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.

Ciax, Dec 2011: I despise the Unown with a passion. They aren't even a good gimick, when you catch them all nothing happens at all. At least some other gimmick pokemon have uses. Be honest who has ever used unown in a playthough of game. Hmmmmm..... I thought so.

"Ugh this is hard. Go! Machoke!"

Fire Walker, Apr 2011: I would definately rob a beauty parlor. I would have a Pokémon like Jynx or Wigglytuff or the like and have them do an inside job and steal everything. I would also protect myself from rapists with a small but fierce Pokémon like Tyrogue.
