I run #1052360360172199977 and the chansey helper team, on top of other sprite manager duties and responsibilities. I'm also the primary sprite pack master, and I also occasionally help Frog with pif 1 dev work and content planning.

Hi, I'm Pory. I don't know how I got here, but since I'm here, I might as well tell you I like food (food is yummy), games (games are fun), and reading (reading is pain FUN.) When I'm not spriting (who would've thought, a spriter in a server full of spriters), I'm typically either:
- Figuring out I'm bad at a videogame,
- Composing music,
- Getting irritated at music for not sounding right, or
- Trying to learn something new (learning is
tortureFUN.)

Hi, I'm Pory. I'm a Moderator, so some of my responsibilities include, but are not limited to:

About Me:
Hiya everyone! I'm a scientist who winds down by playing Pokémon Infinite Fusion and helping out in this Discord! I used to play competitive games for a living but can no longer compete with the new generation. Because of this, I became a filthy casual, playing mainly single-player games. Right now I spend my free time tinkering with electronics, playing games (Pokémon, Elden Ring, Warframe, Deadlock, Total War: Warhammer), going to the gym, and sleeping. I love sleeping. A lot. 
Staff Role:
As a Tech Manager, I spend most of my time floating around #tech-support with my Porygon friends to help users set up and fix their game. As well as sorting through #1142871804269052004 to make sure every issue is well documented for development. However, you will probably see me around many other channels as well, as I do enjoy a good chat from time to time.

Timezone: CET. My noon is your <t:1777456800:t>
About me:
Hello! 
I'm Doodledoo. I like to help newbies and guiding them towards starting their spriter journey. I'm a software developer who started learning pixel art in 2022, and I joined this server in January 2023 after this game exploded in popularity among youtube playthroughs.
I'm one of the original Klefkis, helping people get the spriter role, and over time I've become Bot Manager and Sprite Manager. If you're looking for who's in charge of maintaining Fusion Bot, that would be me! I'm open to ideas or suggestions at #1127996518314557520
I'm also a big fan of completing fusion lines where the last evolution doesn't currently have a custom sprite, but pre-evos do. I don't hang out often in the chat channels but I'm always happy to help anyone, be it with guidance, feedback or ideas!
Staff roles:
- Klefki is not a staff role but I'm including it here because that's the role I hold dearest to me
- Bot Manager: As of 2025, I'm in charge of Fusion Bot so if it breaks feel free to yell at me, but that won't happen
- Sprite Manager: I'm in charge of regular sprite manager duties and I'm also part of the people managing Klefkis.

What do you even do???
I'm GamR, the only Community Manager with a visible color ||((eat your heart out @violet flax ))||
But what does being a Community Manager even mean????
Well, it means that I'm the guy behind most of the events here within the IF server, from the regular contests to the bigger stuff like Fusion Day! I also manage the **Mime Jr.**s and keep an eye on their events. If you have any questions or suggestions, my DMs are always open!
-# alongside the suggestion form I keep open in the pins of #event-announcements.
Ok that's cool n' all, but I still know nothing about you.
Well then here's some cool stuff!
- Despite my join date, I've been here for 5 years now!
- I've done a lot of different Staff positions over the years
- My all-time faves are Meltan and Melmetal, but also love Qwilfish, Porygon-Z, and Binacle
- Did you know? Did you know that when you're eating hamburger there will be less and less hamburger until there's
- no more hamburger? This doesn't mean the burger is gone it's just
- not a burger anymore. Did you know that? Now you know.
- Furthermore please look at how fast this walks ->
- In case it's not obvious, my OC is based off of Meltan.

Staff role:
- I'm a Sprite Manager, and I mostly do stuff behind the scenes (such as sorting your sprites, posting and archiving the unposted sprites, moderating spritework and galleries, taking my part in decision making of all sorts, etc etc) and help spriters out with a wide variety of nuances. I'm one of the first Sprite Managers here on the server, which comes in real handy in some situations.
- Diving deeper into the specifics, I'm one of the people responsible for ensuring people follow the Guidelines. Ping me if you're unsure about any of the spiriting rules, whether something breaks the guidelines or not, and whenever conflicts over spriting arise.
-# - Also, if you're spriting in Photoshop, I can help with all the technical stuff you need to know (and my first advice would be to not sprite in Photoshop). - I'm a PIF: Hoenn dev helper (mostly doing the overworld assets, such as the new Pokemon overworld animations).
- Aaand lastly, I'm moderating the #русский channel! Feel free to chime in if you speak or learn Russian
Cheers!
