User talk:Trainer Micah/Archive 4

Archive
I have actually gone ahead and archived it as you requested and I moved the page to retain the history on that archive. I've also formatted everything like you usually have it.  Pokémon Gamer  * 04:10, December 12, 2017 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I saw that vandal. I was going to go out there in the edit history and block that Pug1320 user who wrote sexual content into the page though it appears Lordranged7 has already blocked them.  Pokémon Gamer  * 17:38, December 12, 2017 (UTC)
 * I'm SORRY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!


 * I've seen that other user on the Discussions and will be watching them. Additionally, a user named Parna Banerjee is underaged and I have reported them to Wikia Staff.  Pokémon Gamer  * 17:37, December 13, 2017 (UTC)

Thanks, Micah

And

Now, this is what i call idiotic activity! If someone is posting images, it isn't fixed that, he will post images simultaneously! If someone goes off for a sec... Titom's reply on that post, "Anyone is here?" I'm like Wth?! He/she isn't free 24*7 then, why calling someone? Someone will post, probably "later"? And alright, i won't make! And will take care whatever you say! 😊 Alain Sycamore (talk) 00:43, December 14, 2017 (UTC)

Just today, i think, i'd deleted more than 15 Ready made Amv posts, by a user! Ridiculous! And she says, "these are made by her"! I was like, " what she got after all that lying?

And Micah, you, too download Discord, i wanna have an important talk with you *privately*

And yeah, i, many times did see you making spelling wrong, i's "discord" not "discard" probably, your auto corrector! X3 Alain Sycamore (talk) 00:47, December 14, 2017 (UTC)

Good evening Sir,thank you for appreciating my capability. I just wanted to report to you about a user called Maaz Ghani. You are surely enlightened on this sir,as you saw hia reply yesterday. I was really offended. The way he wanted to pinch me was ridiculous. Thus I want my part of justice. Pls have a look on his posts.He has a strange rudeness in his comments. Dont mind,but out of a sudden, OT replies are increasing,mostly in the Images post. People are getting a chance to compliment and then spam there. Therefore,you should atleast stop posting,? Thirdly,Please block the user Vyap. Idiot as he is,he abused a lot and rather threatened Pandurang. Lastly,Do convey this to bhaiya and Admin.Shashank Singh 11:22, December 15, 2017 (UTC)professorshashank
 * I've seen that you have given a warning to that user. Good, thanks. Can you link me to this Vyap user? I've found this user who has been blocked before according to the block log but their only recent posts shown at the top are from the first week of November. And is this recent? A block is only needed if it's a current issue.  Pokémon Gamer  * 22:16, December 15, 2017 (UTC)

The second user was blocked for making trashy posts (and he did something like that before, too). The first, user, however, wasn't blocked. I only see he posted a link on your talk page, and that's about it, so I wouldn't consider that (illegal) spamming, so to speak.  Energy X  11:29, December 18, 2017 (UTC)

User blocked.  Energy X  10:55, December 23, 2017 (UTC)

The first two users are disabled, I don't need to block accounts that are disabled as they cannot be logged into anyway. If they were hacked, it's likely they were disabled for security reasons. But if the second account got disabled, it's likely that Wikia Staff found them sockpuppeting to avoid disablement (probably due to underage). And they can easily figure out if an account was hacked, as Bulbapedia staff have used CheckUser and found that the edit where another user claimed they got hacked was linked to the same IP and computer and the account was indeed safe. Their bio disappearing is something I found that happens if Wikia Staff disables an underaged account. See this user who disabled years ago and quit Wikia and they still have the biography.

So, if I have this correct: Pedro Samuel Leite Dias is certainly under 13 and Heart1234 got disabled for evading the disablement (which is something that I've seen before, I've found a user evading his disablement and got disabled again for underage)? And now he had a new account named Llama God Arceus to sockpuppet again? Were you the one who sent the link of him revealing his age? And I saw DexHolderHeart's thread admitting the new account (which is abusing multiple accounts if he was disabled due to underage).  Pokémon Gamer  * 19:08, December 23, 2017 (UTC)
 * I was asking as for the report above that comment about the sockpuppetry and the multiple accounts/personal information/underage thing, I'll get back to that second one after. So this is the account to be blocked?  Pokémon Gamer  * 22:53, December 23, 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks, I have gone ahead and blocked that user. They claim they were hacked, but I am not believing it; account disabling that is done by user choice (i.e., by the person logged into the account) takes a whole thirty days to complete. Obviously, the account was disabled by Wikia and Mira Laime even stepped in to explain that it was likely the case. Additionally, if they are disabled by Wikia for underage, their details are of course removed because Wikia is not allowed to store personal details of under 13 users, and the people saying otherwise don't really know how Wikia works . A Japanese user named Yard stopped using Wikia years ago but his profile details remain because at least he wasn't underaged (obviously, kanji and complex level conversation generally takes between 15 to master for Japanese people and up to 20 for kanji and somewhere well below 15 years for us; though I don't know any online Japanese users anywhere below those age ranges). They even somewhat imply it in their bio: The size of a 11 year old.
 * So even if people come to my page wanting to complain or question why I blocked the user (or pointlessly accuse me of abuse), I will nonetheless explain that the account was clearly disabled by Wikia due to being under 13 and mentioning that as apart of their personal details, and that there is a crystal clear explanation why (which most users will likely never get, just like how the same users suggest OI001 is the second season premiere despite being contradicted by every television channel worldwide that's ever aired the series and every company that has purchased it; as such licensees specifically purchase seasons anyway, and season does not always equal opening theme; even if that's sometimes or even often lately been the case). The foot just needed to be put down - that user was clearly abusing multiple accounts and even the staff of the whole network this website runs on has concurred with that; the claim to the contrary was wrong and the people defending it are also wrong. If someone really hacked his account and filled the disable forms, it would have taken 30 days to complete via email verification if they really want to reinstate it and the account wouldn't be accessible during that 30 days even if the account is not fully disabled yet - it did not take that long or anywhere longer; not even close; it only took a day or so with all his bio details removed for not understanding the terms of use, and I totally believe you because if was the other way around, it would've taken 30 days and likely wouldn't result in the bio being removed. And rule 10 specifically says sockpuppets will be banned (and Wikia doesn't consider anyone who is 13 after being disabled for underage to be a sockpuppet, however that user is still under 13 so having that user create multiple accounts whenever Wikia disables them every day or two is just annoying and it would be best dealt with giving them blocks every time they come back and then report to Wikia), so anyone opposing my action is just supporting socking and running on double standards. And you have specifically pointed out why the user needed to be blocked (which I doubt many here will understand [just like the seasons thing] but still).
 * So yes, thank you for reminding me and the user has indeed been blocked for evading global bans. (Likewise, if it was just a one-time underaged user; that would be sent straight to Wikia - I'm not blocking for the user being under 13, I blocked them because they were abusing multiple accounts as you said and nothing has to be debated). And yes, the account was disabled by Wikia who removed their details (which is standard for under 13 users), and the new account can be reported to Special:Contact/general as always.


 * Further, I'll look into that other case when I have the time.
 *  Pokémon Gamer  * 00:27, December 24, 2017 (UTC)
 * Okay, I'll look into maybe changing how the rule is worded maybe to make it clearer that excessively off-topic posts will not be tolerated here when we have a Discord chat to cover for that (a service which I have found in the last one or two years has been going mainstream at that).  Pokémon Gamer  * 01:39, December 24, 2017 (UTC)
 * Thanks, and I have also edited the relevant guideline to detail (and if the user's under 13, I won't block them and I only report them to Wikia but this case is just because the user comes back to the wiki even after being disabled under multiple different usernames to post the same type of annoying thing about "my account is disabled/someone screwed with my account/broke in" or whatever):
 * "Creating off-topic posts is illegal. It is also forbidden to chat about off-topic posts on other threads. For that purpose, use the Discord chat. https://discordapp.com/channels/358946088050491403/358946088050491404"

 * Obviously if it's talking about the wiki it's on topic and perfectly fine to mention.
 * What I'm referring to is things like that spam post saying "purchase something off PayPal" and what they were mentioning about that wasn't even Pokémon related or related to the wiki.

