Hey there fedi admins!

As donphan.social is a Pokémon-themed instance, I decided a few years ago that every single Pokémon icon should be available on here! ​ ​ ​

I’ve noticed that some servers over time chose to copy some or all of them. I don’t own the copyright on Pokémon so I can’t put a license of them, but by courtesy it would be really nice to credit me and donphan.social, as adapting them all so that they look good on Masto, and importing them all took a LOT of work.

If you want to import them easily on Masto with tootctl, I made an archive you can download here: http://demiboy.online/donphan_pokemon_emojis_2021.tar.gz

It contains all the Pokémon so far, up to the Sword and Shield DLCs.

Hope you enjoy them, and once again please credit me if you use them!

It'd look something... like this!

Anyway, I don't mean to rant. This feels like a situation in which it needed to be said. I honestly think the community just needs to be aware.

Speaking of: please respect their identity. I know that sounds silly, but there seems to be(?) a tendency to assume they're only doing it because they're scared or something. That's not your call, and if you don't consider it "real", you're not helping. I get how this can happen, just be mindful.

I KNOW we can be better.

I think a major part of this problem is that it's rare enough to encourage the bystander effect. If someone wants to revert, they're likely going to feel like a "traitor" and they're definitely gonna be treated like one if they're vocal. I beg you to go the extra mile and ASK if they're okay. Like, how would they know you're safe to talk to?
