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!) ...

Set vs Switch

Yato, Aug 2014: I use Switch most of the time. However, I've tried out Set for a few challenges, and I have to admit it's slightly more challenging, which I like. I might try it for normal playthroughs just for the heck of it~

brb using the game corner

PageEmp, Jul 2020: My favourite game corner... would have to be D/P/Pt’s. It’s literally the only one I can actually play and not just simply buy coins for. I actually think the game for HGSS is fine, I just wished we actually could buy coins.

Most overrated Pokemon ( Not Competitively )

Pepperton, Jul 2014: Charizard is extremely overrated, I never saw the appeal in it - I guess it came with being first generation and one of the most powerful in the original 151.
