Hey Blake,
I just wanted to apologize for my post overwriting yours. It wasn't intentional and I didn't notice it until you reposted. I'm not sure how it happened as I didn't get an edit conflict, but my browser did crash and reopen the editing page automatically when I restarted and I guess this caused it to ignore your post. I'm sorry for the inconvenience and any perceived rudeness. — Ost ( talk) 15:54, 15 September 2009 (UTC)
Thanks for fixing that, I've had one helluva day and I was a bit off my game as a result there.-- Kung Fu Man ( talk) 02:44, 24 September 2009 (UTC)
You have been mentioned at WP:AN3#multiple users at Bulbasaur (Result: ).— Kww( talk) 18:45, 25 September 2009 (UTC)
I came here to give you a barnstar, but just noticed that Kung Fu Man beat me to it... Meh, I'll give you one anyway. :)

Might be a good idea to combine the descriptions of its appearance together into one paragraph, since some constants do persist. Then we can cover their traits in three paragraphs following that with shared ones combined. It'd provide a smoother article as a result.-- Kung Fu Man ( talk) 21:23, 30 September 2009 (UTC)
Accidentally gave Kung Fu one too since I thought he made the article, but ah well, he's done a lot of work anyway. x3 Congratulations! To paraphrase what I said, I literally said "what the Hell" when I saw this in a category! - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 04:14, 1 October 2009 (UTC)
It's a bit of a roundabout way of finding it, but I can guarantee that the chapters with Jynx will be found in here somewhere (if you were referring to Adventures/Special anyways). Happy hunting. MelicansMatkin ( talk, contributions) 00:16, 4 October 2009 (UTC)
I think I've tapped all I could (still got a few bits to add), and from the looks of it Magikarp, Gyarados, and Gengar might work down the line if more comes out, with Venonat, Scyther and Haunter on the sidelines as lesser possibilities. With that said I think we should be fine developing the ones I put up there at WT:POKE, the only one I'm worrying about in any way is Lucario but it shouldn't be too bad (anime reviews may help immensely there), though Anime News Network and Mania.com were already a bust in that regard.
Still, 13 articles back when we were pretty much on the ropes is shaping up to make this a good year for the project.-- Kung Fu Man ( talk) 01:33, 5 October 2009 (UTC)

An IGN staffer ended up continuing the "Pokemon of the Day" articles in 2002 and beyond, notably with less insanity than the previous one that had a ton of articles but very few usable. I haven't been through the entire archive but it should give some bulk. I disregarded it as just a regular user until Rayquaza popped up on the radar and I looked deeper into it.

Dig through there and see what you can utilized, I'm tied down with my job until Sunday (32 hours a week), but it should give some muscle to the articles.-- Kung Fu Man ( talk) 17:42, 14 October 2009 (UTC)

Unfortunately, we cannot operate like that. They can't give permission like that, or rather, will not. You need a pretty strong fair use rationale for the Pikachu image to validate using it over this free alternative. - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler!

'tis May. Saw you at AFD, nice job finding source(s) for the Pokemon movie article. I miss seeing your sprites, Blake. Aahaha. Have a nice day. talking birds 01:47, 10 November 2009 (UTC)
Nice job cleaning up--thanks. There's more to do, of course! Drmies ( talk) 20:29, 18 November 2009 (UTC)
Thank you! It takes me a bit to do it, but it's always worth it in the end. :) The Flash {talk} 03:44, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
lol, Thank you. I was surprised how quick I finished this one; guess I was just able to find a lot of info easier than others. :) The Flash {talk} 15:55, 28 November 2009 (UTC)
There is more than one which inevitably will start edit wars, which I have seen occurring already. Anothet thing is that links to personal sites is not allowed which is what these clearly are. There is also a ton more ghost rules that apply, and if you really want to go into it, we can. -- HMKJ ( talk) 20:11, 2 January 2010 (UTC)

Well, I view it on the same level as we would reference the use of Navi in Powerpuff Girls; a webcomic is considered an "other media". - The New Age Retro Hippie used Ruler! Now, he can figure out the length of things easily. 18:53, 17 January 2010 (UTC)
I think because they're ugly, distracting, and not part of the English language.— Chowbok ☠ 21:37, 28 January 2010 (UTC)
You, you're a good WikiSamaritan. Thanks for backing me and adding a reference, something I don't know how to do very well yet (despite being a semi-experienced user), and being a fan of semi-protection. Good man. 2J Bäkkvire Maestro RQQ et al favorite haunts 02:42, 30 January 2010 (UTC)
P.S. What's it like being one of the 12 Florida teenagers?
P.P.S. Did you get to here through my userpage? If not, how?
