Aye, the admin requests have been done, except the restoration of that page, since the reason is that the page was copied from Bulbapedia.  Energy X  10:54, July 21, 2014 (UTC)

Jobs
Hi, Shockstorm. I was wondering if there are any maintenance edits you would like me to do. Ellis99  I'm feeling  the flow!  16:19, July 21, 2014 (UTC)

Ok. I'll start now.

Ah, I see...
So, It was a global block? Why these global blocks exists in every wikias? These blocks made me scared :(. OK, Thanks for answering me, Shockstorm! Nect aria   (talk) 17:51, July 23, 2014 (UTC)

Hah, did you really think I'd leave this place? It is true that I deserved that block, but I managed to convince the staff that I couldn't leave this place. Permanently, that is.  Energy X  10:32, July 25, 2014 (UTC)

Ach, I'd rather have that stay in the past. This is not the time to speak of such things.  Energy X  16:35, July 25, 2014 (UTC)

Comment
Could you comment on the battle of Skrelp vs. Floette?  Energy X  21:23, July 26, 2014 (UTC)

Map
As you might've noticed, the maps feature has been enabled, as seen here. If you've got the time, maybe you can finish existing map or make new maps? If you do, don't do the Hoenn yet, since there needs to be a better quality map.  Energy X  23:11, July 26, 2014 (UTC)

Hi Shock
I was wondering, if i'm not from Friday, could you do my blog please. Since I might run out of internet before then. Ellis99  I'm feeling  the flow!  17:06, July 27, 2014 (UTC)

Thanks Shock
Your a life saver and I've always wanted to try XD. Ellis99  I'm feeling  the flow!  05:54, July 28, 2014 (UTC)

By the way
I'll tell you when I might not be able to do blog's again in the future, so that you can then stand in for me and I'll be back doing my blogs from Monday next week and can you do it on Sunday instead due to rounding up the week's news. Ellis99  I'm feeling  the flow!  06:00, July 28, 2014 (UTC)

Adminship
Congratlations! It is good to have you as an admin. Well, there is still a lot of work to do.  Energy X  07:03, July 29, 2014 (UTC)
 * Thanks. Glad to be of service here. --Shockstorm (talk) 07:05, July 29, 2014 (UTC)

Ban
Ah, now I have to worry to ban vandals first. Oh well...

And, wow, you managed to get 20 000 edits already? Impressive.  Energy X  07:26, July 30, 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah, but a lot of it's from image categorization :p --Shockstorm (talk) 07:28, July 30, 2014 (UTC)

Category Change
Hey, I'm glad to hear the problem was just a template cache problem. if you notice any pages that aren't in the correct categories just let me know and I'll rerun the bot on the last 100 or so.

Hope you're having a good day!

Cheers,

Bot Request 2
Will you do me a favor, look through those photos, and make sure that they actually need to be deleted. Last time that I deleted stuff it was stuff that didn't need to be deleted. >.<

After you've checked them I'll delete them.

Re: Sprites
Thank you for directing me to that sprite page -- you saved me a lot of time! ;)

I'll try to make sure not to reupload any sprites that are already on the Wikia. Right now I'm working on fixing those learnset tables, so it'll be a while before I start on the sprites.

I usually do an image search to find sprites to make sure they haven't already been uploaded. Back sprites of certain Pokemon have been uploaded as well.

Here is an example of how I name sprites (I usually name the sprites according to the type (front, back, shiny) and game (BW, XY, etc)): "SnivyXY" for the standard front sprite from X and Y, "SnivyShinyXY" for the shiny front sprite, "SnivyBackXY" if it's a back sprite, and "SnivyBackShinyXY" if it's a shiny back sprite.

Bot Request 2 RE:
Alright, I'll delete them soon.

