message: Why did all these Pokёmon articles have to be merged? In my opinion, they were fine as their own individual articles like every other Pokēmon.

replies: text: Not only do the individual articles fail WP:N (there needs to be significant coverage of them in secondary (non-official) sources), but WP:FICT states to merge minor characters (these are obviously minor characters) into a list. --Teggles 02:52, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

text: I'm not so sure about that, but I won't toss it out the window; might be possible although we would have to make a new template for it. Opinions anyone? -WarthogDemon 03:19, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: Well I've asked what I think you're asking for on the Wikiproject talk page. -WarthogDemon 03:25, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: And to add on to that, the thing is the little infoboxes on the lists already show the type and name and what it evolves from and too . . . that just leaves generation, height, and weight an I'm not too sure if that'll be worth creating boxes for. Not being a pessimist, but just throwing in my two cents. -WarthogDemon 03:29, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
thread_title:  Bad descision 

message: As this list is supposed to be a prototype, and the articles were merged due to referencing problems in the first place, it ought to have perfect and thorough references. As of now, it has none. --The Raven's Apprentice (PokéNav|Trainer Card) 15:42, 1 July 2007 (UTC)

message: This really seems kind of pointless and all around irritating to me. Not all of us fans use Bulbapedia, as it's not very easily navigable to some extent, and it's also extremely slow compared to this site.
I'm sure I'm not the only one that thinks the pokemon need to just stick with their own page for each species. I can imagine many others were as stunned as I was when they went to look up information on a Pokemon and they suddenly got some half-arsed list that tells absolutely nothing. I mean, it doesn't even give height/weight information anymore! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.140.12.65 (talk) 
:New comments to the bottom! Height/weight is a totally negligible aspect of gameplay, even though it's verifiable. And mind mentioning what other information can be mentioned using reliable sources, eliminating episode synopses and game guides and supposed name origins? --The Raven's Apprentice (PokéNav|Trainer Card) 14:30, 9 July 2007 (UTC)
replies: text: As for supposed name origins, the list should include ones with obvious origins. I mean, your basic retard can tell "Ekans" is "snake" backwards and "Turtwig" is a portmanteux of Turtle and Twig. 70.44.146.95 01:20, 27 July 2007 (UTC)

thread_title: What's the point?!

message: :Image:Pinpuku.png is being used on this article. I notice the image page specifies that the image is being used under fair use but there is no explanation or rationale as to why its use in this Wikipedia article constitutes fair use. In addition to the boilerplate fair use template, you must also write out on the image description page a specific explanation or rationale for why using this image in each article is consistent with fair use.
Please go to the image description page and edit it to include a fair use rationale. Using one of the templates at Wikipedia:Fair use rationale guideline is an easy way to insure that your image is in compliance with Wikipedia policy, but remember that you must complete the template. Do not simply insert a blank template on an image page.
If there is  other fair use media, consider checking that you have specified the fair use rationale on the other images used on this page.  Note that any fair use images uploaded after 4 May, 2006, and lacking such an explanation will be deleted one week after they have been uploaded, as described on criteria for speedy deletion.

message: Is the part about the Gengar/Skuntank bowling trophy true? I've beaten PMD2 and I see no clue of that. Is it after you get Master Rank?  —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.210.168.207 (talk) 18:36, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
