That is not how you sort articles into categories. Go read the manual of style. --Pie ~♪♫ 20:55, 16 April 2007 (UTC)
When typing the names of Pokémon and moves, please use the link templates. For example, use {{p|Giratina}} instead of [[Giratina]]. Likewise, use {{m|Fly}} instead of [[Fly]]. Otherwise, you could unwittingly link to a disambiguation page. --PAK Man Talk 15:35, 29 July 2007 (UTC)
Sorry, i'm still getting used to things.
Please do not link to images from other web sites. If you want to add an image, please upload it to the Bulbagarden Archives and link to it by typing [[Image:IMAGENAME]]. Thank you. --PAK Man Talk 04:43, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
We don't need articles for a Pokémon that belonged to a character of the day, as they are not notable enough for their own article. --PAK Man Talk 23:53, 27 August 2007 (UTC)

It needs to use Multitype to get its unique property. An ability.
Theryguy512 is AWESOME!
Hi, you probably don't know my Bulbapedia self but I just wanna say that you are one of the coolest users ever! Pokemon look-alikes and the Pokemon ABC are true masterpieces! PLEASE visit my page! It may not be much but I could only dream that you would visit it! If you do visit it and want to give me any advice please edit my User Talk!

Slash? A sash is something that you tie around yourself, like a cloth belt. It's Focus Sash, for future reference. TTEchidna 01:38, 29 August 2007 (UTC)
Sorry, I guess I mispelled it....I'm kinda tired....Ryguy
It's vs its.
The difference is that "it's" always means "it is", while "its" refers to anything belonging to something referred to as an it. TTEchidna 00:35, 2 September 2007 (UTC)
- Okay, you guys. I'm only going to sing this one more time: Oh... If you want to be possessive, it's just I-T-S, but if it's supposed to be a contraction, it's I-T-apostrophe-S. Scalawag. --DarkfireTaimatsu 00:42, 2 September 2007 (UTC)

Actually you're wrong. She caught one in EP213. (at least acording to that article, I'm currently using school computer so I can't use my DVD to check.)
Anyway, I know she didn't catch it on EP122 because I know she caught it on a Master Quest episode. But you were right to remove it from that episode though. TheBlazikenMaster 09:41, 14 September 2007 (UTC)

Pikachu
I must ask for a single reason why the species should not be treated as the primary article over members of the species. - A Link to the Past 21:29, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- That's the way Pokémon species articles are on Bulbapedia. I completely support Theryguy512's actions. --Shiny NoctowlTalk | Fun 21:31, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- So both reasons provided for me so far is "this is how it is, so there". Can I get a reason that explains why it's this way? - A Link to the Past 21:33, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- And why? Do you simply not know? - A Link to the Past 21:33, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- Ask TTEchidna 03:03, 15 September 2007 (UTC) for anything --User:Theryguy512
- See this part of the manual of style. --Shiny NoctowlTalk | Fun 21:36, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- Theryguy, I shall not respond to your posts as if they existed to exist if you do not do the same. Answer my question, you clearly are doing it for a reason, and brushing me off because you cannot provided a logical rationale does not sit well with me.
- And Shiny Noctowl, that does NOT answer my question. I know what disambig is, I've made many on Wikipedia, have edited many more, have made multiple featured articles, and have made more than 20,000 edits on Wikipedia, several thousands of those being made in the months of March, April, and May. I do not need to be educated as to what disambig means, but I would like to know why your disambig set-up is so radically different from Wikipedia's. The Mario article on Wikipedia isn't a disambig page for the simple reason that the majority of people searching for Mario will be searching for the video game character, not the hockey player or the writer. Conversely, what will people be looking for when they search for Pikachu? - A Link to the Past 21:40, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- See this part of the manual of style. --Shiny NoctowlTalk | Fun 21:36, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- It's for consistency so that all Pokémon articles have the same naming pattern. --Shiny NoctowlTalk | Contribs 21:42, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- Have all compents and complants go to User Talk:Evkl not me. --User:Theryguy512
- And why aren't they consistently placed at the main article instead of the disambig page? Is there any single Pokémon which people would search for one single individual Pokémon (ie, search for the anime Lugia or the anime Bulbasaur) over the species?
- If you don't want to be involved, don't revert. Not discussing something that you willingly became involved in by reverting my move is blatantly unhelpful and disrupts Bulbapedia. - A Link to the Past 21:45, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- Have all compents and complants go to User Talk:Evkl not me. --User:Theryguy512
- People would search for the anime Meowth over the species. --Shiny NoctowlTalk | Contribs 21:46, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- I would enjoy to see some evidence of that. One major feature of Bulbapedia is guide content, so I dispute the very claim that the character of Meowth would be searched for more often than the species Meowth. But for the Hell of it, let's say that what you say is true. You found one case out 493 that supports your argument, versus my 492/493 cases. Why should we side with you, who can't even provide 1% as much weight for your cause that I have? - A Link to the Past 21:50, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- People would search for the anime Meowth over the species. --Shiny NoctowlTalk | Contribs 21:46, 16 September 2007 (UTC)
- It's a lot easier to click the link on the disambig page to go to the species or to any of the specific Pokémon of that species than it is to, from the species page, click a link to the disambig page, and then a link to the article about the specific Pokémon. --Shiny NoctowlTalk | Contribs 21:05, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
- And I have more or less shown that people looking for a member of the species more often than the species itself is the exception, not the rule, so why cater to the exceptions? The only examples provided can be major characters in the anime or manga - ie, Pikachu, Meowth, and Mewtwo. Would anyone do this for Octillery? Qwilfish? Ursaring? - A Link to the Past 22:24, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
- It's a lot easier to click the link on the disambig page to go to the species or to any of the specific Pokémon of that species than it is to, from the species page, click a link to the disambig page, and then a link to the article about the specific Pokémon. --Shiny NoctowlTalk | Contribs 21:05, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
- Which is easier: clicking one link for anything, or clicking two links for anything? --Shiny NoctowlTalk | Contribs 12:27, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
- Really, I thought that that very argument was used by my side (too much clicking for getting to the important subjects), and the defenders of the disambig set-up shot it down. - A Link to the Past 14:40, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
- Which is easier: clicking one link for anything, or clicking two links for anything? --Shiny NoctowlTalk | Contribs 12:27, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
- If there's the disambig at the Pokémon's name, you have to click one link for anything, which is a lot easier than the two links you would have to click if the disambig was on a separate page and the species article was on the main page for that name. --Shiny NoctowlTalk | Contribs 20:37, 18 September 2007 (UTC)
- In the vast majority of cases, people would not have to click two links, because they got what they came for - the species page. By my count, 293 Pokémon do not have disambig pages, but are disambiged anyway. - A Link to the Past 23:40, 19 September 2007 (UTC)

