Best PC memory
 
What is one of your most fond memories of the site? What future memories do you hope to make here?

TY March 4th, 2018 7:08 AM

From meeting many people to getting my very first actual relationship, moderating Video Games, "Twirly" and so on... there's too many to count tbh.

Future memories idk...

Somewhere_ March 4th, 2018 7:22 AM

In no particular order:
-the 2015 summer get-together
-my personal Skype group with other PC members
-my friends
-hyping up new pokemon games
-a bunch of other things too

One of my best moments here was when the battle server had a power party and we promoted everyone to admin and did force renames and kicked for the fun of it. Aaaa good times.

Mawa March 4th, 2018 6:02 PM

The club section, all the friends I''ve made here, and the trade section when I first came here. They helped me so much with my pokedex completion back in XY!

Sonata March 4th, 2018 6:32 PM

learning how to roleplay.
spending hours on the og dubtrack before it got taken down due to insufficient funding.
modding the treehouse alongside chase and larry.


some day i hope to come back to modding and maybe even get up to smod.

Taemin March 4th, 2018 11:34 PM

Hmmm.. Way back when I was really new and fanclubs were still a huge thing, I joined a couple of Pokemon-based clubs and talked with a few friends over these topics all day. We had some good times.

Also, I remember a couple specific staff theme collabs that we had quite a bit of fun with setting up, and picking characters, and those moments have always stuck out to me. I wanna say that both were KH or FF related, but a lot of them were fun. lol

Definitely the Minecraft UHCs we did a few years ago.

Taemin March 5th, 2018 4:24 PM

Aaaah, I forgot to mention the B&W pre-release and how hype the forum and blogs were about it. Those were good times.

Cherrim March 5th, 2018 4:32 PM

Honestly, any time a thread like this pops up because it's one of the best things in the world to see just the huge range of things people found memorable about this place over the years.

Bidoof FTW March 5th, 2018 6:30 PM

my times in the battle server are some of my favorite memories, mostly around holidays when chat was always full or spending time with Kanzler and Amanda, kinda sad that it's dead now honestly.

My first game of mafia when the UG was still a subforum. I remember I was incredibly interested and would check my phone every 10 minutes to see what was happening. Also the first summer of the UG being a true forum, people would spend time on epicmafia and in skype voice calls and it was a true blast :)

Movie nights at any GT is a pretty fun ride as well

I hope to have some more fun with mafia and hopefully the battle server will liven up again, we had got a couple tournaments running a month or so ago and it was a blast.

colours March 5th, 2018 9:32 PM

i feel like a lot of my better memories will always be with the battle server. despite how tucked away it is, one would be surprised at the enriched history the battle server used to have. it used to thrive back in the day, and we used to have such a cohesive community with so many regulars. tournaments would be held on the regular, and there would be so many in-jokes and drama and all around just fun (and not so fun, but still memorable) stuff that really made being on the battle server worth it.

really, being battle server staff was probably one of the most memorable times i've ever had on PC, and it's also where i've met fantastic people like chase and sophie and so many others. even now, i long to re-live those memories.

Cay March 5th, 2018 10:32 PM

vf fucking c

Syndrome March 5th, 2018 10:47 PM

somehow getting unbanned + battle server pals

professor plum March 6th, 2018 1:42 AM

Hmm.

This might sound silly, but one of my favorite memories was the 2010 Slowpoke April Fools theme. (Also shout out to that style rip) Oh - and the 2009 Todoroki gag was p good, too.

My favorite memories, though, were probably made on the IRC chat, from #pokecommunity to #thepokecommunity, to the billion spin-off channels we had on there (#pie, #heaven, etc.). I really am grateful for the friends I met on there 10+ years ago that I still occasionally keep in touch with.

(Also being modded was a fun memory, too, I guess)

I was literally looking at the reaction thread to that april fool's last night because I was going through Jolene's posts. She got so mad that we did April Fools late and changed her sig to a Christmas sig year-round and never gave up that grudge.

Good times.

Ryoutarou March 6th, 2018 10:16 PM

I was personally quite fond of Todoroki and Todoroki's Revenge. Wasn't an active member during the time of the latter, but it sounds like a frustratingly charming prank.

Aslan March 7th, 2018 3:21 PM

I would also say the battle server, especially from 2012 - 2013! I will never forget Nica trying to persuade us all into playing Gen 5 NU and cursing Liepard ahaha. But really, I have met so many of my super close friends there, who I am still friends with now even if some of them don't come to PC as much anymore. There are also people who aren't active here now who I remember having loved spending time with including woohoo, Cid, Jake (music note), Jin, Amanda, Dash, Glitch etc. From Winter Wonderland battles, to just general chat shenanigans, modding the server + the time me and Chase somehow won one of the GT Battle Server tournaments by just spamming random battles (I don't even know how), I'll always remember the battle server as one of the best things about PC. Whilst I've fallen out of the loop with it in the last two or so years, I really do cherish it because it was the place I spent a lot of my time in from 5th grade up to about 9th grade. Even now, I still go on sometimes as I'm progressing through the 11th grade. So that's pretty cool.

Another one of my favourite memories would have to be the Pokecommunity GTs! Especially the Pokemon Movie Nights which had many iconic moments and was just generally always a really fun way to chill out. Also iSketch was always fun + random games of Cards Against Humanity. Overall, I have really fond memories of PC and I'm sure there are more that I could mention but those are the ones that came to mind.

Our 100 VMs in a row might be the best pc memory tbh. Even better than the BS memories 8D

Mana March 8th, 2018 10:54 AM

My favourite memories mostly stem around the modding RPT, playing lots of mafia games (and particularly GMing, which I think I was probably better at :c) and also my stint as an smod. The day of my promotion I was so over the moon, some people had suggested it might happen for me but I was pretty unsure it would haha.
