lack of screentime
It shouldn't have been created at all!-Billy4b2004 10:07, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
- We only have it cause Ash caught it, then gave it to Casey. --ケンジのガール 10:31, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
- (editconflict) Yeah maybe. Has anyone actually thought that instead of deleting all the articles that at least one editor has thought "notable", we could instead make a list article at (for example) List of the Trom's Pokémon? Would this be worth going into? (Here or elsewhere) — THE TROM — 10:33, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
- Yeah, this is an ongoing and seemingly never-ending debate in regards to which Pokémon can have articles and which ones can't. Why do we have an article on Casey's Beedrill? Put simply, it was originally titled Ash's Beedrill. However, disagreement came up in regards to the naming of it. It was agreed then that this article should be renamed Casey's Beedrill, just like Ash's Haunter being renamed Sabrina's Haunter.
- As for notability, I'm truly on the fence about this one. It has appeared more often than other Pokémon temporarily owned by Ash (ie, Seaking), but one of those appearances was in the main series while the other was in a side series. I personally don't see any harm the article is causing. It's not like it's taking up a whole bunch of server space.
- Trom, you have a good idea with your suggestion. However, I personally think in the case of non-notable Pokémon, a mention on the owner's page is appropriate enough. --PAK Man Talk 22:45, 4 December 2008 (UTC)
- Then perhaps a section in Casey's article titled "List of Pokemon"? We could put a brief description and all the infoboxes with VAs and stuff there; I know losing this information has been a concern for some editors. — THE TROM — 00:13, 6 December 2008 (UTC)
- No actual screentime. I mean if Paul's Azumarill, a Pokémon that have participated in a Gym battle, can be deleted, why can a Pokémon that has done absolutely nothing except floating around can be kept.
