It's time for a bi-annual TCG update! This time I've added the text entries and scans for both Flashfire and Furious Fists; hopefully it will not take me as long as to scan up Phantom Forces when it comes out in two weeks! Additionally, because I added them to my collection after years of ignoring them, we also now have actual scans of Base Set 2 and...

Posted by Frost on 20 Jun 2014 at 9:07am PDT
Mega Sableye has been added to the official Pokemon ORAS website, revealing that its ability is Magic Bounce, its type remains as Dark/Ghost, and that it receives boosted Defense and Special Attack in exchange for lowered Speed. While retaining Sableye's height of 1'8", it is also significant heavier at 354.9 pounds. His Sugimori art is also there:...
Picdex Update: Animated Sprites for Black & White, and X & Y![Expand]
Posted by Serpentsounds on 18 Jun 2014 at 2:53am PDT
Our picdex has been fleshed out a bit further with the animated sprites for Black and White as well as Black and White 2 versions. In addition, with a special thanks to PkParaíso, we now have animated sprites and the updated Pokemon menu icons for X & Y versions. Check them all out at our Picdex now!
Better late than never, but I've finally gotten around to scanning new additions to my collection. I got sidetracked back in October because of XY's release, and then I took a bit of a break from Pokemon, but I've gotten back into the TCG and have new scans for the following: -Legendary Treasures and Radiant Collection (COMPLETE) -XY Base Set (COMPLETE...
I suppose these updates work better if I actually post them, huh? Obviously it's been a while since this page was updated, but you've probably noticed several new things popping up over the last few weeks. The most obvious bit you likely spotted a while ago; the Psydex has stats, moves, and more, per the usual. To go along with that, there is the Gen...
We've been busy since the last update. I'll jump right into it. First off, you'll notice that the TechDex now include Generation VI attacks. Any changes to old attacks will be coming in a future update. Next up, there are two new guides for XY; one for the Player Search System and one for Pokemon Amie. We've also updated the Mega Evolution guide to...
So, first thing's first; you might have noticed that the site's been loading a little faster lately. I've been (and will continue to be) reworking things on the server to help optimize everything. That being said, if you see problems anywhere, be sure to let us know. The Psydex has been given a chunk of XY information to display, including all the...
Posted by Elite4 Admin on 20 Oct 2013 at 1:00am PDT
Many apologies for the server outages that we've been experiencing. In future, listen for updates on our Facebook page should the site go down. We should be back to normal by now, so let us know if you're still experiencing some problems. Anyway, we've updated the Psydex with all the new XY Pokemon, as well as the Mega Evolutions. We are still trying...
When I first fantasized about having card scans on Psypoke years ago, it was mostly so we could have all of the TCG artwork on each Pokemon's individual Picdex pages. At the time, I knew of no other sites that had a feature like that and it was an idea that I had always wanted to see happen. Well, now that we have card scans on Psypoke, we finally got...
First thing's first, you'll find that the Psydex includes the new forms and Pokedex entries for all Pokemon. Further updates to the Psydex are forthcoming. In a similar vein, a Black and White 2 section has been started up, and includes a Gym Leaders and Elite 4 guide. Additional content is on the way. Also, as you may have gathered from the last...
Pokemon/Nobunaga's Ambition Crossover, BW2 release date, et al[Expand]
Posted by Frost on 9 Apr 2012 at 10:43am PDT
Slow month on our part. Let's do a news update round-up! The Pokemon/Nobunaga's Ambition crossover has been retitled Pokemon Conquest and will be released in North America in June 18, 2012. The region, Ransei, has seventeen different territories and is shaped like Arceus. The battling system is somewhat like a tactical RPG and has teams of up to six...
The 3rd year of Psypoke Idol has ended. First, it was Mew. Then it was Lugia. The third Pokemon to claim victory in Psypoke Idol is... Typhlosion with 3.7036 stars.

While many are still having difficulties with the Global Link, don't forget to check out the Befriend a Pokemon minigame if you haven't already. The free Eeveelution from this game will only be available until May 5th. Speaking of special Pokemon, the 14th Movie Victini...

And there's still so much to do... Before we begin, though, our thoughts/prayers/hearts go out to the Japanese people in the wake of this devastating earthquake and tsunami. You may have heard some terrible rumors flying around, but rest assured that Nintendo of Japan and all its staff are safe. Back on the homefront, things have been busy as ever....
With Black and White now released in Europe and North America, we've made several changes around the site. Here's an overview. The Psydex has been updated with location data for most Pokemon. There are a few exceptions - some event-only Pokemon and the White Forest are the most notable, and will soon follow. Related, we have the Unova Region World...