Yes I have noticed Ayaan's return. I've reported it to Wikia. (Arrgghh, I've had enough of those problematic sock accounts [and I'm not angry at you at all, in fact thanks for reporting that], and he came back after I was away writing a page on a Japanese wiki (and I've done some of the synopsis there, not written the full plot yet because I don't have enough time to do so tonight)) - Also, Merry Christmas!  Pokémon Gamer  * 07:22, December 25, 2017 (UTC)
 * You didn't bother me - that underaged user being on here did, and what I was only expressing that against the tons of nonsense-posting users and sockpuppets who keep showing up and that user also admitted they're the ones who kept removing images from pages claiming "copyright infringement", although it's very easy for me to report, so I'm fine with if you're reporting even if I'm already doing something. I've reported them to Wikia (I can multi-task when having multiple wikis in separate tabs).  Pokémon Gamer  * 11:45, December 25, 2017 (UTC)

 * Per the Wikia staff page and the emails, Sean M. is semanticdrifter. And Wikia staff does not accept screenshots of chat (which can be manipulated by inspect element which is why they're not accepted), nor a picture or voice of the user or behavior looking like the user's under 13. They need to have a link to a message where they said they were under 13 (or a link to a message on their user page, bio, talk page, discussions, etc. where they say they are the same person as a user who was disabled for being under 13). Redosign goes between good faith and bad faith - all I can say is that he just doesn't listen to warnings (and no it's not "name-calling" to call the sock account Atvpikachu made as a "sock", because he clearly admitted it's a sock anyway...just that some users oddly defend these socks that are showing up for no apparent reason whatsoever so they make me seem like a troll, even though they are simply just arguing against the findings of Wikia staff and you're like the only user here who understands what I'm talking about). Anyway, if there's a link where that user says specifically which age they are (or gives an under-13 age range), in any language, that can be sent to Wikia staff (I've actually handled one of these reports in Japanese, and Wikia staff has Japanese users so the English staff knew what I was saying).

 Pokémon Gamer  * 19:11, December 26, 2017 (UTC)
 * The images used on the blog look good.  Pokémon Gamer  * 19:35, December 26, 2017 (UTC)
 * The DexHolderHeart and Ayaan222 accounts have been disabled as I've reported them to Wikia. (They actually asked me for a post link for Ayaan222 where they said they are a sock and I didn't know if that post would be accepted as proof because they didn't say which username the account was, just that "I had to create another account" but yeah, that was accepted and the Ayaan222 account is disabled)  Pokémon Gamer  * 20:37, December 26, 2017 (UTC)

The status on the socks issue
Wikia has done a CheckUser check and found some details about the block-evading thing with Atvpikachu. CheckUser data has a data retention expiration and some accounts might not be able to be traced. However, Wikia staff found that Atvpikachu secretly created this account: Special:Contributions/AtvpikachuF2KEplayer which they have suggested to be blocked and I have done that. Among three recent accounts (that are used within months that can be traced back according to CheckUser data): that I have provided, there was only one IP in common last used in October.
 * http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/Unknownprowikipedia
 * Atvpikachu/Don't Stop The Whatever I Don't Remember [I only gave the latter username, and that fits one of the three recent ones that would fit within three months]
 * http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/Redosign

Any recent IP between those accounts past October have been somewhere random and is thus not within a single range that can be blocked. We'll just need to block any new evading account on sight and an IP block will only be necessary if it goes between tons and tons of accounts, and they suggest following up if it continues excessively if there may need to be an IP block. For now, we'll just need to block the user as he shows up with more and more accounts. If he makes something like a dozen within a single month or anything like that, we'll have to see about an IP block. However, for now, we should just keep blocking based on behavior and check the account creation log. And I believe they have a three-months retention policy, as does the default Wikimedia retention.

I was thinking of some rules for the Atlas post. There is a lot of confusion there. Firatly I recommend mods not to immedeately post another thread once a previous atlas post has been locked. Reason being that there is excessive polarization, which users being confined to atlas posts. This prevents new and interesting posts. Plus too many locked atlases would also look strange. Secondly, add a rule that a winner shall be chosen. The persin with most number of replies will be the winner. But if the game restarts from A, then it will be recounted from that point. Plus encourage roleplay posts. Another req, request staff to introduce Hindi.Shashank Singh 06:51, January 4, 2018 (UTC)professorshashank
 * I'll look into it. I also reported that other user who posted the porn images to Wikia (handled the request in Japanese), [subject] ポルノグラフィ (Pornography), [contents] "このwiki(http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/WillianX5000PokemonKlonoaChuggaconroy )には、「WillianX5000PokemonKlonoaChuggaconroy」という悪い利用者がアダルト画像をアップロードしました. アダルトコンテンツをアップロードするのが利用規約の違反として、だからWillianX5000PokemonKlonoaChuggaconroyさんのグローバルブロックの依頼としてメールです. この利用者の不適切な画像のアップロードについて調べて下さい. こちらは利用者の削除された投稿のリンク: http://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Special:DeletedContributions/WillianX5000PokemonKlonoaChuggaconroy よろしくお願いします.

