General Introduce yourself!

Hello guys I am shellfish,Shell for short :D
I love pokemon and I've been playing them for quite a while but I am still an average trainer ^^ (So exuse me if I will--sometimes*cough*always--bug you for strategy and team building help XD).I love playing pokemon and I can say that I found smogon through Pokemon showdown which I found from youtube not long ago :D so I decided to join you guys and meet all of these amazing poke-fans from different parts of our word 8D

So If I could introduce myself,I could say I am jolly natured,since I love laughing (and I do that all the time XD),I am silly and a bit of a clueless childish weirdo XD but I am cheerful and I love making people smiling and laughing 8D I don't like it when people are sad -Yah I love comedies XD - and I have an obssesion with water 8D love water and everything that has to do with it,I love summer because of the bright mornings.I love every kind of pokemon although I have a soft spot for current ones like Lugia (when I was 4 years old -- when I saw the movie I wanted lugia to be my pet-bud for ever XD I am surprised that I didn't call my cat lugia XD) and for a weird reason I love the enegertic mood of Jolteons when they want to show you how they adore you,they usually thundershock you o.o Shocking right? -electric type pokejoke hahahaha not funny sorry XD

Nice to meet you 8D ~(oDo)~

Hello and welcome to Smogon Shellfish! If you need anything, than you can ask me, chester0334, Fluke, or QueBien :D
 
Hi I'm Taxo, 20y/o, college student: fundamental mathematics.
Been playing pokemon since Yellow, and played pretty much every generation since (bar black2/white2)
Do play throughout the year, but seem to pour in most of my hours during exams.
Thinking about actually starting to breed for and play competitively, but it does take up a lot of time.
Anyway, forum people seem to be generally nice, so keep up the fun smogon :)
You can ask me anything you want; here, on my profile or in PM

What's up Taxo, welcome to Smogon. I've also been playing. Got Gold afterwards, which is my all time favorite. If you have any questions for now, you should definitely check out the Have a Question? Ask it here! thread. Or just PM me about them. Maybe we can even battle arrange a battle or two while we're at it ò_ó/

But most importantly, make sure to have a good time around here. See you around!

I got Silver next :D
soulsilver is my all time favorite, because the GS games where awesome and I like updated graphics :3
I'll be sure to ask if I get stuck on something, thanks a lot.
Won't be battling until I get around building something competitive in gen VI though. If I finally do manage to squeeze in the time for it, I'll definitely arrange one with you :)

Hello everyone. I've been tracking competitive pokemon on youtube and twitch for quite a while, also played a bit on showdown. About two weeks ago I decided to get myself a 3ds and OR, and here I am, risking failing finals not really because of geting too involved with Pokemon :P

Hello Elavion and welcome to Smogon! This is a great place to actually get involved in Competitive Battling, while Pokémon Showdown is the place where most of your battling would be, unless you play VGC and go to PCs. Also, I would like to know what tiers you are interested in, and if you have any questions, than you can go to the "Simple Questions, Simple Answers" thread, or ask me, Fluke, chester0334, or QueBien.
 
Hello Smoggers! Smogonies? Smogonites? Whatever...
Anyways, my name is PhoenixOrder (Phoenix or PO is fine) and I'm 18 in the United States. I've actually been on Showdown for a while and did one forum post a few years ago, but I'm looking to get a bit more into the community! I like Pokemon (XD and Colosseum are the best) but I also enjoy League of Legends and a good strategy board game once in a while.

Hello PhoenixOrder!
I think it's Smogonites, but who knows? :s How are you doing? I had this account for a few months before I actually started posting; I had created it around the same time I was introduced to Showdown. Where would you like to start getting involved? We have a bunch of areas you could explore: the tiers, media, and more! My favorite game is Emerald, but I also like the sixth generation games and the other third generation games. I play a lot of other videogames like Halo and Battlefield, and I'm always eager to start new ones. I used to play chess, but I don't really anymore. Have a good time here at the site!

Thanks for the welcome QueBien!
I'm doing quite well and have plenty of time on my hands now that summer has come 'round. The first thing I've done on the forums here is to post my LC team (Thread), but anything else you'd like to recommend would be awesome. Emerald was actually the first Pokemon game I ever owned so it has to be my third favorite. I'm in the same boat as you with chess... Thanks again!
 
Hello. My name is Pkmn Snowflake Yellow, but just call me Yellow for short. I actually started competitively battling in 4th generation but did not find this site until 5th generation. I like creating unexpected movesets that surprise my opponent in battle, and making friends on the Smogon Server. I loved all the Pokemon Games and hope to see you guys on the forums later!

