Well, why?




I joined because I looked up shiny Pokémon things on a daily basis. I stumbled across the Shiny Hunter's Club and joined a week later. I never intended to post anywhere else in the entire Forum, but I guess I kinda changed that. It's amazing how the smallest things can lead to major changes in life. Speaking of odd change, isn't/wasn't there a staff member who merely joined for ShinyGold? xP

Because the school blocked Serebii Forums and I needed an alternative so I chose this place which I like more than any other forum.

1) The November prior, my home forum (Hyrule Town Square) was shut down and Nintendo replaced it with NSider. I didn't like NSider very much and was looking for something to replace it
2) Knew Lightning from school

Normally, I don't join forums...but there is no one in my area that likes Pokémon, so I finally decided to find a decent forum. After lurking in several forums for a while, I decided PC was the best choice out of all of them. I have loved it here ever since. Though, I find I post outside of the Pokémon sections now.

ironically I joined to download ShinyGold. after that I just lurked for a year or so. I can't even remember that account anymore. I some how remembered this place a couple years ago and decided to see if there was anyone I recognized. so I looked up a couple people, most of which weren't here anymore so I went back to lurking for a few more months before becoming more active thanks to the DCC group last year. then I decided to donate my spare change gained a purple name for a while and then the rest is current history.

Good topic :D

I joined because quite simply I was looking for somewhere to post about Pokémon (Namely the earlier generations). A quick Google search revealed a list of forums, and I visited a few before eventually finding this place but none of them had the same appeal. PC seemed friendly and active and I liked the variety of discussions that were on offer, so I joined.

To join the PC Wifi tournament. It started in May, and that's all I did until mid august when my friends and I started our own tournament, so I guess I had a reason to be more active. But yeah, Wifi battling is the main reason I joined. I have a lot more reasons to stay now =D

I joined because I was a little mad at one forum and Kyoko(aka Baka Tenshi, Haine Togu, Angela, etc..)told me about this place. I joined the Ash's Fan Club and I just fell close to this place ever since.
And that particular forum(SPPf), they were totally strict that day. And I couldn't take it. When I seen this place was more laid back, I became more active here than the other forum. And then I gained a lot more friends, donated, and the rest is history. Oh yeah I was obsessed over the Pokemon anime as well. I been in that forum for awhile, but that day...grr. So that was when Kyoko aka Angela gave me that link.

I want to thank Kyoko aka Angela for giving me that link that day. ^^

I'm not 100% certain, but I think I was searching for a Pokemon Forum that had a good RP section.
I guess I stumbled across PC, joined Old Lace's (Zimvee's) Kanto RP and the rest is history.

I joined because I was looking to find a way to complete my pokédex. That and the fact that all the pokémon fans around where I live are either prepubescent or men in their 40's who are in it to 'meet people' *genuinely what one person I saw playing Pearl on the bus told me.* It was quite nice to join here and find fans around my own age who weren't creepy and to get so much closer to completing my pokédex.

I joined because my friend who hadn't made an account on here had downloaded shiny gold and then i joined because the site banner looked so awesome.
Also truthfully i found out that there were other great hacks to play as well.
And i think posting loads rocks

Heh, I joined way back when to advertise a little forum my friends and I had made. Not the illegal way, mind you-the legal, "put link in sig and post around" way. XD

But that little forum is long since dead, and even before it had, I was posting here just because I liked the place. And the Sabrina Fan Club is really what kept me coming here, and now look at me, XD. I'm in the top 300 posters, lulz.

I joined on this account because I was feeling nostalgic, and had started playing more Pokemon again.

Why I joined years back in the first place, I can't remember. I do remember noticing how much friendlier this forum was compared to one I went on before it, a DBZ forum called My Favorite Games, or MFG, so I think I ended up staying here and leaving that one (and eventually leaving PC). I never joined any other forum besides that one and PC.
