Events
Pokémon Masters EX
- The special event Happy Team Break Day! was held, where Team Break members occupied the Pokémon Center.[1]
Fansites
The Cave of Dragonflies put up a supposed 1st chapter of a Morphic rewrite, which eschewed the original's deconstruction of Pokémorph fanfiction in favor of a more straight-laced take. Also, the site's Favorite Pokémon Picker feature was changed to only display pictures of Scyther instead of other Pokémon, in reference to a internet meme.[2]
Aesthetic changes
- Bulbapedia was taken over by Team Rainbow Rocket, becoming Rocketpedia, with the front page redesigned. This lead to the site having to be 'rebuilt' as a cover for a major server and MediaWiki update.
