[edit] GA status

Passed. Appropriate references, gives a good explanation of what the creature is, and has competent sections on what role was played in the video games. I'm somewhat dissapointed the article did not posess a charteristics section like others I'd noted of this type, though. This may be attributed to the data on the creature. -Zero^Talk 19:57, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

It does, but it's merged with the lead ofr being a bit short. The Pokédex seems to say less about Squirtle than some others. Regards, —Celestianpower ^háblame 22:26, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

How the hell did this pass and Combusken not? Wikipedia is against chickens! :O Highway ^{Rainbow Sneakers} 22:28, 11 June 2006 (UTC)

I'm not sure; I didn't review Combusken. -Zero^Talk 04:20, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

I know, but it has about three times as many refs. Highway ^{Rainbow Sneakers} 07:15, 12 June 2006 (UTC)

Some reviewers are harsher than others, and that's their perogative, I'm afraid. Regards, —Celestianpower ^háblame 07:36, 12 June 2006 (UTC)
