Dick_Chappy: @Anonymous: Phael was given a C&D that was just the owners of 'That show which can not be named' being butthurt, but it was described as a way to prevent children from seeing porn before the legal age or some shite like that.
Ricky_Roma: @Kudryavka: 1. This specific Porkyman, haven't kept up on the series for a decade.
2. I'm ashamed to admit I only learnt of MissingNo about 2 years ago.
Anonymous12: @Ricky_Roma: This specific Porkyman is Shuckle from Gen 2, a defensive powerhouse, but it's poor speed stats, attack stats and move pool make it kinda hard to use in battle.
Farfegnugen: @Dick_Chappy: Even though if you look by character, like Pikachu or Ash_Katchum, it's still easy to find. I already complained about it a month or two ago so there's no point in opening old wounds.
The only Porkymook I've ever liked was scyther, He hates the colour red, his arms are fucken razor sharp blades and he raped Misty....whilst Ash & Brock watched.
Flashlight237: Well, shit. Here we are, with a pic of the most defensive porkyman in the games (both of it's defensive stats are at 230, compared to Mega Aggron with one defense stat at 230).
jubilation_t_cornpone: Yeah, it's not as if the alternate tag doesn't find the pics just as well. Or people don't know what you are talking about when you use the alternate name in a comment.
Anonymous18: I'm pretty sure the process of finding and selecting a featured image involves the following:
1.) open image folder
2.) mace self in eyes
3.) clamor for mouse and keyboard
Anonymous19: @glassfragment: Them Nientendop lawyers can and WILL shut this shit down. I also changed the name of the company, in case the company's name is on the list of banned words.
jubilation_t_cornpone: @glassfragment: Yes, it is filter bypassing. Your argument makes no sense. The "actual proper name of the show" is exactly what we are not supposed to use, even more than the more convenient version.
Do NOT bypass the filter. The next time you WILL be banned.
Do you not understand that this isn't our idea?
Tell you what. If you will agree to pay all of the legal costs of a lawsuit, plus all the damages that are awarded to Nintendo, we will let you use the name. Do we have a deal? Need a signed, notarized document from you.
glassfragment: @jubilation_t_cornpone: Alright, hold your horses, I wasn't trying to rustle any jimmies here.
Honestly, adding the accent to the é has become muscle memory to me when talking about the series anywhere else, so that's what I meant by "is it really circumventing". Sure, it'll get wordfiltered if you're "lazy about it" and type it with the plain e, but anyone who's not already in the know could easily just type the show's name with accent intact and be none the wiser.
I legit missed the part about it being a legality issue first time around. For the longest time until the other day, I honestly thought it was just some shitty joke wordfilter that happens here from time to time. So yeah, since I don't really go in-depth in this site's community, I missed the memo where the show could not be named, and simply wondered why the heck it was filtered into something that brings up the mental image of some kinda dumb Looney Tunes superhero, but otherwise didn't think much of it. I would have preferred "Pokeymans" myself, but eh, that's just a personal issue I suppose.
But I guess ignorance is no proper excuse, so my bad on that, then.
All in all though, I find it curious how the name of the series is filtered at risk of "omg lawsuit", yet all of the names of the 'mons themselves are left intact. Y'know, like no one would ever find this place while searching for, say, Pikachu.
Let alone the fact that Pokeymans is, by my knowledge, the only series that even gets this treatment here. I mean sure, it's the biggest tag on the site, but Nintendo never made a fuss about Mario, Zelda or Star Fox?
Ahwell. Far be it from me to ponder logic on here. //shrug//
jubilation_t_cornpone: That is the only name they demanded be changed. Not being insane, we did not volunteer to change all of the others, or those of any other series. We did what they demanded. We have not heard any more about it, so apparently they are satisfied.
You'll have to ask Nintendo your questions about why just that one name. My personal assessment is that they are not right in the head. Any lack of logic is entirely theirs.
jubilation_t_cornpone: In case you hadn't noticed, porkyman is also the tag. We don't do "shitty joke wordfilters" with tags. Just with overused memes.
glassfragment: Yeah, that's kinda what I figured had happened, just found it curious, is all.
Not planning to wake sleeping dogs or anything by asking them, haha.
glassfragment: And yeah, I don't recall there being any sort of precedence to Pokeymans as far as wordfiltering tags is concerned (aside from disambiguation purposes), so you'll understand if the first thing to come to mind wouldn't have been "Oh, they would never do such a thing if it's a tag".
glassfragment: ...Although I guess enforcing the reverse works by the same logic.
To sum it up, I was thinking "They never joke-filtered tags before, there's gotta be a first for everything I guess!", rather then "They never did before, so they probably have a good reason".
But eh, shouldn't drag this out so much. Misconceptions were made.
Guess I'll end this with the other part of the comment that got deleted upon my inial screw-up...
Anonymous20: "Take care of this Porkyman for a while" Finally got what that means after playing Porkyman Crystal and meeting that dude who gives me the Porkyman (Yeah im playing this game on 2014 cuz i never finished it as a kid and until now had the chance to play it again XP)
AnOniMouse: Good luck, nameless man. Give her time and she shall be queen of the universe. God help us all then, the Rollout will shatter worlds, and with Withdraw, she could trundle along the surface of a dark corpse of a star...
It's Super Effective!
