Hey there scandal, welcome to PokeCommunity :D I'm also a senior in high school so that's something we have in common there (try not to get senioritis >.<) And about working, hey, everyone's gotta start somewhere no? It sounds like you'd be interested in the
Let's Play forums and the
Challenges forums here. Random question: Do you plan to get X or Y? Perhaps both? Or maybe you're undecided.
If you have any questions, feel free to message me or any moderators here. In any case, welcome again and I hope you enjoy your time here.
