:What do those Simpsons characters have to do with bird keeping or birds? What does Gamer Grumps have to do with ghosts? What does Cubone and Marowak have to do with Castlevania? Just having names that are the same isn't enough. Otherwise it's speculation to say that they are clear cut references (especially the Gamer Grumps one, like really?). This also extends to the Sesame street trivia on Route 19, what does Elmo have to do with swimming, or Bert and Ernie with bird keeping? We can't have trivia stating that things are references solely because of their names. Otherwise we'd have users going around saying a certain group of trainers on a route is a reference to some obscure tv show.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#EBC600">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#EBC600">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#D8B600">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#D8B600">ire</span>]] 10:38, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

::You're failing to see the point. It's not always about the Trainer classes or their Pokémon, but that they have something in common: All the Simpsons references are Bird Keepers. All the Gastly line Trainers are Psychics (and are all found in the same location), plus the Game Grumps have a history with Gengar. It's a reference if the characters share a Trainer class and/or area they're found in. I hope you understood my point. --[[User:FinnishPokéFan92|FinnishPokéFan92]] ([[User talk:FinnishPokéFan92|talk]]) 12:05, 31 December 2018 (UTC)

:::The only thing they have in common are the names. Anyone can pick out random group of trainers and say that they are a reference to some obscure show that no one knows. What do the Simpson characters have to do with bird keeping? Neither of those characters do anything remotely related to birds. It's a coincidence if they share a trainer class and are found in the same area, it also has nothing to do with what they are allegedly referring to.--[[User:Force Fire|<span style="color:#EBC600">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#EBC600">orce</span>]][[User talk:Force Fire|<span style="color:#D8B600">'''F'''</span><span style="color:#D8B600">ire</span>]] 12:26, 31 December 2018 (UTC)
