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.

Do you use fast-forward playing on emulators?

Guest123_x1, Oct 2013: I never bother to play my emulated games in 'speed-up', as I prefer to play them at the same speed as if I was playing them on their real intended systems. Not just for Pokémon, but for everything else, too.

Tough gyms
