Acknowledgements

Special acknowledgement to Topaz for the lovely banner for my site. (And thanks too to www.pokemonaholic.com for my old banner.) Thanks to Oddish of Oddish Grove and others who have supported me and offered ideas and constructive comments. A note of gratitude goes to Richiesite (the first Pokémon site I visited) and Charizard Valley (home of the best Pokémon fanfic I've read) for the inspiration they have afforded me and the example I can never live up to. Finally (although you may never get to read this) a hearty thanks on behalf of all Pokémon fans to Satoshi Tajiri who created Pocket Monsters and to all those who have worked to make Pokémon the success and enjoyment it has been.

Dedication

This site is dedicated to David, my young Pichu, who introduced me to Pokémon. I used to call him "the walking Pokédex".
