== "Fall 2015" ==
I happened to see [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=List_of_side_story_episodes&curid=97217&diff=2277776&oldid=2264148 this edit] in the history and took a look, experimenting in preview mode.  When I tried "March 2015", it changed the date in the end column to say it was 62 days since the Japanese airing, which shows that the table problem comes from that column.  It also means using a month and year calculates in the final column based on the first day of the month.  "Fall", however, isn't a calendar month.  This is why the last column indicated an unexpected parameter.  The only way to solve that problem is to have each seasonal period be treated as a calculable value in the calculations (fall for instance could be September 21).  Since I can't edit the template to add something like that - and don't know if it's even possible, anyway! - we can't use do that.
How that enlarged the image?  I have an idea.  I tested by modifying the line for SS32 to say Fall 2015.  The image in that row expanded the same way.  I suspect that what happens is any row formatting is disregarded if the row can't be properly completed, and any formatting that might shrink the image thus gets thrown out because the table row is not properly completed.  I've forgotten a table ending tag before and ended up having nested tables; that was a bit of a mess...
I would suggest that with the final column acting that way that it would be best to put nothing but an actual date in the previous column.  Not because of the image problems, but rather to prevent breaking the table.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 06:19, 2 May 2015 (UTC)
:I agree. It appears to be an oversight within the template itself. Even if I could edit it, I don't know how any edits would affect any working uses of the template. It's best to air on the side of caution in this case. - [[User:Chosen|<span style="color:#F85888">Chosen</span>]] <span style="color:#6890F0">of</span> [[User talk:Chosen|<span style="color:#F8D030">Mana</span>]] 14:41, 2 May 2015 (UTC)

Beauty, was just about to look at that and you [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=List_of_Pok%C3%A9mon_by_Pok%C3%A9mon_Shuffle_list_number&curid=202782&diff=2295617&oldid=2293059 beat me to it].  Should we expand the column slightly, however, or is it fine like that?  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 03:29, 14 June 2015 (UTC)

== Am I Guessing,... ==
...you don't have the ability on this side to edit templates?  I asked Glik if he could edit [[Template:Spritebox/3]] as the GIF images for Emerald all now have replacements at Archives, but he said he prefers Archive staff handle them.  So I'm poking you. =)  But being Archives staff, I realize, does not mean template editing abilities where images are involved, so might you be able to co-ordinate activities with him or another staffer for all of the new images in place for Emerald?  See the upload log at Archives; I helped tag for deletion the GIFs from around 213 to the end.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 04:18, 17 July 2015 (UTC)
== Hoopa anime article ==
I wrote on the talk page of your [[User:Chosen/Sandbox/Hoopa (anime)|Hoopa article]] incase you missed it. Thanks for taking care of the images relating to Scottie/Sawyer's Treecko and Grovyle by the way.

== Changes to Templates ==
When working on a significant potential change to a template, it's highly advised that you create the updated template on a subpage in your userspace and thoroughly test the changes. If your changes cause the code to break, or act unexpectedly, you won't accidentally cause problems on articles where the template is already in use. Thanks, - [[User:Kogoro|'''<span class="sc" style="color:#DA70D6;">Kogoro</span>''']] '''-''' [[User talk:Kogoro|'''<span class="sc" style="color:#FFB6C1;">Talk to me</span>''']] - 22:00, 9 January 2016 (UTC)
== New Template ==
Hi, how are you? :)
I've been working on this new template since yesterday, and I've finnally come with something that pleases me. How can I create it in order to start using it?

Thanks [[User:MannedTooth|MannedTooth]] ([[User talk:MannedTooth|talk]]) 22:44, 20 January 2016 (UTC)
:Hello, MannedTooth! The best thing I would suggest is to copy that template to a subpage under your User: name. (e.g. "User:MannedTooth/Template:NameGoesHere") Once you've done that, add <nowiki><noinclude>{{Template:Mainspace|Template|status=complete}}</noinclude></nowiki> to the top of the page and create it. After that, Staff members will evaluate the template and determine if it can be moved to wiki proper. - [[User:Chosen|<span style="color:#F85888">Chosen</span>]] <span style="color:#6890F0">of</span> [[User talk:Chosen|<span style="color:#F8D030">Mana</span>]] 22:52, 20 January 2016 (UTC)

== Archives ==
Are Bulbagarden Archives work only on Bulbagarden wikis? Is it possible to use them on other wiki?&mdash; [[User:Bouncepaw|Bouncepaw]] said that 16:40, 15 March 2016 (UTC)
:The files in the Archives are solely for the use of our wiki services. You ARE allowed to use them, but you must host them on a separate hosting site. - [[User:Chosen|<span style="color:#EE99AC">Chosen</span>]] <span style="color:#6890F0">of</span> [[User talk:Chosen|<span style="color:#F8D030">Mana</span>]] 16:52, 15 March 2016 (UTC)

