The following was on the talk page of the Shellos article and is still relevant, IMO. 69.182.79.35 09:04, 28 June 2007 (UTC)
This may have been known for a while, but not until now have I actually been interested. My brother claims he actually found the alternate Shellos outside the Valley Windworks while training his Buizel a while back. He mentioned it to me, who, at the time, didn't know about the third forms, and I told him to catch it because I realized that it was the Eastern Shellos with the Western's coloring (which, according to a sprite sheet I later saw on Serebii.net, is how these "third forms" appear when fought). He instead killed it for Experience Points for his Buizel. Then I forgot about it and learned about the alternate forms.
Just now, he reminded me he'd seen a third form of Shellos and that he saw its sprite on PokemonElite2000 as the second frame. I looked it up, and sure enough, the second male frames for Shellos and Gastrodon are, in fact, the front sprites for these betas, just as I saw them on Serebii.net -- the Eastern forms with the Western coloring. Don't believe me? Check for yourself.
If my brother did actually find this third form of Shellos, it was likely a fluke or a glitch, but this could very well be a revolution for the world of Shellos and Gastrodon. These third forms could very well be catchable. Thank you for your time. I hope that these "third" front and back sprites found in the coding can be mentioned in the article.

It's a shiny pokemon
I think we should make seperate articles for the pokemon cuz da udaz do, and it's stupid to put em togetha and sum don't even hav any info unda dem —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.150.132.190 ( talk)
Surely it was better with individual and comprehensive articles instead of this horrific abortion. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 144.139.79.11 ( talk)
I have to agree with the others. The individual articles were much better because they contained much more information than they do now. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 24.98.152.78 ( talk)
This was an utterly horrible decision. All the other articles actually included stuff besides "Oh, gee, Purugly is a pokemon that resembles a cat! Moving on!"... 70.44.146.95 21:28, 30 June 2007 (UTC)
Incidentally, about the songs-- There are enough reliable secondary sources that talk about the composition and reception of several individual songs. Not so for each individual Pokémon. -- The Raven's Apprentice ( PokéNav| Trainer Card) 03:08, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
Why did all these Pokёmon articles have to be merged? In my opinion, they were fine as their own individual articles like every other Pokēmon. Ekansonic55 02:38, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
Okay then. At least, could you people add information that was in the individual articles? Such as stats, abilities, etc?
And just a note, no poke'mon is really a "minor character". They all have some role in the games, and the anime. Except maybe Porygon. Ekansonic55 03:16, 17 July 2007 (UTC)
As this list is supposed to be a prototype, and the articles were merged due to referencing problems in the first place, it ought to have perfect and thorough references. As of now, it has none. -- The Raven's Apprentice ( PokéNav| Trainer Card) 15:42, 1 July 2007 (UTC)
Added the Links to their pages. - I PWN U ALL 05:16, 5 July 2007 (UTC)
This really seems kind of pointless and all around irritating to me. Not all of us fans use Bulbapedia, as it's not very easily navigable to some extent, and it's also extremely slow compared to this site.
I'm sure I'm not the only one that thinks the pokemon need to just stick with their own page for each species. I can imagine many others were as stunned as I was when they went to look up information on a Pokemon and they suddenly got some half-arsed list that tells absolutely nothing. I mean, it doesn't even give height/weight information anymore! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 67.140.12.65 ( talk)
I fully agree. What is with this!? Poke'mon each deserve their own articles, to give as much info on each poke'mon as much as possible. Who cares if Honchkrow and Loppunny are "Minor Characters"? A lot of information about them was simply lost. Ekansonic55 04:00, 10 July 2007 (UTC)
I agree with the statement that Pokemon each deserve their own articles. And I actually have clicked on Lopunny and Honchcrow and Aipom and Abra and so on! Just because some of you find it useless doesn't mean we all do. Some of us actually use that information. And why do the individual articles bother the lot of you doing the lists anyway? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Thedarkchao93 ( talk • contribs).

Is the part about the Gengar/Skuntank bowling trophy true? I've beaten PMD2 and I see no clue of that. Is it after you get Master Rank? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 12.210.168.207 ( talk) 18:36, 22 May 2008 (UTC)
