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.

Your Thoughts on the Nintendo 3ds and its Family

Is playing a rom af a game you don't own is bad and illegal?

Nah, Apr 17: I can't say I'm an expert on this, but as far as I know, simply making use of an emulator or playing a ROM Hack isn't illegal. Or at least if it is, it's so very impractical to try to arrest or sue every rando playing one that nobody bothers to. You...

Is the Nintendo switch really an inferior console?

CoolKid575, Apr 16: I wouldn't say it's inferior. Yeah it has weaker hardware but it's portable and only costs $300 in comparison to the ~$400/500 the Xbox and Playstation costs. It also has some pretty killer apps like BOTW and the best party games of any current...

Rhythm games, anyone?

RadEmpoleon, Mar 16: I got into rhythm games almost 3 years ago at this point and I love them so much. Definitely one of my favorite game genres. Though I've only played mobile ones at this point (Cytus, Arcaea, Phigros, etc...), I'd love to get osu or ADOFAI someday.

The Next Nintendo Console

Your very first video game

Solez, Jan 8: In terms of home computers, it would probably be Burnin' Rubber or TMNT on the Amstrad CPC 6128. However, in terms of video games, it would have been Super Mario 64.
