TRsRockin is a website that focuses on Pokémon glitches and contains information on Team Rocket from the early seasons of the Pokémon anime. It is a website for looking up Pokémon glitches, most commonly the Missingno. glitch. The site also contains glitches found in other video games, as well as a section for articles on NES games and merchandise. One of the site's main philosophies is to create "a family-friendly site that anyone can enjoy". The name of the website is derived from a line from the 2.B.A. Master song "Double Trouble", Team Rocket's Rockin.

History

The site was started back in mid-December, 2000 by designer/graphic artist Mandy Nader (also known as TR Rose). She was learning HTML and needed a way to practice. The site started as an information site about Pokémon Live!, because not many had been around at the time. She then added information on Team Rocket to the site, because she had "always liked Team Rocket best of the Pokémon characters".

Later, still eager for her site to expand, she began researching the Missingno. glitches, and reported on her findings through her website. She opened the "Tales from the Glitch" section of her site, the most popular to date. There are over 450 pages on her website, with all kinds of information relating to Pokémon, as well as other video games, and the site is still expanding.

In February 2011, TR Rose decided to close down the site, and is now focusing on her new website, MeowAbout Cosplay.

Site

The site contained many sections which include information on glitches, visitor submitted information, cosplay pictures, and even a toys section.

Tales from the Glitch

The most popular part of her website at the time, this section takes in submitted accounts of glitches encountered in any of the main Pokémon games. The main section, "Missingno. the Phantom of the Pokédex!" was a page in which it gives you clear instructions on how to activate the Missingno. glitch, as well as including screenshots and commentary on her progress in activating the glitch. It then continued with visitor accounts of Missingno., including screenshots submitted.

A similar format was continued for the other Pokémon games.

Cosplay

There was a cosplay section of the site. It incoporates not only Pokémon-themed cosplays, such as Team Rocket cosplays, but also many others such as Silent Hill, Final Fantasy, and Mario series. The people in these costumes are usually former webmaster Mandy Nader, as well as her husband, Lee Nader. As of February 2011, this has been moved to a new domain, MeowAbout Cosplay.

Staff

The one prominent member of TRsRockin is its original creator, Mandy Nader (TR Rose). She owned the site until it was shut down in February 2011, almost 11 years after it was set up.
