hi, so i just joined, and i tried to click on explore in hopes to somehow get my first pet, but for some reasons it shows an error saying it refuses to load, how do i even get my first pet?

To create a pet click on pets in the 'personal' dropdown tab. The link for creating a pet is at the top of the page. Since your account is a few months old, you should check out the pets other people are adopting out. like ">https://subeta.net/forums.php/read/941631/rehoming-3-pets/1/ and ">https://subeta.net/forums.php/read/941526/LN-Pokemon-name-UFA/1/

Some things on the site are still a little wonky today, but it's smoothing out slowly. If there's anything else specific that you need help with, feel free to ping or message me..., I'm more than happy to help.
