Just wanted to introduce myself and say hi. Been a fan and user of Bulbapedia for my pokemon info for a long time and decided to join the forum.
A bit of my Pokemon history; I started playing Blue when it came out when I was in college (Bulbasaur was my starter). I love each generation of the game and they all have pokemon in them I really like, but Gen 1 is still my favorite, not that I look down on other generations at all. A few months before Y came out, my wife who always scoffed at Pokemon, picked up Emerald and a used GBA and got hooked, so now she and I play X and Y respectively. This is also the first generation that I've really had much interaction with other people with. I've never had people in my IRL life who played Pokemon to battle and trade with, and when I got a DS, I didn't have access to get online; So I'm enjoying being part of a community (even if I've found I BLOW in battles! Though my passion has always been collecting and raising over the combat, usually)
Some of my other interests: I love MST3K and Rifftrax, 80's cartoons (especially He-man), "bad" movies, comedy podcasts, and am a wrestling geek.I spent most of the 90's and early 2000's as a hardcore anime fan, but that died down mostly due to money issues (my prime was in the days of $30 3 episode VHS tapes from Media Play... kids today with their torrents and streaming video ) and find myself lost among a sea of titles I don't know, though I'm always open to new series (a couple of the newest series I've seen and loved at Attack on Titan and Panty and Stocking).
Feel free to add my Friend code.
