Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.

welcome to every single time I do sports, although this isn't much of a habit now is it?
also, what people here have described, I have this too: dermatophagia, biting the skin on my fingers, excessively, even moreso during stressful times
so it's much more fast paced? must admit that is appealing in a way, fast battles, gen III (as I recall the best since it was -my- generation :3) was all about prediction, sometimes I overpredicted and lost matches by giving opponents too much credit :x
gen I had like 10 OU pokemon, gen II was pure stalemate material (iirc), gen III had the most balanced gameplay I remember, gen IV was "you die, I die, you die, I die..." what's gen V like? Summarily
