At the moment, none. Though I have thought about creating one. If I were to, I'd only create one.

I have two alt accounts, SilverSmeargleSplatter and Petilil. The first to preserve the first username I came here with, and the second...should be obvious. lol

I just have my original account, nayana_1120. Don't really use it; if I do it's to log on to look at PC when I don't want to be on my main. I don't see a need for any more accounts than that, so I don't see me making another account in the future. ^^;

I'll make a proper signature when Pokecommunity gets a proper slogan

Probably 2. But IIRC, way WAAAAAAAAAAAY back like maybe 6 or 7 years ago, I was registered here. Not telling you what I was probably (Hey, it's been 7 years, but I know what names I used to use, but I may be remembering it wrong) named.

Anywho, I had my first account years and years ago, when I was a complete and total noob, zero knowledge of internet culture, zero knowledge of how to make a proper post or just be a good poster in general. The second was last year, when I was still sort of a noob, under Ice Car. Which I returned to recently because I felt like participating in a pokemon community again.

At that time though I was getting sort of sick of my current name and having to explain to everyone what it is, so I asked for a name change, and was told you had to make a new account, which you were allowed to make as many as you like as long as you weren't impersonating anyone. So I did, under this name. I'm glad I can have two accounts, if I find this name change to be a mistake I can just revert to my old account or whatever.

I have no alt. accounts. I don't want an alt. account, and I don't plan to get an alt. account. Having an alt. account seems confusing, and pointless because that's just wasting a PC account.
This. I don't have one, and don't plan to get one anytime soon. Plus that's unnecessary account detail remembering like associated username, email, and password. >_>

Oh, and the instant I saw this thread title, I thought of Forever's insane amount that she posted in The Count to Infinity thread one time. Expectantly, she also posted in here as well. XD

Just one. I believe that it's silly to have more than one Alt account unless you're on staff and have a need for more than one account. For example to test something like permissions, or a new forum feature.

I also believe that it's not quite right that most people won't mention their mains on their alts, but that's really a minor thing, and sometimes it's better for them to hide under the alt so long as they're respectful of the rules. I.E. not sockpuppeting.

But of course, this is just me.
yeah I think exactly the same. It irritates me when people swap to their alts with no warning or not even stating their old account in their profile. And I don't see any use for myself to get an alt. Unless it is needed for testing idk why anyone would bother making one. Just stealing usernames if you ask me :/

None, though I've been weighing whether to get one or not for awhile now. At most, I'd use it for testing themes and profile layouts. I don't think I'd use it to do much posting.

Here in PC, and almost everywhere too, I have only one account.

I really see no point in keeping more than one account.
Of course, if there is a good reason, like the works of the staff, then it's okay.
Otherwise, you really don't need one, and these are mostly used for sock-puppetry and confusing people. Why would someone feel the need to do that?

This Pwnyta Jockey username is my second ever account here. I`ve been here at Pokecommunity for a few years. Just tired of my previous account due to boredom with its name and lack of the choice-chance to change it as that thingy where I could was removed for the better.

Rarely post, rarely use my other one here.

I have more alternates with kingdomofloathing. My main-first and another two for a total of three KoL accounts.
