Talk:Tentacruel

A Man In Black; could you please explain why you see deleting most of the article's information as a form of clean-up? Basically, you are saying that this article contains too much information. If the information is correct, how can an article have too much information? And besides, we all know your likes for cutting and merging articles, so your POV about this may be biased.

I was thinking it should be brought in line with WP:PAC/S, with most of raw game info/statistics (which aren't encyclopedic) prosified, with the raw stats moved over to the Pokémon Wikibook.

Ideally, it'd look more like the Bulbasaur or Charizard articles. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 22:30, 17 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]

9/11

I added this to the article (in italics):

This episode was banned for some time in the USA after the September 11, 2001 attacks because there appeared some scenes in which towers were destroyed by the attacking Pokémon. A clip from this episode of Tentacruel striking down a skyscraper was included in a montage at the beginning of each Pokémon episode during the first series' theme song, much to the dismay of the show's producers.

Perhaps that sentence needs rewriting/additional info.. I'm not entirely sure if the scene in the montage was "to the dismay of the show's producers", as there is a possibility that the clip of Tentacruel is too vague--i.e. it doesn't look like Tentacruel is specifically striking down a skyscraper--although I haven't seen the show's first-season theme song in a long time.

You forgot to sign, WindFsh.

I'm gonna remove that line. By fall 2001, the US was already into the Johto Journeys arc, which is the second or third intro, and didn't include the Tentacruel scene in the montage any more. - A Man In Black (Talk | Contribs) 05:40, 30 September 2005 (UTC)[reply]
