5) Complete Your Pokedex
Make 2008 the year you get every available Pokemon. Whether it's from playing previous games, trading with friends, finding trading partners on our excellent discussions boards, or snagging Pokemon off of GTS, there's no reason not to complete your Pokedex this year. Do all your work now and when the final three Pokemon in Diamond/Pearl are released (Darkrai, Shaymin, and Arceus), your Pokedex will be ultimately complete.

To kick off the new year, we're going to be giving away a Mew. This is one rare, powerful, and extremely versatile Pokemon. Mew works amazingly well as a Special Attacker, Physical Attacker, Baton Passer, and more. It all depends on how you EV train your Mew. The good news is that this particular Mew has not been EV trained at all and you can shape it into anything you wish. For a chance to win this Mew, head on over to our Pokemon General Discussion Boards and look for a thread called "Pokemusings #28: Win a Mew!!!" Take care for now and join us next week when we go over some Pokemon gambling odds!