It's been a busy two weeks for us, especially this past week. Here's a breakdown of what's happened. We've invested in our own server. You'll notice that IGN's ads are gone now. As the owners of our new server, we have a much greater degree of control over the website. Of course, this hasn't been without its own set of challenged. We've spent the...
Posted by Elite4 Admin on 4 Mar 2011 at 12:15am PST
Hello everyone! Black and White are out in Europe now. The Psydex has been updated with a wealth of information from the English versions of the games. There's still so much to do of course. Our server is still quite overworked. We're doing our best to adjust things. For right now, leaving the forums offline actually makes a huge difference. The other...
With the Black and White Mall Tour underway, demo versions of the games have confirmed a few more English localizations. Darumaka nearly retains its Japanese name. Oshawott's signature attack is known as Razor Shell, Snivy's is Leaf Tornado, and Tepig's is Flame Charge. In addition to these, Incinerate, the berry-destroying Fire-type attack, keeps...
Our hosts here at IGN have revealed another batch of various English names. Pansage has been confirmed as the Grass Monkey Pokemon with the signature Acrobatics attack Victini's name from the magazine the other day is confirmed Deerling is the Season Pokemon with an optional Sap Sipper ability Basculin is known as the Hostile Pokemon in both of its...
Thanks to the UK's official Nintendo Magazine, we have a few more confirmed English names to add to the Psydex. Doryuuzu is now Excadrill Mamanbou is now Alomomola Kurumiru is now Sewaddle We also have the attacks Struggle Bug and Drill Run. Don't forget to continue picking up the legendary beasts and eventually Celebi at your nearest GameStop store...
Once again, the official website for Black and White (as well as our hosts, IGN) has been updated with new information on Black and White. Your rivals' names are Bianca and Cheren. N will retain his name. Professor Juniper's assistant is Fennel; she'll ask you to bring her some Dream Mist from Munna and Musharna. As for the Pokemon, say hello to -Patrat...
Though actual news from Pokemon sources has been slow lately, things have been keeping busy around here. Over the last week I've been making a lot of little changes to the Psydex. If you'd noticed it acting funny, my apologies; there were a few things I initially overlooked. Everything should be back to normal now, but let me know if anything still...
Happy Halloween everyone! I hope you enjoy the little bit of redecorating we've done for the day. It's always fun to celebrate. Unfortunately, some sad news has turned up over the last few days. Takeshi Shudo, one of the original writers for the Pokemon anime passed away on Friday. He was 61. We are happy to announce, however, that with the successful...
Psydex Locations & Design, Guides, and More[Expand]
Posted by Jigglypuff on 14 Oct 2010 at 8:39am PDT
Since the previous update, we've been hard at work on various things. There's a Mew Event for HeartGold and SoulSilver that begins tomorrow. The Events List itself was also becoming rather convoluted, so I've rearranged things to be easier to read, and to allow us to establish a catalog of past events as well. It was also pointed out to me that while...
Global Link, Black and White, Movies, and more![Expand]
Posted by Jigglypuff on 5 Oct 2010 at 11:54am PDT
Time to catch up on news and other developments. First off, Black and White are still going strong in Japan, having nearly 3.4 million copies since their release. The games are, by all accounts, a huge success. Next up, a 14th Pokemon movie has been announced. It's the first of what will likely be many done in the new Best Wishes! series. You can...
So, what have we been up to? Lots! Much of what we've been up to has been behind-the-scenes sort of work. If you've been poking around the site for the past week, you've probably yalready noticed some of the changes. If you haven't seen them, here's a quick overview of the big changes in the last several days: Various tools have been split up until...
Thank you all for bearing with us during our recent server issues. I'm happy to report that the server is much more stable now - still not 100%, but a vast improvement. Many thanks to our tech support guys for handling that, and I hope we don't give them a heart attack this weekend. We're not the only ones who have been experiencing more traffic than...
Posted by Jigglypuff on 19 Sep 2010 at 10:34am PDT
The Psydex has been substantially updated since the previous update. Check it out!. Our Black and White section is also expanding, but the Psydex is our current priority. Also, the website has seen a significant spike in traffic - we're getting hit with twice as much traffic as we normally do. As such, it's loading rather slowly right now. Please...
HeartGold, SoulSilver, Black, and White Updates[Expand]
Posted by Jigglypuff on 2 Jun 2010 at 9:45pm PDT
So much to do now that summer's underway. Let's start with HeartGold and SoulSilver. Australian players should take note of the Fateful Encounter Jirachi that is now available for all Generation IV games - Diamond, Pearl, Platinum, HeartGold, and SoulSilver - from Toys 'R' Us and select Big W retail stores. Since this is a Fateful Encounter, it will...
