::On the left side of your screen there should be a section called Tools. In that section, there's a link that says "What links here" which, on the Pichu (anime) page for instance, brings up [https://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/wiki/Special:WhatLinksHere/Pichu_(anime) this], which shows all pages that link to that page.

::::It's worth noting that redirects still do work if you put {{template|delete}} in the second line, i.e. after the <code>#REDIRECT</code> call. That's what I typically do (in addition to re-linking any occurences of it being used). | |||
::::That way, the redirect is marked for deletion ''and'' still works until it is actually deleted - so there is no drawback; and whoever actually deletes the redirect is supposed to check for articles linking there, too.
