:::::::This rule wasn't enforced much back in the day if at all, if I remember correctly. The problems that came from that loose mindset led to the current standard that moves must be spoken out to be confirmed. There must be some kind of barrier in place, because if not, people can just add whatever move they want. There have been plenty of instances where a Pokémon did a movement resembling a headbutt, doesn't mean it's actually Headbutt. And similar cases like that. In the end, Bulbapedia is still aiming to be as factual as possible. This can't be guaranteed if people can just go assume.

:::::::Having said that, I personally do believe it is sometimes enforced too strictly. There are cases where a move is unspoken but a good case can be made that it is a certain move. For example, when a move is visually so obviously a certain move but is still unspoken. However, even then '''it should still be discussed civilly on talk pages first''', as again, we can't have people just adding whatever they like based on assumption. Ps. I have not been able to check out SM034 yet so I won't comment on Marowak's moves this time. <span style="font-family:Arial Black"><span style="color:Red">☼ Blazing</span>[[User talk:Blazingfist|<span style="color:red">Fist ☼</span>]]</span> 00:31, 21 July 2017 (UTC)

::::::::I've {{DL|User talk:Force Fire/List of moves with unique animations|SM034 moves|talked about this subject}} with {{user|Force Fire}}, and while he hadn't seen this episode by the time I last heard, he seems to agree, based on my description, that at least Flame Wheel can be confirmed by its unique animation. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 06:25, 21 July 2017 (UTC)
