October Community Thread!


The September Community thread has been moved http://forums.gpx.plus/index.php?showtopic=75062

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!

RulesMonthly 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!

October Egg Distribution!


How to get an egg from this eventIMPORTANT EVENT NOTES
  1. No, you do NOT have to be online at the time I am sending out eggs.
  2. These eggs do NOT show up in the Lab for the event. They are sent out randomly.
  3. There is ONE set shiny for each Pokémon, but every other egg has a regular chance of being shiny.
  4. If you obtain ONE of the eggs from this event, you will NOT be able to obtain another one from this same event. This means if you get an egg on day 1 of this event, you can't get an event egg from any other day during this event. By the way, abandoning an event egg does nothing. So if you get one you might as well keep it and be happy.
  5. If we find any accounts being made just to get eggs from the event then they will be immediately banned along with your main.
  6. If you were a winner of the raffle, your chosen Pokémon will be spawned into your party on the day of the event. It won't be forced shiny, but there's always a small chance just like any other egg! This will not count as an event egg and you can still receive one from the event.
  7. There is no guarantee that you'll receive an egg.
  8. Eggs chosen will not be available to pick from again for 3 months. If x egg was in the January egg distribution, then it can not be chosen again until April.
  9. The event runs at 4 p.m. server time.

It's October! Objectively the best month of the year! Maybe I can get my shiny Noibat this month, that would be fun. I'll be going for Tapu Lele and Genesect... hopefully I can clear my party of these exploration pokes.

Posted by: Shadow Fennekin Sep 30 2017, 11:01 PM

Think I'll pass on Lele in case people are wanting it, but I'll try for all the others.
Hope I get an egg this time. lol

Posted by: Comfey Sep 30 2017, 11:09 PM

My goodness! Lele eggs on the 2nd? Darkrai eggs on the 5th? My trinket's been accepted!? And I finally bought a legend voucher and got a Koko egg! This month is gonna be great, and I'm really hoping to get a Lele egg in the chance that it'll be shiny!

EDIT: Having trouble staying logged in, right now. Server's being overloaded, I'm assuming. Anyone else?

Posted by: Luneon Sep 30 2017, 11:11 PM

I'm so surprised that Cosmog wasn't picked due to how popular it is oh.gif
That must mean enough people managed to get it the regular way!

October isn't my favorite month but a figure I've ordered gets released in November so on the bright side, October is one month closer to receiving that cutie <3
I hope to get a shiny rockruff this month. (Or manage to obtain the 1000 eggs achievement that I don't have just yet.)

Posted by: Synx Itax Sep 30 2017, 11:11 PM

October is here, and that's so weird. Guess it's time to put out some pumpkins and other decorations! I just can't wait for the weather to start cooling down... which takes a good while here.

Not sure what I'll go for in regards to the giveaway, but I guess I don't particularly care which one I get (if any; I didn't even get one last month). Perhaps I'll try for Reshiram.

Posted by: Asbel Lhant Sep 30 2017, 11:11 PM

October already? Wow this year has been flying past, bring on the spooks! Oh man, I need to get Tapu Lele, I'm keeping my party open and hope I get that one. I'm happy that I finished the SWSH with 3 shinies this time, I'll enjoy the prize.

Thanks for all the comments about my aunt. She's going to hopefully be let out of the hospital sometime this week. The surgery went very well and she's recovering exceptionally fast. She'll hopefully be back in town sometime next week.

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Sep 30 2017, 11:19 PM

Wow, with the exception of Kyogre, I don't even have the Egg dex entries for any of those other Pokemon. It seems I need to up my Exploration game! And yay, October. Time to open those 100+ Trinket boxes I've collected within the past month and hope that my phone doesn't crash while I'm doing so.

Posted by: pumpkinking0192 Sep 30 2017, 11:39 PM

Any word on what the SWSH reward is? I didn't manage to hatch a shiny in time and I don't see anything new to buy in the Prize Shop yet.

Fig dish! Fig dish! Fig dish!

I knew I was forgetting somebody! *wails*

Of course I haven't gotten Cosmog because the stupid prankster refuses to leave my header. Gah! I need to set a Pokemon after him to scare him off. Ha'rumph! Maybe next month a winner will think of Cosmog and help us out some. Sheesh!


Anyway... thank you, GPX, for the random selection that included me! *happy dances* Tapu Lele was actually one of my choices so it's good to see I wasn't alone. If luck favors me.... perhaps I can still win me one on the 2nd. Considering I'll be drilled and shot full of Novocaine by my dentist... a pleasant surprise of Lele would not be turned down by me. wink.gif wink.gif

In other news... I finished watching LOST through Netflix. Rumors were right. The first season was the best and I think I figured out what it was all about by the last episode. It was actually a kind of scary story, polar bears not withstanding, if you think about the big picture it was telling. It made me smile, though, watching SUPERNATURAL'S Lucifer trying to be a good guy. And so many of the actors went on to other roles that defined them. Guess LOST was a great spring board for them. Now I'm re-watching Reign (Netflix) so that I can watch season 4. It's been so long so I'm on season 1 and enjoying the Bash Candy. *smirk*

In gaming news... I brought the Silver and Gold downloadable games and gave the Silver code to my college bound kid and kept the Gold for me. My youngest, Allison, got me hooked on Monster Hunter Stories. I played the free download and loved it so much I went to GameStop and brought myself the game and got a download code for some in game accessories my youngest tells me are legendary eggs. The game is kind of - but not really quite like - Pokemon. You battle monsters, you raid their nests, you hatch their eggs, and you train the monster up by battling other monsters. I love it!! I blame Pokemon... but I still love it.

Also got my Ultra Sun and Ultra Moon on layaway at GameStop. Man! That store loves my family! Talk about seeing a sucker! LOL

But for now it's getting late and I have to go see what the SWSHY prize was that I have to buy. 2nd time I failed at the SWSH since coming back. I don't like this failure feeling. Hopefully I'll hatch a shiny Pikachu Wannabe soon though. If it's only a matter of time then I'm really close to my egg count expectation for it to be a shiny. Right? LOL

Darth mentioned in the Month of October thread that it's not done yet but it should be available pretty soon.

Hard to believe that it's October already! This year has been flying by!

I'm working on the Keldeo exploration first, so could you pleaee feed Suicune here a Pecha Berry?

Posted by: YoRHa No9 Type S Sep 30 2017, 11:45 PM

SWSH reward is a Zygarde Voucher. No idea which forme it gives.

Posted by: eludicatorflame Oct 1 2017, 12:04 AM

On the bright side of not finishing the swsh, at least now I can actually hunt a ghost-type on october hehe (still need to get a shiny mimikyu)

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Oct 1 2017, 12:07 AM

Speaking of Cosmog, for a few seconds I was actually considering picking it..then I decided to hold off because I was wondering whether or not somebody had already chosen it for this month. By the looks of things, I guess that no one did. Oops?

EDIT: Meant did, not was. I cannot language when I'm tired.

Posted by: Rita Zyon Oct 1 2017, 12:09 AM

October already? Can't believe one month is already done for the new school year. I don't know which egg to go for since I think I have all of them. I will probably just keep my party open then. In terms of explorations I know I need azelf still, though need to finish that burning desire first.

Posted by: Zuzu Oct 1 2017, 12:14 AM

Didn't managed to hatch my (supposed to be) third shiny for the SWSH, but that's okay. I wonder what Zygarde forme the voucher will give, can't wait. Also, I think I'll go with Tapu Lele in this month's egg distribution.

Posted by: Mamanator Oct 1 2017, 01:21 AM

Zygarde forms? Ooooo! Neat! How I hope it'll be no more than 30 per voucher, but gah! I"m fearing it'll be 50. Aren't there like... a lot of forms for Zygarde? I haven't played all the way through to know. I think I'm working on my second trial or... closing in on that in the game. LOL

Posted by: miu Oct 1 2017, 01:21 AM

Hey guys, guess who hatched two hours after the SWSH ended?
-shiny link removed-

So because of timezone differences, it's actually about 9:30 AM here; last night after getting the eggs from the Shelter, I actually thought, hey what if one of these is actually shiny, should I wake up before 7 AM on a Sunday morning just to be disappointed it's not? And decided against it and just sleep in, 'cause it's Sunday, you know? Haha well at least I managed to get my Alolan Rattata on time, and not drag my Cutiefly hunt like I am with Rockruff from two months ago.

Posted by: Gato Oct 1 2017, 02:29 AM

No shiny for me, the silver snot rag stayed out of my reach. Hatched enough to get 30 prize points though, so I'll just buy a voucher when I can.

