Well, I've been extremely busy with school lately. However, if anyone is interested in hosting and wants to help the site, you can help out by signing up with our host. I've put a button on the sidebar. Each signup with "Shining Arcanine" as the referrer gives Pokemon Fan Universe 1 month of free hosting.

There was an outage between about 7:00 and 9:45 AM EST. When my host woke up he resolved it. Everything should be fine now.

Since it is now spring, I'm switching the default theme from snowflakes to pokeballs.

I've uploaded version 1.4.4.1 of the pokedex, here is the change log:

-Fixed Pokemon Egg Steps data so it doesn't display N/A when it should display a number
-Seperated RBY/GSC statistics from RS/FrLg statistics
-Changed formula a bit for RS and FrLG to display proper statistics
-Fixed Eevee Entry's RS TM/HM data
-Changed all References of FL to FrLg
-Removed : from titles

This fixes every bug/inaccuracy I know of besides the fact that Deoxys has different statistics in RS, Fr, and Lg. I'm evaluating methods of modifying how the dex works to accomediate for this.

Well, I've been super busy with school as of late so I haven't had time to make news updates. -_-

However, out of curiousity, I did try something that should make IE 5.5 view the site correctly. If you are having trouble viewing the site, please try pressing Ctrl + F5 to refresh the cached copy of the site's stylesheet in your browser if it hasn't refreshed automatically.

According to Nintendo of Europe, the offical European Release date for Pokemon Colosseum is May 14th, 2004. Considering that is only two months after the US release, maybe one day we will have a single worldwide release date for each new game. ^_^

According to pokemon.com anyone in the US can now fix the berry glitch (one year after starting the game, the berry gardens dry up and starting over won't fix it) in Pokémon Ruby and Sapphire by visiting GameStop. Pokemon.com also mentions that you get a special gift. I think I'll tell you what that gift is now, you will get a shiny Zigzagoon holding a Liechi Berry. All the more reason to visit GameStop. ^_^

It seems safe to say that Kids WB has the rights to show Pokemon Season 7 considering that there is this page on the offical Kids WB website. According to that, on the 13th, Kids WB will be showing a sneak preview called the "Future of Pokemon." I will be prepared to record the sneak preview this time. I will say this now, I am not going to make it avaliable for download as that would be illegal. However, maybe I'll put up some screenshots after I record the preview. ^_^

Considering that the site is going to cost $250 total this year, I've reuploaded the old Paypal donate button. If anyone wants to help out fund wise, feel free to donate.

Meowth346 of Pokemon Forever has posted news stating that the offical japanese pokemon has 3D artwork of the RS and FrLg trainers. The RS Boy hero, the RS Girl hero, the FrLG Boy hero and the FrLG Girl hero. Congladulations on finding out about this Meowth.

In other news, Pika of pokeguide.tk has granted Pokemon Fan Universe permission to use the new FrLg sprites that he obtained from FrLg. Thanks Pika! I will update the Credits page with a thankyou as soon as I find some time.

I just found out about a news article at rediff.com. According it to it, it seems that an organization known as the RSS doesn't like Pokemon and wants the Indian government (the government of India) to place heavy taxes on any company that promotes Pokemon.

Personally, I think the RSS should leave Pokemon alone.
