== The poor quality of the screenshots ==
== The poor quality of the screenshots ==


I don't know if anybody besides me has noticed this at all, but in pretty much every single screenshot that I see, there are these ugly black blocks everywhere... and when I play any Gen IV game on my DS, none of this ugly black junk is there. For example, the in the {{m|Sunny Day}} article, the sun's rays are outlined with black squares everywhere. For another example, in the {{m|Fire Blast}} article, the flame has an outline of black blocks around it. I don't see any black on my DS. The list goes on: there is no shortage of screenshots with black blocks everywhere. It seems that whenever there's supposed to be translucency, it's replaced with black instead, for some reason. It seems that people use some emulator (which, by the way, I personally frown upon using emulators for a current gen system, because that hurts Nintendo) with poor emulation quality. Is it possible that there's a different emulator without this very noticeable flaw, or maybe use a photograph of a real DS? (Although, the latter may be problematic too, but at least it doesn't have the glaring black crap all over every screenshot.) --[[User:Blaziken257|<span style="color:#F08030;">'''Blaz'''</span>]][[User talk:Blaziken257|<span style="color:#C03028;">'''iken'''</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Blaziken257|<span style="color:#302000;">'''257'''</span>]] 17:03, 28 February 2010 (UTC)