...I really hope it's for Doggo form Zygarde

If I'm not mistaken, that's the Zygarde 10% Forme you're referring, right? If it is, then I'm hoping also, I love that forme. I'm not gonna complain if it is a Zygarde Core, though, 'cause I also like to have a Squishy. *insert Bonnie's Squishy Song*

Posted by: PokeNOM NOM NOM Oct 1 2017, 05:06 AM

Whoo, turned 30 today!
Enjoy the 3x multiplier, everyone.

Even Google wished me a happy birthday (haha, forgot I was logged in on my Google account, it surprised me).

I'll be celebrating it next week.

Hope everyone has a splendid month, it's off to a great start for me like this.

Just started the Diancie exploration because I hadn‘t done it yet. Even after eight years I still haven‘t got the achievement for doing 100 explorations yet.

I've been here for a while as well and still don't even have this achievement because I can't be butted to do TBD and various other explorations whose mons I've gotten through distributions :P

Hoping for Lele! That would be great grin.gif Was not fortunate enough to get Fake Groudon last time, boohoo sad.gif
Thankful that these events even happen at all though!

On a side note, I'm currently embarked on A Vacation to Remember, which is now driving me crazy, as I cannot seem to defeat the Latios trio sad.gif Got any tips for such a useless battler as me? I levelled up a Primal Dialga because it was dark, but Latios' moves were super effective against it. Blargh! I have one Scrafty which does wonders, and I'm currently levelling a Pangoro in the hopes it will help as it's the same typing. It's frustrating me because I have been waiting for the Diancie exploration for ages, and now it's finally here, I'm stuck on this one! Any help is appreciated!

Primal Dialga: Dark / Dragon
Latios: Psychic / Dragon

Dragon = x2 vs Dragon types.

There's the flaw. Get yourself a Mawile against it. It'll resist the damage. Steel resists both Psychic and Dragon, and Fairy receives 1/4 damage from Dragon attacks. So in reality Mawile would be a good shout. Any steel type really - Bronzong would also be a good choice. Ideally Mawile for the Fairy attacks though.

There is more than just a single type which is good against another type - the problem with Pangoro and Scrafty is, whilst they resist Psychic attacks, they're still pretty bad against Dragon typing.

Going for Reshiram for giveaway, Keldeo and Kyurem for exploration.

Sadly didn't get the shiny, and am waiting to see if the prize is in the prize shop soon.

Posted by: Rita Zyon Oct 1 2017, 10:32 AM

Happy 30th birthday PokeNom Nom Nom! I'll be turning 30 next year.

Ooh yay Zygarde voucher. I am hoping for the dog form too. I also realized that I finally have 200 prize points. I am debating whether or not I should use it for a legendary voucher to get one of the many legends I am missing.

My guess was both Doggo and the Core.

I just hope we can make Complete by using two 50%(Snake/Normal Zygarde), as I've saved a few just for this.

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Oct 1 2017, 06:43 PM

I thought it was going to be dog form myself, but it makes sense for it to be the cell or mechazord ones. We'll just have to wait and see. Also, happy 30th Pokenom Nom Nom!

And, would anyone mind feeding the Suicune in my Party a Pecha Berry? Trying to get my 2 for the month out of the way fairly quick, I still need some parts for this year's Halloween costume. Sadly can't get the actual shirt that the character has, so I'll need to improvise..

I had no idea that there was an anime series about it. I am enjoying it a lot! The only thing I don't like is the time it takes from the defeat to moving on to the next thing. Beyond that delay it's a great story, imo.

Gonna go eat some dinner right now though as ...

How can ya have any pudding (ice cream)?

Zygarde voucher? Lit! can't wait to see what we'll get and if we are going to do special things for the different shapes.
That would be fun to have to find those green sparkles like on the sun and moon game on headers like cosmog. I don't know if it's possible.

Speaking of Cosmog, Mamanator, I have a lvl 100 Cosmog ready to be released, if you're interested give me an hour and I can release it for you?

I hope I'll get an event egg. No matter which.

OoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoOoO with the Zygarde Cube update I hear a stampede for some Zygarde shiny hunts about to start! This seems really fun; I'm excited to see how it plays out, and who gets all of the Zygardes first.

Posted by: Megatron Oct 1 2017, 10:15 PM

I got lucky and hatched my gray cloth early on, so I coasted on multipliers to work on my other hunts to somewhat limited success, on top of moving. Arrived at the new place earlier today, super tired and still loads to be done, but it's nice to not have to worry about the actual moving part now.

I'm glad Zygarde's forms have been implemented now! Probably gonna take it casual with this, I'm only fond of two stages (the doge and snake).

Posted by: Asbel Lhant Oct 1 2017, 11:04 PM

Oooh, I'm loving the new Zygarde Cube as well as all the new shiny things we can do with Zygarde. I'll definitely be looking forward to seeing all of the new Zygarde forms on the site. I'll definitely go after the 10% form at first, then work my way up to 100%.

I hatched my shiny Grey Magikarp the other day, I'm so relived. That knocks off one of my current shiny hunts, now if only I could get my shiny Zergoose to show up.

Posted by: Shadow Fennekin Oct 1 2017, 11:15 PM

I'm glad they're finally here, getting Complete is going to take quite awhile though.
I'll probably hunt for the doge, depending on how long it takes. But I guess I'll start a hunt for Cells to make them easier to find, I do have plenty of space.... cause I'm waiting for Alola Pokemon not added yet to take those spaces. :P

Posted by: Sportsfan666 Oct 1 2017, 11:22 PM

The dex shows that the new Zygarde's are genderless, but my first two hatched male and won't breed with each other. I bought a third voucher hoping for a female before I noticed the genderless thing. I wonder if the dex will get changed or if the hatching with a gender is just a bug.

Yours didn't hatch male, nor should they, but I just fixed the daycare so that Zygarde can still breed despite both being genderless.

Yeah they are genderless now. I saw they didn't want to breed earlier and I'm pretty sure I saw the lock icon and just assumed it was the male icon. At least I have a working couple now, thanks.

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Oct 2 2017, 01:33 AM

At first I was thinking that it was going to take me a while to get the other forms, but then I remembered that I obtained another Zygarde from an event a while back. So, quickly threw that in the Daycare with my Cell. Keep an eye out for those Eggs, everyone! grin.gif

Might have to start a shiny hunt while I'm at it...

Posted by: Alchemists Fire Oct 2 2017, 03:52 AM

Didn't manage to hatch my Cutiefly shiny, so no SWSH prize for me. Will be curious to see what it is anyway.

I don't have EggDex for any of this month's choices, so I'm gonna try and remember to leave a party spot open. I'm sad no one picked Cosmog because I've had a header event for over a month and it's never given me the portal...

Posted by: Luneon Oct 2 2017, 07:02 AM

Thanks for breeding some! ^^
I managed to get a few from the shelter just now.
Cube and 50% are by far my favorite forms, 10% is nice too but I probably won't bother with 100% until way later on.

Posted by: PokeNOM NOM NOM Oct 2 2017, 11:11 AM

Hope everyone enjoys the Zygarde Cube.
I'm excited about it, anyway!

I'm glad to see people are breeding them!

That was rather nice of you, Shaoo. As you probably guessed I wasn't around after my post. I did get ice cream last night and then I had to walk the dogs for a spell.

I'm back now but way too late I'm sure, but I appreciated the thought. That's what counts after all. happy.gif

I just got back from the dentist and feel like crashing. Gah. Lots of Novocaine for the two fillings. Glad it's over. Two more appointments (because one includes a crown) and I'll hopefully be set for the rest of the year. Brusha, brusha, brusha for sure peeps!

In GPX related news.... I kind of went out and brought 4 Zygarde vouchers and picked up the Cube from the Shop yesterday. Not quite sure how these all work together. Perhaps I need to initiate the voucher first and then the Cube will work? Just not sure how many vouchers I need to activate or what will happen once I do. It'll be interesting to watch these two items come into play though. I might need to visit the party of someone who has started this (looks like PokeNOM NOM NOM has....) so I can see what happens and what to do.

In the mean time... happy clicking and activity everybody!

Every time you hatch a Zygarde [Cell] (which is what the voucher gives you), your Cube's power will increase by 1. Check the Minor Updates post for more information. The Cells are breedable so you don't really need more than 2 vouchers, but it doesn't hurt!

Yay this egg idea for the Zygarde's cells is funny. Thanks for breeding them! I was quite surprised to see an egg that looks like Zygarde on the shelter a bit earlier. I'm hyped! ^^

Oooh, I really like how Zygarde's been implemented! Much more fun than just changing a Zygarde's form (though it does mean the two pre-existing Zygarde I had for that are useless now lol). Cheers, staff!
I better start a hunt for the cells anyway, since it looks like I'm gonna be hatching at least 250 of them. coffee.gif

Posted by: Shadow Fennekin Oct 2 2017, 02:30 PM

Just a heads up, but I released 3 50% Zygarde in case anyone wants to snag them up for breeding.
I still have a pair that I'm breeding with

Posted by: Running On Ice Oct 2 2017, 02:34 PM

I'm using my two for breeding purposes, even though I'm not having much problems finding some in the shelter. I got enough for the Core, so soon I'll having my own Squishy!

