If you could screenshot it & post it here, that would be nice, since it sounds a little different than the Capcha messages I've seen before.

This has come up a for a few users before. The Capcha/cloudflare thing can be triggered if you're viewing or editing a thread with a ton of CSS - it, for whatever reason, triggers the Capcha/Cloudflare security features. It's really annoying, no doubts there.

also be sure that you machine / device is clean and anti-virus/malware free by scanning it with a quality AnitVirus / AntiMalware application.

Shouldn't the Pokemon Direct advertisement be taken down by now? It's been nearly two weeks since the event.

Even though the event is over, I am sure the discussion about it is still going strong so I assume that is why it is still up. It is also a good link for those who missed it and haven't been around to catch up on the action.

If you mean a background picture in your profile you have to either be a supporter or staff member. While being a supporter typically means donating money, sometimes tiers are given out as prizes in contests and the like so keep an eye out :)

You can upload them to your album located on your profile and then use them as a background, however you must be a supporter to actually use the pictures on your profile. Hope this helped :)

Also, to further clarify, you need to set the album settings to "Profile" if you're a staff member/supporter and you'll be able to use the pics as a background.

For us members who aren't staff or have paid money, what's the default avatar size? 100x100?

I believe it's 130x130, but I could be wrong on that since it's been a while for me lol

Usually though if you upload your avatar here the size should shrink to whatever it's restricted to based on your supporter rank, though.

Nathan September 25th, 2013 6:09 PM

It is indeed 130x130 just as ZachLMedia said.

Hikamaru September 25th, 2013 6:24 PM

For staff members as well as Tier 3-5 Supporters, the default size is 150x150. Not sure about Tier 6 Supporters though, although I think theirs is 170x170.

Also, adding to Zach's answer, the 130x130 is also the default avatar size for Tier 1/2 Supporters.

Eevee September 25th, 2013 6:25 PM

One more question. The main rule (unless otherwise stated) for threads is to not post in ones that are more than a month dead. Does this apply to stickied threads such as this one? http://www.pokecommunity.com/showthread.php?t=286731

And also, if a thread is month or more dead, under what circumstances are you able to remake it (if necessary?).

Whoops, that was two questions. Dx

Stickied threads do not fall under the 30 day rule and may be posted it at any time. Also, you are free to remake a thread if it has been more than 30 days since the last post :)

Tsutarja September 25th, 2013 6:28 PM

And to add onto the above post, there are sections here where you can bump past 30 days, but just be sure to check the section's rules to be sure you can do that.

I know that some subforums in Emulation & ROM Hacking, as well as Game Development don't have a revival rule. But check every place to see which sections have revival rules or not, in fact the revival rule may be different in some sections, in that a thread is considered dead after 2 months instead of 1.

Check out the Roleplay Corner, but make sure and read the rules there first.

If you have any other questions regarding roleplay, you can always ask one of the moderators of that forum, Skymin or Magic Fox via Visitor Message or Private Message. They're really nice folks, so I promise they won't bite you.

Hi there! :) Well, to start your own roleplay you should post a sign up thread in the Roleplay Lounge. Then, once you have enough people, you can post your official in-context thread in the Roleplay Corner! Be sure to check out The RPC Rules as they are mostly specific to roleplaying - it tells you what we expect in a thread to approve it.

Before you do that though, it might be a good idea to immerse yourself in the community - talk about your idea in the Roleplay Discussion Thread or maybe join an existing roleplay.

Any questions feel free to PM me! :)

Quick Question in Gen V did any older pokemon from previous gens get a new evo

Nope. In the future, remember this thread is for questions about the site. You should ask a question about gen V in the Q&A thread in the 5th Generation forum.

If you want to like a post, click this button on that post:


If a post is liked by someone else, it'll look like this:


To view who has liked that post, click on the number of likes and a dropdown will appear to show you who has liked it:


When you first like a post, this will appear:


After you reload, it will change to this, as to allow you to unlike that post:


And to view your ten latest likes, scroll to the bottom of your User CP page. You'll also get a notification whenever someone likes your posts, unless you have that turned off in your options.


That option is under Messaging & Notification on your Edit Options page.

Hope this helped :)

From what I know, there is unfortunately so section in which you could post a thread about this. Normally it would fit in Emulation & ROM Hacking or Game Development, but since you have no affiliation with the creation of the game, you will be unable to make a thread about it. This type of thread wouldn't belong in the various Pokemon sections either because they are limited to the main series games. However, if you want to advertise for it you could post a link in your signature or if you were a supporter you could make a blog about it, but honestly I think those are your only options here(and someone correct me if I am wrong.) Hope I helped!

How to create a thread for my hack?

