Global PokédeX Plus Forums _ Bug and Errors _ Why was my hunt cancelled?

Posted by: ShadyKitten777 Jun 20 2018, 04:07 AM

Hi, sorry if this is a simple fix but I'm really confused about something.

A while ago, I started a shiny race with another user. He hatched his shiny Drifloon on the 5th June, and I've not hatched mine yet, but for some reason the hunt comes up under "Incomplete & Cancelled Hunts", and says the race ended on the 14th June. I can say without a doubt that I did not cancel this hunt, I don't even think I could have cancelled it accidentally because I rarely visit the Shine Recorder page.

The conditions of the race were that the person who hatched the fewest eggs would win, but I haven't even hatched a shiny, so there is no reason for it to have been cancelled. I remember I set the option to "continue as a regular hunt if the race ends without me hatching a shiny" but like I say, there's no reason for the hunt to have ended in the first place since I haven't got a shiny yet, and the hunt isn't being continued as a regular one anyway?

I'm wondering if this has happened because I haven't been overly active in the shiny race - I'm more focussed on getting the Wimpod I failed in the SWSH so I haven't been hatching too many Drifloon, but I don't see why I'd be kicked from the race for that, seeing as there was no time limit set?

There isn't even an option to restore the shiny hunt, it only gives me an option to delete it. I've attached a picture just in case my descriptions weren't the best.



I'd really appreciate some help with this, because I don't know what happened and I'm rather upset by it. I don't know why my hunt was cancelled, because I did not do it myself, and I'd really like the race restored so I can see if I actually win the race or not.

Thanks,
ShadyKitten777

Yes, it was because of that.

Also, note that if a user goes inactive in a "fewest eggs hatched" race after the other user has hatched their shiny, the race will automagically end a week after their last hatched egg.


From the shiny race info in the Recorder tab.

Thanks for letting me know. Is there any way to restore the race? If you cancel shiny hunts I know you can pick it back up within an amount of days, but is there a way to do that here?

Not in this case, no.
