:...What do you mean, "only page you can edit"? If you're referring to the protections on the Pokémon articles, that's probably going to go away sometime next month. You can edit pretty much every other page on the wiki in the meantime. With regards to AJ's Sandshrew, {{bp|Notability requirements/Anime Pokémon|Look at number 7.}} "Pokémon that belong to characters of the day are never notable for their own article. However, in rare instances, an exception may be made if the Pokémon itself was a character of the day." [[A.J.]] was a CoD, but his Sandshrew wasn't. Therefore, it isn't notable enough for its own article.--'''[[Water (type)|<font color="#6890F0">Liquid</font>]]''' [[Mask of Ice|<font color="#6890F0">'''ICE'''</font>]] <small>(User:Cold)^{([[user:Cold|page]], [[User talk:Cold|talk]])}</small> 22:27, 21 October 2009 (UTC)

::[conflicted, thx cold] The problem is that fails to meet our unsecret policies, particularly the {{bp|Manual of style}} and the [[Bulbapedia:Notability requirements/Anime Pokémon|Anime Pokémon notability requirements]]. Item number seven on this list states "Pokémon that belong to characters of the day are never notable for their own article." A.J. is a character of the day, so the Sandshrew doesn't cut it, even though it's appeared in three things (really just two things: Yellow and anime). These appearances are actually quite small, and the Sandshrew didn't really do much in either appearance. It's better for the whole of Bulbapedia to have the information in one place: [[A.J.|this article]]. &mdash;'''<span style="font-family:Verdana"><span style="color:#000">darklord</span>[[User talk:The dark lord trombonator|<span style="color:#0047AB">trom</span>]]</span>''' 22:29, 21 October 2009 (UTC)