Manga
Hm, do you think this is a good way? I inserted the external link to the site where I copied the image.  Energy X  12:44, August 2, 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, that looks good. --Shockstorm (talk) 18:09, August 2, 2014 (UTC)

Membership
Damn. You could've let me (and other know) you would make a request.  Energy X  18:03, August 3, 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah, I kinda forget about it. Plus I was on vacation. --Shockstorm (talk) 00:24, August 4, 2014 (UTC)

Hey, Shockstorm!
Can you please move the type pages that Ellis99 messed up? I can't do that because I'm not a rollbacker yet! I wish I should have been a rollbacker ;_;. <font color="##2E8B57">Nect <font color="#FFFF00">aria   (talk) 09:00, August 5, 2014 (UTC)

Re: BW2 Sprites
Thanks for your response, Shockstorm. I figured it would be best to leave the BW2 sprite sections blank for the identical animations. Moonlit Sylveon   The Little Fireball  '   02:46, August 7, 2014 (UTC)

Shockstorm
Could you upload the pics from Pokémon Mystery Dungeon Wiki. <font color="#DB7093">Ellis99  <font color="#DB7093">CODE  <font color="#DB7093">XANA  13:01, August 7, 2014 (UTC)

Hey Ellis99's Project...
Hey Shockstorm,

it's me Trainer Micah i got your message & thank you for letting me know so you know, Ellis99 has something to share with us with his new blog if you care to check it out as a user it's called:

So you know if your online let me know,

Oh and about your message i like ask what wiki is a good place to chat on can you send me some links?

So you know let me know on that as well..

Kind Regards...Trainer Micah (talk) 18:27, August 7, 2014 (UTC)

Shock
Could you upload all the MD pics from Mystery Dungeon Wiki so we can wrap up this merge. <font color="#DB7093">Ellis99  <font color="#DB7093">CODE  <font color="#DB7093">XANA  19:29, August 7, 2014 (UTC)
 * Yes, I'll try to soon. I have all the remaining images saved on my computer, so it's all good. --Shockstorm (talk) 19:51, August 7, 2014 (UTC)

"Megaevolution"
Why did you rename it to...that? It was fine the way it was. Makes the Wikia look even more sloppy and lazy than it appears to be. The renaming was pretty pointless to be honest. --OmegaRasengan (talk) 06:53, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * I moved it since Adrian requested it and I trust his judgment. Of course, maybe it should be moved back. I was going to say you should ask on the talk page, but it looks like you already did :p. I'll be available later today if you all decide it should be moved back, just let me know. --Shockstorm (talk) 16:12, August 8, 2014 (UTC)

Mystery Dunegon
How goes the Mystery Dungeon project? Just asking because we need to report to Yoponot to change redirects from other wikis.  Energy X  17:03, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Didn't Yoponot say the site will be shut down too, just to confirm my recollection? <font color="#DB7093">Ellis99  <font color="#DB7093">CODE  <font color="#DB7093">XANA  17:11, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Perhaps. But the other sites link to that Wiki, so it should be informed to redirect them to here.  Energy X  17:23, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * I think you should inform that to Yoponot. <font color="#DB7093">Ellis99  <font color="#DB7093">CODE  <font color="#DB7093">XANA  17:28, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * It can be redirected now, I have all the images that haven't been uploaded yet (which may not be very important, but I've saved them on my computer just in case). --Shockstorm (talk) 20:25, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * Could upload them on here please. <font color="#DB7093">Ellis99  <font color="#DB7093">CODE  <font color="#DB7093">XANA  20:46, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * I already said I'll do it when I get around to it. --Shockstorm (talk) 23:46, August 8, 2014 (UTC)
 * The only reason why I said it is because we can wrap up the merge.  Ellis99  <font color="paleturquoise">CODE   XANA  18:36, August 9, 2014 (UTC)

Categories
Thanks for the tip.--Kyurem147 (talk) 17:44, August 9, 2014 (UTC)

Block
I saw you blocked Kyurem for tagging valid images for deletion. Can you show me some examples of the said violation? Well, besides the Eevee images.  Energy X  10:05, August 13, 2014 (UTC)


 * Well, it is partly justified that his images have much bigger resolution, but that's it. Hm.  Energy X  17:18, August 13, 2014 (UTC)

I do
Want to become an admin, for the right reasons because I have notice quite a lot of pages I would like to delete and delete redirects since I would like a bot of my own to correct links.  Ellis99  <font color="paleturquoise">CODE   XANA  18:41, August 13, 2014 (UTC)


 * I have finished the Administrators page, so you can change the protection back now.  Ellis99  <font color="paleturquoise">CODE   XANA  18:49, August 13, 2014 (UTC)
 * Ok, sounds good. In that case, I could support you. Also, I don't think you need to be an admin to use a bot. It just requires community consensus so you can have an account that's flagged as a bot. --Shockstorm (talk) 19:37, August 13, 2014 (UTC)

