Viz Media update
Just to let you know VIZ Media has begun re-releasing the regular Pokemon Adventures volumes in digital format. They are releasing them by saga between July-December 2018. Here is the original source. Also the release dates for the digital versions and the eISBN codes can be confirmed through VIZ's website via the individual pages such as this sample. Also while Vol. 1-7 is out now, the digital release for Vol. 8-14 is confirmed for this upcoming Tuesday. -Adv193 (talk) 16:27, August 24, 2018 (UTC)


 * Thank you and just so you know the release date information can be sourced and the eISBN codes can be sourced through Viz's website from their individual pages. Also for the news I am only going to refer to other places that sell the digital copies as associates such as ComiXology or Amazon Kindle. Once the R/S digital releases come it, it will be time to check the site again for more release dates, especially since two sagas (FR/LG and Emerald) will be coming out in October and not determined yet if it will be on the same date. -Adv193 (talk) 17:38, September 1, 2018 (UTC)

What are you even referring to here? As for how I watch the episodes, I use my own legal method of watching the channel that the series is aired on, and I don't have knowledge of any Twitch streams under my purview anyway since I don't use Twitch or any online website stream to catch the new episodes as they air (although I know someone on here who I think does do that), and since the online streams on these video streaming websites are fanmade and illegal, they are minutes off from what's currently being broadcast (they're generally 3 minutes behind from my experience) and have been down in two instances when new episodes were airing (in early XY&Z). For example, an episode for the next 2 weeks airs at 6:55 PM JST on Thursdays - those online streams start at 6:58 PM as such. It wouldn't be useful anyway if you're watching it from Japanese television (TV Tokyo and its affiliates within the regions of the country [e.g., TV Osaka, TV Aichi, etc.] is among the basic set of channels) which is the actual intended way you're supposed to watch it anyway. Anyone else, as far as the law and official methods of watching the series goes, is supposed to wait for the local dub for their language to air in their own country.

(As you might not already be aware, this whole theme of western fans of the series watching the Japanese version began around 2002 during late Jouto when torrents began circulating online of the original versions and it had soon become common knowledge how to find them and they decided to just do it that way by illegally downloading Japanese episodes of the show from the other side of the world instead of waiting a whole year for the US or their own country to air it.)

It's true however that I am active on monitoring Japanese websites for news (which the general layman side of the English speaking fandom is full of users ), and the extreme minority of those in the English speaking fandom who do know Japanese know where to find this stuff. (On another topic, that "Serena comes back to Alola" rumor found online from a long time ago if you still remember that, is from a Spanish troll report on a blog post somewhere that was written before the cast of the series was announced and the earliest traces I've been able to dig up of it are from August 2016. Of course it's just fanmade nonsense, or else the writers would've hinted that it was going to happen somehow.)

Anyway, I know of only one user on Twitter and a few places elsewhere who knows how to stay up to date with the 2ch threads and to be honest, who doesn't know Japanese and openly admits to using Google Translate and noticeably uses literalist translations (he's the source of Bulbapedia's factually and grammatically nonsensical translation of XY098's title, which entirely misunderstood the meaning of "yume [w]o miru") so anything he says regarding what the news reports in Japanese should be taken with a grain of salt to be honest. Machine translators, like Google Translate which that Twitter user goes by, produce low quality results and are highly likely to be wrong to some degree most of the time, especially when there's puns or spelling corruptions [like the "tough fashionable old guy" fashion style referenced in some title of an episode aired earlier this year] used in the titles or when it translates Japanese language text written by native Japanese users online because they use a lot of slang netspeak sentence patterns, native level sentences, and when there's occasional spelling mistakes. Those like me with dual language proficiency catch that kind of stuff when translating almost all of the time, whereas computerized translators such as Google Translate almost always screw up with that kind of thing. (And of course, posts of Google Translated texts on the wiki's Discussions by users who don't know Japanese, and any misinformation that results from it, as far as I'm concerned, counts as a nonsense post and should be deleted as such whenever found, as it usually leads to tons of otherwise unnecessary and annoyingly stressful corrections by those who actually did understand the dialogue and know what the Japanese text or spoken dialogue actually says, in addition to endless corrections of the kind of misleading guesswork that results from it)

tl;dr I don't use a Twitch stream or anything streamed on the web for any of the new episodes I watch, so I can only recommend users who do not know of a way to watch the new episodes to have the interest to seek their own way of doing it or wait for their own country to air it (such as to have a Japanese television set with the basic channels or to feel lucky if they actually live in Japan themselves). We don't need to link to a third party illegal stream of it and make an exception to the rule just to cater to the fact that the vast majority of the users on here do not know of a legal way to watch TV Tokyo. However, it would be notable if it was an official live stream (XY001 I remember was screened early in advance on a livestream on niconico video from an official website according to the Japanese wiki and they do cite a reliable source)  Pokémon Gamer  * 22:26, September 1, 2018 (UTC)

It's this one. And it's the English language version of the series, not the original.

I'm investing more of my time in producing 8K quality, 60-frames-per-second YouTube videos (4320p) and monitoring 2chan (2ch.net) for news regarding the original version which I know how to find (and I've never had any unawareness of where to find that type of news, unlike most users on this wiki like I've said before), so these days I spend little time finding information from anything relating to the English speaking fandom. 2chan users didn't report this because they focus on the original episodes without caring much about what's happening relating to the series in foreign western countries.  Pokémon Gamer  * 20:39, September 2, 2018 (UTC)
 * And it appears that Lordranged7 already posted the link.
 * Anyway, the title for the September 13th episode isn't revealed yet. I can see why this is the case if they're intentionally trying to avoid spoiling it, on Thursday at 12 AM JST a new cast list is posted on the TV Tokyo timetable website which may end up giving the title. Episodes without a known title, in addition (regardless of whether they have an air date and summary), are not notable to have an article of at this moment.
 *  Pokémon Gamer  * 20:47, September 2, 2018 (UTC)
 * The only reason why I haven't is because I avoid using torrents whenever possible these days (which have a higher risk of being traced and caught than most of you seem to think). Hulu introduced a DRM a long time ago so any screenshot from its video player shows as a black picture. The person I've been account sharing with on Watch Disney XD has also downgraded their TV subscription which would mean I can't access Pokemon content on there. Netflix Japan has episodes, however they remove older episodes of the series and it takes a long time to buffer for it to display high quality. I've been longing about getting Amazon Prime Japan, though I already have the American Amazon Prime (and I would need to use my gift card money on Instant Video episodes if I wanted to do that, which I'm not willing to waste just for this purpose) and I would have to manage costs. That's why I've been resorting to monitoring Japanese sources for news on the series. (or working on YouTube gameplay videos, which are much more effortful and time consuming than screenshotting episodes and I actually get paid for it if I partner with an MCN in the future...especially since I upload in 8K resolution and am focusing primarily on uploading Rock Man/Mega Man games in preparation for MM11's release on the Switch, which I can record with Elgato Game Capture HD, my capture card I use for modern home console games that don't have good emulators yet, which means I could do gen 8 though I'm unable to do gens 6 or 7 because I don't have a capture card).