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Oct 2 2017, 02:46 PM

I'm not having much trouble finding them, either, which is quite nice. Going to need to hatch a lot of these to get all the forms, plus I want to see what the shiny looks like. That 30K maturity is not going to be fun on non-multiplier days, though, and I usually don't venture halfway across the state on whims so the Mobile Walker's not too viable. Last time I did, it was for a relative's wake..

I got a Lele egg too. I wasn't really going for anything specific this time around but receiving that cheered me up a little bit. Maybe it'll be shiny!

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Oct 2 2017, 03:46 PM

I too got a Lele Egg! Was hoping for either that or Reshiram out of them all. Though, Darkrai or Genesect would have been great as well. Didn't have the Egg or the Pokedex entry for this one, so it'd be interesting if my first Lele hatched shiny. But I'm not getting my hopes up.

Posted by: The Yatagarasu Oct 2 2017, 03:51 PM

Digging the way the Zygarde forms work. Guess I'll breed them for everyone since I'm not breeding anything at the moment. Forgot to close my party and ended up with Tapu Lele, whoops. Doing another fresh start on the site and shiny hunting in dex order so I was gonna skip the giveaway eggs this month.

Unfortunately couldn't get myself a second Lele egg (could this be a side effect of being on the Arceus exploration?)
Seems like tomorrow will hold Reshiram so I'll instead try to get one of those grin.gif

I almost have enough Zygarde pts for a core so yay.

Posted by: Comfey Oct 2 2017, 04:18 PM

Lele's my favorite Tapu, so getting a shiny would be ungodly (and is pretty much my #1 goal at the moment)! Though I'm not counting on it, but if it happens, sweet frabjous days!

I didn't get Lele, somehow. My party was open, hoping for Reshiram tomorrow (any of them will do!)

I'm so sad, I went to hatch and box my party for the Event egg but the event went through before I could finish. My party was filled with Zygarde Cells sad.gif. I'm sad that I missed it, it was the only thing on the list I didn't have yet. I don't even know if I want to keep my party open for the rest of them, but I probably will.

Congrats to those that got one though.

Posted by: Zuzu Oct 2 2017, 06:58 PM

Sweet! I got a Tapu Lele egg. Thanks! And I love the color of the Shiny Zygarde Cell, hoping to get one soon. Also, I just realized that I suck at the Battle Tower as I can't seem to defeat the army of Pokemon, but I'm determined to defeat them within the month. Lol!

On another note, last night was kind of a stressful night for me. My phone has been attacked by what they call a browser hijacker. Basically, I was browsing the internet when a pop-up appeared telling I have 4 serious viruses on my phone and telling me to update/download something. Of course, having a strong feeling that it is some kind of a scam (which it is), I just ignored it and closed the window. I did a research on it, and found out it was not harmful to your personal infos (e-mail, passwords, etc.), it was just a bait to scare you and having you BUY and download their advertised antivirus or any other thing they offer to remove the deadly virus (fake virus). So, don't be fooled by it, if ever you will encounter one.

And so, just to be sure about things, I decided to reset/reformat my phone. Logging in back to Google, I totally forgot my password, and trying to recover it, Google cannot verify that I'm the owner of the e-mail, for some strange unknown reason. I tried everything I could but to no avail, I just can't recover it. Sad! But things are fine now, I logged in with my other e-mail.

Ugh, yeah, I get those things on my phone all the time. Used to get them a lot when visiting GPX+, back when everything was on an different server. Used to download actual viruses/malware to my computer, which was a pain to remove. Also, weird how it won't let you verify your e-mail..Wonder why.

Also, anyone else here know that depressing feeling when you want to reboot one of the old roleplay groups you were in [actually, several in my case], but every group you've ever made so far either died off really quickly or slowed to a painful crawl? Now I'm wondering whether or not it would even be worth it, considering that I'm not one of the popular kids and don't have a huge fanbase to begin with [it's difficult to make friends when literally everyone and their dog is already in a clique from the get-go, which explains why I don't even have lasting RP partners to begin with. Also, I'm a forgettable person]. Plus, the fandom for one of those groups is pretty much dead outside of one small G+ community and a few scattered Tumblr posts here and there.I did actually reboot an old group I was in semi-recently, but only because other old members tasked me to...and then they all chimped out at the last second, leaving me to run the group completely alone for the past few months. How rude. sad.gif

Posted by: MattSpurs94 Oct 3 2017, 06:27 AM

Managed to get Tapu Lele, so I'm pretty stoked. The others I didn't have I can get through explorations so this was the one I really wanted grin.gif

Posted by: Luneon Oct 3 2017, 08:06 AM

You can get almost 20k by just releasing Pokémon from your PC boxes (you gotta clear those things eventually and that's about the best time to do so), then doing a few k of clicks. Use mobile to mindlessly click while watching an anime or eating some food.

Yesterday I decided to play botw again
Each time I hear the Guardian noise it's just nope nope nope nope nope
Once I get further in the game and get the proper equipment to slay those things I'll come back for all of them
For now I'm just trying to NOT get hit

-------------------------------

Yeah the clique thing is why I never joined any roleplay groups
Unless you've been there since day 1(or have a ginormous following already), you just don't stand a chance
Eventually I quit RPing, both due to having trouble finding groups and just getting too old for that type of stuff.
It's so awkward when you're the only person who is 20+ and the rest is all 15-16 ^^;

7,500 activity score in a day is nothing. Everything you do on site gives you an activity score - just keep clicking and hatching eggs and you'll get it in no time.

Actually, if you are talking about exploration "interaction" tasks, then I believe the is no. I'm currently working on DotW and have been on this specific task for a number of days (real life has been a hassle for clicking), but my necessary click count has been dropping per the number of clicks I do that day. Of the 20,000 clicks I needed, I only need just over 5,000 more now. If I were more focused I'd been able to move on a while back, but I was also dragging my feet so as not to have 5 slots locked for a future task. LOL

In any event, if the tasks you're talking about are exploration related then no. That figure does not reset to zero if you didn't complete that task before the website reset time. But if you're asking about site related daily counts then yes. And if you are asking about achievement related clicks then that answer is also yes. That's why those prizes are so huge (I suppose they are; I haven't managed some of the larger number daily clicks) because it takes so much of your time and concentration. They're worth pursuing, but they take patience and time.

So are there actually explorations out there specific to daily activity? I haven't come across those yet, but there are a couple of them I haven't gotten to yet. That sounds a bit intimidating, but if you schedule your day accordingly, 7,500 is not as bad as you think. Just don't sweat the small stuff by proper berry interactions and you can "breeze" right through them.

*EDIT*
Ooo! x Sam! It's your birthday? Kudos! Happy Birthday! It sounds like you are having an enjoyable day. I hope it continues to play out in your favor in all things today. Have a great day! My youngest adores cats, too. She had been pushing for cats before we wound up getting the dogs. Now she wants a couple of cats to even the odds. LOL

Yes, they aren't interaction tasks, they depend on your Activity Score, which resets daily anyway. For a time it was 7.5k more after you reached the task, which was even worse! But it's not that bad, if you stack up a bunch of Pokémon to release you'll get a good chunk, and evolving also does a lot, top it off with some clicking and you're golden. When I got to the first task, I'd been clicking through a few of the previous tasks so I already had the requisite amount. The second one I used the above methods.

And hello there everyone! I haven't posted in a while I think?? I've been playing Pokémon Silver since it got out for the 3ds Virtual Console and I'm having fun. I played Crystal a long time ago and didn't finish it and now I'm close to finishing this one (I'm in Mt. Silver) so yay.

I've seen the news about Marshadow being released in USA and PAL region but once again I won't be able to get myself a code so I'll have to ask someone to get me one...how I hate this type of events. Amazon.es was offering codes with the pre-orders of USUM but now that we were going to pre-order that promotion ended and I'm very frustrated!

On gpx news, I was so surprised with how the zygarde forms were implemented, it was so clever! Very well done, congratulations! I'm eager to get my own doge Zygarde.

Posted by: Storskarfen Oct 3 2017, 11:35 PM

I've been trying to catch Pokerus lately and I've been wondering...

Assume you have an exploration pokemon that was spawned into your party and it catches Pokerus. You complete the task(s) that it's in your party for and it's despawned, before you used an Antidote or it got cured naturally. Does either your PKRS cure or antidote stat go up, or just nothing? What if you do antidote it or cure it and it's despawned? Does the stat page keep the count, or does it revert back?

