Welcome to Poliwager!
Welcome to Poliwager, the most Poliwag filled site ever! We're a small, friendly, fun-loving community that centers around Pokémon!
The Poliwager Adoptables is a place to adopt your own Pokémon eggs and interact with other users' Pokémon! There are monthly events to win prize eggs that contain Legendary Pokémon, and many other areas to explore!

Hey! I was recently interviewed on the As The Pokeball Turns podcast! I talked about the history of Poliwager, my history with the Pokémon franchise, and more! I hope you enjoy it if you take a listen!
Also, I have added a Cool Websites & Links page to the sidebar menu here, showing off some sites I find interesting, cool, and stuff I like checking out regularly. I'll probably be continually updating this page, so feel free to take a peek! I've also updated the About page for the site and myself!

Hey everyone!
Today is the big day. Poliwager Forums was originally created on April 10, 2009, and that means today is the 15th birthday of the forum!
Here's a Snapshot from the Internet Archive from 2009. It's crazy to think how far we've come. When the site first started, I created it using a free forum software website, and in November 2010, we moved to our current site: forums.poliwager.net. During that initial move, we unfortunately lost the old site's posts and topics, but the team worked hard to create them here and raise awareness of the server change, and it allowed greater customization over the years and flexibility for what we wanted the site to become. We've been a hub for Poliwager Adoptables updates and discussion, Pokémon discussion, all the way back since before HeartGold and SoulSilver came out, and just a good place to hang out with fellow friendly Pokémon fans. I'm so happy you've been here for it all, whether you just arrived, or you've been around for years already!
Today, we have a total of:
Total posts: 63,904
Total topics: 2,414
Total members: 1,042
Let's celebrate, and continue to share this space as a fun, social area of the internet that all can enjoy! Tell us about your favorite memories of the forums too by going to the announcement topic!

Well everyone, we've made it. Today is the 15th birthday of Poliwager! Back in 2008, the site was started. If you want to read some more of the history of the site, feel free to dig through the archives here! It's always amazing to think back on what the site has grown to be in those years since it was started, and it's all thanks to YOU! The reason this site is still going strong is because of people like you, the people who read the updates I make, the people who adopt Pokémon and play with others on Poliwager Adoptables, the people who share what's happening in their lives on Poliwager Forums and on our Discord servers, and anyone who has been with us along the way. Thank you so much for being here, and here's to another great year on the site! If you have anything you'd like to share of your favorite Poliwager memories, feel free to post them in the Poliwager's 15th Anniversary event topic!
As always, it's important to bring attention to some recent updates to the site, including the Poliwager Adoptables updates from recent months, like new Achievements and more! Poliwager Forums has a new style that you can select by going to the User Control Panel called "Flat Style Blue", a modern looking forum style! We also got to 1,000 members on Poliwager Forums in July of this year!
Let's party, shall we?

Hey all! A few weeks back, I was interviewed for a Pokémon newsletter called Johto Times, a Pokémon blog about the history of the Pokémon franchise and more. I was interviewed about the history of Poliwager, and there of course are some Pokémon tidbits in there as well! A link to the interview can be found here. Thanks so much to Johto Times for the opportunity!
