Hello

I'm new here. I live in India and absolutely love Pokemon. The games never really blew up in India the way they did in other countries (most of my friends don't even know the anime is based on a video game series). I never had anyone to trade or battle with back in the GBA days and I never owned any of the DS systems (I am just catching up with the 4th and 5th Generations).

Now that I have a 3DS I feel like becoming a part of the Pokemon community.

First on my list of things to do: start a new game of Pokemon black with a Beldum as my starter! Oh the joys of trading.

Hello Underachiever, Welcome to the Forums! :)

I recommend you get aquainted with the FAQs, rules, and stickies of the Forums and sections.

If you have any questions, feel free to ask

---------

Technically you can't begin with Beldum as your starter. If you want to trade from another Pokemon B&W game to use Beldum as your main Pokemon, you have to get the 1st badge and defeat Team Plasma in the DreamYard, and re-talk to the scientist. Then you'll be able to trade and then use Beldum as your main Pokemon.
 
Hi, Underachiever! I'm new to Serebii also, and I'm just a little behind in the world of Pokemon. (Considering, I haven't beaten Pokemon White yet...)

Wait, are you serious?
I thought you needed to wait until recieving the National Pokedex (or whatever) before getting any non-5th generation pokemon.

That's only if you Poketransfer from an older Generation game. If your 2nd B&W game already has an older Generation Pokemon, you can trade it to your 1st game.
 
Welcome to sppf!

If you need any help or just want a friend feel free to ask me.

L.F.D.
 
Thank you, everyone!

I'm still a little ignorant towards the ins and outs of trading. I'm also not very sure about the trading forum rules. Would a trade request like mine be viable? It's not for competitive use and there probably aren't many Pokemon I'd be able to offer in return.

Again, thank you for the welcome.
