A group of friends and I have been doing intense work on a tabletop pokemon game. It is going to be a complete game with a bestiary (pokedex), class options and paragon paths (trainer classes/advanced classes), a completely translated Move list, Ability list and well it's taking a very long time to do this project. About 9 months so far and we aren't stopping till we're done. Here's the thing that tangentially relates to you and your position at bulbapedia. The bestiary contains 493 entries. It's probably the hardest part of this entire endeavor. The entires include Move lists, evolution methods, pics, habitats, capabilities and biology. We NEED to do biology entries for each pokemon, but we'd rather not. I am humbly and bluntly asking you for permission to plagiarize bulbapedia's biology entries. It won't be word-for-word since that'd make the book to large, but it'd basically be the same sentences simplified. For more information, see [http://1d4chan.org/wiki/Pokemon_Tabletop_Adventures]. It will eventually be released as a bunch of free pdfs all over the internet and if we are allowed to use bulbapedia's entries here and there, you'll be sure we'll include our thanks and bulbapedia itself as a major contributor and source. {{u|DrMrStark}} 2 PM, SEP 21 2009

== Some advice here... ==
I think I've spotted a potential problem user here.  {{u|Crystal Master}} is making edits to mainspace articles in an attempt to make it look like {{ga|Leaf}} never existed, claiming that {{ga|Red}}'s story is the "only canon story" in FireRed/LeafGreen, based solely to what's present in HeartGold/SoulSilver.  Every attempt I've made to try to convince Crystal Master into leaving references to Leaf have failed.  I've already had to protect [[History of the Pokémon world|two]] [[Silver (game)|articles]] due to Crystal Master's insistence of Leaf never existing, but I fear Crystal Master could turn into a real problem if he continues to make edits involving erasing all traces of Leaf's existence.  What should I do should this turn into a problem?  --[[User:Shiningpikablu252|Shiningpikablu252]] 02:41, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