Sirfetch’d October 7th, 2013 10:40 PM

Quote:

Originally Posted by Jésrøñ bans (Post 7871133)

Well first off I will direct you to Emulation and Hacking. This is the forum in which your hack thread would be placed in, and under the subfoum of progressing hacks, I believe. However there are certain requirements you need to meet before posting a hack.

Quote:

Rules for posting hack threads


A note on mature hacks
Hacks with explicit material are allowed, provided a rating is given in the thread title [PG, 15+]., but absolutely NO screenshots or text extracts from it. Such hacks with the aforementioned depiction will not be approved. Likewise, hacks that are unsuitable (for members over 15 years of age) are not eligible for the hack competitions held regularly, such as Hack of the Year.


A hack thread must have at least four screenshots.
These four screens cannot be battle screens, Pokédex entries or stat screens. The screenshots also cannot depict areas that have not been significantly edited. If at least four screenshots meet this requirement, then you may post any other kinds of screenshots. These first four screenshots cannot be map area shots. To elaborate, we'd like to make clear that the four screenshots must be taken from the actual ROM in play. This means no saving a map picture in A-Map and enclosing that as a screenshot. By all means you may include maps, but it will not count as one of the four screenshots necessary for approval.

Also, we do not want to see "I'll post more images once I've got 15 posts". There are plenty of places in PokéCommunity for you to get 15 posts without spamming- surely you can spend SOME time doing so before posting a hack thread.

Hacks must include an introduction or a story.
Optional parts include the game your hack is based off (Pokémon Red, Gold, or Ruby, for instance), a list of features, frequently asked questions, your hack’s achievements (such as Hack of the Year!), a list of bugs, the team involved with the hack, etc.

If you are using other people’s hacks or code bases, you must have permission.
You are required to state whether your hack is yours or not – you cannot post any hack in the Hacks Showcase forum unless it is yours, unless you obtain permission from the hack’s author to post it (and/or modify it for your own purposes). Hacks that we believe are based off the code base of another hack will not be approved.

Fake hacks or theft will not be tolerated.
The hacks you post must not contain any fake information. The images must be screenshots taken in an emulator of your choice, and should not be edited in any form.

Please give credit to any items in your hack where it is due, be it sprites, tile sets or scripts. You are bound to the agreements made by the original poster – for instance, if you cannot give your sprite to others, don’t. If your hack is based off another hack’s code base and the original poster has asked you not to give the code base to others, don’t.

Consecutive posting (double posts) about new features is permitted…
… if you're the thread owner. You may make up to three long posts in a row detailing any information in your game. You cannot make three short (for example, 2 lines only) posts in a row. Any other cases are subject to standard double-posting rules.
Once you meet these requirements you may submit your thread and then wait verification from one of the moderators of that section. If you have any more questions though, I would contact either: DrFuji or giradialkia, the moderators of that section. Hope I helped!

HeavyOctillery October 8th, 2013 7:47 AM

Somehow I figured I'd probably need to go the ol' bliggety-bloggety route with it; I just wanted to make sure. Thanks!:15:

Hesitant to Post Questions on this thread
I have a question I cannot find an answer to.
Topic Breeding Pokemon
Generation VI [Game Y]
I Would Like To Know
  • How to breed with perfect IVs
  • Catch a Ditto with perfect IVs
  • Breed Hidden Abilities in Gen VI (Without either parent having the Hidden Ability)
--------------------------------------
RNG is not possible in Gen VI as of now, nor do I know how to RNG.
I'm looking to understand breeding, and passing down perfect IV's for "Battle Frontier" and Online Play.

For this tutorial can we use the example pokemon be Froakie? For this example I also have a male with its Hidden Ability (Proteon) (and perfect IVs.), Timid Nature as the father. The mother a Ditto. What should I do if I'm looking to be a serious breeder?

moon October 17th, 2013 11:19 PM

Hello Fading Tree, I think you could try posting your question in the Trade Corner Daily Chit-Chat Thread. In the Trade Corner, they usually know about breeding and can hopefully either teach you some or redirect you to places where you can learn more.

There is the Gen V Breeding Guide thread also, which can probably teach you the basics. Too much of that can't have changed between the generations! :] There is a section there on IVs.

