History

Pokejungle's history goes back to the year 2003. As posted by Pokejungle in his bio: "A little PJN History: Started in late 2003 / early 2004 when I was 13. I used my ISP’s free webspace. Hosts of PJN include Earthlink, Hosting Anime, Freewebs, Shyper, Elixant, and Downtown Host “PokeJungle” was the original site name until I added “Network” awhile after. There was also a period of time (2 months maybe) when it was called “Crobat’s Jungle”. The early forums used ProBoards and were named “Crobat’s Cavern”. This later became Mt. Moon Community after we rebranded it and launched it on my own hosting. Most people to visit my site in one day was 10,000 when Diamond and Pearl launched. So far in the BW era I have reached near 7,000 people in one day."[1]
