Article lacks notability. I had removed some dubious content that appeared to be used to give the impression of notability, content which was either not reception or extremely weak. Furthermore, the article does not really have anything in the way of background information, with the section devoted to mainly in-universe elements.

 * Redirect to List of generation IV Pokémon: Non-notable Pokemon that lacks significant independent coverage; the article also uses a lot of words to say not a whole lot. Curbon7 (talk) 03:17, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of generation IV Pokémon: Outdated articles, and per reasons above. 180.194.130.4 (talk) 03:26, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of generation IV Pokémon. Lot of fluff to attempt to show notability, but no in-depth coverage. Fails WP:GNG.  Onel 5969  TT me 12:56, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of generation IV Pokémon, clear fail of WP:GNG.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 17:33, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of generation IV Pokémon, fails WP:NFICTION and WP:GNG. Link20XX (talk) 18:18, 10 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to List of generation IV Pokémon per other editors, unless significant coverage can be found per WP:NEXIST. PS: I am very amused when I realized who originally created the article. Haleth (talk) 01:33, 11 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Redirect to the corresponding list of Pokémon. I think this article fails to have deep coverage by reliable secondary sources and real impact in the popular culture to have a stand-alone article. -- LoЯd  ۞pεth  21:13, 12 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Merge to List of generation IV Pokémon. Not seeing how this meets GNG, coverage is mostly in passing, failing WP:SIGCOV, or is a pure game guide / plot summary; some content can enrich the target list. --Piotr Konieczny aka Prokonsul Piotrus&#124; reply here 13:37, 14 July 2021 (UTC)
 * Transwiki game guide style content to Pokémon/Pokédex/Girantina --Mbrickn (talk) 01:06, 15 July 2021 (UTC)
