The Anime Section
Tuesday, January 30, 2001
BY: Mewtwo
I've been updating the Anime Section a lot, and is known as the Pokemon Anime (section) actually. I've been adding a lot of pictures, and new summaries and reviews for the movies. As I am typing, I am adding more and more pictures of Pokemon 3 The Movie, or Lord of the Unown Tower, or Emperor of the Crystal Tower in Japan. Currently, the Pokemon Games section is the largest, with tons of cheats, walkthroughs, reviews, and other info. But the Pokemon Anime section is catching up very quickly. But no matter how big it gets, I always have 50 MB!!! To go to the Pokemon Anime section or Pokemon Games section, just look for it on the sidebar. You'll see it very easily.

Crystal Coming Soon
Monday, January 29, 2001
BY: Mewtwo
Pokemon Crystal could possibly come to North America. Are you sure, you ask me. Well, I'm sure enough to type this up! According to PokeMasters.com, Pokemon Crystal is scheduled to be released in UK. As we think about this, we know that everything that comes to those countries should come to ours, or mine. So what I'm really trying to say is: Yeah, it's comin'.

As you can probably see, I removed quite a few affiliates. They're hits are either way too low, or didn't put my link up. I didn't contact them, and I won't be.


Hmm, Can't Think Of A Subject

I'm fixing some broken links, which is quite hard to fix. I thought everything was uploaded nicely already, but I guess that I was wrong. Now I have a lot of stuff to do, but not enough time to do it. I've added a new Johto Episode List. To check it out, just go to Anime on the left side bar and click Episode List after that.

Have You Caught All Three?

Nintendo wants to know what Lengerdary Pokemon you have caught in Gold/Silver. Tell them by click here.

Some good news now. It looks like I still have access to the school computer these days, so now I can update as ususal. I will be adding a few pictures in the Pokemon Picture Archive, and new summaries for the Pokemon movies.


Nothing Much

There's not much to talk about. The only thing I want to say is that Pokemon Dome is losing hits badly, and need all your support. So I'm only asking you to please visit the site often, everyday if possible. Oh yeah, there's not much news in the Pokemon world currently. And happy Chinese New Year to you Chinese folks out there. See ya.

Last week, Pokemon was at #11, but looks like it's back to #7. Now for some bad news. It's a new semester for my school, and I used to work in the office of the school, whcih contains a computer. But now, they made me change classes, so I don't have access to the school computer anymore. The school computer is where I get 70% of my internet time. So I guess this site won't be updated that much. But, soon, my parents will let me go online full time, just like before.

If you have submited a Pokemon joke recently, I will be posting those up, so don't get angry. Oh, yeah, the forums opened. The new forums, that is. To go there, just click on the link below.

 Cartoon Network
 Monday, January 22, 2001
BY: Mewtwo
Cartoon Network is part of Time Warner, and I'm sure that most of you have heard this before. They show many cartoons. Well, it looks like Cartoon Network will be showing Pokemon. Right now, Cartoon Network is only showing Pokemon in LA, but soon, the whole country. I have heard that KIDS' WB will continue to show Pokemon, and I hope that they will, since I don't have cable!!! To me, this is bad news. But maybe for you, it's good!

Now, for some good news. Poke Crater, a site that I have always liked, might affiliate with Pokemon Dome. The webmaster's going to consider it first, though. If we do become affiliates, then Pokemon Dome will become a huge site in just a few weeks!!!


 More Stuff Coming Up
 Sunday, January 21, 2001
BY: Mewtwo
Sorry for not updating news in such a long time. A new message board will be arriving. As I've mentioned before, many links are down, and many pages are up for repairs. The Arcade, which features many games, will be up soon with even more games than before. I'll be getting a staff section up so any body who would like to work at Pokemon Dome will get a change to do that. And I'm also trying to get a Gold/Silver Pokemon list up soon. That's all for now, just like always.

 Welcome To The New Pokemon Dome!!!
 Wednesday, January 17, 2001
BY: Mewtwo
Hello, all visitors of the new and more advanced Pokemon Dome. Like the layout? I hope you do. It took me a million years to get that done :p ! There will be no more news updaters, since Pokemon Dome can't have News Pro anymore, and we're back to plain old HTML. But I promise you, I will update news as often as possible. Right now I'm working so hard on the new Episode List, which features the episode number in Japan and North America, the name of that episode, and a brief summary. But some episodes just can't be brief, so I'll be working very hard on that, and also the new Pokemon Picture Archive, which will, that is will, contain tons of cool Pokemon pictures. And I bet you noticed that the side bar is a whole lot shoter, and I removed the right side bar. Well, to get to all those places you used to go, simply choose one of those links. For example, if you wanted a Red/Blue walkthrough, you will need to go under the "Pokemon Games" section. Well, that's all for now. Come back often for more updates and news!!!

