The New Member Introduction Thread

[Linkachu]

Take two.

Here you can post an introduction and tell us a bit about yourself: what brought you to Pokecharms, your hobbies, and any other details you feel like sharing. By no means are new members required to post here, but it's available for those who want it.

In return, we ask that all introductory posts go here. Please don't start a brand new topic just to say hi (it will be treated as SPAM). Thanks.

Im not really what you call "NEW" but I always post in these just so people
can well know me.

My Favorite Pokemon is Chiramii "Hope I spelled it right"
I also am a sucker for Trainer Sprites If their is a Sprite Request form with
Trainers as requests you would probably find me there often. Which what
brought me here I like to test some Peoples Potential on well their abilities
to Recolor,Scratch,Splice,& Morph a sprite to something new.

my fave pokemon is lucario and arcanine is good too
i dont approve of shiny pokemon
i really hate relicanth
i spend alot of time listening to songs on youtube
i think that most ledgendaries (discluding rayquaza and mewtwo) are a waste of pokeballs
if i only had 1 master ball i would catch a riolu
i like japenese songs like starry heavens

Hi guys im new and i was wandering what was your first pokemon? or what are your shiny pokemon?                                                                                  My first was shiny gyardous then a shiny sandslahs and my shiny eevee from a pokemon event (lol)

Hi, I used to use this site for the trainer cards a while back, for my Diamond version (wow, I was only 12 then), and now am back to post on the forums. I recently rediscovered the site, just to see how the trainer card generator was doing, but it was down D: I lurked a bit on the forums, and it seems like a really nice community, but... now the entire site and forums were broken. I waited again, and finally joined it today. Hope I'll have fun on here.

Oh, and you might know me from GTS/GPX+, another Pokemon community, under the username MisterGrieves.

I'm certainly not new to Pokecharms (Two years this August, I think? I don't know. xD), but I don't think I ever really posted in this thing, and why not give people the chance to know a bit more about me, right?

My favorite color is green. Orange, blue, and white are all tied for second place. A kind of golden-yellow is also quickly growing on me. I like photography, and I like to think I'm pretty good at it, too. I also write sometimes.
For awhile, my favorite Pokemon was Aipom, but that doesn't really hold true anymore. I think now, if anything, it's Skarmory, or Espeon. Neither really for battle purposes, but for the fact that I really like the design and whatnot.

I feel like this was a kinda long introductory, but heck, might as well do it right, yeah? xD

I don't believe I did either, Cody XD

Name's Shocari, after my Electric/Dark wolf fakemon, and I am addicted to Pokemon.

>>

This isn't a Pokemon Addicts Anonymous Group? jk

You can find me lurking on all the boards, but usually General Art(my sprite thread :<) and my(I think to Carmen's delight now that they're gone, but I could be wrong) multiple fics that I never finish. But now, with the way things are at the moment, I shall only do one fic at a time   Trust me on it. I solemenly swear that I am up to no good....MISCHIEF MANAGED.

[Linkachu]

Name's Shocari, after my Electric/Dark wolf fakemon...

I can't believe I never knew this until now... That's actually pretty cool. It's a nifty name. :O

*Is considering posting a short bio introduction now, too... Will be doing it later when she has more focus~*

Yeah, anyone can post an introduction here - even the members who've been here for years. Never hurts to tell newer people a bit more about yourself.

... yeah, Shiny here. Been a regular at 'Charms since waaaaaay back in 2007 (just celebrated my 3rd year annivesary two days ago, in fact). I've seen this site change so many times; the original clovery layout with the Pokecharms emblem tiled all over the back, to something a little different (with an Ivysaur hiding behind tall grass when you scroll all the way to the bottom), to this, just to name some of the layouts. And that's only the physical appearance. Because I've been here so long, I've seen the flow of regulars as time passed. First (meaning when I first joined) were a few n00bish spriters, along with some GOOD spriters and other notable members not in the spriters category like Carmen, Rey, and Zacky here. Then some people (or most people) were banned, or just left on their own accord, and in come others for 2008. 2009 brought new regulars, and now we have people like Tunduli and others who's name escapes me for now XD. Talking about the past makes me feel old, even though I tend to consider myself as one of the younger (age-wise) regulars, so let's go on to something else.

