YOOOO' everyone!!!
I AM JUST...
WOW.
This SWSH was SCARY but also super exciting in a lot of ways! If we Mala hadn't managed to pull off that comeback... Which by the way GOD DANG MALA YOU GUYS ARE THE BEST. Like SERIOUSLY, that comeback was just AMAZING I am in AWE. Huuuuuuge R O U N D of applause to all of you.

And you Wulfs? PHEEEEEW you made us WORK HARD. I'm also super proud of y'all as well because I saw all that effort as well! Same goes to Azurite! I know that the member count can be disheartening but the only thing I can say is that you guys REALLY can do it. You've both have won multiple SWSH, some in a row, so NEVER GIVE UP!

For now, tho', we all rest a little bit until the next SWSH. Hope to see you all there as well! grin.gif

As for GPX? I see Regi and Victini! Normally I would go for the most recent legendaries, but Victini's explo is super easy and fun so THERE I GOOOO...
Once I actually finish the Kyurem explo, woops. Also, TRINKETS! WHOOOOOO!
I'm excited to know if we'll have a coin event or not... If we do tho'... Well, gotta warm up those fingies then! And if we don't, that's also fine.... GOTTA WARM UP THOSE FINGIES FOR MORE ARCEUS!

Have a great night everyone! grin.gif

I am looking forward to spring weather stepping it up a notch! Still another few weeks with "maybe snow" ARGH but the trees and flowers seem to be optimistic and are surging forth.

Congrats Malachite for pulling together and bringing this hunt home! (And Special Shoutout to Rookie for such amazing cheerleading)

Also a huge round of applause to Wulf for nearly pulling the rug out from under us here - as well as congratulations to everyone who hatched a shiny!

I'm going to enjoy the Regi and Tapu explos this month!

That was a well fought shiny hunt. Congrats to everyone who secured their shiny(s) and thanks for the at-times nail biting race to all who participated.

Not sure what I'll be exploring this month (it would be nice to get back to exploring though, that's for sure!) but I'll keep an eye out for something fun.

I pre-ordered my expansion packs for Violet so I'm definitely looking forward to those. I still haven't secured either the ground shaking titan or the earthworm titan. It seems, no matter how far around I try to go, despite the internet telling me I should go for the earthworm one first, my Pokemon levels can't defeat what's in the way of that one. So it looks like I am headed to some ground shaking fun. LOL

Glad to see the Galarian Slowpoke family in! The sprites are really good. grin.gif

Congrats to Wulfenite for putting up a good fight!

I'm going to try to get through a huge chunk of my pokechest backlog this month. I've been slacking and more sky gifts never hurt anyone.

Congrats to everyone who got shinies! We gave it a good run, Wulfs, kept things interesting, and brought it down to the wire. Credit to Malachite, that rally really paid off! The new additions' sprites look great too.

Huge thanks to Rookie Roo for the cheerleading here as well. The win would not have been possible without them.

I already had all 3 as is often the case if oldie pokies are chosen so I was done on the first day with a token 1 shiney and went back to sleep. Then Rookie Roo sent out the "call to arms" so I went and checked the SWSH page to see this amazing battle happening with only a couple of days left! I thankfully managed to kick out an extra 2 shineys for our total.
