"This Pokémon lets out a billow of steam to hide in the fog to escape confrontation"
Volcanion? It sounds like him
Mew for sure!
I cant wait untill sun and moon! I was so pumped for the fire starter but it looks like im sad again about it. I was hoping the theory of different final evo's was going to be true but, alas it was not. First time in a long time that ill be rolling grass for my starter!
The last one definitely sounds like Volcanion!
Also, the mystery image in the November Thread are the Gen 7 Starters! So maybe Gen 7 will come a lot faster than gen 6 did
November marks the start of my summer break! This is my last week of classes and assignments, then I'll have exams in a couple of weeks. I only have two and I'm not stressed about them, so I'm considering the end of this week the start of my break :P
Super excited about Sun/Moon coming out, and I'm also planning on going to a midnight screening of Fantastic Beasts when it's released, so I've got some things to look forward to later this month!
Hopefully I actually finish DotW this month (this has been my slowest attempt yet) so I can do some other explorations. Intrigued about the two mystery eggs this month Will probs go for one of them.
I can't believe it's November already. I love fall/winter, but I get all anxious towards the end of the year. This year, it's especially the case due to moving (we're STILL transporting/getting rid of stuff in the old house) and a host of other things that have been going on.
I'm not particularly excited for Sun/Moon, but hey, new Pokémon games are great. I'm just getting Moon since I sort of stopped playing the companion game in each gen, and Rowlet will definitely be my starter. Sooooo not a fan of the other two's final evos.
I think I'll try for the mystery Pokémon to be handed out on the 6th.
Ooh if the last one is Volcanion, wonder if it will be out on the Voucher yet..
Woohoo November.
Having lots of birthdays this month. Seriously. Why is everyone born kn november lol.
Well... really love snowman Munchlax
Oh hey seems like this month's giveaway has several things I missed/don't have yet. What to aim for, what to pick... hmm. The last one sounds like it could be Volcanion, so..
Hard to believe that there's just two months left of the year. Time does fly by.
I know which Pokemon I'll be trying for for the giveaway. I just have to remember to keep my party full for the next four or so days. I think I also saw a Mudsdale in that image. I wonder what the one for the 5th is supposed to be.
Omg Volcanion on the 6th? 350 eggs won't be enough :p Though, I still have a voucher I've been keeping for just this purpose...
In other news the wait for Sun and Moon is killing me! I haven't been reading any of the spoilers since all the Pokémon leaked, but after the 18th I'll have to stay off the internet for a week. Oh and did I mention that the games come out just before my study week? Yep, I'm gonna fail my exams XD
helloooooooooooooooooo
might get around to finishing DotW this month
also holy fuck GTAV is massive
Wow, it's November already. The mystery pokémon on the 5th should be Roggenmorpha. I think I will be going for that one.
Amazing that it's November already!
Since I'm a fan of Mew, I think I'll be trying for Mew on the 3rd. And if that doesn't work out, then one of the final two because they do sound kind of interesting. Especially the one on the 5th
I hope Halloween went ok for those who celebrated it yesterday
The "it's a mystery" entries are surely mysterious this month. And nice to get! Can't wait!
I will just wait until the sixth to leave in a space, since the last one sounds like a Pokemon I have never gotten before.
I started Mansion of Gods as I do not have any of the Kami trio yet. I think I might be off to a smooth start in this exploration. I plan to do Beneath the Frozen Forest next for Kyurem, though I am not using my Light Stone until I somehow get a Shiny Kyurem or somehow get my hands on another Light Stone.
Man, October sure flew by. Hard to believe it's November already! It's good though, since 2016 has been such a trying year for a lot of people it seems, so hopefully 2017 is better, and we're almost there! Plus, Sun and Moon are less than three weeks away!! I'm super hyped for that.
It's also been about a year since I rejoined the site, and I definitely don't regret it. I've made a lot of progress, and I hope to continue doing so. The last event Pokemon definitely sounds like Volcanion, so I'll definitely aim for him.
Ooooh, I might have to leave my party closed until the 4th, and see if I get any of the last three! All of those would be interesting to get.
Also, today is my anniversary with Capn McMuffin!!!!
I was actually surprised I won the raffle for this month, I barely posted in October. I'm surprised my one measly entry actually got picked. I went with Deoxys this time, I got a bit of inspiration thanks to Destiny Deoxys .
It is scary how fast time is going by, it is November already? This year has positively flew by, soon it'll be Christmas! I wonder what this months shiny hunt is going to be? I'm getting excited that we only have 17 more days and Sun/Moon will be out . I'm still going to go with Litten even though its final evolution is less than desired. I'll just evolve it to its second form and just lob an Everstone at it. I'm more interested in what the Legendary theme is going to be.
Now let's see if I can FINALLY keep my party full during egg distributions until one I want comes up. xD
Still stuck on DotW, but after that I'll do Keldeo and either the guardian or kami trio.
Since I finished Death of the World I think I'll do the Beneath the Frozen Forest
...I still think I am the only one who likes the final evolution of the Fire-type starter.
