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.

Post-Post Apocalypse pokemon

Margot, Mar 2016: I love a really good post-apocalyptic story, especially when it deals with power struggles. If this does go up, I would be interested :)

Organizing an RP

dud190, Mar 2016: That may be easy for you to say since you have been here longer than I have and have seen more, but I feel better about potential success if I have someone else helping me with this. It helps with potential ideas too, having an extra person to help.

And They All Lived Happily Ever After

Sonata, Mar 2016: I think it depends on the character and the setting. I don't think there's really a catch all answer, and if there is then that should be a pretty big sign to you. For a darker character who's only intent is to kill until there's nothing left to...

Do you enjoy world building?

Sonata, Mar 2016: I love worldbuilding. I love making lore. And I love doing both within some of the more vague, open-to-interpretation, or less restricted rps of others. When I try to create original worlds of my own filled with all these different tidbits of lore...

How to stay motivated?

Jauntier, Mar 2016: I'm pretty decisive. If I know I have no motivation in a role-play after a while, if it feels like a drag to continue slugging my character along, I will end participation--or if others feel it en mass as well, I'll stall with them out of existence,...

RPs Feedback

Dusty, Mar 2016: I think that having an RP directly centered around comedy or romance would be kind of difficult. RPs are stories, and while having a romance or comedy RP is entirely possible, I think that there would have to be more going on. On top of that, I'm...

Stat Me

Magic in RP

With great power...
