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.

Nicknames for Glaceon

Amore, May 21: The only one I’ve owned is named Glacia after the Hoenn E4 member, without whom I would have probably played through Emerald without noticing the Ice type even existed haha (fun trivia: in Japanese games the species name is the same as Glacia’s!) ...

Does anyone else make OCs for their playthroughs?

Adam Levine, May 22: When it comes to the player character, sort of? The designs I usually use for my trainers are based on my sona, but other than the names and designs, I don't feel so attached to them as to call them anything more than my vessels. No, the OCs I...

If you could change Pokemon‘s release schedule, what would you do?

Adam Levine, May 22: I hear Pikachu's voice in my head. And we're going to keep developing until Pikachu says it's a good game. totally not a reference to a quote morio kishimoto made regarding sonic and the black knight I'd make the games release just one year later...

Favorite Pokémon (In Terms of Game Design)

Adam Levine, May 22: So, I'm the type of person to dissect game design given enough time, and when it comes to Pokémon, not many of them strike me as interesting in a gameplay sense. But every once in a while, especially in later generations, Game Freak proves that...

What game(s) have you replayed the most?

Amore, May 21: Emerald for me. For a couple years (or at least it felt like that) it was my first and only game, so I would endlessly replay it and start over. I remember I could get to Hall of Fame in 16hrs flat consistently. LeafGreen got a lot of play too but I...

Competitive

Have you ever attempted to play Pokémon competitively before?

Zed01, May 19: Yes and I enjoyed it a lot (most of the time lol). So my first time trying to battle competitively was in the very late Gen 5, maybe like a couple of months before Gen 6 came out, and that was on Showdown I think. I mostly did Random Battles and I...

What battle gimmick would you create for Generation X?

Devalue, May 17: Put less time into it than you might think. Wrote out short bits for two other ideas also. (1. Swap out one move for the match on the fly. 2. Max IVs/all EVs/natures + accuracy boost). Came across as too weak or too boring. Must be a little...

Favorite Part of Your Least Favorite Pokemon Game?

(2 pages)
Elder Trainer, May 16: Probably my only favorite things about Gen V (that's right, I said it) would have to be the Nimbasa City and B/W 1 Team Plasma battle themes, as well as the introduction of Tepig, one of my favorite starters if only based on design. That's not to...

What do you think about the idea of Pokémon having two Abilities simultaneously?

Corveone, May 14: Imagine Bibarel having Simple and Moody at the same time. That would be terrifying.

Worst Pokémon to use for playthroughs

Janp, May 13: As someone, who loves to take "bad" Pokémon and do a solo Nuzlocke with them, I have to say that the worst Pokémon are the ones that you don't enjoy using.

Do you move your Pokémon from HOME to future games?

mothman, May 10: i haven't downloaded HOME at all. between the subscription and how not all pokemon will be in future games now, it feels like a trap. many of my pokemon are in the gen 6 games, and will be staying there

Overpowered Pokémon abilities

Qibli, May 7: Opportunist is a very overwhelming ability, one shouldn't take lightly and I avoid using stats-boosting moves when fighting the psychic gym for that matter. Desolated land it makes me laugh when the opponent trying to one-shot you with water-move,...

My first pokemon is diamond

Sweet Serenity, Apr 29: I'm not really that interested in rom hacks to be honest. I prefer the real deal. I do want to try some out though when I get time. Also, I am a gen fiver, not a genwunner.

Most Recent Mechanics (Re)Discoveries

What's the longest you've had unhatched eggs sitting in your PC?

Sweet Serenity, Apr 28: I think I still have some eggs in my PC that have been sitting there literally for years, mainly in my old games. I should get to hatching them soon.

Evolutions and Strength

Corveone, Apr 22: Normally, when a Pokémon evolves all of its stats raise (how much they increase depends on the species. E.g. Pupitar will receive a 190 total base stats increase when it becomes Tyranitar, while Misdreavus will only get a total +60 BST. Each species...
