June Community Thread!

The May 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!

June 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. There have been about 3k users online daily and there are only 1,750 eggs going out, so that at least gives you a little more than a 50% chance at getting something.
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

• June 2nd: Thunderstorms in the area? Look closely and you might find this Pokémon hanging about. ~ Zapdos ~ 350 eggs
• June 3rd: Keldeo - Winner: The Majestic Mr L - 350 eggs
• June 4th: Valentacool - Winner: RicFule - 350 eggs
• June 5th: Heatran - Winner: Nostalgic River Shadow - 350 eggs
• June 6th: Not fond of warmer regions, this Pokémon cruises around arctic environments. ~ Icy Horsea ~ 350 eggs

[Much Lawlz]

Exciting exciting! I wonder what the first pokemon is?

[Asbel Lhant]

I still can't believe half the year is gone already and it doesn't feel like it. We've been getting temperatures in the negatives still, it is June, not September.

I'm going after the first or last Pokemon for the distribution. I'm hoping to get the first one the most so I'll cross my fingers for that one.

Well yesterday was crazy on the site, I got Prankster 4 times . I totally wasn't expecting to get that, I haven't seen it in a while. None of them were shiny though, one is still waiting to hatch(darn hour long cooldowns).

[Mamanator]

Welcome to June Everybody!

Sweet, am I the first to come on here? Surely not as I'm sure others are posting quicker than I.

I'm hoping for a late birthday present by getting the June 2nd Event Pokemon, but I guess I'll have to be actively active and keep a space free. Pretty much all of this month's Pokemon are pretty good choices. Loving the Heatran one, given my location and the "official" start of summer. Yeah. It works. LOL

In other news... now that my shiny sentry has failed me ever so badly, I can actively search for the Poke Hunt entry this week. So here's hoping to some success in that regard. Not sure yet what the prize was/is for the May SWSH as I haven't looked and am on my way to bed.

So good night All. Good night world. And good night moon. I'll see you all on the flip side when I'm at work at my normal time.

[Synx Itax]

Ooh, looks like we have a nice pair of mystery Pokémon this month. I'm guessing some kind of electric and some kind of ice type. x)

I hope everyone in the US had a good Memorial Day weekend! Mine was not too bad. Got some things done around the house, started a more intense workout routine, and just did a lot of relaxing.

[Shadow Fennekin]

Hm......
Well, I have all the known ones so I'll try for a Mystery day and get surprised. The last one intrigues me. I'm certain the first is Thunderus or maybe Raikou

Possibly Thunderus for the first one. And Articuno for the last?

[eevee64]

Merry June everyone! June means start of winter break for me so I'm happy

Hopefully now that uni is almost done, I'll have some time to actually click and get my current run of DotW over with. Then I should have a chance before the end of the month to do Kyurem and Thundurus' explorations to get their forms for my living dex ^^ I'm thinking the first mystery egg in the distribution might be Thundurus but I'm going to go for the last mystery because I don't know what that is off the top of my head :P

I'm also halfway to the infamous 75 win streak in the Battle Subway. My Ferrothorn/Azumarill duo is awesome xD

[Wayward Rosalind]

Eep My Birth month <3 No pokemon on the 7th huh? Haha. I might just get whatever comes to me this month.

Been super busy lately. Had my first day off in a week. Ah ready to sleep and do things tomorrow.

[Volmise]

I can't believe it's summer already. The heat really managed to sneak up on me.

[Bonnie Clyde]

I was thinking that the first one would be either Thundurus or Raikou. Definitely leaning more towards the former, though.
Not so sure about the last mystery one - I would go around looking through Pokedex entries and such, but I'm not really in the mood for that.

And I'm not quite sure which one I'm gonna go for - maybe Keldeo if I don't go for one of the mystery ones.
Also not sure which explos I'll be doing either.

Anyways - Hello June! even though it's still May here for about another hour.
Can't wait to see what the SWSH prize is once it's released - and also for the Sun/Moon info! Super hyped!

Looking through the Novelty and Very Rare pokemon led me to believe that it's either Articuno or an entirely new one.

And I went and bought myself the new voucher, since I failed to get a SWSH shiny this time. Might end up buying more if I need to after it's completed.

[Rhapsody]

help when did it become june

help when did my life start going by this fast I want to put life on pause fff

Two more months until I finish my job. Then I have August off. Gonna relish that sooooo muuuuuch.

Not relishing the heat though. I need to leave my AC on all day because my apartment is a heat trap.

[pumpkinking0192]

Ugh. 775 eggs and I still didn't manage to hatch a shiny Baltoy for the SWSH. This is the first one I haven't completed within the month in probably more than two years. Ack!

Aw, well, at least the voucher's available in the Prize Shop. This is why I always keep some Prize Points in reserve for.

[Synx Itax]

Manaphy is available for download for all of you ORAS/XY players in North America. I think I'll go ahead and grab mine. That's one of the ones I needed for my living dex in Poké Bank, too.

I'll probably try and go for the June 2nd mystery egg, but knowing me, I'll completely forget about it.

Edit: My 7th year anniversary was back in May. So weird. @_@

[Sofia]

First mystery Pokemon is either Raikou or Thundurus. I'd bet money that the last mystery Pokemon is Icy Horsea, based off the Pokedex description for Icy Seadra: "An arctic-dwelling variant of Seadra. It has adapted to subzero climates and prefers them to warmer regions."

[Hitaka5Ever]

I recently hit 6 years myself! Its seriously felt like my 3rd was just yesterday XD It amazes me how fast time flies lol

Didn't hatch my shiny in time, like I knew I wouldn't (I was too slow, could hardly grab any eggs bc I had to refresh almost 20 times to see another egg, and my new laptop makes mass clicking way too difficult bc I picked a shite processor) but luckily I had 180 points to spend

[Running On Ice]

For the mystery I wouldn't be surprised if it's either Thundurus or Zapdos, though I don't remember when was the last time the second one was given away. I'm still trying to figure out which one I want.

I'm surprised Wulfenite won again. I wasn't paying much attention this time around.


Also, please give Mesprit here some Cheri berries? I'm doing this one and Kyurem for this month.

[Vande]

Woo 1st of June. Had a great weekend at London MCM Comic Con. Still tired as heck but sooo worth it.
Now to go out for a gaming day with friends lol.