So many experiments to perform...


As a sidenote, if any of you like nail polish, I'm on the hunt for good halloween-y oranges and purples. There seems to be a dearth of orange nail polishes in the world, and halloween-y purples tend to be too "fun" for everyday wear, at least if you base it off of what mainstream brands are making. I'm really interested in any recommendations! Halloween is my favorite holiday and October is my favorite month, so I want to gather all of the resources I can to celebrate it the way some people might celebrate Christmas (she says as she hunts pokemon with orange, green, and purple eggs). Does anyone else share my passion for Halloween/October?


@PokeNOM NOM NOM: I saw the Old Rod! I wondered about that.

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Oct 4 2017, 01:49 AM

More Jump Karp patterns? Oh no, this means more shinies to hunt! Lol. Not that I'm particularly complaining, but there goes my chances of having an empty Shine Recorder for quite a while. Hoping I get that shiny from the distribution, but at least I can fall back on my Prize Points/that one Exploration if I don't get it this time around. Can't even remember why I wanted one in the first place, that's the sad thing..And I managed to get it on my actual games before anything else.

Also, Storskarfen, I've always been under the assumption that they would count towards your total stats. Then again, I'm not exactly a mod, so maybe don't take my word as gospel. But that's what I've heard, anyways. Can't say I know much about fancy nail polishes, either, since all I really use them for is that DIY glass stone jewelry stuff. And I've always been more neutral about the subject of Halloween than anything else, probably because it reminds me of being forced to camp out with my abusive grandmother so I could hand out candy every Halloween for years on end.

Thank you for that!

But I have two questions...
1. So this means we can only get 2 Old Rod in total (by logging in today and tomorrow), right?
2. Regardless of this event (giving us Old Rod when logging in today and tomorrow), is the Old Rod one of the items we can randomly found on the ground by normal means?

I'm asking these questions because I already found two Old Rods, the first one was maybe around after reset (I kind of forgot if it was before or after reset), and the second one was just now when I logged in (about 4:10 AM Server Time). So if I log in back tomorrow, I would have 3 Old Rods in total. I'm a little bit confused, sorry.

What a nice surprise thank you! Got mine and I was "hey, I've never seen a old rod on gpx"
Got my blue fishy in waiting to get the violet tomorrow <3

That one.

QUOTE(Zuzu @ Oct 4 2017, 03:33 AM) *
Thank you for that!

But I have two questions...
1. So this means we can only get 2 Old Rod in total (by logging in today and tomorrow), right?
2. Regardless of this event (giving us Old Rod when logging in today and tomorrow), is the Old Rod one of the items we can randomly found on the ground by normal means?

I'm asking these questions because I already found two Old Rods, the first one was maybe around after reset (I kind of forgot if it was before or after reset), and the second one was just now when I logged in (about 4:10 AM Server Time). So if I log in back tomorrow, I would have 3 Old Rods in total. I'm a little bit confused, sorry.

1. Correct.
2. No, it's a voucher, so it cannot be found normally.

Some folks got two today due to a minor glitch, you were one of them.

Not sure what was difficult to understand about that, but you get two old rods in total. Log in today you get one, log in tomorrow you get another.

Well, that's what I thought, but it could have been the one item per user thing. In case someone didn't actually get the chance to get one today, but log in tomorrow, they'd still be able to get one type thing.

Posted by: Luneon Oct 4 2017, 12:00 PM

Since I still had a few leftover rods from last time I decided to use 2 to get the newer karps.
I really like the colors of the new ones.
They seem to be able to form change but don't have a new form available just yet.
Guess we might be in for an additional treat later grin.gif
(or it's a glitch and I'm getting my hopes up for nothing but hey it's cool)

I'm excited for Love Live Sunshine S2 and Himouto Umaru-chan R (that's the name of the S2)
Adding this weekend's Splatfest with the weird theme to the mix
Sounds like I'm gonna have an amazing weekend with loads of fun

Oh! That was around since last night? lol I apparently didn't see that I got one

It's nice to see those karp get in. I might hunt Blue just for fun after I finish collecting Zygarde cells, I'm keeping Zygarde in the daycare until that point.

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Oct 4 2017, 12:28 PM

I like how one of the sprites for the new Karp is called "saucy". Like, why saucy out of all things? It just sounds so silly.

Anyways, speaking of bred Pokemon, my Zygarde pair bred a shiny and I was unfortunate enough not to pick it. Oh well, at least the person who got it is getting some use out of it, they've put it in their Daycare. Also, in the same line of thinking, does it make anyone else a little sad when someone picks up a shiny you bred, but then they don't do anything with it? It just gets put in the PC after it hatches and that's it.

Posted by: Storskarfen Oct 4 2017, 05:57 PM

Awww @AregularFrankiefan, it makes me sad that Halloween doesn't have happy connotations for you.

On the bright side, my shiny Dedenne and my Breloom made another shiny Dedenne, and a person new to the site got it. I hope that shiny encourages to keep playing, and I don't have to be jealous because I'm hunting for Shroomish happy.gif

Yeah, that makes me a little sad, too. But maybe sometimes we can't blame them, because they might be doing some personal/GPX+ goals and it is not just their priority at the moment to level them up or do something with the shiny Pokemon yet.

BUT, I could say it will be real sadness for me when months or years will go by, and the poor little shiny is still there, untouched.

I've been breeding my Zygarde with a ditto, and noticed they havent had eggs in a while. So I check up on them and it says "The two Pokémon prefer to stay away from each other."

Did they have a fight or something while I was gone? D : Or is there a limit to how many times the two can breed? Or does the breeding status just change like that? I dont remember what it said before, but I can https://gpx.plus/heritage/eyAJX that the two have had 4 offspring.

Thanks so very! I was number crunching for work but saw the FB message and was able to grab the first rod late in the day, early evening. And then scored the other one sometime yesterday. Sweetness! I still have to use my other rods I had purchased, but I love hoarding items anyway so now, one day, I can have a full party of colorful Magikarps. LOL Thanks for the spare rods. I'll try to spoil some fish when I return from my current exploration. *smirk*

Did you start the breeding during the bonus days? Have the bonus days preempted the normal breeding? I know you get more bred during bonuses, so ...

Accidentally got a Kyogre egg during yesterday's giveaway when I was keeping an open spot for an Exploration rather than the giveaway. Second month in a row that's happened. I know it's my fault for forgetting the giveaways happen in the first week of the month, but I kinda wish we could mark our parties with yes/no for the giveaways, so if we're keeping an open spot for another reason we don't accidentally have it filled and have to wait for something to hatch to get that slot back...

Hmm. That would be interesting. But if nothing else, you can always put in a hatched pokemon to fill the last space. Then, when you're ready to advance your exploration, store it in the PC/Pokewalker.

And also? It seems the cell eggs are ready to hatch now anyway.

You're soooo right. I mean it's not like there were not a massive amount of pokemon fans in Europe. They made an ephemeral shop in Paris few years ago for X and Y games, but the shop was assaulted so much that they were obliged to sell only one product per customer, there were not enough stuff. And Paris is a bit too far from me but that's another subject haha.

You can find some vulpix plush on the internet, real are hugely expansive, false are cheaper, and some of them seems to be really nice... I guess it depends if you found a good "faker" or not =/

They should open like a pokecenter per country in Europe, I'm sure it worth it.

About the new USUM trailer, without spoilers, I'll just say that I'm soo hyped right now, that's crazy. It really reminds me of Platinum game, and it was my favourite. I think that if I've enough money to buy the game, I'll play it in english for once. I don't know all the attacks but I'll learn, and it would be a good manner to practice my english.

I just really need to give a shout out to Shaoo. We've been missing each other for a few days or so now when Shaoo first volunteered to release Cosmog for me. Today I opted to send an IM and Shaoo was receptive. But after I told her I was available to Safari Stalk, I got a phone conference with one of my daughter's teachers. 25 minutes after Shaoo released the special Pokemon I went straight away, feeling for sure I'd messed up.

Then, while I was busy hunting in the Safari, the site died for me. Ugh!

Constant hits on the reload button and feet getting nervous and jumpy, I was so sure I'd lost the chance.

And then... there she was. Lower right corner with nobody around her to bother her.

But I had to click quick! There were 9 others who could see her. What if....

After the shocked surprise and hesitation, I clicked on the egg. Then I had to click on the confirmation box. And waited.

And now.... now she's in my party. love.gif

Thank you, Shaoo, for releasing her to me.
And thank you, fellow GPXers, for not beating me to the click.