Yet another long list of changes. First off, given all the information on the Pokewalker page, it's only natural that it be included in the Psydex and Techdex. -Locations have been updated to include all the Pokewalker Routes you can find a Pokemon on. -Any new moves those Pokemon know are listed as Gift Moves on the Tutored Moves page. -Similarly,...
It's update time again! First off, we've updated the Happiness Guide with information for HGSS. Up next, we've reclassified the way that you can search for attacks in an Effect Search in the Psydex's Attack Search function. Frost has also written up a Critical Hit Guide to explain how the Critical Hit mechanic works in the various generations of...
We've added a handful of new things for all of you playing HeartGold & SoulSilver. First off, we've upgraded the World Map to include all the Trainers you'll encounter in any given location on the Map. We've also upgraded the Gym Leaders & Elite Four pages to include the Abilities and any Held Items for all their Pokemon. The Walkthrough has...
As promised, the official site has provided more details on the upcoming fifth generation of Pokemon games - six screenshots were released today. These screenshots show the dramatically different camera perspectives these new games will use. Little else is known at this time, but the games are slated for a 2010 release on the Nintendo DS. With respect...
Moving back to the here and now, we're very happy to announce some more updates to our HeartGold and SoulSilver section. First off, we're thrilled to present an in-depth guide to the Headbutt capture method in these games, including what can be found Pre-National Dex, Post-National Dex, and only in special locations, as well as an exhaustive list of...
There are just two more days until HeartGold and SoulSilver see their North American release. And we just can't wait to start celebrating! In fact, you'll notice that we've restyled the website theme to be a little more Johto! The Psydex has been updated to include the Pokedex Entries for all Pokemon in HeartGold and SoulSilver. Note that many of these...
With just two weeks left before the North American release of HeartGold and SoulSilver, there's still plenty to discuss. First off, we've posted guides for Legendary Pokemon and for Other Special Pokemon that you can find in HGSS. To go with them, we've also added information on all the Alternate Formes Pokemon can take in HGSS. Next up, you'll find...
Happy Valentine's Day to you all. And Happy Chinese New Year! We got you some presents! First off, thanks to a ton of work by Frost, the TCG Section has been completely revamped and now includes a bunch more of the promotional card sets as well as the new HeartGold & SoulSilver expansion that was released last Wednesday. Moving on, in celebration...
It has been brought to my attention that it has been nearly 2 weeks since I last posted an update. My apologies; it's midterm season. Anyway, since then, you may have noticed many changes all over the site. One of the most obvious is the changes we've made to the PicDex to now include the second frame of Generation 4 back sprites, and all the Overworld...
Posted by Jigglypuff on 27 Sep 2009 at 11:18am PDT
Shifting gears again, we've got some more stuff for HGSS to talk about. First, we've added the spites for the Notched-Ear/Spikey-Ear Pichu to the Picdex. The rest of the Psydex has been updated to include the Locations for all the wild Pokemon in HGSS. As far as content for the games themselves, we've added a list of all the TMs and HMs in HeartGold...
I hope you've all been enjoying the opening videos I posted below. I'll have some actual gameplay footage to post soon, once school work calms down a bit, so keep an eye out for that. More importantly, thanks to Eevee at veekun for decoding them, we now have all the HeartGold and SoulSilver Pokemon sprites added to the Psydex. These sprites follow...
Semifinal Group 1 Results; DeckDex Updated[Expand]
Posted by Frost on 29 Aug 2009 at 5:34pm PDT
The ten Pokemon advancing into the Finals from the Semifinal round's first group are Tyranitar, Charizard, Typhlosion, Suicune, Ho-oh, Articuno, Zapdos, Origin Giratina, Gengar and Gardevoir. Gardevoir, Alakazam, Swampert and Moltres were deadlocked for most of the week but Gardevoir just pulled through with an average that was 0.01 higher than the...
Well, at least it didn't take 3 years this time. I finished transcribing the new cards in the Rising Rivals TCG set, available May 20th, and added them to the DeckDex. Rising Rivals is the first English TCG set to feature Gym Leaders' Pokemon since Gym Heroes/Gym Challenge, the first English set to feature the Elite Four's Pokemon ever, and the first...
Welcome to April. I hope you all enjoyed our little prank yesterday. The concerned emails we received made it all the more enjoyable for us. Today, there's two updates to announce. First off, one of the most requested bug fixes has been taken care of. Over the last few days, several of you informed us that the Pokemon Comparer was broken. That should...
