I'll bet nobody's ever asked this before, but which Pinata Species is your favorite? I like Macaraccoon, Pretztail and Fizzlybear. -MiaRe123
There is a lot of great discussion taking place at the Viva Pinata Forum, so you may want to join there if you haven't already. --Jimmcq 15:11, 4 September 2006 (EDT)
I'm thinking about adding an eagle species, but since there was some that thought that it was a seagull should I wait? -Spartan
I haven't gotten a chance to watch that video yet, so I don't really have an opinion on which one it is yet... Maybe add it to the Unknown page for now? --Jimmcq 18:23, 23 September 2006 (EDT)
When you get a chance to watch it, check out the right side at 2:00 to see what appears to be a lion walking by :) --FeralKitty 18:33, 23 September 2006 (EDT)
I don't think that I should be the one who is in progress of writing the pinata bios. It's not that I don't won't to but I want others to feel welcomed to contribute. It's not like the episode things where only I should write those because the story is the same and they should all follow one writing style. People may find or have different impressions of each pinata. --Spartan 19:21, 26 October 2006 (EDT)
Regarding variants, a grammatically correct sentence would be an improvement. Currently, using "...changes its color to a color species" is saying that you're changing the color to a color that is named after the species. Writing "Doing this changes it to this color or pattern would make more sense; alternatively, "Doing this changes the species to this color or pattern. --Photon Turtle
FYI, Misral93 wasn't responsible for the grammar, and was just using what we'd been consistently entering. This suggestion is better off on the Category talk:Species discussion page, and I'm moving it.