Hi Pkmn Snowflake Yellow and welcome to Smogon! I also like making surprising move sets, and if you could, i was wondering what tiers you actually like to play? Also, if you have any questions, than you can either go to the "Simple Questions, Simple Answers" thread, or, you could PM Fluke, chester0334, QueBien, or I. To PM somebody, if you don't already know, you press on the persons name, than press Start a Conversation. Have a great time in the community!

Hey Yellow!
Nice to meet you! I only started playing competitively this generation because my friend showed me the site last year. Showdown is what changed my battle skills from terrible to not too terrible, and is also how I found Smogon. I love making creative sets for underrated Pokemon and enjoy playing against other creative players, but when I try to build a better team I will use some of the more common movesets. If I had to say what got me hooked to Showdown and Smogon, it'd have to be my friends here. If you need help with something here, feel free to ask me, Fluke, chester0334, or TheHoodedGamer any questions you may have. You can also use the Help form or the SQSA threads. I hope you have fun here!

This channel is dedicated to Pokemon related content! I do occasionally make videos on other things but generally speaking, this channel is a Pokemon channel! :]

https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCd9FpRgodQD47ZYFy2e7K3w

I do all sorts of videos, things such as:
- Pokemon reviews
- Rate My teams
- Pokemon Tributes
- Hot Topics
- Top 5's
- Shout Outs
I also take requests 24/7!

There will be more things introduced as the channel grows!

If I get to 250 people subscribed, I will do the cinnamon challenge! :]
 
Hi guys, I'm Wally The Bully , a sixteen year old french boy. I'm in smogon (but almost in showdown) since two or three months because some people urge me to discover this great community. I'm a nintendo proplayer with more than 4000 matchs.

My 'goals' in smogon forums and more precisely showdown are:

-Having good times with members. I discovered some great payers, a great staff and that's why I have a GREAT impression of this community.

-Participate to the Smogon Tour but before all I have to climb some ladders (OU oras, ou DPP, ou BW). I peaked sometimes #1 in the OU ladder and i'm now already in the top #10. I've also done two oususpecttests(Aegi & Lando.i) with more than 90 of GXE, which is probably good.


I would also like to thank some people.

So, thanks to the OverUsed community of smogon, but also the showdown Help room staff.

Also thanks to the
French staff members and the French players.

To finish with, i'm very happy to discover each day a little bit more of this famous part of the Pokémon world. :)
 
Hello everyone! Although I've had this account awhile, I never actually used it until recently. I've played all through 3rd gen, completely missed 4th and 5th and returned back to the game for 6th and was not disappointed! I'm a decent battler, I actually came to this forum again for some advice. Although I can deal with most threats, there are two pokemon in particular I kinda need help dealing with, I feel like I have the tools to, but just don't handle it the best.

The standard wish/protect umbreon with toxic, and the toxic spikes leftovers drapion. These two tend to wall a lot of my pokemon and the toxic spikes poison a lot of my team xD, I'll try to get something for drapion, but since he is faster he will usually just use roar and poison something else. What pokemon are usually the best for dealing with these two?

Hi MegaMasher!
You like to make Pokemon videos, huh? Have you considered contributing to Smogon that way? You can be a great help by doing so as well as make friends with other media contributors. As for the cinnamon challenge...well, I'd highly advise against doing that. :p It poses many health dangers, and we wouldn't want any user to get hurt. D: Anyway, I'm sure you'll find some area here at Smogon you'd like to get involved in. I hope you enjoy your time here at the forums!

Hello Wally The French...er, Bully!
Yep, I also was introduced to PS! through a friend, and I'm really grateful for that. I've met a lot of awesome people here, and I can guarantee you'll make some good friends on the site! :) I'm glad you have a good impression of Smogon, as I do, too; it's a friendly place and we have a lot of interesting areas of involvement here. Good luck with the Smogon Tour, and have fun around here!
I would also like to say I am very much happy so far with my experiences with Smogon! :]
Great you feel that way! :)

Hey joltitect!
Ah, 3rd Gen. My first and my favorite. I also jumped to 6th, then went back and played the two in between, although I've yet to play the original two. Have you thought about creating Rate My Teams? You can have your team improved by other users on the site and that would help a lot with bettering your battle skills! According to the Smog Dex, the counters for Umbreon are Fighting Types, Taunt or Trick users, and Bulky Setup sweepers. As for Drapion, its counters are Ground types, Wallbreakers, Dark-type resisters, Status (and Status absorbers), and faster Pokemon. Check out the Dex pages for each for more information. If you have any other questions, check out the SQSA threads or PM me, Fluke, TheHoodedGamer, or chester0334. Have a great time here!

Thank you for the reply fren :] I definitely would love to contribute to Smogon as well with videos. I want my videos to target a varied audience for Pokemon players (being casual, new, pros, competitive, etc.)

I have done the cinnamon challenge before but that was years ago XD
