Summary[edit]

Fair Use Rationale[edit]

Fair use for the article Pokémon Heartgold and Soulsilver. Covering both the license templates, this image, PokemonHGSSBox.jpg, is being linked here; though the picture is subject to copyright, I feel it is covered by U.S fair use laws because:

1. It is a low resolution copy of the game covers;
2. It does not limit the copyright owner's rights to sell the games in any way;
3. Copies could not be used to make illegal copies of the games.

Licensing[edit]

Other uses of this image may be copyright infringement. For more information, see Wikipedia:Non-free content. Fair use //en.wikipedia.org/wiki/File:PokemonHGSSBox.jpg true