 * The best way to get pics for those episodes, honestly, is to go to Amazon Prime co.jp, register for a subscription fee, go to their Pocket Monsters sections for HD episodes, and run it in fullscreen. Their HD quality is the best and they don't have any network logos, any on-screen text, nor do they remove segments that were removed in the first airings (except for the jikai otanoshimini [see you next time] five second clip tags that are shown on rerun broadcasts and Hulu.co.jp; most torrents of the series are based on the first airings anyway, the SM ones seem to be done by a guy who does logo removal). Prime is paid, but that's expected since it's a legal source and as far as legality goes, if anyone wants to watch it on demand, if they don't pay for a licensed VOD service or have the episodes taped or something, they shouldn't even be allowed to watch the episodes of the Japanese series via playback methods in the first place anyway as far as it is legally speaking. As far as movies and Planetarium specials go, the only way to watch their live screenings (other than waiting for foreign dubbed versions of the movies, or the movie reruns on TV Tokyo) is the painstakingly obvious "move to Japan" solution neither you or anyone else is willing to go through the complications of, though it's something I'd probably do someday (the easiest working visa is English teacher, however I doubt you'd be able to easily find that job hypothetically if I were you, since many of them do require being a native English speaker, but the "me wanting to live in Japan someday" part is rather a story for another time.)


 * As far as those segments go, the 30 second next episode preview (in western Pokémon YouTubing jargon, the "first preview") is an episode segment in Japanese animated cartoons including this one rather than a one time deal shown on the first broadcasts only, they are just uploaded and then advertised on the official YouTube channels because it contains tons of extra footage from the episode that isn't shown before. Same goes for any other OLM-animated broadcast-on-TV-Tokyo type animated show. The only versions that don't show the previews are Netflix and original airings in the rare case when there is a movie promotion. Amazon Prime puts up new episodes the day after the one after it airs (possibly because an episode shown in the next episode preview segment could end up getting postponed and the Amazon Prime versions show the Hiun City gym episode preview after the Fushide episode instead of the Rocket/Plasma part 1 episode preview, and they show the Shoyo Gym episode preview in XY for XY023's preview because the preview was retroactively changed for future releases to show the episode that actually followed in the long run.


 * (For the planetarium specials and movie screenings, the official companies who decide this stuff are simply concerned about broadcasting them for an audience, not about catering to fansites who are in desperate personal desire of a source for high quality images for a wiki or whatever, which actually works counter to this wiki wants. Oh well, I guess there will never be a way to get gallery images for planetarium eps then unless they officially re-release them or someone could get them leaked in the form of a playable video media file....)

 * Though I will note that the unsubbed raws are available on torrent sites. They're listed along the lines of Pocket Monsters Sun & Moon [number] and Kyurem147 uses those. I do use print-screen as well and save in Paint and I also photoshop them to sharpen them and apply contrast effects before uploading to make sure they look clearer. If they're too dark or too bright in the contrasting, I try to change the level of saturation on them slightly though I prefer accuracy and clearness of the image over cosmetically enhancing them so I only raise the sharpness and contrast slightly.
 * I did joke on 4chan as anonymous however that they've been inactive since March because Adamant is "too busy shipping Ash/Serena" (the post uses words along a particular topic that are actually unsuitable/NSFW for young children in terms of the language I used in the post however, since 4chan is only to be contributed to by those 18 and older anyway so I can't mention the specifics of what I posted here, though you never see me swearing uncensored outside of 4chan and occasionally on social media websites and I generally limit swearing when using it in places where it's allowed, e.g. the Bulbapedia forums site surprisingly (Serebii forum rules allow limited swearing as long as it's not the type of swearing that's censored by their cussing filter)).

Chain breeding
As I've been fixing the Pokémon move pages, I noticed that chain breeding was present on the pages (see Brave Bird as an example), but is missing on the actual templates. I just wanted to make sure if that's something that needs to be included or if I can just ignore that. 21:18, September 6, 2018 (UTC)
 * No need for apologies. As long as I get a reply, I'm happy. Also, I don't know if you understood my question (reading over it again, I wasn't specific enough). As an example, on Brave Bird, there is the code  * indicates a Pokémon that can only learn the move through chain breeding  , whereas on the movebreedlistend/1 (and subsequent end templates), that is not present. I was wondering if we had to indicate a Pokemon can only learn through chain breeding and add that to the current template, or if we could just forego that.  23:38, September 8, 2018 (UTC)
 * Alright, just wanted to make sure before I made that change. Thank you Energy! 18:28, September 9, 2018 (UTC)

It appears as though the reason why they became inactive in March is because of Adamant (someone I know who is also able to translate and is someone on their fansubbing group) has had a sickness for months and is pretty much recovered to the point where he can continue.

I could possibly go through those and try to get images if I remember tomorrow or something though I'll be in New York over the weekend and it's not my primary incentive because of the impending release of Mega Man 11 which releases October 4th (the 2nd in North America) and the fact that I want to get 8K videos of the games up to MM10 completed hopefully by then to prepare to bring out my Nintendo Switch and start making videos for MM11 when it releases. Just Dance 2019 also releases on October 23rd however I do that in my free time and it's not like something I plan on doing on YT when it releases so I won't be busy with that -- believe it or not, that game is the only upcoming Wii game at this moment to release and yes, they're still releasing those games for the original Wii even though it's 2018 and not 2009 when it would make sense for them to release exclusively for the Wii - I've been getting every new North America/Europe series main game of that franchise every year since it all began in November of 2009.  Pokémon Gamer  * 04:08, September 11, 2018 (UTC)
 * Got a good shot of SM085 though turns out I happened to be occupied with Mega Man 9, uploading of which will be more of a rush than anything to get it and MM10 done by MM11's release (which is obviously the more important thing to do for me at this moment).