Some of you newer peoples might not know me as well as I would like to because I tend to hide in the shadows a bit now, watching 'Charms grow and prosper. I used to be a spriter 'round these parts, and yes I was part of the n00bish spriters I mentioned in the last paragraph. Actually, I think I might be the only one left of that bunch who's still alive |D

ANYWAYS

Came to 'Charms by a bit of wandering around the interwebs. After regaining interest in Pokemon, I decided to go and find meself a Pokemon website to "live" in, for updates and stuffs. So I ended up here, and yes this place was my first forum evah. And I tend to call this place "home" or something because I treat it as such (heck, I even have a "family" here, with Sem as my daddy and Jen as my sister and Karu as my brother and oh my gosh don't even get me started on the OTHER part of the family tree...)

So yeah, long intro is loooooooong. Point being, everyone calls me Shiny, I'm a regular since 2007, and beware of my lazer-fan. :3

My fav. Pokemon Is Bayleaf ( I also like ryhorn, absol, scyther, And lucario)
In POkemon Leaf green i chose Charmander
In Pokemon Emerald i chose torchic
In pokemon gold i chose chikorita
I dont like any of the pokemon from generation IV besides luxxray and lucario.
Im a bit of a nerd, I wonder when pokemon trainer go to school. I love Kingdom hearts,
My favorite Elite four member is drake. And i love all dragon pokemon

Well, I just started today. I basically stay inside all day on the computer or on the DS, while other times
I am at a baseball game or practice. The rest of my public stuff about me is on my page ( PLEASE send me a message!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!)

I'm not exactly what you'd call new, but I've been here awhile. I witnesed the server change, and now I'm back. Why am I in this thread? Well, I want people to get to know me before they decide that I'm completely insane. Anyway, you can find my name mostly on the art threads, requesting sprites, sigs, etc... I'm thinking about going into the splicing business with an old friend of mine. But don't get your hopes up, it may never happen. I came to 'Charms looking for a trainer card, but I also found bliss. 'Charms is now my favorite place to post, and basically the ONLY place I post on forums. I love Lucario and Raichu, as well as Darkrai and Cresselia. There are many more of my favorites, but listing them all would be like saying I like all 493 Pokemon. I'm a writer of fiction, so you may see a fiction thread with my name on it soon. Maybe. I'm also a Pokemon addict, an archer, a texter, and an architect. Yet, I still don't know how to post pictures! I'm ADHD, I'm smart, and I'm a musician. That's pretty much all you need to know about me, so peace out 'Charmers.

HAI GAIS IM NEW

I've known Linkachu and StellarWind since like, 2000 and 2001. I think I joined Pokecharms back when Katie and Gad first joined it, but got bored and fell out of pokemon fandom. Now I'm unemployed and bored and this place has news, so HERRO.

[Linkachu]

I likes Nintendo and videogames.
If you like Final Fantasy, you'll be in my bad books.
Just putting that out there now, cause everyone on the site totally wants to talk to me.

Just kidding, not actually being a douche on purpose.

Possibly a good idea if I post here (though it could come back and bite me D: ).

My name's Tatile, and for some reason I have a reputation around here for being good at writing - couldn't tell you why, as I've only ever finished two stories and they've both since been lost in the server transfer*. In my heyday I used to trawl the General Fiction boards giving out advice where it was warranted and trying to be helpful.

I'm a bit of a perv. I'm also pretty open minded - perhaps even disturbingly so. But let's be honest, who doesn't want to be mentally disturbed by a young, blonde English woman over the internet?

I don't actually play Pokemon very often, but I do like the concept of the world; in particular, Sem's version of it is one of my favourites. Carmen's is a close second, sometimes I think perhaps they might all intertwine in a finely designed mesh. Then Psycho comes along with his and goes all, well... him.

So yes, if you see me posting a crtique of your writing (should you ever post any) don't be offended, it's a mild compulsion I have. No, really, it is.

*I can find them somewhere, possibly, maybe... can't remember which computer they're on. Probably best not to XD

Hey, y'all. I'm Secad.

