Hey DougJustDoug.
I'm not sure that this is going to the right person, and if not, could you re-direct me please?
I am a large Smogon user, and am currently writing a college paper on Pokemon. My topic is thus. Should Nintendo continue the Pokemon series? It is an argumentative paper, and I was pondering a question or two. First and foremost, can I use Smogon as a source for my paper? It's okay with my professor. My reason for asking is that I don't know who "owns" Smogon, and I don't know if they would have a problem with me using Smogon as a source.
Secondly, I am not relatively "new" to competitive battling; I've been at it sporadically since the end of DPP, but I am by no means good. Do you know a good competitive battler or two I could chat with about this topic, and what it means for competitive battlers?
Thank you for your time and effort.
