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.

Favorite Pokemon

Alex_Among_Foxes, Feb 12: Absol's been my favorite Pokemon since my Nuzlocke of X, I went through most of that run with her as my lead 'mon and was never let down. I liked her so much that I named my dog after her as well. (my Absol's nickname that is lol)

Pokemon that could rival Arceus

Sopheria, Apr 2014: In the metagame it's really not that hard to counter. Sure, it has the highest base stats but base stats aren't everything. In fact, I'd say its high stats really don't make it as OP as people make it out to be. A glaring weakness that has actually...

Future starter evo chain types you'd like to see.

MurkMire, Mar 2014: I just wanna see a Grass/Psychic-type. Like a... chameleon, or something. That'd be pretty cool. Also, Fire/Ground type would be nice. All we have is Camerupt, and... yeah. Not a fan. Lastly, a Water/Bug type would be fairly interesting.

Alternative Types

Alfieri, Mar 2014: For some reason I always considered Rhydon to be a steel type cause of it's grey coloring, then again my first game was Sapphire so I guess when I decided to play Platinum, I was confused why my fire attacks did resisted damage lol.

Fourth Evolution

Homura Akemi, Mar 2014: That's quite the stretch. I think Pokemon are already strong enough with evolving at least twice; Mega Evolutions cover the need for an extra one indefinitely. Instead of a 4th evolution, they could just expand on the Mega Evolution concept.