I am also pretty excited for the launch of Sun and Moon. As I said before, I am definitely going for Moon with the Fire starter. Once the game comes out, I think it will be safe to change my avatar again.
Also, I hate this Chromebook right now. I cannot use the apostrophe because the Chromebook thinks that is the symbol you put over certain letters in some words in the Spanish language. And the worst part is that I do not know how to fix it.
Happy day after Halloween Everybody. Welcome to November.
On the home front news things are definitely improving if not slowly. My hubby is still out of work; we're figuring at least until his appointment tomorrow with our doctor and possibly for the rest of this week. I always knew he needed a vacation - I just wish he had listened to me.
He went outside last night for the first time since coming home on Saturday and I walked him two doors down to our neighbors so he could pop in and say hello and thank you for all that they've helped us through this past week. They've been amazing! I'm sure more people would've come to our aide, but he didn't want anybody to really know. "It's on a need to know basis" he told me. I think he was worried about the wrong people finding out and then he wouldn't be able to do his DPS volunteering (when he's cleared and ready) or maybe get fired from his full time job. He works at an auto body shop where he has to make x amount of $ a month. So being out for this long, I'm sure, has him in worry overdrive. But since they do offer short and long term disability, I'm hoping that he speaks with them about it so a little extra can come in for this week (or two) that he's been out of work.
On happier news... kudos to our November Winners! Love the Pokemon choices! Especially the Winter Snorlax. I'm seriously thinking of keeping my party open on that day, but the two mystery ones are really intriguing to me. Knowing (at least 90% knowing) what that final day release will be definitely has my interest. I'm just worried about everybody blocking their party until then and the odds dropping out of our favor as a result. Doh! Hey. It could happen, right? *eek*
Last night I picked up my eldest's most expensive Christmas gift. I got her the new Skyrim game (xbox one) and some guide book (although GameStop called it a bible, LOL) to go along with it. I just hope she can wait until the holidays for it now.
In other news... lets see... I'm very happy with the Scavenger Hunt because I was able to finish all the tasks this time around. It's been a while since I've done that so I was very pleased with that. I'm "this far" from my 1000 safe prize points again. Yeah. I like to keep a ridiculous amount on hand. I tend to have 15 of every item I can (the ones that don't have the 2 or 3 limit) and keep my prize points around 1,000 and my pass orbs are somewhere around 4 million. *snicker*
As for monthly explores I have to go see what we've got. I haven't been over there yet. I'm also excited because this is the month the Pokemon games come out, right? As it turns out, I also brought the guide book for that game, too. It just gets tiring trying to figure out what I'm supposed to do next in some Pokemon games, especially when I haven't played them in a while and I spend a couple days trying to figure out where I am and what I'm supposed to be doing. LOL
As for the SWSH, definitely looking forward to it. Hopefully I'll have better luck this month than I did last time around. I'll probably save the DotW explore for next month. That whole party lock thing has me shying away from it every time I even think about the explore. Oh. And, seeing as how I just looked at this month's explore, I know the two I'll be hoping to complete. Since I've only done them both three times and the others more, I'll be working on "Guardians" and "Protecting the Fragile". Guess there's no time like the present to get started so.... and awaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay weeeeeeeeeeeeeeeee go!
*EDIT*
Oh. Yuck! Now I see why I've only done "Guardians" 3 times. Those battles. Where the opposing teams swap and trade and you never know who you'll get when. Gah. I think I'll start with "Protecting" and, if I get done early enough, perhaps. Perhaps then I'll go back to the guardians. No promises though. Ugh.
yoooooooo~
Changed up my daycare pair *points to siggy* All the eggs look really similar...so I'll probably be hatching this time as opposed to with Florals where I was just donating the egg. Ooh, maybe I should start a hunt! *is thankful that unlike Bidofo there is actual a visible difference*
For explorations I'm doing Kyurem and Keldeo. Still holding out hope for that random shiny, haha! And...I agree that the last one is probably Volcanion. Not sure about the one on the 5th. Saw someone said Roggenmorpha? Hmm. ...That makes sense. I was/had been thinking one of the Lake trio tbh.
Ooo~ I don't know which event pokemon I should try for. They all sound fun. Maybe the second to last one.
I'm doing the spirit trio exploration. Then maybe Kyurem. Because he's so awesome. xD
Definitely going to try for a Mew on the 3rd. I've been wanting one!
Also really excited for the SWSH this month, the last one was my first despite being a site member since 2010 :P
Alright, it turns that my keyboard was set to US International, so I changed it and it's back to normal.
@Shadow Fennekin I do like the design of the other final evolutions of the Starter Pokemon, but the Fire-type starter was the one that appealed to me the most. I just think it looks really cool compared to the others.
@Mamanator Glad to see that everything is alright with your husband. I already got the Skyrim remake for free on Steam since I got all the DLC for the original, but the fact that there was a glitch in the beginning that made everyone go faster and therefore hit triggers earlier sort of turned me off. So instead I started a new character on the original Skyrim, which is a female Argonian I aim to be a one-handed light armor melee, with some focus on blocking and blacksmithing.
