Hello there I'm back! xD, well, first of all I wanted to tell you what I could do last time we talked, about that mails that never got to you! Anyway, I only wanted to ask you about how to import japanese pokemon games. You said you're going to have SoulSilver as soon as it is out in Japan! I want one too!

I was on vacacion on California last month, so I wanted you to tell me before or while I was there, so I could do whatever I needed to do probably there, since I live in Mexico City and maybe I won't be able to ask for my game here, but you didn't tell me, because you didn't know I asked you!

Is there a way to remove the Bulba logo from the top of the page, and change it to something else. You can in Uncyclopedia, and I was wondering if you could on this wiki to. Also, theres a glitch in the Sig expand process. '''<nowiki> <span class="sigexpand"> </nowiki>'''. It wouldnt work like it suppose to. If I type in  

:First answer, that'd be in your CSS. You can change that at [[User:ShinyPikachu/monobook.css]] if you want. Second answer, that's because we don't ''have'' a span class of "sigexpand" defined. If you get the definition for it for me I can see about getting it put into the definitions of the classes, but currently, no.

Do you think that an article should contain rōmaji after the katakana? For example, in the article for GS, instead of being '''Pokémon Gold Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター {{tt|金|きん}}''' ''Pocket Monsters Gold''), why not '''Pokémon Gold Version''' (Japanese: '''ポケットモンスター {{tt|金|きん}}''' ''Poketto Monsutā Kin'', "Pocket Monsters Gold")?

Sorry to bother you again TTE, but I was wondering if you cared which leader sprite is used for the leader templates. I was thinking a non-moving one for the gym templates and a moving one for the fighting dojo templates. I already asked Trom and he said he does not care which, and said the moving one slows down computers. As in Brock's case the moving sprite looks really horrible, so that is one reason among many why I would not use the moving ones. Do you have a preference to which? –'''[[User talk:MasterKenobi|<span style="color:#000">Master</span>]][[User:MasterKenobi|<span style="color:#0000CC">Kenobi</span>]]''' 23:02, 15 September 2009 (UTC)

Hey, I found the real sprites for Latias in HG/SS and Platinum, I don't know how to add it so I wanted to ask you. I'll give you the pictures to show you. I found the sprite sheet on a site with both frame 1 and 2 of every pokemon in HG/SS, and since Latias' sprite on Latias' page is the D/P one I think they should be changed. Anyway here's the picture of both the frames: http://i347.photobucket.com/albums/p466/Pokemonlegend222/0380Front_f_normal.png and here's the picture of the same sprites but shiny Latias instead: http://i347.photobucket.com/albums/p466/Pokemonlegend222/0380Front_f_shiny.png

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

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.  To protect from continued edit wars, 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)
