Oh yay! It's the staff's birthday month! I always forget about that haha.

And YES, GOTTA GET ME A GROUDON THIS MONTH.

Welp, also gonna have to check out the prize for the shiny hunt. I got pretty lucky with my inactivity.

New month means new explorations!

Happy Birthday to all of the staff!

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Jul 31 2018, 11:05 PM

My, a fair amount of staff members were born this month....fair amount of my family was born this month too, including my mother. Happy birthday to you all!

I may go for one of the genie trio first this month, I believe I still need the blue one. Ran out of Reveal Glasses though, so I can't get the alt form just yet. sad.gif

Happy birthday Staff!! =D

I still want to skip to September though, I was informed today I get to see my itty bitty at my 36 week check-up. Then in October I get to snuggle her to death! D= Not really. (but October is my families month. Grandmother, Mother, Daughter and a cousin I lost when he was young. He would be 28 this year - I think my Aunt is hopeful my itty is born on his birthday)

As for Shiny hunt - sunfish did not yield me purple. =/ Probably shouldn't have just clicked whatever with three days to go (when i came back) - only 54 of those bad boys compared to the others having 200+ Ah, well. Congrats to Azurites for winning the most hatched! =D

And...I'll go for the Mansion and the Trio. Tornadus and Terrakion are my lowest IV'ed out of all the ones I can go for --- so hopefully I can get above 87! =D Or shiny. ^-~

Is what we get from the voucher active? It did not seem to work for what I thought it should.

That's the one I thought it should work on. I must be doing something wrong.

EDIT - Or not. The one Pikachu I currently have is female, so ...

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Jul 31 2018, 11:55 PM

...Well, if you're an extreme completionist, then I suppose the new prize is all the more reason to start building up a small army of Pikachu. At least the Eggs are easy to hatch compared to other things.

Posted by: Natsume Reiko Aug 1 2018, 12:57 AM

No offense but that image looks slightly phallic.

I need all the things in the exploration this month and can only choose two. FML.

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Aug 1 2018, 05:42 AM

Okay, I know the black lines coming from the pencil in the little picture up there are supposed to look like the pencil is drawing something, but for some reason I see them as tiny legs.

Posted by: Primaxal Aug 1 2018, 07:02 AM

No idea for what I'm going this month. Maybe both trio explorations.

Posted by: Asbel Lhant Aug 1 2018, 07:05 AM

Interesting choices this month, probably won't get much chance to do any of the explorations this month. I'll probably try Victini, would love a shiny one.

Posted by: Luneon Aug 1 2018, 08:05 AM

Really liking the SWSH item this time, and the price as well. Bought 5 right away.
Thanks!
Looks like I'll have some Pichu to hunt. I originally failed to complete that one so I guess I'll just have to hunt it once again.
Pichu are pretty nice so~

Happy new month everyone! Pink celebi attempt it is ^^

Posted by: Celes Chere Aug 1 2018, 02:16 PM

If anyone has Patrats...please for the love of Arceus, release them. I think the 17 users doing Mansion will never pass step 6 since there is no rats in the safari. (or at least just me and one other poor soul as of right now).

I've released the literal one I had, but given how even the Eggs don't show up all that often that probably won't help much. I suppose it's a start though.

Posted by: Natsume Reiko Aug 1 2018, 04:55 PM

I found one in the lab and released it as soon as I could. The buggers are hard to find. So will Nick and Jeff grace us peasants with their presence?

I consider myself more peasant than you active members these days!

Happy Birthday to Jeff, David, Leila, and most importantly, myself! grin.gif

Hah! OMG it's a sign!

Nah you're not a peasant. :P

Yo, it's not your birthday yet! Come back on the 18th. I'll say it then. You're trying to cheat.

On a note which I completely forgot to bring up earlier, is there ever going to be an end to the amount of Trinkets that are available to collect? The list just keeps on expanding.

I'm probably going to close trinkets submissions for good at the end of the year. The only new ones added will be the ones that are already submitted, but have yet to appear yet.

Alright, thanks for letting me know. I've been wondering how many more would be released.

Posted by: Natsume Reiko Aug 2 2018, 08:30 PM

Oof that's a shame. So any other hints of what's to come? Any surprise multipliers for each staffer's b-day?

If we told you, it wouldn't be a surprise. grin.gif but, I'd just say the big hint is in my super faboo art.

Sounds like whatever's coming up is certainly going to be interesting in any case! I'll just wait and see what happens.

Maybe it's an Egg design challenge? Haven't had one of those in a while...Though I suppose since it's not really the season for it, that might not make sense.

OMG IT'S THE 12TH ALREADY. STILL NO FURTHER HINT?!

HAPPY 29TH NICK.

Posted by: AregularFrankiefan Aug 19 2018, 12:12 AM

Happy birthday Nick! Kind of alarming to think there's only a little bit of time left before we close the chapter on August. Not many months left in 2018..

Still got 10 days in the month so far but yeah 2018 is ending soon. I like that we got a bunch of multipliers out of it. Too bad my shiny rate's been low this month haha.

I appreciate the multipliers as well..and other than gaining 1 random shiny, my shiny rate for August has been abysmal as well.

August isn't my month it seems haha. Ah well. I'm still so excited for the results of the contest.

I can't say August is my month, either. And speaking of the contest, at this point I'm probably not going to get my entry in at all...got classes starting in a few days, and no matter how I try I can't seem to sprite properly. Oh well.

Doesn't have to be a sprite. You can do a concept thinger and that's all that honestly matters from what PokeNom said.

Posted by: Renaki Aug 28 2018, 12:06 AM

Wow, it's been so long since I've been gone, I've been wondering if anything has changed or not..looks like things have pretty much stayed the same for the most part, except I see a few new changes have been made on the Pokemon side of things since the new gens had been released! Looking forward to shiny hunting those especially! cat.gif
