== Capitalization == | |||
Currently, we treat this page as a proper noun (Forces of Nature). However, I think potentially it should be sentence case instead. | |||
* In Pokémon.com's closed captions for [[BW097]], it is lowercase ("forces of nature") all three times it is used. | |||
* In [[Pokémon Legends: Arceus]], the description of the request "Incarnate Forces of Hisui" says "''Legend has it that Hisui is home to a group of Pokémon said to be '''forces of nature''' incarnate.''" (lowercase) | |||
* On the [https://youtu.be/bK-lQMnZSws?t=188 back of] the 2018 TCG set ''Pokémon TCG: Forces of Nature GX Premium Collection'', it says "''The season of storms grows, and winds gather strength as the '''forces of nature''' combine in this massive collection.''" | |||
** In [https://www.pokemon.com/us/pokemon-tcg/product-gallery/forces-of-nature-gx-premium-collection/ Pokémon.com's description] for the 2018 TCG set ''Pokémon TCG: Forces of Nature GX Premium Collection'', the group are referred to as the "forces of nature" (lowercase) in the same text that appears on the back of the box; but then also referred to as the "Forces of Nature" (title case) at the end of the paragraph (in text that does not appear on the box). | |||
* I was not able to find any usage of "Forces of Nature" in promotional material for the 2012 TCG set ''Pokémon TCG: Forces of Nature Collection'', outside of the name of the product. | |||
Given that the games, anime, and TCG all seem to be in agreement on the capitalization, I think it makes the most sense to use lowercase. Since the Pokémon.com article on the TCG product is internally inconsistent, I think it's fine to disregard the one time it uses title case. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 11:42, 28 June 2023 (UTC) | |||
