May Community Thread!

The April 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!

May Egg Distribution!

How to get an egg from this event

• You must keep at least one slot open in your party.
• You MUST have logged in sometime on GPX+ in the last two weeks.
• You can not be in the restricted group.

IMPORTANT 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.

Event dates and what's being handed out

• May 2nd: Diancie - Winner: Running on Ice - 200 eggs
• May 3rd: Fake Groudon - Winner: Natsume Reiko - 200 eggs
• May 4th: Yveltal - Winner: Gryphaena - 200 eggs
• May 5th: It expresses its feelings by smacking its scales. Metallic sounds echo through the tall mountains where this Pokémon lives. ~ Jangmo-o ~ 200 eggs
• May 6th: A guardian deity of the Alola region. Touching them is said to restore good health immediately. ~ Tapu Lele ~ 200 eggs

[Jacin Tatt]

Another month, another egg hand out... Hopefully get something decent out of it.

[Amberfunk]

Happy may! I will definitely be waiting for the 5th. I'm almost positive I know what pokemon it is and would love to get it. Although a chance for a shiny fake groudon would be good but I can wait for that.

[Asbel Lhant]

Looks like I'm saving my slots for when the Mystery eggs roll around, they sound interesting.

Last month went by too fast, come on 2017, slow down .

[Shadow Fennekin]

Mystery 1 is 100% Jangmo-o
I think I'll go for him or mystery #2.

[Synx Itax]

Seriously, it terrifies me how fast April went by. Just like that, it's May. I'm not a fan of the speed of this year. :/

I'd BETTER remember to leave a spot open on May 5th. It has to happen. I have to not forget!

Also, let's get more pages in the Community Thread this month. Of course, I'm not helping by not being around... ><

[Running On Ice]

Let's say for me, in one hour,


IT'S GONNA BE MAY


Now that I got that out the way, I'm definitely trying for the 6th, because that sounds like Tapu Lele. Then there's the Diancie I'll be getting tomorrow, not to mention I'm doing the Diancie exploration again, so that's two chances for a shiny one.

EDIT:

Please feed her a berry!

Just managed to defeat Red. Second try. Was at a stand still at the end with venusaur and my ferrothorn. Had to use swords dance a few times to keep doing some damage since it kept healing itself.

Little guy needs to wake up

[Natsume Reiko]

Man choices choices choices...Got all the chore scavenger tasks done this month huzzah, points galore. Wonder what else is around this month.

[NefariousKing]

Will definitely try for the 6th if it really is Tapu Lele!
It's on the weekend before finals though, so I'll probably have to place a physical note beside the computer to remember to leave a slot open for it. No doubt I'll forget since I'll probably be too preoccupy.

Set an alarm on your phone ASAP for that day at that time? x)

Good luck to everyone on their finals! I remember those days... sigh.

Missed just one Scavenger Hunt task. Bah. But getting all those Prize Points is still neat.

[Eponadis]

So now it's May. I can't say I am missing April. Snow on one day and hot weather the other day is nothing for me
Really hoping for thia month that our house will get finished so we can start moving things from our current flat. There will be so much to decorate and new furniture to choose. I am looking forward to it.

I just started the Diancie exploration. Was hoping for it because it should be the last I am missing for the achievement and I need the egg dex entry as well.

Hard decision with the monthly distribution though. I did hope for Xerneas, because I am also missing its egg entry, but two mystery eggs sounds even better! Hopefully I will remember to leave a slot open the right days only.

Have a great May everyone!

[Shadow Fennekin]

That's Lele? Oh....
I think I'll risk it and just hold out for her. I mean, Jangmo-o can breed and Lele can't. I'd much prefer Fini and Bulu being the only Tapu's I'd need if we ever get a Tapu exploration

[RicFule]

I don't know why it would be Jangmo-o in the first place. Yes, the hints make it seem like it is, but I don't think it would be classified as Very Rare or Novelty. And I don't believe we've had a distribution pokemon that WASN'T in those two categories. Idaknow. I guess we'll see.

I didn't get it at first either, but I'm guessing because it's considred a pseudo-legend, if I'm not mistaken?

Oh yeah! Thank you, I forgot that can be done on the phone; setting an alarm right now.

The first mystery egg is definitely Jangmo-o, the description is it's dex entry for Sun word-for-word, so it probably is because it's a pseudo-legendary.

Edit:

Berries would be appreciated.

Wow, it's gonna be really difficult to decide which days to go for this month.
Although knowing me, my forgetfulness might decide for me...

Also, in case any Hitchhiker's Guide to the Galaxy fans are reading:
Don't forget 25th is international towel day, you hoopy froods!

[Cycloneblaze]

Halfway through exams! They've been going good so far, just three more to do and then I'm free! to look for a job
I'll definitely be hoping for Kommo-o, I have one on my Moon team. The Tapu would be nice too. I guess I'll fill my party until then.
How is everyone this sunny Monday morning?

[eevee64]

April was such a busy month for me. First two weeks were filled with tests and assignments, then the next two I was on holiday. Kinda glad to be back into my normal routine now :P

May also means that my birthday is coming up Same day that Fire Emblem Echoes is released here, so doubly looking forward to it!

It also looks like May is going to be bringing me some baby birdies too...my breeding pair of lovebirds are sitting on eggs at the moment :> Should hatch in a couple of weeks!

Will still be working on DotW as my exploration for this month. At first I saw Diancie in the distribution and thought I'd go for that, as I need a second for my living dex. But now I think I'll hold out for the mystery on the 6th

And also, Guardians of the Galaxy vol.2 is amazing
