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.

Pokémon Gaming Central

For topics that aren't necessarily restricted to one game, Pokémon Gaming Central ranges from comparing and contrasting the differences in the gaming generations to discussing the gaming franchise as a whole.

How to get shinies without trading?

Sydian, Apr 2011: Chaining. Soft resetting. RNG abuse. Masuda method. Luck. There are no real guides to getting them, I'm afraid. Use the Q&A threads next time, please! Locked.

Pokemon as a Game

NamelessGuy, Apr 2011: People don't seem to realize that to be truly successful at a Pokemon game, it takes a lot of dedication. Battling effectively requires a lot of carefully planned out strategies and movesets.

Time to put up my rocks, and then send in Gyarados for the sweep!

Daycare leveling?
