This article still needs a lot of expansion

This article still needs a lot of expansion. It still needs more info on the characters in the various manga, more characters from the anime, more info on the characters who play major roles in Pokémon Chronicles, and more info from the Hoenn saga of the anime. I don't know who's a minor one-off character and who's an important recurring character from any of those, so my placement in Recurring and Minor is just a guess.

Just a note: I've consciously not placed any of the Pokémon Chronicles main characters in the Main Characters section because I was under the impression that it was a side-story to the main anime, and all of the characters are recurring characters from the main anime. If Pokémon Chronicles has a proper protagonist, could someone please place that character in the proper section? - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 19:06, 1 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

Deletion

I deleted the "Unshowen Characters" section because it didn't have any links.

And made no sense...

Discuss it's worth here. --Highway 22:23, 21 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

hazel from MPJ doesn't count. MPJ doesn't count as real pokemon.

Can we have ?

Can we have a place to talk about the champions, their line ups in more material?? --194.81.46.167 12:55, 27 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

This article is not the place to go into detail about any characters. Additionally, Wikipedia isn't the place to go into a great deal of detail about their lineups (particularly movesets and levels and strategies); for that, try Wikibooks or GameFAQs. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 17:50, 29 January 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Question

Could I write up information on Ash from the 'Electric Tale of Pikachu' manga series? Thing is, the Ash from the series is very different from the Anime version of Ash. Though, I guess it would be confusing to have two separate sections for two Ashs. Any thought? User talk:Super_Staff 23:17, 27 September 2006 I supose you could have one artical were you compare the two ashes...--Pika17 (talk) 13:41, 20 August 2008 (UTC)[reply]

Harley

Is it neccesary to say that Harley is a 'homosexuel'? I would rv it as vandalism, but I'm not sure if I want to clear any other info that had been added since then. UberVash 21:35, 24 December 2006 (UTC)[reply]

Ther's no proof, though that's probably the point the writers were trying to make. Harley was most likely created as a jab at Western homosexual stereotypes.

That depends on whether you consider him fliritng with Brock in Harley Rides Again to be proof. It doesn't really affect things in the show much so it doesn't have to be in there unless you want to add that he is a stereotype. --Sonic Mew 11:46, 1 May 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I'm not being homophobic, but based on Harley's actions, behavior, attire and "air", it could be said that Harley is in fact a homosexual. But this could also be a comical "jab" at today's homosexuals.

I read the whole Harley thing twice and it does not say the word: homosexual anywhere.Sorry If I was rude. (LatiRider 05:22, 24 June 2007 (UTC))[reply]
Homosexual, maybe. Bishōnen definitely. Perhaps you could use that word instead? -- RoninBK T C 23:36, 16 July 2007 (UTC)[reply]
It should at least MENTION Harley's flamboyance in this article, since it is a major part of his character. Hananoshi 15:58, 3 September 2008 (UTC) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Hananoshi (talkcontribs)

The Recurring Cousins

Is there a reason that Nurse Joy has her own page while Officer Jenny does not? It just seems rather uneven. Toadette Fan 23:13, 2 January 2007 (UTC)[reply]

Agreed. Even though they aren't featured often game-wise, they should still get their own article.--Tempest115 20:36, 26 March 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Drew

I think He should also have his own page.It needs to be detailed his dealings with May, Harvey, and Ash's group

Diamond/Pearl Rival's name?

Does the blond rival in Diamond/Pearl have any official name yet?

I heard people calling him Jun.

I call him Tyson.

But what's his "REAL" name? I heard a lot of people calling him Damion or something too.

It is still uknown yet, or like the FRLG heroes has no known name. I refer to him as Thomas. LatiRider 05:25, 24 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]
I heard it's Cory. Because his theme is "Cory's theme"? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 149.175.100.35 (talk) 01:16, 10 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
Still unknown, but i saw a youtube vid and there was this one picture. i wish i could find it. it had dawn standing next to the rival from the game. maybe i was seeing things or something, but the backround looked like the outdoor table from D/P episode... i forgot. OH! the one before "settling a not so old score". but the dawn and rival thing could be an edit thing. who knows. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 76.223.132.61 (talk) 01:33, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]
The rival has no "official" name. Special calls him "Pearl." "Jun" is one of the default Japanese names. "Corey" must be the result of confusion; Lucas's Japanese name is "Kōki" (resulting in "Kōki's Theme").—Loveはドコ? (talkcontribs) 01:49, 11 December 2007 (UTC)[reply]

I clicked on the Michael Link on this page yet it led to Pokemon XD. Is it broken or is it supposed to do that? LatiRider 05:28, 24 June 2007 (UTC)[reply]


Is the part about Mimi just vandalisum or is it real?

