Hey there! My first game was Red/Blue/Yellow too <3 It was one of the greatest games I've played
when I was just 8 or 9 years old. And yeah.. I lost track of Pokemon when I got into high school too but I never really lost interest completely. However, Pokemon loves to come back to you whenever and nostalgia just hits you like a bag of bricks. Yeah, been there!
Welcome to the forums, btw. :3 You are going to make really awesome friends here, just like me & Cirny for example. We, as well as others here in the community are really friendly and we love talking about Pokemon as much as you do. Gardevoir is one of my favorite psychic types out there, and she is really amazing in terms of her Pokedex description. As Cirny mentioned, your introduction is perfectly okay, so there's no need to explain anymore in detail :3
Take the time and explore what PC is all about, and be sure to contact any staff member like Cirny or anyone in bold blue/orange/red, as they're extremely helpful and friendly. :3 See you around and have a wonderful time. :)