 * And they responded "ThePokémonGamer様, FANDOMにおける規約違反を行ったユーザーの通報をいただきまして、誠にありがとうございます. 該当のユーザーの履歴を調べさせていただき、グローバルブロックを設定させていただきました. 今後ともよろしくお願いいたします.

 * (Meaning, I have checked out the user who performed a Terms of Use violation and I have received this report, so thank you very much. I have investigated this user's logs in question, and have placed a global block. Thanks for everything from here.)

 Pokémon Gamer  * 18:39, January 5, 2018 (UTC)

Password reset
I saw that and if the user was disabled for Terms of Use violations, action will be taken.

Otherwise, the best option is to recommend the password reset in the future. I remember that many years back, all one would have to do is just insert an email address into that box and Wikia would send them an email regardless of whether they were logged in without any verification -- that could be abused by anyone to send spam emails from another's behalf about resetting their password and usually there was a 24-hour wait to request another password reset though to prevent abuse, though it could be done on a daily basis without verification and now they require the user to be logged in and insert the old password and the new desired password (and repeat the new desired password).

If the person screwing with their account changed the password, I guess the only option will (assuming they didn't change the email) be to recommend they contact Wikia staff while logged out, which allows the user to fill in their username and email in that form while they are not logged in.

The final option I can suggest if the person got their account email changed is to contact Wikia with the other account (with the other account in question set with the email that the main original account used) and verify with the logs that the email address does indeed belong to them and they did indeed create the account with that email.

All in all, if none of that can be done, all I can say is they should just use the new account; if they broke the Terms of Use and got disabled previously, then they are abusing a second account, in which case I would recommend requesting them to provide a link to the previous account (if you can't find them through the search bar or the URL box by typing in their username).

Alain Sycamore (talk) 08:16, January 9, 2018 (UTC)
 * Yeah, Alain Sycamore is just stretching things out. And yes, I know that Trainer Marlin 2016 isn't Alain Sycamore's account. It's the first of a set of accounts created by another person. Likewise, he created the Alain Sycamore account to use a different username so I blocked the old account since a user cannot have two accounts at once.  Pokémon Gamer  * 04:55, January 10, 2018 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I agree there's tons of "fandomism" mess in the English-speaking fandom and it is way more unorganized, crowded, and more filled with fan-made crap and petty flame wars than the Japanese[-speaking] fandom. The Japanese fandom has like two wikis that are unpopular but good to visit as they are more organized, and all these anonymous messaging boards and "share your thoughts" type social sites like Twitter and everyone actually enjoying being apart of the fanbase and not so much drama and fan made nonsense (i.e., claiming that season 1 is all of Kanto, when officially season 1 is just 52 episodes of it with season 2 beginning with Princess VS Princess, and so on, because any company licensing the show does it this way and also whenever channels worldwide say they'll air "season X", this'll be according to the official count and not the fan-made one because that's how channels everywhere get it) being spread all over the internet.
 * If nothing drama-related ever actually goes on with users stretching things out (or posting nonsense all over the place) and for example having to contact multiple users to address issues relating to the standards procedures (such as blocking older accounts if they have a newer one), the English-speaking fandom wouldn't be as crowded and unorganized like you can see on Bulbapedia where forums users are banned if they say something that contradicts Bulbapedia. It's also all this type of censorship that has to go on (against users saying things that contradict false information on a publicly editable site) and tons of rule-breaking that needs to be covered up and dealt with routinely which is why I wish it would be as organized as I've seen the Japanese(-speaking) fandom be.
 *  Pokémon Gamer  * 17:58, January 10, 2018 (UTC)

The user has said that they wanted a new name, and a new account was made for that. I could permit that, unlike these people that make new accounts and say "I forgot my password", even if there is a password-recovery option they do not use.  Energy X  18:06, January 10, 2018 (UTC)
 * Which is exactly why I didn't block the new account, and blocked the old one instead. I'm fine with a user creating a new account to get a new username, but the old account must be blocked afterwards as users can only have one account. And the thing with the whole password reset option is that they now require you to be logged in and know what your old password is (they didn't do this before, previously you would enter your username and get sent a code to reset your password, similarly I also remember Wikia previously allowed people to remove any reply or comment from any thread even if it's not their own, now recently as of 2015 Wikia has a "moderator" group that users must be in to remove others' replies from a thread, so yes around that time things significantly changed with Wikia adding more restrictions in the way).

