The PokéMasters is a fan site run by Pokemaster Kevin, and hugely helped by Admins Little Pikachu and Chris. It has a strong team of Super Moderators and Moderators to keep the site running. It is one the most popular Pokémon fan sites as of 2005. A solid group of regulars keep the site going with continuous influxes of new members to keep the forums fresh.

The PokéMasters site was started in 2000, and the forums (powered by UBB 5) opened in March of the same year. The site was highly successful and the forums also incredibly active. Unfortunately, these ultimately led to ever-increasing bandwidth costs, which crippled the site in 2002. Having to switch registration on and off, asking for donations and such, TPM finally went down.

The forums were later restarted on ezboard, which was a heavy blow to the community. Coming back from that loss in late 2002, the forums and site were started again, but without as much of the bravado and sway that it once held.

The PokéMasters forums is now the site's main hub of activity, and although many members have become indifferent to Pokémon, they stay simply to socialize with each other.
