We’re back!

Apologies for the very long absence but our host changed a few settings against our wishes and this caused us to be unable to login for some reason, which meant we couldn’t add any posts or do anything.

We received no help from our host or WordPress support forums about our issue so we were left to figure it out on our own which is unfortunately why we were down for so long. In the end I had to completely delete and reinstall everything. While most things are back up and working again, unfortunately the menu and our affiliates/topsites boxes were not saved by WordPress. I didn’t know this so I never kept a backup of them. The menu will be back up soon but I have no idea who I was affiliated with now so please if you were an affiliate get back in touch with me!

As is to be expected we lost a lot of traffic during our downtime but I’m pleased to announce now that we’re back we should be resuming our usual regular update schedule so be sure to bookmark us and visit often!

Members Card Available For Platinum pt2

Yeah, this seems like a bit of a repeat – but its true… in the last news post I said that only American players can get the Members Card that allows them to go catch a Darkrai, well Ryan659 has informed me that European players can also access the Wi-Fi and download the members card as well…

I’m sure that I checked the European Platinum website and it had no details on the Members Card event, yet now it has. No idea on the actual end date, so it’s most likely the same as the Aemrican one, September 13th

Bring you more news when we learn it (or when our wonderful members point it out to us)

Members Card Available for Platinum

We’re still experiancing a lot of technical difficulties around the site. We’re still trying to fix them. It’s possible that the site will go down at some point while our hosts do something, this will last no more than a day but unfortunatly will not be at our control so this is the only warning you’ll get about it. Right, on to the actual news.

Good news for American Pokemon Platinum players. The first Wi-Fi downloadable event item is now available to download. Ok, so technically the Secret Key was the first, but that would only get you into a room to access Rotom’s other forms – this Memebers card will help you actually CATCH your own Darkrai… how cool is that?

You can download the card at anytime between now and September 13th, but you’ll have to beat the elite four, got the national dex and seen Crisselia before you can meet Darkrai at New Moon Island.

Also interesting to note, Pokemon.com has just revealed the 493rd Pokemon, Arceus, on their website. This is actually strange as Darkrai and Shaymin were revealed in the later weeks of 2007 and 2008 respectivally. So this is an early reveal for Pokemon.com – The question is why? It could be to match up with the release of Arceus in Japan (which is available to download from Japanese Cinema’s) OR it could be beacuse the next Arceus event will be a lot earlier than the last 2 ‘new’ pokemon events, even being towards the end of this year. Whatever the reason, nothing’s being revealed yet. We’ll let you know when it is.

Thanks to Pikalover1234 on the forums for the heads up on those two peices of news… head on over to our forums now to join in the discussions.

Oh – side note, new Pokemon TCG set, Supreme Victors is released on August 19th.