Change of Servers

 Lycos, Now That's Bad

1 Dragonball
2 Britney Spears
3 Napster
4 IT/Ginger
5 Martin Luther King, Jr.
6 NFL
7 U.S. Postal Service
8 Las Vegas
9 Tattoos
10 Dean Kamen
11 Pokemon
12 Final Fantasy
13 Temptation Island
14 The IRS
15 WWF

Wow. Would ya look at that? Pokemon has really gone down this time. It's just horrible. Pokemon has gone from number 7 and now it's in 11!!! That's just wrong... People really need to keep up their Poke-spirit these days. If Crystal will be released here in North America (which probably won't be released), Pokemon will rock like it never rocked before.

Well, the new site will be up probably in two more days. The problem is, I haven't really decided if I should be in the current new server, since I just found a newer better server. They will only give me FTP access tomorrow, so that means I won't know what the new server will be until tomorrow, or Saturday.

SOMETHING ELSE THAT YOU ALL SHOULD KNOW:
Well, the new layout is 100% done. The only problem is that I can't get Newspro on the new server. That also means that there won't be any more news updaters updating, except for me. I'm also working on a new Episode List, which will only appear in the new site. Then I'll need to get some more pictures. And if you noticed, Pokemon Dome is rockin', as in getting a lot of visitors. I am currently seeing that Pokemon Dome is in #250 in Pokemon Village Topsites, which is great! Just a few days ago, we were still wandering in the 300s. So I say to all of you, keep up the visiting, to get me - ehem!-, I mean Pokemon Dome more visitors. Thank you.

 Stadium 2 Box

I've just found the Stadium 2 box, as you can probably see. Nothing much, except I've got a new affiliate. It's a pretty big site that gets a lot of hits, called Maktos. CLICK HERE to go.

I know that's a weird subject, but that's how I feel. I had been very stupid, since I put this weird code in the SSI, which helped the new server go bazooki (whatever that means). So, I am glad to say that the new server is good now. I am uploading everything from this server to the new server. There is a huge delay, but everything will soon be done.

 Alright

Well, Pokemon Dome is going okay, but Hypermart might kick us out any minute. The new server really sucks, and I'm trying to get a domain and a sponsor for the site. So if Hypermart shuts me down, the site will be down for quite a time.

As you can probably see, the banner of the winner of the contest is on the top of every page. If you win, you could have it on every page, except now, I will be putting those banners on the bottom of the pages.

My affiliate, Majikarp's Secret Society, has a domain. To check it out, go to www.thekarp.com.

Pokemon Crystal was released in Japan on December 23rd. Nintendo has announced that it has officially reached over 1,000,000 copies sold. Well, to be more exact 1,065,804. With this kind of well, good, should I say, sales, hopefully, Nintendo will release this game in North America. That's all for now, stay tuned for more news.

Sometime this year I think, Nintendo is going to be bringing up a new game system called "Game Cube"! I have had this news for a while but now is the right time to put it up. I don't know when it is coming out but here is a pic of the graphics on it. For more info go to http://nintendo.com

-2 Dragonball (What? Pokemon should be here!)

-4 Santa Claus (Only little kids would believe in this!)
-5 Napster (Whatever the heck that is!)
-6 New Year (This is over too, get a life)
-7 Pokemon (Should be number one.)
-8 NFL (Don't have any feelings 'bout football)
-9 Final Fantasy (Cool... That's all I can say)
-10 Playstation 2 (Very cool)

 Pokemon Winter Movie!

BY: blastieslair
For the third straight year, as the creators of the Japanese Pocket Monsters television series have produced a special winter episode only available on video. While the previous "Pikachu’s Winter Vacation" and "Pikachu’s Winter Vacation 2000" videos were released on a single tape each, the brand-new "Pichu and Pikachu’s Winter Vacation 2001" is a deluxe two-tape collection featuring three exciting cartoons. On the first tape is "We are the Pichu Brothers” starring two very perky Pichu having fun with several of their Poke-friends. The second tape features "Delibird’s Present" and "White Story," two all-new cartoons that will please Pokemon fans of all ages. As with the previous releases, the new videos will only be on sale for a limited time at Japanese department store.

 A New Year
 Monday, January 1, 2001 - 12:19 PM
BY: Mewtwo
Happy New Year all!!! A new year, a new month, and a new millenium! According to the news, the 21st century begins today! Anyways, the contest winner is one of my affiliates, the webmaster of G/S Poke Center. I e-mailed him already. I'm also proud to announce that we have a new staff! He will be updating news (hopefully today), and writing codes for the site. About the new layout, well, it isn't really done. I realize that I have a lot of work to do...
