Merging?

Since it's a worthless stub, I suggest merging it with Gym Leader. Would it be a good move? Just make sure to put other languages section in Gym Leader article if it's decided to merge the page. --Maxim 12:24, 2 February 2009 (UTC)

Maybe. There is a discussion in the forums about it.--Clarky13 12:27, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
No. This article is about the trainer class, not the characters. Yes, they are similar, but they remain quite different. It just needs improvement. — THE TROM — 10:14, 17 February 2009 (UTC)
Wait, huh? How are the 'Leader' trainer class and the 'Gym Leader' position any different? They both refer to the same thing... Anyway, I suggest a merge. Do we have to vote or something, or are we just discussing for now? Memo326 00:11, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
This article should NOT be merged. It specifically provides information regarding the Gym Leaders in the Pokémon games. The article Gym Leader heavily references the Anime. AUXIA 02:09, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
Well, they're still the same subject. We are not proposing a mere deletion of this page, but a merging to the Gym Leader one, so if you feel that this one addresses the games and the other the anime, if they became merged, the 'Gym Leader' page would talk about Gym Leaders in the games and anime (which happen to be the same thing)... (the Gym Leaders in both mediums, not the mediums themselves, I mean.)Memo326 04:39, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
  • Yes, they are technically the same thing. But if the decision is made to merge the articles, it might be a good idea to have one section of the article dedicated to the Anime and another to the games. Furthermore, if they are merged, I think a link to the Gym Leader article should remain in the list of Trainer Classes, as they are, technically, a separate class.

Heavily references the anime? Having a section on the Orange Islands is not "heavily references". TTEchidna 23:25, 19 February 2009 (UTC)
MERGE with Gym Leader. ---LūgīāRōcks (Tālk δ Ēdīts) 01:33, 25 November 2009 (UTC)

Merging (cont.)

Everybody still up for merging?--Clarky13 11:02, 4 March 2009 (UTC)

I'm against the merge.--Sher-e-Bengal- 11:13, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
I'm in favor of the merge. =) Memo326 15:19, 4 March 2009 (UTC)
Okay, no one came here in the past months, but I am in favor of merging. -- RikkiKitsune 20:32, 22 September 2009 (UTC)
I'm with merging. CuboneKing 22:42, 14 November 2009 (UTC)
As stated above: MERGE ---LūgīāRōcks (Tālk δ Ēdīts) 01:33, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
No merge. It is actually a trainer class. Then our little trainer class box at the bottom of the page has a link to an actual trainer class that was merged to Gym Leader because everyone thought they were the same. They aren't so deal with it. (No offense). Find a way to include the fact that the Trainer Class was actually Leader not Gym Leader, then go ahead. If not, then don't.--Smartkidhen (So I saw this sign that said Red VelvetTeam Galatic has plans!) 01:51, 25 November 2009 (UTC)
They aren't "the same" in the English versions because of the character limit. In Japanese, it's the same, and it was intended to be the same in English, undoubtedly. Now, I'm either for us moving everything to X (Trainer class) [because that's how we do it with other things, we don't have Psychic and Psychic, Double Team and Double Team, and not Leader and Fire Blast or merging this.

Merging makes sense. The two articles are about the same thing, regardless of what media they describe. We don't have seperate articles on Gyms in the anime and games. And the fact that it describes a specific Trainer class is also a non-issue. Mysticalman redirects to Eusine, after all. Couldn't the Gym Leader page have information about the Trainer class as well? --AndyPKMN 20:31, 6 December 2009 (UTC)
