:::::::Yeah, he's glitch Pokémon #234, which has the type listed as Pokémaniac (which is probably how he got his name).  I wasn't sure where to put him, the only thing canon about him is the name so the "not canon" section seemed to be the best category for him.  [[User:Dannyjenn|Dannyjenn]] 14:35, 24 March 2012 (UTC)

::::::::You're both right on the money: Tricket was inspired by Kage no Mushi, Hifishi by Bukū/Qwilfish, and The Unidentified Dragon by the giant Dragonite from the anime. The Hifishi code was sometimes circulated with the Bukū artwork while The Unidentified Dragon code had an alternate version that clearly referenced the anime episode. The Pokémon included on the 151 - 161 list were first mentioned ''before'' the release of even Red/Blue, meaning the names were in reference to actual Pokémon. They are not strictly PokéGods because the list was circulated months before the phenomenon even began. [[User:Slowpokeisgod|Slowpokeisgod]] 00:30, 25 March 2012 (UTC)

:::::::::Okay, if you want to update those then go ahead.  Personally, I've never seen any pictures of any sort circulated with any of those three codes, but it makes sense.  Are you sure about that list existing before Red / Blue though?  I've seen it before Gold / Silver, but not much earlier than that.  Not to mention that none of those names sound anything like any real Pokémon, so I doubt they're based off of anything (even if the list was around before Red / Blue, it's more likely that someone just added those extras to the list).

==Mist Stone==
That rumour of how to obtain the Mist Stone is unnecessary.  The Mist Stone should be mentioned as the stone that supposedly evolves certain Pokémon (some rumours saying it can evolve any Pokémon), but the rumour itself shouldn't be there (if we started listing rumours then we should list rumours for how to obtain each of the Pokégods as well... which would be extremely long (even if we just included the most well-known ones) and I don't think Bulbapedia is the place for that).  Not to mention that the rumour that's currently on this page is obscure / not even the most common rumour out there... the one that I have heard of the most is "use the item finder a certain number of times (usually 100 or "on every tile") in Seafoam Islands to find it".

:There were many secret stones rumored with each said to evolve a specific type or even Pokémon. The Mist Stone was just one of many (intended for Pikablu) that eventually became a catch-all. The rumor you mention is indeed the most prominent. [[User:Slowpokeisgod|Slowpokeisgod]] 21:44, 22 March 2012 (UTC)
