#ThankYouGameFreak from Pokémon Crossroads Users

**Crossroads Bulletin** · 11-12-2019, 02:08 PM

Our community wouldn’t exist without you.

Pokémon Crossroads at its core is a fansite. We as a community come from all walks of life. While many of our users live in the United States, several active members are from Australia or Europe. We interact with each other every day, discussing our daily lives, new upcoming movie releases, but overall we join together to celebrate the world of Pokémon that brought us together in the first place. Without Game Freak, we as a community would not exist. Thus, when #ThankYouGameFreak started trending, many of our users took to Twitter to thank Game Freak for all it had done for us over the years.
Thank you for the Memories

#ThankYouGameFreak for all the amazing memories that I’m able to reminisce on and share with those close to me. It’s helped me connect with so many others I can call some amazing friends. Never Forget.

Senior Moderator Chakramaster expressed his gratitude for the memories he had made over the years when playing Pokémon. Truly it is the stories and memories we share with each other about our individual experiences with Pokémon that make the franchise as a whole special. Since no one’s experiences are exactly alike, we can bond over the unique impact each game has one all of us.
Thank you for Friendship

#ThankYouGameFreak for helping me make friends when I felt left out. For giving me something to look forward to every year and for the epic adventures that lie ahead. Pokemon means so much to me and I am forever in your debt.

User Akiachi expressed their appreciation for the games giving them a chance to make new friends through the games. The regular releases gave them something to look forward to and no doubt eagerly discuss with all their friends as the November release dates draw ever closer each year. The same can be said for many members of the PXR community, where we have been able to make friends and connections throughout the world by discussing the games releases every year.
Thank you for Favorites

#ThankYouGameFreak for the many awesome years of great Pokémon memories and keeping me hooked ever since I was 17. Also, thanks for making Emolga the most lovable sky squirrel ever. pic.twitter.com/Bwht6q2GlL

Everyone has a Pokémon that they favor, and while it may be hard to decide who your favorite Pokémon is overall, it’s not secret that PXR Admin Neo Emolga’s favorite is well… Emolga! So when he decided to thank Game Freak, he thanked them not only for the friendships and memories he had made since he first started playing, but for the creation of his favorite Pokémon, because the PXR surely wouldn’t be the same without it.
Thank you for Careers

I’d also like to say #ThankYouGameFreak for helping me on my track to become interested in politics. I unironically learned how to negotiate with people because of backyard Pokémon card trading.

While Senior Moderator NobleJanobii made several tweets, thanking Game Freak for friends, memories, artistic and writing inspirations, as well as all the hard work that Game Freak put into Pokémon Sword & Shield, which you can find here and here, we felt this tweet was the most interesting out of the three. Having actually been at a political conference while making these tweets, NobleJanobii made it clear that without the influence Game Freak had on her life when she was younger, she may have never chosen the career path she did. Game Freak, in many ways, changed her life.
Thank you for Everything

I have had nothing but fun when it comes to my Pokémon experience. #ThankYouGameFreak

Game Freak brought us all together through fun experiences with their games. Whether you know them best through Pokémon, or one of their side games like Pulseman and Drill Dozer, they have brought fans fun and joy for many years, and we hope they will continue to do so for many years to go. This is to the memories, the friendships, the favorites, the careers, and everything else that Game Freak has shaped over the years.
From our community to yours, thank you.
