Subscribers to the Pokémon magazine received a [[Beckett to seemingly cease production of Pokémon magazine|surprise]] several months back when they cancelled their well known Pokémon magazine, ''Beckett Pokémon Unofficial Collector''. They then began publishing Beckett Game Strategist, a bi-monthly magazine concerning Pokémon Yu-Gi-Oh, {{wp|Bakugan}}, and other popular card games. Apparently, Beckett cancelled many of it's other magazines and merged them into Game Strategist (possibly due to the US economy at the time). It included a Pokémon section, containing reviews for new video games, {{bp|Pokémon Trading Card Game|TCG}} card price guides, and other {{bp|Pokémon}} information. This month, subscribers received a letter stating that the magazine had been cancelled and merged with the existing magazine Beckett Fun Online Games, something which had been hinted upon last month with the magazine being called "Beckett Game Strategist featuring Fun Online Games". Fun Online Games now includes a Game Strategist section containing articles covering Pokémon, {{wp|Yu-Gi-Oh!}}, and other popular card games, although less articles concerning those games are being released.