Oh, the new Site-Wide Shiny Hunt is already up. It's still not active, but it seems like the November SWSH will be for the three Burmies
(why is there only one burmy emoticon?)
Burmy I've already got a shiny mothirm but I need a trash/sand cloak mothrim and wormadam. So I'll sign up later.
I would need to get all three of those for a living dex. Luckily for me it didn't take long for me to find female ones the last time I worked on Burmy, so I'm just going to need those three.
As for explorations, I'm doing Mansion of the Gods right now and Protecting The Fragile later because I haven't done either longer than the other two.
Well, that's a pretty awful SWSH selection. There's no real variety, shiny Wormadam looks almost identical to the regular one, and I already have an Insect Plate so I can't even get any shards out of it... I guess I'll just do one hunt to qualify for the prize and hope I get a Mothim instead.
So the SWSH options are already up? Huh, I thought we would vote for the Pokemon like the last two SWSHs, but I guess that means there is an excuse to work on getting the Insect Plate. I just hope I don't have to go through more repeated hunts than necessary, as while I do need a Shiny Mothim I don't want to have five Shiny male Burmy and no female ones. I just need to work on completing my Deino hunt before the SWSH. Meanwhile, I'll get started on working on my December Trinket submissions.
The fact that our SWSH options have been chosen for us definitely hints at what the reward will be... though what exactly it is remains a mystery. I'm excited though! I'm doing Mansion of Gods first and then Guardians, since I'm missing Tornadus, Thundurus, and Uxie. I'll probably grab the other kami from a voucher at some point, since I want to complete my Dex here and I'm impatient :p
I also really like the Fire-type starter for Sun and Moon, or the final evolution at least. I was a fan of the Grass-type from the start, and that's definitely still gonna be the one I use in my first run, but I'm definitely picking Fire now for my second playthrough.
You have got to be kidding me about the SWSH. I laughed when I saw the options. I knew as soon as I hatched the last two shiny burmies I needed last month, that it'd be my luck that I'd have to hunt these for the SWSH in the future. Didn't think it'd be this soon!
The two mysterious event giveaways got my attention. If it's true what people are saying about the last one, guess I'll hold out for that one.
NaNoWriMo also started but I'm gonna be sitting it out, I think. I can't seem to stay in a creative mood long enough to even put a story together.
Yeah, trying for november 6th this time.
btw, please feed this little girl
-explo Pokémon removed-
Lol can we have like a basic burmy egg sprite so we have more fiascos like we had with Flabebe? would really make my day lol.
Just purchased the Skyrim Special Edition for my laptop. Laptop actually has higher specs than minimum so we'll see if it plays well. It looks so so pretty, I really can't wait. It's gonna take about 3-6 hours to download though so I might just watch something then let it run overnight and hope it downloads.
Have this guy leftover from last months explos if you guys could feed him a Chesto berry pls?
http://r.gpx.plus/WQhGA
Haha I mention the SWSH in my post and then a couple hours later I see that we can already choose what we want to hunt. I decided to go with Burmy Ground for my first shiny hunt. I probably won't get more than 1 SWSH shiny this month, I have a feeling that work will be busy this month.
Well I didn't make cookies the other day but I DID make a butterscotch pudding pie. It is so good, I had to make two pies because I had too much filling left over. I grated up some chocolate to put on top and it was amazing. I'll definitely keep making them, it is a lot easier/cheaper to make than cookies.
I still need all of them for my shiny dex, so I don't mind this at all. (I'm not picky, as long as there's one or two I'm still missing, I'm fine with everything.) Should definitely be easier than the Flabebe hunt.
And I feel like I'm the only one who really doesn't like the fire starter. That might even be one of my least favorite Pokémon in general... Grass and water are both great, so that kind of depends on what else I want in my party. And considering there are two grass types I really like...
And if anyone wants to help me get rid of this help the poor Dedenne...
http://r.gpx.plus/vMCZA
Well, the SWSH could be interesting. I'm sure there is some sort of surprise in store. Luckily, this won't be as awful as the Flabebe hunt...
Also, we went out for dinner and one of the drinks I got tasted like bathbombs. Like, it tasted like Lush smells.
Yay to a new month!
I'm looking forward to some of these egg distributions, I think I'll be leaving a free space in my party the next couple days, being happy with whatever I get! <3
Can't say I'll be partaking in this shiny hunt, none of the burmy line really speak to me! I'd maybe risk it for a shiny mothim, but I'm not feeling that adventurous. I think I'll use November to try to finish my Drifloon hunt or get another flabele out of the way! I only need yellow and red now.
Good luck to anyone partaking in the shiny hunt!!! <3
So the SWSH. Trash, Trash and Literally Trash. Those Shinies barely have any changes. At least there's aDrive Mothim, who's Shiny is decent but...there's a 50/50 chance of getting that.
Well I got my Pokemon for the Poke Hunt this week. I lucked out and got a 137IV Eevee from the second egg I grabbed. I evolved it right away and used that for my entry. Now I don't need to spend half of this week looking for good Eevee eggs.
