Welcome to Pokemon Cupboard, a world for fans of all things Pokemon!

This is a world where I’ll be posting various things about the Pokemon franchise. Here I plan to talk about some of my favorite Pokemon, favorite locations in the games, perhaps reminisce about playing the games or my favorite episodes of the anime, and maybe much more.

About Me

I got into Pokemon during the mid to late nineties. At first didn’t want anything to do with Pokemon. Back then it was part of my nature to rebel against all things popular. But my opinion about Pokemon changed significantly after seeing the first four or five episodes of the anime. I got into the series and soon wanted to play the games. That Christmas I believe I had received a Gamboy Color and the Blue version of the Pokemon game.

Eventually I also played the Red and Yellow versions, mostly to see how they differed from Blue. I played the games that followed up until Ruby and Sapphire. At that point the anime had started to go downhill. I really didn’t like it when they replaced Misty with that girl May and her annoying little brother Max (god how I loath him). The games started to lose their appeal too. I didn’t like how Ruby and Sapphire didn’t have a lot of the Pokemon from previous games. Of course at the time I didn’t realize that they were going to do remakes of the first generation games.

Still, by that point I was no longer as into Pokemon as I once was. My focus had turned more to Yu-Gi-Oh! and other things. But I still keep tabs on the Pokemon franchise. I think that the anime is a lost cause, but I have read about the newer games, some of which actually look pretty good. I’m also currently working on a Pokemon Fan Fiction project. So in short I’m basically an old-school Pokemon fan.

Guest Posters

My interest in Pokemon ebbs every now and then. So to make things more fun and keep this world alive, I’m going to allow other Pokemon fans here on TheO to post things here. So like me you could post things about your favorite Pokemon or talk about your favorite anime episodes. But you can do so much more too.

  • If you play the games, you could use this world as sort of a journal and share your adventure with everyone. It doesn’t have to be the mainstream Pokemon games either; it could be Pokemon Conquest or one of the consol games.
  • Another use for this world could be to post Pokemon fanfics you may have created. Or perhaps share the profiles of your Pokemon OCs (if you have any).
  • Maybe you have some big Pokemon related art project you want to share. You could use this world to chronicle its creation.

You could do all that and much, much more. As long as it has to do with Pokemon, the sky’s the limit. So if you’re interested in becoming a guest poster, or maybe just have a few questions, please contact me via comment or PM and I’ll get back to you as soon as I can.

highest lv pokemon: stoutland at lv 36

Now before I even get started in Icirrus city I head back to twist mountain to train the whole time klink is saying nah I no want to fight no no I'll, I'll miss all my attacks me: aww klink don't do this to me please don't do this today not in the mood for this right now so even against my better judgement I took klink into the gym with me bad idea it still missed everything with klink. All in all I beat Brycen and got the icicle badge and then i find that the shadow triad is outside telling me N is at dragonspiral tower waiting for me.After fighting the team plasma grunts I expected to fight N but forgot I didn't need to. so now they want me to head to the Relic castle but I don't wanna go back to route 4 there is too much sand for me, but at least I got a darmanitan with a hidden ability called zen mode. The I see Cheren again so now I'm thinking oh crap I don't want to fight u now but I didn't. Next after kicking team plasma's but they tell me to head to nacrene city then back to Icirrus city t head to where I'm stopped by Bianca after a battle I head to oplucid city and was shocked because I forgot opucid city is more techno now after that I fought a few ppl in the gym and gave it a rest

highest lv pokemon: lv 28 swadloon

Today I started in chargestone cave caught a lv 27 klink and again the shadow triad scares the crap out of me and warn me that team plasma is just ahead so i switch vanillite to the front fought about 8-9 team plasma ppl an now I'm about 10 steps from being in mistralton city but N had other plans and stopped me for a battle now I'm in mistralton city (FINALLY) just to find out the gym leader didn't have time to fight me so I started towards Celestic tower Mistralton tower in anime before I got the I caught a lv 27 cubchoo and zebstrika. I'm now in the tower now depending on herdier's crunch to take out the trainers I have to fight everyone almost every time I turned. After getting to the top and talking to Skyla I challenged the gym and I'll say this much it is really funny how the character smacks into a wall near the end. Anyway after fighting Skyla and getting the jet badge and getting TM62 Acrobatics I find out N is stalking me and is waiting for me outside the gym. Now off to route 7 again where Cheren stops me for a match where he spams detect and taunt. In twist mountain trying my best to avoid some of the trainers lucky for me it winter on black so getting through it was easy and now I'm tired didn't have much time to play but hey got a new badge I'm happy.

Brand New Guest Poster

I'd like to welcome yet another guest poster to this world, my old friend xXShayde WolfXx. I'm glad he could join us.

Guest Poster List

I just added a list of those who're guest posters to the introduction. As I've mentioned several times before, please let me know if you want to become a guest poster here and I'll make it happen.

New Abbreviation

It occurred to me a few minutes ago that the text box that TheO uses for titles of posts and artwork only seems to allow so many characters. Which sometimes causes the last few characters of a title to be cut off. I thought that might cause a problem for some of the future Legendary Pokemon of the Week posts. So to save space for when I get into double digits I've changed the title. Instead of Legendary Pokemon of the Week, it's now Legendary PKMN of the Week. For consistency I've gone through and changed the titles of the previous posts to this abbreviation. The tags will remain the same though. Probably an unnecessary step to take, but sometimes it's better to be cautious.
