::::::Oh, so there was a press release or GF blog article stating that Sandshrew and Ekans are counterparts? --[[User:Transfinite|Transfinite]] | [[User talk: Transfinite|Talk]] 14:18, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
:If its in the game code, it is considered official. It doesn't have to bee actually spoken. There has been no official comment on Keldeo, Meloetta and Genesect, but they are still in the game code. So until Game Freak speaks of them, will you not consider them to be Pokemon? <small><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:blue; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span></small> 14:24, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
::What part of the game code denotes them as counterparts? This is the stupidest fucking thing. --[[User:Transfinite|Transfinite]] | [[User talk: Transfinite|Talk]] 14:25, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
:::He was just using game code as a comparable example. No need to go overboard. I also don't see why similarities can't be something included. Maybe not state that they are counterparts, since we don't have any proof of it, but I have no problem with listing the similarities.

::::They shouldn't be included because they are stupid, pointless, and subjective. The goal should be to reduce the amount of trivia, not to increase it. Otherwise, if the similarities between Ekans and Sandshrew are noted, would this be okay?:
<blockquote>''Wingull shares its catch rate of 190 with Chinchou, another dual-typed Water Pokémon (although it is part Electric, not Flying). Chinchou and Wingull are also similar in that they evolve two levels apart, Chinchou evolving at level 27 and Wingull at level 25. Further, they both have 50/50 gender ratios, and their Almia Browser numbers are 10 apart (Wingull's is 78 and Chinchou's is 88). It should also be noted that their Dream World abilities, Rain Dish and Water Absorb, both recover HP when in the presence of water, though the exact mechanisms are different.''</blockquote>
::::Seriously, I am going to go add that ''right now'' if you think these bogus so-called "similarities" warrant being mentioned. --[[User:Transfinite|Transfinite]] | [[User talk: Transfinite|Talk]] 14:40, 22 April 2011 (UTC)
:::::There's no need to be an ass. There are similarities between Sandshrew and Ekans, particularly regarding where they could be obtained in the first two generations. Sandshrew was exclusive to Blue on certain routes, whereas Ekans could only be found in Red on the same routes. Ditto for Gold and Silver, respectively, except now in Gold you could buy an Ekans at the Game Corner, and Sandshrew was offered for the same price in Silver. Yes, there are many differences between Sanshrew and Ekans, and in turn Sandslash and Arbok, and they aren't counterparts to the degree that, say, Zangoose and Seviper are. But unlike your over-the-top-ridiculous comparison between Chinchou and Wingull, it's made fairly obvious that Sandshrew and Ekans filled identical roles in opposing games, at least for the first two generations. And I think that's the kind of thing that makes good trivia, as opposed to silly things like sprite or stat trivia. --[[User:AndyPKMN|Andy<sup>P</sup><sub>K</sub><sup>M</sup><sub>N</sub>]] [[User talk:AndyPKMN|(talk)]] 15:04, 22 April 2011 (UTC)

== Comments ==
The comment you made [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Talk:Main_Page&curid=141849&diff=1503911&oldid=1503138&rcid=1605491 here] goes against our {{bp|Code of Conduct}}. Particularly under the section "Writing on talk pages in five words". I know it can be irritating when users ask about the trivia ban but it is are still legitimate questions and the users who ask them deserve to be spoken to with respect. Please mind what you say around other users. Thank you. --[[Tracey Sketchit|<span style="color:#33CC66;">'''ケンジ'''</span>]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#6600CC;">'''の'''</span>]][[User:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#FF00CC;">'''ガール'''</span>]] 11:02, 31 August 2011 (UTC)
== Language ==
You have been warned before of your behavior and language usage. If you have a disagreement with someone, you don't swear at them or tell them "You are every thing that is wrong with this wiki". Especially not admins. Maverick Nate works hard every day on the TCG.  When you come back, please tone it down. Thank you. --[[Tracey Sketchit|<span style="color:#33CC66;">'''ケンジ'''</span>]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#6600CC;">'''の'''</span>]][[User:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#FF00CC;">'''ガール'''</span>]] 08:29, 19 September 2011 (UTC)
== Attitude ==
Please don't fly off the handle on other users, like Nate. It is unacceptable how you "discussed" the situation with Nate, and I am particularly unhappy with how you referred him as "everything that is wrong with the wiki" and it wasn't even directed at me. Don't do it again or one week will be paltry in comparison. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">MAG</span>]][[Special:Contributions/MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#696969;">NE</span>]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">DETH</span>]]''' 00:59, 8 October 2011 (UTC)
