Hello everyone. I'm Absumo, and just joined PokeCommunity today. I'm hoping with time I'll have a far better grasp on not only what the community here is like, but also a better set of knowledge as to how everything works on this site. As for myself...:

I have been involved with the Pokemon games ever since Pokemon Red. I continue as well playing Pokemon Oras with occasionally Pokemon Go as well. I'm mostly interested in either trading or battling/team building concerning Pokemon in general. I took a fairly large brake from the battling aspect of Pokemon. However, I would like to return to the swing of things with battling to where I was, but preferably even better than before. Therefore I would like to learn everything possible about the battling and team-building aspect of Pokemon that perhaps I have never learned or even considered myself. For trading, I like to collect Pokemon I either didn't have yet for the pokedex, or for new ideas for team building.

I hope hear more from other people, and I hope all of you have a great day...or evening; whichever time zone you happen to be in.

(P.S. I'm basically a night owl. I'm far more active at night then during the day. Not sure if that is important information, but I figured I would get that out there?)

Ooh loving the Red avatar, Absumo! Welcome to PokéCommunity and hope you have a nice, long stay with us. :] Awesome to hear you're interested in trading and battling— have a feeling you'll enjoy the Trade Corner and Battling & Team Building forums. ^ ^ I'm certain you'll learn lots about battling and team building here on PC, lots of helpful battlers around to assist!
Red was your first Pokémon game eh? What starter did you pick back then, if you can recall, and how many games have you played since then? =o I'm a night owl too btw, I feel ya there! It's great to be one during the summer, but.. not so much during the school year. x'D

Hope you enjoy your stay on here a whole ton & see you around! Feel free to VM me whenever if you'd like to chat. ♥

I appreciate the welcome. Thank you very much for your post! I also appreciate the links as well to the trading corner as well as battle and team building section of the forums. I ended up spending a little while aimlessly wondering the forums in order to figure out how they work. Almost got the hang of it...almost >_>;

Concerning your questions, I remember clearly I picked Charmander for my starter in Pokemon Red. Ever since after Red version, I've played at least one Pokemon game in every single generation. If I had to be more specific, I'd say I remember playing aside from Red....Yellow, Gold, Crystal, Ruby/Sapphire/Emerald, FireRed, Diamond, Platinum, HeartGold, Black 2( I admit, there was a bit of a gap of silence for me during Gen V), Pokemon Y, and of course both Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire. The list of games outside of Pokemon though...that might require a new post in itself.

I agree with you as well during the summer. Its almost a survival trait to be a night owl where I'm from during summer x.x Although that might just be me...Anyways hope to see you around as well, and thank you again for the welcome to the site!

Aha I love when it's time to lay on my soft bed with my laptop on my lap.. that's a feeling I can only get at night. It's awesome. Welcome Absumo. :-3

Long time fan here too, pretty awesome to see others and we have quite a bit of older Pokémon fans around the forum here. Do you know if you'll be getting Sun or Moon? =o

Thank you for the welcome. That is good to know there are fans of Pokemon from practically any age really. For the new Pokemon games coming out this November I believe, I'll probably end up getting Pokemon Sun myself. However, there also might be a chance that I might just get both as well >_> It is what I ended up doing when Omega Ruby and Alpha Sapphire came out.
