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!) ...

The Pokepark Games

*Icecold*, Aug 2013: I kind of disliked the original Pokepark, because its story was, as many people have mentioned, extremely kiddy and weak. After game, there was literally nothing to do but run around. Pokepark 2 has an improved story, but not as good as is...

The most relevant types across generations according to you

Hiatus, Aug 2013: Grass, electric, fire, and water-types were a little more important to me than the rest in Pokémon Ruby, Sapphire, and Emerald, because they were needed in order to counter Team Aqua's and Team Magma's Pokémon. In other games, all the types were...

Light (or "Sun") type for 7th Gen?

What Pokemon game is best for beginners?