I've got to admit, Darky, that I wish there were a secure way to transfer Pokemon from Person A to Person B. I'd even be wiling to pay Points or Prize Points for the privileged. But until that comes to pass I'm just glad I only had to fight 9 people for it. There are times that there are 20+ out there. That's why we initiated it through IM so no one else would be alerted. blush.gif Never feel bad for seeing something valuable and clicking on it to claim it, k? I wouldn't have been mad about it as that's the nature of the game and chance. I was just so glad it worked out so well.

Well you don't have to worry, Darky ^^ it's just a question of chance, sometimes it works, sometimes not... It's the only legal way to help each other! I raised this little guy in hope someone in need would have it, so in any case that is a good thing and it makes someone happy, that all what I wanted haha ^^
But I agree with Mamanator, if someday the admins would like the idea to let us spend our prize points to offer a pokemon to another person, a person we chose, like a global link thing, count me in to use it haha

Edit: I saw this funny thing on the safari zone, I hope I'm allowed to share it with you guys, I laughed :'D

Posted by: Shadow Fennekin Oct 7 2017, 02:21 AM

I'd support that idea. Even if it was a point sink like 100,000 or 250,000 per transfer, there's really not much to use points on. PC boxes are the only current money sink, and even then you could just use prize points.
I'd love for points to have a purpose again, prize points are really the only thing that comes and goes for me.

Though it would take a bit of joy of hunting new novelties in the shelter/safari from me, I'd love to be able to offer new novelties to people having trouble getting one. happy.gif

There was also supposed to be an event there for Pokémon GO (but it got moved to Amstelveen instead), so a center in that area would be a great idea.


Posted by: Gym Leader Clay Oct 8 2017, 02:35 PM

I always have this weird reoccurring dream that you could like get only certain pokemon through trades? Like special recolours/novelties. It's a little weird but constantly stuck in my mind. I guess I'd be okay with trading if the price is steep, either that or maybe making those secret secret esque gift exchanges as more than just once a year thing. It's something I always look forward to.

But eh, I'm p satisfied with the site as it is. I'd rather what we have already be perfected instead of new features.

WOAH! Congrats on that. I've been wanting and hoping to hatch a shiny Legendary in my party, that's why I am always awestricken just by seeing someone hatched a shiny Legendary.

On another note, there's a severe tropical storm again in our country. It seems that storms (most are severe) are visiting us regularly, which is really not a good thing considering the damages they've done and the lives they took. I'm praying that the present typhoon will not do a great damage, especially on those located on the eye of the storm.

Yeah.... I'm definitely in support of breeding incentives.
First Chansey last month, now Machoke.... I spent days waiting on each just to end up breeding the darn thing myself. Barely anyone is breeding half the things needed for expeditions.
I spent the latter half of last month breeding Happini for people until the month ended since literally only 1 other person was breeding it at the time according to the stats. And literally nobody is for Machop right now.

My Oricorio Pa'u Hunt was 3,087 eggs.

Posted by: Alex Mercer Oct 14 2017, 12:08 PM

Just hatched my second shiny Zygarde cell... in 13 eggs. I'll be honest, when I said I wanted a shiny legendary, this isn't what I meant... x'3 Just released it, if anyone wants to check the Safari Zone.

A second breeding slot does sound great. It's harder to find specific eggs than it was at this site's outset. Not only do we have several more generations, but we have exponentially more novelties, and due to formalized shiny hunts, that's almost all anyone wants to breed. People have to go out of their ways to have breeding pairs that don't contain at least one novelty, it seems. I try to breed my novelties with a pokemon in the same egg group that lacks a novelty, but some egg groups don't have that many novelties.

I'm weirdly resistant to change my Battle Tower team, but it's far from perfect. I lack offensive grass and electric moves, which makes water/flying and water/ground types hard to deal with on occasion (usually I stonewall waters with a defensive Palkia, but that doesn't work for physical attackers who have neutral attack types to it, or worse, worst type fairies), and offensively, I have trouble dealing with fast Ghost types. Steel type losing its resistance to Dark type also hurt me; Aggron's not as good a wall as it used to be.

I'm thinking of getting a Mega Manectric, but as always, I'm never sure who to replace.

It's just math that we won't have someone breeding whatever Pokemon at all times. There's more and more Pokemon to breed as time goes on, and the active user base isn't large enough to support the entire egg dex being bred by choice. Beyond that, people are going to breed what *they* need, so multiple people are going to be breeding the popular Pokemon (Eevee), some people will breed the Pokemon they need (Chansey), but what suffers is the niche Pokemon that aren't popular but certain people love, like Skorupi or Whismur.

People are also going to be more interested in the newer Pokemon of recent generations and novelties because duh, they're new, which makes the older canon Pokemon also less likely to be bred.

I think that having a second daycare slot could help with this because you could breed that niche Pokemon that you love all the time, and also breed what you need without replacing that niche Pokemon.

Posted by: Alex Mercer Oct 14 2017, 12:27 PM

If there was a second breeding slot, I'd support a restriction on it so that it can't be used to breed novelties (and thus become more of the same problem.) Though it occurs to me that the whole deal might be difficult to code. Certainly the novel power might get confused.

Edit: Well... an update to getting two shiny Zygarde cells and wanting a real shiny legendary... I think I just hatched the first shiny Zygarde Core on site. Eeeeeee. I'd consider that a proper legendary, on par with the corrupted legends. Wonder if this makes me eligible for Blue Moons. It's almost a shame that we can't form-change these, aha...

I went to a fantastic sushi place today. It was sort of a Brazilian Barbeque setup in that you got to sample lots of different things for a set price - let me try some rolls and assorted Japanese dishes I wouldn't have normally tried, because I do tend to stick to the same tested and true favorites. I really enjoyed it. Wish it wasn't so far away, or I'd be making this place a regular occurrence. I guess my waistline is saved.

That happened to me, as well. Looking for a certain Pokemon/Pokemon Egg needed for an exploration task, and it turned out that no one was breeding it at that time. Luckily, I found one in the Safari, and then a user started breeding it too. I forgot which Pokemon it was, though.

Anyway, I visited the Statistics page, and I gathered the list of Pokemon who currently has no breeder, and I'm gonna share it to you right now. So, this is in the time of writing, therefore, this list is not fixed as some users might breed some in next hour.

No breeders as of the moment (click to show)


On another note, weather has been gloomy here where I live since yesterday. I was kinda happy just because it's not so hot, but I'm kinda worried, as well, because of the tropical storm hitting somewhere in the northern part of our country.

EDIT: Forgot to say, I also support the idea of a second breeding slot and/or breeding incentives.

I should probably change the gem on the Lucario to Electric, but I do get a lot of use out of it as it is. Dragons everywhere.

I would change the gems on MCY and Mega Lucario. Neither of those covers their weaknesses. I would also swap Palkia for Azumarill with Leftovers. You'd still cover water and dragons, you'd get dark coverage and you have MCY and Mega Lucario if you need someone else to cover grass.

I don't know who'd be a good replacement for Aggron on your team, but the two 4x weaknesses are a real vulnerability against opponents with Ground and Fighting gems.

I find the Ice Gem useful on Charizard because I can switch him into dragon-types, especially dragon-flying and dragon-ground, and then wreck them. I will try to switch on Lucario, and I'll give Azumarill a shot, maybe shiny hunt Azurill while I look for IVs. Though Palkia doesn't actually offensively cover dragons; it's too slow. I mostly use it to stonewall water and fire types, who can't do anything to it. It had better defensive typing in the past (I do not like gen 6), but it's still pretty solid. Still, I'll test out the suggested replacements.

I tend not to use gems to cover a pokemon's own weakness, unless by weakness you mean types that they're not very effective against. I'm also not particularly bothered by Aggron's 4x weaknesses; in practice, the gem problem almost never plays out in the Battle Subway, and I generally don't set up Aggron early on in a battle. The real problem is when I face a powerful special-attacking mono-type Electric or Dark pokemon late in a fight, which Aggron can't survive long enough to set up against. Haxorus and Lucario respectively handle those types, but as offensive pokemon, they're often KOed by the point I need Aggron.

Thanks for the advice!

Today I decided that I was finally going to get off my behind and start Death of the World. I wanted to get to the dreaded task 11 so I could enjoy the multipliers for leveling my Pokemon. I managed to beat 3 of my records from back in April of 2016(iirc).

Activity Score: 354,103
Interactions: 93,748
Proper Berry Interacts: 13,976

Needless to say, my wrists are currently on fire, so I probably won't be clicking for a few days. I'll be clicking if there are Pokemon for the scavenger hunt that I need to level up, but other than that, I'll give my wrists a rest.

I was trying to get to 75 so I could get the EXP All in the Battle Subway, on my first attempt I got to a 39 streak. Unfortunately, I ended up getting haxed to death by a Scizor with a Quick Claw that never missed. Any other attempts stalled at 5 so I still have a long way to go yet for it. Maybe the multipliers from the Honey+ will level my Pokemon just a bit quicker until I can get the EXP All. All I know is I'm only going to be doing Death of the World once just for the exploration achievements lol.gif.

