Talk:Ash's Noivern

There are a couple of things I want to bring up about the Trivia section of this article. First off, it says "Ironically, Ash obtained Noibat after releasing Goodra." This is not what irony is; irony is the subversion of expectations where the opposite of the expected happens as opposed to the expected. People were speculating Ash would get a Noibat as early as the first days of the Kalos arc. Please change it. Furthermore, the bit about Ash obtaining Noibat after releasing Goodra isn't really necessary. You could say it's his second Dragon-Type Kalos Pokemon after Goodra, but that's really it.

The second thing I want to bring up isn't as much a problem as it is a matter of wording: "Like Phanpy, Larvitar and Scraggy, Noibat was hatched from an egg." Casual readers to this site aren't going to know who those Pokemon are if they're relatively new viewers. Since I can't edit this article, I just want to say that I think the following would be a better way to put this sentence:

"Noibat will be Ash's fourth Pokemon to hatch from an egg: The first three were his Phanpy, Larvitar and Scraggy. However, Noibat is only the third of these Pokemon that Ash still owns, as Larvitar went back to its mother."

I know the bit about Larvitar going back to its mother isn't necessary, but I put it for the sake of accuracy. I know we're not professionals on this site, but that doesn't mean we shouldn't strive to make our articles look professional. There's a benefit to having our articles written that way, and whenever I write an article for a page, I always try to be as accurate as possible (even anal-retentively so) while still making the article an entertaining read for whoever happens upon it. We want a quality site, do we not? So could someone who can edit the article please make these changes? I want articles to look professional is all, even if it's just trivia.

Thank you all for your time.
