If you try and put an unnicknamed Weedle on the GTS in Gen V it doesn't let you (I've tested this and it's true). I've heard this is because the name recognises "Weed" as an offensive word, however the Gen V GTS let me put a Turtwig named "SHIT" (transferred from Gen IV) up with no problems. Even though "SHIT" is a black listed nickname in BW (I've tested this too). Is it that Weedle can't be put up due to the name "Weed" being offensive, or is there some other reason? If it is because of "Weed", why was I allowed to put "SHIT" up? (It was for scientific purposes only and I took the Turtwig back from the GTS, so no 10 year old is gonna end up with it and get banned from pokémon by their parents) [[User:Jmvb|Jmvb]] 13:30, 14 April 2011 (UTC) | If you try and put an unnicknamed Weedle on the GTS in Gen V it doesn't let you (I've tested this and it's true).

:Perhaps there is another abnormality on that Weedle? Try breeding it and offering its baby. The nickname filter doesn't stop you from entering "weed" as a nickname. The GTS filter which caused similar problems for {{p|Cofagrigus}} was removed, so this shouldn't be an issue. --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 12:45, 21 June 2011 (UTC) | :Perhaps there is another abnormality on that Weedle?

::You say that but the Froslass problem wasn't fixed. | |||
==Normal Names== | |||
Can I just point out something which I think is worth the article noting? Due to the censoring nature, sometimes normal names can be blocked due to all or part of their name. (is it me or did Game Freak go OTT with this?) | |||
