Hello!

As for an introduction, my name is Adeline.
I'm really excited to start becoming a part of these forums, even though I don't really know where to get started, and I'm still a little nervous after thinking about what to say for quite a while.

I really hope that taking steps to joining can lead me to finding new friends and getting to know new people.
I've always told myself that I'm quite an introverted person and I think I've started to become more socially anxious recently.
In fact, I'm the kind of girl who will go to sleep with her headphones on and will wake up to see she's destroyed them moving around in her sleep.
But I think starting here will open the gateway to more people.

To talk a bit about my experiences with Pokemon,
Although I'm only 14, I was introduced to Pokemon when I was 4 by my brother, who owned a copy of Pokemon Emerald. He would always show me his team members and let me read through the strategy guide while he'd play.
I've been playing Pokemon for 8 years, my first game was Pokemon Diamond, and I've played one of every two versions for each generation from 3 to 7.
My favourite main series games are X and Y, and my favourite region is Sinnoh.
My favourite Pokemon is Luxray, but my favourite type is Dark, and my favourite Dark-type Pokemon is Yveltal. My favourite Mega Evolution Pokemon is Mega Mawile.
Earlier this year, I challenged myself to have one of every single type of Pokemon in my PC Boxes in Pokemon X before the release of Sun and Moon. And I completed that challenge a month before.

I really want to thank my friend Seraphy for convincing me to join, I wouldn't be here otherwise.

I've probably gone on for too long, but if there's anything you're curious about, start a conversation with me! I'm going to try to be pretty active on these forums!
 
@Adeline - Don't be so nervous! Your intro was well thought out and detailed~. Welcome to the forums and don't feel bad about being socially introverted - I'm 23 and can honestly admit my school years sucked. I never really made a friend worth calling one. Even post school, I am still an introvert, but being an introvert isn't something to be ashamed of! I am still one and very happy with my life!

If you want to increase your social abilities - Do it for the right reasons and don't do it for the wrong ones. Wanting to fit in is fine, but don't feel the pressure of trying to fit in with people who dislike your attack your hobbies or character. I remember being 14-16 and trying to fit in with the popular crowd. Lol, I realized it was a waste of time!

Enjoy the forums. Good luck on coming out of your shell! You have my support c:

Thanks! I was a little concerned about length, but I think it came out nicely. I don't think it's that I feel bad about being introverted, but that I should try and change things a bit. I feel like I've been dropping down socially currently and just want to meet others.

I currently believe that my reason for doing so is right, but I feel like I'll find the answer to that later. All I have to do is try. I'm thankful for the opportunity of coming into a place where I know I have a common interest with people, and one that's such a huge part of my life.

I'll do my best! I appreciate it!

Good luck Adeline. If you ever want to chat, comment on my wall anytime. Remember, I am 23 so I will hold parts of my personality back, but am willing to discuss anime or give stories on my days as an introvert in school.
 
Welcome to the forums from one introvert to another :D I loved your intro, it was one of the best I have seen :) (funnily enough my older brother introduced me to Pokemon o_O ) anyhow if you ever want to chat, feel free to send me a message :D
 
Hi Adeline, its ok to be nervous, but we have a nice community here :) I really liked your introduction a lot, Im also an introvert myself so I know how it is.

As for where to start we have a ton of sections for various topics. We have the Pokemon Video Games section for talk about the Pokemon games, that might be a good place to start or the Sun/Moon section or if you want a topic outside of Pokemon I might suggest Outside the Box, Fun and Games or Ent Inc.

If you have any questions or need help with anything on the forums feel free to ask me or another moderator.
 
Welcome! Your introduction post was very well-written indeed. I couldn't help but notice the things we have in common: we both like Sinnoh, X/Y, Yveltal, and Mega Mawile.

You'll have a great time here! See you around! :D
