[http://archives.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=File:BW064.png&diff=272511&oldid=267219 This version] of BW064 header was indeed better than the one we had earlier. Yes, there was a logo but there was a huge difference in the quality of both revisions. So, a "bad image" template is rather preferred in that case, instead of reverting it. <span style="color:#00FF00">♫♪</span>[[User:Adyniz|<span style="color:#6699FF;">'''エイデ'''</span>]][[User talk:Adyniz|<span style="color:#99CCFF;">'''ィニズ'''</span>]]<span style="color:#00FF00">♪♫</span> 12:17, 20 January 2012 (UTC)

As a general rule, move images from the anime shouldn't be animated. A still screenshot or two is more than enough for the vast majority. Even three still images is fine. It's not until the move gets really complex that we should consider animation. <span class="sc">[[User:Werdnae|<span style="color:#2D4B98;">Werdnae</span>]]</span> <small>[[User talk:Werdnae|<span style="color:#009000;">(talk)</span>]]</small> 05:48, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

:True but I'm not planning on animating them all, any of them that are complex as you mentioned. What about ones that take up the whole template (the maximum is four images)? [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] 06:03, 23 January 2012 (UTC)

My good Bulbapedia friend Littlmiget123 is currently bringing up to code the Electric Tale of Pikachu move manga templates, many of the are being left without any images. Could you upload those which are missing and those which will be missing after they are created in the near future? Thanks.<br>Plus, some Adventures manga templates are also missing images. I don't know which manga you have access to, but I tell you this: I hate seeing any pages in the Category of "Moves used in the manga needing images". I know, it's a lot of articles, but do the best you can. Thank you once again. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] 09:20, 5 February 2012 (UTC)<br>I already left this same message for Ataro, but since he hasn't done anything yet and I'm a bit of a hasty, I also left this message for you.

Not all gifs need to be made into pngs.

:Shoot, I didn't know those maps were supposed to stay as gifs. Oh well, better luck next time (for me).

I really don't think this image is properly labeled.
 
Also, some of the Mirage Pokémon's heads that appear over Mewtwo's body are missing, unlabeled, or unrecognizable. [[:File:Mirage Arbok.png|This one]] has an unknown head under Arbok (Archives don't have this, but I do). [[:File:Mirage Tyranitar.png|This one]] appears to have Rhyhorn under Tyranitar. [[:File:Mirage Walrein.png|This one]] has Walrein and some kind of toothless Ivysaur-looking thing. [[:File:Mirage Onix.png|This one]] has two unknown faces at the very bottom (the scene's pan starts right there), and its upper torso (Archives don't have, I do) has two other vaguely reptilian heads. Basically, should I upload those, and what would I name them? Rhyhorn is the only dead ringer among the missing heads. --<font face="Segoe UI"><span style="text-shadow:grey 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em">[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="red">IWanna</font>]]BeThe[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="white">VeryBest</font>]]</span></font> 03:14, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
:I would like to thank you for the effort you put in to getting the images. If I remember correctly, Gyarados didn't use Hydro Pump in the Togepi episode and the only episode Hydro Pump was used beside the Mirage Pokémon special was in ''Cerulean Blues'', so the image definitely shows the scene from Cerulean Blues. As for the Mirage Pokémon's heads, I would only upload the known Pokémon's heads. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 06:08, 9 December 2013 (UTC)
::You're very welcome. I forgot to ask 3 other things. Is there any need for a pic of Oak's Dragonite using Hyper Beam?
::Mewtwo is listed as using both {{bp|Focus Punch#In the anime|Focus Punch}} and {{bp|Mega Punch#In the main series|Mega Punch}}, but of the 3 times it punches, only one is said aloud (the last, being Mega Punch). Focus Punch's description says it has light blue light and leaves a trail behind, while Mega Punch is white. [[:File:Mirage Mewtwo Mega Punch.png|The pic]] I uploaded would then be Focus, not Mega. Despite this specific punch being the second, meaning it was not named, it looks a lot like the final punch (Mega) instead of what it's labeled (Focus). The ''first'' punch, however, is much different, happening right after Dragonite's Hyper Beam. Mewtwo glows blue, flies up to Dragonite, and punches it, no white light at all. It's either Focus Punch or just a non-specific blow, just like the tail smack it does afterward (which ''isn't'' Iron Tail since it never glows white). I have pics of all 3 punches if you'd like.
::Lastly, since {{bp|Mirage Pokémon#Moves used|the article's section}} uses wikicode I'm not familiar with, I think you should handle that. Many moves are out of order, so I listed them here, along with their images:
::Mewtwo: [[:File:Mirage Mewtwo Shadow Ball.png|Shadow Ball]], [[:File:Mirage Mewtwo Barrier.png|Barrier]], Focus Punch (?), [[:File:Mirage Entei Flamethrower.png|Flamethrower]], [[:File:Mirage Mewtwo Rayquaza Hyper Beam.png|Hyper Beam]], [[:File:Mirage Mewtwo Iron Tail.png|Iron Tail]], [[:File:Mirage Mewtwo Mega Punch.png|Mega/Focus Punch]], [[:File:Mirage Tropius SolarBeam.png|Solar Beam]], [[:File:Mirage Mewtwo elemental attacks.png|Bullet Seed/Hydro Pump/Psybeam/Thunderbolt/Ice Beam]], [[:File:Mirage Mewtwo Quick Attack.png|Quick Attack]], [http://archives.bulbagarden.net/media/upload/archive/f/fd/20131209015429%21Mirage_Mewtwo_Mega_Punch.png Mega Punch].

