 Unrelated, but I remember that you once said you're interested in Mystery Dungeon moves. I'm not sure if you're aware, but I noticed that UPC has some decent details for the older games at least (maybe start [http://upcarchive.playker.info/0/upokecenter/content/pokemon-mystery-dungeon-in-depth-guides.html here] and poke a bit), so I thought I'd let you know. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 11:24, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
 :Never mind about sounds, I've figured it out. But have fun with the MD moves! [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 12:46, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
+::I am aware of UPC's listing. However, only Rescue Team is given in detail, and it has few oversights (some moves don't have their effects written and Crunch is mistakenly written to cause flinching when it doesn't.) On top of moves, there are also dungeons (which include items, Pokemon, traps, environment "value" (the floor's appearance which influences the terrain moves), and other hidden values like difficulty, which influences mission's rank. On longer dungeons, all these can change as you get deeper into the dungeon, so there's quite the work.). [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 13:51, 1 December 2016 (UTC)
+== Teleport ==
+I notice you uploaded images of Teleport in [[a:File:Teleport Stad.png|Stadium]] and [[a:File:Teleport Stad2.png|Stadium 2]]. How did you get these? Wouldn't the move always fail? Also, I think the failure message in PBR would be worthwhile trivia (I don't know if Colosseum would have a similar message in-battle). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 06:43, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
+:Stadium games show the animation even if the move has missed or it doesn't work. I am not sure if Colosseum or Battle Revolution have any unused animation for Teleport (which would probably require modifying the game so a different move calls for the animation, if it exists at all). [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 14:20, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
+== Contest combinations ==
+Hey there! First of all, let me thank you for adding all these Contest combinations to move pages — it's a bit of info that I had never thought of adding, but now that you've done it, it's clear to me that it's really valuable. Good idea!
+Anyway, I'm sorry if this causes some more annoying cleanup work, but I have to ask: is there a particular reason you wrote them all as "Contest Spectaculars combination," plural, rather than "Spectacular"? I'm not too familiar with the ORAS Contests, but everywhere I've read about them on the Web uses "Contest Spectacular" when referring to them in the singular, and I think the phrase "Contest Spectacular(s) combination" should be singular in parallel with "Contest combination" (rather than "Contests combination").
+If I'm wrong and "Contest Spectaculars" actually is the singular, my apologies. But I thought I should ask. Thanks, and I await your response! [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 19:57, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
+:I've just realized that Spectacular is the singular and not Spectaculars as I was thinking for some reason. So be free to fix my mistake. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 20:26, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
+::That's what I suspected. I'm about to have to leave for work, but I'll go through and make the corrections in about 8-10 hours if no one else has done it by then. :) [[User:Pumpkinking0192|Pumpkinking0192]] ([[User talk:Pumpkinking0192|talk]]) 20:29, 6 February 2017 (UTC)
+== Figure origins ==
+Make sure that whatever you post isn't speculation. In other words, the names of attacks and Abilities need to match exactly, or else it doesn't get mentioned. Additionally, we try to order the origins in the order that they are presented on the page, meaning that the Ability origin should be before any of the attack origins, and the attack origins should have the attacks in order from when they first appear in the table.

+==Undiscovered egg group==
+Hi, sorry if I ask you, but where did you find the names of the Undiscovered egg group in other languages? I'm an admin of the italian wiki, and I'm searching for the name's evolution in italian; I only know that in the Sun and Moon strategy guide it's called "Sconosciuto" and in Pokémon Stadium 2 "Genere sconosciuto".--[[User:Snorlite|Snorlite]] ([[User talk:Snorlite|talk]]) 12:53, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
+:I am fairly sure it was Stadium 2, though I might have written the names wrong. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 14:40, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
+::Pokédex 3D (Pro) says "Non ancora scoperto", which is different again. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 15:41, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
+:Sorry, I made confusion with Gender unknown. Undiscovered is "Non ancora scoperto" now, only in Stadium 2 it's "Nessun uovo"; Gender unknown is "Genere sconosciuto" in Stadium 2, but another admin of Central Wiki said me that it's recognised in official guides too (at least the Sun and Moon one) while the page says that exists only in Stadium 2. Could it be possible?--[[User:Snorlite|Snorlite]] ([[User talk:Snorlite|talk]]) 16:31, 25 July 2017 (UTC)
+:Update: sorry again, another misunderstanding: it seems that as by now the italian official name for Undiscovered is "Sconosciuto" (after "Nessun uovo" and "Non ancora scoperto"), and for Gender unknown the only source is Stadium 2 and as your page said correctly is "Genere sconosc." or "Genere sconosciuto" in full.--[[User:Snorlite|Snorlite]] ([[User talk:Snorlite|talk]]) 12:23, 26 July 2017 (UTC)
+== Duel stuff ==
+Hey Eridanus~
+Since the newest Hall (Aquamarine) has a rewards system akin to Gym Events, can I leave you in charge of that? We'll need two columns as well -- one for restrictions, and one for rules. What I'm thinking is eventually there will be multiple Match Campaigns that have restrictions, so what I have currently with the Room Matches might need to be modified quite a bit (or scrapped for something else). Also, not sure if you saw my latest message, but the earliest info that is available in the app to obtain secondary types is the Ground Gym Cup (which impacts Water-type figures as well). Lemme know if there's anything else I can be of assistance!

