Uhh... Why does this page need two templates? Mr. Guy the Guy Talk!
Name?
I just watch a video on this enemy and it's name is Mokuka. Should i move this to Mokuka? GalladeBlades
Provide a link to the video and we'll see from there.--Knife (talk) 15:39, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
- I'm fairly certain it's "Mokuka" in dialogue and "Mokura" when selected in battle.
EDIT: Confirmed in this video, among others. It's called Mokuka when it says "Duh, huh huh...", and then Mokura when it's selected.--vellidragon 15:48, 3 November 2010 (UTC)
I see. I guess the way it is now will work. Moving it to Mokuka would mean changing all of the links to this article anyway.--Knife (talk) 14:59, 5 November 2010 (UTC)
Move to Formless?
Considering this is its default state and it's the name that appears in both the original and the remake (ala Moleville Mountain), does anyone else think that the article title could be changed? LinkTheLefty (talk) 20:55, January 2, 2024 (EST)
- "Formless" is just when it's invisible, and "Mokura/Gassox" is when it reveals itself. So no, the article title should not be changed. Nightwicked Bowser 21:33, January 2, 2024 (EST)
- "Formless" could be seen as comparable to ???? from Superstar Saga, so I think it's fine as-is. Doc von Schmeltwick (talk) 22:42, January 2, 2024 (EST)
- In fairness, "Formless" still manages to be a unique name, whereas the old Moku- can be easily confused with Muku, and the new Gassox almost sounds like another relative of Puppox. LinkTheLefty (talk) 06:08, January 3, 2024 (EST)
- Does slight name confusion really matter though (which can be subjective)? It looks to me like you're reaching a bit there. Regardless for that, Gassox still appears to be the proper name for the subject further clarified by the monster list profiles. Nightwicked Bowser 06:14, January 3, 2024 (EST)
- What I read into the Monster List profiles ("...a creature that has no form." / "Formless no more, but still without substance...") is that your action is the catalyst turning Formless into Gassox, and so, Formless is its natural state. LinkTheLefty (talk) 06:35, January 3, 2024 (EST)
