Talk:Bear

(First topic)

How did you get "Bear" out of "Tamanoripū"? Unshy Guy 14:09, 22 June 2015 (EDT)

It's not a literal translation: as the article shows, the name comes from an issue of Nintendo Power. Hello, I'm Time Turner.

Ball-riding Pooh

The official website specifically refers to the bear itself as プー (Pū/Pooh). Roughly; "After defeating Pooh, Mario can ride on its ball." This indicates to me that タマノリプー is meant to be parsed as Ball-riding Pooh, rather than "Tamanoripū" being a name as such.

Well that explains the Google translator's hilariously-failed attempt at translating that description saying "if you pull the poo," I suppose. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk)

So are we agreed to change it back? SuperDragonRosalina (talk) 15:36, 2 August 2018 (EDT)

Somewhat. I don't want it to be that concretely-stated to certainly be a reference, but as it's still likely, I have now changed it to say something similar. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 15:43, 2 August 2018 (EDT)

Now that the Bear characters from Donkey Kong Land III have been merged to the Brothers Bear article, I think this page should be moved from "Bear (enemy)" to "Bear." The only other articles on the disambiguation page are the Teddy Bear and the Brothers Bear, which both aren't specifically "Bear," therefore this article should be moved that, removing the identifier.
