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.

Did you find all of the Mega Stones in ORAS?

Sopheria, Jan 2016: Oh gosh, that stinks :( You should definitely go for it once you play again haha, it's much easier to find them in OR/AS than it is in X&Y, since you don't have to wait to get them within that one hour window.

Storyline

Hikamaru, Jan 2016: I think you are right. There is literally too many times you have to travel back to different areas on the map, and also needing a lot of HMs to get around Mt. Coronet makes the gameplay really long and time-consuming.
