Don't look at this badass turtle! Look at the words to the left of the turtle!

This page details selected events in the Pokémon franchise history. You can edit this page! This page is a community effort to collate and preserve our history - like User:SnorlaxMonster/today, but in more detail. Once completed, items from this page will be presented daily on the Bulbapedia Main Page.

Disclaimer: I totally stole the layout and beginnings of the information below from SnorlaxMonster.

If you want to help, but don't know what to look at, ask trom on his talk page. He or another administrator involved in this project will get back to you on how you can help.

The kind of information we are looking for are (brace yourselves):

• All anime episode debut dates (Jan-March done already; 1997 is done; Up to 2007 is done for Japan)
• All movie debut dates (done)
• All game release dates (Main games up to Pokémon Sword & Shield is done for the US, Japan, Europe, Australia, and South Korea; Side-series games have not been tested)
• All manga release dates
• All TCG deck/expansion release dates
• All TFG set releases
• All Battrio Set releases
• All Battle e set releases
• All Tretta Set releases (Up to August 2013)
• All birthdays of notable people in the fandom
• All other important dates (i.e. TPCi merger date)
• All game weather events that always occur on a specific day (i.e. Diamond dust, Rain)
• Dates relevant to the fandom (i.e. Bulbapedia launch date)
• Dates that have some significance within Pokémon canon (i.e. birthdates in Adventures)
• Probably more stuff (if you can think of anything, ask trom on his talk page)

It might seem like a big job, but with a bit of teamwork, we Bulbapedians will be able to complete this in no time.

Please add new information on a new line.