- If we put (disambiguiation) behind every disambig. page, we would need disambiguiation for disambguiations. Admit it, Link, You've been defeated. Optimus35Talk | DP 13:23, 21 September 2007 (UTC)
- So what mechanic of this Wiki causes this to happen? Since it doesn't happen on Wikipedia, which would be much more likely for this to happen, but it never does. Is there any reason why this Wiki has to have different policies on disambig from Wikipedia, who created the policy and expanded it over time. - A Link to the Past 03:50, 22 September 2007 (UTC)

Technically, Wikipedia has a mix of both 'blah blah blah' (Disambig.) And just plain old 'blah blah blah'...

About the Pikachu disambiguation
I know you were just trying to help with the Pikachu page back there, but in the future, just simply move the page back to its original title. If that won't work, please notify an administrator so the problem can be corrected.
Also, I've noticed that every time you post a talk page comment, you type your name manually. There's actually a much easier way to do that. Just type ~~~~ at the end of your posts, and your name will appear, along with a time stamp. Additionally, you can also use the U link template to link to user articles. For example, if you type {{u|PAK Man}}, it's the same as typing [[User:PAK Man|PAK Man]]. Just thought I'd help make your life easier. --PAK Man Talk 01:10, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
Thanks. Oh, and thanks for helping with my Anime Pokémon template. Theryguy512 01:15, 17 September 2007 (UTC)
Dawn's Buizel
I can see why the Ash's Aipom will evolve into Ambipom is not needed. I thought I'd do it for Dawn's Buizel so I get people to stop posting the same fake rumors about the trade it will not happen. But thanks for telling me about that though. :D

Anime episodes.
I just want to say you did one hell of a job on all the pictures, I assume you have those episodes on DVD. Good job. TheBlazikenMaster 14:18, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- Um, no. I just put in the pics from the list of anime episodes.
P.S. I'm planning to do all of them so don't do them for me! Theryguy512 19:09, 19 September 2007 (UTC)
- I have no interests in that, don't worry. I only added the picture of Gary's Arcanine for one episode because I noticed we have one, and I knew it would fit, I won't add pictures for any more episodes, because I have no interests in that. TheBlazikenMaster 07:57, 20 September 2007 (UTC)

Link templates
Use them alla. [[Seriously. And i real mean that. Before any edits, I also recommend you to search after the "question" when you shall edit the "Did you know..." template, or editing a topic. Did you for example know that there is a topic for Pokémon Gold and Silver remakes? Also, when linking to other articles starting with "Pokémon", you shouldn't write [[Pokémon Diamond and Pearl|Diamond and Pearl]], but {{pkmn|Diamond and Pearl}} to link to Diamond and Pearl. This can, of course, be used on all other articles starting with "Pokémon". In other means, instead of only games to you shall also write {{pkmn|anime}} to link to anime. THis shall also be used for games, Trading Card Game, Live!, Special etc. Also, a few Pokémon won't use the {{TP|Trainer|Pokémon}}. A few examples is the anime-Mewtwo, wich link shall be [[Mewtwo (anime)]], Team Rocket's Meowth with link shall be [[Meowth (Team Rocket)]] and games Red's Pikachu, with link shall be [[Red's Pikachu (game)]].

Sorry about that.
But I still find redlinks harmful, since they're misleading. Next time I will be more careful, I will just leave it be. Once I'm done with making real articles on what's now redlinks, it won't be harmful anymore. I now understand the point, again, I'm sorry for the uesless articles.
