I totally agree with Sheep; your avatar's just adorable! Did you make it yourself, or...? If you did, then your art skills are amazing. If not, then they're still good either way, I'm pretty sure. Haha.
Hi there Eli, and welcome the forum! So, tell us... Pokémon is divided into many aspects--what part of it are you particularly interested in? If you're a fan of the anime, then you should probably check out our
Pokémon Anime anime section. We have a lot of people over there just itching for anime-related conversations; the more you hang out, the more friends you'll get to make. If you are a competitive battler, maybe you should pay a visit to
Battle Center. If TCG interests you, then check out
this forum. Personally, I'm into the games, so I usually just hang around the gaming sections such as
PGC.
Speaking of games, which is your most favorite? For me, it would have to be Blue. This is the first Pokémon game that I had ever gotten, and as soon as I put it into my GameBoy and started playing, I instantly got attached. When I was a kid, I used to play it almost every day. Pokémon Emerald would have to be my second favorite, and X/Y is my third.
Anyway, I really hope that you enjoy your stay here. If you ever need anything, feel free to send a message to anyone in
bold blue or
orange. You may also contact those who are in
red, but they may not be able to get back to you quickly as they're pretty busy (most of the time, anyway). See ya around! :]
