Talk:Carbink (Pokémon)

Wait a second

How do we know Carbink's Egg Group? TorchicBlaziken ^{(talk•edits)} 22:17, 3 November 2013 (UTC)

All the new Pokemon have their Egg Group listed in the official guidebook. Crystal Talian 04:00, 4 November 2013 (UTC)

Unique type combination?

Doesn't Carbink share its type, Rock/Fairy, with Diance? JordanTH (talk) 19:30, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Diance is unconfirmed, so we don't put any info about it. --Wynd Fox 19:44, 20 November 2013 (UTC)

Diancie

Pokemon.com says that Carbink gather around Diancie. TorchicBlaziken ^{(talk•edits)} 19:06, 14 February 2014 (UTC)

M17

wasn't carbink confirmed to appear in M17? --The Truth aka Relicant 07:54, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Not yet, not until the movie is released. --Cinday123 (Talk) 07:57, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Oh, according to a story description of the new movie, it was confirmed. --Cinday123 (Talk) 08:02, 15 February 2014 (UTC)

Base friendship

Because Carbink's base friendship was confirmed to be 70, could someone add it? --Cinday123 (Talk) 01:13, 16 February 2014 (UTC)

Um, I requested that it has a base friendship of 70, but it was protected so could staff members add it because I couldn't edit it until the protection from editing was expired. --Cinday123 (Talk) 10:35, 18 February 2014 (UTC)

Ah! The base friendship isn't from an official Pokémon website! My bad. --Cinday123 (Talk) 23:34, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

"Strange Mutation"

According to the press release revealing Diancie, Diancie are created when Carbink undergo a strange mutation. Should this be added? (I suggest adding it in Trivia.) NerfPlayeR135 (talk) 22:09, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

See here. --The Truth aka Relicant 22:13, 19 February 2014 (UTC)

Revert

Because Carbink's catch rate is not confirmed, could someone revert my edits? --Cinday123 (Talk) 06:56, 20 February 2014 (UTC)

Forme difference

It looks like Carbink has some different forms. https://twitter.com/pokejungle/status/442204092186644480/photo/1

Yamitora1 (talk) 08:18, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

Possibly. However, we're not adding any information until we can confirm they're actual forms and not just aesthetic variations. The anime and movies often vary Pokemon appearances a bit so the viewer can tell them apart with them actually being new forms. Crystal Talian 09:04, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

Anime appearance

Because Carbink was confirmed to be in the new Pokémon movie, could someone add this to the anime section? --Cinday123 (Talk) 23:36, 8 March 2014 (UTC)

TCG

Just made Carbink's TCG page, so if staff could put that, please and thankya. glik^glak 16:59, 15 March 2014 (UTC)

Added. --Pokemaster 97 17:50, 15 March 2014 (UTC)

Evolution?

On the page, like most single-stage pokemon, "It is not known to evolve into or from any other Pokémon." is listed. Shouldn't "Rarely, Carbink will undergo a strange mutation and transform into Diancie." be moved up next to this, similar to how it is on Manaphy and Phione's page?

Form Change

I scrolled down on Serebii news (http://www.serebii.net/index2.shtml) and found what appears to be an official picture that confirms a possible "form change" for Carbink. Can this be added to the article? The Seeker (talk) 17:22, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

They're probably just the named Carbink (Di, Majima, Knight and Joke) that will be appearing in Diancie and the Cocoon of Destruction. MetalMetroid997 (talk) 17:25, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

They are. And they're not a Form Change. Each of the Carbink have their own unique appearance to differentiate themselves from other members of the same species. It's like Sparky. Or the Spiky-eared Pichu. Ataro (talk) 17:29, 10 June 2014 (UTC)

Trivia

Couldn't the Base Stat distribution of Carbink could be considered the opposite (or a variation) of Deoxys's? While Deoxys's base stat distribution is 50, 150, 50, 150, 50, 150, Carbink's is 50, 50, 150, 50, 150, 150. Rithvikkiran (talk) 22:22, 9 December 2014 (UTC)

I think that's really, really, really uninteresting. It just sounds like a "so what?" sort of thing.--Force Fire 03:08, 10 December 2014 (UTC)
