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.

Recolor a shiny

RadEmpoleon, Nov 2020: Incineroar. I can’t stand when white replaces black parts in shinies. Easily one of the worst white shinies, because the red and white makes it look like a candy cane. I made 2 different versions that look significantly better.

what pokémon would you have as a pet?

Uecil, Sep 2020: I'm going to say Vulpix, just because it's my favourite. Pikachu came to mind because my cat has a tendency to act like one, minus the ability to use electricity. But! It would def come down between those two.

the most scariest pokemon you ever know!

Palamon, Nov 2020: Hypno's Pokedex entry states it kidnaps people. So, no thanks. I'm good. Also, Dusclops is a black hole, apparently. That's pretty scary, if you ask me? But no other Pokemon come off as "scary" to me. Just those two.
