April Community Thread!

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.
  
  

  
  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!

Korechu looks so adorable! I can't wait until I can find one.

I was able to complete the Zygarde exploration and hatched two shinies within an hour or so of each other. I'm hoping that wasn't a prank.

[Dr Electric]

EDIT - I just came across the Prankster.

EDIT² - And it seems like I have one of the, if not the very first, first Korechu? The Stats page is slightly off, since I've hatched mine, but it still says that one user has an egg, and there aren't any pokemon yet.

EDIT 3 - Last Edit didn't flow well. So I added a word.

Oh, Korechu is so cute in actual. Plus, well... Electric! I'd really like to see how the shiny form looks like and maybe even hunt it (though, mini-event based hunts are the second toughest hunts after special monthly explorations pokemons). At least I can hope for a shiny Korechu someday, far away....

Oh, and the stats page is definitely off a bit. Quite a few moments after getting my Hoopa egg, the stats page showed 0 users have a Hoopa egg.

[Shaoo]

Happy April!
So Hoopa is not a joke? So great!! Thann you guys!!
I'm gonna try for this one.
What is this prison-thing for, do we know it already or miss I the description on a previous post?

My throat hurts it's terrible :-(

Prison bottle is most probably for changing the form of Hoopa (Confined) to Hoopa (Unbound). Can't confirm unless someone actually uses it, but everything fits in perfectly.

Oh, sad to hear that. Get well soon.

[D E A N]

It was brought up in the March thread.

Chocolate Miltank

EDIT - I just came across the Prankster.

EDIT² - And it seems like I have one of the, if not the very first, first Korechu? The Stats page is slightly off, since I've hatched mine, but it still says that one user has an egg, and there aren't any pokemon yet.

Thank you for the link. I very happy to see that it's supposed to be like that. It sure helps if you want to shiny hunt it ^^,

Congrats on your Korechu! She is real pretty Do you have had an empty slot to run into Prankster? Or is the header event rules changed?

[WhitCake]

So exciting! So much going on. Hoping I get a prankster!

[Hitaka5Ever]

Thats so cool about choco miltank! that makes shiny hunting easier! i have 3 choco bars that i can just sell next year i guess :)

[Dr Electric]

Just hatched a Hoopa. It's probably the first Hoopa of the site and the sprite (both forms) looks so cool. Whoever made that one, you did a great job! And yeah, Prison bottle does make it unbounded. And the bases stats of Unbound? That's unique and well... weird. All the surprises packed in a box.

While talking about it, who sprited Korechu? NOM NOM?

Thats so cool about choco miltank! that makes shiny hunting easier! i have 3 choco bars that i can just sell next year i guess

Why next year? Is it that experiment where you check how many items you gather in one year? (I forgot who was doing that)

EIDT: Realised two pages later that I messed up with my sentence.

I'm pretty glad that one of the scenario that I talked about yesterday regarding April's Fool came to life. In fact it does sense considering how Hoopa is portrayed. I'll go back to sleep now, see you in 2 hours.

[Fujiki Yuusaku]

OMG Hoopa!!!!!!! So cool!!!!!!!!! Oh and congratulations to those who won the shiny hunt!

yes that was me it has actually been far easier to NOT sell my unwanted items than i thought it would be lol

That's it, I'm spending the whole day with 5 eggs in my party to make sure I don't forget the first day of distributions as usual. Korechu is adorable, and I need it ASAP. Is it breedable?

The traditional April Fool's prank on the local radio news hits a nerve more than usual this year. Maybe the terrible economic situation and the constant political bickering has made us all very cynical. (They took a common demand for public service and are pretending the government is giving us the biggest possible means of achieving that. Usually, the prank isn't even related to reality)

[Dr Electric]

Unfortunately, no. Like any other header event novelty, it has no egg group and isn't, hence, breedable.

[vlinder]

New to the thread? Yes. Shy? Tiny bit.
But I figured let's post anyway since I've been lurking the community threads for a while now.

Also wanted to add that korechu is very cute!
I would love to shiny hunt it, but I'm not gonna hurt myself by hunting an egg only available through header event. I find shiny novelty hunting hurtful enough already (I haven't got a shiny novelty, but a winter vulpix hunt that I've been on for a while)

[Asbel Lhant]

So I caved last night and used my Legend Voucher Plus and got myself a Hoopa egg. I have no self control whatsoever XD. It hatched already, which I'm pretty surprised about, and it has good IVs too(it has 130).

Well time to get ready for work. I still have a pretty hoarse voice, hope they don't put me on cash because I sound horrible xD.

[SilverPT]

Well I'm definitely going for Hoopa today. I've already set an alarm to remind me to free a slot in my party. And then I'll just have to wait for some luck regarding another Hoopa and Korechu. I wonder if there's going to be an exploration for Prison Bottle (and since we're at it, DNA Splicers) or if it's another case of Light/Dark Stones (which I really hope it's not).

I didn't win the shiny hunt, what was the prize exactly? Korechu voucher or something? Also I see the chocolate is in the prize shop now, will the shears be there too? I've been checking for the shears every day for the last week but it hasn't popped up yet.

I don't think Shears have been added so your best bet is to hatch Mareep eggs to get one.
No, the prize was a Prison Bottle, linked to Hoopa.

Korechu is apparently a new header event or something from what I've read? Don't quote me on that, though.

Hey cool! Shaymin!
(Now to hope it isn't a joke T__T)

I guess welcome to April everyone...
April 1st is the longest day cause on social media it starts around 5pm my time on march 31st (due to japan)
and ends on April 2nd, 12:01PM my time (due to USA)

I just noticed I got my pokehunt result back as well

It placed in rank 2.
You received 6 prize points. Go to the Prize Shop now to spend them!

Now I have 54 prize pts, should be enough for a couple Blue Stones.

I don't notice anything to be different in my inventory so I guess prize wasn't released yet?

Also guys watch out since the admins and mods (and their besties) prolly gonna pull some prank on us. :P
N-A is pretty big on pranks....
