I got my Red version in October 1998, and I was hooked. I followed that up with 2 main handheld versions in each generation (3 counting FireRed, 4 counting HeartGold/SoulSilver), and quite a few side games as well. In my opinion, each generation gets better and better. Better graphics, longer storyline, and yes, an extra 100-or-so beasts to track down. Call it tedious, call a few species uninspired, but I enjoy it. I also played the TCG for a few years. I will always love the games, and am in the process of watching a bunch of anime episodes and movies that I've missed. I've started reading through [[Pokémon Adventures|Pokémon Special]] too, though currently I've only gotten to the Yellow chapter. | ||

I had known about Bulbapedia for a while before finally registering an account on September 17, 2008. I originally registered for the sole purpose of fixing spelling and grammar mistakes that I had found, but soon learned of all the different projects that were around. It seemed that almost everything was taken care of, except for [[Bulbapedia:Project Walkthroughs|Project Walkthroughs]]. The place was pretty dead when I first found it, so I've sort of made it my mission to see it completed. I started off by building on the Red & Blue walkthrough last summer, picking up after the first page or two where the last person had left off. Once that was finished, I started the Gold & Silver walkthrough from scratch, and eventually completed it with little outside input.

The place was pretty dead when I first found it, so I've sort of made it my mission to see it completed. I started off by building on the Red & Blue walkthrough last summer, picking up after the first page or two where the last person had left off. Once that was finished, I started the Gold & Silver walkthrough from scratch, and eventually completed it with little outside input. I worked on Yellow after that, then reformatted the FireRed/LeafGreen guide. Like with Gold/Silver, it took me about two months, but I've finally completed the walkthrough for HeartGold/SoulSilver. While I still consider myself a small-time editor, I have finally amassed over 1300 (total) edits. That may not seem like much, but I go for quality, not quantity - <i>isn't that how it's supposed to be anyway?</i> My goal (besides seeing the entire 'Pedia finished one day) is to assist in bringing about complete, comprehensive walkthroughs for every applicable game in the Pokémon series. | ||
