:Someone add that the French name Picassaut, in addition to being derived from "pic" and "assaut" is a pun on "Picasso." [[User:Catonatrain|Catonatrain]] ([[User talk:Catonatrain|talk]]) 02:34, 19 August 2016 (UTC)

could its name also be a corruption of tiki? afterall, this is a hawaii based region and tikis are often made of wood. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 04:03, 15 June 2016 (UTC)

:''Piki'' could well come from ''pick'', since it is said to take small objects and tuck them into its nest. [[User: Ariano|Արիանո]] 07:59, 20 June 2016 (UTC)

== Number Source? ==
Where did we find Pikipek's National Dex number? I know we had the starters but I didn't see Pikipek's anywhere. Could someone link the source for that? {{unsigned|Mettie7}}
:We know Rowlet is National Dex #722 from Pokemon Bank screenshots, and we know (from E3 footage, iirc?) that in the Alola regional dex Rowlet, the other two starters, and Pikipek are #001, #004, #007 and #010 respectively. I personally think the staff are making an assumption when they convert regional #010 to National #731, since for all we know the regional and National dexes might not be in the same order. But such a thing has never happened before, so it's an understandable assumption to make and I'm not going to make a big deal about arguing against it.

::I thought the Bulbapedia staff was against assumptions, weird. I'm not going to make a big deal out of it either I was just curious as to where they got it from. [[User:Mettie7|Mettie7]] ([[User talk:Mettie7|talk]]) 20:26, 23 September 2016 (UTC)
:::As the National Pokédex numbers for Rowlet (#1), Litten (#4) and Popplio (#7) were confirmed to be numbered #722, #725, and #728 respectively, I think the fact that it's #10 in the Alola Dex more or less confirms the National Dex number of #731 for Pikipek. They've done this for Hoenn, Sinnoh, Unova and Kalos, so they will do the same for Alola too. [[User:Kangaflora|Kangaflora]] ([[User talk:Kangaflora|talk]]) 19:01, 13 October 2016 (UTC)
::::We're playing it safe. If Pikipek's #731, then great, but for all we know it's currently unknown. --[[User:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#95EB5C">Carmen<small>★</small></span>]] <small>''[[User talk:Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#FEBEE8">(Talk |</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Carmenstar97|<span style="color:#A6DAFC">contribs)</span>]]''</small> 19:14, 13 October 2016 (UTC)
:::::Except it has been confirmed through it's Alola dex number. Come on guys. [[User:Theexploringgamer|Theexploringgamer]] ([[User talk:Theexploringgamer|talk]]) 13:18, 16 October 2016 (UTC)
::::::There could be four separate dex's, the mons could be jumbled up differently from the regional and the national. We don't know until the games are released. "The regional order correspond to the national order", yeah, and I thought we'd have gym leaders in this game and look what happened.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#AB2813">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#C87365">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#26649C">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#729ABF">ire</span>]] 13:33, 16 October 2016 (UTC)
== Models ==
I understand we aren't supposed to add things datamined from the Special Demo Version, but what about things that are present in the game? My point is, we have access to Pikipek, Yungoos, Jangmo-o, and Hakamo-o all in the game legally and not-datamined. So, can we not take those models and put them on their respective pages?
[[User:Blootannery|Blootannery]] ([[User talk:Blootannery|talk]]) 01:39, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
:Models are not easy, and Bulbapedia's resources are relatively limited. We do what we can, and for the time being, models are a ways down on the priority/capability list. (Ask yourself if '''you''' can get models. Whatever you can think of is probably ''more or less'' what we can do. And remember that we have to have permission for resources produced by others.)

::Okay, that makes sense. But, it makes me wonder. Who was in charge of mining all of the models for gen 6? o.o [[User:Blootannery|Blootannery]] ([[User talk:Blootannery|talk]]) 15:12, 31 October 2016 (UTC)
:::I don't personally know exactly. You may [[a:File:Spr 6x 002.png|take note]], however, that we didn't get most of our models until almost a year after X/Y came out. (Of course, that was also the first 3DS generation, so it could be quicker this time. But only time will tell.)
