I know that all pokemon are referred to as "mouse pokemon" or "seed pokemon", but that is not their species. Both Pikachu and Rattata are referred to as "Mouse Pokemon", but are they of the same pokemon species? Simply no. A pokemon species is the pokemon they are, not "mouse" or "fox" pokemon. As such, Pikachu is a member of the Pikachu species and Rattata is a member of the Rattata species. <span style="font-family:Edwardian Script ITC; font-size:12pt">[[User:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Omega</span>]] [[User talk:Omega Tyrant|<span style="color:forestgreen">Tyrant</span>]]</span> [[Image: TyranitarMS.png|25px ]] 16:24, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

:I just figured that we should use any originating-universe data of "species" (or anything) for the infobox, but overriding some parts that don't make sense (such as this one) seems okay.

popular

Is there really any argument about Pikachu? It IS the most popular and well known Pokemon in the world. Zixor (talk) 08:39, 24 July 2008 (UTC)

A Sheep

Why did an admin just vandalize and protect the page? Zordon123456789mlw7 (talk) 06:00, April 1, 2010 (UTC)

Because sheep are wooly. (Also, this.) Toomai Glittershine Toomai.png eXemplary Logic 12:09, April 1, 2010 (UTC)
Don't you think that was a little too far? I went crazy thinking about it. Also I didn't consider that mostly because I live in a different time zone so it was still march when the post was made. Zordon123456789mlw7 (talk) 06:29, April 2, 2010 (UTC)

Species

I know that all pokemon are referred to as "mouse pokemon" or "seed pokemon", but that is not their species. Both Pikachu and Rattata are referred to as "Mouse Pokemon", but are they of the same pokemon species? Simply no. A pokemon species is the pokemon they are, not "mouse" or "fox" pokemon. As such, Pikachu is a member of the Pikachu species and Rattata is a member of the Rattata species. Omega Tyrant TyranitarMS.png 16:24, June 20, 2010 (UTC)

I just figured that we should use any originating-universe data of "species" (or anything) for the infobox, but overriding some parts that don't make sense (such as this one) seems okay. Toomai Glittershine Toomai.png The Stats Guy 16:33, June 20, 2010 (UTC)
