So, good morning to any Japanese users at the community! It's time to mark the very day that Pocket Monsters made its Japanese debut 10 years ago. And why is this a relevant community announcement? Because a new community theme is up, celebrating the anniversary of the once- and still-known, and well-standing anime.
10 whole years. Yes, most episodes would have to be fillers to last this long, but while we all realize how bad that makes it, it still seems to keep a mass amount of people watching. Realistically, it has lasted a really long time!
About the theme
Ironic to what I said before in a previous announcement, I'm making this theme out of JPGs and GIFs rather than my favourite transparent PNGs.
To the members who have been to the forums and tried the older themes like Haruka's Happiness, Satoshi's Bigger Test, etc., this theme will be quite the familiar one. Yes, I did tell many others that I wouldn't be using gradients again in my themes. Yet, for the purposes of going back to my anime-theme roots...
Introducing "10th Anniversary Pocket Monsters".
This is the name of the theme, of course, and it's available to all users now. It's a faded lime green scheme, and so, enjoy browsing the community with it! XD

It looks good~
The images are kool, but on the right there is only half of Ash walking showing, it would have been better not to have that one on the side.

That's not an issue - if you stretch your window, you should be able to see other images.

Yeah, it cuts off part of it on my screen as well, even with full-screening it, but ah well.. I still really like it. ^^
Its hard to believe its been 10 years, but I guess it was 1997 when it released. ...Wow. x3

Wow a lot better. Well the old one was amazing but we don't want winter friends in Spring do we? Nice Job!

Good job with this new theme! I was wondering when we'd get a new one. The Winter one was getting... out of season.

It looks as though that was intentional, the picture cut off is a repeat of a picture that was already in the banner =P

It's pretty nice but a little too green for my tastes.
/me can't believe there's no prank this year.

Nice theme but isn't my taste. Too much green. Perfer the redness of The Forgotten.
(Still waiting for the prank... haha)

Hehehe... nice theme. I wondered when we were going to change it. I like the green cause I like Yoshi, and the pics are pretty cool, too. See ya, Winter theme!!

I too also enjoy the new skin. And yes, "Winter Friends" was getting to be a wee bit out-of-season for most members.
And I also have that issue with the picture cut in half. If I look very closely, I can see Brock's arm.
So, does this mean that we now have a slogan with: "Celebrating the 10th anniversary of Pokemon"? xP
I do say that this is better than some prank. Less predictable.

I find it odd there's no Tracey to be found, but meh, I'm probably the only one that cares. XD
It's a good theme as always :3
