Yeah, you're right. I'd like to see some cameos as well. I can't imagine there not being any in X/Y but who knows... Maybe, we'll get some in Pokémon Z, if they ever make one, that is xD
By the way, do you do competitive battling? I used to train EV Pokémon back in Pokémon Diamond and I'd battle lots of people with neat strategies. Unfortunately, I haven't been able to keep up with the more recent games, so I don't know which strategies and Pokémon would be best to use etc. But maybe, I'll get into it again. EV training must have become a lot easier with the hordes.
Wow, I think it's really cool that you play games in Japanese! You must have learned lots of Japanese letters to be able to read it. I used to study Hiragana letters on a nice web site and I knew quite a few of them but by now, I've forgotten most of them.
Which kinds of self-study books do you use?
Haha, what a coincidence that both our mothers are into languages which eventually encouraged us to learn languages as well :3
By the way, you can't believe how happy your compliment about my English makes me! There were some other people who said the same but nontheless, it's still great to hear everytime!
In Germany and Austria, most kids learn English in school starting at the age of 10. Still, I have to say that most Germans and Austrians are not really good at speaking it. Most of my former class mates hated it.
For me, English is like a second native language because my mother and I would speak it when I was little all the time. I usually prefer English over German as well. For example, if a book, game or movie is available in both German and English, I will always choose the English version. I don't know why, though. I guess, to me, English is more emotional, if that makes sense haha.
By the way, where in the US do you live? (I mean as in which state and which major city is close to you.)