I've been a member of the forum for two years, though that got reset because of the server issues. I'm well known for my poetry, specifically 'The Fray' and my haiku about the short skirts of the player characters, as well as a couple of fics that often get affected by computer issues, writer's block, and just time issues. I am also a member of the non-mod 1000+ club, having 1128 posts before the crash.

I can be very naive at times, always thinking of the innocent thing first, taking a couple seconds for the real meaning to settle in. That happens with figurative language as well. I'm a very literal person.

As for gerbils, I love zem. I want to become a rodentologist, someone who studies rodents. Fi is part of my 'Charms persona here, a pyrokinetic red-eye-white female gerbil I can 'merge' with.

As for Pokemon, I've liked them and known about them since G/S. However, my parents revoked permission for me to get them, as after I watched the first two movies, I grew extremely obsessed with them. Only recently have I gotten the games. I currently play a friend's LeafGreen for her, I have a dead Diamond that erased itself of 500 hours of play time, a Platinum, and a Soul Silver. I luffles them.

I am also very intelligent, as I am close to my first Bachelor degree (got to get those gen eds out of the way, lol), as well as generally just getting stuff. I am not a flippant airhead, just a somewhat hyperactive female that loves to learn.

2009 brought new regulars, and now we have people like Tunduli and others who's name escapes me for now XD.

Holy jekqjenwqKQK, Shiny, you said my name :'0

Anyways, yes, I'm Tunduli/Tun/Tunni/Tunny/Tundy/Tun-San/Elise/et cetera. :>
I like to sprite, draw, write, sing, play ukulele, watch TV, play PokeMon ... all the basics, I guess. :b I joined here in May (I think?) 2009 (as Shiny stated earlier) and then went on a reeeeeeaaaally long break, coming back in January. And now people talk to me. :V

I OVERRUSE SMILIES, YO.

I've made some pretty good friends here (you know who you are <3) and my claim-to-semi-fame is 'The PokePlush'. Eheheheh.

Like pretty much no one knows my exact age (Petey knows around there, same with Tan 'nd some other peple) and I enjoy keeping it that way. :U

Uhhh ... yeah, my Dad's telling me to get off my netbook, so I guess I must~

MY NAME WAS MENTIONED THEREFORE I AM OBLIGED TO POST

I also have a personal vendetta agaionst the word epic. Epic this, epic that, Epic Mickey, Epic Yarn, just just...find another word! I hear it like everyday too because daddy enjoys it
I like to think I'm friends with my friends, like Jen or Zacky or Kal or(YEAH I MEAN YOU GUYS HAH I SAID YOUR NAME NOW YOU WILL FEEL LIKE YOU MUST POST-) other people <3 I tend to read like everything on the forums, but I almost never comment because it's usually done on my iPhone, and I can't text for my liiiiiife :<

Um um, yes! This is Tangrow~!

...Although I'm not new. Not like that stopped all the other people anyway <3 Drop me a PM if you enjoy unicorns, rainbows, or cats. Yesyes~

I'm 19 years of age and live in a small (no really, it's TINY) country called Belgium.

I love to play pokémon (obviously), I currently play Pearl (going for full pokédex of pokémon in the deposit boxes), and Saphire o get the regis, Wanna go get Regigigas in Pearl.
I also like to Photoshop, watch movies, play other games on one of my consoles and watch movies.

Well if there's anything more you guys would like to know, just ask me, oh and if anybody is looking for a feebas or spiritomb, i got LOADS by trying to breed a shiny, but gave up after having 2 boxes of eggs, got really boring.

kthxbai^^

::EDIT::
I've been here while the old site was still up, bot not really active on the forums.
Spent most of the times in the chat, where somebody (I forgot who for a sec, my apologies for that, i think the name was Tangrowth) made it possible to evolve my clamperl into a Gorebyss, trough trade.

Now I'm going to be more active on the forums for sure, I love the art segment!

Not a new member in any sense of the word XD

I joined Pokecharms in March of 2007 so I've been here for three years now. Two of my favorite Pokemon are Lucario and Jumpluff <3 I started writing fanfiction about a year into my membership here and I have three rather offbeat fics. I'm in the process of reposting all of them. The Chronicles of Giselle Valentine is already there while Moving On and then Veilstone Diaries will follow. Hurr, I suck at describing myself so if you ever want to know more about me (<.<) you can find me in chat. So...bye!
