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.

Pokemon types they got horribly wrong

Adam Levine, Jun 2015: One word: Doduo. The Doduo line has a typing that everyone disagrees to: Normal/Flying. Even if it can learn Fly (which seems odd), it doesn't even have wings. Just because it's a bird, it doesn't mean it's a Flying-type.

Which Legendary is NOT worthy of its Legendary status?

Adam Levine, Jun 2015: If I could choose the least qualified for its status, obviously Genesect. Being a prehistoric bug and being revived with metallic traits isn't considered legendary. I mean, you can get an Omastar and upgrade it. Bam. It can't be a legendary this way.
