:::What do you mean with "Some of the Pokémon were unidentified so I didn't bother with them"?  In the description linking to each (above), I identified the Pokémon if it was a boss battle, so unless you're referring to something else, I'm confused.  The only one I didn't identify above was [https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAADVHjzv-8Fuw Exeggutor].  I can try to provide any details for anything missing - or I can suggest filenames - for others that might need it for file naming purposes.
:::I also don't see [https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAADVHjzwFZ21w Distortion Land], [https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAADVHjzxlPcBA Plasma Tundra], or [https://miiverse.nintendo.net/posts/AYMHAAACAAADVHjz1TxgqQ Legend Terrain] yet.  Thanks!  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 19:13, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
::::The back middle Pokémon in the Dark Land image and in Distortion Land image were the ones I couldn't tell hence why I called them unidentified. The other Pokémon, I was fine with. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 19:23, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
:::::Ah, no worries.  I was planning to list the Pokémon in the captions at Bulbapedia, anyway (I left you a quick link to {{bp|User:CycloneGU/Origin Hideaway|Origin Hideaway}} over there so you can see what I mean), and users seeing that can also then identify where the stages are if anyone should want to go that far.  They do circle in-game, though, so the stage location on the screen is pretty much a moot point unless a user knows every boss of every stage.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 19:26, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
::::::Legend Terrain has one too with ones I couldn't tell. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 19:27, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
:::::::I know them, that's what counts here since I snapped the picture. LOL  From 12 o'clock, they're Gallade (probably the iffy one, the text hides them when they rotate around), Barbaracle, Shelgon (who is a pain to catch as it turns invincible periodically), Reuniclus, Dusclops, and Hawlucha.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 19:33, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
[Outdent]
I'll go ahead and say let's do just the one boss battle and area screen for now.  I'll raise a discussion about how to handle those kinds of images, and from that point, we can do more.  Of course, if I've done enough edits, I can do more anyway once a policy is determined for using the screenshots; the two best options I think are thumbnails (which users can visit for full size) or an image gallery, but I can't see an image of the size of the area screen in every section.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 19:37, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
:I forgot to add; I'll grab more selection screens this evening from my Miiverse posts (or, if I see others post them, I might use one of them to save me a post since the only difference is bosses appearing).  If I can't upload them yet, I'll post a new message here.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 19:39, 29 April 2015 (UTC)
Haha, I guess the secret number isn't as large as I feared it might be. =D  I just tried uploading [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Black_Realm_Rumble_World.png Black Realm] with success, so I should be good now for uploading the rest of the area shots and anything else I pull for pages.  Thanks!  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 02:10, 30 April 2015 (UTC)

