From Bulbapedia, the community-driven Pokémon encyclopedia.
I began my page with a bunch of usertags. As if I wasn't enough of a nerd already.
A few things: Yes, I am eighteen. Yes, that is too old for Pokémon (at least, in my opinion). At any rate, my brother's the real Pokémaniac. I usually just play the games to help him get version-exclusive Pokémon (from Sapphire or rarer ones like Manaphy (from Ranger), as well as Silver for the nostalgia value. I liked Pokémon back then.
I don't like to use legendary, glitch, or cheat-obtained Pokémon because it's just not realistic. I mean, if we were all actual trainers stumbling around the Pokémon world, there would only be one of each legendary, and nobody would have ever even heard of Missingno or other glitches. It just wouldn't make sense for every trainer you run across to be packing a Cresselia when there's only one in existence. Of course, this is another thing where everyone has their own opinion, and I have to respect that.
Pokémon Gold and Silver Versions were the pinnacle of the series, as far as I'm concerned. Sure, the RPG elements were boosted in later generations by natures, abilities, the split between special and physical moves, and the like. But as far as storytelling, characters, and actual fun go, GS has all other generations topped. I'm holding out for a GS remake before I get back into the series.
I have a Bulbapedia account in the first place mostly because I can't make any edits without it. This wiki is one of the best-maintained I've ever seen, but it still needs some help, and I'm here to provide it wherever I can.
