Pokémon PC-bound
The Learning Company is bringing Pikachu and his friends to a PC near you. To this day, no TLC educational software has gotten high replay value, but TLC and Nintendo think the little monsters will keep kids interested. The Jumpstart TLC Pokémon titles are scheduled to be released this Fall.

Pikachu brands the Game Boy Color
It wasn't long before Pikachu got his own Special Yellow Game Boy with a Pokémon Yellow Game Pak included. To get this unit, you'll have to either donate body parts or become a drug dealer (not that we encourage it!) because it will cost $109.95 (Ouch!). Those who bought Pokémon Yellow separately will feel ripped off because as of now, Nintendo hasn't announced that this unit will be sold individually. Judging by the popularity of Pokémon, this will probably be the best selling Game Boy out of them all. Nintendo of Japan (NCL) had a similar promotion with an orange Pocket Monsters Game Boy Color, and it sold incredibly well. We have pictures of both the US and Japanese Limited Edition GBCs.

Pikachu: Ka-ching ka-ching!

Look at all the new stuff!
First of all, there's the page's new look. Do you like it (send complaints or compliments to Sir Swish)? Even before Swish thought of giving the site a new look, he'd already created the Games section, which was originally mentioned by Airman. The Codes section was started after being requested by one of our readers. We're also going to review Pokémon games as well as preview upcoming ones. Swish's crowning achievement, the PU Message Board (which is made by a CGI script, not by him!), is up too! Oh, and that strangely-named section (you know which one!), why not learn what it's about by actually going there?!

Swish: I'm pretty sure I'll be seeing lots of compliments in my inbox about the PU's new look...

Pokémon Soundtrack CD
Contradicting what he said on a past update, Airman decided to actually buy the television Pokémon Soundtrack and post the songs on the site as MP3s, instead of just swiping other people's MP3s. Well, what are you waiting for? Go hear 'em!

Pokémon 2.B.A. Master

Airman: Aren't I nice?

Pokémon in Super Smash Bros.
Two months after being first spoken about, Swish's Pokémon in Super Smash Bros. guide is finally up! Be sure to check it out!

The Guide

Swish: Even though I don't like the Pokémon fighters in SSB, I made the guide since Airman couldn't find the time of day to get off his lazy butt and do something for the site.
