New Sprites, and Fixed Info

Also, I have put up sprites of Kemusso, Taneboo and Hasuboo with more to come. Click Latios to go to the New Pokémon section where all this is contained:

Lots of Updated Stuff

Bad News

Start with the good...in the recent Famitsu (a japanese gaming magazine), Pokémon Ruby/Sapphire earnt a whopping 34/40. Just below what green and gold got when they first arrive (and standards have gone up since then)

Onto the bad news, famitsu mentioned that there are no more new types in Ruby and Sapphire. A Dissappointment for some, but hope for others for more type development in under-utilised types

Until Tomorrow. See Ya

    Recently, an advert for Advance Generation and Ruby/Sapphire was released in japan (paper, not video) and it featured all the confirmed R/S Pokémon on it (excluding Jiiransu) and 2 brand new Pokémon.
