    News: Pokémon Presents announced for 27 February

    While it might be asking for a lot, I've seen fan art of a Pokemon Legends Celebi, and something like that is exactly what I'm crossing my fingers for. While I've struggled to get invested in the newer games, I think there's so much to explore with the history of Johto, and I'd kill for a...

    [Poll] Favorite box art legendary

    I came into this thread wanting to vote for Rayquaza, but since that's not an option, I'll go with Lugia. The 2nd Pokemon movie really helps its rating for me, plus I have some fun memories using it in Gold. Kyogre would be a close 2nd/3rd choice for me.

    Would you change anything about your favorite Pokémon?

    Shiny Butterfree isn't pink... I mean it was right there. It's stats also aren't great, which I guess is to be expected of an early game Bug type Pokemon. But it's even lower than most other fully evolved Bug types, and some single stage evolutions like Illumise/Volbeat and Durant. Would just...

    Ever went to a Pokémon event in real life?

    I was lucky enough to attend the 2013 Pokemon World Championships, since they were held in Vancouver and I lived pretty close. Was cool to see Junichi Masuda there, but the line was too long to actually meet him. Overall the event was fun- lots of cosplayers and just general Pokemon fans. If...

    Favourite Shiny Pokemon?

    While I'm not surprised, still sad there wasn't a single mention of shiny Azumarill yet so far. While that's my favorite, I like anything that is wildly different from the original colors (yes, even the green ones).

    Do you feel old?

    Mentally I feel older than I am, though part of that is because almost all the staff I work with are 10-15+ years older than I am, but they're always coming to me for stuff. The younger part of me hasn't gone away, I just don't spend as much time with it as my older self. Physically though I'm...

    Any beta Pokémon designs you liked better than the final ones?

    The beta Pokemon that looked like Sharpedo was really cool, and I wish we would've got that instead. The regular Sharpedo isn't bad at all, but the half-shark design works much better with the anchor than nothing at all.

    What Pokémon do you wish there were more/better merch of?

    I always want more Butterfree stuff. Aside from a plush in Japanese Pokemon Centers when every Pokemon was getting one, I don't see a whole lot, and wish there was more. Unown too. I got an unofficial print from a con one year, and which they were used for more things.

    What PC forum skin do you use?

    I'm still on one of the pre 2.0 styles using The Stand Nexus. I still miss the PC Pro theme, since that used to be the closest thing to early-2000s style forums, without being the complete default.

    Rate how into Pokémon you are currently on a scale of 1-10

    I feel kind of weird that I'm at a 3 or a 4 right now. I used to be closer to an 8 or 9 basically my whole adult life, but now it's kind of at the back of my mind at best on most days. I'll probably be slightly more when Scarlet/Violet come out, but aside from Pokemon Go, I'm not doing a whole...

    Your birthday determines your Monotype

    Looks like I get three Flying types. Butterfree is an easy number one, and I think I'd like to take Altaria #2. I'm split on quite a few for my last one, but I'll care less about coverage and just pick one of my favorites and go with Drifblim.

    From The PokéCommunity Staff: [CLOSED] Pokémon Scarlet and Violet Giveaway

    I'm not 100% sure which starter I'm going to pick until they reveal the final evolutions, but right now I'm leaning towards Sprigatito (though Quaxly is a strong choice, too). Hosting giveaways on the PC social media was always fun, so happy to see we're still doing them!

    Have you ever tried to cheat in any of the games before?

    100%. I remember using both Gold and Emerald for cloning glitches, and you could duplicate items that way as well. Never had any cheating devices or anything like that, but on emulators all I would use were walk through walls cheats anyway, just for the novelty of it.

    Your Signature (Handwriting)

    My signature used to be my first and middle initial plus last name, then it turned into just my first initial and part of my last name, now it's just a really lazy first/last initial that looks more like numbers than letters. Outside of that, I do pride myself on having pretty decent cursive...
