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.

Have you ever noticed?...

Kotowari, Mar 2013: I don't think anything's wrong with "playing Japan (painfully) straight". Jotho's story line was very heavily based on the Legends surrounding the region, and I think the whole lay-out of the region helped to amplify that. As an outsider, I think...

Do you think it's canon to use the mascot legendary during the story?

Pinkie-Dawn, Feb 2013: With the exception of BW, the only thing that's canon when it comes to the mascot legendaries is that the main trainer simply defeats them rather than capturing them, as a way to use them again as post-game legendaries for third...
