The March Community thread has been moved here.

If you're new here then don't be shy! The community thread is the place to come and chat with fellow members of the site who share a common interest with you. Talk about whatever you want, whether it's GPX related or something going on in your personal life, just be sure to read the rules first before posting. There's always someone on the forums to read and respond to your posts, so chat away and maybe you'll meet some great people!

Rules

• Regular forum rules still apply here. Basically don't double post. Don't ask for clicks every time you fill your party. Unless it gets out of hand*, I'm okay with you linking to an exploration Pokemon who needs a specific berry.
  
  *out of hand meaning I don't want to see Pokémon being linked just for leveling or if they need drinks for happiness. These kinds of interactions can be handled just fine by being in your parties and signatures.
  
  
• Do not post your shinies here, there's a shiny thread for that. Discussing them is OK though! Just make sure you add content to your post.
  
  
• Make sure your post contains worthwhile content. If you're posting an exploration Pokémon to be fed berries then be sure to add other content to your post. Same with discussing shinies. Find people to reply to or start a discussion yourself! Your post must, with the shiny portion and berry feeding hypothetically removed*, not read as if you're talking to yourself. To clarify, your post should not be an out-loud thought to yourself, and should contain more general discussion than just information on your current shiny luck.
  
  *if you were to read your post, skipping over any mention of shinies, the post should still sound like a good post.
  
  If any posts are found breaking this rule then they will be instantly deleted and handed a 10% warn.
  
  
• Do not post your GPX+ gear grinders in this thread either. There's also a thread for that. This is mostly for raging at staff or site events that you don't like.
  
  
  Hopefully helpful examples! (click to showhide)
  
  Okay:
  Ugh, snow again! D;
  Dragon type for the Poke Hunt again??? ):
  
  An off-handed comment that is in no way malicious like this is fine. You can always add an emoticon to help add to the not serious effect, but that it is only a small annoyance.
  
  Not okay:
  Ugh, snow again! Why can't staff do something to change this!?
  Dragon type for the Poke Hunt again??? This is stupid, someone NEEDS to change this or do something about it.
  Where is the - New Feature - that was suppose to happen? They said it was going to be a month ago, so where is it!?
  
  This is more ragey and is trying to throw shade at the site and staff. Either examples can be thrown in the gear grinder thread just fine, but this kind of anger is what I want to avoid in this thread. I hoped this helped explain.. (:
  
  
  
• Do not litter your post with swear words.
  
  
• Memes and Gifs are allowed, but don't overuse them. If the thread turns into nothing but meme and gif replies, I'll give everyone a 10% warn that was involved because it's just plain out spam! Make sure you put these in a spoiler tag.
  
  
• No quote pyramids! Be sure to cut out everything that was before what you're replying to. They can get long and make a page annoying to scroll through, so be considerate to your fellow members!
  
  
• A post must be AT LEAST one sentence long. If you’re saying hi or bye to someone be sure to add something more to your post.
  
  
• If you'd like to advertise something, then be sure you put it in your signature. Youtube, Deviantart (No smut), Fanfication (No smut), Twitch, adoptable sites, your own minecraft servers are all fine. If you Live stream give a heads up that you're live, but be sure to add content. Don't just link dump. Send a PM if you have any questions about anything else!

Monthly Raffle

Nominations are now gone, and I'm using post count to determine how many entries you have into the raffle. The first 19 posts you have will count as one entry, and every ten after that will count as an extra. Think of it as the first number of your post count is how many entries you have. To see what your post count is, click on the number of replies any certain thread has. Nothing else on the site will influence the amount of entries you receive, so if you'd like a chance to win, then post here frequently!

The raffle is what chooses who gets to choose what's in next month's egg distribution. There are no other site advantages other than that, and even then the whole site gets a chance at that Pokémon that you chose!

Thank heavens that my coworkers don't seem to be interested in playing pranks on April Fools.

Work today is so bloody slow. It has been snowing non-stop since I left for work. It is pretty sloppy outside, on the way over this morning a transport truck was in front of me and the backside of the truck just slid onto the other side of the road. It wouldn't have been so scary if there wasn't a truck on the OTHER side of the road that didn't even bother slowing down! That would have been a lovely thing to start off my day with, a bad accident. I'm glad that nothing happened regardless, accidents are scary.

Joy, my voice is gone hoarse again. I was talking to my coworkers and my voice just gave out *grumbles*. I'll be some glad when I can actually talk without my voice cutting out.

