:::The definition of a novelty Pokémon is a weak Pokémon serves no purpose other than to be a collectible. So none of the Pokémon you listed qualify because they have higher attack power, evolve, or are legendary. --[[Tracey Sketchit|<span style="color:#33CC66;">'''ケンジ'''</span>]][[User talk:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#6600CC;">'''の'''</span>]][[User:Kenji-girl|<span style="color:#FF00CC;">'''ガール'''</span>]] 01:54, 11 December 2010 (UTC) | :::The definition of a novelty Pokémon is a weak Pokémon serves no purpose other than to be a collectible.

::::Being a Novelty has absolutely nothing to do with how strong a Pokemon is, it is whether or not they are gimmicky, Castform and Shedinja are powerful but are still novelty, and Pachirisu has already been removed. <small><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:blue; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span></small> 02:03, 11 December 2010 (UTC) | ::::Being a Novelty has absolutely nothing to do with how strong a Pokemon is, it is whether or not they are gimmicky, Castform and Shedinja are powerful but are still novelty, and Pachirisu has already been removed. <small><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span>[[User:Vuvuzela2010|<span style="color:blue; background-color:white">'''Vuvuzela2010''']]</span><span style="color:white; background-color:blue">'''X'''</span></small> 02:03, 11 December 2010 (UTC) | ||
:::::the page exists in the same vein as | :::::the page exists in the same vein as {{pkmn2|Pseudo-legendary}} in that it is both technically opinion, and widely accepted by the fandom. the power of said Pokemon IS supposed to play a role in this, but due to a lot of people insisting that said Pokemon (like Pachi) are "powerful in their own way", it has been hard to govern this page. personally, i think Pachi basically defines "novelty Pokemon" but thats another story. -- '''[[User:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">MAG</span>]][[Special:Contributions/MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#696969;">NE</span>]][[User talk:MAGNEDETH|<span style="color:#000033;">DETH</span>]]''' 02:07, 11 December 2010 (UTC) | ||
::::::At least pseudo legends have some standards. Base stat total and 3 stage evolution. With novelty, it seems like it's "You're tiny and can't evolve.

:I partly agree with Kenji-girl that Arceus, being a legendary, probably shouldnt be on the page, the rest, especially Spiritomb, Hippopotas and Feebas, deserve a mention | :I partly agree with Kenji-girl that Arceus, being a legendary, probably shouldnt be on the page, the rest, especially Spiritomb, Hippopotas and Feebas, deserve a mention | ||
