IMPORTANT: Following a takedown request, the following hacks have been delisted from PokéCommunity:

  • Pokémon Glazed
  • Pokémon: Giratina Strikes Back
  • Pokémon Flora Sky
  • Pokémon Stranded
The downloads and discussion threads for these hacks will no longer be accessible, and staff will be unable to return questions regarding accessing this content.

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.

What is your current hack team?

PageEmp, Dec 2015: So yeah, a generic team topic, but for hacks. Here's mine, It's from Glazed. Note: I will document this run, so major spoilers. Well, so that's it. This run could be better, but could be worse. I'm hoping it gets more interesting later on.

How would you expand Kanto?

BadEgg~, Dec 2015: I wouldn't change any of the maps of mainland Kanto for nostalgia's sake. But I would increase the size of the Sevii islands, and make the story a bit more interesting. The post game feels like a bit of a slapdash afterthought as it is.
