I'm glad you asked! The pictures come from a service called Gravatar.

Click the link above to go there and signup using the same email as you did for here. Then you can upload an "avatar". It will get automatically detected and on the "My Account" page you can choose to display the avatar.

Um, isn't there a way WITHOUT having to sign up on Gravatar?
That is the system this site uses for getting a profile picture, so its the only way!
Um, this doesn't work for me. I made an account, and added my email address that I used for pokemondb.net to make an account, but I still don't have a pic. Help?
Make sure you open the link on the confirmation email
but how do you upload the gravitar?
what the heak it doesnt work
What are you having trouble with Eelektrossdude?
You have to make an account with Gravatar first, upload a picture, and select a Rated G rating; it will take one or two days to show up on the Pokebase.
it doesnt take days :D but it take like 5-10 mins
make sure you're going to the website where you got your image from, then copy the URL, (bar above) and paste it into the url box, unless it's on your desktop or somewhere else.
does it cost money?
