::It's wrong because it has nothing to do with the text of the question, but I've repeated that enough for you to already know it. It's only a "possible" choice if it has as many advantages as the best choice, thus making it also the best choice. For example, Torkoal is listed as the best choice to battle Shiftry, but Taillow has an equally advantageous match-up, so we mention it. A more complex example would be the best choice to battle Tyrogue: Togetic is listed because its Flying attacks would be super effective, but Dustox's double resistance would arguably be a better choice. —<font face="Segoe UI"><span style="text-shadow:grey 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em">[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="#fff">The</font>]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="red">Best</font>]]</span></font> 15:32, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

:::You're being too technical. You think 4kids actually knew anything about the technical aspects of Pokémon? '''They told us that Arbok evolved into Seviper.''' They knew nothing. Taillow was added not because it is equally as good as Torkoal (because it isn't), it's mentioned because it has a '''type that is super effective against Shiftry'''. The Togetic note is too technical, again, 4kids knew nothing of the technical aspects of the franchise, so that shouldn't note the technicalities of the question. Again, they are there '''not''' because they are equally as good, but they are there because because they '''have a type that is super effective against the opponent'''.--[[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>]] 16:30, 7 April 2015 (UTC)

::::I'm really not. My version of the notes would be shorter and simpler. "Choice B is the best because of its X advantage/s and Y resistance/s." That's it. Taillow's type is equally good against a Grass type as Torkoal's is. Come on, FF, You know better than to even think about stats when these questions are only about typing. Togetic/Dustox is the only "technical" one and it's not hard to understand at all: one has offensive advantages, and the other, defensive. Again, that criteria is your opinion alone. Mentioning every favorable match-up is neither relevant to the question, notable in this encyclopedia, nor useful to the reader. This has gone on long enough. Please discuss this with another administrator or allow me to do so. —<font face="Segoe UI"><span style="text-shadow:grey 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em">[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="#fff">The</font>]]Very[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="red">Best</font>]]</span></font> 02:06, 8 April 2015 (UTC)
