Just a reminder that the Arceus Event at Toys R Us starts today and runs through November 15th! Again, here is all the info from Pokemon.com:

Arceus can be yours this November! You can get this extraordinary Pokemon via a special character distribution happening only at Toys"R"Us stores in the United States and Puerto Rico from November 7th through November 15th. You'll need to have your copy of Pokemon Diamond version, Pokemon Pearl version, or Pokemon Platinum version to receive Arceus, as well as your own Nintendo DS or Nintendo DSi system.

Arceus Information
Pokeball: Cherish Ball
Held Item: Rowap Berry

What's more, Arceus holds a secret that will be revealed in the upcoming Pokemon HeartGold version, and Pokemon SoulSilver version games! When you trade Arceus into one of those games, you'll be able to catch Dialga, Palkia, or Giratina (You'll have to choose just one!), and the Pokemon you catch will be at Level 1! so don't miss this opportunity to catch the powerful Alpha Pokemon!

I am saddened to report that WWE hall of fame inductee Captain Lou Albano, who is best known to gamers as playing Mario on the "Super Mario Bros. Super Show," has passed away today at the age of 76. Sad day for both wrestling and video game fans alike.

But on the bright side, now he's "Doing the Mario!" in heaven.

And denies the existance of Wii 2

Alright, I really wanted to make a Kingdom Hearts Banner for this month, but my Illustrator is not functioning at the moment. So I searched through my files and found an old drawing I did for Metroid Prime when it first came out. So I decided to use that picture and Photoshop it up to create the banner you see above! Wallpaper will be coming soon! All in all I think it turned out well after the Seagull's magic touch!

So I encourage all to go out and purchase Metroid Prime Trilogy!

Its been a while since I posted, so its time to get back on track! Here is all the new info on from the last couple weeks for Pokemon Heart Gold and Soul Silver, direct from Serebii.net:

* First, it confirms that the Apricorns come back. The apricorns a're stored in an item called the Apricorn Case. This means the following balls have returned, for reference here are their use:

o Fast Ball: Captures Pokémon that Flee
o Friend Ball: Increases Happiness of Captured Pokémon
o Heavy Ball: Captures Heavier Pokémon more successfully
o Level Ball: Captures Pokémon of lower levels easier
o Love Ball: Captures opposite gendered Pokémon easier
o Lure Ball: Captures Pokémon caught with the Fishing Rod easier
o Moon Ball: Captures Pokémon that evolve with the Moon Stone easier

* In addition, this time, you have the ability to grow berries yourself portabley within an item called the Berry Planter, using the SquirtBottle to grow them and
* Next, it reiterates Kanto's return in Heart Gold & Soul Silver and also shows there is a new Battle Frontier style facility to the west of Olivine City. Further details about this Battle Frontier have not been revealed
* It also confirms the National Park's Bug Catching Contest making a return. This contest features you having to capture the best Bug Pokémon you can.
* It also shows that Rayquaza is catchable later in the game at Level 50. Further details were not revealed but as revealed in June, it will require Kyogre & Groudon for it to appear
* It also shows that you have the Mystery Egg subquest from Gold & Silver. It is unknown if the Egg you receive will still be Togepi
* Finally, it confirms that the new area west of Cianwood City is a Safari Zone.
* Kyogre & Groudon both dwell in a cave like Rayquaza and like Rayquaza, they are to be found at Level 50
* Apricorns have another use. As well as making the new PokéBalls, you can convert them into juice in order to boost your Pokémon's Pokéthlon stats
* Three new Pokéthlon events have been revealed

o Break Block which has your Pokémon breaking blocks using their hand. This is controlled with the Touch Screen
o Change Relay, another race controlled on the Touch Screen. However, unlike Dash Hurdle, you only control one Pokémon at a time
o Push Circle is another match similar to RingOut Fight. However, you control all your Pokémon at once

* It also shows that you can customise the areas within the Safari Zone. Moving areas for quicker access should you need it to allow for easy access to areas if you're looking for certain Pokémon.

This new trailer confirms some new characters. Casey Jones FTW!