Pokémon anime episodes, movies, and specials to be digitally restored in full 4K Ultra HD.
You know something? I was wondering if there were any plans for Viz Media or Manga Entertainment UK for a complete anime series of Pokémon TV episodes, movies, and specials to be made into 4K Ultra HD.

When the source is something like this, it's generally fake and the Japanese name and cry audio are also fake as well - I've searched every official and fanmade Japanese source that I am aware of, and no one is even mentioning it. The cry is not even very well done either, just sounds like a dude exclaiming "aaaaaaaaaahhhhhhhhhhh!" in ecstasy for half a second or something - yeah, don't even feel like getting further into that either.

 *    And as i look over Paul the dragon trainers discussion profile Redmaster 3011 is right he has only been contributing 2 months outta of us via Annabeth and Percy, Artharv Methra, Billvee, You, Gary Oakkk, Me, ThePokemonGamer, and as you can see i thought for sure we had like 8 discussion moderators actively so yeah i'm questioning in if Paul the dragon trainer remains gone as you can see my message to him can we demote him and premote Redmaster 3011? as you can see i know they both know via:


 * 1 Rules and requirements 


 * 2 Paul the dragon trainer has been active two months while Redmaster 3011 has more then him so, and it's kinda reason why i want the swap to actually happen.. 


 * 3 And as i said to Paul the dragon trainer if he remains inactive til February then i recommend him a replacement he can apply for something else can't he? 


 * And if so and if i can apply him for something else i'm sure he'd do great as a administrator for discussion? 


 * Reason: Is they too have a somewhat similar ideal in discussion if he we're to apply for that but so you know on that and if he remains inactive til February then i recommend him a replacement alright? 


 * But so you know on that and i want to see what Redmaster 3011 can/will do alright but so you know if you said we have enough moderators i question why are we doing Paul the dragon trainer's work? Why is he not active and so on? You know and if it we're me i'd swap the two because it's been 7 months and i feel like why you know? especially if we're all doing our own thing everyday inactively you  know so yeah it kinda gets me that feeling in questioning like why am i hitting myself and so on not saying i am... 


 *  Why is he not active why am i doing his work why is he not attending discussion so you know on that as i question him myself so yeah.


 * I'll say i've returned from hiatus and wanted to chat and gave Paul the dragon trainers link and thought we'd discuss it on my talk and your talk page as we come up with a agreement maybe even talk with the others too so Redmaster 3011 and the moderators can attend discussion and we can all agree to Redmaster 3011 on being a discussion moderator for a permanent ideal if he said he'll remain active more than Paul then maybe he is has hit something on me outta what i noticed so yeah the question is what do you think? In approval of course. And you may want to check my talk page as well as his so you'll get an ideal alright?.


 * So you know as such as i'm back from hiatus and am returning to discussion for afew days sense i have afew things to do this weekend so you know on it. The link is below and yeah i'm back so i feel great knowing i got over my emotions and feelings from my uncles passing so yeah if needed i'll be around...Trainer Micah (talk) 06:57, October 16, 2018 (UTC)

Report.
There is a complaint against https://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/User:RedMaster_3011?useskin=oasis telling every user to check and read the discussions guidelines, where he, himself is not familiar with many of the rules. Forcing my fellow moderator Gary Oakkk to read his talk page. I admit these reasons are pointless, but at a point, the points are annoying, too. I can, with peace handle such users. But can't handle the noises they make by stretching the argument.

About whatever has been said above, the user https://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/User:RedMaster_3011?useskin=oasis is not at all suitable for the rights. I don't know what came in the mind of Micah and chose him for the moderation. But please. Choose them on the basis of contributions they perform, not only towards edits but towards wiki discussions too. If you get a free time, please look at the user's replies and posts. That's my humble request to you. As of yet, I was ignoring the whole matter. But before it gets serious, I'd want to put my views against it.

If a user reaches 1,500 replies and has been active from like 4 months, he she can nominate himself for discussions moderator, right? With that fact, there are a lot of users daily active on discussions and has crossed like 6,000 replies.

More of the things, I'll let you know on discord. Thanks. Atharv Mehra! (talk) 10:49, October 17, 2018 (UTC)

Fantasizing my previous message
Hello Energy x sir, Under my previous message i sent you regarding Paul the dragon trainer and RedMaster 3011 i just wanted to let you know i only fantasized my message regarding RedMaster 3011 and Paul the dragon trainers demotion so you know as such.


 * I did however warn the user Oddish speaks of  above ^ But so you know as such i believe in what i believed in so i warned RedMaster 3011 about asking me on becoming discussion moderator so you know he knew we had alot so sometimes i fantasized up those messages so you know and yeah it was a prank hook line and sinker i fail for it,


 *  So yeah glad i got him back with a warning. So if you need something let me know i may do it tonight alright so you know as such thought i'd message you in regards. And hope you have a great day sir.

''I see so you don't remember Shashank making this then? it was back in January 31st this year so it's in link in the forums watercooler:''

[//pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Discussion_Moderators https://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Forum:Discussion_Moderators]

  I remember him making something so i didn't recall these we're the actual requirement's a user needed but as you said i didn't/don't remember stating anything about requirements i didn't/don't know we had that/any til i looked around at everything so the question is are these the requirements needed for a user in link above?

''  Or are these made up by Shashank just to pull my leg? So you know as such. ''

I have to go inactive because i am on schedule so times kinda narrowing so i will chat tomorrow when i am on alright so you know as such Energy x sir i don't recall these til i looked around/through things so you as such do you recall these i wonder anyway i got to sleep so i am off good night and chat tomorrow when i am on alright...-Trainer Micah (talk) 23:48, October 17, 2018 (UTC) 




 * Also i forgot to add last night alrighty and yes i knew we had enough discussion moderators as it is so yes.


 * And in the old off topic post you dug up do you remember/recall the reason why exactly we postponed off topic post say stop making them before Artharv Methra and Gary Oakkk an so on become a discussion moderator's?


 * Well you remember Zyannn aka Jet user right whois haven't been seen sense? "Well i cought Billvee and Artharv Methra! cought replying each other" and are bringing the issue up again and to be fair enough as administrator of Pokemon neighboring the community wikis if they continue chatting/mentioning it from yesterday.


 * I request a message from you to see if i may postpone off topic post again if alright? 


 * It's in case they don't stop the issue mentioned from before if you recall/remember it ​​was ​via drama unfolding i brought up in message, fighting occurring, and annoyance the WWE list he made and breaking the guideline rules so you know and yes i recall/remember it don't you via him going against us four?


