One of the most loved video games on this planet would be Pokémon. The game is still as popular today as it was when it first appeared in the 1990s. This game has been made in so many different versions like gold, silver, platinum, green, red and yellow. In the game, Pokémon Trainers (as players are known) can play Pokémon in many ways. These games are available on all kinds of Nintendo machines like gameboys, Wii and DS. A great option for gamers is to play online. Pokemon Crater was probably the most popular way to play Pokemon in the world.

Pokemon Crater started around the year 2000, shortly after the Nintendo versions. A teenager named Aaron was the creator and webmaster. Aaron was a die-hard Pokémon fan and needed to find a solution to play Pokémon with a close friend who had moved away. Thus, Crater was born and was soon used by thousands of people around the world. The website was similar to the traditional Pokémon game, allowing players to maneuver on different maps, discover and capture Pokémon. The game had a lot of updates on a regular basis so it kept improving the gameplay for the players. The biggest update has to be when they made it so players could interact with different players and battle Pokémon. The website listed the best current trainers, and being included in this registry was considered an honor in the world of Pokémon.

Pokemon Crater not only included the features of the traditional Pokemon video games, but also had some new parts, including a distinctive new Pokemon known as Dratinice. The Crater game was shut down around 2007 because Aaron didn’t have the resources to keep the game running. Much to the delight of many gamers, the site has been revamped by many other Pokémon online game sites.