I haven't gotten the chance to start my monthly explorations this month. I'll be going after one of the Regi trio first, probably Regirock. I'm off work the weekend so I have plenty of time to get started.

Also Korechu is adorable, can't wait to get one .

Talking about April Fools pranks at the office... my radio station DJs were asking for ideas that they could do to their co-workers. One caller suggested something very, very mean. Mercifully, one of the women on the DJs staff was like... no way! We can't do that!! So the guy offered this instead:

Pack up your own desk and tell everyone that you quit.

Yeah, his original idea was to pack up someone else's desk and, when they came in, give them a forlorn, apologetic look, and tell them that they've been fired. Yeah. Ouch! That IS mean!

I've now come across a regular Hoopa and the Unbound Hoopa. They're! So! KEWL!! I'm making sure to keep a spot (or two) open on the off chance that. And that new little critter.... the cute lil blue guy... he's so! Adorable! I just wanna huggle and snuggle with him!! I hope GPX doesn't make me wait forever to luck into one of those. *wistful sigh*

Speaking of April Fools, I saw a small icon on the play bar on YouTube today. I clicked on it, and it led me to a thing about "Snoopavision".

I have a feeling that this is an April Fools' joke, but that won't stop me from checking out an old Homestuck animation with the (likely fake) 360* vision.

Anyways, as for GPX Plus, I'm on the last part of the exploration, which has a task that just requires luck to get a certain item.

EDIT: Yep, it's fake. I did the icon, and it redirected me to the Snoopavision video again.

Oh well... I didn't meet anyone of my acquaintances today, so neither could I prank anyone, nor could I get pranked. Don't know whether to be sad or happy.

And 28 Korechus already? That's a lot of a specific header events today. I can't wait to get a Korechu, so much so, that I am surfing from one page to other in hopes of getting one. Header reminds me, did anyone get a portal yet?

@Mamanator That'd have been really cruel. Like the person would have got the scare of their life until to know it was a silly prank. Good that didn't happen.

Today I thought Hot Topic was serious about their new Golden Girls clothing line smh

Wow just got a prankster. That was cool

Super excited about the new novelty mon, leaves me more stuff to grab.

GPX+ decided for an April Fools joke, it would nom my silver wing...ah well, better luck next time, I guess.

Still no idea what's going on with the Korechu other than it being like old man and manaphy apparently...
Not sure what the requirements for it to show up are, though o_O

There are new Novelty Pokemon!? I have to check them out!

Anyways, I'm not doing anything for April Fools, as usual. I'm not the prankster type of person.

The same requirement as any other header event. Be active, interact, surf through pages.

Anyway, I got Korechu already. Next time I'll "Not Look" to see what happens.

I didn't mention it last time but it's a good thing I reread the dates for the distribution because I'm used to seeing them start on the 2nd. I'm hoping I end up getting the Hoopa. If not, I'm not sure which one I'll get instead.

I thought about pranking my sister but I can't think of anything right now. Also has anyone read about that mic drop prank that Gmail had to take down?

No? I only saw their silly 'Google Cardboard Plastic' thing. By the time I get up most of the fun's already happened.

Yeah they say there's this new thing called Korechu but... idk anything about it
April 1st will be over here in 4 hrs but due to time zones and internet it'll carry over through around.... 10 tomorrow I guess? Or maybe even 12 o_o

Korechu? It sounds like a Novelty Pikachu. But it could also be another Novelty Pichu or a Novelty Raichu, or even all three.

I just googled it and I found this
unofficialpokemon.wikia.com/wiki/Korechu

Looks like a Shinx Prototype to me tbh

Or none of the above. Mine is still in my Party, if'n you want to look.

Wasn't Korechu a April Fools thing for Hey You Pikachu or something like that?

Anyways, gotta head to work soon. I'm a little curious if April Fools day will be a thing with my Coworkers. Due to reasons I don't think it will be but anything could happen.

I had a regular gift me some cool looking colored duck tape yesterday. All is well in my world.

It was. I remembered that as soon as I saw it, which is why I thought it was so fitting! It's like, 11 years old now, I don't know how anyone remembered it.

I do my research.

Haha, well done. It's a cute sprite, by the way!

I just saw this and I wanted to remind everyone - Jirachi is being distributed via the Nintendo Network to all the Gen VI games right now! It only runs until April 24th, so best to do it now and not forget about it.

Wow. From what I saw on the page, the joke pulled by each Pokemon website ticked off a lot of fans.