Posted by Jigglypuff on 31 Mar 2009 at 10:46am PDT
We've started incorporating all those changes that have been suggested for the Platinum Section. Of course, there's been quite a few things suggested, so we're just going down a list. Over the next few days, you'll be seeing several things getting updated. For today, the big announcement that I have for you is that Platinum Dex Entries have been uploaded...
So, Pokemon Platinum was released in the US today. We'll be adding more content to the Platinum Section in the coming days. Guides will be written, etc. The PsyDex has all the Platinum data already, so feel free to make use of that. The biggest change to the site, as you can see, is our new layout. This layout has been in the works for months, undergoing...
Something Old, Something New, Something Long Overdue[Expand]
Posted by Jigglypuff on 6 Jan 2009 at 1:08pm PST
So I've been busy going here and there over the site fixing up little things as I go. It seems a few updates I had made to the Platinum Section somehow got lost, so you'll now find that to be more up-to-date once again. I've also been going over some of the PicDex and taking care of some missing Platinum sprites. The PsyDex itself has also had a few...
I'm currently busy working on something that I'm hoping to have finished up during finals week (yeah, right). However, I would like to take the moment to say something. Further down on the page, you will see the a picture. Four updates above that, I link you to all Rotom Formes. So, please, STOP emailing me telling me you know what the silhouettes...
We've updated the Psydex with the missing piece of the Platinum Jigsaw: the move tutors! Some other minor updates: - The TechDex includes the translation of the Japanese name of the attacks, which helps explain which certain moves behave the way they do. For example, Sucker Punch isn't actually a kind of punch and hence does not get boosted by Iron...
In addition to all the changes made to the Platinum Section that you'll see in the previous update, I have the following to inform you about from this previous week. First off, the TechDex has been updated to show all the new levels for Platinum. Hypnosis also shows its updated accuracy. The big news, however, is that our Platinum Walkthrough is written...
We're hard at work on the site... whatever could it be? Oh, look at that. All of the Platinum Level-Up Attacks have been added to the Psydex, along with Platinum Locations. This includes information for Origin Giratina, Sky Shaymin and all Rotom formes, which have the same set of level-up attacks. The Platinum Sinnoh Dex numbers are listed now too....
I've been immensely busy lately, but I'm hoping to try to get some site updates taken care of today; I'll just keep editing them into this spot. For now, I can tell you that we have two new Attack Type Analyzers to go with the original one there. There are now special ones for GSC and for RBY. These tools are incredibly useful for helping you plan...
So, it's about time for another update, don't you think? Today, I've just got two things to cover, but you can expect more later this week. First off, we've added eight new quizzes to Amnesia Attack! You can now test your knowledge of Pokemon by type; Dragon, Flying, Ghost, Grass, Normal, Poison, Psychic, and Water have all been added. Try them out...
Sorry for the silence recently; I've been having trouble getting back into the swing of working a regular job again. That being said, I've made another update to our Platinum Screenshots page. I've added several new pictures and updated some older ones to much higher quality, courtesy of the official Japanese site. Furthermore, there's been a bit...
But before I get to those, here's what else I've been working on. Firstly, lingering errors with the moves learned in XD have been ironed out in the Psydex. They SHOULD all be taken care of now. In addition to those errors, there was an error with the Stadium 2 Gym Castle that has also been resolved. And, of course, I fixed up some various typos on...
So DatVu insists that despite being tired, I should give you all an update before I go to bed. First off, Frost has been busy again. He's gone and updated all the Episode Titles in the Anime section. It's interesting to see how many official titles have typos in them, actually. As for me, I've been tweaking the layout of the DP Walkthrough to flow...
So I'm back. Well, have been for a while, just been working on things worth posting about. First, Frost's TechDex revamp is done! A HUGE thanks to him for all that work that went into that! In the same vein, I've started adding moves learned in other games to the Psydex. For now, it's just XD, an example of which can be seen here. Some of you may...
In all likelihood, this will be the last Platinum update for a while. The magazines that all the recent wave of information came from have all been looked over. Next month, there will be another issue and doubtless more info. So, that being said, here's what I've got for you. I've reformatted and updated the Platinum Section main page. I've also added...
Posted by Jigglypuff on 13 Jan 2008 at 12:03pm PST
After a fair bit of work, a good bit of testing, and lots of headdesking over mysterious issues, we are now VERY proud to announce that the PsyDex has yet another new feature. Some of you may have noticed it over the past few days as we've been working on it. Before I get to it, though, there's something you need to know. In order for this to work...
