 Every once and a while, to avoid clutter on my talk page, I will move the messages to the [[User talk:Shiny Noctowl/Archive|archive]].
+I have noticed, rather tardly, that you ignored my revision to the [[Flower Paradise]] page and essentially reinserted the same paragraph. We at Bulbapedia expect intelligent editing to be met with some minimal respect; even if you strongly felt against removing your content, you should have explained your reasoning as I had explained my own. By not doing that you forced your own belief into a page that should represent facts or at least a consensus; what sort of gratification does that give you?
+The flower field in the Regigigas movie teaser should support speculation that the featured Pokémon will be Shaymin, as opposed to Arceus. It so happens that this comes as no surprise with or without the teaser. Now, a precedent lies in no less than ''ten'' movies, that no matter how reminiscent a movie setting is of a game location, it is not supposed to represent said location. That is to say, movie 1's New Island is not Cinnabar Island (where Mewtwo was created in the games), movie 2's Shamouti Island is not Navel Rock or any other game island, movie 3's Unown ruins are not Ruins of Alph (which, in the anime, are home only to fossils), movie 4's Celebi forest is not Ilex Forest (also visited in the anime on another occasion), movie 5's Altomare City is not part of Southern Island, movie 7's Deoxys crash place is not Birth Island, and finally, movie 9's land and ocean settings are far remote from Summerland beach (I doubt that any of movies 6, 8 and 10 has even been seriously associated with a game location). What leads you to conclude that movie 11 and Flower Paradise are so inherently destined to intertwine that a sudden exception is in order? For the record, there is no guarantee that the final movie will feature a setting of a similar nature to that shown in the teaser (movie 8's teaser showcased an island that, be it Faraway Island or not, was nowhere to be seen in the actual film).
+If to be fair, it is possible that Flower Paradise is not bounded geographically to any one location, being conjured along with [[Seabreak Path]] by Shaymin wherever a special stone monument is found (and when someone has expressed gratitude). This is hinted by Professor Oak during the game event, alluding to a similar monument in Kanto. If the movie's plot were to include the conjuring of a flower garden in which Shaymin resided, then you would be able to properly link the movie setting to the game location as being a product of Shaymin's powers, but even then you would not be able to claim they are one and the same.
