The Official PokéCommunity Adoption Center!★

Introduction - Feelin' Lost?

Oh, you can bet you're not the first! PC (PokéCommunity) is pretty great for providing you with the most up-to-date discussions on the newest games, best competitive strategies for beating all your friends, ROM hacking methods, and even how to make your own sprites! But, it can be veeeery disorientating and confusing when you're first startin' out. Lucky for you, PC isn't only one of the largest Pokémon forums, we're also the friendliest! Here you can actually find yourself a mentor that will take you under their wing and show you what this place really has to offer! Not to mention it's a quick way to make your first friend here!

I'm intrigued. How does that work?

Glad you asked! If you're new and want to find yourself a mentor, please do go ahead and post in this thread. Just tell us a little about what you're looking to get out of this community, and what you want out of a mentor. We've provided a template to make this easier, although it is not required:

1) What boards are you most interested in?
2) What boards are you most interested in getting to understand?
3) Would you like to venture out into other parts of the forum?
4) Are there any specific things you're looking to do while you're here?

To be considered as a mentee (or a new member), you must be active for less than two months -or- have less than 99 posts.

The list of mentors can be found at this thread!

This Thread!~

In order to keep this thread organized, we're gonna try and keep idle chit-chat to a bear minimum in the thread. Please encourage new members to use PM and VMs to communicate with you. When posting in this thread, be sure that both the New Users/Welcome rules, as well as the Global PokeCommunity Rules apply.

What can be posted here:
~Asking for a mentor
~Directing new members to a suitable mentor
~Offering to be a new member's mentor [only if you're on the list]

What cannot be posted here:
~Introductions (If you want to introduce yourself, to make a new thread we go!)
~Spam (it's not 20% cooler)

I found a mentor/I have adopted a new member, now what guys?

Now, one of you can post in the thread stating that you've found a mentor and/or you have become a mentor for a new member. This is only truly necessary if you made a post asking to find a mentor. That way we know to stop making suggestions and move on to the next pair-up!

Hey guys! I wanna be a mentor too!

Becoming a mentor is somewhat of a responsibility, and we reserve these positions for those members who we consider active, and who we believe will benefit our new members best. For that reason, there is an application process, and we will be using personal discretion in selecting new mentors. Listed below you will find the rules for application as well as the template. If you qualify and you wish to participate, then by all means fill out the template (inside the spoiler) and send Megan or Snivy a Private Message.

Read this announcement for more information on mentorship. We are currently recruiting mentors for various sections.

Requirements for Becoming a Mentor:
~You must have been a member for at least three months (90 days from your join date)
~You must have little-to-no infractions (old infractions will be investigated)
~You must have made a post nearly every day for the last thirty days to prove activity (This will obviously be subjective)

1) What time zone do you reside in?
2) What board(s) of PC do you frequent?
3) How long have you been posting there?
4) Have you contributed to said board(s) in some way? If so, how?
5) Why do you want to be a Mentor?
6) How will you help make the PC Adoption Center a success?

**By submitting this application you understand that the positions are limited in scope, and you may be put on a waiting list. You also agree that becoming a mentor is up to PC Staff discretion, and that you may also be removed at any time if you are deemed either inactive or unsupportive in your role.

Don't worry people, we don't bite! ;D

Think of it as having a new friend to show you around. Just like if you transferred to a new school, you might have someone show you around and such! :)​

1) What boards are you most interested in?
Everything related to pokemon games ( that would be "Current Generation Pokémon Gaming" & "General Pokémon Gaming Discussions" ) + clubs (both Pokemon Clubs and Other Clubs).

2) What boards are you most interested in getting to understand?
Erm.. the same ones as listed above xD
But I guess that the clubs here are something I have a bigger problem understanding right now ^^"

3) Would you like to venture out into other parts of the forum?
Of course, If a topic interests me and I have something to say.. then I will post It.

4) Are there any specific things you're looking to do while you're here?
Not really, just have fun :3


From the descriptions I guess... AlexOzzyCake?

He'll come by shortly to contact you. :3

1) What boards are you most interested in?
I am interested in the Metal and Color Generation boards, Advance Generation Games and everything in the Art Gallery :)
2) What boards are you most interested in getting to understand?
I would like to find out about the Role Play section as that seems like something I could get interested in :)
3) Would you like to venture out into other parts of the forum?
Definitely. If I see a post posing a question I have an opinion on, I will more than likely reply.
4) Are there any specific things you're looking to do while you're here?
I'm looking to try and get back into doing different things with pixel art as well as generally getting up to my eyeballs in Pokémon discussion :)

I see you're interested in a variety of forums here, and 5 of the mentors are willing to help you out (that is, if anyone posts here first!)

Since you're interested in the older generation gaming, your best choice would be Syd or Bob. For Roleplay, Roswell or Miss Doronjo, and for the Art Gallery, Abnegation.

Whichever, any of the 5 mentors I mentioned are more than happy to mentor you, and one will come here shortly!

Hi there SirDevin! Forever or Elite Four Lucian would be more than happy to mentor you throughout your stay at PC! Since you're more interested in B/W (based on your profile), then Forever would be a good match. :)

She'll be on shortly to take you!

Current Generation Pokemon Gaming.
2) What boards are you most interested in getting to understand?
Same answer as number one.

Probably. I'm a role-player as well as a gamer. (Although I'm not sure if there's a role-playing board. Lol.)
4) Are there any specific things you're looking to do while you're here?
Mostly make friends.

In terms of Current Generation Gaming, Is there a specific section that you're willing to know about? Maybe you'd like to know what the Black & White, 4th Gen, Trade Corner or CBC? We have mentors for each of those sections and they're all available.

For roleplaying, you have either Roswell or Miss Doronjo...and one of them are willing to show you around the Roleplay Corner. :)
