Since Piplup is confirmed male as of [[DP137]], this either means Piplup goes both ways or we just confirmed Pikachu's gender. - '''[[User: | Since Piplup is confirmed male as of [[DP137]], this either means Piplup goes both ways or we just confirmed Pikachu's gender. - '''[[User:Coffee|<span style="color:#{{cute color}}">Chosen</span>]] <span style="color:#6890F0">of</span> [[User talk:Coffee|<span style="color:#F8D030">Mana</span>]]'''- 03:23, 6 September 2009 (UTC) | ||

I believe policy says that if official artwork exists for a character, it is prioritized over screenshots. [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Category:Ash%27s_Pikachu There's plenty of Ash's Pikachu artwork.] [[User:Technickal|Technickal]] ([[User talk:Technickal|talk]]) 13:33, 7 April 2015 (UTC) | I believe policy says that if official artwork exists for a character, it is prioritized over screenshots.

:I believe a screenshot is used for Pikachu and Meowth to keep it consistient with the rest of Ash and Team Rocket's Pokémon. - [[User: | :I believe a screenshot is used for Pikachu and Meowth to keep it consistient with the rest of Ash and Team Rocket's Pokémon. - [[User:Coffee|<span style="color:#F85888">Chosen</span>]] <span style="color:#6890F0">of</span> [[User talk:Coffee|<span style="color:#F8D030">Mana</span>]] 14:23, 7 April 2015 (UTC) | ||
::But the rest of Ash's and Team Rocket's Pokémon don't have official solo artwork. Pikachu and Meowth do.

::::::::Yes, I asked an EB member for a feel of what the verdict will be on this. Obviously, if the staff thinks the nature should go there, I have to respect that, but I still disagree with it because the game and the anime ARE different. I still think this article could be split, as well, since the History section alone is longer than most other anime pages (it's longer than May's and Iris', I'm sure).

{{indent}}Okay, so the general consensus of the staff as of now is to remove all event exclusive related content from the main anime Pokémon infobox. Since we already have an event table on the page, the event exclusive information can be reserved for that space only. They way we view it is that the anime Pokémon and it's event counterpart is not intended to be one and the same. Plus, the games have to have natures & abilities. They're mandatory for the Pokemon to work properly. So, there's no guarantee that the abilities or natures used on an event are actually correct per the anime, unless the anime confirms it itself. This state of thought fits in with Bulbapedia's general games=/=anime stance.

:That's kinda what I thought. I am glad we have a consensus on it regardless so that we can apply it throughout the articles. I'll keep an eye out for things listed as confirmed by game events in the anime articles. [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 04:12, 23 May 2015 (UTC) | |||