Posted by Elite4 Admin on 24 Dec 2007 at 9:00pm PST
I hope all of you have been and are enjoying your Winter Breaks and holiday festivities. Myself, I celebrate Christmas, so I have a Christmas present for you all. The SideDex is our extension to the PsyDex for all the spinoff games of the series. You'll find Ranger, Mystery Dungeon, and Trozei on there right now, and more info and games will be added...
There lies an update. I was bored at work today, so I decided to work on the site. The PickUp List now properly switches between versions. Added a note about fossils to the DP Capture Methods Guide. More to come as I have time.
As I settle in for college life, I figure I should be finding more time for site work again, and that calls for a new song to get update titles from, since I'm too lazy to think of anything even remotely relevant. Recent fixes to the site include: The DP Characteristics were reformatted. The PsyDex DVs/IVs page was finally updated to call them IVs....
At the original time of this posting, the only updates to report are that the DP Items Page now has pictures, and the last of the footprints have been added to the PsyDex. Much thanks to Eevee from veekun for providing these pictures for us. Tomorrow is my day off, and I plan to spend the bulk of it coding. Watch this update for edits throughout the...
Well, since Jiggz just randomly went on vacation out of ABSOLUTELY NOWHERE, I guess I should leave an update noting what's new: I rewrote all the descriptions of Pokemon abilities for the abilities list and on the Psydex. The type weakness, resistance and immunity tables have also been updated to account for the newer abilities. The DV/IV Calculator...
Hello again everyone. This update is to let you know that we've undergone a major change on the site. Before I get to that, though, notice that the Insertions table of the Capture Guide is looking a little neater. I don't think there's much else we can really do to compact it anymore without making more of a mess. That's not the big news, however. ...
Have you been able to spot all the new stuff I've snuck onto the site without mention lately? ?.? -An updated display for the learnsets page, featuring new sorting options and listings of how Pokemon get their moves. (Note that for RBY Pokemon, TM/HMs are split into "RBY" and "GSC" TMs; the Kanto Pokemon generally learn a TM in both RBY and GSC if...
Hello again everyone. We've all been busy since the last update. There are numerous Diamond and Pearl Guides still in the works, including the full extensive walkthrough. Today's update, however, is for Mystery Dungeon. sN0wBaLL has completed another set of guides for us: 4th Generation Pokemon Cameos, an IQ Guide, and a Legendary Pokemon Guide. ...
I can't tell you how many emails we get every day about people distraught that the site hasn't been updated in 7 days, 3 hours, 42 minutes, and 11 seconds. It's crazy. Those of you who've been here more than once know that just because nothing gets posted here doesn't mean nothing's happening in the background; thank you for your patience. The astute...
Posted by FireStarter on 30 Apr 2007 at 6:05pm PDT
I feel stupid for not having done this days ago, but the Psydex has been updated with tons of new info about the new games, Diamond and Pearl! We've added attack data, Pokemon information (species, body styles, Pokedex entries, etc.), and much more. Expect more updates soon.
Posted by Jigglypuff on 27 Mar 2007 at 12:26pm PDT
I've been going over the Psydex again, working on suggestions that have been submitted. The first thing you'll notice is that the moveset search is now working properly again. With a little help from TonberryKing, I was able to get the TMs and HMs to show up again. In addition to that, the moves from Pearl and Diamond have been added. If the name is...
Hello all. Over the past few days, I've been going through the site and making little changes here and there; it's been mostly formatting issues. I was also made aware of a bug in the Psydex search system pertaining to searching by Movesets when TM/HM moves are used. With a little luck, I'll have that figured out soon. Unfortunately, we seem to be experiencing...
Hello all. Over the past 48 hours, I've been busy working out what I've gotten myself into. First thing's first; English names for the 4th Generation are now up in the Psydex. Feel free to poke around over the whole thing; let me know if I broke anything. And you can do that with ease, because I've repaired the Contact form on the Contact Us page....

Firstly, thanks to tiger10x, we have a walkthrough for Manaphy's Pokemon Ranger Mission, Recover the Precious Egg! In addition to that, the details on how to unlock this mission is still available. Both can be found on the guide to obtain Manaphy. Also, I've updated several attack tables around the site with the new Physical/Special/Other damage type...

Firstly I've added the three missing XD tutors to the Psydex and Techdex. They are Nightmare, Selfdestruct and Sky Attack. A quick list can also be found under the Pokemon XD section's Move Tutors page. Another big update is for the Mystery Dungeon section. sN0wBaLL has written up a guide on Friend Areas, and to complement that, I've created a map...
