+== Rotom Drone ==
+Could Rotom Drone be a recurring wild Pokémon in the anime?
+Or even create its own page as Rotom Phone, and adding information about the games and manga. --[[User:Daniel humberto|Daniel humberto]] ([[User talk:Daniel humberto|talk]]) 01:12, 25 April 2020 (UTC)

+::I guess it is like Don George or Nurse Joy, that there are a lot of individual characters, but we only have a page for them in general, matbe Rotom Drone could be one of them.

+== Ash’s Meltan ==
+Why is it still needed in the Caught list when the extent of the entry is described in the Melmetal entry in its entirety? It acts as if it’s a completely separate entity when it no longer is. Honestly, I think the best solution is actually keeping the bullet, having it incorporate the entire Meltan clan into the bulleted entry, removing the section--[[User:KnightGalarie|KnightGalarie]] ([[User talk:KnightGalarie|talk]]) 22:12, 9 May 2020 (UTC)
+== Naming conventions ==
+As some of you may know, {{u|Adil/Sandbox#Recurring wild Pokémon in the anime|we are planning to split this article}} soon. A few of these Pokémon will get their own articles and most of the others will go to 'in the anime' section of the respective species page. We have a good idea what we want the criteria for recurring Pokémon to be. One of the issues under discussion is the naming convention, and it's something we'd appreciate your input on. Currently, we have narrowed it down to this as our potential approach in the future:
+Under normal circumstance, we will use "(anime)" in the title along with the Pokémon's name, provided that there is no ambiguity (further explained in the next paragraph). Among such articles, it would include:
+* Lugia (anime), Lake Guardians (anime), Forces of Nature (anime), Meloetta (anime), Malamar (anime), Wooper (anime), Florges (anime), Guardian deities (anime), Bewear (anime), Stoutland (anime), Oranguru (anime), Light trio (anime), and Ultra Beasts (anime). The new ones that will be moved from this page will also be named accordingly, if they fit. However, a limitation of using (anime) in the title is that it implies that the article includes all characters of that species in the anime, when that is not the case here, since generally it'd only include a single character.
+Where using '(anime)' is insufficient, i.e. when we have two or more notable characters of the same species in the anime, then the series name can be used for the respective article. If that doesn't work, i.e. they both appear within the same series, then the region's name can be used. Or is the order of preference, b/w series & region, the other way around? Someone on staff can hopefully correct me on this. For CotDs, we can use the epicode (see [[Carrie (XY092)]] for the sake of an example).
+* The Weather trio in the anime is a good case for this. We {{u|Adil/Weather trio (anime)|considered naming them with '(anime)' in the title}} and as a single article, but that makes less sense since not all of them appeared in the same storyline. We want to group those Pokémon that were part of the same plot in an episode/set of episodes/arc together. For example, Kyogre and Groudon from Ruby and Sapphire series under one article as 'Kyogre and Groudon (Ruby & Sapphire series)', those that appeared in XY as 'Kyogre and Groudon (XY series)', and so on. We cannot name them based on regions, as all of them appeared in Hoenn. I guess one more possibility would be naming XY characters 'Primal Kyogre (Hoenn/anime)' and 'Primal Groudon (Hoenn/anime)', but yeah that's just a thought.
+We are aware of the fact that both the region and the series naming conventions have limitations, if two very notable characters of the same species were to appear in the same region or the same series. Eventually, there will be some case where our pre-defined method won't work, and we'll have to come up with something new. Let us consider, if the Shaymin that appeared in DP168 was notable enough, it would have been confusing to call it both Shaymin (Sinnoh) or Shaymin (DP) because of the movie Shaymin (whose name wouldn't have been affected) who is from the same region and series. Anyway, that's just a possibility that may or may not occur in future. What we have mentioned above are the possible solutions that were brought up during our discussions.
+We just wanted to be more transparent about this, so that there is less confusion as to why some articles are named one way and some are done differently. You're more than welcome to chime in and give your thoughts on this. Thank you.
