April 10th: The bill has been vetoed!
April 2nd: The politicians in Arizona are about to sign into law a bill that would mandate sites like e621 to either impose age verification on all users or be at a risk of lawsuits. Such system would be required to go through third party vendors, who in turn must go through a government database to verify every user's age. This is not only a major violation of privacy, but it also opens up a very real danger of identity theft through phishing schemes and other methods, not to mention that we would not be able to control any of that information to make sure it is permanently deleted after age verification is complete.
Unfortunately, Arizona is the state out of which e621 operates, which means that this law will almost certainly affect us if it is to pass. If want to help us ensure that this site can continue to serve you without being required to know who you are, please ask the Arizona governor to veto this bill.
Please, help us get the word out by letting others know about this issue.
For some further information on what the bill does have a look at https://action.freespeechcoalition.com/bill/arizona-hb-2586/
We still have a Discord server, come talk to us!

MemberSong is Miror B's theme from Pokémon XD: Gales of Darkness which introduced the concept of 'Stealing'(Which really, you're just saving pokemon from abusive or corrupt trainers) another trainers pokemon. Plus your starter is an eevee. Man I miss that game.

MemberAlmost. Pokemon Colosseum was the one to introduce snagging as a mechanic. Granted, I haven't played XD, but Colo came first. There may have been notable differences in how the mechanic played out, I mean. I wouldn't know about that.

MemberNot sure if you're being serious or not...
Just in case, there was a Pokèmon game for the GameCube called "Pokèmon XD: Gales of Darkness" he isn't laughing about it, it's the actual game's name.

MemberThe PokeBall is a good way to kill the animation if someone walks into the room, provided you don't know that the center clicking (clicking the mouse wheel down) on the tab in the top bar closes said tab. Or at least it does in Chrome.
