A recent edit changed Pokémon to Pokemon in the tracklist. The official site lists the spelling as Pokémon, so I'm thinking we should keep going with that. I'm not 100% sold though, so I'd like to hear what you all think.

Well if the official site lists it as Pokémon, there really isn't much to say. I say go with Pokémon

It has been Pokémon since the beginning. The term is a romanized contraction of the Japanese name, Pocket Monster / Poketto Monsutā. The 'é' is used to give the name its correct pronunciation since without it, it would basically sound as "Pokemon" (pōkmän).

Sorry for bumping this. . .

Oh. It's indeed "Nyarth". I always went with "Nyaasu". Good to know.

Why keeping Case Front & Back while we have Case Front and Case Back & Inside in much better quality?

Because in the "Case Front & Back" cover we clearly see front & back are connected.
Someone that never saw the full case can not guess it with 2 separate covers.
edit: make a better scan of the front pic (at least 1032 in height and i'll make a nice patchwork like i love to.. (actually it's ugly)

EDIT: Whoops, I meant this one. (w/o Charmander's head being doubled)

There seems to have been a problem with track 99 of the Japanese tracklist (perhaps involving the / character?) which has resulted in 100 tracks, which isn't even physically possible actually. But I'm not quite sure if I should just go ahead and re-enter the track name, since it might just happen again, or if it would even get rid of the track 100. If someone knows how to fix this, that would be appreciated.

I'm assuming we're using the full description of the last track as seen on the back on the case, which reads

ゲーム音楽作曲家・増田順一オリジナル『ポケモンテクノ』
ゲームボーイ『ポケモン』効果音集

so maybe somebody separated the two descriptions with a / and the tracklist system didn't like that (but then maybe I just can't figure out what's going on).

EDIT: Okay, so I just made some changes anyway, a couple of wrong characters for tracks and I changed track 99 of disc 2 to what the name should be (or what it seems like it should be anyway), and then I fixed some other things. The Nidoran names with the male and female signs had parentheses that really just came out of nowhere (they're not even written like that in the English game), and then one alternate title used the wrong type of quotes (single instead of double like it's written on the case), while the other used a Roman comma, but still tried to use the Japanese quotation marks (I favored the Roman punctuation since it was just Romaji anyway).

Track 100 is still there though.

I also changed the romaji to é. I... really don't know how to approach this. é is always used, yet romaji would never call for it, yet it's romaji... I'm just going to hide behind macron spam and hope for the best.

I corrected the spelling of Ninetales and Wigglytuff on the localized tracklist. They had been spelled as Ninetails and Wigglypuff previously.

Dunno how this went so long with nobody catching it, but the romaji in the title was incorrect. 入る is almost always read as hairu unless it's part of a compound like 立ち入る or a set phrase like 気に入る.

I have removed track 100 from the Japanese tracklist on disc 2. Please delete the old tracklist.
