Hi there,

Well, what to say? I started playing pokémon back when Red and Blue were released, and played those a lot until Gold and Silver came out - until my Silver version got nicked and that discouraged me and I stopped playing. I picked pokémon up again when Diamond and Pearl were released, and then moved onto HeartGold when HG and SS were released in the UK. I generally play the games quite slowly because I spend a lot of time looking for specific pokémon, not satisfied with just waiting until I stumble upon it by mere chance. My latest achievement is catching a shiny Absol on Platinum this afternoon, which I thought was pretty cool.

About my nickname - my passion outside of computer games is languages, and I know a fair few pretty well - and when I finish my Russian degree I will use Pokémon and various other games etc to learn Japanese!

Ты говоришь по-русски? Я начал учить русский язык года четыре тому назад :]

Thank you for the welcome. If you wanted to learn some I'd be happy to help you with it or recommend books or so.

I'd love to, but I don't have the time to do so :( one day though, one day.
 
Okay, well, when you get around to it, feel free to PM me if you want any help or so. And спасибо (thank you) for the welcome, yet again =]
 
Your username makes me think of Spongebob lol!
Hey welcome to the forums and have lots of fun here!! :D
 
Welcome to the forums! Have fun and enjoy.
Grats on the Absol, and GL with your language studying.

Thanks.
 
Приветствовать!

Nice catch, I have a shiny Absol as well. If I remember correctly they are red coloured which is pretty neat.

It's great to see a fan from the original Red and Blue days, but it really is too bad that you missed out on the Generation III games as they were great.

I am going to try and learn some Japanese as well because it would be very useful for the foreign games and anime that I play that is in Japanese. I hope it isn't too hard to learn.

Thanks, and enjoy your time here.
