Longtime Pokemon Fan, Hi!
 
Hey there! I'm Devin. I've been into Pokemon for around 20 years. My first game was Pokemon Yellow. I recently got Ultra Moon so I've been looking for a forum to chat about it. c:

I've never been big into stats and competition, I just like using whatever Pokemon look cool. :15:

As for stuff outside Pokemon, I'm a college student majoring in environmental science. Just finished finals for spring semester last week. >_<

Anyways, nice to meet everyone!

Awesome! Been into Pokémon for around the same amount of time too ^^ Welcome Devin, nice to meet you. o/ Good to hear you're done with exams! How did you fare/how do you think you fared? I work in a university so the stress of finals is definitely still prevalent even if I'm not in school anymore haha.

TiredTomboy May 10th, 2018 5:13 PM

Not too bad, thanks for asking! Ended on a 3.0 with 3 A's and one F, lol. Also gosh I can imagine, just hearing "finals" gives me anxiety ;o;

Welcome to the forum :)
You guys been a long time fan, I only been a Pokemon fan for 18 years :D Enviromental science is fun :) May I know what ambition you have in mind?

TiredTomboy May 10th, 2018 6:33 PM

That's still a lot of time enjoying Pokemon :3

I'm not sure yet! I'm torn between ecology and the more chem-heavy stuff. Honestly anything involving nature would be cool, though!

Hey there! Welcome to PC!

I'm a long time Pokemon fan too, got into when when it first came to America so... however long ago that was! Glad to see more of us "old folk" joining forums and communicating more. :)

TiredTomboy May 11th, 2018 7:54 AM

Thanks so much everyone!! And agreed, it's nice to see other fans who've been around a while.

I don't remember for sure since it's been a while but it went something like:

Nidoking was my favorite for a really long time aside from issues in Sabrina's gym lol.

Noctis May 11th, 2018 8:04 AM

I loved Kanto. Everytime I play a pokemon game I always have an Alakazam on my team.

Heya Devin! I’ve been into Pokémon for a while myself, not as long as you though, but pretty close! I think it’s a nice change of pace that you use Pokémon not for their competitive abilities but more because you enjoy using them. If you have any questions, don’t hesitate to ask! Enjoy your time here :D

Not bad and I've gone games with an entire team of NFE's(Butterfree excluded of course). Favorite Pokemon is Vulpix so... yeah lol. Alolan variant makes me want to get Sun/UltraSun so bad but I just can't find the reasoning to do so.
