Procrastination is fun but I got a couple of bits of good news this week regarding finals so, despite 2 exams still to go before Thanksgiving, I took a few minutes to put together a new page for Diamond/Pearl/Platinum. It details the new easter egg event occuring in Platinum as well as two others. Go to Easter Eggs to see it.
I'd be enthused if you voted in the current poll because your opinions matter! That said this is now our shortest update ever...

No news in the PokéWorld so I'm going to make this brief...
We have our first affiliate, The Cave of Dragonflies! Many thanks for affiliating with us! Their button and any future affiliates' buttons will be located in our footer.
As a result of that, what better time to write up a page detailing affiliation than now? Exactly... So, here it is. I've also included a link to that page in our footer for ease of access.
With that out of the way I'm going to reiterate, real quick, the fact that I will likely be relatively quiet, again, until exams conclude in early December. Of course I'm fond of procrastination so you never really know...

First, some news... From December 1 - January 15 Nintendo will be distributing the Member Card item to activate the Darkrai event in Pokémon Platinum via WiFi. For more on that go here.
A month and a half later... I guess the semester caught up with me pretty quickly and I still do not expect a lot of visible work to show up here until the conclusion of finals in early December. I guess I made the mistake of saying I'd attempt to get pages up periodically in the interim of datamining for our PokéDex and for that I apologize.
Know that I have done a massive amount of work on the front of our PokéDex and that will most definately conclude itself and see the light of day in December, along with several other mini-sections.
Those who run our YouTube account have been working on Ranger: Shadows of Almia gameplay videos and those should be up later today. More videos will be uploaded to our channel so use that link to go there for later additions.
For now, here's the first video that Trigger put together...
Realize that embedded YouTube videos affect the validation of webpages. Any errors returned in our validation are only the result of embedded YouTube videos...
So, again, apologies for the utter lack of work here but school > hobby-site. However, December will yeild the biggest updates to this website ever! Promise.

Ok, so I'm technically two days late... I forgot the Presidential Debate was on Friday night.
ANYWAYS we've got a massive update here! To start things off, as promised, I composed a page that covers the story behind the new banner, for that go to read Gyarados of Kanagawa.
I've also mentioned the fact that our News Archive section was operating without an index or way of navigating to old stories (at least without searching the forum for those links). So I've gotten the index for that taken care of, it is here. For now it comes with no additional navigation because this is only the 13th story posted and saved in the engine (and I have no others...).
Last but certainly not least there is a slew of new DPP pages! The new pages detail the legends in each of the games based in Sinnoh. Use the following list to check them out...
While managing those pages I determined that I was borderlined wasting some of my time. This is because I want pages like that to be able to link out to respective pages in, at least, the PokéDex. It was then that it occured to me that while I was working on the script, but somewhat dreading the mass data assembly that remained [technically this is only 489 Pokémon but meh], all I was referencing were Sinnoh native Pokémon. I determined, at a total of 210, that I would essentially halt massive DPP page outings like this [still putting out a page every few days to keep a steady pace] but that I would focus on the data entry for Sinnoh Dex Pokémon.
The benefit there is that there will be an established Dex to link these articles to. It would also permit testing of the script I developed to manage it and work out any kinks before going all out with another 283 entries! So, I'm not going to tie myself down with a date but know that the only data left to compile here is the actual PokéData and who gets what from Platinum Move Tutors. All else is already assembled.
Point is, like the last few days, I'm going to be moving a bit slow, things are happening, and in due time you'll begin to see the evidence. Until then, late.
