Talk:Pink Fuzzy

Why was this article unstruck through on PipeProject:Paper Mario Enemies? It has a complete tattle, picture and background info. Wayoshi ( T&middot;C&middot;@ ) 19:44, 16 September 2006 (EDT)

Pink Fuzzy
It would definitely make sense to move this article to Pink Fuzzy. If the enemy was only used in two games and had different names in those games, then the newest game's name should be chosen for the article. It's the same case as with Green Fuzzy. 2:35, 27 May 2018 (CEST)
 * Are they really the same species? If the only trait they have in common is color and that they are both derived from Fuzzies, I feel like we can split it. Flower Fuzzies are pretty clearly defined by their ability to drain, well, Flowers. 208.95.51.107 01:06, 19 October 2018 (EDT)
 * From what I can tell, the Japanese name is still Flower Chorobon. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 02:27, 19 October 2018 (EDT)
 * So, someone that is ranked should rename over redirect. -- 02:46, 19 October 2018 (EDT)
 * Maybe it should be left like that? -- 04:41, 20 October 2018 (EDT)
 * The current English name is Pink Fuzzy, so no, it should be moved. Please stop second-guessing yourself on everything. Don't mean to be rude, but it seems like you're just trying to bump subtly. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 05:12, 20 October 2018 (EDT)
 * How can i renname it over redirect then? Only ranked user can? -- 05:13, 20 October 2018 (EDT)
 * Just put a delete template on the redirect. The rest will follow. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 05:34, 20 October 2018 (EDT)
 * I just checked some Japanese sites, and the SPM version is called ピンクチョロボン, or Pink Chorobon. --Kahran042 (talk) 12:54, August 7, 2019 (EDT)
 * Can you confirm it from the game itself? We've had Japanese websites give incorrect info in the past. Barring that, the internal name in The Thousand-Year Door (c_chorobon_f) and Super Paper Mario (e_chorobon_f) is basically the same last I checked, so the rename seems to be due to game's lack of FP.

 * Here's a video showing the Japanese card, with the name ピンクチョロボン clearly visible. --Kahran042 (talk) 15:16, August 7, 2019 (EDT)

So they have different names in Japanese and English, and they attack differently between games. At this point, their only similarity is appearance. I think these should be split. 16:36, February 27, 2020 (EST)
 * Proposal, or are we all in pre-emptive agreement to just do? Trig - 16:44, February 27, 2020 (EST)
 * I think a proposal's probably the safest option. 14:58, February 28, 2020 (EST)

Split Flower Fuzzy and Pink Fuzzy
The only reason why these enemies share a page is because the wiki assumed SPM's Pink Fuzzies were a rename, similar to what happened to various items in the same game. To be fair, it makes sense: both enemies look identical, and since SPM doesn't have FP, it's logical that Flower Fuzzies would get a name change and lose their main gimmick. However, considering they also have different Japanese names, it seems more likely to me that this is simply a reused design (albeit probably as a callback to TTYD), but not the same enemy. At this point, the only thing these two Fuzzies have in common is their color, which doesn't make them the same thing (see Jungle Fuzzy and Gold Fuzzy).