Currently playing a bit of Undertale Genocide run right now, trying to fight Sans at the moment. I am extremely late to the train for Undertale runs but I bought it last year. I never really played it much, I quit after Papyrus in the Neutral run. It isn't as hard as I thought it would be to be honest, I only make mistakes like forgetting to heal.
I have to go to the hospital tomorrow morning to see my family doctor. I've been having acid reflux since sometime in March and none of the medications he prescribed work. Even the one that is supposed to be the 'best' on the market stopped working after a month. I'm hoping to find out what other options I can take to relieve this. It's annoying not wanting to eat anything because acid reflux decides it doesn't like the food I'm eating. Lets just hope that I don't have to get bloodwork or anything done because I can't handle needles XD.
Back from a Quiz Bowl match at an away game. The junior varsity of our team lost by ten points, but the varsity of the same team won by 120 points.
@x Sam Don't worry, I doubt I'll ever get a Shiny Kyurem, hence why I said I'll get a White Kyurem if I get two Light Stones. Still, you're pretty determined if you keep a Legendary hunt for this long. I personally don't think I can do it. Hope you get your hard-earned Shiny Kyurem someday.
Just my luck, I can bet it's going to be the Litleo situation all over again and none of those Burmy will be male. I like Mothim but not really a fan of Wormadam.
I'll hunt the green one I guess.
I'm really excited for this month! I'm going to be 16 in 16 days c: I'm probably going to get Pokemon Moon from my dad. From everyone else, though, I asked for a glockenspiel. We looked at one today at a place in town and it wasn't too expensive. I'm probably going to sell one of my old guitars to help pay for it since guitar was never really my thing. I really love the glockenspiel, though!
I also did a gift exchange with a Disney theme and I got my gift yesterday. I got a decent-sized Stitch plush and some other cool stuff from Disney World! It came with a bunch of photo stickers of Stitch's adventures around Disney World, too
I don't have any shinies of the Burmy line, so I'm keen for the SWSH. Kinda hoping it ends up being like the infamous Flabebe SWSH, I thought that was really fun :P
I have a happy story about one of our birds, Mephisto the Magpie :> I'll put it in a spoiler because it's kinda long ^^"
I'm kinda curious as to why the Flabebe SWSH was so 'infamous' as I wasn't around for that, but hunting for a possible shiny Mothim sounds fun! though i guess it's up to luck whetehr you hatch a shiny male heh
@eevee64 Aw, Mephisto is so adorable! I'm glad she found her happy ending.
Good grief, the fiasco with the Flabebe was that bad? I'm glad that we know which Pokemon Egg is which by the name now. I'm also wiling to guess that the Novelty coming out of this hunt will be a Burmy. Maybe there will be a new item that changes the form or corrupts an egg into that form?
It's naked! Oh no!
Naked burmy would look amusing on the pokedex XD It might come from many possibilities, so I'll wait until we get more information about the hunt's choice. Maybe there aren't enough shiny burmys in the world? I'm really glad I got the raffle, have been searching the shelter for that munchlax and have had no luck. I'll make sure to keep my party egglocked until then.
I want a Sugarcoat Burmy. I know it's not quite the same as a cloak, but still...
As every 31st of October, I get dressed and stay in front of my door to give candies to the toddlers of the neighborhood. They are usually affraid because I only move when I hear people coming xD They are happy to be a bit affraid. Parents are happy about this, so I'm happy too. This year I was a kinda sort of Joker, with a long black wig, nobody recognize me, because I usually have red and short hairs.
21 days until Sun and Moon! Can't wait! <3 yeah In Europe it's on the 23rd =(
I think I already made my team, it's just about one pokemon that I don't know, if I will get another starter or not.
Have all a nice day!
Now that I see the naked Burmy, it's a possibility. Though that's sort of boring in my opinion. Why not make a new Cloak form instead? I love seeing what kind of stuff GPXPlus comes up with and anime-inspired Novelties can get a tad bit boring if its not that big of a difference from the original Pokemon.
Also, I really hate looking for Pokemon from the Safari Zone for tasks and not just hatch them, but I will not give up!
Interesting choice for the SWSH, gonna hop into it see if I get a winner like I did with the last one.
Today's my birthday anyhow!! Didn't get anything today cause Sun and Moon aren't out yet ;0 Mum's gonna be buying it for me cause I have no money and I must scream.
Maybe we'll get more than just Naked Burmy? I mean the past few SWSH have given us more than one Pokemon as an available prize.
Like the Ancients and Carbink
Yeeeeeeeesssss got a Deoxys! Then I get a Mew tomorrow, as winner of the raffle.
Damn, I forgot to fill my party, and got a Deoxys. Oh well, it's not like I had one before...
I got a strange black egg from the event today myself. ooh, haven't gotten this design before. lol this seems to happen a bit when i leave space in my party for exploration parts
@DraconicDM I forgot to fill up my party too. Oh well, no Volcanion for me, I guess.
Now that I'm on a computer, I can get started on making some Trinkets for December. And also find those Pokemon I need to get specifically from the Safari.
