I am | I am an 24 year old guy born in New York. My name is Zach and I am a college graduate. I started playing Pokémon since around 2004. My first Pokémon game was [[Pokémon LeafGreen Version]] (which I foolishly almost sold back to GameStop!). I got several Pokémon games in 2005, such as [[Pokémon Emerald Version|Emerald]], [[Pokémon XD: Gale of Darkness|XD]] (I even have the XD decals you get for preordering the game) and probably others such, as [[Pokémon Colosseum|Colosseum]] & [[Pokémon Channel|Channel]]. My first video game system was either a [[Nintendo GameCube|GameCube]] or a [[Game Boy Advance|GBA]]. Eventually, I would get a red [[Game Boy Advance SP|GBA SP]], which becomes my handheld of choice until I get a DS. I used to have a lot of GBA & GameCube games, but sold back a handful of them (not the [[Pokémon]], {{smw|Mario (series)|Mario}} & {{zw|The Legend of Zelda (series)|Zelda}} ones, as those are my 3 favorite video game franchises). | ||

I'm a very big main series, PMD & Ranger fan. The Wii didn't have the greatest Pokémon games, unlike the Gamecube, but I still have a few Pokémon Wii games (along with one Pokémon Wii VC & WiiWare game).

I am an 24 year old guy born in New York. My name is Zach and I am a college graduate. I started playing Pokémon since around 2004. My first Pokémon game was Pokémon LeafGreen Version (which I foolishly almost sold back to GameStop!). I got several Pokémon games in 2005, such as Emerald, XD (I even have the XD decals you get for preordering the game) and probably others such, as Colosseum & Channel. My first video game system was either a GameCube or a GBA. Eventually, I would get a red GBA SP, which becomes my handheld of choice until I get a DS. I used to have a lot of GBA & GameCube games, but sold back a handful of them (not the Pokémon, Mario & Zelda ones, as those are my 3 favorite video game franchises).
Now we move into the DS & Wii era. I got ton of Pokémon games for the DS and just shows how Pokémon is my favorite handheld series (and my favorite video game series of all time). I have Diamond (received from a friend back in 2011), Pearl (2007), Platinum (2009), SoulSilver (2010), White (2011), White 2 (2012), Blue Rescue Team (2006), Explorers of Time (2008), Explorers of Sky (2009), Ranger (2006), Shadows of Almia (2009) & Guardian Signs (2010). I'm a very big main series, PMD & Ranger fan. The Wii didn't have the greatest Pokémon games, unlike the Gamecube, but I still have a few Pokémon Wii games (along with one Pokémon Wii VC & WiiWare game). I have Pokémon Battle Revolution (2008), Brawl (2008), My Pokémon Ranch (2008) Pokémon Snap (2008) & PokéPark 2 (2012).
Next is the 3DS & Wii U era! I sold back my DS Lite (which I got in 2007 and I also used to have an original DS, which I got with my birthday money in 2005), so I could get an Aqua Blue 3DS for my birthday in 2011. Bought a white New 3DS in 2016. For retail 3DS games, I have Gates to Infinity (2013), Pokémon Y (2013), Omega Ruby (2014), Super Mystery Dungeon (2015), Pokémon X (2016), Sun (2016), Alpha Sapphire (2016), Ultra Sun (2017) & Detective Pikachu (2018). For 3DS eShop Pokémon games, I have Pokédex 3D (2011), Pokémon Dream Radar (2012), Pokédex 3D Pro (2012), Pokémon Bank (2014), Poké Transporter (2014) Blue (2016), Yellow (2016), Silver (2017) & Crystal (2018). For Wii U eShop games, I have Pokémon Pinball: Ruby & Sapphire (2015), Blue Rescue Team (2016) & Explorers of Sky (2016). For Wii U retail games, I have Smash Wii U (2014) & Pokkén Tournament (2016).
Next is the most recent era, Switch! I bought a Switch in August 2017. I own Let's Go, Pikachu (2018), Smash Ultimate (2018), Shield (2019) & Rescue Team DX (2020).
I also own a few non-Nintendo consoles. I have a PS1 (not sure when I got it), PS2 (2007), Xbox 360 (2010) & PS4 (2015). Of the four, I only really play the PS4, which is mainly for DBZ, Naruto, Red Dead, Spider-Man, Batman, Uncharted, Kingdom Hearts, Just Cause and whatever else might interest me.
At the end of the day, I'm mainly a Nintendo fan.
I'm not sure when exactly I first heard about Bulbapedia (maybe in 2008 or something) and have been going on the site for a long time. I constantly check Bulbanews and just look at a lot of Bulbapedia's pages. On February 12, 2011 (the same day BW001 & BW002 aired in the US), I decided to make my own account. I chose the username Torpoleon because I had used it a lot after someone made a fusion of 2 of my favorite (at the time) fully evolved Starter Pokémon, Torterra & Empoleon.
I've made tons of edits to Bulbapedia, especially when editing was unlocked after B2W2's release. That was really the first time I felt like I was doing a lot (because I was) and it was all pretty fun. The road has been pretty shaky so far, but still an amazing one. I look forward to making more edits to Bulbapedia and hopefully one day, it can be complete!