I've asked this once before to Wolfy but he wasn't able to find what I was looking for so I'm hoping someone else can. I'm looking for a thread in an archived section of the battle forums from about 3 or 4 years back. If anyone can find the seasonal pokemon tournament thread, I would deeply appreciate it. I really wanna restart the tourney and making up my own list last time made me wanna cry. :l

Griffinbane October 18th, 2013 8:39 AM

Couldn't tell you too much about details. I can tell you that it was gen 4, the thread might have had "official PC tourney" or some variation of it somewhere, they had pokemon divvied up between 4 seasons. I can't see the thread so I can't tell you whether or not that's the right thread. :(

I'd guess you'd put it in a general discussion area, but I don't see too much of a reason to not put it in a group with fangames and such, you're sharing it, and it's not like, illegal because you're not affiliated, you're just advertising for a person you don't know and giving other people something you like so they can like it too

Go on ahead and check out the Trade Corner, specifically the Quick Trade Thread for X and Y or the Quick Trade Thread for Generations IV and V. :)

It's not just you, but rather everyone who tries to access the site. When this happens, it usually means that there's a large spike in traffic to the site. The best thing to do though in situations like this is to just wait it out instead of refresh constantly, since refreshing constantly can actually cause the server to be hung up for longer periods of time.

iTorchwoodi October 24th, 2013 6:18 AM

So i just spent two hours making myself a shop in the trade forum. (It had a picture URL for the top of the page intro)
A message telling me that i had to wait for a moderator to approve before it becomes visible appeared. All well and good every site has it's securities.
I was just hoping by asking about it here the time it takes for approval would reduce as im sure i read somewere about someone posting and it had been weeks and the thread had not shown.
So i'm asking whats the general wait time and how active are the moderators?
I really do hope i have not made that thread without avail.

Any help and information would be appreciated any feedback from a Mod themselves would be highly appreciated

Though I'm not the moderator of the Trade Corner, all I can just say is that you need to be patient, and don't come posting here if you just submitted it. If you don't see your thread in 24 hours or so, then contact either Mac or tabor62 about why your thread may not be approved. They will see your thread, so there isn't a need to post in here immediately after making the thread and sending it to moderation cue. Same with other sections that require thread approval. :)

You would have to wrap [IMG] tags around the link to the animated image. However, you cannot post links in posts until you have reached 15 posts, but that's a small, easy-to-tackle goal that you can reach in just a few minutes! ^_^

As a note when you reach that amount, to get the animated version of this link, you'd wrap it in [IMG][/IMG] tags, like so:

[IMG]http://www.pokecommunity.com/customavatars/avatar434515_1.gif[/img]

so it would show up like this:

You mean sprites? You'll need 15 posts before you can post URLs (which an image counts as such) and then you should be good. Just put the URL between the image tags, which are [IMG*]URL here[/IMG] but without the asterisk.

Thank you, I thought there might have been a tag made by the site, like a smiley or something. I'll have to start posting more frequently then...

Thanks, :)

Is there a way to change our username to another?

Unfortunately right now there is not. The only way to get a change of identity is to create an entirely new account! I'm sorry about that. :/

Hi, sorry to bother you. I was wondering if you could help me if you know anything about Pokemon Roms. I have a problem with my games. When I got them in VBA and saved then came back to play it it was very glitchy and slow. The music was messed up too and it was going slowly when it worked fine on the first go. I also do not see the saved file on the game but the same problem happens. How do I get that to stop happening? I put it on Flash 128K. How do you save on them? I am using in game save. What should I be using? And do I need to unzip files? Do you do that by extracting them? Please help, I will be extremely greatful if you do. I am a beginner in this so please explain everything the best you can. Thank you.

Hello there :)

Yes, you will need to unzip your files before running them. Some ROMs have issues with the in-game save - there is an alternative though! If you click the 'file' menu of VBA you should see a command something along the line of 'save state'. If you save the state, then you can 'load state' next time you want to play at the exact same point (you can even bypass the menu/opening scene).

Hope this helps. If you need more help then you should ask in the Emulation and Hacking forum - the simple questions thread is your best bet.

Moosh November 5th, 2013 2:41 PM

I have a rom hack beta up to the second gym done and my team and I want to post it how do we do this? Also anyone with good scripting and good event skills pm me if you want to help I will tell you what it's about :)

Astinus November 5th, 2013 2:44 PM

Check out the Emulation and ROM Hacking forums for an idea where to go, or even to help find someone to help you with scripting. If you're really unsure, ask DrFuji or giradialkia for some additional help.

Not sure how to post a video in my profile. I had one years ago before I came back but it's been deleted and I'm trying to add a new one the same way but it doesn't seem to be working.

The video link is http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=MOOk3CpSaKs

Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

Heyooo

When you add a Youtube link to the field on your profile, you want to make sure only the end portion is inserted, which in your case would be MOOk3CpSaKs, so it looks like so:

I hope that helps! ^_^

AngelicSpirit November 8th, 2013 3:02 PM

Uhhh... Nooby question alert.

...How do I upload a sig picture? I tried earlier, but it's not working. Could anyone help me? :/

Edit: it worked, but it's a GIF and is supposed to move, but it isn't moving.

