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.

Most Dangerous Pokemon

Frozen Lotus, Jul 2015: Yveltal. It's the Destruction Pokemon. Isn't it capable of absorbing like... all the life on the entire planet? That's got to be in the front runners. Then there's Magcargo... isn't it as hot as the sun or something?

Quit bugging me!

Dillon_68, Jul 2015: Love the Venipede line, but I'm not sure if I would classify it in the same category as Wurmple or Caterpie, I think Unova's equivalent of the early game, three stage bug is Sewaddle. But then again, Gen I had Caterpie and Weedle.
