King Grambi[edit]

Is he a Nimbi? I didn't put it because Jaydes didn't appear to be a Shaydes, but... Well, what do you guys think? (this comment is by Dreyfus2006; the Signature Button didn't show up)

Umm...Dreyfus you don't need the signature button. You just type ~ thre times. ANd the signature button doesn't appear for me but I stil type ~ three times. And no idea if Grambi is a Nimb but he of ocurse looks like one! Silent but deadly! SuperLuigi821 You lost everything. Way to go genious.

Ah.... Gotcha.--Dreyfus2006 13:36, 28 May 2007 (EDT)

Category:Undead[edit]

Don't they belong into Category:Undead? D-Men are also there... And Nimbis are to the Overthere what D-men are to the Underwhere. --PaperStriker 07:09, 6 January 2008 (EST)

I think so, because all creatures in the Underwhere are creatures who have had "Game Overs", so in a way, she is half undead because her mom is dead. I really can't explain this one.Knife (talk) 13:31, 7 January 2008 (EST)

Korean name[edit]

Why is the Korean name identical with Luvbi?

The Korean names for the individual Nimbis are based on Japanese, so the same might be true of the species. In fact, a Korean wiki mention the name of the species as 엘엘인, paralleling the Japanese エルエル人. (The Cragnon article confirms the 인 = 人 part.) It is unlikely for the name of the species to incorporate the Korean word for "love" when Luvbi's does and the other Nimbis' don't.

If we could invalidate the currently given Korean name, we should also fix the articles for Blubi, Rebbi, Whibbi and Yebbi. --Dine2017 (talk) 11:56, June 25, 2024 (EDT)
