PokéJungle Recaps 2013

by

This year was certainly a memorable one in the Poké-verse. Almost a full year ago we were treated to a Pokémon direct that revealed Generation VI of the main series. Many had wondered what other colors or gems there were left to use for their names, but The Pokémon Company surprised us all by announcing Pokémon X & Pokémon Y. These two new games boasted features fans had only dreamed of, including 3D graphics, trainer customization, and a global release. Then came the 9 months of waiting for them to come out. We all persevered however and everyone was kept up to date on all the minute revalations right here at PJN 😉

Along with Generation VI, 2013 also saw a new Pokémon movie, Genesect and the Legend Awakened, as well as a new anime season featuring the cast of Pokémon X & Y. New TCG sets based on the game also debuted.

Staff: Favorite Moments of 2013

PJ: My favorite Pokémon memory of 2013 was probably getting to go to the Pokémon Game Show. It was a first for the series and the event was super fun. I also got a chance to play Pokémon X & Y early which was a blast (but made me even more impatient)! Obviously another great moment was the release of X & Y. They’re great games and being able to start my own adventure was something I had waited to do since they were announced. Lastly, I’d just like to say that 2013 was a year of exciting growth for this site and it really has been a privilege to deliver news to all of you and read your comments on all our posts. I’ve also really enjoyed working alongside all of the staff here. Here’s to a great 2014!

moving: 2013 has been a pretty big year for me. My activity and work on the site increased hugely and it now feels like I’ve become a proper part of the site (hopefully the other staff and visitors agree!), and I’m proud to say I’ve been a part of PokéJungle.nets biggest and busiest year yet. It’s difficult to fit all of my highlights of the year into a couple of sentences, so I won’t even try… However one of my favourite moments was in the week before X & Y released, the staff were all up in arms about who would be doing what and who would get their copy of the game first. Then, two days early I received my game shortly after Sammydodger and properly kicked off our in-depth coverage. There’s absolutely loads I could pick, but that will do for now, perhaps more in the comments… 2014? Bring it on!

Visitors: Favorite Moments of 2013

Your turn! We here at PJN would like to hear about your favorite things from this past year. We’ve also prepared a small list of questions to inspire you 😉

  • What piece of news made you most excited for Pokémon X & Y?
  • What was your favorite Pokémon that was introduced this year?
  • Any non-Pokémon things that were memorable for you in 2013?

Looking Forward to 2014

A new year means new possibilities. We already know of one release we’ll get: Pokémon Bank. After it’s rocky launch and subsequent removal in Japan, only time will tell when it will be released worldwide. Hopefully soon though! The next year could also bring new surprises for fans. Spin-offs? Remakes? Who knows what will be announced. One thing’s for sure though… we’ll do our best here at PJN to report it first! So we hope you’ll stick with us and come along for the ride 😀

Want a New Year’s Resolution?

I’m going to shamelessly suggest that you make it your resolution to join our GREAT forum and post regularly 😀 It’s rather quiet right now, but we’ve got some great members and the commenters here would feel at home there. Hope to see you at Mt. Moon Community in 2014!

  17. What made me most excited for X&Y was pokemon amie :3 I mean really being able to pet all of my dear companions was a nice addition.My favorite pokemon now thats a hard one to answer since I loved all of them but if I had to choose it would be Chespin,Fenniken,Talonflame Aka BlueJay <3,Dragalge,Florges….yeah that could take awhile for me XD.What was memorable for me was joining the one and only Pokejungle it still deals with pokemon but that moment when I took the step to make an account on something other than a yahoo thing was special for me because I met so many amazing and kind people who I cherish as great friends I couldnt have picked a better community Ive come to really love it here 🙂 and I hope to be here long term and continue to receive news from whatevers happening in the pokemon world and seeing others express themselves for what they believe getting to know you guys really made an impact on me so thank you for everything welcoming and accepting me making me feel like I belong and for being who you are 🙂 I made some amazing friends 😀 I also learned more than I have known about pokemon competitive ect so thank you again.I cant wait to read more of these articles as well I want to thank you guys for taking time to give us some awesome things to read and thinking up things that would make the day brighter for everyone 🙂 we are very lucky to have mods,gym leaders as great as you guys

  18. 1) THE OPENING ANNOUNCEMENT! It totally caught me by surprise, and see Xerneas and Yveltal in all their glory was just amazing! I was so excited to see the starters, and it felt overwhelmingly amazing!
    2) Goomy, duh! Although I also really liked Klefki, and I know a lot of people hate it, but that little face is just so cute!
    3) I have a sad thing that happened to me. My grandpa died, so that was memorable, and also I met you guys! Pokejungle is such a great place, I’ve gotten shinies, made friends, and you’ve generally helped me a lot.

    I am sad to say that I will be officially resigning from Pokejungle this coming year in 2014 due to schoolwork and pursuiting my life. I have a lot going on in 2014 and it is hard to keep up with both upcoming Pokejungle projects and my schoolwork. Yes I will come on to check the latest posts but I will be no longer commenting on posts (not as much, at least). I’d like to thank the people who truly stuck with me and was my friend throughout 2013- Archeops127, ShinyNoivern and ShinyXatu just to name a few. I love you all, and hope to return fully active in the near future…

    With love, Dicie

    • Dicie, I’ll miss you so much. Throughout my following of Pokejungle, you’ve been there, with you crazy, Dedenne-loving personality. You wereone of the greatest members of Pokejungle to me, along with Dae, Jordin, and a few others. No one can ever replace you. I’m a bit disappointed that you didn’t think of me as a friend. I guess you didn’t really get to know me, and now you never will. Goodbye.

  25. Do any of you other junglers ever think about how most of us don’t ever see eachother physically and that the members who always posted but suddenly stoppped might be dead?