@eevee64: That's such a cute story and it's great that there's people like you willing to take care of sick birds. Mephisto is incredibly cute as well and it seems so adorable she still visits even when she's free
Burmy's an interesting choice for SWSH - it's been a long time coming, really. The opportunity's too good to miss!
I totally forgot that daylight savings has recently taken place in the UK, so the giveaway happened an hour earlier than I expected and I got a surprise Deoxys when I wasn't planning for it. Ah well, maybe it'll be shiny...
Just got myself a Carbink [Merrick] from the Safari Zone which was a nice surprise. All I need is Carbink [Bort] and then I can finally mega evolve my Diancie, leaving me with just the rest of the plate Arceus to get.
Still got a few plates to go through so I might actually start playing properly again. Any shiny my way would be nice, though. It's been a while since I hatched one let alone one of my own shiny hunts..
Yeah I forgot all about the 4 hour difference now until Sunday! Thankfully my party was full, still aiming for the November 6th egg though Hopefully I'll get it, would be nice!
e: How was everyone's Halloween? I was ill on Monday (still am) so I just spent it watching films in bed feeling sorry for myself.
Been looking into getting a tattoo as-well.. Bristol is a really arty place so those too many to choose from, I've decided what I want (eventually want a sleeve, given time and money). I'm really liking the idea of getting a watercolour looking tattoo of paper cranes or a hummingbird on my forearm. Thinking more the paper cranes for now.. looking at getting 2 or 3, possibly. Aaah so excited!
edit2: Looking at the entire thing to be based on nature with an obvious watercolour based style.. I think I've found someone around here who actually does that sort of stuff too!
I'm actually glad I got a Deoxys egg, as I don't have the Attack form yet. C:
Also, the Flabebe fiasco was both hilarious and frustrating. I started a hunt for a shiny Red Flabebe and ended up hatching a shiny Blue AND a shiny Yellow before I eventually found my shiny Red. Cx
I got my red eggs from the lab mostly - because the description said the colour.
So the Animal Crossing update came out today, and now I can't trade between my two towns anymore because my old 3DS doesn't have the update. And it doesn't work with my normal router so I have to hunt down the half broken one that's hiding somewhere in the basement.
But at least I have a reason to play again.
Cubs win the World Series, their first in 108 years . I stayed awake until 2 am watching this game and I'm so happy they won. I'm not a HUGE fan of baseball but I've been routing for them the whole series(after Toronto got knocked out at least).
My raffle winner Deoxys egg did not hatch shiny, oh well. I'm going to wait until November 6th(like a lot of people I noticed) before I empty my party. I'm interested in seeing what the final one will be, so I'm saving it for last. I already got my raffle egg so I won't care if I don't get one.
If I don't end up finding the two Pokemon I have to find from the Safari Zone by the time I get home, I might have to quit this exploration.
I submitted the first of my trinkets for the December set. I did my best to make them look good, so hopefully this one gets a go-ahead to be added to the collection so I can begin submitting the rest of the trinkets.
@Manah I haven't played Animal Crossing in forever. It might be because I'm more used to more action-oriented games, so something like AC comes off as a bit boring to me.
Instead of getting up early and trying to get some serious work done on NaNoWriMo, I stayed in bed for an extra hour, went out for breakfast, and now I have been watching Vines with a friend for the last twenty minutes.
I am so. goddamn. tired. I slept for a long time last night, but I've been missing out on sleep a lot lately because of trying to get the depo shot out of my system. Hot flashes are not fun.
Well, I got my Mew. Good luck to anyone trying for one!
I stopped paying attention to GPX and I accidentally got a Mew egg. Oops.
Also I hope anyone who wanted a Mew got one!
I FORGOT TO CLOSE MY PARTY AND GOT THE MEW EGG. I was hardly even on today. I was so frustrated that I released it. I was going for Volcanion but looks like I squandered that chance.
Not particularly excited by the choice of SWSH Pokémon this month, but more Insect Shards would be nice.
I love all three of the final starter forms, but Primarina is just so beautiful. *sigh*
Other than that, I'm actually kinda bored. Shiny hunting is getting repetitive for me, I already finished DotW twice, and I can't get more Mega Stones except by waiting for a Plus day. Release+ is filling up, so there's that.
On another note, I rediscovered Neopets, which I used to play all the time when I was little. Miraculously, they haven't wiped or frozen my account even though I haven't used it for years. Seeing all the old games still there, feeding my dying pets...the nostalgia is strong with this one.
Noooo. I left my party open forgetting it was a new month. Ended up getting Mew today =/
Guess who super-glued her fingers together today
On the contrary to you guys, I forgot to leave my party open today and get myself a mew. :C Do we know what the one before Volcanion is? Depending on whatever that is, as it stands I guess I'll go for volcanion instead.
@ariento sounds like an adventure lol!
Howdy all! It's raining cats 'n dogs over here and is complete with thunder and high winds. Go fall storms!!
I've been weeding my way s.....l..........o...............w....................l...................y through my current monthly explore and have finally stumbled across a poor, poisoned, Suicune. LE GASP! Who would ever!!! I take offense to that. Harumph! Guess if I stopped to read the story [again] I'd remember how this happened. At least I know how to cure it though! With a ton of sweetness!
So if you happen to bump into us in this wet weather, we'd appreciate you tossing us some of your sweet berries our way. http://r.gpx.plus/sZGGA Thank you!
In regards to the SWSHy, I'm all ready now. Got all 6 Burmy ready and raring to go. I just have to decide which style to start with. Hopefully luck will be on my side this time and I can find all 3. *starts cheerleading for Burmy* !! Rah! Rah! Ra........ oh foo. I was never a cheerleader. I'm sure that shows. LOL Any hows, definitely looking forward to the hunt.
Yeah I got Mew Egg as well. Ah well. There'll probably be an Exploration for Volcanion eventually so I'm not too mad.
Managed to get a mew egg and find a winter vulpix in the shelter right after finding out! Still failing at shiny eevee after 100 eggs but my sister (who I am in the shiny race with) has given up so at least I'll probably win! Also rather happy about the SWSH as I don't have any shiny burmys... Going for ground and may go for others after IF I manage to complete it...
Really glad I got that Deoxys a day or so ago! Thank you monthly giveaways, hahaha.
Wow! That was unexpected! My Rotom, IV 138, took first place! I was thinking it'd probably be closer to 3rd so... sweet sweet victory! *coddles the prize points*
I'm actually on my way to bed so I'll catch ya's all tomorrow. Hubby's got an AM doctor appointment so it'll be a late work start for me. Yay for the extra hour of sleep. for the reason why. But yes. He's still doing well and improving. Can only hope they'll release him for work and driving following tomorrow's appointment.
AHH! I wanna get that Snowman Munchlax tomorrow!
November already? Wow, at least my birthday is this month on the 18th (Sun/Moon Release date). I'm super excited for.
woo got a zap shard with a 139 iv rotom. Happily take that!
Nothing special with today, labs are done today so it's 2pm and i shouldn't probably start my 3000 word field report on ticks. Fun.
Glad I get a Mew egg! ^^ It's the first event I get seven years ago, so it has a special place in my heart.
Here's the team I would like to develop in my Sun team:
I hope the next SWSH will be for some of the new Gen 7 pokémon. I wouldn't mind an SWSH for the 3 new starters for example.
And please, feed my Kyurem with Rawst berries. He got badly burnt, and needs a lot more.

Since we're sharing planned teams
TGIF Everyone!
My husband's doctor appointment went well and he is released to return to work, drive, and climb stairs again. Guess I'll have to learn how to sleep with someone lying next to me again. LOL But seriously, that was great news (expected, but still a relief to hear) and I'm so happy that he can get back to a daily, normal routine. I'm sure he'll be all types of happy to feel useful again as well.
I've got some work things keeping me busy throughout the day but I plan to spend a lot of time clicking over here as well. Speaking of clicking, my wild Suicune is starting to feel better, but we're still stuck while it's down for the poisoned count. At least your berries are improving its disposition. It is nearly dripping with sweetness from all those wonderfully sweet berries you've all been feeding him. So if you'd like to throw some more at him today, I just know he'll be up and about and we'll resume our exploration again before the sun gets too high.

Oh, and I'm pretty sure you all know this already (because you're all more on top of the Pokemon scene then I am), but it looks like Game Stop has more code cards. This time for Genesect. Hopefully I can get mine. I know that some of my games have Genesect, but hopefully that won't matter. I don't know; since it wouldn't let me use more than one code for any one game I suppose I can only hope that I can still collect on Genesect this month. Here's hoping!
As for Sun & Moon teams, I haven't even thought about that. I've been out of the loop on the what's what and just saw this morning that we get to transfer the Ash Greninja (spelling) from the demo to the game. Sweetness! I got to make sure my eldest knows that, too. It was a real short demo and I was going to play it again to try out that new move for, what was it, Pikachu?, but it seemed that the opposing Pokemon went down way too easily with basic moves, so I never got the chance to try it out. LOL
Spent the evening with my siblings and dad, and I actually found a 20th anniversary Arceus plushie! I didn't think I'd be able to get one since I couldn't find one in August, but the local Gamestop actually had one!
I finally hatched a shiny Ralts... and it's male. I don't particularly mind male Gardevoir, but if I evolve this one into a Gardevoir like I wanted to and then have trouble finding another male later I'm gonna be kicking myself. So I start the hunt anew!
Ah...snowman munchlax is really cute, but on the plus side of missing out on it, I had enough prize points for a Corruption Orb recently, and so managed to snag a late Halloween egg gift laughs. I only corrupted because I love this novelty design I'll legit laugh if by some dumb luck it is a shiny.
Well, today is going to be a lot of work that I don't want to do. 5 presentations and 2 papers, all moved to the same week. Yuck.
I also completely forgot about the even yesterday and didn't keep my party open, so I will be sure to remedy that today/tomorrow to see if I get anything.
