What does G stand for? This seems like a silly way to save five characters, especially since when reading the wikicode, it's easier to parse <code><nowiki>[[Pokémon breeding]]</nowiki></code> than <code><nowiki>{{g|breeding}}</nowiki></code>. Plus, the former doesn't require a template invocation. — [[User:Laoris|Laoris]] <sub>([[User_Talk:Laoris|Blah]])</sub> 16:48, 9 January 2009 (UTC) | What does G stand for?

:I'm pretty sure G was for game, originally, although this template is useful for linking to things like {{g|breeding}} and {{g|battle}}.
