'''TRsRockin''' is a website that focuses on Pokémon [[glitch]]es and contains information on Team Rocket from the early seasons of the Pokémon anime. It is a website for looking up Pokémon glitches, most commonly the [[Missingno.]] glitch. The site also contains glitches found in other video games, as well as a section for articles on NES games and merchandise.  One of the site's main philosophies is to create "a family-friendly site that anyone can enjoy". The name of the website is derived from a line from the 2B.A. Master song "Double Trouble", '''T'''eam '''R'''ocket''''s''' '''Rockin'''.