 * So you know and yes just a message i'm wanting to "hence the warning to them right now" If they don't stop sense Jet was going against us as in You, Me, Bill, and Annabeth and Percy at the time​​ i want to see if i may/can postpone off topic post "again"? If they we're to continue in replying each other?


 * Reason you know and two if they don't stop i ask if they continue i recommend a small kick ban for three day as it's unmoderator like to even mention all that chaos that happened sometime ago via March 14th, 2017 quite sometime ago yes that was a bad inappropriate behavior and, etc memory and was the reason why you demoted Zyannn aka Jet and kick banned him so yeah there mentioning his WWE list it's in March 14th 2017 post is old so glad we still have it around so you know and see it for yourself alright check Billvee's discussion profile under 7h's ago should show a picture of somesort in replies so yeah.


 * I'll give you a link tomorrow or you can check his replies alright so you know i am off chat tomorrow night and good night sir...-Trainer Micah (talk) 03:34, October 19, 2018 (UTC)

Pokémon GO Nominated in Google Play People's Choice Awards
Hi Energy X, long time no see, hope you've been doing well!

I wanted to let you know that Pokémon GO is a nominee for Google Play’s Fan Favorite Game of 2018! This award puts the power in the communities’ hands, allowing fans like you and your community members to vote for and support their favorite game. The voting for the Fan Favorite Game takes place between November 12 and November 26.

We're partnering with Google Play this year to help get out the vote, which is why we're reaching out to you. We want to help you make sure Pokemon GO has a chance of taking home the prize, we were interested in spreading the word of the voting once things kick off, here were a few ideas we had.


 * A discussion post on your community on November 12 announcing that voting is live.
 * A blog post on the same day announcing the same.
 * A small image asset in the right rail on desktop that will announce the game as a nominee and take fans to the voting page. (For an example of how that asset will look in terms of size and location, check out the Buy Now asset on the right side of [//pathfinderkingmaker.wikia.com/wiki/Pathfinder_Kingmaker_Wiki https://pathfinderkingmaker.wikia.com/wiki/Pathfinder_Kingmaker_Wiki].)
 * A "smart" banner that will display for wiki viewers on mobile (similar to the smart banner that currently displays on mobile pages for the FANDOM app).

We're also happy to help support getting out the vote for your game in any other way you'd like -- just let us know how we can help. I've already reached out to the Pokemon GO specific wiki but having any outreach here would certainly help chip in! Let me know which of these ideas you fancy.,

Let me know if you have any questions or concerns, I'll try to jump in and assist here once Let's Go Pikachu/Eevee comes out!

 * Hey Energy X, last stop in for me in relation to this!


 * With the Google Play's Fan Favorite game awards still underway, and we would love to help promote Pokemon GO success on your wiki (It's currently in second place behind PUBG Mobile!) Would you like some some assets to promote the game? We would be happy to create your suggestions! Would you like to host a poll or giveaway? We would love to provide you with Google Play gift cards to give! We also have created a compilation image of the nominees if you would like to retweet/share on your wiki's social channels: Twitter Facebook! Let us know if you have any other requests and we will try to assist.

Bot question
Hello Energy X sir, I have a question

''How did you make this? [//pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/Energy_0 https://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Special:Contributions/Energy_0]?''

Reason i ask is becouse i may make one for myself as a moderator whois thinking about making a bot.

And as you know i thought i make one this year say for my birthday to help with editoring and rollbacking in case some user or users do make reather mistakes or error or whatever in editoring.

''But so you know i thought i'd ask about it and "If" i were to make one can you make it as a bot muskhead? or musthead? or whatever you call them''

So you know as such thought i'd ask and make one for here in/on the fandom or discussion if needed to clean any spams or whatever that needs to be deleted or undone or rollbacked if you can let me know and share your thoughts okay?

So you know as such have a nice day i know you have alot of work and i'm interested into making one sometime soon okay so you know and chat later..-Trainer Micah (talk) 21:44, November 2, 2018 (UTC)

I got your message and i see i'll contact the staff to see if they can make a bot out of the account i created called Trainer Mike Bot so you know as such quite catchy.

So yeah after i see i just downloaded the link you gave so hopefully it work's if not i'll retry it so you know can't wait to have my own bot...-Trainer Micah (talk) 23:33, November 2, 2018 (UTC)

Also is it okay if i have premission form you to make a bot? it's before i do all of this and as you know thought i'd ask for premission before doing such a thing..Trainer Micah (talk) 23:41, November 2, 2018 (UTC)


 * Alright everything is completed now all i need to do is wait for a response within two or three days hopefully it gets improved and hoping i get my own bot soon...-Trainer Micah (talk) 01:05, November 3, 2018 (UTC)   

Permission for my Bot
Hi Energy X, It's Trainer Micah i was wondering if i can have Consent from you into making this a bot here's my bot's link...Trainer Mike (talk) 19:20, November 3, 2018 (UTC) 


 * As you know this is my bot whois will be helping out here in the wikia helping out cleaning the community and the staff are asking me as well. So can i have consent from you into making a bot out of  that? 


 * And i have download the Autowikiabrowser i'll keep reading that incase i have to download anything else.


 * And so you know as such i'm ready after that and i can't wait to do abit of bots work to helping you all out. So you know as such i await your message thanks.. Trainer Micah 
 * I see good to know thank you for letting me know in message i'm surprised at how fast that actually went so yes i'm amazed at it.

Infobox templates
Hello! I’m Ursuul from Vanguard, & I was told you were the best person to talk to about template practices here. Vanguard isn’t here about converting Infoboxes right now as far as I know, but there is a bit of an unideal practice occurring that we’d like to work with you to resolve. You can see examples of this with Template:Rotom, which is basically just a tabbed configuration of Template:PokéBox that is transcluded in the Rotom article. Ideally, Template:Rotom need not exist at all; you could simply  that entire template’s contents into the Rotom article directly, & have the code simply reside within the article itself. Using the current method is erroneously flagging the Pokémon Wiki for portability attention & cleanup that it does not, currently, need, as well as not being ideal as a practice generally, because this hides away the content from prospective editors. This practice has been used, from what I can tell, throughout the Wiki as well. It’s even in the case on Blaziken & on many other Pokémon articles; mostly articles beginning with A & B at a glance, but also on a seemingly random assortment of other articles. Is there a particular reason why this practice has become widespread, & might we work together to move back to a more ideal method of template usage? If you’d like you can contact me on Discord as Ursuul#1776, or I can join your Wiki’s own Discord if that’d be preferable (I would’ve joined already, except that Template:Welcome does not have an actual invite link, & I couldn’t find one). Otherwise, I’m happy to communicate via talk page. Thanks in advance!


 * No, it isn’t related to template type. Reclassifying those templates as something like Design might make some of them vanish from Special:Insights/nonportableinfoboxes, but this has less to do with the portability of the Infoboxes as the practice of having single-use templates, in general, & so reclassification wouldn’t make the problem go away. It’s also simply a bad practice for your editors, as you noted.


 * That is more functional automation than portability, & though I know parser functions well & would like to help you, this project is already looking pretty scary:


 * Even that much will only cover two generations. Inserted in the parameter as  the result is this: I, II  For each new generation you wanted this automated parameter to be able to handle, you’d have to nest that function again, & again, & again. The end result (accounting for all seven generations) would be pretty horrid, & though it might work, I cannot advise against it enough. There may be another, more efficient method  of automating that parameter via wikitext which I don’t know about (I tried #replace but that failed) or perhaps a method of accomplishing it with Lua, & if you’d like I’d be more than happy to ask around for such an alternative method, but even with Lua templating I’m fairly certain you’d have to account for each individual phrase for replacement; not very efficient. I’d recommend either simply writing out the full links in the parameter, to be maintained across the site with bots, or simply keep using the method you already have. However you want to proceed, I’ll be happy to assist however I can. If you need assistance taking care of the single-use templates also, then that too can be provided (bots, etc). Just say the word.


 * You are in luck! My patron showed me how to use the Arrays Extension to pull off what you want, without having to worry about 800 lines of nested parser functions. See User:Ursuul/Sandbox, which now uses the new functionality (difference from original), & check this diff to see how the template would work. The output is the same, but now in the article’s code you can use  just like you asked.

Japanese Translations
So, I was editing some of the etymology for the Pokémon in their Japanese names, and I noticed that most of the wikia's translations are completely wrong inside the PokéBoxes. For instance, Serebyi is not the Japanese name of Celebi, Celebi is the same in both English and Japanese. Most of the translated names feel like someone just heard the name with an accent and wrote down what they thought they heard. Mind if I change them? I asked you first because the PokéBoxes are REALLY sensitive information for a page and I wanted to know if I can edit them. Anyway, reply when you can and Have A Nice Day!

I beg your pardon
That page thing between Green (game) and Leaf (game), that was a different story from what I saw, and inserting blanks part is not my fault I had seen other pages in this wiki that hade done the same thing before me. I assumed that was done in the hopes that someone in the future would fill in the details in case others forget things like appearances, personalities, etc. an optional thought one might say.

Stat section glitch
Hey, Energy. I went on the Zygarde and Rayquaza page and clicked stats on the TOC, but there seems to be some glitch. I'm guessing that it could be on the actual template, which should be a simple matter of reverting and then protecting the page if it was defaced. Zane T 69 (talk) 23:24, December 29, 2018 (UTC)

Rendering issues
Hi, I am having the same issues as I did with Mew.. Rendering issues when having too many movesets on the page.. I had to undo my edit but here is what it looked like before I undid it - https://pokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Deoxys?oldid=1100988

Any ideas on a potential solution? (Sending this msg both Energy X and Lordranged7)

 * I am not familiar with the tag - I tried using it and checking preview and by the looks of it, it didn't do anything to fix the node-count limit issue.. Do you know how to use it? Could we setup a sandbox page I am a bit of a visual learner


 * Saiftey (talk) 12:09, January 17, 2019 (UTC)

Gonna interject with a couple of ideas we could test. Aside from coding stuff (which I'm clueless about) there are a couple of options we could try. As the main problem lies with #switch in templates, won't work as a solution. Lessening the use of #switch is the way to go.

One example of this ripe for tweaking is Template:Movessetmid. It's written so that the move type (as opposed to the poke's typing) affects cell borders. So, instead of one or two uses of #switch, it's dozens upon dozens. Adjusting them won't remove any functionality, but it will reduce the use of Template:Type.

Additional workarounds could be:

1) Inputting some data manually as a temporary solution. For example, Mew's levelling learnset can be recreated without the template. Non-template tables could be used sparingly on problem pages like Deoxys and Mew until a more permanent solution is sorted.

2) Moving information. Instead of all of the information being on one page, split it so the loading is split too. Jazzcookie (talk) 15:00, January 17, 2019 (UTC)

I have posted some votes for other people on the wikia. I hope that kind of clears things up. I was trying to get the word out because the Voting Board is normally very inactive and not many people even know it exists.

Competitions
Hello Energy. I just wanted to ask, what kind of people run the competitions on this wikia? I'm talking about the Showdown Championships and the Art Contests that we have on the discussion posts. Are there certain people with special things or do you need to be a certain rank (like discussion monitor or something bigger)? If so, when are they held (like once every 1-3 months I think). I had several ideas for Showdown Championships themes and I wanted to let other people know about my creativity. I've made up viable Pokémon, rules, etc. You can tell me whatever time you want and explain it to me in detail. Thank you and have a nice day! TheWikiOddish (talk) 19:15, January 13, 2019 (UTC)

Fandom migration and Hiatus again
Hi, Energy X, I just popped up again to notice that i see a attention notice: And i see over the next few weeks, were migrating your fandom domain to fandom.com find out more at the link:

[//community.wikia.com/wiki/Help:Fandom_domain_migration#Why_are_the_domains_changing.3F https://community.wikia.com/wiki/Help:Fandom_domain_migration#Why_are_the_domains_changing.3F]

Should discussion post be noticed of the move? And will you alert us? All i wanted to ask. Because i believe everyone will get this and get worrisome so to prevent that panic and to evolve i would like to know what is happening to pokemon wiki fandom? Are we transfering? If so when?

So you know and thought i'd ask because i am getting worrisome we'll all lose our rights replies and so on. So you know as such so can you explain what's happening why the notice and yeah?

So you know and thought i'd ask because i am getting worrisome. And thought i'd let you know i am on hiatus again due to we're going to have icey bad weather tonight tomorrow and so on while this migration happens so yes it's to preserve power to make sure i don't lose any alright so you know as such.

