RFV sense {{lb|en|fandom slang}} {{initialism of|Pokémon X and Y|lang=en}}. Doesn't this need to meet WT:BRAND? SpinningSpark 10:40, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
- I'm going to try and find some citations for it. Just a note: I created the Pokémon sense of XY and other entries for abbreviations of Pokémon games today. Apart from XY, they are: RBY, RGBY, GS, GSC, RS, RSE, DP, DPP, HGSS, BW, BW2 and ORAS.
- Other abbreviations for video games I found: LoL (League of Legends), FF (Final Fantasy) and MOO (Master of Orion). --Daniel Carrero (talk) 11:04, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
- Note: Probably some of those are attestable in the form "Pokémon GSC" (with the word "Pokémon") in a way that meets WT:BRAND. I'll try to confirm that later. --Daniel Carrero (talk) 11:13, 4 November 2015 (UTC)
- WT:BRAND doesn't really apply here, since these aren't the actual titles of video games, but rather fan-created shorthand for the titles of video games. -Cloudcuckoolander (talk) 18:27, 7 November 2015 (UTC)
- Delete even though I was the creator of that entry. BRAND or not, I don't think I'll be able to attest that one, sorry. I added a bunch of Pokémon abbreviations in a single day like FRLG and GSC. I think some may be attestable, but XY does not seem to be. See Category:en:Pokémon for the other abbreviations. --Daniel Carrero (talk) 03:44, 27 February 2016 (UTC)