== Images related to Episodes ==
I have some pics regarding future episodes that i got from TV Tokyo site, but i am not able to, can you help me with it, i am here to contribute [[User:Upratik 12|Upratik 12]] ([[User talk:Upratik 12|talk]]) 06:31, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
:Blazingfist just took care of it, but thanks for pointing it out. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 17:09, 30 April 2015 (UTC)
== Delete Template ==
Since the delete templates on Bulbapedia and Archives are separate entities, how about rewording the one here?  Right now, it says, "If this page obviously does not meet the criteria for deletion, or you intend to fix it, please remove this notice, but do not remove this notice '''from articles that you have created yourself'''."  Better wording might be "from images that you have uploaded yourself".  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 23:09, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
:It's a page so I believe that was why it was called an article. I still fixed it though. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 23:29, 1 May 2015 (UTC)
== Sky Crest Range, not Ridge ==
Can you please move {{red link|http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Sky_Crest_Ridge_Rumble_World.png|this}}?  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 20:22, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
:Moved. I'm guessing the link name provided on my talk page was a typo and the Miiverse post had the right spelling. LOL [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 20:33, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
::Not only that, but the article was right as well (Range).  I linked the image and noticed the difference, so quickly memoed since I apparently can't move images.  Thanks!  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 20:36, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
:::You're welcome. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 20:39, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
Ugh.  Now the image is refusing to create a thumbnail at {{bp|Legend Terrain#Sky Crest Range|Sky Crest Range}}.  Purging does nothing.  Can you see if it shows and fix it otherwise?  I'm trying to avoid reuploading it.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 22:34, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
:The same applied to when I added an image of [[:File:Shauna XY060 showcase.png|Shauna]] to her page and I can't get it to show either so there is nothing I could do. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 23:00, 3 May 2015 (UTC)
::Must be broken.  I tried a second image as well, same problem.  Won't add others for the time being but will check my collection.  I wish I had a capture card for the mini sprites on the lower screen...  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 00:08, 4 May 2015 (UTC)
:::So do we re-upload those broken images from yesterday?  New ones are thumbnailing appropriately (see Poké Diamond Digger, which I even replaced when a non-text version was requested), but others are still not showing thumbnails.  Or can they be repaired without reupload?  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 02:23, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
::::You don't have to reupload the images. You can perform a null edit on the pages the images aren't showing up. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 02:48, 5 May 2015 (UTC)
== Serena's Braixen ==
To prevent a dispute over the infobox image in use, can you confirm if the naming convention bit is correct and, if it is, can you please rename the image [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Serena%27s_Braixen&type=revision&diff=2291175&oldid=2290957 in this edit] to have that name?  We could of course reupload it over the other, but renaming might be better so we don't have the same stray image and messed up histories.  The filename can be corrected at the article once we have the renames completed.
[http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/1/1f/Serena_Braixen.png This image]] is the one that currently has the filename '''Serena Braixen.png'''.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 16:00, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
:The naming convention regarding the file name being called Serena Braixen.png is correct. It isn't necessary for the name changes to happen, the image change to appear in the server takes time. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 20:02, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
::You're not following.  See [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Serena_Braixen.png here].  The file shown in the image, ''and at that filename'', does not conform to the standard set forth in {{bp|Serena's Pancham|every}} {{bp|Ash's Pikachu|other}} {{bp|Clemont's Chespin|owned}} {{bp|Ash's Hawlucha|Pokémon}} {{bp|Clemont's Luxray|article}}.  The image that I referred to ''needs to go to that filename'', or another showing just the Pokémon without Serena.  ''That is why I suggested moving the one with Serena to another name and moving the new one into place.  The image is '''not''' at that location yet.''  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 22:04, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
:::Oh, so that's what you were talking about. I got confused. I do have the ability to move files but once I do so, I can't move the other one into the former file name since the redirect is in the way. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 22:15, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
::::Oh, so you can't move without a redirect as a Jr. Admin.?  I guess they differ between Archives and the Bulba wikis.  Can you find someone who can do that so that the upload credit is retained?  I'd just upload the image over it myself, but that same image being replaced can go in the article elsewhere, which I did, but it doesn't belong in the infobox no matter what the filename or policy is.  So it needs correcting ASAP.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 22:19, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
:::::Anyone in the full Administrator level or above can help you. {{u|Chosen}} or {{u|ht14}} are ideal users to go to get the problem solved. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 22:26, 4 June 2015 (UTC)
::::::Noticed you found a different image for the infobox and used that instead.  That works. LOL  I'll see whether the other image (the one that was attempted edited in before) can just be placed in the article.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 00:41, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
:::::::Glad that everyone's happy and the problem is officially solved. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 03:54, 5 June 2015 (UTC)
== Shuffle Sprites ==
Finally got permission to use these from the guy who ripped them. =)
So I'm uploading a few to test in a table and with a template I'm creating.  I've uploaded "Test000" right now.
While it will be used, I'm using temporary filenames.  Can you help make sure all the categorization and everything is good so I can apply it to the other test ones (three for the starters) to be uploaded later?  I'll also be looking to have them later moved once everything's ready to use in mainspace.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 20:43, 11 June 2015 (UTC)
:Will do. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 18:09, 12 June 2015 (UTC)
::I see no changes.  Does that mean it's good?  Was gone much of today and only did 70 or 80 today (to end of Hoenn, so 386 and all Megas for them done), so I'm getting close to uploading all of them anyway.  The concern is picking the right filenames, but now I've learned BT and Shuffle do differ, so Shuffle will be in the names.  That solves that problem!  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 02:28, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
:::Checked and they looked good. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 05:06, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
