== Bubble Beam ==
Should we put the one bubble Bubblebeam from the Onix episode as an improvised move??[[User:1rkhachatryan|RBK]] ([[User talk:1rkhachatryan|talk]]) 05:03, 12 July 2012 (UTC)

::How recently? The four most recent are what we should assume he still knows. If all five were used in [[BW086]] and [[BW087]], it may be an error. [[User:Digifiend|Digifiend]] ([[User talk:Digifiend|talk]]) 19:17, 23 July 2012 (UTC)

== Not Drill Peck ==
Saw the episode that Piplup supposedly uses Drill Peck in (with subtitles) and the subtitles didn't say it was Drill Peck. Rather, it was called "spinning Peck", which reminded me of something that Piplup did in a contest once. I know the subtitles aren't a reliable source, but just putting it out there. [[User:Dilophosaurus Rex|Dilophosaurus Rex]] ([[User talk:Dilophosaurus Rex|talk]]) 10:36, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
:However, Dawn actually ordered Piplup to use Drill Peck (Doriru Kuchibashi/Drill Beak in Japanese). As you said, the subtitles can be wrong.--'''[[User:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#AB0909">電</font><font color="#063A73">禅</font>]]<small>[[User talk:Dennou Zenshi|<font color="#fff" face="Tahoma"><span style="text-shadow:#000 0.2em 0.1em 0.1em; class=texhtml">Den Zen</span></font>]]</small>''' 10:54, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
::Yes, subs are not always accurate. And as Dennou said, she actually commanded Piplup to use "Doriru Kuchibashi". So, there is no doubt about the move, unless it's an error in the script which is very ''very'' '''very''' unlikely. <span style="color:#009900">♫♪</span> [[User:Adyniz|<span style="color:#A80000;">'''エイデ'''</span>]][[User talk:Adyniz|<span style="color:#003399;">'''ィニズ'''</span>]] <span style="color:#009900">♪♫</span> 16:40, 12 July 2012 (UTC)
:::The preview of BW090 showed a completely different Drill Peck than the one in BW086. It could just be an animation change though of the same move...[[User:G50|<span style="color:blue">''G''</span>]][[User talk:G50|<span style="color:orange">''50''</span>]]  11:02, 26 July 2012 (UTC)
== Counter Shield? ==
In the Improvised moves section it shows that in Piplup vs. Pansage episode it showed at the very bottom of the list Piplup using Bubblebem while spinning as a variation of Counter Shield, but this combination was used in Like or Lup it, I think it is the very same technique, so shouldn't it retain its name but being placed on the top of the list?--[[User:Igor Castro Chucre|Igor ]] ([[User talk:Igor Castro Chucre|talk]]) 13:33, 10 September 2012 (UTC)
== Why is Ash's Pokémon on this article? ==
At the bottom the article has both Dawn's Pokemon on hand and Ash's, why is that, this doesn't happen on May's page. [[User:Yamitora1|Yamitora1]] ([[User talk:Yamitora1|talk]]) 08:58, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
:Ash borrowed Piplup. ☆<span style="font-family:Algerian">[[User:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:green">The</span>]] [[User talk:Solar Dragon|<span style="color:red">Solar</span>]] [[Special:Contributions/Solar Dragon|<span style="color:blue">Dragon</span>]]</span>☆ 10:03, 12 August 2013 (UTC)
== XY Mention ==
Is it relevant to include Ash's remark about Piplup when he visits Ambrette Aquarium? I think it is a nice reference but thought it would be best to debate whether  or not it is relevant. ([[User:Piplup J|Piplup J]] ([[User talk:Piplup J|talk]]) 22:06, 25 March 2015 (UTC))

::Not what they meant:they wanted it gone because they feel it isn't relevant/notable. I think a note of time passing and continutiy is indeed notable. --[[User:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|BlisseyandtheAquaJets]] ([[User talk:BlisseyandtheAquaJets|talk]]) 03:39, 26 March 2015 (UTC)
== Episode Absences ==
What episodes is it absent in the DP series? --[[User:Feelitstill23|Feelitstill23]] ([[User talk:Feelitstill23|talk]]) 04:18, 7 May 2018 (UTC)Feelitstill23
The page says there are 17 episodes in which Piplup does not appear, but I only found 16:
*[[DP008]] ''Gymbaliar!''
*[[DP013]] ''A Staravia Is Born!''
*[[DP014]] ''Leave It To Brocko!''
*[[DP015]] ''Shapes of Things to Come!''
*[[DP016]] ''A Gruff Act to Follow!''
*[[DP020]] ''Mutiny in the Bounty!''
*[[DP022]] ''Borrowing on Bad Faith!''
*[[DP028]] ''Drifloon On The Wind!''
*[[DP030]] ''The Grass-Type Is Always Greener!''
*[[DP037]] ''The Grass Menagerie!''
*[[DP040]] ''Top-Down Training!''
*[[DP045]] ''Ill-Will Hunting!''
*[[DP054]] ''Once There Were Greenfields''
*[[DP056]] ''The Keystone Pops!''
*[[DP058]] ''Nosing 'Round the Mountain!''
*[[DP059]] ''Luxray Vision!''
I double checked all of the episodes between DP008 and DP059, those were all I could find. While it could well be that there is one after DP059, but that would contradict the articles for both DP059, which states that it is the final episode of the series in which Piplup does not appear, and [[Walking Pokémon#In_the_anime|walking Pokémon]], where it says that Dawn starts carrying Piplup around starting in [[DP060]] (''Journey to the Unown!''), which to me implies that, aside from the times Dawn withdraws him before a Contest (or extenuating circumstances like in [[DP149]] (''Sticking With Who You Know!''), where she withdrew Piplup into his ball in a failed attempt to separate him from Pikachu), Piplup chooses to stay outside of his Poké Ball, where he is always visible in the episode, at least briefly. (Sometimes very briefly, as in [[DP117]] (''Noodles! Roamin' Off!'').) So I didn't bother to check the episodes after DP059.
The 17th absence could be [[DPS02]], which was only aired in Japan and focuses on Brock after he returns to Pewter City and only features Piplup in the form of a photograph on his wall. The article for that episode does not list that as one where Piplup is absent, but if I remember correctly, appearances that are only in photographs or the like generally do not count as an appearance, at least not to the extent that the character being physically present is. And since the episode was released only in Japan, I could see someone failing to update the article for DP059 to account for it. 
Extremely late answer, I know, but better late than never. [[User:Red Knight|Red Knight]] ([[User talk:Red Knight|talk]]) 11:34, 22 February 2024 (UTC)
