[edit] Rival(Pokemon)

These characters each have their own articles already, this would be better as a category. Also, the content of the article is rather FAQy. WikidSmaht (talk) 17:53, 23 May 2006 (UTC)

• Cleanup and/or Merge into existing Pokemon articles. If not merge, then a much shortened version of the article would be preferred, giving the gist of it and referring people to the pages of each individual game. Hobbeslover 01:22, 24 May 2006 (UTC)

• Comment. This is a recreation of Your Rival (deleted by prod). We need consensus as this will just keep getting recreated. --Ezeu 17:05, 30 May 2006 (UTC)
  • Comment Just to be fair, I want to mention that this was created before Your Rival was deleted. The author( User:Team terra) apparently doesn’t understand page moves, and created a whole new article with copied/pasted content when the name “Your Rival” was criticized. -- WikidSmaht (talk) 21:43, 3 June 2006 (UTC)
