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!) ...

How does damage calculate?

Flowerchild, Jul 2017: i wonder how they worked out with a complex equation for damage like that. there's a lot of pretty arbitrary numbers and coefficients in it. did they come up with that just kinda randomly or was it based on something else? /nerd

A Place To Call Your Own

Lunar, Jul 2017: That would be really cool, some form of player housing would be really welcome in Pokemon imo, would be nice if there was a dedicated potential house for the player in every town/city in a region too.
