Welcome to Smogon! Take a moment to read the Introduction to Smogon for a run-down on everything Smogon, and make sure you take some time to read the global rules.
We also have one on Bulbapedia
I dont read TV Tropes much. Its basically a wiki run by weeaboos and people obsessed with writing internet fanfiction.
I lol'd at the part of the article that said "typical smogonite in training".
I was looking up stuff on ED, and stumbled upon an article about this website. I gotta admit, It was hilarious in a f*cked up way.
the ED article about Smogon can be found here:
