What's your point? At this point I'm assuming no mod is actually checking the pages of these "old" X and Y Pokemon anymore, so I'll just wait till the page gets unlocked (presumably after the release of X and Y) and do it myself.

Even without Mudkip, Piplup would NOT be the first non reptile water starter, I'm not kidding. I think it would me more informative that every grass starter before Chespin had a strong reptilian resemblence or some indication of being a reptile. Being the first mammal is not as informative if you don' know what the other starters were and, in my opinion, doesn't feel as notable since Cyndaquil has the same trait, and Cyndaquil is the first mammal starter period. Mudkip is the first water type amphibian starter and Oshawott is the first mammal water starter. Just listing that might as well mean the other starters were anything but mammals instead of a trend. | |||

*It is probably just simpler to leave it the way it is.

It is the first grass starter mammal, let's just leave it at that. Sidenote: As stated before me, turtles are definitely reptiles. Amphibians go through a metamorphosis, turtles never do that. Also, amphibians can breath through their skin, turtles don't.

Birds are considered reptiles, even if Mudkip was a reptile the first non reptile water starter would be oshawott. | |||

:Birds are not considered reptiles. They are a separate class of animals distinct from both mammals and reptiles. [[User:Crystal Talian|<span style="color:#9F00C5">Crystal</span>]] [[User talk:Crystal Talian|<span style="color:#FF00FF">Talian</span>]] 00:05, 18 September 2013 (UTC) | |||
Incorrect, birds are under Archosauria, the same group as crocodiles, and theropoda, a subgroup of dinosaurs. Birds are reptiles. This information is relatively new and not widespread but I assure you ti is fact. It is true, however, that they do not follow the typical (antiquated) dictionary definition, and are only reptiles from a scientific standpoint. The entire reptile family had become so widespread that it is no longer specific, crocodiles aren't much closer to snakes than we are. In fact, the common dictionary definition of reptile directly conflicts with the dictionary definition of dinosaur, the entire group was named before we knew much about it. All of the new definitions are being rewritten because the group is so big you cannot include turtles, lizards, crocodiles, dinosaurs, and many of the other animals we consider reptiles as birds.

::This discussion is long since over. Discussions with no replies are typically closed after six months, and the last reply on this one was nearly a year ago. That aside, this is a moot point now as we have been specifically given Chespin's origin. All of that aside, Archosauria still separates birds and crocodilians into distinct clades. It's still perfectly reasonably to consider them separately, particularly when scientific nomentclature is a constantly changing and adapting way of classification.

My apologies for the necro. Not-so-recent studies have already proven birds lack any distinguishing or exclusive qualities to become entirely separate from reptiles (That is if one defines a dinosaur as a reptile), merely a lack of particular qualities. My point was never about Chespin's origin but the inaccurate information I saw. And yes the nomenclature is always changing, this is why the idea that birds are in any way separate from reptilia and the phylogenically-off term "reptiles" is outdated. They have far too much in common with later theropods to be considered a whole entire group on their own. The titles of bird and reptile date back to before we knew much about either creature at all, way back when frogs were considered reptiles because of their appearance. The term reptile is now starting to be equated to the scientific term reptilia for sake of convenience, as the original term was based on appearance and not science. If reptile=reptilia then birds are reptiles. If one actually considers then separate then they take a huge chunk of theropoda with them.

Couldn't you do something like put the number you think it might be, put it in question marks like a Spanish question, and then put a thing at the top saying this is what it might be, but it's not certain. --[[User:Ziggyangelo88|Ziggyangelo88]] ([[User talk:Ziggyangelo88|talk]]) 07:26, 12 August 2013 (UTC) | |||

But in Serebii.net , they actually have all Party Sprites and the Pokémon Front "Sprite" , it would be better if someone put them in all the Gen VI Pokémon. | |||

:Serebii has asked sites to not take images from him, so using sprites from there is not likely to happen. --[[User:Funktastic~!|<span style="color:#009900">'''It's'''</span> <span style="color:#CC66FF">'''Funktastic~!'''</span>]][[User talk:Funktastic~!|<sub><small><span style="color:#99CCFF">''話してください''</span></small></sub>]] 17:01, 24 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
Sorry... But then , people need to gather and create a Project in here for Ripping the Sprites... | |||
This is going to be harder because there are no 3DS emulators... But we need the Sprites , it can't stay like that forever. {{unsigned|PoisonPlush}} | |||
:A project isn't really the solution. The problem is that the only way to currently get the sprites is with a capture device which costs upwards of $300. If we have someone who can do that, that's one thing, but that isn't something we can rely on. --[[User:Funktastic~!|<span style="color:#009900">'''It's'''</span> <span style="color:#CC66FF">'''Funktastic~!'''</span>]][[User talk:Funktastic~!|<sub><small><span style="color:#99CCFF">''話してください''</span></small></sub>]] 21:47, 24 October 2013 (UTC) | |||
== Brown spot == | |||
On the back of his head chespin has a brown spot it can be seen in the game pictures when he uses leech seed and again in the anime trailer for X and Y just look at the side of his head as he does that with his spikes, should this be added to Physiology? --[[User:Pokemans 100|Pokemans 100]] ([[User talk:Pokemans 100|talk]]) 15:32, 21 July 2013 (UTC) | |||
:You got to it before I did! Bah, how dare you! lol. Though it's pure speculation, I wonder if maybe that could be a gender difference, like {{p|Buizel}}. Anyway, [http://www.tehkapi.tk/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/chespot2.gif here's] the spot from one scene of the anime preview. (And a "[http://www.tehkapi.tk/wp-content/uploads/2013/07/chespot.jpeg clean]" version, if you'd like.) --[[User:Tails0600|<span style="color:orange">Tails</span>]][[User talk:Tails0600|<span style="color:black">0600</span>]]'' 10:16, 24 July 2013 (UTC) | |||
well either way for now it should be added since it is a part of chespins appearance if it turns out to be a gender difference it can always be changed.--[[User:Pokemans 100|Pokemans 100]] ([[User talk:Pokemans 100|talk]]) 23:14, 29 July 2013 (UTC) | |||
