I think the name "Officer" is out of place, as it refers to the [[Officer|Trainer Class]]. Those are simply "gate guards". And also, I think it should be moved to "Gatehouse". The name "lookout station" is neither official nor popular in fandom. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] 16:23, 3 July 2009 (UTC) | I think the name "Officer" is out of place, as it refers to the [[Officer|Trainer Class]].

:Actually, I believe this should be moved to {{red link|Gate}}, as from what I'm able to tell, that's the official term for these places, as [[Generation V]] has apparently introduced to us. Not only do some people within them call them gates, but if one were to bring up the save screen in one (or hatch an egg inside one and bring up the Pokémon's status), the area name will show up as "<something> Gate" (as opposed to one of the connecting areas as was the case in previous generations); examples include "Bridge Gate" for ones surrounding the [[Skyarrow Bridge|br]][[Tubeline Bridge|id]][[Village Bridge|g]][[Marvelous Bridge|es]], "Opelucid Gate" for ones surrounding [[Opelucid City]] (similar naming applies for those around other cities/towns and, based on "Black Gate" near [[Black City]], I suspect "White Gate" for [[White Forest]] as well), and even "Route Gate" for the one between Routes {{rtn|1|Unova}} and {{rtn|17|Unova}}. (These are only examples; this is not the complete list of Unova gate names.) These location names apparently solidifies the case for "Gate" being the official term. | |||
:Besides, as far as I can tell, "lookout station" wasn't even a popular fanon term; "guardhouse" and "gatehouse" were far more popular fanon terms. ****, only select few gates in [[Kanto]] (and even then only in Generations {{gen|I}} and {{gen|III}}) and no gates in any other [[country]] besides Kanto even had equipment that would qualify for the term "lookout station". --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 04:34, 20 April 2011 (UTC) | |||

The place where it says "edit" for the Practical Use section is located halfway down the paragraph. I do not know why this is, or how this is, or how to fix it. I have refreshed the page several times, so I don't think it just loaded funny. Someone needs to look into it. Perhaps it has something to do with the pictures?--[[User:Lamb|<span style="color:green">Lamb</span>]]<small>''([[User talk:Lamb|<span style="color:brown">talk</span>]])''</small> 07:11, 27 February 2010 (UTC) | The place where it says "edit" for the Practical Use section is located halfway down the paragraph.
