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)
- All movie debut dates
- All game release dates
- All manga release dates
- All TCG deck/expansion release dates
- All TFG set releases
- All Battrio Set releases
- All Battle e set releases
- All birthdays of notable people in the fandom
- All other important dates (i.e. TPCi merger date)
- Dates relevant to the fandom (i.e. Bulbapedia launch date)
- Dates that have some significance within Pokémon canon (i.e. birthdates in Adventures, diamond dust dates)
- 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.
