Talk:Pokémon 3rd Generation

Article Discussion

I agree that the different generations should be grouped together, particularly when related to hacking, but I'm not sure how. You may have noticed the many updates I've been doing on DC the last few days, especially on the Pokémon-related articles.

You can see an example of the set-up I've established here: Pokémon Second Generation (a Disambiguation page), but I'm starting to feel that the "(Official Game/s)" and "(Hacking)" differentiation isn't necessary, since it creates confusion among articles. If anything, we could remove the various "Official Game/s" and add some of that information to "(Hacking)" articles, since my point was to provide information on the actual games and their features, which you could then move over to the technical aspects of them on the "(Hacking)" articles.

I'd love to hear any opinion, since without a standard for articles I'm afraid to move on too much more. Redstar 19:27, 5 June 2009 (UTC)

You could have a part "About the game" (or in Pokémon's case "games"). For example, the page for, say, Super Mario Bros could have headers (or subpages if it's too large) with a summary of the game itself with any technical data like the NES's mapper used as before, followed by the romhacking data. --Kawa 08:25, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Okay, I just took a look at that 2nd gen example, and that's close enough to what I just said. --Kawa 08:27, 6 June 2009 (UTC)

Looked around some more, and I stick with the idea that the Pokémon games (per generation) are too damn similar to warrant seperate pages. The specials (Yellow, Crystal, Emerald and Platinum) may be quite different, but most of that is only plot and some added content. --Kawa 08:31, 6 June 2009 (UTC)
