Default Pokémon.com gets a major facelift

Pokémon.com, the official website from The Pokémon Company International, has updated with a drastically different layout from before. Now it takes on a nice 3-dimensional appears and features new content for Pokémon Rumble, Pokémon Mystery Dungeon: Explorers of Sky, and Pokémon HeartGold & SoulSilver. Here are some of the new features:
  • (HTTPS enabled) Create a custom profile and trainer card! Through this zone, you can create a trainer, earn tokens, view (and join) leaderboards, join TCG leagues, and sign up for the official newsletter.
  • Play fun Pokémon-themed games! Three new Pokémon games, which allow you to earn tokens for usage on the trainer design, are playable on the website: Turtwig's Target Smash, Pachirisu's Click-Clack Attack, and Munchlax's Berry Bonanza.
  • Watch full TV episodes online! Starting with the first three episodes of Season 1, Pokémon episodes are now available on the official site for watching online from your computer. (Cartoon Network has provided this service for some time.)
  • Download wallpapers and screensavers! With 82 wallpapers and 3 screensavers, there are many downloads available to spice up your computer with a little bit of Pokémon.

The official Pokémon TCG website has also merged into the main website. Currently, there is information regarding Pokémon Trading Card Game: HeartGold and SoulSilver.

This website has regional information for these countries:
  • Argentina
  • Australia
  • Austria
  • Belgium
  • Brazil
  • Canada
  • Chile
  • Czech Republic
  • Denmark
  • Finland
  • France
  • Germany
  • Greece
  • Hong Kong
  • Italy
  • Japan
  • Malta
  • Netherlands
  • Norway
  • Poland
  • Portugal
  • Spain
  • Sweden
  • Switzerland
  • United Kingdom
  • United States

Fancy! That looks nice - Now I can get the anime easily!
Why they don't ever update www.pokemon.co.uk is a mystery. There's no news, it's as if Platinum has just been released, nothing on Heart Gold or Soul Silver, and it doesn't show any games from before the GBA era.

Yeah, you're right. Maybe Pokémon.com will adopt other countries as time passes, using the United States as its starting project?

The new site is really awesome, although it takes some time to load.

According to the FAQ, if your country isn't listed, maybe it will be added in the future.

This is a very nice site upgrade, and finally gives me an excuse to get an actual desktop background that isn't the default Windows one.

Those backgrounds are totally sweet. I might use some of them in my remix videos.

And those anime episodes are very nice quality considering how quickly they seem to buffer.