Posted by: Alex Mercer Oct 15 2017, 11:42 PM

Huh. I went four years without seeing a Manaphy egg. Then I got two within three hours. Also two Korechus. The past day has been very active for header events. I wonder if I'll get a Cosmog, for once? oh.gif

Wow, those are absolutely crazy statistics. The most I'd ever managed was about 30k interactions, and that ate up my entire day. I have no idea how you pulled thrice that, but eesh, definitely ease up on the wrists. I'd say they've earned it!

Death of the World is terribly, terribly long, but unlike That Burning Desire, you may just find yourself inclined to do it again. I don't mind the length of the exploration itself; what I don't like is that if I take it casually, it will take me well over a month (if I work hard, it takes me a little less than a month), and that means I start missing out on some special explorations. Which, given that you never know ahead of time which legendaries are going to be available, can be pretty painful.

Yup. The plus helped out massively with speeding through the eggs, annoyingly 200 is the limit so anymore I hatch right now don't add to the total.

I added you too; I only have 5 trinkets left I need so, I doubt you'll be able to give me anything, but I have tons of duplicates of things so, feel free to add and I'll just send stuff your way.

On that note - I also agree with the prior conversation on adding a second, novelty-not-allowed, breeding slot. It'd be so nice to be able to help breeding needed pokemon without giving up my shiny novelty hunts.

In other news, I've been reading the Kingdom Hearts manga series lately... and it is so adorable. I've only gotten through CoM so far; so excited to go through Days and KH2!

Comfey: no, all mega gems are obtainable one at a time every first day of a bonus day, as soon as you connect yourself on the website. It might take time, especially if you miss the first bonus day.
Edit: I should add that you receive a mega stone in a random order, so when you get one, your friend can get somethng else on the same day as you.

That would be good a little number next to the bonus header to show in which bonus day we are, because when we are away for several days and we come back and there is a bonus, we don't know if we missed everything or not xD

These multipliers are really helping my Pokemon in the DotW Task 11 level up pretty quickly. I already have Happiny up to level 100, Lapras is currently the slowest at level 57. I think I'll probably have one more day before the multipliers stop and I'll be stuck waiting for a couple days lol.gif.

The scavenger hunt tasks have been pretty good so far, I've managed to get everything done so far. I haven't had any issues with finding the Pokemon for the tasks, hopefully my 'luck' holds out.

Posted by: Storskarfen Oct 17 2017, 10:09 PM

I'm so lucky that DotW only took me a scootch over a month to complete on my first try. It honestly felt way shorter, and I had multiplier days to help me with my party pokes, so it wasn't too painful. It was definitely more enjoyable than That Burning Desire.

Hatching 3000 eggs before getting a shiny is intense! I just had my first hunt that is exceeding 1k and I can't even imagine searching that many eggs. 3000 just seems cruel, especially if you *really* love that Pokemon you're hunting :P

Posted by: Gym Leader Clay Oct 18 2017, 03:26 PM

This thread went quiet a few days back and I forgot to post e.e I read it all and I'm inspired to breed Pokemon that have nothing bred for. I honestly never breed my own Pokemon unless its a novelty I'm hunting or sometimes if its for the SWSH or an exploration tbh. i honestly forgot that you can check for statistics with breeding. I guess if anyone wants a certain Pokemon being bred I'm here. Otherwise I'll just throw two random unloved Pokemon together and start popping babies.

I need to also think more about trinkets and battling too, but, well... I'd have to sacrifice something else I do here instead and, well....


@_@ i'm getting worried that I won't hatch a shiny this month. Have had a trend lasting since December '15 which probably isn't a big deal to a lot of people but since this is only really a side hobby to me, I think it's really great.

When it comes to Shiny Hunts I am not really making progress either. Mainly because I get distracted by other things like Explorations, sometimes the PokéHunt, SWSHs etc. happy.gif

Same here, I have a couple I've had for years that just don't seem to get anywhere at all XD
I did hatch a few random shinies recently though so that's pretty neat I guess
My novelty hunts happen to share an egg group so I am lucky that I can breed both at once

Well thanks to the multipliers I only have Lapras in my party to get to 100. I should hopefully have a level 100 Lapras sitting in my party before reset. I decided to buy some credits and I maxed out Prize Plus anyways, just to give everyone more multipliers.

I'm hoping I can finish this exploration before the weekend and be done with it for a while. I'm not sure when I'll be going for this exploration again, I'll have to get lucky enough to get to 75 in the Battle Subway first before I think of any future DotW runs.

EDIT: I. Am. DONE crazy.gif. Task 11 is now completed! That task took me 2 days, 22 hours and 1 minute to complete. I'd probably STILL be leveling up my Pokemon if I didn't have the multipliers helping me out.

This little rat got herself in a predicament and needs some Sweet Candy Corn:

Now I can sit back and relax until this little glutton gets her fill and lets me continue on with the next task.

I am soooo confused with those candiesX) can anybody help me with the flavours? I managed to figure uot that candy corn is sweet. What about others?^^*

If you haven't randomized the berry order in the Settings and memorized the berry positions, you'll have no problem. Presuming it's in fixed order, the candies have the same position and flavour with the fixed berry order. But anyway, the Warhead is sour, Redhots are spicy, Reeses is dry (I LOVE REESES), Candy Corn is sweet, and Peppermint is bitter.

Actually, at first, I thought Redhots were Wonka's Nerds candies (those red ones, though), and I was like, 'When does it became spicy?'. Lol!

Oh, and according to the wiki, the Orange Island exploration rewards either Splash Chikorita, Magma Totodile, or Spring Cyndaquil, your choice.

Zuzu, thanks for help. I've never knew I can have fixed berry orderO__O shame on me!

Hey there! How's everyone doing?
I don't know if anyone saw this, but serebii posted some news in which it's said that pokemon usum are confirmed to be the last poke games for the 3ds system. From now on, if we want to play more pokemon we'll need to get a switch.

Gpx+ wise, I'm trying to keep being active and motivated but me constantly playing games doesn't help lol. Oh, I see some talk about trinket swapping some posts above. I want to join. I still need about 30 trinkets.
If someone has one too much of the following: Spooky Ball, Purple Wisp & Creepy Crustle Art, please PM me and we can arrange a trade. ^^

Wait so that didn't mean a new handheld or the new 2ds XLs???? oh.gif
I'd love new gens to be on the Switch but idk if the Switch will have sold enough units by then to be considered successful enough for the series to be able to continue on there....
I fear they might just throw it on a new handheld since Nintendo didn't see the Switch as a replacement for the 3ds

Anyone want to do a shiny race? I have four active hunts with 100+ eggs hatched and a 5th with over 400 hatches, but my sweet honey hasn't wanted to attract many eggs lately. I figured I'd ask here.

Jade, thank you so much for all the Trinkets! Many of them were Trinkets that I was actively offering mine for in the Marketplace so I have been able to delete many of them from my „still to obtain“ list happy.gif.

By the way: What does candy corn taste like? We don‘t have them here and I only know them from photos.


You're welcome!

Also, candy corn tastes like... well, it depends on who you ask, but it's VERY sugary. Candy corn has this weird, wax-like texture to it but the taste when you bite into it is kind of like... mm, I guess really strong brown sugar? Generally people either love it or hate it.

Mikaku, I'd love to help you with the trinkets but I really doubt I have any you need and I know i don;t have any doubles of the october ones. you're welcome to still add me though if you want me to check.

Also, might be down for a race sportsfan if you wanna PM me

I actually wonder how Reeses, Warhead and Redhots candy taste. I suppose Redhots is more...spicy and Reeses is chocolate?

Reeses are yeah, basically a crumbly peanut butter covered in chocolate and shaped into a cup.

Warheads are suuuuper sour. Basically they are hard candies and come in come in multiple flavors - lemon, green apple, blueberry, black cheery and watermelon - and these candies are coated in a sour dust. Once you suck off all the dust them it just becomes a fruit-flavored hard candy. They're sour enough that eating a bunch of them will inflame your tongue.

And redhots are cinnamon candies. They are like a spicy-sweet combination. They are tiny, hard candies.

At least peppermints seem to be universal xD

Posted by: Shaoo Oct 20 2017, 06:59 PM

Gosh I havent seen that zygarde blue core was an alternative sprite --' I hatched a core few days ago and I was like "oh no this one is red like Squishy too, I gonna release it and take a chance later" I should watch for alternative sprites more, it doesn't come in my mind, shame on me. Well, that means I need to summon a new core and change the sprite this time (because I would like to get them both). Doggo zygarde is not available yet so maybe I'll catch up until this time!

