Just like everyone else here, I enjoyed Pokémon when I was younger (elementary school). I had Red, Yellow, Gold, Crystal, and Sapphire growing up and I watched the original anime that aired before the movie. Interest waned after Sapphire and I didn't return to Pokémon until snagging a copy of Red for $2.
Then, when a suitemate of mine (yup, college student) found PokéMMO, he, a mutual friend, and I hopped on board. We've already dumped about fifty hours into the game in about a week. I figured since I've been enjoying the game so much I thought I'd jump on the forums.
My typical party is (in no particular order): [list]
[*]Blastoise: Level 51 or Gyrarados: Level 57
[*]Charizard: Level 58
[*]Dragonite: Level 55
[*]Gengar: Level 62
[*]Raichu: Level 60
[*]Tyranitar: Level 63
[/list]
Definitely nothing impressive. I remember loving Gengar when I was younger. I used to have a plush Gengar and plan on eBaying one soon. I also loved Togepi and had a plush of it as well. I know there is not one in the game now, will it be implemented?
From what I understand, this game is only in its beta version? If so, impressive work so far. Will other regions be implemented? I guess in general I'm curious of what direction the developers plan on taking the MMO. I also find it pretty interesting they use the games ROMs, I guess to pull information out of. I imagine this will become pretty popular and will eventually need more unique features added to it. Sorry if I'm asking redundant questions, I haven't browsed the forum yet and haven't talked much in-game; just been playing.
Other interests include: retro gaming (mainly the NES), metal (all genres, I prefer Finnish metal for the most part), and programming (what I'm studying in college).
Well, I guess that's enough for an introduction post... My in-game name is Nightowljrm as well.
