→Juan's sprite
| Line 250: | Line 250: | ||
I'll put my argument here in order to avoid an edit war: I base my view on this into other similar cases of Bulbapedia. Like this: on [[Fuchsia City]]'s page, we use the FR/LG sprite for [[Koga]], since FireRed and LeafGreen were the last games where he last worked as the Fuchsia Gym Leader; and the HG/SS VS sprite for [[Janine]], whose most recent appearance as the Fuchsia Gym Leader was in those games. We don't use Koga's HG/SS VS sprite to represent him, since he's an [[Elite Four]] member at the time. Another similar case is with [[Blaine]]: his Gym was last located on [[Cinnabar Island]] in FR/LG, hence the Generation III sprite there; while the [[Seafoam Islands]], his Gym's location in HG/SS, use the Generation IV VS sprite. Hence, I figured that Juan should have his Emerald sprite for the [[Sootopolis City]] page. Using his headshot is perfectly fine at the [[Hoenn League]] page is perfectly fine for consistency's sake, but I feel that in order to follow this same kind of consistency, we ''shouldn't'' use it on Sootopolis City's page. I hope my explanation made my point of view clear. Please tell me whether you agree or disagree. Thank you for reading. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:56, 23 October 2017 (UTC) | I'll put my argument here in order to avoid an edit war: I base my view on this into other similar cases of Bulbapedia.

:I disagree. We shouldn't have to use an outdated sprite from 2004 when we have a better image. Simple as that. Doesn't it look better to have Juan's headshot in the infobox? Isn't it more fitting, considering Wallace's fabulous headshot just above?<br>I can provide examples of pages in which Koga's HGSS sprite is used to refer to a time in which he was a Gym Leader. See [[Kanto#Gym Leaders|here]], and [[Gym Leader#Indigo League|here as well]], and [[Gym#Official Gyms|don't forget here]]. If we're talking about a character's party in a specific game, then I agree we should use whatever sprite/model was used in that game, but for these infoboxes and large tables? Uh no. Let's use what looks prettier please. --[[User:Mikuri|<span style="color:#2b915e;">'''Mi'''</span>]][[User talk: Mikuri|<span style="color:#52cc91;">'''ku'''</span>]][[Special:Contributions/Mikuri|<span style="color:#8debbc;">'''ri'''</span>]] 01:38, 24 October 2017 (UTC) | :I disagree.

::Pardon for the late reply, but I respectfully disagree. While I also think that the most recent sprites/models should be used in pages like [[Indigo League|this]] and those you mentioned, what I meant was that in case with the sprites presented on articles about cities and towns, we should handle it [[Cinnabar Island|like]] [[Seafoam Islands|this]]. See? Just like I said above: Blaine's Gym was situated on Cinnabar Island in Generations I and III (hence the Gen. III sprite there), and on Seafoam Islands in Generations II and IV (hence the Gen. IV VS. sprite there). And since the last (and only) game where Juan was the Sootopolis Gym Leader was Emerald, we should use the Emerald sprite for him on Sootopolis City's page, while Wallace, having been a Gym Leader there in ORAS, can retain his "fabulous" VS. art from there. But, like said, I don't mind Juan's VS. model being retained [[Hoenn League|here]]. Please. I hope you'll understand now. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:08, 27 October 2017 (UTC) | |||
