Aw shucks, not many Pokemon fans over in Ireland, huh? :( That stinks! But thinking about that though, I don't see many here in America either... it's mostly kids. Then again, maybe the older fans are just hiding it, ehe. Welcome to the forum!
I'm a die hard Pokemon fan too; we all are! You've picked a super special awesome forum to get involved in. Out of all the forums I've been on I think this one is one of the nicest and most creative out there. People are always drawing, writing, making hacks, chatting about theories, and other fun things. You should get involved! Do you like the Pokemon games mainly, or are you a fan of other parts of the franchise like the anime or merchandise? There's a place to discuss eveeeerything here, which includes things like clubs and forum games, so I hope you'll consider poking around the whole place rather than just a few boards. <3 C'mon, tell us a bit more about yourself. We love getting to know new peeps and you're no exception. I feel like we might have more in common than meets the eye. I'm mostly interested in simpler things like your favorite game, Pokemon, what you do outside of Pokemon, and things like that. Glad you got such a warm welcome here already; hopefully that means you're lovin' us so far. :D
Hope you have a blast exploring and be sure to let me know if you need anything. I'd love to have endless chats with you about lots of random things, Pokemon or non-Pokemon. And while you're at it, go check out fun little boards like
Pokemon Clubs or
Pokemon Trivia to get to know our fans! We have plenty of fun Pokemon boards but those are among some of the few that stand out when it comes to meeting cool new friends. Any place you decide to check out will be a great journey, though, so I'll leave you to it and cross my fingers that you have fun.
Huge pleasure meeting you and welcome again, Darko. :) I'm always here if you need something, as are the other
moderators.
