I am thrilled to announced that I am an official #PokemonPartner; a scheme set up by TPCi (@PokemonNewsUK) to help me and others work closer with them.
This will provide many opportunities to bring some really cool stuff to you all in the future.
I am so excited!

I am so glad that Z-A is doing absolute insanity for rulesets.
It’s the sort of stuff I want for Pokémon Champions competitions. I miss that from past games
Serebii Update: The next Pokémon Legends: Z-A Ranked Battle season has been announced.
Allows only for Pokémon that are caught in Wild Zone 1 and their evolutions & Mega Evolutions
Runs from October 29th through November 13th 2026
Details @ serebii.net
So as it's the anniversary of Serebii today, and I don't have a game or DLC to cover, I'm going to be streaming and it's to get Shiny Celebi!
Come in and let's talk Pokémon, 30th Anniversary, the future and more!

Today marks 27 years since I began Serebii!
I truly cannot thank you enough for all your support as the site continues to grow and reach new heights. The fact that so many of you trust me daily really means the absolute world to me.

Just in time for Serebii30.
This makes me so happy. I can't wait.
Serebii Update: The first permanent retail Pokémon location outside of Asia is set to open in London in 2029. It will be the first of several.
More information is to come

This year brought a brand new challenge with Pokopia and through it, the site has reached heights that it has never seen day-to-day.
As always,from the bottom of my heart, thank you all for your trust. I am living my dream because of each of you who use Serebii.
The existence of Special Packs is making me hopeful that one day we will get Halloween themed packs, Christmas themed packs etc.
Whimsical stuff such as that is what Pokémon TCG Pocket is really missing

On this day in 1996, 30 years ago, the first cards for the Pokémon Trading Card Game were released.
Since then there has tens of thousands of cards across all Pokémon generations

On this day in 2023, 3 years ago, the first episode of the live-action Pokémon related series: A Pocketful of Adventures, aired in Japan
This series follows Madoka Akagi as she rediscovers Pokémon and uses elements from the game into her work life.

Guys.
I don't want to alarm you, but it's less than a month and a half until the Serebii Advent Calendar

On this day in 2002, 24 years ago, Togepi's Great Adventure was released in Japan for the Pokémon mini.
This game features Togepi going through various towers to return home after being kidnapped

This one was always such a Blast
Though, it started off as a slow Burn
On this day in 2013, the Pokémon XY Anime started in Japan. This series featured Ash travel to Kalos and meet Clemont, Bonnie and Serena.
It also featured 1 further subseries and a series of specials focused on Mega Evolution

Also happy anniversary to the game that took the last lingering bit of my sanity away from me when I went and catalogued all benches & ladders in Lumiose City for the Serebii interactive map
I'm very proud of my work with Legends: Z-A on Serebii; not just the map but everything
On this day in 2025, 1 year ago, Pokémon Legends: Z-A first released.
This game was located entirely in Lumiose City with a more real-time battle system and had you follow the story of Rogue Mega Evolutions in Lumiose City

Seeing the engagement shift since distributions for competitions went to Champions is quite fascinating
Before these distributions would get so much love and attention. Now, far less.
They need to shift these to HOME distributions that you can send to Champions so you keep them
Serebii Update: The Pokémon LAIC distributions have been given including a Sylveon based on Francesco Pio Pero's 2026 NAIC winning Sylveon for Pokémon Champions
Details being added @ serebii.net
