Can I comment on this issue? It's highly possible that in Japan, saying that Golbat is purple is seen as correct. Studies show that cultures can have remarkably different perceptions of color -- in fact, the Japanese really had to invent new words to describe colors like 'green' and 'pink', which had previously been clumped with blues and reds, respectively. Golbat could be interpreted as "Indigo" rather than a straight out purple or blue. Plus, we are going on the game data here. If we start allowing people to just put fanon opinions into articles it'd just be a random mess. [[User:Manga-in-a-bottle|Manga-in-a-bottle]]

:Yeah, I've heard of that, that green lights over there are actually a lot more blue than they are here. Heck, even our own, English-speaking culture didn't have a name for orange until the fruit was found; we just called it yellored. And I'm not kidding around here. Heck, indigo's only mentioned in ROYGBIV because Newton wanted everything to be perfect 7's.

While you are stuck in your little cool-down period, I'd like you to think about why I blocked you.  It was not because we are trying to beat all potential editors into submission.  However, given your attitude, refusal to discuss the issue with other editors, and general obstruction of work, I saw it necessary to flex my powers and show you that no, we aren't going to put up with you if you're only here to give us headaches. --[[User:Pie|Pie]] <sup>~[[User talk:Pie|♪]][[Special:Contributions/Pie|♫]]</sup> 06:46, 5 August 2007 (UTC)
