Hi there! I found this site while looking for somewhere to organize trades and it looks like the most well organized (at least the way my head works) and active site for that purpose so I made an account and I'm now having a look around. I noticed a common thing seems to be refusing to trade with anyone from the site who has "fewer than X posts" (which makes perfect sense to me) so I'm making this thread to start building up my post count.
I've been a fan of pokemon and virtual pets in general since they were all the rage when I was in high school in the mid-late 90s. The first pokemon game I played was Red and I had to steal my brother's gameboy to play it (because girls apparently didn't like video games then so every time I asked for my own I'd just get another tamagotchi instead). I kept pretty up to date with the games until real life took over and my DS Lite got given to a friend's daughter, along with my copies of Soul Silver and Heart Gold. I kept up playing my browser based pet collection games but they were never really the same.
Last year things changed for me and the release of Pokemon Go got me interested again. A friend gave me a 2DS and an bunch of games as a birthday present when Go got updated out of what my phone would support (still working on fixing that so I can start playing again - if anyone wants to trade a Samsung Galaxy S3 for something good let me know lol). Included in the games were Alpha Sapphire, Omega Ruby, and a couple of months later their spare copy of Moon - mainly because my friend wanted someone they could trade with on demand. About 10 minutes into AS my addiction was back in full force and that has led to me signing up here.
Unfortunately I had a complete brainfart and, for the purposes of sorting, transferred my entire Bank collection to Moon, meaning I can't move most of my pokes onto the other two games I have and will probably have to do most of my trading in SuMo. That said, I do have a bunch of semi-decent pokes on my new run of AS and I'm working on expanding that.
I have a thing for spreadsheets and created one to keep track of my collection in google docs. It allows for all bank compatible variants of all pokemon, along with shinies. I can't post the link yet but as soon as I can I will happily share it if anyone wants to make a copy for their own use. (Edit - I added the link to my profile if you're interested. The "Female" and "Male" tabs are still works in progress but the "National" one is good to go.)
So again, hi! I'm Kam, I love pokemon, and I look forward to hopefully becoming an active member of this community.
PS:
If anyone is interested for organizing trades, I live in BC in Canada (that's High Plains Vivillons) so I'm on Pacific time - but that doesn't really mean much. I'm typing this at 2 am and it's really not weird for me to be awake now or at any other time of the day.
