Why?
Okay, articles for Haunter and Larvitar, who are in more than one episode, I understand. I also understand "Ash's Beedrill", as it redirects to Casey's Bedrill. But why on earth does this Pokemon, who should be mentioned nearly wholy in Butterfree's article, get his own? Is it more signifigant than 'Max's Jirachi' or 'May's Manaphy'? Or how ab out 'Jessie's Charizard', another Pokemon that they own for less than an entire episode?--PikamasterADV 16:42, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
- Because it was traded to Ash, and it was actually a Pokémon that belonged to him. May's Manaphy is now called Manaphy (anime), and Jessie's Charizard actually belonged to her, albeit for a short amount of time. --PAK Man 21:08, 12 October 2006 (UTC)
- I just singled out Manaphy because it was the best example I could come up with. THEN I thought of Charizard. The thing about it is Jessie's Charizard DOES NOT HAVE IT'S OWN PAGE! I'm wondering what makes a Charizard that was owned for less an episode less signifigant than a Raticate that was owned for less than an episode.
