New Social Media

Due to uncertainty of the future of one social media platform that hundreds of thousands of people follow us on, we've set up a new account on another platform to provide the same materials. We have set up a Serebii.net Mastodon account for you to follow. We hope it's not necessary but be sure to follow us there if you use that platform

Until Next Time, See Ya
