Revision as of 07:17, 16 February 2013


Reference to Podkamennaya Tunguska River in the Japanese releases of the main series Generation I games and their Generation III remakes

So I had added this to Podkamennaya Tunguska River without thinking twice but then decided to ask it on the talk page of WP:WikiProject Russia and the conclusion that it isn't meant for that article was reached by both parties and that it would be better to ask here. I just deleted my addition to the article.

My question is: to which article(s) covered by WikiProject Pokémon should this be added? Basically, it's that in the original Japanese releases of the main series Generation I games (Red/Green/Blue/Yellow) and their original pair Generation III remakes (FireRed/LeafGreen), a Scientist on 6F of Silph Co. during the Team Rocket invasion indirectly mentions Podkamennaya Tunguska by claiming that the company has a Russian branch in Ponaya Tunguska (ポナヤツングスカ, Ponaya Tsungusuka). This was altered for the English localizations, where refers to the branch as being located in the Russian city of Tiksi instead.

Also, I don't have his Japanese dialogue from before the battle but do have from after it. Here it is (as in Generation I): ポナヤツングスカ してん? ああ⋯⋯ ロシアの おくの ほうだよ. The equivalent English dialogue is (again, as in Generation I): TIKSI BRANCH? It's in Russian no man's land!

Overall, it is trivia, which is discouraged, and really minor trivia at that. It doesn't add much to the article, and should not be added. If it was more then a passing mention, and there were third party sources discussing it, it may have been different. Blake (Talk·Edits) 21:35, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]
I see. At best, it's speculated that it was changed to avoid controversy related to the Tunguska event of 1908. But that is just speculation after all. 85.246.176.112 (talk) 22:09, 9 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Missing information on the Development section about Gold/Silver

The Development section of Pokémon Gold and Silver is missing information prior to 1999, such as the games' release being originally scheduled for late 1997 and the names clearly announcing the games as sequels to Red/Green, "Pocket Monsters 2: Gold & Silver". 85.241.123.122 (talk) 14:36, 14 December 2012 (UTC)[reply]

Generation 6: Pokemon X and Y

I've just been checking Bulbapedia and Generation 6 is being released the games will called Pokemon X and Y, I'm not sure what could be an official source but anyone who has CoroCoro or any other manga magazine can back up bulbapedia--Lerdthenerd wiki defender 20:19, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]

We have an article on the new games, though it's a little sparse at the moment as so little has been officially announced. The actual games were announced on the official Pokémon website(s) anyway, so no need for any translations yet! BulbaThor (talk) 22:41, 16 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Yes I believe we also have articles on the new Pokemon, if not we need to do so as there are currently 5 whose names, appearances and types and other small tots of information has been release. Rainbow Shifter (talk) 17:43, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Last generation was a bit messy, so doing it nice and clean this time would be nice. I say we go ahead and create List of Pokémon (650-). Blake (Talk·Edits) 20:49, 29 January 2013 (UTC)[reply]
The problem would be towards how would we number them with having any references to do so? --Super Goku V (talk) 21:38, 7 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

Article on Reshiram, Zekrom and Kyurem

I would like to try creating an article for Reshiram, Zekrom and Kyurem in my userspace; by now, they've probably been covered enough by sources to pass the notability guidelines, and gathering enough sources for the article will verify whether that's indeed the case. Are there any procedures to follow for making the article and passing it by admins to see if it can be moved to the mainspace? Eh! Steve (talk) 05:25, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]

You can nominate an existing draft or user sandbox to Articles for Creation by adding the template {{subst:submit}} to the top of the user page. This will place it in review and if passed will be moved to the main space. See Wikipedia:Articles for creation for more info. Salavat (talk) 05:46, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
Here's the article in progress; the infobox doesn't seem to be working, is it supposed to be that way for userspace pages? Also, is there a way to allow other users to contribute? Eh! Steve (talk) 07:15, 16 February 2013 (UTC)[reply]