I'll be back on when the bad weather passes so as you said i will return to you after it's gone and i'm good to get on via active again alright? So you know let me know what is happening?? And chat when i return alright so you know and later. Chat after the bad weather passes...-Trainer Micah (talk) 21:01, January 18, 2019 (UTC)

Er? Nevermind after reading it i see anyway i am on hiatus again due to bad weather passes through so you know I'll return after it passes good luck with the migration time we evolved...-Trainer Micah (talk) 21:21, January 18, 2019 (UTC)

Tabber
Hi, yeah I am down for testing a new layout but can we please do this after I have finished adding breeding movesets? I am halfway done for breeding movesets and it would be very long for me to write up a script to put breeding movesets in a new layout so is it ok if I continue finishing up the last half of the breeding movesets and we can transition into potentially another new layout afterwards?

(FYI I may not be here whilst my script is running)

Saiftey (talk) 13:11, January 20, 2019 (UTC)

Also I have a suggestion - Could we enable the wiki chat system for Pokemon wiki, I think the fluidity of a wiki chat would be incredibly useful on many occasions. Many people from here (including mods) don't use discord much if ever.

Moveset News
Hi, just thought I'd give you some good news! The overwhelming majority of all 4 movesets are completed from lordranged7:sandbox! I just need to go over the edits I've made and fix any hiccups and a go over a few (purposefully) skipped odd pokemon! I did notice some pokemon outside of the sandbox may have wrong movesets (that were put there a long time ago) so I might be investigating that afterwards.

Hey Energy X been awhile and Users opinion
''Hey i saw your images post and on my reply kinda read through that, Because i know i have had quite alot of experiences when comes to personal images of a user and well in opinion can i become a admin for discussion moderator duties? ''

The reason i asked: Is due to well i know we all have to agreed "someone in the morning" hours of 12am to 6am has to take care of the discussion to make sure it runs "smoothly".

''And i know that not only I, But Bill, Harsh, X Dragonlord, and Shashank have been deleting and deleting and deleting images non-stop such as that " and quite frankly my dear" we are agreeable it's been quite annoying to us all. - Because Paul the Dragon Trainer's not active and yeah. ''

''    So i thought it through and i was hoping to become a admin for my discussion moderator duties to make sure it "runs smoothly" for all of you when asleep. ''

Plus be aware that it's happened before say 12am to 6am because i have noted and said "nothing about it upto now i should have spoke to you sooner but didn't".

So if possible, I'd like to become a admin role for discussion moderator duties for the discussion post when your all asleep. Because it's happened before each time when you all are inactive, So the question is:

What should be done or what can be done?

Because none of you are active when it comes to hours such as that i thought about it awhile while inactive and on hiatus so what do you think? - In opinion

Because none of you are active and when it comes to personal images of a user him or herself it's only a appropriate action and approval i become a admin discussion moderator so i can help you all run it "24/7 if possibly" "and if necessary i can help by taking action".

Especially when we have replied the guidelines to the user do they lesson to us NO! So yes it's really annoying to us all especially when they don't know English.

And i have noted it, Before the others especially when it comes to mixed media they all can post pokemon stuff but no personal images stuff unless we extend the ideal to it and let them post what they want. But we have off topic too but that takes hugely digging to dig up so.

What to do think sir? A administrative user role ideal is what i want along with my discussion moderator duties and well two mustheads are better then one so if i become a admin for discussion moderator i can help out here and discussion to help thin out Vandals and so on if it's what you want in opinion?..

Because be aware that it's happened before and i should have told you first thing so what do you think do you think is it time?

Because i thought about it and if a user keep posting images of him or herself i thought about taking action on the user by firstly deleting the image like i've done, secondly going to the user via link and lastly banning the user for say 1 day or so depending on how many times the user posts a image of him or herself alright?

So you know, We have told and told users up and down if they lesson then we all wouldn't have this type of problem so yeah what to do? Your thoughts in opinion.

I'd really like to become a admin discussion moderator yes but when it comes to users oi someone should say something right so what to do? Knowing it's been awhile and i have noticed while inactive..-Trainer Micah (talk) 13:33, February 6, 2019 (UTC)

About your upvote about when you said
Mind explaining the post? I think the user just wanted it to make it like mixed media post and or off topic post so in saying i you know said why would you not tell us? And i'll you know before it goes off.

And special note: To you it may have been a nonsenseable post the user posted up so i did  send a warning to the user hopefully he'll explain it better next time otherwise a spam or deletion is acounted for alright.

So you know a small message today as i'm checking around discussion i can't believe users sometimes i'll keep you informed incase "something happens"..-Trainer Micah (talk) 21:52, February 7, 2019 (UTC)

Gottcha
1. I agree with you on that i'd wish they learn some english before saying hey i'll go disrespect this community and get away with it, really no way so i think it's best to examine everything over before actually starting so that away you wont disrespect anyone you know.

'' 2. And alright i will editor lots before i nominate myself to admin and i will do that if any user misbehaves in discussion or anywhere today, tomorrow, etc okay? so you know in/on that.''

'' If i need any help i'll let you all know alright kinda show some examples if possible, And this is possibly what you want to here so i'll editor lots and if needed i'll let you all know thank you for the message... Trainer Micah (talk) 20:47, February 8, 2019 (UTC)''

Please stop deleting off my edit for Professor Kukui, on Poke'mon Wiki. I am not doing anything wrong, I am simply putting in evidence from episodes that explains Professor Kukui's and Ash's father and son bond relationship that they share together.

And if you think, that I am making this up. Which by the way, I am not look back into the episodes of Sun and Moon, and Ultra Adventures and see for yourself.

Once again, I am not doing anything wrong. So, I am politly going to ask you. To please stop. Thank you.

Serebii related contents for Who's that pokemon weekly for discussion
Hi, i wanted to ask where can i start editor firstly?

''And on all discussion this user: [//pokemon.fandom.com/wiki/User:Najmul_hussen https://pokemon.fandom.com/wiki/User:Najmul_hussen] has posted a image from serebii.net of Who's that pokemon? And as you know i know he's possibly "stealing contents" from them.''

''  I have given him a first warning on post and i was also wondering are you okay "If" he does " there past related contents?" That are not upto ones at dated as dated today on them via site itself shown?''

''   Thought i'd ask because Najmul is trying to be creative in posting something new with us watching it as he continues "weekly" if alright so you know if your okay with that? I have replied saying yes he can continue yes we can watch it for him sense it'll only happening weekly are you okay with that?''

''Just wondering because Najmul is wanting to be "creative and posting something" So what do you think in opinion as we discuss it are you okay with that or not? Because as you know with our guidelines and Serebii i hate to get him into trouble alright.''