Actually I've never taste all those candies, except peppermint, which are, like Jade said, universal %D
If some days I go to England or in an other country who is familiar with those candies, I would take a look.

Yeah, pokemon usum is the last game on 3DS platform, I think that includes 2DS too. Nintendo also said that they are currently working on a new pokemon game for nintendo switch, that may be available current 2018, surely in autumn... I don't know where I will find the money to buy a switch xD until that date, I will enjoy pokemon usum ^^

On my trinkets collection I'm stuck at 93%. I still need some low rarities, and of course the more difficult to get, 9 and 10. I will continue to give trinkets for those who will add me of course, but like Darky, tell me if you do so because I don't see who just added me %D

Posted by: Mikaku Onchi Oct 20 2017, 07:08 PM

@Shaoo, can I add you on my pal pad? I'll see if I have something you still need. If you still have space and want to add me back, go ahead.

Yeah probably the game they announced for 2018 will be the next game, for switch only. I don't have the money to buy one either darn it.

When does the Halloween exploration disappear? I'm assuming i'll need to complete it towards the achievement of doing every exploration at least once?

The time limit for that is making me seriously on edge and frustrating me further because i'd rather not have to quit the exploration I'm on because I've invested so much time already but I'm having so much difficulty with it I might have to because I don't want to have to wait A WHOLE YEAR just to do the Halloween one crying.gif
Guardians "army of pokemon" malarky.. and I dread to think what the last task battle has in store crying.gif
Me + battle tower = complete and utter uselessness
If I can't complete it I may never get the achievement!
Adding to the frustration is I'm so damn close to finishing it crying.gif

In hindsight, I possibly should've done the halloween one first.. but I'm a numpty.

Ugh i'm just so panicky right now I feel sick. And i feel silly for getting so worked up about this, but there we are.

Rant over, i'm sorry.

On a better note, I'm chufty I got a Reshiram egg from the event.

I joined the site back in August 2009 and just spent some time looking at the site on Wayback Machine from those "early" days. It's amazing how much things have changed, but also how much is the same. Looking at stats and the Pokemon I was shiny hunting back then is one of the most interesting aspects--I was hunting Smeargle, Shroomish, and Cacnea. You might notice that my icon is shiny Smeargle, requested on this site back then before I found my shiny. I've found Cacnea. However, I'm still hunting that Shroomish.

Back then, the first 20k experience egg was produced and released into the wild, and a lot of people were flummoxed and thought it was a glitch. Nowadays I don't really bat an eye at large XP eggs, especially if there's a multiplier going. Back then I thought shiny hunts lasting longer than 50 or so eggs were long (Smeargle was one of them), but this previous SWSH, I hatched my Cutiefly in 600+ eggs, in less than a week.

Posted by: Amberfunk Oct 21 2017, 05:34 AM

The halloween event in pokemon go started yesterday and they released generation 3. I've caught a shuppet at my place so far. Duskull escaped. There is also a chance of catching a shiny sableye during the event as well happy.gif

I'm wulfenite and need quite a few hundred trinkets. Trying to make offers in the market is time consuming how it is set up. If you're an opposite affinity you can add me and let me know. I can give you anything you need that I might have. Just send me a pm and let me know.

I'm finally feeling better though we are incredibly broke. I broke down and got some groceries. It's a good thing I'm vegan so beans and rice are really cheap. I'm getting creative with making stuff with them. I made a cheese sauce last night with red lentils, nutritional yeast, spices, almond milk, carrots and potatoes. It tastes amazing and super cheap too. Vegan cheese options premade at the store are super expensive and I can only buy them rarely and I was a huge cheese eater before I went vegan. I'm so happy I got to make a cheese sauce. I'm going to add salsa to it next time for a nacho dip.

I, on the other hand, would say that the trinket market works very well. The biggest problem with it, contrary to popular belief, is a formatting issue that prevents trinkets with a name that use the accented e (é), and for some reason we are still getting those trinkets added to the site... but that's a different topic altogether. The point is, you just have to figure out what I did about four years ago. You can use ctrl + f to search the list. See link in my signature for a piece I wrote about that. Also note that chance power is so powerful that you should not be afraid of trading away trinkets before you get duplicates of them.

Posted by: Darky Oct 21 2017, 08:48 AM

Now I want some candy. after I've read about the flavours=( *sighs*

Just read your piece about it. Never realized that you could do that, super helpful.

I managed to get a few gen3 Pokémon in GO already.
Not any of the Pikachu yet but so far I got Sableye, Shuppet, and Duskull.
I don't know which others been released, other than their evolutions.
According to some dex screenshot, the first nr is 5. So there should be at least 5 I suppose...

--------------------------------------

Btw, Vdex shut down a while ago, has anyone heard from the owner about when the sprites would be released????

After 7 days and 9 hours, I am now the proud owner of an Arceus grin.gif. I am so glad that I'm finished that exploration, now I'm never doing it again lol.gif. The exploration wasn't too bad with multipliers, I'd hate to see how long it would have taken without. I only need to finish TBD now to have all of the explorations completed, I think I'll work on that one in a few weeks. For now I'm going to stare at my pretty new Arceus egg.

I haven't figured out yet which are the "best" to do for that one.


Posted by: Storskarfen Oct 24 2017, 10:06 PM

@Luneon Definitely the Novelty/Rare Pokemon tab has some quick explorations. But you're going to want to do it on a day when you can rack up the clicks, and when the rest of the site is active too. Ofc, big modifiers won't hurt either.

I'd recommend A Journey Through Space & Time in the Items category -- only took me about an hour and a half! The Novelty explorations can also be very fast, especially if there are a decent amount of people active when you get to the berry interaction tasks. Good luck with the achievement!

Is anyone else having a difficult time finding eggs for today's Scavenger Hunt task in the shelter?

One of them is an egg for one of my shiny hunts, but suddenly they're nowhere to be found...
And I don't wanna gamble on Crabominable and not have the weather turn to snow...

Guess it's lab-hunt time xD

Posted by: miu Oct 25 2017, 01:09 AM

Yep, the only one I've seen so far was Crabrawler. I did grab one, but I'd rather have another species with a simpler way of evolving, so I'm going to search some more.

EDIT: Found a Cubone egg just now ^^

Posted by: Mamanator Oct 25 2017, 12:46 PM

Hey All! *waves sheepishly*

I was worried for a bit about today's egg hunt also, but then I got blessedly lucky with finding the Alolan Grimer. Once it hatched it was quick work to level it up in the Walker since I'm knee deep in the Arceus explore. Definitely going to be one of the longest involved explorations I've done to date. lol.gif I'm still back at task 7, but I'm also taking my time and not rushing through it.

I don't mind the heavy click tasks at all; it'll be the upcoming leveling up task that kills some every time. blush.gif But at least we have that spare slot to keep open and I won't have to have specific berries for all of the Pokemon. I will just have to be extra active during that period to have a few more peeps visit my party.

I've been distracted with some wonderful (#sarcasm) real life events and these past couple of days I've been at the office which, actually, is a far better cry than having to be in the actual Board meeting going on. *phew* I think I dodged a bullet on that one! ROFL, but I guess I should hold my judgment until after I create the minutes from the tapes. Can you say joy? *smirk*

Other than that not much new going on for me over here. Monster Hunter Stories is still dominating my down time and, in between, I'm getting to Game Stop for the special Pokemon codes. I think a shiny Pokemon code becomes available today. Here's hoping anyway!

GPX related news... my Prankster turned into the Strange Portal and, this morning, the portal turned into an Old Man. Huh. Ah well. Here's hoping the Old Man loses interest fast and becomes a Wormhole of sorts. If not then I guess it all starts over and I hope against hope for a "pure" Cosmog and coddle my Shaoo Jr. in the interim (at least until I have to put her away in favor of the exploration necessities).

I hope everyone out here is doing well. I'm going to get back to quick clicking for now. Till next time..... grin.gif

Posted by: Sportsfan666 Oct 25 2017, 01:07 PM

I found a cubone a little after reset. I've found that to be the easiest way to deal with Scavenger tasks.

Also I've decided to try finishing every exploration at least once. I'm on Bridging the Gap now. I have a sort of side quest to complete all of the gym achievements too but I already have two+ boxes of shinies to level. I just hatched another one (I started that hunt because I was having trouble finding 3/5 of my other hunt Pokemon, funny enough) so it just keeps building up.

I'm with you on the side quests for the gym achievements, Sportsfan. It's a daunting task for me at the moment so I won't be returning to it until after my current exploration. But the achievements are a bit fun. I'm still on the basic set though and can only imagine the extremes for the higher sets. But I've been working on finishing all the explorations at least once as well as finishing the achievements.

