The response to the art competition has been very disappointing indeed. But there is still some time remaining! February 19th is the last date for entries.
Anyway, on to more positive news, Rebirpedia stylee. The Sinnoh map finally got the attention it needed, and has been updated all the way up to Lake Acuity. ( Read more... )

Rebirth hasn't seen much attention yet this year. To be honest its generally been a bit of a slow start, creatively. ( Read more... )

I've been giving the Pokedex section of the Rebirpedia a little polish up as of late. Some of my own Pokemon designs have been archived -either indefinitely or otherwise- to keep to my quality control standards (namely that I strive to write in characters with plot purpose). ( Read more... )

Don't forget, our anniversary contest is running until February 19th 2010. Don't let this chance to grab yourself a bunch of Pokemon goodies pass you by!
Catch you later, Pokefans!

If you've been interested in contributing to the Rebirth cause and you own a copy of Pokemon Ranger, Shadows of Almia or Explorers of Time/Darkness/Sky, you may just be able to fulfil that wish! We're looking for fans to transcript the plotlines and dialogue from these games for easier reference. Think you can help? Click here.
Not much to say aside from that right now. Been playing Pokemon Rumble a bunch - enjoyable game, I can see ways in which they could have shinied it up without too much effort, but oh well. That's just my internal creative having a whine XD
Catch you later, Pokefans!

Don't worry, they're good revisions 8)
I'm happy to announce I'll be able to offer Pokemon Rumble to US and UK/European entrants to our anniversary art competition as prizes, since they shall be releasing the game here sooner than I thought! Unfortunately, I won't be able to offer the Virtual Console/Wiiware games outside America and Europe unless there are people willing to hand these prizes out on my behalf, after which I'd pay them back.
Following a few questions about Era Sequentia, I have updated the details accordingly.

Fan gifts...complete!

Well the most important parts of Rebirth8 -this year's anniversary- are done.
With much to tell you lot about, I'm practically set to burst. All in good time...
19 days to go, PokePeeps!
Not much else to report right now, bar the fact that I've been pegging away at the script for "Getting Technical". I've also finally added a reponse in the FAQ with regards to the Pokemon Rebirth ROM some of you may have seen while out in other reaches of the internet.
- Aqua Bunny, Affiliation Rules Update
-
- caat1985
- October 18th, 2009
Rebirth has a new affiliate in the form of Aqua Bunny, a Nido family-centered website. After chatting with the webmaster of AB, I realised that Rebirth's own links page was in sore need of a clean up - it still had my old e-mail address from several years ago! So I've taken down some link images and put up some new fresh ones, and updated the affiliation rules. Namely, I shall only be accepting requests from creative-based Pokemon fansites. No more news-oriented sites...the fandom has several main sources for Pokemon news delivery, and it seems rather surplus to just replicate the information in other areas. Myself and others in the field wish to network creative Pokemon fansites so established and newer projects can share decent exposure.

Great news, folks! After some deliberation and careful planning, Pokemon Orchestral Arrangement is now back up and running - giving us a chance to listen to and download a growing selection of revamped music from all generations of Pokemon games. An ambitious project, much like my own, which makes our sites prime candidates for association. Take some time out to check POA today, and spread the knowledge of its revival!
Hope you lot are as stoked for this year's anniversary as I am 8)

Preparation is going well for Rebirth's 8th anniversary, which is promising to be quite a stunner this year. In celebration of these strong developments, I'm planning to hold an art contest starting November 16th and running to January 16th. This blog entry is to notify those who are interested in advance, so they have time to decide what they'd like to do.

This came out of the blue, even for me. I've been working on "Getting Technical" for the most part, but got struck with inspiration for this while looking through old concept doodles. It's nice to shine a little spotlight on various other characters now and then, and also insight into one of the greater curiosities of the Pokémon world.

Thanks to a pointer from Suus, our resident news nabber, I discovered that the 11th Pokémon movie "Giratina and The Sky Warrior" is set to be released to DVD, and pretty soon! Given that they're already advertising it on the official Pokemon website, we could well be seeing the DVD in shops before this year is out. Great news for Pokémon movie lovers and Rebirthteers alike.
I've been catching up on the archives lately by watching season 6, and wow, they sure had a lot of pointless filler back then. There's been amusing dialogue exchange too, but I'd say in terms of me sitting there and groaning, season 6 ends up second place to season 3. I mean, 5 or more episodes spent just on Dewford Island? Ouichie.
I adored "A PokeBLOCK Party" though. And no, not just because Ted Lewis did a voice in it. It was absolutely laugh out loud hilarious!
As for work on our side of matters, "Getting Technical" is coming along nicely. I'm still working on the ep13 upgrade for "Ultimatum" which is also coming along nicely. Watching gameplay footage of "Sonic Unleashed" has made me wanna work on "Blank Pages". Why? Well, Sonic's werehog/unleashed form's voice sounds a bit like how I'd imagine Rhenton's to sound, so I guess that's kind of a warped incentive, e-hee.
Oh! Minor edits have been made to the Rebirpedia as a result of me watching season 6 as well. Mostly to the episode watched list and Hoenn map.

Wow...well here we are again, folks. Another year of cultivating the Rebirth saga and it really has been quite the journey.
Pokémon Rebirth is responsible for bringing me into contact with many awesome people, one of which heavily fuelled the life of the project in response, in turn continuing to fuel my love of the Pokémon fandom in general. It's pretty cool how these chain reactions work, huh?
I just want to give my thanks to all those who have supported the Rebirth project in some form - my affiliates who were able to put up my promo banner this year, affies who weren't (but I'm still thankful for the links regardless!), fans whom I know, others who I have yet to meet. To all of you who have been moved in some way by the works of Tim and myself...we have been more than glad to have been able to bring you our side to the Pokémon universe. And we hope you will continue to follow us as we unfold further tales here!
Speaking of tales, today marks the online debut of "Getting Technical", a look into James' childhood times at PokéTech. I've also added some data to the Kakureiro 'pedia article, and another article on Nightmares.
Also, don't forget to check out the gallery for the full promo! I spent a lot of time on it.
And it doesn't stop there! Silvester, Rebirth's proofreader and general Pokénthusiast has kindly taken the time out to write a special anniversary report from Nintendo World, complete with photos! Click here to go and read it.

I'd forgotten there was one piece of "Darkness Revealed" I hadn't shared with you guys. While I can't tell you when chapter 8 will be available (since this story is one of the ones I don't personally write), I have great pleasure in bringing chapter 7 and hope you enjoy it.
Seven days until our 7th anniversary! I decided I'm gonna release the first episode of the "Getting Technical" arc that day, so keep an eye out for it. And some further good news to come with relation to one of my affies, but I'm keeping that under my hat for the moment.

Just a quick note to point you towards the latest addition to our selection of Rebirth shorts. It's called "Alliance" and is the first ficlet to be set during the Diamond and Pearl series. Hoorah! Click on its title in the menu to go and read it.
Additionally, I've thought up a neat design for the 7th anniversary promo, but better get myself in action and draw it up! The time is fast approaching. November 16th, in case you weren't aware.
