"Poké" is commonly used to refer to Pokémon so it should redirect to the article about the species. サトミュウ (SatoMew) 22:57, 28 September 2015 (UTC)

AFAIK that's totally informal. If there's an official term (the currency) that's actually called "Poké", it every bit deserves to be here. IMO there's no real merit for any disambig or redirect. A disclaimer of some sort, such as has been added, is entirely sufficient. Tiddlywinks (talk) 23:52, 28 September 2015 (UTC)
