Sunday: Pokémon of the Week29-11-2009- 10:44 GMT / 05:44 EST by Serebii
I have started updating a variety of pages that I have inadvertantly left un-updated, including Animé Character biographies. If there's a thing you think I should update, let me know. With that in mind, with the release of HeartGold & SoulSilver in the US just a few months away, if there's anything we haven't covered on the site that you'd like me to cover, contact me with these details.
Since Heart Gold & Soul Silver have been released, the Chatroom & WiFi Chatroom have been booming with discussion & trade respectively so be sure to visit them.
