Shivysaur's game mechanics - home

so, i really like to take notes. call me crazy. but i have all these notes sitting in a folder on my desk labeled "pokemon". it's just things i need to remind myself of every now and again. but then i realized that instead of using my grungy unorganized binder, i could make a website for myself that's more organized and easier search through. voila!
so it's one thing to have a website to meet my own needs (and show off my html prowess!), but could this be a service to others? so now i'm thinking of you as well. that, i think, is what will make this site shine. it's exactly what i look for in a fansite, and with your support and feedback, it'll be HUGE. i've created a forums page that will let us do just that. if there's anything here that you wanna see, let me know. till then, enjoy what's posted. i'm always adding more!

oh, and if you don't find what you're looking for here, i've provided resources that have been super reliable to me. so if you don't find the answer you need here, try one of those.

news:

12.14.2008 update - don't kill me for making this one, the information given here does not necessarily reflect the gamer-morality of the writer (myself). it's really just for those who have wondered, and can't for the life of them (like me) follow those cheesy youtube tutorials. 

12.9.2008 update - compiled my chicken-scratch notes into the new abilities guide. enjoy! note: for now it is just the game text, but there's way more to most abilities than just that. will add more as time allows.

12.6.2008 update - all those pokeradar images should be working now. thanks a lot imageshack for making me rehost all of those pics on another site.

12.4.2008 update - one of my favorite things of the fourth gen. games; the pokeradar guide has been added. please post on the forums if anything is missing!

11.29.2008 update - completed another page, this one listing all the poketch applications obtainable (both in-game and from nintendo events) in the fourth gen. games.

11.26.2008 update - the forums are up! now i can actually talk to people who need help; the point of this whole process.

11.24.2008 update - just created empty pages to remind myself of future topics. i will add to them as i go along. also updated a few kinks in my html. i still don't know how to fix the dates above my posts. they aren't exactly accurate, as i tend to go back and add/correct what i've written. just ignore them.

11.20.2008 update - included a section on how i make my money. enjoy!

11.19.2008 update - new layout. minor changes including customized right-sidebar and navigation. added search field.

11.16.2008 update - check out the first of many pages to come. this is the most exhaustive and reader-friendly guide on effort values i have yet to read. call me biased; i wrote it. and it's all on one page!

11.14.2008 update - website created! this project of mine is a combination of personal notes i've made for myself while playing through pokemon pearl, and in personal response to my frustrations with every other pokemon fansite in existence. i hope this site will prove itself more comprehensive, in-depth, and user-friendly than those previously available. enjoy!