Just a message
Hey there,Micah! Control man! You shouldnt have made that post,but I have other important things to talk about. 1)Are battle posts to be made by mods only? Or can users make them? 2) I recommend a law to lock any post that has crossed a month or any post that is active for more than 2 or 3 months. If there is activity and positive response,let the post go, but strange peace,if seen, should be met with immedeate locking. 3)Thirdly, a personal thingy. Am i good enuff for being a moderator?Or could you suggest me how to become one? Next, as you apologized to Alain, take care Mike that everyone is special. Therefore one should not think of anyone like that. Anyways,happy that you are back! See you soon,friend!Shashank Singh 12:02, January 12, 2018 (UTC)professorshashank

Micah, i saw your message on Energy X's talk page. I'd say, i don't (we should not) allow him to go with that account. He already made five accounts. Question! Why is everything happening with him only? Nobody is facing the same problem. Also, he said, he did 'reboot' his phone! Why'd he face that problem then? His accounts: Legend trainer 02, Titom Roy 2017, Professor Sycamore!, Sasuke legend Uchiha and one more, i'm forgetting the username. Here what i'm guessing! We all know, that he renamed one of his account to 'Professor sycamore!', right? I guess, he liked that -anime- and wanted to change username. Knowing that he could not change his username again, he made an account and lied. Well, we all know how many times he did lie, it's one of them. Sasake Haise (talk) 02:10, March 7, 2018 (UTC)

Another thing
Hey, just wanted to let you know something. You know that Pokemon Answers Wiki you own? Well, MyBudhaKitty is posted "inapropriate" material. I put "" because, well, how do I put it. It could be considered by also not inapropriate. Lets just say shes posting pictures of the Pokemons "private spaces". I hope you get to this cause it bothers me.

Hey there!
I'm still having exams. Next one is on sixteenth March i.e Science. That's why, I ain't giving much time to talk pages. Also, being busy in studies and Discord, I forgot to make Mixed-Media post on fandom, thanks for making it. How're you? Sasake Haise!

A person can make a fake e-mail id and can change his name on internet. Do you really think he is Rohan? Don't you really know the guy sitting on internet named 'Rohan' could be a girl as well? Imagine, i made an account on fandom that is completely different from this one and used a girl name, what will you say? How will you catch me? (I said to imagine! I'm not going to do anything like that) So, i'd say, think again on anything. I'd say, agreeing him on that message was worthless unless you check by yourself. He's(Shashank) not someone who knows user's carefully. It's me, who's more active and know each and everyone's behaviour. Also, if we could track his location.

 * I was intentionally spelling it to the most common mispronunciation to be funny...  Pokémon Gamer  * 03:24, May 28, 2018 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I also check my messages every day in case there's vandalism if I need to block any users for that as there has been weeks ago that I've seen, or anything else although there might be times I'm not on here 24/7 since I'm working on the YouTube channel that's listed as my website link which is higher priority in terms of what I'd rather spend hours on. The style I use is a "one thing per video" format and I'm hardcore enough to do every single game along the main prominent ones in the series and ones I randomly come across... instead of those usual "skip around different games and do tl;dw inconsistently divided "let's play" parts", and I plan to do another channel for 8K 60FPS videos in the future (YouTube added 8K in 2015). I'm currently uploading Mega Man 3 and when I get to the Pokémon games (which is still several games away because of all the Mario and Donkey Kong games for the Game Boy/Color/Advance consoles I still need to upload), I'll do them in boss battle runs including the opening and credits and significant plot cutscenes as well as videos for captures of legendary/interacted-with Pokémon, and obviously all the Gym Leaders, Elite Four, Champion, and their rematches (including PWT in B2W2), and any interacted battles such as Gabby and Ty, the Winstrate Family, etc.. When I do Black 2 and White 2, I'll have separate videos labeled under "Memory Link Flashbacks" and "Pokéstar Studios" and list them that way because they're content that has nothing in the video that will be specific to one game. I'm unable to do Gens 6 and later as I still lack the 3DS capture board, however I do have Elgato Game Capture HD which means I can do games from consoles such as Nintendo 64/GameCube/Wii/Wii U/Switch (those I don't use emulators for because they usually lack an AVI recorder, lag too much, or are imperfect or not ideal for playing and recording those games).

