I don't think this article is notable. All of the criteria it lists are fairly arbitrary and don't satisfactorily separate Pokemon that are clearly gimmicky (Unown, Wobbuffet, Kecleon, etc) from those that I doubt most people would say are gimmicky, but meet the criteria anyway (Abra, Mr. Mime, Arceus, etc), while excluding some Pokemon that are clearly gimmicky but do not meet the criteria (Plusle, Minun, Pachirisu, and Emolga, for a start). There's an inherent gray area between gimmicky and non-gimmicky that I don't think anybody can draw a line through that will be acceptable to a large majority of people, so it's better not to include such a strongly non-neutral stance at all on a fact-based encyclopedia such as this.

:I don't see myself using this page much, if at all, nor do I see a point in keeping this article. I'm certain some may have views that differ from this list. That said, I support deleting this. [[User:Berrenta|Berrenta]] ([[User talk:Berrenta|talk]]) 23:55, 18 July 2013 (UTC) | |||