Could you
Sort out the broken redirects page in the special pages because I would if I had the powers to do so.  Ellis99  <font color="paleturquoise">CODE   XANA  16:51, August 14, 2014 (UTC)
 * Ok, I've fixed the ones I can. The two blog links are a problem on Wikia's end, I'll contact them sometime about those links. --Shockstorm (talk) 17:27, August 14, 2014 (UTC)

Mollie's Absol page
Hey thanks for helping. Can you also unprotect the Mollie's Absol page please? -- DragonSpore18 (talk) 03:51, August 17, 2014 (UTC)
 * I restored the page since Kyurem tried to delete it (even though it didn't need to be). I think it's unprotected now so you can edit it if you want. --Shockstorm (talk) 04:04, August 17, 2014 (UTC)

I am sorry
i am sorry for adding things like "coming soon" to pages. STaMpYsNuMbR1FaN (talk) 06:19, August 17, 2014 (UTC)

Could you sort out
Blasty's redirect problem in the broken redirects page in the special pages section of the site.  Ellis99  <font color="paleturquoise">CODE   XANA  07:45, August 17, 2014 (UTC)

Hey sorry for not responding for a while there, I didn't see my messages. Don't worry though I won't be uploading any fan art. Kuzuri (talk)

Messages from Ellis99
Going back to a conversation we had. I would use a bot since it's better at noticing link problems than a human because sometimes we can miss things. A bot is better finding links.  Ellis99  <font color="paleturquoise">CODE   XANA  17:42, August 17, 2014 (UTC)
 * Yeah, it is more efficient. If you want you can look at how to use them (like here). Once you're ready you can start a forum thread so the community can approve the bot request and give your bot account a flag. --Shockstorm (talk) 18:04, August 17, 2014 (UTC)

I'll remove the deletion
I'll ask Moonlit to replace the current pic since it has a white background instead of a clear one.  Ellis99  <font color="paleturquoise">CODE   XANA  16:20, August 18, 2014 (UTC)
 * Ok, I didn't realize it didn't have transparency. That's fine then. Next time just add a reason to the deletion notice with a "|" ;) --Shockstorm (talk) 21:06, August 18, 2014 (UTC)

Hi, Shockstorm!
No problem, that's what I was thinking too. --Shockstorm (talk) 13:38, August 19, 2014 (UTC)

Hey Shockstorm,
It's me Trainer Micah hey i'm just stopping by to let you know that i am about to archive my talk page so you kinda know,

And i need someone to you know move it onto my talk page so whenever you get this i'll be done to making archive okay..

So you know oh and if you need me to do anything later or so let me know on that alright.

So you know, kind regards..Trainer Micah (talk) 16:09, August 19, 2014 (UTC)

Or Actually um can you do the "Archive" for me since my talk page doesn't have it please?

Kind Regards...Trainer Micah (talk) 16:13, August 19, 2014 (UTC)

Rename
Could you rename the admins and leader of Team Flare, example, XY Celosia, so there is a gap inbetween the "XY" and the name.  Ellis99  <font color="paleturquoise">CODE   XANA  19:28, August 19, 2014 (UTC)

Sure/Thanks
Sure, I'll upload better quality pictures for those two, they're not going to be as good as the other ones, but they'll be at least better. If there are any others I somehow missed, please let me know. And thanks. $Adrian$ $Perry$ $GZ$ 21:41, August 20, 2014 (UTC)

Images
I know the article concept, but about the images. Which ones can I not tag?--Kyurem147 (talk) 07:17, August 21, 2014 (UTC)

Images
I'd would simply rename an image like dream artwork, but even I can't do that. What if an image is bigger than current one with different name. and/or different format. This move template is that like renaming how's it work? Also what's default skin, Oasis?--Kyurem147 (talk) 23:34, August 21, 2014 (UTC)

So if I want a pic or in other words renamed I use that move template and you or anyone else would move and rename it? Also the simisear images that's where my question come in. Are doubles of these kind allowed as long as its different named? Like the eevee incident (which I deeply apoligize for) you didn't like me tagginig those images. SO I didn't tag these. For example. Same size and format.--Kyurem147 (talk) 23:51, August 21, 2014 (UTC)

Celebi
Was something wrong with 251Celebi_Pokemon Colosseum?--Kyurem147 (talk) 02:47, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

It was taken another from another site? Am I gonna have to clean up sort of speak?--Kyurem147 (talk) 02:49, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