+== Event-Only Moves list ==
+Hi! I'm using your list on MasterBraixen's talk page to fill out my own personal chart, the only thing I can see that's off is "Submission Cyndaquil", it that that was an egg move for it in Crystal and it's seemingly not learned by Level-Up either... Did you mean Double-Edge? If so, it does also learn it as a Gen 3 tutor.
+Extremely good catch with the Low Kick Ponyta and Lapras Future Sight egg moves, because I totally missed those, as well as the Spite Absol, Charm Ralts and Rollout Skitty. A few of the others I didn't list individually on the talk page because I just linked to the event section because there's sooo many, incl. Wish eggs, the "sport" moves and a good chunk of the XD ones. I couldn't find any of the Charm-getters that actually learn it by the new TM (barring Ralts) which is kind of wild.
+If you'd like to see my personal list, it's here: [https://drive.google.com/file/d/1vwHeUSoCpg7-8bsEFok_ORRx2lqHU1h7/view?usp=sharing]
+Thanks for the help -- [[User:Guiltysparkzz|Guiltysparkzz]] ([[User talk:Guiltysparkzz|talk]]) 19:12, 3 June 2020 (UTC)
+:I was thinking of Submission Totodile, typed Cyndaquil instead. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 20:56, 3 June 2020 (UTC)
+::Though that might be it! Thanks again! --[[User:Guiltysparkzz|Guiltysparkzz]] ([[User talk:Guiltysparkzz|talk]]) 21:03, 3 June 2020 (UTC)
+== Transfer moves ==
+Hey there, as pointed out [[User talk:Nescientist/Project Trace#Event data|here]], I think we shouldn't consider Odd Egg Dizzy Punch moves "event"; you can get it with "brand-new copies" (VC) anytime, then transfer. If that makes sense to you as well, I'd appreciate if you changed it back (or am happy to discuss if it doesn't).
+As for moves like Lugia's Psycho Boost: I marked XD purification moves as "event" since you need to have more than just a brand-new copy of RSEFRLG. (Oops, I realize that I didn't change all of them to "event" for some reason, there's ~50 where I didn't. I think I'm gonna change them manually!?)
+Also, thanks for clarifying the footers, and for finding mistakes like Hitmonlee's Tackle (I manually checked all prevo moves to see if they're "event" or "yes", so that's potentially error-prone). If there's another (fundamental) problem, please let me know. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 14:52, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
+:The Odd Egg Dizzy Punch mons are actually not transferable! Poketransfer won't move them unless you remove Dizzy Punch. -- [[User:Guiltysparkzz|Guiltysparkzz]] ([[User talk:Guiltysparkzz|talk]]) 14:58, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
+::On the first reply - fair enough, I wasn't sure what to make of them, since it was inconsistent. Also yes, there are some where it's not changed (like Baton Pass on Farfetch'd before G8). By the way, these transfer-only moves seem to account for previous form-only moves (like the infamous Wish Chansey); in that case, shouldn't crossgen evos account for games where their base forms exist, like Tangrowth having G1-G3? On the second reply, it might be because their method of obtaining was different in Japanese version (and I don't think there's any replacement on Japanese VC version?) [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 15:01, 30 October 2020 (UTC)
+:::Yeah, I made sure all discussion is publicly available and it's not me who does decisions that'll be opposed by a majority.
+:::About Dizzy Punch: great... I spent considerable amount of time for Dizzy Punch only to now realize I should've just deleted it. Yeah, thanks for catching it, will get it fixed/removed.
+:::About prevo moves: initially I thought that species pages across generations (which is what the base data is) capture all moves that Pokémon could've known at any point in time, until I realized that that's not necessarily the case for species that are evolutions of species that existed earlier. Problem is that the template stops at the time of that species' introduction, not the prevo one's (Tangrowth shows IV+, not I+). I think it would need another section (with a "wider" template), but that was just my initial thought. So yeah, if there's a difference between Evolve->Transfer and Transfer->Evolve, that's not included currently.

