The result was redirect to Pokémon Gold and Silver. If it is found that there is enough content to distinguish them from their predecessors in the future, then that can be discussed later. Until then, this should remain a redirect. (non-admin closure) JudgeRM   (talk to me)  03:43, 20 November 2016 (UTC)

Pokémon Crystal

I don't believe Pokémon Crystal deserves a standalone article. I have played Pokémon Gold, Silver and Crystal several times and there isn't enough different to warrant a separate article. Laun chba  ller  11:08, 12 November 2016 (UTC)

 * Redirect to the appropriate section of Pokémon Gold and Silver, where there is much more detail than the standalone article. ansh 666 19:14, 12 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Redirect to main article as above, and lock it down as the redirect keeps getting reverted Atlantic306 (talk) 03:58, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Not so fast? Crystal was reviewed separately from Gold/Silver and could be covered separately if we can determine that there is enough to distinguish them in the sources (especially if one reviewed better than the others. This is the same situation for Yellow and Emerald in Template:Pokémon. I would support redirecting Crystal/Yellow/Emerald only if we can determine that their content will be largely unchanged from that of their predecessors (depends what the new sources add). czar  15:49, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
 * Honestly, I think renaming the article to include all 3 would be a better compromise. There probably isn't enough difference for a new article, and also much of it would be "Unlike/compared to RGB/GS/RSE/etc..." which would work better within those articles. ansh 666 19:31, 15 November 2016 (UTC)
