Same here, I.T. stuff too nowadays. Well, your nickname sounds sort of familiar though (and not just referring to the console, hahha), so like you said, we probably have talked before.
I'm not really interested in pokemon these days, well, maybe a little bit, I tend to do rom hacking using Pokemon Silver though. But, I might have gone with an rpg game made by Square instead if I had enough knowledge at the time when I started. I'm pretty much hanging around because of helping out others at rom hacking section and publishing work of DE ("Dark Energy").
But I do like pokemon generations 1, 2 and 3 though so, well, you get the idea :)