== Dragonite Incinerate ==
I uploaded a picture of Dragonite using Incinerate on the archives, so that it may be used on Incinerate's page on Bulbapedia. But when I go to Incinerate's page, it displays no image and asks for an upload. Even so, if I try to preview the page, the picture is displayed. I tried to solve the problem but failed. So I would request you to see into the problem and solve it if you can. Thanks in advance! [[User:Harryghost|Harryghost]] ([[User talk:Harryghost|talk]]) 12:28, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
:Never mind! Apparently, the picture is now being displayed properly on the move's page without a problem. [[User:Harryghost|Harryghost]] ([[User talk:Harryghost|talk]]) 17:34, 31 March 2016 (UTC)
== Regarding changes in [[XY122]] ==
Hey Chosen, you are not new here.
Don't you know that whenever you edit you need to write the reason in  summary box. Well, I am new here and starting to get sick of other users. My first article was totally  removed saying poorly written and incomplete plot.I accept poorly written as a good reason but incomplete, why there are many articles having incomplete plot. Besides it could have been improved instead.I let it go. Afterwards I  tried wrote complete plot of XY 122. But others keep on correcting according to their own views.When Ash was little confused somebody corrected he was determined. Now you changed it back to how it was. I wrote Pikachu's lower body became frozen it was corrected to be additional effect of move now you say it became numb, although I agree with you on this point, I was not able to find a proper word when I wrote. I appreciate your editing and making article more perfect, but you edited it too much and that's what I am mad about. Anyway I let it go but tell me to edit on my talk gotta fly instead of editing almost  half of the article. And remember to write reasons for your edits always.
[[User:Pokemon master sachin|Pokemon master sachin]] ([[User talk:Pokemon master sachin|talk]]) 16:58, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
:First, I apologize if my intentions were unclear. While your edits to XY122 were appreciated, I felt the summary could have been expanded, proofread, and reworded to make it flow better. As for the editing itself, please bear in mind that, like any wiki, any and all edits may be edited, altered, or removed by other contributors. In that regard, Bulbapedia is no different. - [[User:Chosen|<span style="color:#EE99AC">Chosen</span>]] <span style="color:#6890F0">of</span> [[User talk:Chosen|<span style="color:#F8D030">Mana</span>]] 17:11, 6 June 2016 (UTC)
== Digital-exclusive singles ==
Hi, I noticed that the recent one-off ending themes have been made available exclusively for digital download:
*[[DreamDream]] on the [https://itunes.apple.com/jp/album/doridori-animesaizuver.-single/id1091947977 iTunes store]
*[[Brilliantly]] on [https://www.amazon.co.jp/%E3%82%AD%E3%83%A9%E3%82%AD%E3%83%A9%EF%BD%9E%E3%82%A2%E3%83%8B%E3%83%A1%E3%82%B5%E3%82%A4%E3%82%BAver-%EF%BD%9E/dp/B01GO0UEPA Amazon], can't find it on the iTunes store yet
Do these singles meet the threshold of notability for inclusion? [[User:Chenzw|Chenzw]] ([[User talk:Chenzw|talk]]) 17:35, 16 June 2016 (UTC)
:It would be difficult to make dedicated pages just for these singles, especially because there will be a additional volume to [[Pocket Monsters XY&Z TV Anime Character Song Project Collection Volume 1]]. Waiting for that second volume seems more viable. - [[User:Chosen|<span style="color:#EE99AC">Chosen</span>]] <span style="color:#6890F0">of</span> [[User talk:Chosen|<span style="color:#F8D030">Mana</span>]] 23:03, 16 June 2016 (UTC)

::::Can you unlock the file name so I could add it myself then? I can't upload it to imgur as the website changes the file to .jpg on its own (I uploaded it as a .png) Unless you can change the file yourself (using MS Paint or Photoshop). I just figure that this picture would be better than the current one as this one shows Talonflame's talons and a bigger widespread of the actual body.--[[User:ShallowShaddoll|ShallowShaddoll]] ([[User talk:ShallowShaddoll|talk]]) 15:42, 13 August 2016 (UTC)
:::::After reviewing the frame with other staff members, we decided that the picture would not be worth the upload because of the lighting. In addition, the new picture, while showing Talonflame's talons, cuts off its wings. If we were to upload a new version of File:Ash Talonflame.png, we would prefer a complete, full-body shot. - [[User:Chosen|<span style="color:#EE99AC">Chosen</span>]] <span style="color:#6890F0">of</span> [[User talk:Chosen|<span style="color:#F8D030">Mana</span>]] 16:01, 13 August 2016 (UTC)

== Alola Form question ==
I see that on all the Alola Form species pages, you just added the line "''In Alola, (X) '''have''' a regional variant...''"
