List of Pokémon by color
Wikipedia is not an indiscriminate collection of information; listcruft and unencyclopedic. The article is also unsourced and can be construed as original research  hoopydink Conas tá tú? 02:58, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Keep I found it helpful on several occasions when I was looking for pokemon whose names escaped me. It's better than the "by species" page imo.--Nick 00:34, 15 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete Agree, overly crufty. A fairly worthless collection of information, really.  Don't need any lists of these fictional characters/animals sorted in special ways. Kevin_b_er 03:01, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Keep - an officially defined element in Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald. The source for this data is Psypokes.com. Andros 1337 03:53, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * For the love of God, Delete Cruft is calling this cruft. --Xrblsnggt 04:03, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. The colors are actually categories from the Pokédexes of Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire, but, yeah, not at all encyclopedic. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 04:15, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. Pascal.Tesson 04:51, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete - for this be an unencyclopedic topic &mdash; not worthy of an encyclopedia, but perhaps a categorization/organization project. Sweet Jimbo Wales, my brain is starting to tick like crazy! —     04:52, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, per nom + not really useful/important. -- Evan  Robidoux  06:01, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete If I recall, Pokemon can actually sometimes be different colors, as pointed out in Gold and Silver. Michael 06:15, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Well, this list uses the Pokédex color categories, not just an inane observation of "Wow, this Pokémon is mostly X color." Sometimes it goes against logic; several mostly-purple Pokémon are categorized as blue, for example. - A Man In Bl♟ck (conspire | past ops) 06:31, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per above. This violates both WP:NOT and my cruft dam theory. &mdash; Deckill e r 06:40, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. In the event that this is actually useful somehow, it would be better off categorized anyway. BryanG(talk) 07:01, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete This informatio can be preserved in a category or the individual articles if people want. No need for a list.  Eluchil404 09:55, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, there is no indication as to why this information is relevant or important. Punkmorten 12:00, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Note: This debate has been included in the list of Japan-related deletions.   -- TheFarix (Talk) 12:04, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nomination, WP:NOT, WP:FICT. This is the kind of stuff that is appropriate for the Poke-Wiki (whatever its name is) but not for WP.  Barno 14:22, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete. Just too much.   Proto ::  type  15:10, 14 July 2006 (UTC)

 * Delete per nom. Quickly, this article scares me! Zos 19:47, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete per nom. If this is useful, it's in game-guide territory. Category is more than enough. - Wickning1 19:56, 14 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete, fancruft. -- Hoary 07:30, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Weak Delete per above, but because I didn't really think it should be deleted myself, I have to make this weak M  inun    (Spiderman)  14:02, 15 July 2006 (UTC)
 * Delete: Why, fansites like Serebii.net do the color-category approach better than this page can. Not many will use it anyway. Erik the Appreciator 01:36, 16 July 2006 (UTC)