Good luck on your endeavor!

Posted by: Sportsfan666 Oct 26 2017, 01:06 PM

Thanks. I have Through the Looking Glass (on that one now), A Study in Pink, and everlasting flame. Plus there were apparently +3 legendary explorations that got added while I was on hiatus. I still have another two explorations I need to complete but I'm not sure what they are. I organize the badge achievement Pokemon and work on leveling them whenever I start everlasting flame.

edit - got sidetracked and decided to organize my PC. Its gonna be hell but I think it'll be worth it in the end.

Posted by: Shaoo Oct 27 2017, 09:48 AM

It's always difficult for me to find the good pokemon during an exploration. And I don't talk about the berries interactions! I guess that's why I never succeed by doing the achievement of the three explorations in one day. I'm too slow and I never find what a need quickly xD

Oh man, I agree so much. It's not so bad when the amount needed is less than a hundred, but when you get ones like TBD or DoTW, they hold you up for days, regardless of how active you are.

Speaking of, I'm only on task 5 of DoTW and the month's almost over. I'm almost afraid to see what next month's explos will be, because I might miss them entirely.

Halloween's coming up. Only just put up decorations yesterday. Still need to get candy. I don't know how many trick-or-treaters to expect, but I like to err on the side of leftovers.

@Shaoo: Same actually. I'm on TLG now and it took forever just to find the Pokemon I needed, and even then they were in their base formes. Just snagged one of the four already ready from the Safari though~

@Alex: Yeah, I specifically got the 75 win streak awhile ago in the subway so I could get the EXP Share to help me grind TBD. I want to try that exploration whenever we get another plus day.

...so, as you mentioned this topic now, I guess I'll take the opportunity to ask people here. Do you perhaps have a double Creepy Crustle Art trinket you can trade with me? That's the only October one I need. Pretty please?

You don't want the army of Arceus?


At the moment I'm content with the one I have, the army will have to wait lol.gif.

I went to bed last night with my throat feeling a bit funky. I woke up this morning and the roof of my mouth and the back of my throat are so sore. I've been feeling a bit off the past week or so, at least I know why now. I normally get some sort of cold/flu around this time of year. It looked like it was holding off, but my luck didn't hold out.

The scavenger hunt task today was a relief over leveling a Pokemon to XX level. I don't mind clicking to level up but with no multipliers it makes egg hatching last a while. I have completed all of the tasks so far, I definitely need the prize points.

Radioactive Taiyaki
Spooky Ball
Evil Eevee Plush
and...
Creepy Crustle Art (sorry I can't there)

I have a bunch of doubles of other October trinkets I can trade

Thank yous to people breeding eggs I don't have!

The Zygarde [Cell] and Magikarp variant sprites are beautiful! :]

Sorry, can't help either :I I don't have doubles of any of those (and 0 of the last smh). But I'll keep you in mind. If I get one double or two I'll give them to you. No need to trade. ;D

On the topic of trinkets. I took the opportunity October gave me to actually try and expand my trinket collection I had neglected since set Eight. I was making offers all week and managed to get my 56% up to 79% relatively easily, but now 80% looks like it's miles away.
Any tips from you veteran collectors, on how I should go about getting the rarer stuff? I always aimed at offering a trinket at least 10% of the users didn't have, but it doesn't seem to matter much in the special set trinkets. Also if anyone knows what is the optimal amount of interactions per day to maximize Pokechests I'd love to hear it, diminishing returns is very apparent after 6k.

Also if anyone has a spare "Purple Sludge" I'd trade for it, it's the only R1 trinket not part of a special set I'm still missing.

I'm breeding Togedemaru since it seemed like no one else was, along with my precious Shroomish. Thankfully, there's one other person breeding Shroomish, so there's only no eggs most of the time.

Posted by: Mikaku Onchi Oct 29 2017, 05:44 PM

@Larryturbo, I didn't find any info on that in the help tab, so I can't help you on that. Maybe someone who's more informed can.
And I'm low on Purple Whisp too, I obtained one through trade not too long ago :U
It would be nice if more people used the market, just saying.

Well, to offer a little advice here, try to have different people on your pal pad and trade trinkets with them. I sometimes offer my trinkets to mutuals who need them to thank them too.
In the Market, when making an offer, bare in mind the number of people who need the trinket you're planning to offer. If it's a trinket 2 people are offering and it says 0/2 people need this trinket don't offer it, it won't be accepted. Wait until you have something better to trade or talk to someone who's willing to trade.

Hope this helps.

I actually wonder how Reeses, Warhead and Redhots candy taste. I suppose Redhots is more...spicy and Reeses is chocolate?


To my understanding Reeses is just a sweet peanut butter chocolate sweet

aka the best candy fight me

I kinda forgot this site existed

I blame Overwatch and college work

Add me. if you want, I am almost sure I can gift you Crustle thingie. Not sure about others, have to check

Happy Halloween, everyone!

Huh. I'm kind of surprised it's not a multiplier day, to be honest.

Posted by: Sportsfan666 Oct 31 2017, 12:23 AM

I used chance power and opened 100 pokechests. Got me from 1774 to 1811 unique trinkets. +10 from trades I just accepted. And I have 275 rarity 5+ trinkets that I have duplicates of. I might try expanding my collection.

Posted by: Venusaur King Oct 31 2017, 08:41 AM

I had another thought about what might make it easier to acquire rarely bred eggs that doesn't involve incentive cards or a second breeding slot- enable us to get our self-bred eggs from the Shelter! Even if I'm the only person breeding Pokemon X, instead of one egg an hour, I'd have access to all the ones I've bred, same as everyone else.

Posted by: Luneon Oct 31 2017, 11:07 AM

Happy Halloween to you as well!
What have you guys planned for today? Any special or just another usual Fall day?

Posted by: Synx Itax Oct 31 2017, 11:07 AM

Happy Halloween, all! I haven't been around much because of a trip this month that took a lot of time out of my schedule as well as work stuff. Hopefully everyone has a great day today filled with candy, costumes, and plenty of spooky fun (if you're celebrating). happy.gif

Here's an interesting note: leftover pumpkins (carved or not) can often be donated to animal sanctuaries to use as enrichment. If you happen to live near one, please consider donating if possible! (Not ones that have been treated with bleach or anything, obviously.)

I'm seemingly eternally at around 82% when it comes to Trinkets. I had more at one point, but I haven't been keeping up with them. :/

Also, keep collecting those Zygarde cells! It'll be worth it. wink.gif I'm at 68 so far.

I'm a little halfway through maxing out my cube. I'm hoping to get a lot of them hatched today.

I have to take my nephew trick or treating in a few hours but I'm going to hopefully grind level my scavenger poke before then.

edit; Geez, i grabbed some steel types so I could toss one in the hunt. One of them hatched with a whopping 25 IVs. Four of its stats aren't even above three. Not even one is double digits.

Posted by: Darky Oct 31 2017, 02:59 PM

Happy Haloween to you all!
For me this is just a regular day, but at least I'm staying at home, chilaxing.

Posted by: Sportsfan666 Oct 31 2017, 03:06 PM

Done with my level grinding so I don't have to worry about that later. I'm thinking about starting a new shiny hunt if anyone wants to race. My last challenge her ended a lot faster than I expected so I'm back at it. I'd prefer a 5120 egg Pokemon that I don't have in my dex yet. I already have all the plates so type doesn't matter to me. Message me if you're interested~

Posted by: Mikaku Onchi Oct 31 2017, 03:25 PM

Happy Halloween gpx+! Hope you all have a good one.
For me, this is just a regular day as Halloween is not a festivity we celebrate here. (Well, I say this, but some people actually celebrate it?? I don't know why tho it may be because it's fun grin.gif)

I suffered a little disappointment today :I I had bought a Pokemon Heart Gold copy in the beginning of the month from a Portuguese seller who guaranteed me that the game was the EUR version and not the USA one. The price was really good too. Well, received it today and BAM, USA version. Already sent him a mail to receive my refund. I totally warned him I was only interested in the EUR version. I hate liars.

Tomorrow starts November, it's hard to believe. The month of my birthday and POKEMON USUM. My sister already pre-purchased the two versions, the US for her and the UM is my birthday present happy.gif Can't wait.

Also, sorry for asking again, if someone has the trinket Creepy Crustle Art they can trade, tell me please. I'll offer, like, 4 or 5 trinkets for it. Please.

EDIT:
@Synx Itax, I'm eager for those Zygarde formes, I'm already at the max of Zygarde Cube energy, we can't pass the 200 right? I think I'll get the complete form first and then the awesome doge, 20 cells are easy to hatch. Thank you for everything ♥

I would, if I had a pumpkin :P
Although I'm sure that the local zoo has quite a stock of stuff themselves.
