Welcome to PC, Crow! It's always nice to have more people like you aboard, adding to the wide selection of budding ROM hackers here at PC. I really hope your interest in hacks proves to create a good amount masterful creations. If you haven't already, head on over to the Emulation > ROM Hacking department and get started, maybe with a quick read on some stickies to take note of along with the forum-wide rules. We also have tons of discussion threads on Pokémon in general, so if you feel like just talking about the franchise as a long-time fan, feel free to do so.
I saw you post in the Adoption Center (good move imo) and this point might have been missed to you but try to make it a habit to read the first post of a thread every time you decide to browse it, and especially if you plan on posting. Like how Megan advised you back there! It'll do ya good with knowing how to proceed with your post in most threads, really. :3
Good luck with your hacking endeavors! :D
