Do you have something in particular in mind?  I went through the species pages to get it where it is today.  We could split the tables up to differentiate between resident vs. romance or add columns to the existing table.  Or move to something more graphical in nature.  [[User:Teker0|Teker0]] 14:42, 30 January 2007 (EST)

What we could do, to kind of clear it up, is make a rough food web, perhaps, and just have that image be the article? It could be colour/symbol coordinated as to whether it's eaten for residency or romance requirements, etc. That's my idea, at least. The template that's there now is just overly complicated. It looks great, but it's a pain to try and edit. Another option would be going back to the box look that was in place until like...February 2nd, I believe? --[[User:G-Veronica|G-Veronica]] 00:12, 2 October 2007 (EST)

maybe needs a re-work?

Ok it might be worthwhile to set this up like the game and/or keep it to what will make them a resident, shooting for consistency. ie for Syrupent both what makes it a resident and what it needs to romance is listed, two different things to consider, different impacts on your garden. Meanwhile for the Fox there's no mention of needing a Duck to romance. As laid out it just seems to be incomplete, inconsistent, and ending up misleading and inaccurate. And then there are optional/variant feeds... --CKazz 12:31, 4 January 2007 (EST)

I think we should just make it another pair of considerations on the pinata entries: "Conflicts With" and "Food Chain", the latter being what it eats and is eaten by. Maybe make the last one and its involvements with other pinatas (like, say, being needed for romance, etc) a single segment? Fluffstardx@hotmail.com 06:48, 7 January 2007 (EST)


There seems to be a few categories of information that might be useful:
  • Non-resident predators that eat residents
  • Resident species that fight
  • Species needed to romance
I've noticed that the third category can affect gameplay. Bonboons will immediately go to a Jameleon house each morning and wait for the pinata to come out. They won't start fights, but the Jameleons seem to have a "fear reaction" and become very difficult to direct until the Bonboons leave.

I think it might be worth re-designing this article... Anyone wanna take an initial stab at it? --Jimmcq 12:05, 29 January 2007 (EST)
