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.

One Region or More?

Tesbi, Nov 2011: I think it'd be a good idea if it could be pulled-off well. New music, Pokémon, trainers, culture possibly, etc. That's what separates two regions and an extended region anyway.

Trainers on Route 1?

Kevin, Oct 2011: Eh. I like to give players time to train their teams before putting all the action in. Usually the second route is a fine choice to put trainers in the game, but the first route isn't as good, unless their Pokemon are Level 2 or something.
