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.

Exp share predictions

BreakingHeart, Apr 2016: I wish we had the option to pick which Pokemon gain experience when the Exp. Share is on. It's annoying when your whole team levels up quickly except for the team members who gain experience slowly (my Gardevoir and Aggron in OmegaRuby).

Super training vs EV training?