So you know let me know what you think in opinion if you need a report i can report the post for you if you want okay but so you know what do you think..Trainer Micah (talk) 13:16, February 15, 2019 (UTC)

Images and Galleries
Hello, EnergyX. I wanted to ask how I should upload and put images in galleries. You left a message for me last time about me not putting the images in the gallery correctly because I deleted "some space". I didn't see any kind of space that was to be deleted because I work in visual editor, so I can't see any of the code where any hidden stuff may be. I was going to update move galleries until I realized what you told me. Can you give information or a step-by-step guide on how to do, or should I be using Classic Editor instead of Visual Editor to add images. Thank you and have a nice day! TheWikiOddish (talk) 19:43, February 17, 2019 (UTC)

Another thing to add. There are all of these people posting about their bootleg TCG cards and I think it was inconsistant. I tried to inform them but they take them as normal cards.

Injustice
You should not have blocked me for the reason you gave. Anyway most of the paragraph I was working on and some of the other paragraphs in that particular section were already written in present tense before I got there. Instead of blocking me, you should have checked the biography for any mistakes and then put it into the right tense.

Besides I had no intention of changing the tense with my editing. I was trying to protect everyone else's feelings from being offended, not change the tense from past to present. The fact that I was blocked for one minor triviality that had nothing to do with why I made the edit, while 1996jm got away with changing one of the words to something of sexual intention really gets my goat.

Returning Pokémon
Hey Energy! You excited for Sword & Shield? Pretty great! Are you interested in the starters? Anyway, enough of that. I wanted to make sure if I, or anybody in the matter, has permission to add the returning Pokémon list to Sword & Shield. I was super unsure because I don't want to have another incident like what happened with USUM page and how there was a giant list of returning Pokémon (Smoochum, Mienfoo, Tropius) and some of them were also fake because people added stuff they wanted.

Ok, that sounds good. So far, these are the species that have been spotted: That's all the Pokémon that were spotted in the Direct. But they'll probably reveal more over time. I REALLY hope that they did the mini previews like they did in Sun & Moon where they would give you 1-2 minute presentation of what they had, like how they revealed New Pokémon, Alolan Forms, and Team Skull. Anyway, we can't officially put any of the Pokémon anywhere because we don't know what routes are what areas they are. We'll just have to wait until the game is out. Thank you & have a nice day!

I need to ask you about something again
Why in English version Beedle's name was changed to Weedle? For me this change makes no sense at all. Why did they change one letter? Similar thing happened with Bayleaf whose name was changed to Bayleef, for some absurd reason.Kintobor (talk) 21:38, March 8, 2019 (UTC)Kintobor

Excuse me
Never, ever revert my edits without explanation. I always need explanation for reverting my edits. This is necessary.Kintobor (talk) 22:02, March 8, 2019 (UTC)Kintobor

Problem
Energy X, help me out here, please? LegendaryGriffin5 is being very rude to me and is adding duplicate images of Ash's newly obtained Meltan that he copied from YouTube. I tried very hard to be nice and tell him to stop, but he keeps doing it. Please talk some sense into him and tell him to stop being very rude to other users and adding duplicate images that are low in quality, please? DragonSpore18 (talk) 16:38 March 10, 2019 (UTC)

Do you want to know my opinion about Pokémon?
I prefer Japanese version over English version because Japanese version is the real one. Anyway, I want to say something else. I hate Mega Evolutions. I will tell you why. Because after Mega Evolutions Pokémon become Pokéfreaks. They look like complete weirdos. I think that Mega Evolutions should never ever appear in anime and only stay within games. In the games Mega Evolutions are okay but there is no place for them in the anime.Kintobor (talk) 20:00, March 15, 2019 (UTC)Kintobor

Sorry but you are wrong
Anime is not the perfect copy of the games. Anime plot and games plot are different. The fact that in anime Pokémon uses the move it can't learn in the games is not mistake at all. This is just difference between games and anime. Plain and simple. No mistake. No error. No goof. But a difference.Kintobor (talk) 15:05, March 17, 2019 (UTC)Kintobor

Can I ask you about something?
Which version of Pokémon do you like more? Japanese or English? I definitely prefer Japanese version as it is the original version. But English version became much more popular than Japanese version and it caused many people to think that English is the original version, but it isn't. Japanese version is the original. I watched it and I really enjoyed it. I just revealed my opinion to you. Do you also prefer Japanese version over English one?Kintobor (talk) 10:38, March 21, 2019 (UTC)Kintobor

Please, help me
Give me a links to all episodes of original Pokémon anime in the Japanese with English subtitles. I can't find it anywhere because English version became much more popular than original one (I hate this fact). I want to watch all Pokémon: Indigo League and Pokémon: Adventures in the Orange Islands episodes in Japanese with English subtitles. I don't care about English version (which I hate). I only ask politely you for some help.Kintobor (talk) 21:33, March 21, 2019 (UTC)User:Kintobor

Pokemon Answers Closing April 15th
Hey Energy, I got reather a big message from TimmyQuivy on Pokemon Answers and it seems Fandom has decided to close Pokemon answers our Neighborhood pokemon questions and answers wiki.


 *  If you haven't seen the message do pop by my message wall and take a look below, I feel reather sad that pokemon answers wasn't as popular so effective by April 15th Pokemon answers is closing. Due to other answer community wikis are open and to triangulate a positive or negative problem result there wanting to close certain answers wiki's idk if it's a bad thing or good thing.


 * But so you know when you see this do give it a read. https://pokemon.answers.wikia.com/wiki/Thread:239942 


 * Reason if that community closes then i feel sad it wasn't as popular with Pokemon wikis so you know what must be done in order to keep that alive?


 * But so you know in message...-Trainer Micah (talk) 00:59, March 26, 2019 (UTC)
 * Okay thanks for letting me know and alright. I'll be in discussion if needed then. A real shame though i loved to ask question's and answer them with users on there but now yeah i guess one door closes another opens i guess but so you know in saying.
 * Going to really miss that site. Was really a relaxing site but eh? Fandom's decision was made so they even asked me if i wanted to close it straight away? or wait til April 15th?
 * So i choose sense i was the only one there active. So yeah and two he even said there was so many questions and answers wikis open that the Seo and fandom made the decision and was final sense they we're trying to close alot as possible to get it all into one wikia for answers and triangulate to see where a problem is with new coding there imputing.
 * So if the front page still has our link could it be editored out sense it's gone and closed? It's a shame really alot of information destroyed never did he ask to see if he wanted any categories or information regarding Admin dishboard or information our previous admin's made up but eh. What's done is done i guess i'll be on after 1:30 tomorrow depending on time zones okay.
 * And i may talk with Utkarr22 to let him know what happened with answers but so you know after that discussion so i'm off thank you for the message kinda lightened my night abit so you know thanks Energy *Cheered me up alittle*..!-Trainer Micah (talk) 02:51, March 27, 2019 (UTC)

I was really sorry at 2017 with inserting reptile pokemon category in this Wikia. I hope you understand me, but I thought Pokemons sich like Wartortle or Charizard were looked like reptiles. If you were upset, I'm really sorry and I won't continue same thing again. This is my apologies.

