I don't know how to describe this too well, so i'll keep it short and sweet.

I find it to be an incredible pain to have to subscribe to EVERY thread I post on, just to see if someone replied to me- especially when I might not even get a reply!
Sites like www.deviantart.com manage to notify users when someone makes a reply to one of their posts, so is there a way that Serebii users could get a message (perhaps a Private Message automatically sent by the server) when someone uses the "quote" button on our posts?

I don't know how these forums are coded, so I don't know how easy it'd be, but if it's possible, it'd be an absolute godsend. :)

When you reply to a topic, the post icon gets a black dot on it. You don't have to subscribe to every thread you post in to remember which ones you have.

Yes, but you still have to check every page to see if someone has replied to you. The black dot shows up when you've posted, and there's the open envelope icon for new replies, but that doesn't tell you if someone has specifically replied to you.
There's been many occasions when a thread i've posted on has gotten dozens of replies, but no-one is specifically saying anything to me.

these forums aren't like dA. it can't detect exactly who someone might be replying to, even if there's a quote in their post. you just have to live with it in a place this big.
