I currently own a [[Nintendo GameCube]], a [[Wii]], a [[Nintendo Wii U]], and a [[Nintendo 3DS]], as well as the European [[Region|version]] of the four main [[Pikmin series|games]]. Special thanks to my great friend Thomas for buying me ''Pikmin 3''! As for the ''[[New Play Control!]]'' versions, I do have access to them, but do not own them.

In other places, I am also known as SRB2Espyo or EspyoPT; mostly when "Espyo" is already taken. I was born in 1991, and I'm from Portugal. My current project is the [[fanon:Topic:Pikmin Engine by Espyo|Pikmin fangame engine]].

During my time on post-split Pikipedia, I eventually worked on several articles, always cleaning up and adding things wherever I could. As time passed, my English skills, my ability to work with wikis, and my ''Pikmin'' knowledge grew ever stronger. Currently, I'd say I'm one of the most dedicated ''Pikmin'' fans out there.

In 2014, one of my most active years, I worked on raising the bar on article quality several times over. Sometimes noting a thing that could serve as a new guideline, sometimes realizing something to add to a template, etc. Every little detail I could find, I tried to improve upon and update the corresponding guidelines, in order to maximize the wiki's quality. On top of that, I also started getting technical and abstract, and started working on content and articles that relate to stuff [[:Category:Real world|outside the games' canon]], as well as technical content from within the game's data, especially [http://tcrf.net unused content]. I also worked on other small details here and there, such as the [[Fanon:Pikmin fangame engine|engine]], tools to help examine game content, and a bot for the [[Special:WebChat|chatroom]], known as Testyo.

Eventually, this caught the attention of editors at Pikmin Wiki, which, at the time, was a monumental place. I was called in to discuss the possibility of a merge between the two wikis, something I've always planned on doing. We talked, we discussed, we planned, and after a long night, we eventually reached the conclusion that the community will all stick in Pikipedia, in order for it to become the ultimate ''Pikmin'' wiki.
