About the Site

Welcome to my Pokemon fansite! Mirage Island has a bunch of random pages to do with Pokemon, usually for fun, but they do attempt to be useful sometimes too. Most of the content focuses on Gen IV & V, the games I enjoyed when I was younger.

Feel free to drop me an email if you've spotted any mistakes or you have suggestions for my site! I used to be on various Pokemon forums but I no longer check them regularly.

Site History

I wasn't around to see the golden age of personal websites, but a few of them were still online when I was younger. I loved to browse the now-defunct Eonlight Valley in particular, reading pages such as "Annoy in a Store" and "Annoy in a School". I especially liked the part about excuses for lateness; I was late to school every day, without fail, back then.

After that I lost interest in Pokemon for a few years, but as I got back into it, near the end of 2018, I remembered those websites. I learnt HTML/CSS to create this site from scratch in classic fansite style and picked up Javascript to handle the interactive elements. Designing the layout and writing the content was a lot tougher than I expected, resulting in several scrapped versions of the site, but at long last Mirage Island launched on 27th April, 2020.

This is not an official website. The Pokemon franchise belongs to Gamefreak, The Pokemon Company, Creatures Inc., and Nintendo, 1995 - 2020. Otherwise, the content of this website belongs to me, myuma/lapi.
