Too many people join pokefind which is a good thing! The problem with that is there will be noobs who didnt read the guide book explaining how to play. I have seen way too many people ask where the pokemon center is, how to trade/what level to trade, how to catch pokemon, how do I join a team, etc. All of these questions just fill up the chat but they just had to read how to play.
I guess that means I'm a noob, because I didn't read the guide book until I was lvl 14! Anyways, great suggestion! Maybe when the professor let you choose your Pokémon, he'll tell you about it?
