in general...
my name is michael, im 19 years old and have just celebrated my one year wedding anniversary, and am about to become a father. i live in hawaii where i work as a fire protection sprinkler installer, and have been here for about 7 months...
i graduated class of `07, where i took several classes in the arts department, which is mainly how i ended up here... i took three classes on graphic design, one of which was not even offered by the school, but was rather concocted by a few classmates, our teacher and our counselor.
in regards to pokemon...
im pretty sure i stumbled upon pokemon the same way many of you here have... it was the fad in sixth grade that i was pier-pressured into joining up in (i believe my first two cards were weedle and a grass energy) and it pretty much took off from there, for a couple months where i dropped the fad in my attempt to be cooler as i moved on up to jr. high. ive doodled different things all my life.. not being able to accurately draw something in this world has discouraged me into discovering my talent of creating things from my own world. so as it would seem, ive been drawing pokemon all my life since anything that ive created can easily be tweaked to fit into the ever-growing pokemon universe. though i quickly became very discouraged with pokemon when i saw such things as nosepass and luvdisc... two useless-looking pokemon with uncreative names.
in regards to these forums...
my sign in name PCZPhyre is a just a ramble of some stupid things that ive come across over the years... PCZ is simply 'peace easy' spelt out in letters, and Phyre is a 10th grade biology experiment in which a friend and i decided to purposely spell words wrong. this word has stuck with me, since im infatuated with fire, and has followed me into my online gaming experience, in which i play CS:CZ as =]WCH[=PhYrE
arriving here was a result of my curiosity to keep up on pokemon. ever since i had dropped the fad i still checked in to see what new things the creators had cooked up... seeing as how i enjoy creating my own creatures it only made sense. i was simply looking up fan-made pokemon to see where else i could draw inspiration from. this site seemed more legitimate than a starcraft2 forum i joined for the same reasons (creating something for the game) which was run by a bunch of twelve year olds with a futuristic fetish.
on the unfortunate side, ive read through the submitting pokemon guidelines and i dont come here to submit my ideas in such a way. rather, i just draw what comes to my mind, give them (a) type(s), name them if i can and id like to give them away to the community here to create stats and background information. i never followed pokemon for the sake of finding match ups and researching stats. i only ever followed up for the sake of creating something truly pokemonistic.
but dang it all i thought id have been super cool if i created the rest of the eevee evolutions... but you suckers banned it...
anyway, thanks for reading, and sorry for the long introduction, im infamous for unnecessarily long posts, but hey, at least i get most of my topic covered
