editPowerade Option is now discontinued and replaced with Powerade Zero. RIP Black Cherry; we'll miss you.
I edited the words that seemed to be biased toward the drink. Trivial, but whatever! —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 12.203.20.240 (talk • contribs) 01:39, March 22, 2006 (UTC)
Removed the line at the bottom, "* Powerade is also a 60 priest on rexxar a sever of World of Warcraft" Because let's face it, nobody cares.--SunWuKong 00:17, 28 November 2006 (UTC)
Powerade logo
editCan someone put up the Powerade logo? They article looks bad without one.
Powerade and olympic games 1996
editWhen i read the page, it said that Powerade became the sponsor in 1934. I changed it to 1994, but i can't find a confirmation. Seems logical enough, though. Feel free to correct me. —Preceding unsigned comment added by Eazy-O (talk • contribs) 00:41, 4 March 2008 (UTC)
Powerade and olympic games 1992
editThe official sport drink in the 1992 olympics in Barcelona was Aquarius not Powerade...

FROZEN BLAST
editThere is no mention whatsoever to the "Frozen Blast" flavour which I guess could be the Mountain Blast but... I'm not sure, and which happens to have the B3, B6 and B12 mentioned in the advertisement... But tastes like some sort of bubblegum... —The preceding unsigned comment was added by 200.106.69.208 (talk • contribs) 13:22, June 18, 2006 (UTC)
Koolaid
editIn the article, this line appears: "Kool-Aid also holds a fair share of potential sports drink consumers." I think it is very debatable--and probably not true...Kool-Aid is marketed towards children while the later two really aren't. Modor 18:52, 21 June 2007 (UTC)Modor
Flavours
editThe Powerade flasks in Sweden has a "New" tag now. Also saw "Mountain Blast" and "Snow Storm" (new name for Ice Storm ?) and those aren't listed in the Europe flavour list. Any other Europe country seeing the same ? (Forgot to sign) 194.68.126.35 (talk) 07:33, 19 March 2008 (UTC) fagol I don't know if it was widely marketed, but Powerade Play was around our area for a few years (2007-2010). It was a lighter calorie version of the regular. Coke never gave me an answer to the question of what happened to it, but it disappeared off their MyCoke Rewards page early last year.204.108.0.11 (talk) 04:29, 26 March 2012 (UTC)

Vegitarian?
editIs powerade Vegitarian, as it only contains the milk of mammals? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 92.22.193.134 (talk) 19:35, 24 August 2008 (UTC)

Requested move
edit- POWERade → Powerade — Fix capitalisation of trademark per WP:MOSNAME. — Richmeistertalk 18:25, 1 November 2008 (UTC)
- Move request completed. Please discuss this move here. After a few days an admin will come along to determine whether consensus exists for the move. Thank you!--Aervanath lives in the Orphanage 17:17, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
- Comment. Can someone please specify which part of WP:MOSNAME applies here? Thanks. --Born2cycle (talk) 17:33, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
- Never mind. I found it here. --Born2cycle (talk) 20:17, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
- Support. The MOS clearly states trademark names "in full or partial uppercase (such as Invader ZIM) should have standard capitalization (Invader Zim)". --Born2cycle (talk) 20:17, 4 November 2008 (UTC)
- Support. Seems pretty clear cut under MOS:TM and MOS:CAPS. Page was originally at "Powerade" until May 2008. Station1 (talk) 03:52, 6 November 2008 (UTC)

Are these energy or sports drinks?
editI didn't initially believe that Powerades are energy drinks, however on the labels on some of the flavors, they are supposedly energy drinks (for example Mountain Blast, Arctic Shatter, etc.). Are these energy drinks, or sports drinks, or does it depend on the flavor? 71.233.247.70 (talk) 02:22, 8 December 2008 (UTC)
sponsorships
editis powerade not the official drink of the NHL? —Preceding unsigned comment added by 64.25.180.159 (talk) 05:54, 18 May 2009 (UTC)
Griefed
editSome guy relabeled Powerade and Gatorade to "Connorade" in the first part there... can anyone fix that?
Done You could do that yourself by opening the History tab & clicking "Undo" on the last edit. Rodhullandemu 20:15, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
Thanks! I hate when people grief Wiki.MatthewBlacke (talk) 20:16, 11 January 2011 (UTC)
Two WikiProjects tagged on the same talk page
editSpecifically on this talk page itself, is there any reason that could explain why there are two WikiProjects tagged at the top of this talk page? --RossSLynch (talk) 19:22, 17 November 2012 (UTC)

Powerade Zero Lemon Lime Discontinued?
editAccording to Powerade's site, it doesn't show Lemon Lime as being available as a flavor any longer. Additionally, it's like $3/bottle on any sites that carry it. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 216.196.186.2 (talk) 18:42, 20 December 2016 (UTC)
timeline?
editThe infobox says it was introduced in 1990, but the first section says it was the official drink of the 1988 Olympic Games. Which one of these is correct?24.31.224.171 (talk) 01:29, 8 December 2017 (UTC)
Product portofolio?
editIt looks like rather a list "Powerade by country" than a regular wikipedia article. So I think it should just be made into "powerade offers a variety of tastes, drinks X in Japan Y I U Y T in UK, L PO and U in Atlantis" — Preceding unsigned comment added by OjuzKiopo (talk • contribs) 16:59, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
Gatorade's article does not list every product. It looks way better and seems more useful. — Preceding unsigned comment added by OjuzKiopo (talk • contribs) 17:32, 21 February 2021 (UTC)
Marked the section about products as promotionnal. The part of the article about every powerade colour availaible in the world could be a separate detailled article. "List of flavours of Powerade"
Commercials
editWhat moron designed the record ads. Never! 174.103.144.162 (talk) 17:42, 18 March 2022 (UTC)
History section
editThis section doesn't tell me much about it's history in way of it's creation. It doesn't even plainly state when it was invented; just starts talking about the '88 Olympics.... TicklesYourTaint (talk) 01:56, 10 October 2022 (UTC)
