    Just need to point out. BMGf still has the Conflict Review Board for all complaints. o3o

    That aside, each Pokemon fansite has it's on thing going for it.That's why the fandom is so diffuse lol.

    The rivalry is not much of one. It's just jaded folks who land here from BGMf or SPPf, both of those are pretty rough. Smogon and PE2k can be relatively unfriendly as well. I still despise Smogon personally, they're like all competitive battlers who typically are not too friendly about it when you just want to have FUN and find their rules too stiff and dull.

    Different communities are different. The environment is different here and there, and that goes for every forum. You can't really compare forums, in my opinion, because the way you feel about certain forums and the environments they establish reflect your personality. If you like it at PC, then you like the way things are run at PC. If you like it at Smogon, then you like the way they're run at Smogon.

    Obviously everyone here prefers PC or likes it enough to want to be here. I don't really see other forums as 'rivals' because there's really nothing to compete over...

    Well, Smogon does use exactly the same forum layout as PC, you can tell from looking at it, but it also has Pokemon reviews and a move database and all that stuff. On the other hand, Smogon seems to be more about the aspects of the game than the members actually interacting with each other, which is a bad thing from my point of view. I still much prefer PC, but sometimes I'll look at a Smogon analysis for a moveset. Smogon is like the strict, no-nonsense teacher, where PC is more the happy-go-lucky, fun-loving child.

    Not really. PC seems sort of isolated from other pokemon forums.

    Btw, the whole *****y rivalry between Serebii and Bulbagarden began around 2003, with Serebii's servers going down and a whole argument about it with Archaic.

    Closing this before this continues to have members who feel the need to repeat something that's been stated 20+ times.
