Congratulations! Your free forum review has been completed. The forum review will hold many tips, suggestions, comments, and feedback that's convenient and voluntary for your forum. Here is your forum review:

Generalities

First Impressions (Score: 17/20):
Well I thought it was cool but I am really not a Pokemen person so I can't say much. But I can say that your HTML page doesn't have the navagation links that you have on the forum. I would say you should add that since it will help and be able to move around the forum cause if you just have it to go to the forum and nothing else then what is the point in have it anyways?
Categories & Forums (Score: 7/10): Every section looks like its being used but I really would say if you would remove some till your forum looks active cause if you have a lot of section it makes your forum low and no one will want to join. If you have little that members can post you will attract new members.

Generalities total :: 24/30

Forum Style

Major Graphics (Score: 8/10):
BannerWay better than what you had before. But the only thing is that the writing is a bit harder to read. I suggest you make it bigger.
Navigation Bar
You kind of have to much navigation bars on your forum. I would make a widget or something that can move and can be moving in and out from the side of the forum those removing off the navigation are twitter, YouTube, statistics, Deviantart, and Resorces so that it is easier to move around the forum so that you don't have to keep on going to the top to go to each place.
Forum Layout & Color Scheme (Score: 9/10): I don't know if its just me or your forum is missing the border on the right side and its behind the content. Might be a CSS problem. But the color scheme fits really well is is displaying the content that is needed so that it doesn't hurt the members get side tracked and miss out of what is needed to be read.
Images & Icons (Score: 10/10): The images do fit really well with the forum theme and there is nothing that is needed nor does it have to add any more.

Forum Style total :: 27/30

Usergroups

Population of Groups (Score: 9/10): I would say its a far amount of staff groups that you have. The only thing is that you don't have any people in the graphic designer and I would remove it till you get someone so that your forum doesn't look like no one is helping with graphics on the forum.
Staff Groups / User Groups (Score: 9/10): The Battle Organizer is really hard to read and should be a lot darker so guest and members knows who is who and don't have to look really hard. Plus people with eye problems will get really mad. Make the content readable.

Usergroups :: 18/20

Forum Activity

Post/Member Ratio & Quantity (Score: 8/10):
Our users have posted a total of 5827messages
We have 81 registered users
The newest registered user is nayan96

I can say this is that you need messages and you should really have few sections to post from till your activity grows since when you are starting it looks like your forum is having problems and you want to show that you have it growing.
Users Active (Score: 7/10):
Members connected during last 24 hours : Arcaniner, Cyruszoid, JophieL, Kaadu554, lillystar, MewtwoMaster, Mystic_gohan2, nayan96, RadioStar42, Skorge, Umbreon49, zappyspiker

You need to send out news letters about whats going on since the members here looks like they know but the others don't I also suggest you try to get a contest for member to bring in others and see how many can come and then give them a prize. This way the forum will get spread out on the web and be known to users.
