Heey Nargle, welcome~! Very glad you took that first step to introduce yourself and it's nice to meet you!
So what exactly brings you here to the forum? Anything you want to do in particular or did you just want to join a Pokemon community? Would've loved to make suggestions on sections you might be interested in here but you didn't say much about yourself, so... D: Well, it's all on you if you want to talk more about yourself or not, but either way is fine! Notice you're from New York which is cool as I'm from there as well (though I can't say I like it very much, haha). And you're a Totodile fan according to your usertitle which I also totally approve of! <3 He's really cute and one of the best water starters right next to Squirtle; you have great taste, yep.
What are your interests outside of Pokemon? PC doesn't just focus on Pokemon discussions since we have a lot off off-topic sections too, so those will likely be good for you depending on your interests as well. You can debate, answer polls, join clubs (Pokemon and non-Pokemon) as well as pleeenty of other things, so get exploring! I'd love to get to know you as a person so you can always leave a message on my profile if you want. Can talk to pretty much anyone you like since we're a friendly bunch over here. ^^
Make sure to give the rules a read if you haven't already, and enjoy your stay here!
