Y R We doing this?
I'm puzzled as to why we have hardly important Pokemon with decent list entries already getting their own cruddy pages, but some entire lists sit without citations. Are we going back to having each Pokemon with their own list again? Or what? How can we have a page on the two gas clouds without a page on Ho-oh, Deoxys, Celebi, or even Pichu. Don't do things in half-measures is all I am saying. Confused,2D Backfire Master (

Because we do? For the most part though less than half of the overall Pokemon have any reception, and even less have development info. It works a lot better to isolate which ones are worth their own article, develop them and then tackle what's left.
...and even then it looks like only 18 of them will have their own articles or joint ones till more reception comes about. We're basically at the whims of third-party reviewers.--

We are making these articles because they have significant notability and pass requirements. I would make every single list referenced as much as "1-20" is, but it is alot of work. It isnt hard if you know how to do it. It just takes a while. Blake(

All right, but why don't we just cite the Pokédex (like we usually do) on those pages with little or no references? You don't need to go out looking for reviewer stuff to add to the list to make references.

2DBM, The work I was talking about is adding the Pokedex entries and episode references and such. It is quite simple, it just takes a while. It would take 5min on one article, but easily over an hour for one whole list. Blake(

2DBM, Blake has been doing that. In fact, he has been adding the Dex references for quite a long time. But when you have nearly 500 species to do, it can take several weeks to get it all done.

Though regarded as the strongest of their particular type, they were received as weak due to the weakness of said type until the release of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire. Their designs have been met with mixed reception, with sources such as GamesRadar stating approval for Koffing's appearance, while GameDaily described it as a "floating fart ball". In contrast, Weezing has been praised to a lesser extent, described as both an "abomination" and "horrific" by various sources.
is the third paragraph of this page at the time of this writing. Not only does it really not seem notable, but the last line doesn't even have source links. I propose we delete it. —Preceding

Though I have thus-far found no official evidence to support it I believe it probable that Koffing and Weezing are based on viruses, Weezings shape beares ressembelence to that of a cell part way through the division process and beause they are poison type I find it highly likely that this is where nintendo got the idea. —Preceding

The article currently claims that Koffing and Weezing are "known in Japan as Dogars (ドガース, Dogāsu) and Matadogas (マタドガス, Matadogasu)". What is the basis for "Dogars"? There's no "r" in the actual Japanese.