Names of the characters in Gold / Silver / Crystal?

What are the official names of these characters? Not assumed names, but real ones? A lot of people call the male playable character Gold and the rival Silver, but that seems to have no official source. The female protagonist of Crystal, however, is named Kris, as seen in the back of the game's box. Pokemon Stadium 2 calls the rival "Rival". So is the male protagonist nameless? Or are there any sources backing up the names of the male character and rival (besides anime and manga since they're a separate continuity). 208.101.173.66 20:52, 5 August 2007 (UTC)[reply]

"Kris" is the default name for the female protagonist in the English version. The default name for the rival in Crystal Version is Silver. This leaves "Gold" for the male protagonist (though his default name in Crystal Version is "Chris", and "Silver" in Silver Version.) —Preceding unsigned comment added by 71.141.193.115 (talk) 02:58, 17 June 2008 (UTC)[reply]

He deserves a page, or at least a photo. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Knowledgeabletome (talkcontribs) 04:26, 6 March 2009 (UTC)[reply]

List overhaul

I think that this needs to be completely redone. It should be named List of Pokémon video game characters. Most of this is repeated info from Pokémon Adventures protagonists, List of characters in the Pokémon anime series, Pokémon crime syndicates, and the List of **** Gym Leaders. What isnt in other lists should be Video Game characters. It can have the main characters, professors, NPCs, Gym Leaders(Links to the main lists), Elite Four, and tag battle partners. --Blake (talk) 21:48, 26 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

I just cleaned up the list here in my userspace and moved the E4, since they take up so much room, to annother page that can be named List of Elite Four members. They are just rough drafts and can be fixed up more. Is this something we want to try though? I can try and find references from guides if we want to do this and I can make the E4 page like the List of **** Gym Leaders and add references from the anime, manga, and maybe even game guidebooks if I get enough time.
Don’t say they aren’t notable or they don’t deserve a page or something though, because right now they are sitting there and look really ugly. This is a BIG help. --Blake (talk) 00:17, 27 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I'm not sure... they seems like indiscriminate lists that lack any verifiable, third-party sources. Perhaps a more appropriate venue is AfD? Artichoker[talk] 20:15, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
What? It diddnt need to be deleted before, but now that I touched it it needs to be deleted? -.- This is getting annoying. Can you link me to the guidelines for lists? Why do they need 3rd party sources? They should only need those if it is going to be a real article. Lists don't need that stuff, otherwise they would be articles. --Blake (talk) 21:35, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
Not sure what you mean by not being deleted before, but if no verifiable, third-party sources to establish notability can be found, then I don't think it needs to be around. Anyways, here's the guideline for lists: Wikipedia:Lists. Per "Lists, whether they are embedded lists or stand-alone lists, are encyclopedic content as are paragraphs and articles, and they are equally subject to Wikipedia's content policies such as Verifiability, No original research, Neutral point of view, and others." lists do indeed need 3rd party sources. Artichoker[talk] 21:43, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]
I mean that the list is there right now. It looks very bad and repeats alot of information. The only information that isnt repeated somewhere else is the Video Game characters. I think this is a big help to the article to change it like this. Also, if you want the Elite Four can stay where they are in the article. It just needs some official game guide references for some of the characters. --Blake (talk) 22:07, 29 June 2009 (UTC)[reply]

New Page 4 the Elite 4

The Elite Four Members are all notable enough to have their own page. All the other randoms can stay on this page, but there should be a page just for Elite Four Members. It would make this page less bulky and would give these important game characters the fame they deserve. 2D Backfire Master (talk) 15:56, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

As you can see from the above discussion, I did make a page for the E4, but I ended up just merging it here after fixing it up. Without them there really arent many characters unique to this list. If you find some good sources about them that let them warent an article, then go ahead. The list would look alot better without it, but without the E4 on this list, it wont have many characters here that make the list need an article. Blake (Talk·Edits) 22:14, 12 August 2009 (UTC)[reply]

Elite Four

Shouldn't the Elite Four for each region be split into a separate article like we've done for the Gym Leaders? --70.129.186.69 (talk) 02:05, 1 September 2009 (UTC)[reply]
