Article seems to be reaching heavily for notability. Most of the mentions in reliable secondary sources are extremely minor. I would argue that it fails WP:GNG. _{ZXCVBNM ( TALK)} 15:41, 8 February 2018 (UTC) reply

• Speedy redirect and protect per BRD. WP:POKEMON is a quite well-established precedent, and the page was a redirect for four years until a few days ago when someone showed up and reverted the redirectifying of the page. This is a simple procedural matter; there needs to be a clear consensus that the topic is notable rather than a random editor showing up and unilaterally overruling the previous consensus-supported merging. And for full disclosure, I've actually been an on-and-off Pokemon fan for twenty years; this is just a Wikipedia procedural process for me, and not about me having any problem with the particular fandom some people might accuse me of "attacking" for this !vote.
