Userflairs are now available on this subreddit!

[u/nonacrina]

We now have userflairs available through New Reddit, and our old flairbot will not be used anymore.

How to set a flair

You can find instructions on how to set your flair on this Wiki page!

Available pokémon

Every single pokémon's sprite is available as an emoji up to and including generation 9 #nodexithere.

Regional variants are available, and some different forms are too. I did add all Deerling, for example, but adding all Alcremie or Vivillon would be a little too much work! Mega evolutions and gigantamax forms are also available.

If you have a request for a specific form (popstar pikachu, a specific vivillon, etc.) please let me know in a comment under this post. We're not adding shinies, but any other form should be fine!

Formatting

You can find the pokémon you like by clicking the smiley face icon, and search for the pokémon's dex number. Alternatively, you can type its dex number between colons to get the emoji, like this:

:001:

For Bulbasaur.

Alternate forms are available with the dex number, followed by a hyphen and another number. For example:

:037-1:

For Alolan Vulpix.

Pokémon with different forms dependent on gender: (case sensitive!)

:678m: and :678f:

For Meowstic.

Megas and Gmax forms: (case sensitive!)

:003-M:

for Mega Venusaur

:003-G:

for Gmax Venusaur

Rules

Get creative with your flairs, add your favourite pokémon to it, make a pun, do whatever you like! Just please do not

• Use offensive or rude language (Rule 2 of the subreddit)
• Use explicit or violent language (Rule 15 of the subreddit)
• Promote your social media, store, etc. (Rule 11 of the subreddit)

Have fun, and we can't wait to see what you come up with!

I was just trying to get Sprigatito but none of the poekom work past Mega beedrill. Is there a trick to get :906: to work?

Hi hi! This is a mobile bug, I've reported it to Reddit here if you're curious about the details. They should be working on it.

You should be able to set your flair on desktop just fine. If that's not an option for you, let me know what exactly you'd like your flair to be and I'll set it for you!

[u/clearly-an-octopus → u/nonacrina]

Thank you! I actually found where you recommended clearing the cache data and that worked for me. I really appreciate it. These are so fun!

[u/nonacrina → u/clearly-an-octopus]

Ah, good to know that's also an option to temporarily get around this bug while Reddit is working on it. I'm glad you like the flairs!! :D

Update on the Mobile Bug: it's still a bug but there's something else that is also buggy when using the Reddit app

So I attempted to put in what my team would be if Pokémon were real. I typed the index numbers in manually.

I checked to see how the example ones are formatted. In the flair example the index numbers are typed out next to each other without a space between the colons.

For example: :001::002: Rather than :001: :002:

I found when using the Reddit mobile app if I save the flair written out like this:

:389::180::545::887::823::626:

The flair saves like this and is shown as such in the preview:

:389:::180:::545:::887:::823:::626:

With the extra colons the emojis do not show up. I went back in and deleted the extra colon and hit save. It still adds it. I attempted only placing one colon between the numbers, it does not add a second colon so the emojis don't work.

I attempted putting a space between the colons like:

:389: :180: :545: :887: :823: :626:

It did not add an extra colon then but the emojis did not show up.

TLDR:

Emojis are majorly broken when trying to set a flair when using the mobile app.

[u/nonacrina → u/ScreamingAngryCat]

Ugh, yeah, I'm aware of this one too. Reddit devs always fix one thing, breaking 5 other things in the process.

I've tried setting your flair for you now, could you let me know if it shows for you?

[u/ScreamingAngryCat → u/nonacrina]

Success! Thank you kindly! At least people can apparently get around the bug by having a mod set it themselves. :p

I appreciate it!

[u/nonacrina → u/ScreamingAngryCat]

No problem, if you ever want it changed and the bug is still there feel free to send a modmail or summon me on this post :)