::::Fair enough!  I was debating adding a MissingNo. category for the question mark, but will add the Pokémon category for each later upload.  No need to do it yet, but eventually might not hurt to move the question mark to whatever name I give the images when I upload them (likely "000Shuffle" at this point, but that may change).  Can remove it from this discussion, so I've done that to prevent it redlinking.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 05:12, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
:::::Actually, that might be a bad convention.  Those with forms would look weird.  201AShuffle, 384-MShuffle, etc.  Maybe "Shuffle-" will lead as it seems more appropriate.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 05:14, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
::::::Please use the filename format of "Shuffle###", and use the new summary template, {{template|Shuffle}}, for the file summary. Thank you. - [[User:Kogoro|'''<span class="sc" style="color:#DA70D6;">Kogoro</span>''']] '''-''' [[User talk:Kogoro|'''<span class="sc" style="color:#FFB6C1;">Talk to me</span>''']] - 06:09, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
:::::::Looks like Kogoro went ahead and created the template on the Archives side, so I uploaded Bulbasaur to aid any other things that might be tried out.  Got up to Basculin and could continue to the end this evening, but depriving myself any further of sleep might be a bad idea. LOL  Will finish the last 169 and start uploading from Ivysaur tomorrow. =D  Also seems I don't need to add a category for each species as the template seems to do that, which is nice!  (That was the other reason I already added Bulbasaur, to see what the categories look like. LOL)  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 07:12, 13 June 2015 (UTC)
== Rahl ==
Can you keep an eye [[User talk:CycloneGU#Your offer|over here]]?  Rahl is trying to upload images, and I tried to leave something for him to fix to help him towards getting the uploading permissions over here (and learn from as he was fixing), but apparently my method wasn't...well, the right one, or something like that; I dunno, really. LOL  I thought intentionally leaving a few image licensings to fix would help, but they already got fixed by Kogoro before Rahl got to them.
Rahl has apparently set up a dropbox and will be linking them on my page, most likely, so can you check in there if you're around before I get back?  Not sure how many images he wants to upload, but giving him the chance to edit info on them himself would, I think, be a good learning tool.  If I'm wrong...there must be another way. LOL  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 15:33, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
:Sure will. There are some other stuff that Rahl could do in the Archives to-do list not related to uploading in the meantime. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 17:06, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
::If you have ideas to give him, by all means go ahead and discuss that with him!  I was just trying to help him learn how editing works over here. =)  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 22:02, 29 June 2015 (UTC)
== {{bp|My Pokémon Ranch}} Toys ==
Per [[User talk:Ching Yeung#Toys]], is there a way to get these images reduced down to just the icon with a transparent background?  A site I'm aware of does just that, but it charges money to download the results.  Obviously I don't wish to use that, but not sure if paint.net does this properly.
If it's possible to do, can you please do that and upload the new versions over what I just uploaded?  I asked not to use the images in the table yet, and that I'd get in touch with someone (obviously you, Abcboy is on vacation, hence why I stepped in, or I might ask him) to ask assistance with them.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 02:09, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
:You can use Photoshop to make them transparent. As you insisted, I'll get them transparent. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 04:56, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
::I hope I didn't sound like I was insisting on something, I just asked if you could do it. =)  And yeah, I don't have PSP and am not in a position to spend $70 on it right now (CAD cost), so yeah, I think he would appreciate if you can do that.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 04:59, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
:::Nah, it didn't sound like you were insisting on something, the term came to mind. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 17:24, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
::::I'll wait for you to update the images so that I can utilize them in the applicable table at Bulbapedia. =)  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 17:40, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
:::::Just want to point out that I'm not on a computer most of the time. I have to usually resort to a mobile device. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 20:46, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
::::::Oh.  Is there a better person to ask for assistance?  Abcboy is of course gone until the 4th.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 20:47, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
:::::::Asking me was the right thing. I've been working on getting the images transparent. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 23:01, 2 July 2015 (UTC)
::::::::Awesome so far.  I just see three more missing transparency (Poké Pendulum, Poké Rocket, and Snowman).  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 05:40, 3 July 2015 (UTC)
== Question ==
Can you please tell me what's different about this image: http://archives.bulbagarden.net/wiki/File:Serena_Pancham_Showcase_Poke_Puff_Baking.png and the first one I put? I don't know why PlayerKing95 did this, so I was hoping you could since you've been here longer. Is the new one better quality? Because it looks the same to me so...[[User:Handmaiden 101|Handmaiden 101]] ([[User talk:Handmaiden 101|talk]]) 00:13, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
:It's a small change but the version Playerking95 uploaded did not have the tvo7 logo. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 00:34, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
::OH! I see, I see. (phew) For a second there I thought it was a troll (because a user accused him/her of being one in his/her talk page) so thanks for the clear up! By the way, do you know where I can watch episodes without the logo? If not, thanks anyway![[User:Handmaiden 101|Handmaiden 101]] ([[User talk:Handmaiden 101|talk]]) 00:40, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
:::I'm used to users uploading newer versions of my images since many of them, I get from filb. Apparently, I don't know where you can watch the episodes without the logo. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 01:12, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
==Pokémon Ranch Images==
Ching Yeung can now upload his own images (I guess I found a good way to help someone get there this time LOL).  In the category, there are going to be six more needing transparency eventually; Abcboy has already updated the latest one.  Since it's known he'll be away from sometime tomorrow until the 13th, can you keep tabs if any new ones show up over the next week?  They will of course be uploaded without my aid now, so I'll just help make sure the table's in good order at the final usage destination. =)  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 04:42, 6 July 2015 (UTC)
:Will do. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 01:09, 7 July 2015 (UTC)
== Tagging redirects ==
When tagging file redirects for deletion, please make sure to also convert the image inclusion into a text link. Since adding the deletion tag already causes the redirect to stop functioning, it's not necessary for the full-size file to be loaded when someone goes to delete the redirect. Keep up the good work! - [[User:Kogoro|'''<span class="sc" style="color:#DA70D6;">Kogoro</span>''']] '''-''' [[User talk:Kogoro|'''<span class="sc" style="color:#FFB6C1;">Talk to me</span>''']] - 18:52, 9 July 2015 (UTC)

