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.

How am i supposed to use baton pass?

Eliminator Jr., Oct 2009: Baton Pass may seem, and usually is, useless for most in-game battles. However it plays a massive part in strategies for battling others over Wi-Fi or in the Battle Tower or wherever, where battles aren't just won by brute force.
