Nope. He only lives in Saffron City. --SnorlaxMonster 01:16, 14 May 2011 (UTC)

Not Notable?

Why is this page considered not notable? Isn't Mr.Psychic just as notable as the Copycat? Also it's how you get Psychic (move) in Generations I-IV (although in the III and IV it is in the remakes), so what if someone wants to know where to find Mr.Psychic?, or if they want a little more info on him? If this page is deleted then they won't be able to find that info here.(SONICバリヤ 15:20, 24 May 2011 (UTC))

All he does is give TM29 (Psychic), nothing more. The Copycat actually has some relevance to the plot. This page would be redirected to Saffron City#Mr. Psychic's house if it is deleted, so the problems you listed are non-issues. It seems that the only reason he has a page is because he has a name. --SnorlaxMonster 15:25, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

Just like the first guy, I don't think this page should be deleted. You say that all he does is give out that TM, but all Copycat does is get that ticket, as well. And Primo also does jacksquat, apart from making a cameo in each of the remakes. So why isn't he up for deletion as well? I'd say either leave it alone, or delete all NPCs with pages that 'don't do anything'. Don't Hug Lucario! 19:20, 24 May 2011 (UTC)

I say if it's gonna be redirected than that's fine. When talking about Copycat she has more plot depth in Heartgold and SoulSilver so she's necessary in an article. Mr. Psychic gives out a TM that's it. So if it gets redirected it'll still say Psychic (move) is available at his house. We don't need character depth in an article about this particular NPC.--GMAN202 15:57, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

Thing is, Mr. Psychic does nothing other than give a TM. He has like two lines of speech, and then gives you a TM. He has no impact on the plot, and you can go the entire game without even visiting him. There are Trainers in other places who have names and do about the same amount, but we don't give them articles. There are people on Village Bridge with names, there are people in a house in Icirrus City who run a quiz who have names. If Mr. Psychic had even once appeared in the manga, even if it was incredibly minor, I would not recommend this page be deleted. But as it stands, he has a name and that is about all. --SnorlaxMonster 16:04, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

I agree. Unlike Copycat, Mr. Psychic has no plot relevance in any medium, and only appears in one medium to boot. Copycat had a TCG card, and actually had a role in the plot of G/S/HG/SS, in that she gives the player a key item. And the comparison to Primo is silly; Primo actually has some backstory, at least as far as his family relations are concerned. Mr. Psychic, on the other hand, is only slightly more memorable than, say, the NPC in G/S/C who gives the TM for Headbutt, and that's because Mr. Psychic actually has a name. --Andy^P_K^M_N (talk) 19:25, 26 June 2011 (UTC)

Personally, I think that Mr. Psychic's information is relevant, but does not need it's own page. Transfer this information to the Saffron City page.
