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.

What is the weakest Pokémon (stat wise) (not level wise) you've taken on a Champion with?

(2 pages)
Hikamaru, Sep 2013: Definitely my Roselia back in my Ruby version, she was one heck of a Pokemon that definitely held her own in battle so yeah she really surprised me at how well she did, but then again she wasn't part of an evolution line back in those days.

Pokemon with types\abilities that makes them "Bosses"

Is Pokemon progressively getting easier?

Captain Oshawott, Sep 2013: Personally I do believe that the games are getting significantly easier. Which is alright, because some of the younger players might get deterred from the game. The decrease in difficulty is a bit annoying for me, but that's why I play the game...

What's your opinion on IVs?

Cerberus87, Sep 2013: I wish there were less IVs... 0-31 is too much IMO. Way too much of a difference, way too hard to breed for a perfect Pokémon.

Gen V & VI Breeding Guide [Updated October 27, 2013]

(2 pages)
Necrum, Apr 2014: You can. You just have to get lucky on the one stat that doesn't get passed, assuming that 5 31s pass. It's pretty much a 1/32 chance of getting a 6 IV if you pass the 5. 1/32 because 31 is max and you count 0.
