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!) ...

False event Pokemon rumors

Sebastian_Sommer, Oct 2015: Here's a fun one, anybody heard about pokegods? It's a false rumor created by a bunch of people who jokingly claimed that you can cheat the game in gen 1 through an elaborate process to catch overpowered pokemon that's hidden in the game. But...

Pokmemories

Crystal Berry, Oct 2015: Ok so I was in school, and I had FireRed or LeafGreen. I had a friend who wanted to trade with me. He promised he'd give me shinies and nice stuff, and I guess we couldn't trade in school or something so I ended up actually giving him my cartridge...

Is It Too Easy?

Hikamaru, Oct 2015: He's right. It's not due to mechanics being nerfed to make games easier, but rather the experience we have as players. We get smarter over time and as a result we're more used to the game and that's why we seem to think there's not much challenge...

That Was Anti-Climatic!

Welcome!Welcome to The CAVE!

Nolafus, Oct 2015: I actually just rush through Victory Road as fast as I can simply because I want to beat the game and I'm so close, haha. Although I do remember getting lost in Black, which was very annoying until I found my way through.

Navigation difficulty

Precious Tears, Oct 2015: Route 132, 133 and 134 are particularly evil. Oh and along Mt. Mortar as Seth says. While Stark Mountain and Victory Road in XY can be grueling if you want to navigate the whole place.

Exploring multiple regions

Caite-chan, Oct 2015: I loved being able to do more than one region in a game. There was always so much more to do. I really wish they would do that again. I kinda want a mega game that would say have ALL of the regions in one game. I'm pretty sure that would take some...

Favorite Elite Four members

Do you follow EV Training Guides or use your own method for EV Training?

Different methods of shiny obtaining!

It's A One-Hit KO!

Hoard Battling Trainers

DraconianWing, Oct 2015: To be honest I think 5-on-1 battles would be more of a chore if they happened more frequently. However, I'd be fine with it if it was kept restricted to villain grunts/bosses, since it fits into the theme of being a villain quite well. On the...

High risk, higher return

AkameTheBulbasaur, Oct 2015: I generally don't like moves that require you to guess your opponent's next move. I'm not any good at predicting whether they will use a Physical or Special move. Half the time I get it wrong or they use a Status move anyway. And then if I move...

Where Does it End?

Favorite Moves To Use

Judge Mandolore Shepard, Oct 2015: Moves that I enjoy using include Earthquake, Surf, and Ice Beam. One of the reasons I like all three of those moves is because until Gen V, all of the final forms of the Water type starters could learn those moves.
