Hi Legolas, weeelcome to the forum! I'm glad to meet you and hopefully you're excited to be here as well!
Hah, well we already have something in common, I've been following Pokemon since its early days too. Red and Blue started it all for me.. as well as the Pokemon anime. If you're such a big Pokefan, you should explore around the community and get involved in all of the Pokemon boards we have. :) 23 years isn't old at all either, I'm 22 so we're not too far apart! Surprising to realize that I have loved Pokemon since I was 7 or 8 now. A huge chunk of the community is interested in X and Y so there are a lot of discussions going on around those games; be sure to check out the board AWsquared linked you to. And we might just run into each other over there, too, as I've been trying to get myself to post more there haha. There has been so much cool news lately that it's hard to rip yourself away~
So do you mostly play the games then? Any interest in the anime, merch, or trading cards? And as already stated, why not tell us what you like outside of Pokemon? :D We have myriads of off-topic boards to try out as well and they're just as popular as our Pokemon boards, so PC isn't only about Pokemon. You can discuss music in
General Entertainment, discuss the latest news in
Discussions & Debates, post your art in
Art & Design, and so on. Many, many choices waiting for you.
Have a great time, all right? Be sure to let me know if you need aaaany help at all!
