When is the tattle log ever called the bestiary?
I am Confused 23:19, 26 April 2007 (EDT)

um....never. -- Son of Suns
Then shouldn't we move this to Paper Mario: The Thousand-Year Door (Tattle Log)?
I am Confused 17:51, 27 April 2007 (EDT)
No, because it also lists the stats for the enemy. Metsfan1001 20:26, 25 August 2011 (EDT)

Images?Edit

Why are we linking the images externally? Shouldn't we upload them all here? - Cobold (talk · contribs) 12:12, 3 September 2007 (EDT)

If noone has objections, I would like to use this style for the table. We would need the upload the images as they appear in the Tattle Log. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 09:41, 4 September 2007 (EDT)
No objections? Then here we go... - Cobold (talk · contribs) 10:54, 8 September 2007 (EDT)

Missing ImagesEdit

The following images are missing. Note that the images should show the enemies as they appear in the Tattle Log.

Basically, we're missing all Boos, all Ruff Puffs, all X-Nauts and a few other enemies. - Cobold (talk · contribs) 07:29, 9 September 2007 (EDT)

Also, if humanly possible, an image of the Shadow Queen in her Peach form, which only appears when tattling her during the battle. Just thinking... - Cobold (talk · contribs) 14:31, 29 September 2007 (EDT)
Noone has an idea how to get the missing images? I tried a Google image search for "Paper Mario 2" "Tattle Log", but instead of what I look for, I get sick images from DeviantArt. <.< - Cobold (talk · contribs) 16:26, 28 January 2008 (EST)

You Forgot SomethingEdit

You forgot that goombas live in RIVERSIDE STATION. They're seen in the room next to the room with the Ultra Boots.   BoygeyPumpkineer  

Construction?Edit

This is complete, isnt it? --  The 'Shroom 16:20, 15 October 2009 (EDT)

If it has 124 entries, then it is. -   Gabumon(talk) 16:26, 15 October 2009 (EDT)

OrderEdit

Should the Tattle Log be in alphabetical order or numerical order? User:Dry Paratroopa/sig

I organized the Paper Mario bestiary alphabetically, and I don't see why it shouldn't be organized in that way here as well. People are more likely to know where a particular enemy would be located in the alphabet than to recall their in-game number. Redstar 17:58, 25 December 2009 (EST)
Then what am I going to do with the numerical version I made that I worked on for days? Could we have two pages; one for each?User:Dry Paratroopa/sig
Maybe there's some coding where you can choose whether you want to read it in alphabetical or numerical order. Ask one of the sysops and maybe it's possible. Redstar 23:43, 25 December 2009 (EST)
Maybe... but if there is, I'd have to do the same with the original one for Paper Mario. But that's okay.User:Dry Paratroopa/sig
There isn't a numerical order for the enemies in the original Paper Mario, so that wouldn't be necessary. Redstar 20:09, 26 December 2009 (EST)

What if we put both in and just have hide/show coding for each? Redstar 04:42, 27 December 2009 (EST)

I don't think it'd be worth it to go through all the extra trouble just to have two different ways to sort the log. I think sorting it alphabetically is best, so long as each enemy's row has its respective tattle log number. — Stooben Rooben 04:53, 27 December 2009 (EST)

WhyEdit

Why do we need the tattle log screenshots. Couldn't we just use the in-game sprites instead because the tattle log screenshot have bad quality.-- YoshiGo99  23:08, 4 March 2011 (EST)

You have a point. :) Tattle-log screenshots do have bad quality compared to teh sprites.   BoygeyPumpkineer  

I believe that we only have the tattle log images so that's why we're using them.   Yoshiwaker File:Rayquaza.png 12:33, 18 May 2011 (EDT)

Now we're looking for sprites. Sprites that aren't here are:

  • Dark Puff
  • Ice Puff
  • The Armored Harriers
  • Magnus Von Grapple 2.0
  • And the Shadow Queen

Better posesEdit

Some of these images need better poses. For example, the Macho Grubba one is terrible. I will give a list of what I think need better poses:

  • Big Bandit (hands shouldn't be outwards, shouldn't be smiling like that)
  • Dark Koopa (mouth shouldn't be open, body looks a bit off)
  • Dark Paratroopa (mouth shouldn't be open, facing the wrong way)
  • Elite X-Naut (body is leaning back; regular X-Naut's pose isn't like that)
  • Hammer Bro. (hammer shouldn't be upwards, shouldn't be angry)
  • Koopa Troopa (strange-looking, the KP Koopa nearby doesn't look like that)
  • KP Paratroopa (mouth shouldn't be open, facing the wrong way)
  • Lakitu (shouldn't be ducking inside the cloud)
  • Macho Grubba (looks nothing like his idle in battle)
  • Magikoopa (hand holding wand shouldn't be facing up)
  • Paratroopa (mouth shouldn't be open)
  • Red Bones (facing the wrong way)
  • Shady Koopa (facing the wrong way)
  • Shady Paratroopa (mouth shouldn't be open)

Yes, you may think I am a bit picky, but I think we should have the best images possible for these enemies. I have already started fixing poses, though. I fixed Dark Boo and Piranha Plant (not Pale Piranha, the one in the Pit of 100 Trials)

Once again, sorry if I am being picky. But we need good images. --PyroGuy6   I gotta vacuum tonight.   08:27, 2 June 2011 (EDT)

We are trying to get the best quality images. Some images don't work well like the Koopas shells, most of them are straight up and not leaning like they should. If will tilt the arms of Hammer Bro. And Magikoopa the quality turns bad.. YoshiGo99 

I don't get it. :(Edit

Y R we going back to the tattle log screenshots? Most users agreed that we use sprites because they have good quality.   BoygeyPumpkineer  

Fuzzy HordeEdit

Would Fuzzy Horde fit here? It has its own HP, moves, tattle, etc., but it does not have an entry in the in-game tattle log and thus isn't listed here. -- A gossip-loving Toad (Talk) 03:45, 18 August 2016 (EDT)

Solved. Megadardery (talk) added it. -- A gossip-loving Toad (Talk) 10:16, 18 August 2016 (EDT)

BestiaryEdit

Why did you change the bestiary? I mean, I like the new stats and all, but the last one was designed so you can sort the enemies so you can see them in a different order.-- 16:51, 29 August 2016 (EST)
The preceding unsigned comment was added by 72.84.230.129 (talk).

Missing Immunities and WeaknessesEdit

Does anyone know why these aren't listed here for each enemy? They're in the original Paper Mario's bestiary, and I find them very helpful and informative. --Kimimaru (talk) 03:27, 12 September 2016 (EDT)

Whipped her but goodEdit

This is grammatically correct, but it is uncommon. —-OhoJeeOnFire (talk) 16:51, October 18, 2021 (EDT)

Attack names?Edit

Maybe I'm missing something obvious, but where do the names of the enemy attacks come from? They don't seem conjectural, with stuff like "Missilespikebonk", but they're not named in-game either. Blinker (talk) 08:23, February 6, 2024 (EST)