I'm sorry really didn't know! I'll help, I'll show my the pics so you can delete them.--Kyurem147 (talk) 02:52, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

I'm done. I removed and tagged site named ones, I cleaned up my mess. They're all in the Candidates for deletion.--Kyurem147 (talk) 03:50, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

I'm really sorry, I really had no idea that was illegal. Now I've learned something new and easy to remember Never take and add an image with a site name on it right? I just wanna say if I have made a another mess I don't know about, please tell me and I'll help fix any way I can.--Kyurem147 (talk) 05:28, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

Could you do a News Blog
for next week (not this Sunday coming up)since I'm going on holiday for a week.  Ellis99  <font color="paleturquoise">CODE   XANA  11:03, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

Template help
I tried to get this template for the Dutch pokémon wiki but i can't make the transparant border appear. I've copied the code and made the roundy template. Can you tell me what i'm doing wrong? Jantje132 (talk) 15:02, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

Images
I would, but could you tell me how and why? Where's the link go? Why provide a link? I'm starting to get worried here.--Kyurem147 (talk) 23:31, August 22, 2014 (UTC)

Well no, it just I'm worried the outcome I mean what happens after I put the links down. I mean I worked adding and catergorizing them. But if I have to take them off I will.

Well most of them, some are from ...well others. Man this stress is killing me I'm getting heart pain!--Kyurem147 (talk) 00:00, August 23, 2014 (UTC)

Licensing
What? How, I never thought that someone would do that. Just which user(s) has done that?

But, deleting images is not much of an option. However, it seems a project to replace images is inevitable, perhaps you, Kyurem and Moonlight Sylveon might upload (bigger) artwork (and categorise it)?  Energy X  08:50, August 23, 2014 (UTC)

Chat
Could you please come to the chat?  Energy X  13:12, August 23, 2014 (UTC)

PokePower Leaders
Once the forum has won in favor of ridding the leaders, could you possibly make Moonlit the leader of Project Sprites.  Ellis99  <font color="paleturquoise">CODE   XANA  17:41, August 23, 2014 (UTC)

Did you vote on the poffin poll? Got the message from X?--Kyurem147 (talk) 00:29, August 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * Why does this matter so much to you people? I mean, seriously. I'd appreciate if you don't bother me with this nonsense. --Shockstorm (talk) 00:30, August 24, 2014 (UTC)

Sorry my bad. I'll take break for while.--Kyurem147 (talk) 00:32, August 24, 2014 (UTC)

.css / .js scripts
Hey, do you know anything about those scripts? I have a brilliant idea, but it just requires some knowledge of those codings (which I have none).  Energy X  19:59, August 24, 2014 (UTC)
 * No, unfortunately, I don't have any experience in that. Although Slaying might. --Shockstorm (talk) 20:19, August 24, 2014 (UTC)

Shucks. Well, I am going to contact Slaying.  Energy X  20:29, August 24, 2014 (UTC)

Well if you both say so. He said as long as they don't violate fair use. I can't figure out what he means. I just don't make another mistake. If I do please tell me and I didn't mean too.--Kyurem147 (talk) 21:19, August 26, 2014 (UTC)

I still can't figure out what he means. He said let you explain it.--Kyurem147 (talk) 22:35, August 26, 2014 (UTC)

Troll Issues
Hello, Shockstorm,

We are currently having a serious issue with a Troll named "ShadeTempest" who came onto this Wikia about two days ago solely to insult, harass, inform us that we are not as good as Bulbapedia, and that we should shut down The Pokemon Wiki. He refuses to stop, and he has been very rude and snarky to Nectaria, Monfernape, me, and EnergyX. He has a sock-puppet/friend (?) named "Cloudisfast" (who popped up at the same time he showed up) helping him out as well (although this sock-puppet "user" has already been blocked for extreme rudeness and harassment). I strongly believe that ShadeTempest should be banned for at least a few months, if not permanantly, because he is blatantly Trolling. He has no desire to contribute here -- only to spew rudeness and hate toward our Wiki. Please help. . . ShadeTempest needs to be banned for intimidating behaviour, harassment, and Trolling, just like his "puppet" (or friend) "Cloudisfast". ShadeTempest is clearly a Troll, and it is blatantly obvious that he is trying to stir up trouble and anger here on the Wiki.

(You can also see my and Nectaria's messages to EnergyX on his current talk page, and his 11th talk page archive, to fully assess the situation.)
