 Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus.
 * Should probably get a mention somewhere given the first reference in the article, but I and the WP:VG/SE otherwise agree the topic is not notable enough for a standalone page. --Izno (talk) 17:56, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Merge Can't find additional sources beyond that Kotaku (from RSes, that is). There should probably be a section in the main Pokemon VG Series article about fan made games, which have individually weak notability but are notable as a general class of game to be mentioned there. --M asem (t) 18:50, 14 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete An obvious case of WP:TOOSOON. Can be recreated at a later date once it gets more coverage besides just a couple articles.ZXCVBNM (TALK) 14:42, 17 January 2020 (UTC)

Please add new comments below this notice. Thanks, Missvain (talk) 18:50, 21 January 2020 (UTC)  Relisted to generate a more thorough discussion and clearer consensus. Relisting comment: Curious what people think of merge options regarding this article. Or should we just delete it?
 * Delete The only reliable coverage is the Kotaku article thus it fails WP:GNG. I would not be opposed to it being mentioned in a small fan-made section on Pokémon as mentioned by Masem.  Spy-cicle💥   Talk? 17:07, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
 * Delete or merge - There could be a List of Pokémon fan games, or similar, I suppose, which would be a good location for a merge and redirect. I don't think the main Pokémon article would be a suitable location for specific fan games, (maybe a small sections in general though). If there isn't a specific merge location, then delete would be fine - clearly doesn't pass WP:GNG at this time. Best Wishes,  Lee Vilenski (talk • contribs) 17:27, 24 January 2020 (UTC)
 * I wouldn't even call for a separate list. The idea of Pokemon fan games is just barely notable, so a standalone is not a good idea (and will draw "hey, post my homefan fan project!" type entries). Plus, with the recent release of Temtem, a section in Pokémon (video game series) of Legacy, with "games inspired by Pokemon" and "Fan-made games" (Alongside Nintendo's avid takedown of such games, per ), there is a very comfy fit for all that there. --M asem (t) 01:40, 25 January 2020 (UTC)

 * Regarding the relisting comment, I think it would be simpler to simply delete because there is not much in the article in question and there will only a small mention of it in the article it is being put in to.  Spy-cicle💥   Talk? 11:18, 1 February 2020 (UTC)
