead to it being locked again. Instead of making multiple small edits, why not instead use the preview button (Alt + Shift + P) to check your edits before saving the page? Thank you. --^Moldy_Orange 21:28, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Signatures

The new Signature Policy states that no one is allowed to have images in their signature anymore. They are distracting and unneeded. Please refrain from adding images to your signature. ^Moldy_Orange 21:28, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

All right. I won't include moving Sharpedo pics. SharKing

Pokémon Platinum Version

Hi! I saw your question on your User Page, and from what I hear DS games are region free! This might help [1] Hope it did --Britannia's Blade 21:51, 28 September 2008 (UTC)

Hey

Looks like you found my secret page. I didn't really think anyone would find it at first....how did you find it? It's amazing...--☆Tavisource 02:54, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

I was looking around for users who showed some powerful battling Pokémon when I came across your page. Then, that orange banner of yours intrigued me. I thought: "Secret page? Could it be what I'm looking for?" Then, the rest is history. SharKing 03:00, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Powerful trainers you mean? Then you should go here: [[2]]. That is the International Pokémon Gym League, featuring eight powerful gym leaders from Bulbapedia. You can always battle them whenever they're open and win badges.--☆Tavisource 03:47, 5 October 2008 (UTC)

Bleh

I was gonna add you under another section. Im just really lazy. Ill finish a little more by tomorrow--DCM_{((Nag at Me!Edits))}

Thank you.

Finally! Someone understands! Dialgarules 21:22, 11 November 2008 (UTC)

Sho's Raichu

I mostly wanted to do it because Sho's Raichu is totally awesome. However, yes, I agree that it was semi-noticable, seeing as how it was another chance to show that Pikachu will NEVER become a Raichu. . No matter how much I want it to.- unsigned comment from ShinjiLover (talk • contribs)

Oops!

I'm SO glad that they have the 'edit' options in these User talks. . I always seem to foget my signature! I hate being a newbie. I'm probably not going to get too flashy until I learn a little more about Bulbapedia.

My User Page

I just don't want a userpage. That's all there is to it. — THE TROM — 20:04, 25 November 2008 (UTC)

Hey...

I have 6 lvl 100s and get on shoddy battle, lets see who is better around here, while i cant right now, how about maybe monday. Atomix26 16:15, 28 November 2008 (UTC) (its not nice to make fun of others)

Oh and BTW

I never got bak to you on this.The attack is the DAy Santa Clause breaks into your home and eats all of your cookies.DCM_{((Shut the **** upSpy on My Edits))}

Oh, I get the joke. You're Darth Cookie Monster, and you don't want Santa eating your cookies. --SharKing _{((Talk to the King!))} 15:45, 30 November 2008 (UTC)

Your Fakémon

Yes, I saw! =] That's what made me inspired to put up MY Fakémon.
Also, thank you sooo much for the Japanese symbols for their names! How do you get those? I also need one for the first evolved form of my Fakémon, Ryumi.

ShinjiLover 00:51, 2 December 2008 (UTC)

Me Again, Y'know? The Pain in the Ass?

Hey, Kingy! Can I call ya Kingy? Anyway, I had a request. Is there any way that you can get the name 'Nareta' in Kanji (or whatever you use, I have no clue. .)? Please and thank you! If you can't, that's fine. =]

Love, ShinjiLover 03:21, 12 December 2008 (UTC), who is still working on getting a better siggy.

Yay! =D Thanks soooo much!

Love, ShinjiLover, who is still working on getting a better siggy.

Hey there! Finally got off my ass and made a signature! Yay! I used your idea and colors. What do you think?

Love, シンジ_ShinjiLover, who finally got off her ass and made a decent signature.

RE: What a weird coincidence.

Yes, it's really a weird coincidence... it would have been weirder if we've been born on the same day xD !!!
C U soon...bye bye! --DarkSally_{(complaints department)} 19:35, 16 December 2008 (UTC)
ps: your page about Sharkruel is fantastic... congratulations!

Er...if we had been born on the same day... sorry for the mistake :P --DarkSally_{(complaints department)} 12:33, 17 December 2008 (UTC)

Hey,

I noticed that you play Trozei and Mystery Dungeon 2. I have some questions about them. Could you post on my talk page when you have the chance?--MisterE13 17:48, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

If you're willing to talk about this, please do it on the forums or via IM / e-mail instead, it doesn't belong here to the wiki talk pages. UltimateSephiroth ^{(about me · chat · edits)} 17:53, 19 December 2008 (UTC)

I want to know which Pokémon have alternate form sprites so I can make templates that show them. Nothing else.--MisterE13 18:31, 19 December 2008 (UTC)
