:I've been thinking, I'm actually not really sure. The overview helps to understand the list below. I'll wait to see if anyone else has anything to add, but I'm leaning towards keeping the overview and the list together. --[[User:Daniel Carrero|Daniel Carrero]] ([[User talk:Daniel Carrero|talk]]) 10:52, 14 April 2020 (UTC)

::What I have to agree to is that, for me personally, the article has become way less usable. I want to see the list when I'm here (and the article is still titled "List of", so I expect this also applies to many others), I don't want to scroll down eternally to see it. (I actually think this change could have been discussed beforehand.) If there's some solution that enables that (a split; shortening the overview; ...), that'd be fine with me.

:::I think this article is too large even without the overview. The text at the top (sections "Overview" and "Availability by generations") are about 28 kB. The whole article is about 123 kB. So that text is a bit more than 1/5 of the article. Maybe we can split the article into various lists of Pokémon by generation or something?
:::That aside, is "List of Pokémon by availability" a good title in the first place? This article is not really a list of Pokémon by availability. It's just a list of Pokémon by their Pokédex number, and their availability. A list of Pokémon by availability would be a list of catchable Pokémon, a list of evolvable Pokémon, a list of gift Pokémon, etc. --[[User:Daniel Carrero|Daniel Carrero]] ([[User talk:Daniel Carrero|talk]]) 20:41, 20 August 2020 (UTC)
