| <big><big>History as a Pokémon Fan</big></big>

----

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;I started out watching the [[Pokémon anime]] at a very young age, and I loved it. I believe I started watching the anime around the end of the [[original series]], as I have a faint memory of {{color2|{{water color}}|Misty (anime)|Misty}} traveling with {{color2|{{electric color}}|Ash Ketchum|Ash}}. My favorite [[series]] was the {{series|Advanced Generation}}. I loved {{color2|{{electric color}}|Ash Ketchum|the}} {{color2|{{ruby color}}|May (anime)|group}} {{color2|{{rock color}}|Brock (anime)|of}} {{color2|{{emerald color}}|Max|four}}. I stopped watching the anime after [[Pokémon: Battle Frontier|the ninth season]] started, because {{tt|I didn't have|I have it now, though.}} [[Cartoon Network]] on my TV. My days as a Pokémon fan seemed to be over.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;Then came one day in late August 2010, when I was extremely bored and had nothing to do. Now when I'm bored, amazing things happen. I ended up watching some of the first Pokémon episodes and my love for Pokémon was revived. I started doing a whole bunch of research on Pokémon. I found out that there were [[Pokémon games|{{tt|Pokémon games|Yes, I didn't know that. Shh.}}]]. In the course of about a month, I had watched [[List of anime episodes|every single episode]] that had aired, including [[Banned episodes|the banned ones]]. Nowadays I'm still watching the anime and I'm playing the games as well.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;While I watched the old Pokémon episodes, my sister discovered {{color2|{{bulba color}}|Bulbapedia}}. I used the website for Pokémon information. I lurked Bulbapedia for a while, before joining on October 23, 2010. At first, I didn't understand how to edit. I knew nothing about {{bp|wikicode}}! I learned over time by reading '''everything''' in the {{cat|Bulbapedia policies}}. About {{tt|two months|December 25, 2010}} after joining, I made <span class="plainlinks">[http://bulbapedia.bulbagarden.net/w/index.php?title=Game_Freak&diff=prev&oldid=1293549 my first edit]</span>. I started to become much more active in February 2011. On March 5, 2011, I became a temporary {{bp|Junior Administrators|Junior Administrator}} to help out with {{game|Black and White|s|{{color|{{black color}}|Black}} and {{color|{{white color}}|White}}}}, but on April 30, 2011, I was officially made a member of the {{bp|staff}}. Then on December 14, 2011, I was promoted to an {{bp|Administrators|Administrator}} rank. I'm also a Senior Administrator over on the {{color2|{{steel color}}|Bulbagarden Archives}}. If you have any questions, feel free to {{DL|User:Carmenstar97|contact}} me.
