 Being the most populated server, Smogon is also disliked for its inevitably high population of [[wp:newbie|newbies]] which have occasionally repelled users and made them look for solace on smaller servers with far stricter moderation. Others simply believe the Smogon population to be immature, such as [[Serebii.net]], although their claims are questionable.
-Residents of the Smogon forums are referred to as "Smogoneers" or "Smogonites" and have at one point been rumored to be [[wp:Nazi|Nazi]] sympathizers due to an avatar fad involving swastikas. The Smogon motto is "Pokemon on the Internet: Let's make it happen" and their mascot is the ever-smiling Pokémon [[Koffing]], the name Smogon itself being the German moniker for this Pokémon.
 Smogon is affiliated with NetBattle and many, if not most, serious competitive battlers are now part of Smogon. The SmogonDex, although currently not yet fully realized, is by far the best current option for competitive battling reference, although other Pokédex sites like [[Psypoke]] and [[Veekun]] currently possess more information related directly to in-game interests on the original GB and GBA cartridges.
