== A Question ==
Just wondering, What is plural For Farfetch'd? [[User:Mesuxelf|Mesuxelf]] 16:56, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
:Farfetch'd----'''''無限の知性''''' ◎ [[User:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#BF0B17">DENNOU</font>]]'''[[Special:Random|◆]]'''[[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#1250A6">ZENSHI</font>]] 16:59, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
::Ok thank you![[User:Mesuxelf|Mesuxelf]] 16:59, 2 February 2011 (UTC)
:::The plural for any pokémon name is the same word, like with "fish" and "sheep". [[User:EnosShayrem|EnosShayrem]] 06:21, 26 February 2011 (UTC)
== Repeated statement ==
I notice that in the Trivia section, it states TWICE that Farfetch'd is the only Pokémon with an apostrophe in its name. Should the last one be taken out? (Note: I ask this specifically because we are not supposed to add trivia. Does erasing it count as well?) [[User:EvilKirikizan|EvilKirikizan]] 13:25, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
:Actually, removing pointless/unnotable/stupid/repetitive trivia is '''always''' encouraged. That Trivia rule applies only to '''adding''' new trivia.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#AB0909">電</font><font color="#063A73">禅</font>]]<small>[[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#fff" face="Tahoma"><span style="text-shadow:#000 0.2em 0.1em 0.1em; class=texhtml">Den Zen</span></font>]]</small>''' 13:51, 6 June 2011 (UTC)
== Item held in LF/FR ==
The trade with the spearow gives you a Farfetch'd with a Stick, but this is not mentioned. Could somebody change this? [[User:Nicky7|Nicky7]] 10:49, 29 June 2011 (UTC)
== Picture ==
Can someone tell me why the picture is from Red and Green, not FireRed and LeafGreen, the photo that has been uploaded on the Bulbagarden Archives, and is here as well? --[[User:YoshisWorld|<span style="color:#66FF00">'''☆Yoshis'''</span>]][[User talk:YoshisWorld|<span style="color:#FF0000">'''World☆'''</span>]] 00:29, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
:It's to celebrate the birthday of Red and Green, I believe.  It happens every year. ^-^ [[User:Littlmiget123|Littlmiget123]] 00:37, 1 September 2011 (UTC)
== Widespread misconception ==
I noticed that this article doesn't address a common misconception surrounding this Pokémon during the times of generation I.  I distinctly remember that this Pokémon was believed to belong to Doduo's evolution family, and some related media in Europe reinforced this misconception (e.g. a sticker album placed Farfetch'd > Doduo > Dodrio in the same rectangle, implying a three-stage evolution family.  In the United States, Tomy figures representing the three characters were packaged together somewhat implying the same thing (though some three-figure sets did not group an evolution family (e.g. Tauros, Porygon & Kangaskhan and Oddish, Ninetales & ?Pidgeotto?).  Should this error be included as part of the trivia section?  Considering that both Farfetch'd and Doduo (and to a lesser extent Dodrio) were easily obtainable in the wild, there was little need to (try to) evolve Farfetch'd to obtain its evolution, so the mistake wasn't immediately cleared up.

:If you could find a picture of the sticker album showing the error it'd be worth mentioning (granted that there isn't already a page for the sticker album). Without proof of the error though, no, a few fans thinking something's true that isn't, isn't notable. [[User:Glik|Glik]] ([[User talk:Glik|talk]]) 17:50, 19 January 2014 (UTC)
::I thought this was interesting, so I did a little hunt.  The only image I could find was [http://ic.pics.livejournal.com/raikourai/30331428/137405/137405_320.jpg this image] with a Google Image search for "Farfetch'd Doduo Dodrio sticker".  The [http://pkmncollectors.livejournal.com/10609767.html website that has the picture] also has an image of the album.  A Google Image search for "Farfetch'd evolves into Doduo" leads to [http://i102.photobucket.com/albums/m118/R-New_1993/BILD0417.jpg a different image on a separate mistake].  (However, [http://www.serebiiforums.com/showthread.php?473542-Why-Can-t-People-Get-It-Right-Annoying-Things-and-Pokémon&s=0186f3219fb9af8936f0cbd955a54671&p=11771309#post11771309 that links to the Serebii forums.])  Anyways, I hope this helps somehow.  --[[User:Super goku|Super goku]] ([[User talk:Super goku|talk]]) 06:22, 20 January 2014 (UTC)
