What if part of it's origin was based on the two families from Romeo and Juliet? It's probably no but I thought might explain why they quarrel so much. [[User:Smashbrother101|Smashbrother101]] 02:11, 8 February 2011 (UTC)

== EV yeild? ==
I was EV training my Weavile and the EVs given out by a Macho Brace seems to be 2, as I reseted my stats with the stat reducing berries, and found out that I needed 124 more EVs, can someone explain why? --[[User:Sapphowako|Sapphowako]] 00:46, 26 April 2012 (UTC)
== Ability glitch ==
Blue-Striped Basculin now have Rock Head as their first Ability, as the data in the games said in Black and White. According to Serebii, there was a glitch in Black and White that made wild and hatched Blue-Striped Basculin use Red-Striped Basculin's Ability list, hence only the in-game trade one had the correct Ability. I can confirm that this is now fixed, but I can't work out how to add a note to the Ability Reckless to this effect. Could someone with better knowledge of wiki markup make this alteration?

:"According to Serebii" - You know that Serebii is not too reliable? I don't add anything from Serebii, unless I can confirm it in-game (such as Glameow appearing in Hidden Grotto during a special Funfest Mission, which is true {{tt|as I witnessed that|By this part I mean I actually started that particular Funfest Mission, entered Hidden Grotto and it actually had a Glameow inside}}).

::Confirming it, just found a Blue Striped Rock Head Basculin in Floccesy Ranch (Then caught one with Adaptability to remove any doubt for people in denial). Go nuts. - [[User:Blazios|<span style="color:navy">Blazios</span>]] [[User Talk:Blazios|<span style="color:limegreen"><sub>talk</sub></span>]] 14:46, 19 October 2012 (UTC)
:::I don't know how to change the Ability thing in the table to reflect multiple forms; that's why I didn't just change it. And I know Serebii's not considered a reliable source; if you'd read what I said, I had actually confirmed this before posting.[[User:Seafarer|Seafarer]] ([[User talk:Seafarer|talk]]) 02:53, 20 October 2012 (UTC)

"One fish, two fish, red fish, blue fish"
Sounds like Basculin to me...{{unsigned|Dralcax}}
:The {{DL|Talk: Keldeo (Pokémon)|Keldeo can't be based on a toy?|general rule of thumb}} on Bulbapedia seems to be not to make comparisons to copyrighted works unless it's overwhelmingly obvious (such as Tyranitar being partially based on Godzilla). Red and blue are [http://tvtropes.org/pmwiki/pmwiki.php/Main/RedIndexBlueIndex common colors for opposites], so it could very well be a coincidence.

== Possible Largemouth/Smallmouth connection? ==
When I hear "freshwater bass", I immediately think of the two most popular sportfish in the US, the similar but distinct Largemouth Bass and Smallmouth Bass; both are native to New York (along with a lot of Eastern North America), and both have proven popular enough to be introduced around the world as gamefish, including Japan. Could the two forms of Basculin be related to Largemouth and Smallmouth Bass? [[User:Masternachos|Masternachos]] ([[User talk:Masternachos|talk]]) 03:56, 15 December 2015 (UTC)
