I keep thinking of the Pokemon Minccino when I see your username.. is that what you wanted to base it off of? It's certainly an adorable Pokemon and one of my very favorites, hehe. Anyways, welcome to the forum, Miccino!
Glad you're looking forward to being a member here; we are a lovely forum and tons of people who are all awesome join every day. Anything in particular you decided to become a member for? A lot of peeps come to discuss Pokemon with other fans but we also get members looking to get into ROM hacking, those who are interested in showing off their art or writing, and so on. :) Personally I joined in 2006 just for hacking at first but nowadays all I really do is post around the forum rather than trying out fangames. They're really great, but there is a ton to do here and you'd miss out if you only kept to a specific place! What do you like as far as Pokemon goes? You know, things like your favorite Pokemon, game/generation, type, and such. There might just be a club or two open in
Pokemon Clubs that you can join depending on what you're most interested in; check it out sometime, yeah?
Hopefully you do find that special place soon, so be sure to keep on exploring and have a good time! There's always someone around to chat or help you out if you need it, so messaging one of us is always a good option. I'm always around if you're looking for a Pokemon-loving friend, for example. I'm also around to help anytime! <3 Don't be scared to ask if you need some help, though you can also post your forum-related issues in the
Questions & Feedback board. We'll be quick to help you out there.
Perhaps you'd be interested in welcoming your fellow newbies sometimes as well? They're all great people and would all love to meet a new person. After all, that's what makes a forum fun, right?!
Pleasure meeting you and welcome again!
