Carmenstar97 joined Bulbapedia on October 22, 2010, after using the website for weeks without joining. She enjoys playing the Pokémon main series games, and believes the spin-off Pokémon games can be quite frustrating to play. When playing the games, she follows the same trend that Ash does in the anime: Electric, Flying, Grass, Fire, Water, and usually (but not always) Ground. At times, she may exclude one or more of the types she typically uses, depending on the Pokémon available in the game.

History as a Pokémon Fan

I don't quite remember my early days as a Pokémon fan, as I was very young. I started out watching the anime, and I loved it. I believe I started watching the anime around the end of the original series, as I have a faint memory of Misty traveling with Ash. I do remember May traveling with Ash Some of the episodes I remember watching are In the Knicker of Time!, Tree's a Crowd, Taming of the Shroomish, You Said a Mouthful!, and Sharpedo Attack!. I stopped watching the anime after the ninth season started, because I didn't have Cartoon Network. My days as a Pokémon fan were pretty much over.

Then came one day in late August 2010, when I had nothing to do. So what did I end up doing? I watched some of the first Pokémon episodes! I never would've guessed that I was soon to become a huge fan of Pokémon. And so, I wound up becoming one. I became so obsessed with it, that I did a whole bunch of research on it. I found out that there was Pokémon games, and surprisingly, I had never known about the games. In the course of about a month, I had watched every single episode that had aired, including the banned ones.

I wanted to learn more. I played Pokémon Crystal, my first Pokémon game. I loved playing the game. The only thing that upset me was the feeling that the game was shouting at me, with Caps Lock seemingly turned on permanently. I then took a step back, playing Pokémon Yellow. I loved walking around with Pikachu, and I liked having all of the starter Pokémon given to you. Soon after that, I played Pokémon Emerald. I only focused on two of my Pokémon, (Blaziken and Altaria), and I regret doing that, as I barely beat the Elite Four (I had to rely on Rayquaza to help me). I plan on replaying through Emerald with a balanced team. I then played Pokémon Platinum, and I have dedicated the most time on this game (300+ hours). I felt the most satisfied with this game, and I loved my team. After giving up on my Platinum game, I played Pokémon White. I really enjoy this game. The seasons are a nice addition. The only problem I have with this game is that I can't get Reshiram without trading. I will buy the English version of Pokémon White when it comes out.

History on Bulbapedia

While I watched the old episodes of Pokémon, my sister found Bulbapedia. She suggested I use the website to find some information on Pokémon. When I saw the website, I was confused at first. The first thing I saw was the countdown to the release of Pokémon Black and White. I didn't understand what the point of a countdown to a "random day" was. I used the website for anime purposes, and I loved how organized it was! There were specific colors for each specific type, and I especially loved how the top portion of each page had a little green, green being my favorite color. I lurked Bulbapedia for a while before joining. About 2 months after joining, I made my first edit, on December 25, 2010. Every now and then I edit pages, although they are usually minor edits. I am still getting to know my way around Bulbapedia. I still don't know how to redirect and move pages, but I'll find that out eventually. I enjoy helping out on Bulbapedia, and I hope for Bulbapedia to be more complete!