Game data and mobile users
I know I can be wordy so I'm gonna try to keep this short! For mobile users, the game data sections on Pokémon pages are pretty lengthy; as there isn't a table of contents, tabber isn't enabled, and information can only be hidden under = or == headers. So everything is shown- from game locations down to all the learnset tables. It makes navigation difficult if folks want specific information.

Would it be viable to abolish the 'Game data' heading, and bump up the sub-headings like Pokédex entries to == ? Also, since Saiftey has now completed the learnsets, could we look into separating the old generations from the main Pokémon pages to further help mobile users? Jazzcookie (talk) 19:08, April 4, 2019 (UTC)


 * @Jazz Some changes I was intending to make include creating indivual movesets by generations by creating subpages and creating links to see previous ones. The reason being that with another generation bound to happen, it will a cluttered table. --Rai 水 (talk) 19:20, April 4, 2019 (UTC)


 * Yeah, one of the things I've been pondering is if we could sweep into gen 8 with a whole new moves template. There was an edit Energy made a while back, in which he listed all the move sets by generation, and it kinda inspired me.
 * I've been playing around with smashing them all into one, you can see some of my testing for that here (though it should be noted that this is solely a personal project, I just wanted to see what it'd look like and tbh it's been fun to play around with). I think it might be a good idea to start listing move sets by game rather than by generation too, considering how massively different the Let's Go! move sets are, but that's something for the wider community to decide. Btw, I don't believe we've spoken before, but welcome back to the wiki. ^.^ Jazzcookie (talk) 19:38, April 4, 2019 (UTC)

Back to the original topic. I wasn't suggesting fiddling with any backend stuff, just changing how we header sections to something like this: ==Biology==

Sprites
etc. etc.

Basically sectioning the game data to make it easier for mobile. It looks fine right now on desktop, but if you grab your phone and view a Pokémon page, it's messy and hard to find specific data. Imagine you're looking for Cubone's tutor moves from gen 3; in order to view it you'll find you have to scroll through:


 * game locations
 * side game locations
 * Pokédex entries
 * base stats
 * 7 tables of leveling
 * 7 TM/HM tables
 * 6 breeding tables
 * 4 tutor tables

It's really hefty. This is also a good reason for separating older move sets; having all of them on one article doesn't work on mobile, and it actively hinders navigation. Plus, as you noted, having so much data on a single page tends to cause issues. Alternatively, it's a non-wiki but an example of a list showing every move can be found on Veekun if that's something you'd prefer to work towards, though I'm not sure how feasible it would be.

I don't think how Bulbapedia lists their moves is the problem, it's more that we lack a distinct template style. For example, the colour theming based on type was inspired by BP, many years ago, and remains the same today. For the code side of things, have wikia staff looked through the move sets? Or is anyone here a pro at templates? There's bound to be stuff that could be optimised and maybe make it easier on the eye in edit mode. Jazzcookie (talk) 10:48, April 5, 2019 (UTC)

Re: Return
Yes I have. I would also like to get my rights back too but that can wait if you feel it so. I intend to update more than just infoboxes for Pokemon pages but also for move infoboxes and tables as well. As for the infoboxes you were talking about, I just don't see how that will be used effectively for Pokemon and moves considering typing coloring wilk be all but erased due to it. I think it will only work for characters and character Pokemon. I'm not trying to pushy; just making suggestions. When ready I would like to make a highlight to see how people feel about the change. All in all, happy to be back and be as helpful as I can be. --Rai 水 (talk) 19:14, April 4, 2019 (UTC)
 * Yes I'm aware. When I'm finished, I'll post a forum to get an approval from the users here before making any changes to those things in particular. --Rai 水 (talk) 22:52, April 4, 2019 (UTC)
 * Thank you for re-instating me as a Content Mod. And don't worry, I'm in no way ready for the change and I'm in no rush. --Rai 水 (talk) 22:57, April 4, 2019 (UTC)

File page redirect test
Hi Energy X! This is Chen from Fandom and I'm the community manager to support all wikis under TV/Movie vertical. How are you??

I left you a message on Slack yesterday but you may not have seen it yet. I'm contacting you because in the next few weeks, we will do some SEO test on some wikis including Pokemon wiki. The test is that anonymous/non logged-in users will not see the file pages; instead, these file pages will be redirected to the article pages where the file was used/input the first time when anonymous/non logged-in users click the link. For example, if they click "http://xxxxx.fandom.com/File:xxx" on Google and it will link them to an article page.

This won't affect any logged in users at all and you will still be able to click on the file pages. We hope doing so can help your community eliminate low quality, low value pages and make Google like your wiki more by improving the SEO.

I hope to give you a headsup and let you know first. As long as users are logged-in, they won't see any difference. Do you have any questions? Or do you think it's necessary to post a notice about this on Discussions? Please let me know.

Cheers!

Pokemon Personalities
The user has replied and said he got them of Tumblr a site we possibly shouldn't getting them off of correct? So you know as such thought i relay the reply message idk why i did that but eh?.

Got other problems to deal with such as my dad i'm not mad at him. But really should have waited til the 26th to get my new laptop computer. He got me a Samsnug laptop computer today not quite what i was looking for but oh well depending on which is faster i guess.

So soon i'll be back to normal my old laptop computer is done for because it had a malware problem so yeah my dad said it's done with. So can't blame him on that i guess i'll enjoy what i have i thanked him big time on getting it so yeah.

Soon i'll be back to normal posting images for my mixed media post but wow April such a funny month to get something you want so chat later on i guess...-Trainer Micah (talk) 14:44, April 12, 2019 (UTC)

Porting Switch photos
Hey Energy! I would like to ask what would be an easy way to port Switch screenshots from the Switch to a computer. I wanted to get screenshots from the Let's Go games and Smash Ultimate and possibly from Sword/Shield in the future. I've looked up multiple ways to do it, but they all involve a Facebook or Twitter account, which I don't have. If there is any other simple way you can think of, then please notify me. Thanks and have a great day! TheWikiOddish (talk) 15:11, April 21, 2019 (UTC)