So I got a snowman munchlax
Lol. I was storing up on Burmies for breeding, because I only had a single Mothim, and I needed a Brave pokémon for my exploration. I had two Burmy eggs to hatch, so I decided to hatch one of them, and if it's the wrong nature, I will spend some Pass Orbs to make sure the other one will be Brave.
It hatched into a Shiny Burmy with Brave nature...
Lol, you have to wait until the 11th to start getting shinies. You'll get the dex entry on it though. I finally got my snow munchlax, now just need to get the shears and some combs to get all the novelties released so far. Oh and snowy weather.
Someone sold a bunch of type gems to the shop. Got them from the backroom. Dragon, poison, ice and dark if I recall correctly. As a matter of fact I started buying before checking which they were XD
Phew, had a super tiring week at work and finally made it to the weekend.
I slept forever and now I definitely feel much more rested.
@ Cryptic Lyric: Good luck with those presentations and papers, that sounds like a heap of work.
Just tackle one at a time, I suppose? What are your presentations and papers about?
Speaking of assignments I need to actually start mine.. it's such a boring topic though, ugh.
e: Finally found a Bort so just waiting for Diancie to get to maximum happiness so I can mega evolve her
Blargh, I hate it when I get a task to feed a Pokemon a specific Berry in the middle of Fog.
I haven't hatched any Burmy yet, and I actually didn't need to since I got an entire collection of Pokemon ready to be bred for a Shiny Hunt. So my Wormadam are sitting in my box to be brought out on the 13th of this month. In the meantime, I really hope I can hatch a Shiny Deino before the SWSH begins. If not, I'll have to put the Deino hatching completely on hold for the SWSH except on multiplier days so I can hatch them faster, since I don't think it will be productive to have eggs that take a long time to hatch taking up the space for a potential SWSH egg.
So I went to the store yesterday and picked up some Evolutions cards! They are so cool. I actually have most of the original cards, so it's neat to see reprints of them. I also got a Mega Slowbro EX, a promo Black Kyurem, and a cool purple Genesect coin to add to my collection. I also woke up to a Shiny Inkay this morning, so that was a pleasant surprise.
Does anyone need Volcanion still? I've been giving them out and have a bunch of leftovers... But please, if you already got a Volcanion in XYORAS, don't take one. I'm relying on trust here, since I want to give them to people who don't have one yet. They are US codes, so sorry if you live somewhere else :/
Oooh, just noticed the hunt is starting a little bit earlier. Is that because of Sun/Moon?
I'm just going to breed my Bagons until the 13th. I already stockpiled on my burmies of both genders, so I'm all set.
I wanted to write a very long post detailing the problem, but I decided that a simple and short one will do the job just as well.
HELP!!! We need Patrats in the Safari!!!
So, we have three dogs, Sam, Harry, and Maggie. We went to our grandparents' house, and because little Maggie got into so much trouble last time we left her home we took her with us. So, Harry, the mature gentleman he is, spite-peed. He went all over the recliner, then went into Maggie's crate and soaked her bed!
Nasty little brat.
Went to the movies and saw Dr Strange the other night. It was really good! Would recommend. I really need to watch more Marvel movies...the few I've seen I've really enjoyed ^^ Also bought tickets to a midnight screening of Fantastic Beasts, which comes out on 17th. Super excited! I've also started watching Rick and Morty, so now I'm hooked on that :P
Was mew given out yesterday for the event? It's not crossed out on the first page ?
Also, super excited for Sun and Moon, I preordered it lol
Hello!
I saw that this time we've got burmy to hunt! It's a funny idea, I'm not sure they would be chosen an other time, so cool to hunt them ^^
I'm covered with Sun and Moon. I have preorders for both, and they're pretty much my birthday gift this year (since the only other things I really want are a new cell phone and Megumi Ogata's autograph...)
Oh man, Sun and Moon comes out two days before I go on a trip to Georgia, and we are driving there. A 12 hour drive with a new pokemon game... YES. I will be so very happy about that.
Oh sweet and yes!! Thank you, GPX! I was able to score today's event egg. I was worried that yesterday's inactivity would hurt me so I clicked a lot to make up for that. *blush*
Today's clicks have also helped me get two of the three Pokemon levels I need so I'm well on my way to finishing this current task at least.
I hope that you were able to get the event Pokemon you vied for and, if not, perhaps you were one of the lucky ones to gain the shiny.
Happy Sunday Everybody.
Sweet! Got a volcanion ! I wonder what the shiny will look like.
Also, I dont know if anyone here watches Agents of Shield, but I recently met Brett Dalton, as he was on my campus for a day and got an autograph and picture with him!!! Such an awesome guy!
I also got a volcanion! Didn't have one yet so there's that
@Esc I love shield, that's so cool, huge congrats!! I'm very jealous haha
Well I guess I should have left my party open all week because I didn't get an event egg this month. Oh well, maybe Volcanion will be available on the Legend Voucher Plus eventually so I can get one. Congrats to those that got an egg for the raffle this month.
Daylight Savings ending has put me out of whack when it comes to work. I thought my shift ended an hour before it actually did xD. I got woken up early today as well and couldn't go back to sleep because of it. I figured going to bed early for once would leave me well rested, but now I'm more tired than ever.
