Talk:Dosidon

Name
The name is Dosaidon. Sai means rhino. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 201.236.150.27 (talk) 19:49, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
 * That may be true, but aren't the Japanese names for Rhyhorn and Rhydon Sihorn and Sidon? So wouldn't Rhydon's evolved form keep the tradition with the "Si"? —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 68.163.190.31 (talk) 20:29, 30 September 2006 (UTC)
 * NO, IT's SAIHORN AND SAIDON! Please change it back! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 69.242.175.18 (talk) 22:52, 23 November 2006 (UTC)

Serebii.net, which the article links to, spells it Dosaidon. 70.149.217.82 19:42, 12 December 2006 (UTC)
 * Serebii.net is behind in some trivial aspects; they never bother to update with official Romanizations and more often than not simply use romaji. The katakana are "dosaidon", yes, but the Romanization is Dosidon.  Which is presumptuously pronounced identically...—ウルタプ 00:51, 13 December 2006 (UTC)

english name
dosidons english name has NOT been confirmed as rhyperior, so i have deleted its 'english' name from the article. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Chaosemeraldking (talk • contribs) 20:46, 12 March 2007 (UTC).
 * Thank you. Most people would leave it in there on Serebii's say-so. -Jeske (v^_^v) 21:15, 12 March 2007 (UTC)


 * I couldn't care less if it's kept as Dosidon or changed to Rhyperior. It's true Serebii isn't a reliable source, but in the last couple months, when have they been wrong? :P --NukeMTV 18:59, 24 March 2007 (UTC)

The name has been confirmed as Rhyperior
The games will be out April 22nd, and no other name has been confirmed. The name IS Rhyperior and needs to changed. —The preceding unsigned comment was added by Wolf Link 555 (talk • contribs) 17:20, 5 April 2007 (UTC) "The games will be out ..." -- They're still not out yet, though. Maybe let's wait till then for some confirmation - it's not that long. "No other name has been confirmed" -- Why would another name be reported? Is there any reason the names should be assumed to be confirmed at all before Diamond and Pearl's release? "The name IS Rhyperior ..." -- No, this is the problem - you have no reliable source to back this up. And no, Serebii does not count because his information is attributed to an anonymous source. – mcy1008  ( talk ) 20:54, 5 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Let's see, breaking this up:

Already April 22, it's officially Rhyperior. Eriorguez 01:12, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
 * Since when did the date confirm anything other than the date? You have to actually have a source (the game would count, though Rhyperior isn't exactly a Pokémon you get near the beginning of the game...) – mcy1008  ( talk ) 01:15, 22 April 2007 (UTC)

But it is. Some places sold it before time, so people have advanced into it. Plus, WiFi trading with the Japanese version revealed the american name as Rhyperior. Eriorguez 14:06, 22 April 2007 (UTC)
