...I'm parched.

So, hey. I'm Canen, a lifelong Pokemon fan and all round good guy.

I've been on the outside looking in when it comes to the PC forums for some time but i've decided to stick my oar in to the water and become a regular poster. There are a lot of contributors here I have to thank at some stage for giving advice on emulation and such (they don't know I need to thank them, google is a wonderful thing after all).

Basically, i've owned almost every game since the original R/B. It's been a wonderful journey and up until my DS broke last year I had up to Diamond and Pearl. Now i'm using a DS emulator with Platinum, and very shortly will be getting stuck into Black and White (1 & 2) so I can get up to speed on how things have evolved.

Anyway, enough of my bull. Thanks for having us, and looking forward to becoming a regular thorn in everyone's side.

Much love.

Hey, Canen!

Welcome to PC!

I must admit that I love that authentic/genuine feeling your introduction gives off. I'm glad you finally decided to join us here at PokéCommunity after that long while you said you spent lurking. xD Believe me, being able to post/make topics definitely makes the experience ten times better. :]

You seem to be really into emulation and stuff, which is awesome! You probably already know that we have a large number of ROM hackers here, and I think that's what makes PC very notable and different from other online communities.

I'm glad to see you're an older player. :D I also started playing when R/B was released and have never looked back since. I'm so sorry to hear your DS broke, though. Nintendo really needs to invest in better components for their systems because they break so easily. @[email protected] I haven't had any problems with my 3DS thus far, but I know a ton of people who have had issues with hinges/screens/etc with their previous DS systems.

I know you said you haven't tried out Black and White 1 or 2 yet, but it's awesome to hear that you're going to eventually try them out. You may or may not have known, but Pokémon X & Y (generation VI) are going to be released this October for the 3DS. I do hope that you stick around for the release of those. :p

You seem like an all-around cool guy, and I do hope you stay active within the community!

If you'd ever like to chat or have any questions, don't hesitate to leave a visitor message on my profile! I'd be glad to be friends. :P

Enjoy yourself!

Thanks Gyardosamped, I really appreciate the warm welcome. It's not often I get such a nice welcome post!

The emulation section is increadible here, I have to say, and I do believe it's one area where the games that are "out of reach" for people who either can't afford a DS or have a broken DS (whatever the reason) really needs development in general. Luckily the good people at PC seem to have it covered and I feel less isolated now by being on an emulated version than I did a while ago. I am still stuck in the "need to find a way to battle people using no$gba emulator" mode, but i'm sure these questions will get answered in time, one way or another.

As for being old school, i'm glad to see there are people here who appreciate the golden days. I live in Manchester, UK, and still remember the day that Nintendo turned up at the Trafford Centre to dish out Mew, the first event pokemon, way, way back. I got one, entered the Pokemon Stadium tournament and went home fairly happy.

Three days later, my Red version erased itself and along with it Mew. Life's a *****. :P

Anywho, I'm keeping a keen eye on the X & Y version developments and hopefully by the time it comes out i'll already have caught Kyurem and ground N into the dirt where all AI controlled opponents belong.

Once again, thanks for the welcome. I hope I can be an active, interesting and awesome contributor.