== Pokémon Ranch Screenshots ==
Hi Pattyman,
I've uploaded a few more screenshots. Only one left to go! Thanks for your help. [[User:Ching Yeung|Ching Yeung]] ([[User talk:Ching Yeung|talk]]) 03:47, 10 July 2015 (UTC)
:The ones you recently uploaded past the [[:File:Pokémon Ranch Bonfire Toy.png|Bonfire one]], I can handle them. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 04:12, 10 July 2015 (UTC)

::And for Ching, checking the category, I notice two more missing, not one; both the Poké Microphone and the Pokémon Pallet are missing.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 19:19, 11 July 2015 (UTC)
:::I left out the Bonfire one on purpose since I had trouble making it transparent because of the green showing in the fire itself. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 00:41, 12 July 2015 (UTC)
:::Yep, I've uploaded Microphone, but Pallet requires at least 500 Pokémon in the Ranch; that means I have to wait for 227 more days before I can get it. [[User:Ching Yeung|Ching Yeung]] ([[User talk:Ching Yeung|talk]]) 03:08, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

::::::Pattyman, I made a Bonfire attempt.  See [http://oi57.tinypic.com/21d4r3c.jpg this].  I used an online editor that makes guesses based on where you claim the intended image to be, and basically did a Printscreen instead of downloading the result, so it might work (or might not).  We might have to take some liberties with this particular item because it might be impossible to make it properly transparent.  Can you compare this with your attempts and see if you can fine-tune a final result?  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 05:33, 12 July 2015 (UTC)

== Test Template ==
Seems to work if your userpage here was replaced with the following:
:'''<nowiki>{{User:CycloneGU/Template:Softredirect|bp:User:Pattyman}}</nowiki>'''
Obviously, if moved, the template text will be standard.  Not my call, and doesn't affect me, just proposing this for Kogoro's soft redirect preference.  I tend to agree the immediate leaving of the site when trying to click the user page can be more negative if someone doesn't pick up on it.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 16:45, 15 July 2015 (UTC)
::It looks good but it's not giving me the option (i.e. yes or no options) on if I want to stay on my Archives user page or proceed to Bulbapedia. Kogoro may have an idea on the rest of the template. At least you got the basics down. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 16:59, 15 July 2015 (UTC)
:::Clicking the arrow takes the user to the Bulbapedia page (notice I used the "bp" in the link, not using it keeps someone at Archives).  Not clicking the arrow and clicking anywhere else stays at Archives.  Perhaps "Click here to go back to the previous page" might be useful.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 17:02, 15 July 2015 (UTC)

== DW Hoopa images request ==
Hello, I managed to find the Dream World-style artworks of both Hoopa forms from the Pokemon Global Link website and have the cropped images of them. The problem is that Iam unable to upload anything at the moment as Iam not autoconfirmed yet. Im sorry if this sounds like Im requesting favors on your busy schedule, but can you assist me on uploading the Hoopa images in this pokemon's image section of the archives and the pokemon dream world art gallery? I really wish I could do this on my own, but it seems that I have no power here to overcome my personal problem.
Here is the image links below:

