Important, Quick Update
Added 2021-05-01 10:07:20 +0000 UTCHey folks, as always, I wanna start by saying so much for the monthly support :) I'll be quick in this one, just two things I share -- first, there's gonna be a huge Satoshi Tajiri translation article posted here in about 48 hours. The biggest and best one yet, in my opinion. It'll include an 8 page interview from the 1996 Japanese book "Pokedex," 10 pages from the Tajiri biographical manga, and various other sources with information relevant to the 1996 interview.
And the second thing is that all Patreon-exclusive articles are now password protected, and the password is "Pokemon History Club." Same password for every article. Just a precaution to keep this big new translation (and other big ones coming in the future) from falling into the wrong hands. And by that I mostly mean pump-and-dump PokeTubers. Okay that's all for now, check back in two days. Cheers :)
Oh and in case you missed any of them, here are links to all the previous Patron-only articles and videos:

Whoops, you're right. One of those instances where grammatically correct punctuation is actually a bad call >_< Thanks for pointing that out. Cheers Borbala :)

I tried to use it and I did not understand why it's not working. Again, thanks so much for all the great work. I love learning about the history of Pokémon, the creators and the beta stuff. I wish more people would appriciate these.
