[[File:Earth_Badge.png|thumb|right|だれだ?]]
What is the source for the design of the Earth Badge used on the page (to the right)? It doesn't look similar to any of the game, TCG, anime or manga depictions I can find on the wiki (or elsewhere), and the file categories aren't telling me anything. It's a common enough design if you search for the badge on sites like deviantart, but I can't for the life of me locate its source... [[a:User_talk:Greengiant|the uploader's]] talk page doesn't give any solid leads either. He mentioned Psypokes but after poking around the site today and on archive.org way back to 2006 (a bit after he uploaded the file) I couldn't find anything (perhaps he meant on the forums?). Is it some obscure Dream World artwork, or have we been propagating a fan design of this badge for over a decade? ._. - [[User:DanPMK|MK]] (<sup>[[User Talk:DanPMK|t]]</sup>/<sub>[[Special:contributions/DanPMK|c]]</sub>) 05:02, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

:I found it [http://imgur.com/SgbkEtF being used] officially, in ''[[Extreme Pokémon: The Guide for the Ultimate Fan]]''. The angle has been added by Bulbapedia (as you can see in the file history), but it is official artwork. There's no guarantee this is the origin, but it is a place that it was used (prior to Bulbapedia). --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 09:26, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

::Also, these images are used in [[Pokémon Project Studio]]. I've gone and replaced our low-res images with these higher quality images. (According to [[#Hoenn/Shin'ō Badges]], the old images were redrawn by a fan, but still adapted from official art from the [[Tracey West]] books.) --[[User:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#A70000">'''Snorlax'''</span>]][[User talk:SnorlaxMonster|<span style="color:#0000A7">'''Monster'''</span>]] 12:27, 12 February 2016 (UTC)

:::Fascinating! Thanks for the quick reply. Glad we'll be using a more clearly fair use and higher res version now, at least :D I wonder if it's appeared in any officil media post-2000, or in any Japanese media. - [[User:DanPMK|MK]] (<sup>[[User Talk:DanPMK|t]]</sup>/<sub>[[Special:contributions/DanPMK|c]]</sub>) 14:05, 12 February 2016 (UTC)
