Hello everyone!

pidgey.gif pidgey.gif pidgey.gif

Hope you're all doing well!
Been away from the site for a little while, because I've been working on something really special. Not a sprite this time, but...

A baby!

I've had a wonderful pregnancy, and now I'm happy to announce that my daughter was born on September 23rd! We're both doing well.
Her name is Ava, and I'd love to have a little event to celebrate this special moment with you all.

I'd love to do that with the following theme: birth BIRD!

This Coin event is all about Bird Pokémon, for two reasons:
1. Birds are my all-time favorite animals!
2. The meaning of 'Ava' is actually 'bird/birdlike', among other things. I only discovered this after deciding I loved this name, so it all came together so beautifully!

So all Pokémon eligible for this event will resemble birds. That means they won't necessarily be Flying-types. Plus, not all Flying-type Pokémon are based on birds (for example, Flying-type Noibat is a bat, so will not be in the event. Piplup is not a Flying-type, but will be included because it's a penguin).

How does it work?
  • The event will run from September 30th at 11:55pm EST (site reset), and will run for two weeks:
    It ends on October 14th at 11:55pm EST (site reset).
  • Everyone will start the event with 0 Coins. All the birdlike Pokémon below will hatch with a Coin!
  • Exchange your Coins for the available prizes in the Event Shop.
  • The Event Shop will be open until October 21st at 11:55pm EST (site reset).

  • Cramorant
  • Delibird
  • Doduo
  • Ducklett
  • Eiscue
