The logo used for the site until the 2010 overhaul.
Status: Lost
In more recent years, Pokémon.com has featured online games to promote the Pokémon franchise. Most are Flash-based, though more recent games have been Java-based. While most still exist on the site and many that have been removed have been mirrored elsewhere, a few games that were removed don't seem to exist anywhere. The ones that were originally on Pokémon.com were not found on Internet Archive's Wayback Machine as there seems to have been a period where most of Pokémon.com wasn't archived and in some cases, included the entirety of the games section.
