+ Lists, Guides

Lindsay / Tuesday, August 30th 2005 6:31 PM

Many things have been made and added today. Each of the old games (R/B/Y/G/S/C) have been given POKéMON Listings similar to what the newer ones have gotten. These of course list which PKMN can be gotten in each version.

Also I've added a Mini-Games & Secrets guide for POKéMON Stadium. By the way, the pre-order bonus deal for XD has begun. Reserve the game at most major retailers to get the neat vinyl skin to spiff up your Gamecube with.

+ Games, Boxart

Lindsay / Monday, August 29th 2005 7:51 PM

Boxarts gallore! There were a lot of size inconsistancies with game boxarts before and some didn't even have any posted..! But that's all changed now as I dug deep and added matching sizes and filling in missing ones. Also I've updated the minor game pages to take on the style and looks of the current game pages.

The next season of POKéMON will have the subtitle "Advanced Battle." Man that's lame. Blame KidsWB. In unrelated news, POKéMON is back on Cartoon Network seven days a week in rather crappy timeslots. But better for it to be on then not..

+ Emerald, Text 'dex

Lindsay / Tuesday, August 20th 2005 6:35 PM

Hello again. Today I get back to adding a good amount of content. What could it be? For starters a Trainer Hill guide has been added for the Emerald section.

Along with that, Gen3 PKMN have had their Text 'dex entries updated to include what Emerald has to say about them.

By the way I'll probably hold off work on the POKéDEX until after XD is out. Adding Emerald info is going to take alot of work and who knows what info from XD I'll have to add so I'll save up my energy by doing smaller things until I can get the big one done in one shot.

Some more dvd coverarts for Advanced Challenge and also the first Advanced boxset so they've been added to the dvd section.

Also as you can see I'm once again tinkering and further refining the layout of this place. I hope its acceptable!

+ Hardware, Dvds

Lindsay / Sunday, August 14th 2005 5:49 PM

The Hardware page has been updated to include images of the first two POKé-style Nintendo DS systems. I really like that Mew one. . .

I've found the boxart for the first Advanced Challenge dvd as you can see. So that spurred me to update the dvd section to include the currently announced first four AC dvds. As per the Advanced dvds, it seems these will also be 5 episodes a disc. Viz better not mess up like they did with Johto and end up not putting AC 51 & 52 on disc~

+ News, Game Sales, Ratings

Lindsay / Saturday, August 6th 2005 4:24 PM

Alright today I've updated the game sales and tv ratings pages to include the last 5 months of data. As you can see Emerald is off to a very great start saleswise as it blew past 1 million in just two months. For the tv ratings you can see that the tv series has been tying for or having the highest ratings each week this season which is always good.

Speaking of goodness, it's rumored there will be a $99 Gamecube + POKéMON XD bundle this fall. If you don't yet have a GC and love POKéMON this will be the deal to get!

+ Hello!

Lindsay / Friday, August 5th 2005 3:43 PM

We're back! After months of pain it seems as though things will get back on track here so be on the lookout for resumed updating and a heck of a backlog to fill out! For now though I've added notice of a couple of upcoming releases and this weeks tv schedule.
