::I don't entirely know if it's worth trying to distinguish Diglett and Alolan Diglett either and saying there's "three", since that would imply there were Pokemon with something like 8, 9, and 10 base HP, rather than two of them being tied. Jumping through hoops just to note "Alolan" Diglett isn't worth it IMO. [[User:Tiddlywinks|Tiddlywinks]] ([[User talk:Tiddlywinks|talk]]) 22:53, 8 March 2017 (UTC)

:::For what it's worth, we've always consistently considered different forms of a Pokémon to be just one Pokémon, and including regional variants on their normal counterparts' species pages sets the precedent that they are just forms and not anything more. So it wouldn't just be "jumping through hoops" to distinguish Diglett from Alolan Diglett; it would outright be false to consider them two separate Pokémon.

== Suckle's real world equivilent ==
Currently the article suggests that Shuckle is a turtle I don't think that is correct. I think it would be more correct to say that it has similarities with both scale insects and barnacles. I edited the main page to add this information but I would also like to remove the mention of it being a turtle since I don't think that is right. However I am new to editing Bulbapedia so I didn't want to make a larger change without community ascent. Are there any objections to me removing the world turtle from the shuckle biology section?
