Hi there, welcome aboard! It would be best if your Friend Code is more advertised than just posting it in a certain thread or to your profile info, so as what as the two members above me suggested, put it on your signature! :) .. Also, you could do a lot of things here aside from battling and trading you could also join certain discussions about Pokemon, so take your time to explore the forum as a whole I'm sure you'd also find something interesting here aside from your usual ones! :P
Plus, you could also make a whole bunch of friends here! Since your really into the trading and battling scene, I'm sure it would be very easy for you to make friends as there are a lot of members into trading and battling as well! Besides, your a new member after all, everyone would be pleased to meet you! :D ...
Have fun posting and browsing PC, and don't forget to stick to the rules as always! If you have any questions, don't hesitate to approach me, I don't bite and it's my pleasure to help you out, I'll reply as soon as possible!
