Because male and female Byleth have different names in Japanese, the Japanese website lists out both names. I'm pretty sure that's a first for the series, as Alph is never named on the website. However, in order to avoid an edit war with SuperSmashTurtles, I'm going to ask: is this sort of thing notable? [[Special:Contributions/72.203.118.154|72.203.118.154]] 01:13, January 21, 2020 (EST)

I would consider this first to be notable, but I am not the expert in this scenario. I reckon it's not the end of the world as is, since the trivia already mentions the different Japanese names. [[User:IMDCombee|IMDCombee]] ([[User talk:IMDCombee|talk]]) 13:35, May 21, 2022 (EDT)
:This post is over 2 years old and both names are already listed on the page. Also, the trivia point in question as been re-added since this post. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 13:48, May 21, 2022 (EDT)

Didn't Greninja, Robin, Lucina, debut on the 3DS, and then have their Smash debut in Smash for 3DS (and Wii U)? [[User:Mudd|Mudd]] ([[User talk:Mudd|talk]]) 10:56, January 29, 2020 (EST)

Robin and Corrin's pages frequently use they/them/their, but for some reason Byleth uses he/his. Why?<small>—Preceding unsigned comment added by [[User:2.26.12.58|2.26.12.58]] ([[User talk:2.26.12.58|talk]] • [[Special:Contributions/2.26.12.58|contribs]]) 17:45, February 18, 2020 (EST)</small>
Robin and Corrin's pages frequently use they/them/their, but for some reason Byleth uses he/his. Why?
:I've quickly looked through the characters that have multiple genders ([[Corrin (SSBU)]], [[Robin (SSBU)]], [[Pokémon Trainer (SSBU)]], [[Villager (SSBU)]], [[Wii Fit Trainer (SSBU)]], and [[Inkling (SSBU)]] (and technically [[Bowser Jr. (SSBU)]])) and found that most of them do use gender-neutral pronouns at some point and default pronouns at roughly the same frequency, but they omit pronouns much more often. Byleth seems to be the only one that uses his default pronoun more, however omitting is still much more common. I won't make a call on 'default', 'neutral', or 'none at all', just putting out an observation. --[[User:CanvasK|CanvasK]] ([[User_talk:CanvasK|talk]]) 10:47, February 20, 2020 (EST)
::There ''is'' a consensus: "[[SmashWiki:Manual of Style#Writing Style|When discussing these characters in the context of their home series, it is acceptable to refer to them with gender-neutral language. When discussing these characters as Smash Bros. fighters, it is preferred to use the gender of the default costume. In either case, omitting pronouns entirely is a valid style as long as the text does not become unnecessarily clunky.]]" Any articles that don't follow this should be fixed.

== Bind Pose ==
 
I think we should have an image on the a pose along with terry [[User:MeleeBoi|MeleeBoi]] ([[User talk:MeleeBoi|talk]]) 09:31, February 25, 2020 (EST)
 
== What Sakurai Said ==
 
I completely get that we shouldn't make mention of any fan hate aimed at Byleth or the Fire Emblem series, but now Sakurai himself has come out and agreed that there are "Too many Fire Emblem Characters". Do you think that this at least is noteworthy and should be mentioned? [[Special:Contributions/73.40.56.255|73.40.56.255]] 11:25, March 5, 2020 (EST) SquireTurnbolt
 
That could be good to mention, but maybe on the Fire Emblem universe page [[User:MeleeBoi|MeleeBoi]] ([[User talk:MeleeBoi|talk]]) 09:28, March 13, 2020 (EDT)
