::Surely an actual game is of more significance than a strategy guide, even an official one? Even if they are the same, the Pokédex names are the most recent. [[User:Blazios|Blazios]] 09:23, 7 June 2011 (UTC)

:::I was pointing out the fact that these names are not new (apart from No Eggs being Undiscovered). It means that these names have almost certainly been retconned, and have been for some time. I'm leaning more towards using the new names over the old names. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 09:27, 7 June 2011 (UTC)

::::I was just about to bring this up myself. The old source, Pokemon Stadium 2, is now over ten years old, and a lot about the game has changed since then. It's possible Nintendo was using these names even as early as Ruby and Sapphire and we just never knew. We now have an official source for the egg group names... the only question, I think, would probably be whether to start renaming now, or to wait until the application updates to show at least one Pokemon from each egg group so we have the official names of all of them at once. -- [[User:Saethori|Saethori]] 06:49, 8 June 2011 (UTC)
