Pikachu (Pokémon)

• This is an extremely detailed and accurate article. Bulbapedia needs a Pokémon species article as a FA because that's what Bulbapedia is all about. What better Pokémon to represent Bulbapedia than the most well known of them all, Pikachu?--Alex726_{contributions} 02:18, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Maybe Bulbasaur? 梅子^❀_✿ 02:35, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

Bulbasaur was already nominated and did not get voted in as a FA. Even if Bulbasaur literally represents Bulbapedia, it's article is not as detailed as Pikachu's. I am not playing favorites. I'm just stating my opinion that Pikachu's article is better than Bulbasaur's.--Alex726_{contributions} 02:44, 9 October 2010 (UTC)

• Support. I'm not fan of Pikachu, but it is time to have a Pokémon as FA and Pikachu has the best article of them.--でんのう ☢ Zえんし 06:48, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
• This is my first time voting, so I could be wrong, but I can't see anything disqualifying about this article. --☯ *Ɣℯ№ӎօṫհ* ☯ 19:56, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
• I have to agree, I say it deserves to be one (I mean it is the "unofficial" mascot....) Ataro 22:57, 9 October 2010 (UTC)
• I agree with all of the above. This is a very organised and well written article. There's tons of great trivia and it's about time a pokémon article got a FA. Pokemaster97 18:48, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
• Altough I think the trivia section is a little messy. I'm for.-- Gagaromamah, Your Little Monster 06:07, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
• Support. It is without a question the best article about a Pokémon on here. The Trivia section seems OK to me, and if it doesn't, nothing that a few edits can't fix. The Mascot of the series deserves a place in there. --Shinytwo 18:19, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
• Although I was going to vote against for the trivia section, the fixed-up version looks tons better, so I think it should be a featured article now. --Purimpopoie 18:34, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
• With the fixing of the trivia, I am in support of the article. It's Turtwig A! My talk or wiki edits 20:52, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
• This article has obviously had lots of time and effort put into it. Pikachu is a great choice for the first Pokémon article to achieve FA status. SuperAmpharos 21:18, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
• Seems good to me. It's awfully long, but I can't imagine how we could do anything about that. Plus, that length is due to large amounts of well-organized content. --Andy^P_K^M_N 00:41, 13 October 2010 (UTC)
• Don't know if you want a newbie's opinion, but then yeah, it's a fairly longer than most pokemon articles, it's obtainable in almost every game, (mainly what I'm talking about is side games), and it's almost like the mascot of the whole company. Chocos0 04:14, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

• The trivia section is way too disorganized. It's Turtwig A! My talk or wiki edits 02:20, 9 October 2010 (UTC)new version is good enough for FA status. It's Turtwig A! My talk or wiki edits 20:52, 12 October 2010 (UTC)
• Per Turtwig A, Epicsnail 17:08, 10 October 2010 (UTC)
• Yeah, no. Too disorganized. CuboneKing 01:05, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

Is it better now?--でんのう ☢ Zえんし 09:57, 12 October 2010 (UTC)

• Not much better than any other Pokémon article. --Maxim 13:06, 16 October 2010 (UTC)

But it's longer and more comprehensive, plus it's quite representative of the franchise as a whole. --Andy^P_K^M_N 16:23, 16 October 2010 (UTC)
