Hey there Pixelani, welcome to the PokeCommunity! It's always great to meet a longtime Pokemon such as yourself, many of our members have been playing since near the start too. I'm sure you'll be happy to know we have sections for every aspect of Pokemon, I hope you hop into some of those conversations!
What kind of convention do you run? Is it for a specific series or for anime overall? We do have a growing anime section, where other members talk about about anime & manga. You may find it
here if you'd like to check it out. Feel free to send me a VM if you ever want to chat, I hope to see you around our community! ^-^