I was asleep last night and was unable to do so. I'm uploading the SMB Lost Levels Paradyce hack by Insectduel on YouTube currently as well.  Pokémon Gamer  * 20:03, June 18, 2018 (UTC)


 * Finished uploading the game in its entirety. I think it should be common sense not to play certain region games on legal cartridges if you don't own the console for that region. Emulators generally play games of all regions and they don't have this issue. Similarly, you can export and import save files and as long as they're included in the same version pairing, the save files work. It's not recommended however because there are some flags in save files that are specific to one version of the game (for example, Black City and White Forest are particular to which version and that's set automatically when you begin a game, unless you can edit the save file such as in HxD and fix the checksums, some of the hex data is complicated however others are straightforward and for DS games in general [I've seen this with the Strawberry Shortcake games and the 2006 New Super Mario Bros. games, not just Pokémon], plain text strings such as your save file name are separated by dots [value 00] so my file name is usually "Alex" which is my real legal first name so it would say "A.l.e.x." in the decrypted text on the right, however box names are not separated this way -- if your box name is "BOX1", it'll say that at the beginning where it lists all the box names). When I get to Pokémon, I'll only be able to do gens 1-5 since I'll be using VisualBoyAdvance and Desmume as the emulators and I won't use Citra for the 3DS games because I question whether all of them are compatible at this moment (Sun and Moon are, though I'm not sure for the rest) and it doesn't have an AVI recorder. When I do the 3DS games, I'll also have to use cheats to access the event Pokémon, for gens 1-5 this is easy as the emulators have a "cheats" window which can be used to enter codes that provide me with everything needed to do all the legendary Pokémon videos. For the Pokémon games when I do them, I'll do literally every different version (such as considering Pokémon Diamond and Pokémon Pearl as different games with their own playlists and the same number of videos for each) and the videos will consist of boss battles [gym battles, elite four, champion, catching interactable and legendary Pokémon, gym leader/elite four/champion rematches, etc.] and cutscenes such as the opening and ending scenes.


 * With the 3DS games, I think it'll be best for me to purchase Merki's expensive capture board installation (which works for any region console and is based in Germany) and until then, skip to doing the next gen's Switch game releasing in 2019 as I have the Elgato Game Capture HD which I'll be using for N64/GCN/Wii/Wii U/Switch games.


 * I've also been following the announcements of Just Dance 2019, which is releasing October this year and I've been getting every new main lineup game of the Just Dance series since 2009 when it began and I've purchased the Japanese edition series games Just Dance Wii and Just Dance Wii 2 since I've owned a Japanese Wii console for years and the voltage for it is compatible in the US. I don't own Just Dance Wii U yet though one of the Isshu region ending themes (Mite Mite Kotchitchi) is on there. Just Dance 2019 will feature Havana according to its product page and E3 preview footage and it will be the solo version. It'll also feature that stupid meme song Dame Tu Cosita with most of the dance moves stolen from the alien music video (some had assumed that song wouldn't get on there because of its sexual themes and this being an E 10+ series; I wouldn't be surprised if Ubisoft was forced to mute the occasional moaning in that song before the game gets released / 64iOS, who created a fanmade dance and called out his prediction as correct at the top of his comments). The game will also feature Shaky Shaky, a song I've been listening to for months.

Hello there, Micah. I have noticed an influx in the amount of Pokémon GO friend code threads (posts) in the Discussions and I have been thinking about why not the Discussion Moderator create a single post for it to prevent spamming of friend codes? I mean mixed-media, atlas, off-topic posts are all an example of that.

Alright. Let's how you guys host these competitions. I am sure it will be fun and exciting. Also, I'm sorry to tell you that I won't be able to trade Rayquaza as I only have one of them. I hope you can find one soon.Silent Songbird (talk) 19:06, June 26, 2018 (UTC)
