Welcome all to our new site! We are glad to have you here. As a matter of fact, we are so glad you're here that we'd love to meet you. Post your own introduction thread and become apart of our upcoming community or say goodbye if you plan on leaving. If going on an extended hiatus, feel free to post in your introduction post. Think of it as a little status update for users. Don't hesitate to tell us a little about yourself! This thread is for Mods/Admins/G.Mods to introduce themselves for the community. Here, we tell a little bit about ourselves to ease your mind that we are most definitely not robots. I'll start off then! I'm Paleo, better known to most of you as JJX and along with a majority of staff members, I, along with others, have created this site! I am also the site Admin and League Champion (title) so feel free to shoot me a message if you need help with something though my mods and such may provide more consistent responses. I started role playing on Vdex almost 5 years ago with a group strangers turned friends. I created the ever popular Kanto: The Journey Begins thread, a more scientific and realistic perspective on the Pokemon world with a bit of soft humor. The goal of that role play was to expand the boundaries of what Pokemon meant to people and thus it spawned many side projects like the Pokemon Field Guide. The role play has grown to massive proportions and has inspired many people across different forum sites to create their own copies of my formula. I love the community I have been apart of. We created this site to help provide a home for displaced Vdex members and hopefully amass our own fans and followers. I mainly spend my times playing Minecraft, Pokemon X and of course role playing with a fantastic group. Occasionally I will upload videos and such for upcoming site events and/or thank yous. Nice to meet all of you. Test

It's nice to meet you all, I am mdf2711. My real name is Miles but most of you insist on calling me by my username anyway, so it's fine to generally shorten it to Mdf (with any capitalization variations you can imagine being perfectly fine...unless of course you lowercase my name, then I might get peeved). I am Global Moderator and Elite Four Member here on Remember Shedinja. I'll do my best to make sure this community runs efficiently and smoothly, and you're free to shoot me a PM. I'm a very detail-oriented person that loves to have fun and meet people and be creative. I also have a thing for languages so if you speak something other than English and wish to chat with me and help teach me, I will never say no. Currently I am learning French and Spanish in school, self-teaching myself Japanese and ASL, learning to read Korean hangeul and Hebrew alefbet, and am being taught Vietnamese little by little by a close friend. I was a member of the Vdexproject and helped set up this forum with a group of very talented friends of mine as a safe haven in light of the crisis and possibility of Vdex shutting down. Among other roleplays throughout the years, I am a veteran member of the original and famous "Kanto: The Journey Begins" RP (since page 7!) for almost four years before we moved over to this new forum. I'm here to help make sure we all have an simple, easy transition and an enjoyable time on our new site. Like I said, feel free to message whenever~

Hey everyone! I'm Speshal!
Outside of vDex I go by Martial (pronounced Marshall). I'm an E4 here on RS and I do a good amount of the code editing. I pretend to be good, but all I really do is mess around with things and break them until I break them the right way. I'm gonna try my best to fix things up so that we can get them the way we want them here. If anything breaks, feel free to blame me! It probably was my fault, haha. If you have any questions or suggestions don't hesitate to PM me.
I live in Michigan, and wouldn't want to be anywhere else. The state is so pretty and fun. Detroit isn't as bad as they say, I promise! I've never been stabbed there and I've been going multiple times a Summer for years, so don't worry. I am going to be heading off to college soon and studying Mathematics and Computer Science. I plan to eventually end up working for some sort of gaming company OR teaching math. I love video games as well! I play a lot of League of Legends, Garry's Mod, and Pokemon. Feel free to add me on any of them (SpeshalKid). I have also been involved in RP for a large portion of my life, beginning (I think) when I was roughly ten on some other Pokemon site. It was really bad though and definitely not literary. Then, I moved another forum and stopped, then came to vDex and began again. I was a part of the "Kanto: The Journey Begins" roleplay since page 14 (of the OOC, which at the time was just the IC page). Of the characters you may have heard of, I created "Daniel", "Scarlet", and "Husk". I plan to continue RP for as long as possible!
Pokemon-wise, my favorite type is Water with my favorite Pokemon being Ludicolo. My second favorite Pokemon is probably Wailord (which I own a plush of). My favorite Legendary is Kyogre (and I'm a proud owner of a large Kyogre plush!). My favorite generation is the third because of the styles of Pokemon incorporated!
So, yeah! Feel free to talk to me. I don't bite!

H-heya. I'm a minor member of the admin, but i'm still here! My name is Kismet, Kizzy or Kizmetto online, and have been with the Kanto: Journey Begins since page 1! Such a long time ago. The roleplay helped me grow as a writer, a thinker and as a person. I have made wonderful friends and got me through some stressful times (being able to escape into the roleplay world)
I live in Australia, so you'll see me online at all those odd hours of the day!
Ahhh, im a graphic design major and have earned my diploma, however am not exercising this as no one will employ meeee. But regardless, i still like to make pretty things. I love movies and video games, and ASMR too. I play Magic: The Gathering avidly, and also pokemon tcg. Yveltal is my favourite legendary!
My favourite type is Electric, with manectric being my favourite of coarse.

