Pokémon Party

Hi. I want to add Olivia's Pokemon but there are two of them (revealed in the JP and ENG trailers) and the problem is, should I add it in a form of menu sprite? then Hala's Pokémon will be different and if I would've also change it, it will be weird and awkward because its only one Pokémon (so far). Or just add it with the official artwork? I just wanted to ask first before editing the article. —AwesomeDJPokemon 14:29, 14 October 2016 (UTC) :)

Capitalization

Can I ask why we capitalize the page in this way? In all the in-game dialogue, it's island kahuna, lowercase. If we choose to capitalize it based on the Trainer class, then the page should be titled Island Kahuna (Trainer class). Why are we using an awkward cross between the two?

Leaving a message in support of this move. Don't have anything more to say about it. --Felthry (F.K.A. Xolroc) (talk) 16:22, 21 January 2017 (UTC)
I know it has been a while, but the page is still up for debate. I don't recall, but was "Island Kahuna" capitalized in battles in SM? I noticed that it was during USUM so I don't know if that is confirmation of one way or not, just thought I would point it out. --HoennMaster 04:31, 8 January 2018 (UTC)
In battle it's the Trainer class, which is why it's capitalized (like all Trainer classes). Like I said above, it should be either "island kahuna", lowercase with no parenthetical, or "Island Kahuna (Trainer class)", capitalized with the parenthetical. Either is fine depending on the approach we want to take, but the current title is flat-out wrong. Pumpkinking0192 (talk) 04:49, 8 January 2018 (UTC)

Capitalization (cont.)

I agree with moving the page to "Island kahuna", as it was proposed back in 2016. The search engine is case-insensitive anyways. --Bfdifan2006something to say? · My work documentation 17:39, 13 February 2022 (UTC)

I personally would've preferred the upper case form without the Trainer class, but I guess that's because I've gotten so used to it. --FinnishPokéFan92 (talk) 10:43, 8 March 2022 (UTC)