== Trainer manga requests ==
Hey Pattyman, do you mind getting images of a few Trainers that were present in the Pokémon Adventures manga? There is the {{tc|Burglar}}, {{tc|Psychic}}, and {{tc|Tamer}} seen in {{bp|PS066}} (vol. 6) and the {{tc|Kimono Girl}} and {{tc|Firebreather}} in {{bp|PS034}} (vol. 3). {{bp|PS319}} (vol. 28) for the {{tc|Gentleman}}, {{tc|Poké Maniac}}, {{tc|Ruin Maniac}}, {{tc|Bug Catcher}}, and {{tc|Pokémon Breeder}} would be a nice bonus too =P I don't think it's necessary to have a "Pokémon" section - see what I did on the {{tc|Ace Trainer}} page for reference.
As far as virtual Trainers go, I'm not sure how far we want to go with this (I'm thinking Emerald arc right now), but I don't think it's completely necessary.
Feel free to let me know if you have any questions. Thanks in advance!! [[User:Ht14|<span style="color:#999999"><sup>'''''ht'''''</sup></span>]][[User talk:Ht14|<span style="color:#A68C21"><small>''14''</small></span>]] 03:00, 9 September 2015 (UTC)

== Pokémon Adventures Italian covers ==
Hi! I just noticed you changed the name of [[:File:Pokémon Adventures BW IT volume 3.png|this file]] to the current one. So, since I'm the one who usually upload those covers and since I have always used the naming "Pokémon Nero e Bianco manga vol n", I wanted to know how I should name the files I upload, because I think there should be a naming rule to follow for each file. --[[User:CiaobyDany|CiaobyDany]] ([[User talk:CiaobyDany|talk]]) 14:16, 21 September 2015 (UTC)
:The naming convention regarding the cover pages is found [[Archives:Manual of style#Cover pages|here]]. It officially went into effect in April of last year. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 18:18, 21 September 2015 (UTC)
Oh, I see, the fact is I began uploading those covers last year, so that naming convention was not in effect yet. Could you please move all other covers to the right place then? I'll remember to use the right naming when I'll upload the next one in October. (I also wanted to point out that the mobile version didn't let me save this edit, so I had to change back to desktop version, even though I'm quite sure you're not the one I should notice this to...) --[[User:CiaobyDany|CiaobyDany]] ([[User talk:CiaobyDany|talk]]) 11:20, 23 September 2015 (UTC)
== Generation I official artwork ==
{{bp|User:Pokeant/Artwork Sandbox}}<br />
[[Category talk:Ken Sugimori Pokémon artwork]] (RGB artwork heading)
Hello, could you have a look at these pages please? A number of us think that most of the Gen I Sugimori artwork could do with having their filenames changed to improve accuracy and prevent confusion. Would you be able to change them?
I'm also thinking about moving the "Art from Red/Green or TCG???" files to the "Art from Red and Blue" category instead of the "Art from Red and Green" category. Do you think this would be a good idea? --[[User:Purpleflamecyndaquil|Purpleflamecyndaquil]] ([[User talk:Purpleflamecyndaquil|talk]]) 14:27, 29 October 2015 (UTC)
:The first part sounds good in my opinion but I can't overwrite files that already exist on the Archives unless they were deleted (admins with a higher rank than me could do that) but you could swap them by reuploading them but that would require approval from the Editorial Board since they are widespread changes. The Art from Red and Green category exists because the Red an Green games came out first so I don't think it should be moved. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 00:46, 30 October 2015 (UTC)
== Pokémon Picross Trailer ==
Can you check that I gave a proper labeling to it?  I am going to use it on the page I'm setting up for Pokémon Picross that is newly coming out in December (announced today), and is unrelated to the 1999 title.  [[User:CycloneGU|CycloneGU]] ([[User talk:CycloneGU|talk]]) 04:30, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
:The licensing is fine but it was missing the categories (I'm aware about the problem you had though with the upload form) but ht14 took care of it. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 17:39, 13 November 2015 (UTC)
== Samurott's broken Seamitars ==
A tumblr page has images of the pokemon adventures manga showing that Samurott's Seamitars are capable of breaking like it's pre evo's Scalchops. http://kanyuu90.tumblr.com/tagged/Samurott
I cropped the image of what I needed, and need them to be posted in the article about [http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Scalchop_and_seamitar the Oshawott line's shell weapons.]
I'm still not autoconfirmed to post files at the moment.
Here is two files of the regular image size and another that I enlarged.

