Talk:Hoothoot (Pokémon): Difference between revisions

Line 64: Line 64:
Of course Jynx was retconned, but that was over public outcry. No-one ever made clear any views of Hoothoot being offensive for only having one foot, and very few people would care (or even notice) if the switch would be made, had it come to that. So... what exactly is it that you're trying to have come into effect here? --[[User:Oz|<span style="color:#800000">'''O'''</span>]][[User talk:Oz|<span style="color:#C8A2C8">'''z'''</span>]] 10:53, 7 January 2010 (UTC)

::::::About the dex entry, I can confirm that there is no mistranslation there. It says the same thing in Japanese that it does in English... too bad we don't have the original Japanese interview :/ I would still opt to say though that the translated interview is not a mistranslation either, it's just being taken too literally. I've seen that happen so many times it's not even funny. ([[User:Yaminokame|Yaminokame]] 11:05, 7 January 2010 (UTC))

:::::::@Oz: You completely missed my point. And what I'm trying to get into effect is exactly what I said before: some mention of the discrepancy.
:::::::@Yaminokame: I seriously doubt it was a mistranslation... Who says it was a Japanese-to-English interview anyways? [[User:Redstar|Redstar]] 11:32, 7 January 2010 (UTC)