+== Thank you! ==
+Just wanted to say thanks for uploading the pictures of special PMD floors as well as lots of dungeon-end floors as well. Have a happy Friday! ''[[User:Ben79487|<span style="color:#400000">Ben</span>]][[User talk:Ben79487|<span style="color:#000040">79487</span>]]'' 01:07, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
+:We're still missing some of these from Rescue Team/Explorers, and we haven't started uploading anything from newer games (including the remake). Also can't really upload alternate tilesets for Red/Blue dungeon; in Explorers, they only repeat in Sky-exclusive content (like how Spring Cave reuses tilesets from main story dungeosn) but in Rescue Team it's more comomn; one tileset can be used by multiple dungeons at various parts (for example the Lapis Cave one is also used at one point in Far-off Sea and Wish Cave); the water dungeon are the worst as there's only 3 tilesets they use in total. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 07:54, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
+::Yeah, I imagine that ripping the stuff out of 3D PMD games would be a nightmare, especially because unlike Gen IV they don't have a built-in orthographic camera that you can hack the game to use (I'm pretty sure that's how they got all of the views of the Gen IV places). I don't know very much about Rescue Team, but Explorers has quite a lot of these special floors (and even more in Sky, too...). Just curious: how did you get them? Did you take multiple screenshots and stitch them together, or go into the game files? Thanks anyway. -- ''[[User:Ben79487|<span style="color:#400000">Ben</span>]][[User talk:Ben79487|<span style="color:#000040">79487</span>]]'' 17:31, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
+:::I don't think you even need the orthographic camera, I don't remember Rescue Team or Explorers using any form of pseudo 3D. The maps are from a certain romhacking project that is credited in the file description (at least in some files, will have to recheck everything and add where it's missing). [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 18:37, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
+::::Sorry, my bad. Was talking about Gates and onwards that would have problems. Yeah, everything checks out. Thanks for adding, again! -- ''[[User:Ben79487|<span style="color:#400000">Ben</span>]][[User talk:Ben79487|<span style="color:#000040">79487</span>]]'' 19:18, 4 December 2020 (UTC)
+== Slumber Trap PSMD Redirect Issue ==
+Hello, apologies for intruding. You seem to have been redirecting the PSMD trap images to have spaces between their different components. However, you made an error in redirecting the Slumber Trap image and then double-redirected it to the one you wanted. This has caused an issue, because now the original (SlumberTrapSMD.png) is broken on every page it was on, rather than actually redirecting. I am not able to fix it, so as the one who broke it, I wish to ask you to fix the redirect from File:SlumberTrapSMD.png to File:Slumber Trap SMD.png. Thank you. - [[User:MiraiMeowstic|MiraiMeowstic]] ([[User talk:MiraiMeowstic|talk]]) 07:39, 22 January 2021 (UTC)
+== Anime series sections ==
+Hey, I created a proposal of adding series sections in the articles for Pokémon species. For instance, adding "Pokémon the Series: Diamond and Pearl", "Pokémon the Series: Black & White", etc. sections in {{p|Pikachu}}.
+This is being discussed here: [[Bulbapedia talk:Editor's Hub#Pokémon pages with anime series sections]]. --[[User:Daniel Carrero|Daniel Carrero]] ([[User talk:Daniel Carrero|talk]]) 13:34, 9 March 2021 (UTC)
+== Formula conversions ==
+I noticed you've done a lot formula conversions, some of either lost or will soon lose the ability to be compared to the previous version(s). Just wanted to make you aware that arithmetics work a little differently when constrained by hardware. For example, the fourth root isn't necessarily the square root of the square root, and multiplication isn't ''quite'' commutative (such as due to operating on integers, or potential overflows). Whenever I edited formulae in the past, I very deliberately used the proper division sign when I did, rather than a fraction. I'd appreciate if you could (retroactively) make sure that you didn't unintentionally alter any formulae. Thanks.
+And when I'm already here, I think I can also explain my OHKO edits. You can either think of move accuracies as "Tackle has 100% accuracy" (A) or "Tackle has 100 accuracy" (B); note that the percantage sign isn't actually being used in-game. That means that, if whatever the accuracy calculation yields is somewhere between 1 and 100, you can add a percantage sign (A) or omit it (B). However, in math a percentage sign reads as "over 100", so if the calculation is in the hundreths already, you need to "artificially" multiply by 100 (either way) to get accuracies in the expected range. (I remember seeing Tiddlywinks explain this way better somewhere a long time ago.) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 17:46, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
+:Fair enough, if you want to fix the formulas back you can do that. Though the % versus 100% is... the pages being inconsistent, because Sheer Cold didn't multiply it by 100%. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 18:11, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
+::Ok then, as for where images haven't already been deleted, I can try.
+::As for Sheer Cold, plug in some levels and you end up at around 50, as should be (same for the other moves' current formulas). Plug in some levels for the GenII thing (without multiplying by 100, that is) and you'll end up 0.50. You should multiply by 100, it's correct. (I mean, you can go ahead and suggest or change something for the better.. but it was correct before your edit, and not after, that's what I'm saying.) [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 18:56, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
+:::Checked the rest of your edits, they should be as correct, or you improved them. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 19:22, 23 April 2021 (UTC)
+== Treecko's Double Kick ==
+Woops, I forgot females cannot pass down moves by breeding to other species outside their evolutionary families. --'''''[[User:Bfdifan2006|<font color="turquoise">Bfdifan2006</font>]]'''''<sub>[[User talk:Bfdifan2006|<font color="lime">something to say?</font>]] · [[Special:Contributions/Bfdifan2006|<font color="orange">My work documentation</font>]]</sub> 11:31, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
+:Well at least Treecko gets the move in the end. I believe {{p|Murkrow}} has an unused Egg Move in USUM, because the only compatible species that learns the move is {{p|Vullaby}}, which is female-only. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 11:34, 20 August 2021 (UTC)
+== Link templates ==
+It's good that you're adding additional info on the FireRed and LeafGreen rematches, but please be aware that you can use link templates to make the links easier to write and not be redirect. For example, {{template|pkmn}} and {{template|i}} could useful. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:29, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
+:Oh right, these exist. [[User:Eridanus|Eridanus]] ([[User talk:Eridanus|talk]]) 12:34, 8 January 2022 (UTC)
+== Events ==
+Just wanted to say, the reason the ranger Manaphy Egg counts as an event is because Ranger Net itself is a pseudo-mystery gift function used in the ranger series. Also the Pokémon ranger game card itself is physically limited to 1 Manaphy Egg per Pokémon ranger game cart, to get more than that you physically need a second copy of the game or you have to physically modify the internal game files with illegal 3rd party tools. Lugia/Ho-oh on gamecube are Pokémon that you catch during the story of their respective games and you can just farm more of by starting a new save file, they are no different from any other in-game legendary.

