You know the move that Oatchi can do when you send him on an enemy or you press {{button|switch|a|switch|facer}} when controlling him? What is it called? Shepherd's training refers to it as Chomp, the thing when you don't do anything for a while calls it Chomp, but the Control Guide calls it Bite.

:Are both appearances capitalised? Like, chomp and bite mean the same thing, so the word's different appearances might just be colloquial and unofficial synonyms, and one might be lowercase, denoting the other as the correct term. If both are capitalised, then I have profoundly no idea which one would be better to use, haha. <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 00:56, November 30, 2024 (EST)

::Bite is uppercase 2 times in the Control Guide, and lowercase when Olimar says {{transcript|If [[Moss|she]] would bite me even once...}}, and in the Gameplay Guide in section Skills: Chomp ({{transcript|This is a bite attack...}}), and Chomp is also uppercase, but used way more often.

:::Then I'd use Chomp then, probably. <span style="font-family: Trebuchet MS, sans-serif">[[User:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">Deeb1324354657</span>]] ([[User_talk:Deeb1324354657|<span style="color:#1e02f5">talk</span>]])</span> 12:33, December 1, 2024 (EST)
::::There's a reason it's inconsistent, and it has to due with the Japanese text. The skill is usually referred to as {{j|カミツキ|kamitsuki}} in Japanese, written in katakana. Usually, but not always. It's sometimes spelled in hiragana, namely when it's actually used as a verb. So, for example, in the action guide, it's written as {{j|かみつく|kamitsuku}}. For some reason, the translators decided that it was important to preserve this difference, hence "Chomp" for the former and "bite" for the latter.
