[edit] The Yoshi glitch

I've seen this done, but I've honestly found no proof that anyone on the net has photographic evidence, much less remembers it. I have a magazine somewhere that details how to accomplish and provides picture evidence, but that was like... 8 years ago. I really do not want to search for this, but if anyone can find it, I think we should put it in the article. 76.177.216.62 18:13, 20 October 2006 (UTC)

You must mean what is described as the "Yoshi glitch" here on this page. Sounds like total BS to me, and hardly worthy of mention; it's just another rumor. I wonder what causes people to come up with these things. --Brandon Dilbeck 20:18, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
Yoshi was never put into the game. Come on!! The divisions that work with Yoshi and Pokémon don't even work together on the same games. -SaturnYoshi THE VOICES 22:21, 20 October 2006 (UTC)
Along these lines, I have removed a section from the article:

A video game magazine once claimed that it is possible to evolve Dragonite into Yoshi using a Fire Stone item in Pokemon Red and Blue. This however has been proven false, "Dragonite doesn't evolve".

It's not even fun information. --Brandon Dilbeck 01:47, 10 November 2006 (UTC)

[edit] Confusion on HM 02 "Fly"

"Unlike the legendary Pokémon such as Moltres, Zapdos and Articuno and other normal-bird Pokémon such as Pidgey, Spearow, Doduo and more have the ability to learn "Fly" from HM02 in Red, Blue and Yellow version, except Dragonite can't learn "Fly" in this version, but in Crystal version, Dragonite now can learn this technical skill "Fly" in order to fly over the world." In that section, "this version" doesn't have an antecedent, so , with Red, Blue, Green, Yellow, Gold, Silver, Ruby, Sapphire, Emerald, FireRed, LeafGreen, Coloseum, XD, Diamond and Pearl unmentioned, "this version" could refer to any combination or single game of 15 possiblities. IN SHORT: I'm confused to which version(s) Dragonite can or cannot learn Fly. I am aware how easy it is to look up, but this kinda needs fix'n -Melles Lord of Badgers

This is the exact text from the page: "Dragonite are very loyal to any trainer they find worthy of acceptance." Loyal to someone you choose≠slave.—ウルタプ 01:05, 22 January 2007 (UTC)
Yes... Just ask Dragonlite. (That's my Dragonite... Yeah, I know, quite the pun, isn't it?) --Luigifan 12:16, 26 January 2007 (UTC)
