History
52Poké Wiki was originally created by its parent site Pokémon Zone in summer 2006, consisting of a few articles about aspects like Hoenn locations and anime characters. In 2008, it moved into a homebrew wiki system and created over 1,000 articles about Pokémon, moves, abilities, CDs and more.
In August 2010, 52Poké Wiki began its work to switch to MediaWiki system, and the wiki was fully transformed into a MediaWiki installation on September 1, 2010 with its current logo. Since then, 52Poké Wiki has quickly expanded to over 20,000 articles. It introduced its first project Project TCG on July 26, 2011.
Name
52Poké is from a wordplay of 我爱 and Pokémon. Its Chinese name is from 神奇宝贝, the official translation for Pokémon in Taiwan and mainland China (before 2010), and 百科, which means encyclopedia.