+Does Wally really have 2 Super Potions in Mauville City in Pokemon Emerald? I tested this, and for no reason did he use Super Potions, or is there any special way he uses them?. [[User:NeoCrimson|NeoCrimson]] ([[User talk:NeoCrimson|talk]]) 17:05, 13 March 2022 (UTC)

+Hello, I was trying to edit a page, [[Moves not in the Pokémon games/In the TCG/Sword & Shield Series]], and in my edit I was trying to remove moves that were already in previous expansions, as is the norm with all the other pages of other TCG Series, but the page blocked my edit with something called "Vandal Filter 2." The notification told me to tell an active administrator of what I'm trying to do with the page. I'm not trying to vandalize the page, and I've already made several contibutions to it. I tried reaching out to another administrator, but I only realized later that the user hasn't been on for a while. Do you know how to allow my edit to go through? Thanks.

+I've noticed you adding onto the breeding tables for Gen IX, thanks, and thanks to everyone else also helping out in that area (it's quite time consuming), I made a section [[Talk:Egg Move#Gen IX Egg Moves|here]] a while ago regarding parents passing on moves in Scarlet and Violet.

+Hi Eridanus,
+You edited the pages for [[Ingo]] and [[Emmet]] a while ago to add Nature and EV info to their teams. In doing so, you changed their team for the 21st consecutive battle on the Multi Train to use Crustle instead of Garbodor, which {{u|Storm Aurora}} found as an error. I'm guessing you meant to copy/paste the info for Ingo's Garbodor instead of his Crustle from his Single Train battle? Can you confirm if that's correct?
