OH BOY OH BOY OH BOY!

CONGRATULATIONS FELLOW MALACHITES! WITH THIS, WE ARE KEEPING THE STREAK ALIVE!

I'm so, SOOO proud of all of you, THANK YOU!

We also have only one more SWSH left to go to FINALLY be able to say that 2021 really was the GREEN YEAR. *Claps furiously*

BUT ALSO!!!
New non-SWSH month? NEW PRE-POLL FOR THE THEME FOR NOVEMBER! Wooooo! https://forums.gpx.plus/index.php?showtopic=78961 if you'd like to vote for a specific theme we should promote for that month. I assure you there are some nice thematic options in there so...

https://forums.gpx.plus/index.php?showtopic=78962! We need your signature in here to try and convince the mods to give us a 4-mon SWSH! It's called Changing Seasons because it involves an All-Deerling SWSH! So, if you are interested in that, be sure to click on the link and follow the rules in there!

Thank you everyone! Go check those threads if you are interested and we'll talk soon enough! :P

And again, CONGRATULATIONS GREEN FAMILY! WOOOOO!


°~°

EDIT:
KRYTIE!!!!!! AAAAAAAAAAAAAAH! I'm so happy to see you around! We've missed you dearly! (not that we didn't like Nick's posts or anything, we just missed you too :'(... Or well, at least I did!) I hope you are feelingmuch much better and that you are fully recovered, and if you aren't then I wish you the best! Thank you!

(Also SUPER sorry for bombing your monthly post, I think I gotta be fast in order to promote other threads too :'D)

ALSO ALSO CONGRATS NOM ON YOUR BIRTHDAY WOOOO!
WE WANT CAKE WE WANT CAKE!!!!!

Welcome back DK! Very glad to see that you're doing better

Congrats to those who managed to hatch a shiny. Sadly, due to sickness and being busy, I did not hatch a shiny. I didn’t get to hatch very many Shroomish but I had fun regardless.

Happy birthday to PokeNOMNOMNOM and an early one to Sam.

And welcome back Darth Krytie!

Glad you're doing better DK!

Congrats to Malachite on another win! This was a very lucrative SWSH for me, so even if my team lost, I still won

Glad to have you back, Krytie!

Fun to see Rookie's SWSH ideas every month, really helps make it more exciting, and brings the community together!

Hey, I didn't realize I shared a birthday with NOM :nomkip:

September was good, regardless of not getting a shiny. Well, here's to a good October!

Might actually have to get me a Tapu egg, too.

I find myself wanting to ask a silly question, but it would be a moot one at best. How can we determine (would you or anyone know) if we signed up for the Pokémon Trainers Club newsletter? I want to say I did... but... ugh... work has been super busy.

Oh! And so! happy to see you are back, Dark Krytie! Glad to see you out and about again.

Congrats, fellow Greenies! I always feel bad when I either fail at the SWSHy or wind up with only 1 shine to help. The race is definitely getting closer with each passing SWSH. A 20 egg difference I think. We've all tried so hard and kudos to all that unearthed that shiny gooy-ness.

I'm not going to be around for a while. Hubby and I are going on a 2 week jaunt. We're getting in the car and driving east. When I get back, work will be beckoning again as we'll have another Board meeting November 1 - 4. Ugly sigh. But I'm hoping to be around after the 19th.

Welcome back, DK! Happy birthday, NOM! Congrats, Malachite! I like Halloween.
Not much more to say I'm afraid, brain's still on vacation.

Good to see you back in the swing of things DK! Am happy to see that you are doing better!

Also, Happy Birthday NOM! Hope you have a wonderful day!

Here is the official steps from https://support.pokemon.com/hc/en-us/articles/360001532353-How-do-I-sign-up-for-the-Pok%C3%A9mon-Trainer-Club-newsletter-or-confirm-that-I-have-signed-up-.
Just login with your information and then under "Edit Profile" you'll see "Marketing Preference" and the option to get emails from them.

To be honest though, I've missed tons of events from them and so have many others, their email thing is super spotty. I made a new account in hopes of getting emails from them, maybe it's a good idea to do that even if you have an account that's set to receive emails. And if you end up getting two codes you can always share one here!

Glad to hear you're doing better DK.

I've been very busy with classes but am trying to make time to get back into GPX.
