Topic: [APPROVED] Growing these berries (Pokemon Berry BUR)

Posted under Tag Alias and Implication Suggestions

The bulk update request #1182 is active.

create implication pecha_berry (248) -> pokemon_berry (842)
create implication oran_berry (429) -> pokemon_berry (842)
create implication acai_berry (23) -> pokemon_berry (842)
create implication sitrus_berry (135) -> pokemon_berry (842)
create implication rawst_berry (40) -> pokemon_berry (842)
create implication tamato_berry (31) -> pokemon_berry (842)
create implication leppa_berry (55) -> pokemon_berry (842)
create implication cheri_berry (58) -> pokemon_berry (842)
create implication nanab_berry (34) -> pokemon_berry (842)

Reason: Various popular berry tags here on e621. Not directly implying the pokemon tag until it gets unimplied through topic #29559. The é is no longer tag friendly, after all.

This was briefly spoken about in topic #11752 but things have changed, and the tags are more populated.

EDIT: The bulk update request #1182 (forum #314634) has been approved by @Rainbow_Dash.

Sounds good to me, should pokemon_berry also imply fruit?

unrelated, I really wish the update didn't remove the ability to use an é properly because the tags just look so naked without it

I'm a bit iffy on that. The popular ones tend to look like fruits, and all of them do grow on trees, but some of them don't seem like fruits. For example, the chesto berry looks like and is named after a nut.

A nut, technically, is a type of fruit.

Wait, since when?

Other berries cans till look like vegetables or seeds instead of fruit.

Wouldn't berry_(pokemon) be a better choice? It would go in line with others tags that use the same kind of disambiguation

From Wikipedia:)

A nut is a fruit consisting of a hard or tough nutshell protecting a kernel which is usually edible. In general usage and in a culinary sense, a wide variety of dry seeds are called nuts, but in a botanical context "nut" implies that the shell does not open to release the seed (indehiscent).

As I suggested in my recent vegetable BUR, the seed of a fruit can probably get the fruit tag, though seed can’t imply fruit since not all seeds come from fruit. If it looks like a fruit seed, though, I don’t suppose that would be a huge issue. Also, many “vegetables” are actually fruit, like cucumber. I’m not familiar with Pokémon berries, but do any of them happen to look like broccoli or lettuce?
