Look at this, this is so much like Anabel. We should include this on the page. --[[User:Stinkoman|1-Up]] 20:47, 11 August 2007 (UTC) | Look at this, this is so much like Anabel. We should include this on the page. --[[User:Stinkoman|1-Up]] 20:47, 11 August 2007 (UTC) | ||

: All of the old games' Battle Tree contenders use their original themes. Even Cynthia, who (like Anabel) has already had revamped versions of her theme in the past. So I wouldn't consider that to be evidence that SM's Anabel came from the original games' universe. A more compelling point might be that Looker says Anabel used to protect a tower (obviously implied to be the Battle Tower), which doesn't exist yet in ORAS... but we're not sure of the timeline between SM and ORAS, so it's fully possible that construction of ORAS's Battle Tower was completed before the events of Sun and Moon.

Actually, Blue, Red, Cynthia... all use updated versions of their original team, and I do believe that Looker mentoined Anabel sympathised with the UBs because they too were hurdled into another world, all of which does very strongly imply that Anabel came from "the original universe" mentoined by Zinnia in ORAS. Even so I will admit that this is all based on speculation and never outright stated, so it shouldn't make it into the trivia section. Lastly, the official timeline does in fact place ORAS at the same time as th original RSE, and SM take place two years after XY/B2W2.([[User talk:Charmeleon2495|talk]]) 18:18, 23 December 2016 (UTC) | |||
:She did also mention that battling in the Battle Tree made her feel nostalgic as well, which would only make sense if she was a Frontier Brain at the time she was caught in the Ultra Wormhole. All that aside, there is one concrete thing we can use. Looker mentioned Anabel was found ten years before the events of SM- if we can figure out exactly how much time elapsed between ORAS and SM, we should be able to deduce whether or not she came from the "original universe".--[[User:UB00|UB00]] ([[User talk:UB00|talk]]) 02:43, 31 December 2016 (UTC) | |||

::The overarching issue appears to be mentioned [[Talk:Frontier Brain#Individual Frontier Brain page names|here]]. I agree that Anabel's page title (and by extension, any Frontier Brain's) should not unnecessarily include the Trainer class at all.

:::None of the other Frontier Brains have been part of the games outside of the Frontier. Also I am sure that there have been ordinary trainers who share a name with a Frontier Brain. Wouldn't keeping the Trainer Class in the name help distinguish the character? [[User:RedTheGuy|RedTheGuy]] ([[User talk:RedTheGuy|talk]]) 02:18, 2 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
::::The thing is that we can distinguish them just as easily with a parenthetical, such as Anabel (Battle Frontier). That's what we do with virtually all other pages on this wiki... as far as I know, it's ''just'' the Frontier Brains and a tiny handful of other isolated cases that use Trainer classes to disambiguate instead of parentheticals.

::::::There isn't another ''notable'' Anabel. Everyone who types "Anabel" is expected to be looking for this one, and that's part of why its title should be that. For example, we also have [[Joey]] (i.e., neither "Youngster Joey" nor "Joey (Youngster)"), although it is even mentioned at his article that there are many more (unnotable) Joeys. If another (equally) notable Joey/Anabel/whoever pops up, the article can still be moved. [[User:Nescientist|Nescientist]] ([[User talk:Nescientist|talk]]) 15:52, 4 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
:::::::I wouldn't really have an opinion, but the fact that Joey, if anything a less notable character who has always appeared under the same title, has a page just called Joey, tells me that Anabel should be moved. --[[User:Celadonkey|<span style="color:#287a43">Celad</span>]][[User_talk:Celadonkey|<span style="color:#e85545">onkey</span>]] 17:09, 4 April 2017 (UTC) | |||
:I support a hypothetical move. Anabel has now established herself in a role that is completely outside the Battle Frontier. [[User:GrammarFreak01|GrammarFreak01]] ([[User talk:GrammarFreak01|talk]]) 03:04, 25 September 2017 (UTC) | |||
