::::Well, we probably shouldn't really begin doing clearout work until we have all of the lectures (at least from the first three generations, as [[Generation IV]] is still ongoing).

:I just found the trivia part in [[EP061]]: "This is the first episode in the Japanese version to feature Oak's Pokémon Lecture, which would last until mid-Advanced Generation series then start again in the early Diamond and Pearl series."
:Shouldn't we delete the part of EP001 to EP060??? Also I find the old pokemon video in a video site,I will add the content as I have time:)--[[User:chungkingpun|chungkingpun]] 9:20, 16 December 2008 (UTC)

== DP Name Change ==
It seems in the DP series, there were two names for the lecture. I don't have all the episodes in Japanese, but from what I've seen, earlier episodes have "Doctor Orchid's Big Pokémon Encyclopedia" (オーキド博士のポケモン大百科), and later episodes have "Doctor Orchid's Big Pokémon Test" (オーキド博士のポケモン大検定). The "Test" ones have Oak ask a question at the end. Does anyone know when they changed, or if they just alternate? --[[User:Jda95|<span style="color:#000000">'''jda'''</span>]][[User talk:Jda95|<span style="color:#D71010">'''95'''</span>]] 08:55, 13 February 2011 (UTC)

:It changed at DP098. And just like with the original Kanto lectures, the first Pokémon tested is Magikarp (lol). [[User:Bluesun|Bluesun]] 12:02, 23 April 2011 (UTC)

In the translations, shouldn't the Enlgish name for the Pokemon be used, since it's meant for people who don't know Japanese? An yes, I know you just have to hover to see the English name, and it says the Pokemons name off to the side, but the Japenese name just seems out of place with the rest of the English.--[[User:Chris Broach|Chris Broach]] ([[User talk:Chris Broach|talk]]) 01:50, 12 November 2012 (UTC)

Would not it be more appropriate to ask this here, but to see some things about the Oak's lecture, this is more to see if that is true or not.

It might be a good idea to split this article into various others while keeping this as the parent article because this list is just going to get longer and the longer it gets, the longer it takes to load. Readers might also be able to comprehend it better if there are separate articles.

::: I believe one single list for them all is enough, just like how it was done for the Who's That Pokémon segments, which weren't separated from Pocket Monster TV. We just need a better ordering in the article itself rather than splitting it. --[[User:Gabo 2oo|Gabo 2oo]] ([[User talk:Gabo 2oo|talk]]) 21:16, 23 April 2014 (UTC)

This has to be the ugliest article I've seen on the wiki. Three notice templates of incongruent sizes on top, a mess of fonts in the first paragraph, excessive article length, and a ton of wasted space in the episode templates. Instead of something sensible like…
{| border="1" style="border-collapse: collapse"
| [[AG105]]-<br>[[AG124]]
| No lecture
| No Pokémon senryū
|}
…we have 20 lines repeating the same info: "no lecture, no Pokémon senryū." Same with [[DP075]]-[[DP084]]. The Big Pokémon Examination, BW series, and XY series templates are extremely wide and could really use some parameters. If the article will not be split, then at least make it look cohesive. —<font face="Segoe UI"><span style="text-shadow:grey 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em">[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="#fff">The</font>]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="red">Best</font>]]</span></font> 07:40, 23 May 2014 (UTC)