== Images that need moving ==
Good job on moving the images of Hoopa — The Mischief Pokémon and uploading better versions of them! There are still other anime images that have needed a move for a long time though. These are:
- Clemontic Gear XY085.png<br>
- Clemontic Gear XY087.png<br>
- Clemontic Gear XY088.png<br>
- The Lightning-fast Hero! Super Pikachu!!.png<br>
- Hoopa's Appear Plan 5.png
Perhaps you already took notice of them and this message is unnecessary, but I'd thought I'd point you on them. You could also wait on moving the (misnamed) Hoopa's Appear Plan shot since they're being dubbed starting this Friday and the filenames could be moved to the dub titles. I'll leave that up to the staff though. [[User:Blazingfist|Blazingfist]] ([[User talk:Blazingfist|talk]]) 18:19, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
:Thanks for pointing them out, including the other ones that needed to be moved. I took care of the images you requested on the talk page except for the Hoopa's Appear Plan one since pokemon.com is airing them soon. On another note, the dub names revealed in the Canadian airings or outside the US, I usually hold off on moving them until the episode aired in the US since there have been many instances of the names being played by ear lately. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 18:48, 9 December 2015 (UTC)
::There are two more images you can move. The first one is Pikachu Palace to its dub name, Pikachu Manor. The second is Mrs. Shellby, which I moved to Kimie because that's her actual Japanese, non-conjectural name. So you can move that image to that name. Thanks in advance! [[User:Blazingfist|Blazingfist]] ([[User talk:Blazingfist|talk]]) 17:21, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
:::Got them. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 18:05, 11 December 2015 (UTC)
::::The Hoopa's Appear Plan!! are dubbed (called Hoopa’s Surprise Ring Adventures according to pokemon.com) so I was able to move the last one to its proper name. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 19:55, 11 December 2015 (UTC)

== Help ==
I know Clemont's Chespin's Tackle is oversized and has a black thing/logo but can you help improve this picture? I tried to improve but having trouble. Sorry about how it's big by the way. I thought it be better, not that bigger.--[[User:JasonL|JasonL]] ([[User talk:JasonL|talk]]) 22:04, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
:It appears that Mikuri took care of it. Thanks for asking though. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 23:46, 2 February 2016 (UTC)
== Renaming PokeTV images ==
Instead of naming the images of PokeTV like they are done now, wouldn't it be better if they were named with a more consistent system?
Currently, the images are named according to the following system:
* For the program title card, ''PokeTV <program> Program.png''
* For featuring, ''PokeTV <featured thing>.png''
* For extra scenes, ''PokeTV extra scene<number>.png''.
They could be named systematically, as:
* ''PokeTV Program <program name>.png'' for the program title card
* ''PokeTV <epicode>.png'' for the featured thing
* ''PokeTV extra scene <epicode>.png'' for the extra scene.
This system of naming the images will be better in my opinion, as they can be found according to the episode code, not according to the featured thing. New files would follow this naming system while existing files would have to be renamed. What are your thoughts??? <small>→ ''signed comment from [[User talk:PikaTepig999|PikaTepig999]]''</small> 08:51, 5 February 2016 (UTC)
:The new system sounds good. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 18:26, 6 February 2016 (UTC)
::So will the images be renamed? <small>→ ''signed comment from [[User talk:PikaTepig999|PikaTepig999]]''</small> 12:00, 8 February 2016 (UTC)
:::They will. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 18:54, 9 February 2016 (UTC)
:::On second thought, I am waiting until the new season gets dubbed since Poké TV might be a different name and the programs might get different names too. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 18:56, 9 February 2016 (UTC)

As you are already well aware, user GenoWhirl made multiple inappropriate edits on your talk page. He has also uploaded ''extremely'' inappropriate versions of [[:File:XY106.png]], clogging the upload history in the process.

Éliphas model sheet 2 → Nikola model sheet 2<br>
Apologies for bothering you with this, I realize it's a lot of work and takes a lot of time, but I think it's something that needs to be done.
