Hello Sky! Welcome to the Pokecommunity, it's lovely having you aboard :)
It's good to hear you're getting into the newer gen! They're all great games with a lot of stuff to do. Say, are you currently playing any of the newer games? X&Y? Omega Ruby & Alpha Sapphire? Are there any games in particular you'd say are your favorites? If you want to chat about the newer gen games, you should definitely stop by the
main series Pokemon gaming boards, and check out
Pokemon Gaming Central too!
Hope to see ya around ^^
