    Hello people. Thought it would be a great idea to find a Pokemon forum and see what happens. I haven't played a Pokemon game since Silver on Gameboy Color when it was new. Thought it was about time to give it a try again. Went out and purchased the last available new DSi I could find, and the last new copy of Pokemon Black. Was a good day :)

    Something I've never done was play with any other players (I'm old! Well, 31 now. So I wasn't going to go out and find kids to play with) but now with the interweb connections and such, I can do that... I guess. Had a trade with a Japanese player using that guy up at the top of the Pokecenter and that was pretty cool! So far though, I haven't been able to use some of the other features because I can't seem to find other players. Like joining someone in that Entralink thing.

    Anyways! Long winded. Just saying hi. We'll see what comes of this. Happy to be here. I'll be jumping around this site for a bit to see what I find. :D

    Hi there Zemus. I am Hikari (not my real name).

    Nice to see older fans joining PC, and I was one who was born just before the height of Pokemon taking off. Most of this forum's users are aged in their teens to early-20's so it's nice you're diversifying the ages a bit.

    I was just 7 when I got my first exposure to Pokemon - the anime. Then came my first Pokemon game, when I got Ruby for my 11th birthday. I have also gone on to play the 4th and 5th Generations.

    And congrats on getting Black, now's a great time to play 5th Gen with B2/W2 on the way.

    May I recommend General Pokemon Gaming Discussions and Current Generation Pokemon Gaming for all Pokemon gaming-related discussion.

    I am going to be 20 in October and I am not showing any signs of retiring as a Pokemon Trainer. Especially one who loves that Oshawott.

    If you get lost, contact someone with the bold name cos they are there to help you. Also, make some new friends if you can cos PC is a friendly community.

    And no advertising please, cos I hate adbots.

    Holy quick responses. Especially with it being 1am where I am.

    Hello, Xulek. Chrono Trigger is definitely going to be the next DS game I purchase :) Before copies become rare.

    Some very helpful info there, Hikari. Thanks for that. I have both of those links you mentioned opened. Will check 'em out after this message.

    With Black2/White2 coming out in October (If I remember correctly) I was aware of my perfect timing picking up a DSi. I'm solely a PS3 gamer (well, until now I guess) and I've been dying for an old-school RPG experience. But with all the bells and whistles of today. Pokemon fits the bill and then some!

    Hmmm, I assume I have a "friend code" or some crazy thing, correct? heh
    I'm still a little overwhelmed at all the features this game has. In-game right now I'm working on my third gym badge. Spending a lot of time looking for secrets, and making sure I collect every Pokemon and item on the way. Though I'm sure I missed a trash can or NPC somewhere.

    I'm up for trading Pokemon away, and I'd much rather trade with players I can potentially chat with on these forums here, then random people. I have no idea if/why anyone would need Unova Pokemon (no idea which ones aren't in White) but I do have a Lickitung, Aron, Lunatone, and a Drowzee (currently tucked in) from the Global Link site. all of which I'm definitely willing to part with for new interesting non-Unova (or non-Black at least) Pokemon :)

    EDIT: Just noticed the Trade Corner area on the site
     
    Egads. They're making me look slow.

    I'm also in my 30s and playing Pokémon. I'll be a gamer till I die, I think; there's just some sort of thrill rush from accomplishing something virtual that you can't do normally.

    With that said, I also play Black. Watch for indications that I was around as you go. My Pokémon like to leave trails, and early on, my Tepig was a messy eater. Something to do with being a pig.

    In any case, welcome. You already met the Mad Welcomer Hikari, I see.

    I have also been made to look slow. Well hey there, and welcome to PC ^.^! That's great you've gotten back into pokemon again, and you've gotten a good one as well :P I hope to see you around more often (;. If you need help, just VM me :)
     
    Hello, Cyclone. Glad I'm not the ONLY older person around here. I almost went with Tepig at the start, but settled on Snivy. I went with the fire-type Combusken (or was that an evolution of the starter? Hmm EDIT: Cyndaquil!) in Silver. Thought I'd try something different this time around. Sadly, I haven't found a decent fire-type that I like yet. Some interesting Leaf and Water types though, so I could have gone with Tepig and I would have been better off early on. Anyways, I'm happy with Snivy though!

    Hello there, Ninjagon. If I can somehow fit into this forum community then you'll see me around often. I have a moderate understanding of Pokemon, but never got involved with trading or battling with others. I finished Silver and put a lot of hours into it, but that was a lot of years ago. I'm mostly in the dark with a lot of the modern Pokemon stuff.

    Oh jeez, you guys are gonna make me look like an annoying little kid.

    I'm only fourteen, turning fifteen in four days. My mommy's buying me pokemon white and platinum for my burfday, I'd love to trade or battle with you if we get a chance! ^^
     
    Holy overbite. Am I that slow?
    Anyways, welcome to the PC Forums! Hope you'll enjoy your stay here.
     
    Thanks Flute! Thanks Daniel!
    Glad to be here. Add me with that friend-code thing!?
    I'm up for trading anytime. I have a handful of non-Unova Pokemon that I'm willing to part with just to add more to my Pokedex. Preferably below level 30 for Pokemon in return :)
