Talk:Porygon

Shouldn't Porygon have it's on page? Charmander has one, so I think Porygon should have one too. I tried to create the page, but I couldn't because this page here exists. Can someone help? Tepig (talk) 14:25, 24 January 2016 (EST)

I am unsure why it doesn't already have one. Porygon is a significant element in 2 games and I think it's a trophy in Melee. If you want to create it, just overwrite it's current contents. Try to model the page after another Pokemon article like Charmander for example. Serpent King 14:30, 24 January 2016 (EST)

Checked, and it's not a trophy so...there's that. Serpent King 14:33, 24 January 2016 (EST)

I say go for it. Every other hazard on Saffron City has one. Miles (talk) 14:34, 24 January 2016 (EST)

Yeah, I agree. (And I'd do it but I'm kinda busy) ---Preceding unsigned comment added by you. Or maybe DatNuttyKid. 15:02, 24 January 2016 (EST)

Question

Not sure if this is the best place to ask, but whatever.

So I noticed that Serpent King added Porygon's artwork to the gallery. I went to the other Pokémon pages to see if they had the artwork too and maybe upload it, and a question popped up in my head: why is it that stage hazards and single-player enemies don't have their official art on their infoboxes? I mean, even Smash Tour items do, and I would consider hazards and enemies to be more important than them. Tepig (talk) 17:39, 24 January 2016 (EST)

In-game screenshots from smash belong in the infoboxes, that's just the way it is. All of the stage hazards/enemies should have origin art elsewhere though. Serpent King 17:43, 24 January 2016 (EST)

Also, it is acceptable for official Smash art to be in an infobox, but not outside sources, strike the base character pages. Serpent King 17:44, 24 January 2016 (EST)

But wouldn't this page technically be the "base character page" for Porygon? Well, it doesn't matter. I guess I will upload the rest of the artwork anyways. Tepig (talk) 17:48, 24 January 2016 (EST)

By base page, I mean like Mario as opposed to Mario (SSB) (the smash art from smash games go to the relevant page, so therefore the base page gets non-smash art in the infobox) Serpent King 17:50, 24 January 2016 (EST)

Well, this makes sense for playable characters, but what about assists and other characters? Take Ashley for example. She is a character important to Smash that only has a single page instead of multiple ones, and her infobox has art from WarioWare, with her gameplay screenshots in the gallery. However, Porygon is the reverse: the gameplay one is in the infobox and the official art is in the gallery. Shouldn't both be the same? Sorry if I'm being annoying, I have an OCD for consistency, as you can probably tell from some of my edits. :P Tepig (talk) 17:58, 24 January 2016 (EST)
