Brought to you by Hackman!

Today in the news:
- Koga's Transformation pic has been transformed!
- New anime Episodes! At last!
- Some Gym: Challenge tidbits

Enjoy the video? See it HERE.


- Koga's Transformation pic has been transformed!
Remember the 'evil' card? No, not Pikachu, Koga's transformation, which had the 'backwards swastika' on it. Many people had mistakenly identified it as the hate symbol of the Nazis under Hitler (read up on WWII history if you don't get it), when really it is a buddhist symbol for just the opposite: peace and harmony.

But to avoid further controversy over the similar symbols, Media Factory seems to have changed the picture of the card. Instead of the swastica, another symbol has taken its place!

So we'll be seeing this card in Gym: Challenge, if all goes well... credit for the pic goes to Drew Yeh!


- New anime Episodes! At last!
If you watch Pokémon this Saturday on Kids WB, you'll finally see a new episode! Also, the 'Lost Episode' (Beauty and the Beach) will be reshown this weekend...


- Some Gym: Challenge tidbits
The coins in the Gym: Challenge theme decks are rumored to be Alakazam. Also, Koga and Giovanni are to have theme decks, unlike in Japan.

Thanks to AngurisNeoandAnarch for the news!