Helloo there. I'm Clef! I'm a gym leader/mod here~
- I go by Clef due to my favorite pokemon (Clefairy) being my mascot on Vdexproject. I'm also known to be gender-neutral. I was on that site for about 4 years and roleplaying on the internet for about 6 years. I was never a part of the Kanto rp the others were in, but I ran another rp on Vdex that was rather popular for a year called Johto Journeys. Although I love to roleplay and have been doing it for so long, I'm still not a great writer, which is something I love because I'm able to improve with every post I make.
- In real life I'm an 18-year-old boy who lives in the sunny, sandy, and dry... *drumroll* Arizona! My main hobbies are writing plays and acting, as theatre is my biggest passion in life. I'm going to go to school for theatre and hopefully turn my city into a more artistic area. I play pokemon and grand theft auto most of the time, I watch the Food network & Rupaul on tv, my favorite movies are X-men, and my favorite books are the color purple and the help.
- My favorite pokemon types are bug and normal. My favorite pokemon though are Clefairy, Surskit, and Murkrow. My favorite legendary pokemon are Phione and Latias. I make up a lot of my own Fakemon and they can be found on my deviantart: Shuckled.
Well that's about all I can think of saying, but if you have any questions, PM me.

I'm dracoon but you can call me Drac, Linda, Queen Poliwag, Supreme Overlord or Satan uwu I should be a mod/global admin/Elite 4 but hey, being a member for one is a-OK for me too. dracoon has been my username since I was 11, and it stuck after that. Been a part of Kanto itself since page 1- it was in fact my very first Vdex RP and it took off. Though I've been RPing for 7 years, I've only seriously gotten into this about 2-3 years ago so I won't claim that I'm amazingly experienced or madly talented. I was a member of Vdexproject, unfortunately due to schoolwork and the site fading into obscurity I have opted to hang out on other sites such as Flight Rising and occasionally Aywas. You ought to also know that my timezone is the strangest out of everyone here. I am Singaporean, meaning like Kizzy, I won't usually be online in times that everyone else would usually be. Needless to say, my favorite Pokémon is Poliwag and my favorite types would be a tie between Water and Dragon. My writing Tumblr would be ja2ja2, which is a skeletal structure and involves character forms of a huge enormous novel which I'll be writing. If you'd ask what my favorite Legendary is, it would be Lugia. My hobbies involve failure to construct and writing, professional procrastinating and antagonizing people whom call me their friends.

Hi! I'm Wyndi (shortened from WyndiWingfall), and I'll also be one of the mods here.
I've been on VDex for just a little over four years now, so the site has, in a way, seen me through the ups and downs of college. During that time, I've run (and participated in) several mostly non-Pokémon-related roleplays, with some memorable examples being stained glass windows and a Harry Potter freeplay. Aside from that, I think I'm just known for sitting on my dragon hoard of PD. \o/
In real life, I'll be graduating from college in two days! I double majored in environmental studies and English with a concentration in creative writing, and am currently looking for jobs in the former field. More generally, I'm American-born Chinese (I speak Cantonese and a little bit of Mandarin) and female. My other interests include reading, playing the piano (this year is actually the first year I haven't had lessons since I started at age eight), writing poetry, watching TV shows with weirdly gory murders (Criminal Minds, Law & Order: SVU, Hannibal, Game of Thrones...), and crying over sports manga/anime.
My favorite Pokémon type is fire, my favorite non-legendary is Blaziken (closely followed by Charizard), and my favorite legendary is Lugia.
I've been told I can come off as cold or even intimidating (the thought is mind-boggling because I'm about as intimidating as a cotton ball imo), but please feel free to PM me!

Post by Mizumanta on May 29, 2014 3:41:11 GMT
Why Hello^^ I am Mizumanta but you can call me Manta. I will be one of the Moderators for this site. =3 - I am a male in my early 20's and I am going to school for Culinary Arts/Culinery Science. I started rping shortly before joining Vdex almost 4 years ago. I was one of the last to join vdex's original pokemon rp: Kanto The Journey Begins. I used this time to brush up on my rping skills and knowledge about Pokemon while in High School. Now that I am in college, I try to get as much time in as I can brushing up on the world of Pokemon. I am not limited to Pokemon though. I have great knowledge of shows such as Ed Edd and Eddy, Digimon, Yugioh, Bleach, and many other popular programs.
- I am a chef and I love to cook Asian and African food. I also love to act. It's hard to commit to just one profession, but maybe when I get a little famous, I can act in a few movies^^ The name Mizumanta means alot to me, so I love to be called by that name. Check out my Tumblr for more about me =3
- I have a thing for elegant pokemon. Pokemon like Milotic and Togekiss just bring a smile to my face. I am terrible at picking favorites, But I do have an infatuation with the water and fairy type. Gardevoir, Togekiss, Milotic, Greninja, Dewott, and Umbreon are just some of my favorite non legendary pokemon while Darkrai, Xerneas and mew take the top spots for legendary pokemon. I tend to think more logically, even with my wide imagination, so I may be hard to understand at first, but try and get to know me^^

Post by Mini on May 30, 2014 1:23:02 GMT
Hi there everyone I'm minicat, but feel free to just call me Mini. I'm one of the moderators on here as well.
I'm a girl in my twenties living in New England, and love it pretty much. I was/am on vdex for around 3-4 years at this point and have been roleplaying and writing for much longer. Pokemon has always been a part of my life growing up and it's one of my favorite things.
My hobbies include writing, swimming, baking, wasting time on tumblr, watching tv shows and crying over fictional characters. Some of my favorites include the sunshine of my life Parks & Recreation, Game of Thrones, and The Walking Dead. Of course there are plenty more that I love, but those are my top three probably (if I had to list them out). I cry about them a lot on tumblr - of which I have a bunch of side-blogs relating to various things.
When it comes to Pokemon, I think my favorite type is probably dark or ghost. I have so many favorite pokemon, but top 3 non-legendary are Gengar, Braixen, and All Eevelutions. Favorite legendary is probably Ho-oh.
I'm not great at talking about myself so we'll just leave it at that. If you have any questions at all or want to chat feel free to PM me c:
