About me
Name's Blueman. Why? I'm a guy and like the color Blue :P. Ironically, the only blue Pokémon game I actually own is Sapphire. Weird.
My full name is Patrick Kiproff. I was born on December 12th, 1993 in Ontario, Canada. I've been a fan of Pokémon since 1998, the years which Red and Blue came out in North America. To be completely honest, The first game I ever played was Alex Kidd in Miracle World. But the first game I can ever recall playing myself was Pokémon Red, and on that Christmas of '98, my Game Boy Pocket and Red were the beginning of a crazy spark which would turn me into somewhat of a fanatic of the series.
I was an avid TV surfer when I was 6 [the age I got Red], and happened to watch the first ever released dubbed episode, Battle Aboard the St. Anne. That single episode made me want to watch the anime of my favorite games [at the time] whenever it aired. Not surprisingly, though, I missed many episodes due to playing my [mostly other] games.
I like anime, generally futuristic and fantasy based ones. I like Pokémon [Obviously, lol], Gundam SEED, Gundam SEED Destiny, Inuyasha, Naruto, GUN X SWORD, ...
And others once I can think of some lol.
I also love gaming outside of Pokémon, mostly Nintendo franchises like Super Smash Bros., Zelda, EarthBound/MOTHER, Star Fox and the Phoenix Wright games.
I also love to read, particularly fantasy and adventure novels such as Kenneth Oppel's Silverwing, Sunwing, and Firewing.
And then I found this wiki ^_^. As I was immersing myself in the Silverwing Wiki, I thought Wait... are there other wikis like this one? and after a little searching, found this ^^. In my opinion this is one of the best and most informative wiki's ever.
Thanks to my interest in the games, the rest is history :).

Pokémon
I have a lot of favorite Pokémon, the list growing larger each generation. My teams are usually diverse in types, but similarities in the teams tend to skimp in the Flying type [Crobat and Gliscor, etc.]. I don't have a single, omnipotent favorite type, but I like Poison, Flying, Psychic, Ice, and Electric.
I don't like Grass and Rock types, mainly because of the sheer number of weaknesses they have. I mean, come on, 5 each! And I don't really like the Dark type too. Nothing against it, just mainly because it's the "weakest" type (its strongest move has the least amount of power among all type supermoves) gets a full immunity against Psychic and Ghost. How exactly does that work? Ah never mind.

As for legendaries, I'm not too fond of using them due to them having superior power. Having said that...
Pokémon I dislike
Sure, I may like a lot, but dislike some too. Nobody can perfectly say that they like every single Pokémon, right? =P
- Squirtle - Least favorite Kanto starter. 'Nuff said.
- Parasect - Terrible type combination/bad stats = urrrg
- Geodude evolutionary line - [See above save for defense lol]
- Exeggcute - Shouldn't it only be one Pokémon? How exactly can it be 6 at once? coughsevenweaknessescough
- Lickitung - ...? Dopey and weird...
- Magikarp - Ahhh the [near] useless one... just be sure not to be close when it evolves, lol. I love the meme made by Magikarp; I swear to God when I evolve I'm going to kill you all. Which rings true, its evolution is amazing :).
- Jumpluff - Oddly, I like Hoppip and Skiploom but not its final form. Must be the name...
- Unown - ONLY ONE MOVE??!? Pretty good stats though. I just don't have the kinda determination to find all 28 -_-.
- Dunsparce - What the heck is it even supposed to be, anyway? Below average stats don't help either...
- Treecko evolutionary line - As I said before, I'm not too fond of Grass types. 'Specially this one. Not to mention its the mortal enemy of Swampert *_*.
- Slaking - Its funny, this one being the strongest non-legendary ever. Too bad its ability is more then annoying. At least it can be solved, but geez...
- Plusle/Minun - Novelty = fail. Semi - Pikachu clone = more fail.
- Lileep - A Pokémon made up of my least favorite types? Goodness... Terrible Speed.
- Torterra - I love dubious honors; this one has the lowest speed of all starter final forms. Plus it looks like its going to eat somebody... *coughgrasstypecough*
- Stunky/Skuntank - First form: Facepalm-inducing name. Second form: Platinum sprite... *shudders*
- Snover/Abomasnow - WORST TYPE EVER! Seven weaknesses! But it has the Ice type... curses...
- Lickilicky - Buffing up Lickitung by making it look like a pink version of Barney with a long tongue... no.
- Probopass - And I thought Nosepass was weird... It looks like Mario made into a compass XD
Legendaries
- Raikou - Never really appealed to me, I guess. Suicune FTW :p
- Registeel - Least fav of the Regis. Haha, Diamond and Pearl Sprite :P
Thank goodness for this wiki and its National Dex list ^_^
