PokéCommunity is preparing to undergo a major update in 2023. All members should ensure they can access the email associated with their account as a password reset might be required post-update. The exact date of transition will be made available at a later date.

It appears IMGUR will be (and apparently has already started) deleting images that weren't uploaded directly to an account. You can check the update notes on IMGUR here.

We know a lot of you will have used IMGUR to upload images for your threads and other PC content (signatures, flairs, etc.) and not everyone was doing so with an account.

So please note that some of your existing images may break at some point in the future. We recommend making an IMGUR account if you plan to continue using IMGUR.

Nicknames for Glaceon

Amore, May 21: The only one I’ve owned is named Glacia after the Hoenn E4 member, without whom I would have probably played through Emerald without noticing the Ice type even existed haha (fun trivia: in Japanese games the species name is the same as Glacia’s!) ...

We're not getting anymore remakes?

Cherrim, May 2012: It's not really that easy, though. DS Lites are the only way to do this, currently, and most people who've had them for so long probably aren't having the greatest of luck with them. I NEVER dropped mine and I used it a lot from the day I got it...

pokemon light plat vs florasky

Sydian, May 2012: Those are ROM hacks, not spin offs. Weird. People are moving on from adv gen to spin offs to talk about hacks. Regardless, you can probably take a poll of this in ROM Hacking. Locked.

Didnt exactly know where to post this.

Sydian, May 2012: You'll have to ask in ROM hacking. I'm sure there's a Q&A thread. But this section if for official Pokemon spin-off games, not ROM hacks. Try using Google or finding a video walkthrough. Those usually help me more. Locked.

Fastest time you beat a pokemon game?

Hikamaru, May 2012: Fastest for me was Black. My playthrough of the main story went from October 1st, 2011 - October 14th, 2011. Yeah, a total of 13 days - just shy of a fortnight.