:::Focus and Mega Punch were used simultaneously as a combo at the same time, so the image is fine as is. Still, if Focus Punch wasn't called out, than it was an unidentified punch. As for Oak's Dragonite with Hyper Beam, you can upload it if you want but we do have a few AG images of Hyper Beam. I am going to take care of the coding for you.

::::Used at the same time? Says who? I only put the / there because I didn't know which was being used. Not that it matters since it's titled "Mega Punch" and looks just like the announced Mega Punch. For that matter, how do we know that Steel Wing, Hydro Pump, Thunder, Thunderbolt, Solar Beam, and the Houndoom/Entei Flamethrowers are correct? They're never named in the dub, at least. Lastly, why are the attacks that transform Mewtwo's hand/s in the Other section? Wouldn't they belong more in Mewtwo's? Why is Solar Beam in both? --<font face="Segoe UI"><span style="text-shadow:grey 0.1em 0.1em 0.1em">[[User:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="red">IWanna</font>]]BeThe[[User talk:IWannaBeTheVeryBest|<font color="white">VeryBest</font>]]</span></font> 07:57, 11 December 2013 (UTC)
:::::Forget what I said regarding the punches being used at the same time then. As for the moves not being named in the dub, if they were not named in the original version, feel free to remove them. The attacks from Mewtwo's hand are in the other section because the other Pokémon were also shown using it and Solar Beam was shown in both because it depicted both Mewtwo and Tropius using it.

== Rude? ==
 
I don't get what was so rude in the remark that you deleted. You made a mistake, admit it. I didn't say anything rude to you - just advised you to avoid such mistakes in the future. I didn't scold you or anything. I just told you that you make a mistake because... you made one. Don't act like a know-it-all if you're not sure about something. There's nothing rude in proving someone wrong in a polite way. Actually, what YOU did was rude because you refused someone's good advice despite being obviously wrong. Everyone who could read Kana could prove you wrong easily. Please be more humble, it'll really help you in your future life, believe me. --[[User:Maxim|Maxim]] ([[User talk:Maxim|talk]]) 18:16, 31 December 2013 (UTC)

Bless you. I have been wanting to replace those gif images since time but I have been too lazy to scan the pages myself ^^' [[Special:Contributions/Zesty Cactus|--]][[User:Zesty Cactus|<span style="color:#006400">'''Zesty'''</span>]][[User talk:Zesty Cactus|<span style="color:#3CB371">'''Cactus'''</span>]] 01:52, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
:You're welcome. Some of the png header images are in Japanese and a few jpgs are in English so I'll leave it up to you regarding that. [[User:Pattyman|Pattyman]] ([[User talk:Pattyman|talk]]) 02:09, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
::My preference for manga images is png over jpg when available, language doesn't really matter if it's Japanese, English or another language as long as the scans are good quality.
