So new episodes are finally playing again. The two today turned out to both be filler with the first episode far better then the second. In my opinion anyway. So to keep you up to date on the next new episodes and various repeats I've updated the Episodes on TV listing once more. I've also added the Who's That POKéMON? for todays episodes in the Hoenn section.

Alright! I've added 6 new game reviews, 5 from Nintendo Power all covering the current generation of games, and 1 from Gamepro on POKéMON Snap.
In the News has 2 new articles featured. One is from 1997 and the other 1999. Good stuff.
Also as a reminder to those who can go to the POKéMON Center in New York, Fr/Lg will be on sale tommorow wether you pre-ordered or not while supplies last. Plus two new episodes of POKéMON Advanced air at 10 & 10:30 a.m. (eastern time) tommorow morning!

There we go! I worked hard all day and night and I'm pleased to say all the Pokénomics sections got stuff.
New things include a bunch of game reviews and links to reviews of Poké Movies. Also I've added about a dozen articles to In the News section. Some date back to '99 so they'll be sure to bring back some memories!

As you can see over to the side there, I've added a whopping 4 new sections. Each will play a part in archiving POKéMON's nearly 10 year history.
Right now there's only info in the Game Sales & TV Ratings sections but I'm working on more to come!

Taking small steps here in improving the site overall. Hope the changes aren't too radical for you guys but if you survived my recoloring of it earlier this summer, all should be well. The tv guide is now on the left side below all them main links to provide some balance to each side, among other changes.
As for content I added in the last few episode titles for season 6 and the first title for season 7 in the Hoenn section.

KidsWB is friggin stupid. They're forcing an early title and intro change on Advanced. *sigh* Watch for "POKéMON Advanced Challenge" coming in a few weeks.
I've updated the Hoenn WTP? listing. Unfortunately since KidsWB is airing random episodes this coming week, I won't be able to finish it for some time. *sigh!*
And to see just how random the episodes are, check out the Eps on TV guide down below. Freshly updated for the coming week. I made note of the new episodes that are coming so if you miss them it's not my fault!

Hello again! As you can see I've updated the coming releases once more. September is going to be a big month for POKéStuff. And with all the new GBA Video data in, I've added them to the dvd listing.
Also KTLA has listed "Jump for Joy" and "A Different Kind of Misty" for the 28th at 10 and 10:30 a.m. eastern. Finally, new episodes! Be prepared!

Game Sales, GBA Video

Here they are! The NPD sales for July are in and while Colosseum's went down, R/S's went up. So it's a mixed bag. GBA Video sales went way up, and unfortunately, POKéMON Box has no available sales data due to it only being sold through the POKéMON Center.
POKéMON Channel - Sales: 4333
POKéMON Colosseum - Sales: 28,971
POKéMON Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire - Sales: 6429
POKéMON Ruby - Sales: 59,267
POKéMON Sapphire - Sales: 50,075
POKéMON Video Vol.1 - Sales: 40,879
POKéMON Video Vol.2 - Sales: 26,751
And speaking of the GBA Video stuff a friend has told me 2 more volumes are on the way, and EBgames and Gamestop both confirm it. Once boxart and episode titles are made available I suppose I'll add them as a sub-section to the dvd listing.

Fr/Lg, Guide

Alright I've spent all day working on this update so like it or lump it.
The full Effort Guide can now be found in the R/S POKéDEX and Other Info sections.
Split guides for it exist in R/S, Colosseum, and the newly opened Fr/Lg section. And for the time being a lot of the stuff in the Fr/Lg part are crossovers from the R/S info.

There's 6 more Hoenn WTP?'s added to the list. By the way, all grammar and spelling errors for those are wholly 4Kids fault, I transcribe them exactly as they're shown. Also I'm testing abit of color with the TV schedule. Hope it doesn't hurt anyones eyes.. ::sweatdrop::

Items, Games

Okay I found some item lists for G/S/C & R/S lying around over on my site so since there weren't any here I filled in the gaps by putting them up. They're complete for the most part..so hopefully no one will have a problem with them.
Over on the side you can see I went and added Fr/LG to the upcoming releases list. Just about a month from release and tv ads have begun. Also if you're in New York reserve them at the Pokémon Center you'll be able to pick them up over a week before national release, Saturday August 28th. I'll most surely be jealous of you who get it then!

Last season (Sept. '03 to May '04), our beloved little POKéMON managed to edge out viewership over Yu-gi-oh!
POKéMON - 3.6 (average rating over 47 airings on Saturdays)
Yu-gi-oh! - 3.5 (average rating over 46 airings on Saturdays)
Also POKéMON came in 1st place 16 times. It's nearest competitor? Yu-gi-oh! at 10 times.
Seems the combination of Advanced and the ever-growing R/S userbase managed to put cardboy in second place. Not gloating or anything, just thought us POKéFans would enjoy this little news byte.

Ready to start off a new month right? Good! I got up to coming weekds tv schedule and of note, the weekday POKéHour on WB is over. That stinks but it's best not to overplay it for to long. I added a bunch more Hoenn WTP?'s and also added just a bit of missed info to Ash, May, Max, & Jessie's profiles.
