*[[The PokéMasters]] changed the themes of its main site and forums to "cute" themes, disabling the style changing dropdowns on both. The forums also implemented a word filter that automatically changed various swear words into words such as "hug", "rainbow", and "pie", and also redirected the link back to the site to a [[wp:Rickrolling|Rickroll]] site. Additionally, the site's announcement of the [[Yellow Forest]] [[Pokéwalker]] event was written in the language of [[Pikachu]]. | *[[The PokéMasters]] changed the themes of its main site and forums to "cute" themes, disabling the style changing dropdowns on both.

*[[Psypoke]]'s main page at http://www.psypokes.com/ was totally replaced with what appeared to be an older version of the site, with the header text saying that the site's estimated completion date would be "roughly three years from now". The site also asks for visitors to click on its ads, such as the fake banner ad on the right of the page, to help it generate revenue; a reference to when it had heavy advertising. Clicking on any of the links (including the aforementioned fake ad) takes visitors to the ''actual'' main page at http://www.psypokes.com/index2.php. | |||
