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!

MemberAmusingly, Nidorina and nidoqueen aren't able to produce offspring.
They also are of the poison type so they are immune to introduced toxins.
IE: unprotected go!

MemberNot something to worry about with other species anyway.

MemberI spoiled this for good reason.
While pregnancy is not something to worry about, pathogens can be passed. While other species won't pass their sicknesses to humans and humans won't pass their sickness to other species, there can be benign bacteria or dormant "cultures" that are completely harmless to the host, but can cause lots of trouble to a species who has no natural immunity to it. And before you ask, eating and sexual fluid mixture are two different things and introduce pathogens in completely different ways.
That said, there isn't anything saying pokemon CAN'T reproduce with humans, especially when the rule is that the female will give birth to her species and that marriage was a commonplace thing. Still, Nidoqueen IS one of the few who can't reproduce, but that can make things more interesting.
Sorrowless
MemberTrue, true. It does make you wonder if they are compatible with humans.