Either that or I'm going insane.

moon November 8th, 2013 3:07 PM

Save an image to your computer, upload it to a hosting site on the internet (such as *.com or photobucket.com) and use the image's url inside a [IMG] tag when editing your signature. The button for that looks like this http://www.pokecommunity.com/images/editor/insertimage.gif A gif should work too and move. This works much better than "uploading" a picture to PC imo.

If this was what you meant?

Omg thank you! The mods here are so kind, I'd be lost without them. I'm really grateful for your help! ^w^

If you're wondering why I cut out the little picture icon, the system wouldn't let me post because it was a url. Thanks again! :)

Warrior_Princess November 8th, 2013 4:05 PM

I'm not sure if i can or not but i would like to ask about the value of a pocket monsters card to see if it has any value. Where would i post that?

If you want to ask how much your Pokemon card would be worth then yes, that's doable here! Just check out the "How much is my card worth?" thread in the Pokemon TCG board. Good luck! :)

Hi. I'm just wondering. how to change your thread title?

Nathan November 9th, 2013 3:55 AM

I don't think you can iirc. You have to ask a member of staff, like moderators to change it for you. Like if your thread is in CC&P, ask the moderators here.

Only moderators can do this. Unless you edit the thread title within the first ten minutes of making it--but I'm not sure if that applies here. To do this, press edit and change the thread title, but like I said, only within the first ten minutes.

Aminta November 9th, 2013 3:17 PM

Where should I post that I am looking for a foreign region non-USA Ditto? I don't care about IVs or anything like that, I just want a foreign region Ditto for non-competitive breeding. Everyone who puts Dittos on the GTS wants Xerneas/Yvetal for them and that's just ridiculous.

I was thinking I'd just post in the Quick Trade thread, but I don't know how many people regularly check that.

Yes, the Quick Trade Thread is the place you should go! :) Just be sure though that if you post in the Gen IV/Gen V QTT to specify the generation! :D

Gogoat Rocks! November 10th, 2013 2:58 AM

thanks you JNathan & Yuki's Sword. but now I have another question. how do you put a gif file in your sig? i'm trying to put this in my sig: (I downloaded it) http://images4.wikia.nocookie.net/__cb20130706080604/glee/images/1/1d/Pokemon_Gogoat.gif
Thanks. :)

If you already have the image on the internet, you can try hotlinking by taking that url you have in your post and put that into the IMG tag directly.

Never knew Gogoat could use Vine Whip, haha, you learn something new every day. Looks splendid, go out and take the forum by storm now ;)

~Tentacruel~ November 10th, 2013 5:14 AM

You know I do like the design of this forum. I really do.
But from the very first time I came here until now I always asked myself this question:

Why is that guy in the background picture taking such a close look at Wurmples butt?


-- Matt

moon November 10th, 2013 5:31 AM

That's quite funny actually, but I'm sure he's really looking past the Wurmple and into the beautiful sunset eyeburn. If you are bothered by it though, you can find almost countless other styles for the forum right here: http://www.pokecommunity.com/misc.php?do=styleselector

Yeah, I'm sure that he is, but my brain always went to the buttinspecting. It's still a cool image.

Not at all! It might take a short while to get the hang of it, but I wouldn't worry too much! If you have any questions, feel free to drop me a VM/PM and I'll be more than happy to help! :)

Meganium November 11th, 2013 9:47 PM

Yeah, like James mentioned, it's gonna take some time for a new member like you to get used to a big forum like PC. From my personal experience, it took me about a month or so to get used to it. xD But always remember, if you EVER need any help getting settled or have any questions or concerns, you can always message a staff member in bold blue, orange, or red. They are always there to help. :)

Hikamaru November 11th, 2013 10:43 PM

I know how you feel as well, but as the other two guys mentioned we have people who can help you like staff members, but if there's any chance you're unable to reach them there's more experienced members such as myself and I have been helping out newbies from time to time. Heck it took me months before I was able to fit in, and if you ever need some help don't hesitate to drop me a VM anytime and I'll see what I can do.

PC may be big, but once you learn everything it won't be so scary after all. Adding on to Megan's post, the staff list is over here if you need to reach them quickly, plus it also lists which sections they mod so that way if your question pertains to a certain area you'll know who the best person is to ask. Have fun at PC!

I didn't want to make a new thread just for this small little question so...

Does anyone know how to do the hover text? I want to put it in my sig to show the credit towards the person I'm using the icons from. :[

Use the [title=TEXT] code :) (with ['/title]' at the end).


Hover over this.

Thank you so much! :D I didn't want to use the url link because it's kind of weird to link to someone's LJ when all you want to do is credit with their name. XD

Moosh November 16th, 2013 2:26 AM

Is there a tool that will let me change the effectiveness of moves like how grass is good against water etc. I also need a tool that will let me add a type to the game I need these tools for fire red btw. Thanks in advance :D