Well, I got Volcanion. Can't wait to see what his sprite looks like, and the shiny. I don't even know what the shiny Kalos events look like
Oh hey, I forgot this was a thing.
I get my car back from the shop Monday. Thanks to some shoddy windshield work from the glass guys, my car ended up leaking and flooding from the inside out a couple weeks ago, and it shorted out the electrical systems. So I've been stuck like this, with a goddang Hyundai Elantra for ages. I hate the car but it goes away tomorrow
Also, WHATUP I GOT VOLCANION!!!!
I usually never get the egg I want in the events, so I played super cautious and managed to snag it from event today. <3
...looking at my signature, I think its egg sprite is broken...
I managed to get Volcanion, as well as another Hoopa. Plus I found one of the 'mons I needed for an exploration on the first shot in the safari zone! Think I'm doing pretty well for myself...and with my luck, sounds like I might be changing my display name.
Any way to get Mega Diancie stone (underground?) and Volcanion, bc my dumb ass forgot to keep my party filled until today :/ I don't want to waste 200 points to get a Legendary voucher if its unavailable that way. Or will a Special Exploration become available soon? Hoping us unlucky folks have the means to get them soon-ish
What a nice surprise! I got my Volcanion as well, feeling lucky to be one out of those 350 people who have that pleasure to have one! It's big surprise cause I'm not that active right now, I'm having no time to click due to my university duties.
Egg sprite seems broken to me as well.
And, talking about SWSH this month is not really fantastic for me. I don't like subtle shinies and Burmy is one of them, meh. But I like shiny Mothim so I hope to be lucky and get male one, wanted to hunt for that! But on the other side, it's nice way to complete Insect Shard.
Wish you all good month!
Volcanion hasn't been added to the voucher yet, sadly. I hope it is. It's my fave gen 6 legend.
I got Volcanion so aaahhh. My store is also selling three pack Pokemon cards for a buck now (Steam Siege) so that's wonderful.
I've been having some more bad family issues crop up over the last few day sadly. I'm doing better as of today. I had texted my former Assistant Manager about it and she came by today for lunch so we could talk a bit about it.
We went to a chinese place in town and we ended up getting fortune cookies and hers said "A meeting with an old friend will bring new adventures".
Congrats to everyone who got the steam legendary from the event! also, On one of the last tasks for the Triforce legendaries now, and really excited - but no matter what I do, the main bad guy behind this explorationis proving a hard opponent to beat with my Pokemon, sigh. if anyone has any tips i would really like them! (though my ancient jigglypuff seems to do fairly well most rematches with him and i'm proud for that)
Oh my god, my Deoxys [Attack] just hatched with 46 IVs. It got 0 in HP and Defense, but at least it got 8 in Attack. :'D
And I'm sure I'm basically reiterating everyone else's thoughts but I am too excited for Sun and Moon. I haven't been this hyped for a Pokemon game since Black and White, when I was 9 lol. (+ two of my favourite artists are releasing albums on that day so I'm probably going to have a mental breakdown aha)
Hey all! Looking forward to Sun and Moon also Skyrim.. haven't been around the forum here much lately. Got dragged into Fallout again. Looking forward to the shiny hunt though!
I have a bit of a question myself. Does Wal-Mart usually carry Pokemon games on release? I can't place my hopes on getting one from GameStop unless I stop by to pre-order. If not, I'll try to pre-order Moon this weekend.
I wonder if volcanion would be available via voucher. I have one, but this lil buddy isn't in the list
When you go into a store, let's say GameStop, they usually have preorder cards. You just bring it to the cash and they'll charge you the 5 dollars for a preorder. You can pay it all off if you wish or you can pay for it when you pick up the game. I know that I did this when Black2/White2 came out so no idea if they changed that.
I preordered mine online from Best Buy/Amazon. Best Buy will charge me when they ship the game to me, Amazon I had to pay for outright. This way I'm guaranteed to get a copy of the game, if I were to wait until release I probably wouldn't get one online.
I could have lined up on release day at my local Walmart but I didn't want to have to wake up at 7. My Walmart will probably run out of copies before lunchtime because they only get so many copies. I learned from a few games I wanted to get, like Monster Hunter 3 Ultimate and the PS4 release here xD.
I'm in a smallish town so I can probably try to buy a copy from our wall of marts on release day.
I'm going on a road trip on the next day so Pokemon will help with that a tad bit.
Found out my phone was deactivated-right when I needed to make a call. Really upset about that. Ipod then decided to take ages to have the charging status stick. Everything's going wrong.
Hopefully things will start looking up soon.
Sad I missed Volcanion u_u Egg is really pretty
I just love how Volcanion's egg looks as you continue getting more and more maturity for it. It's a nice touch, love how most of the Kalos legendary eggs have that affect.
I'm back from another Quiz Bowl game. Varsity won (can't say the same for JV). I only got to answer one question, which was one I knew thanks to the fact I'm taking Chemistry this year. It was a question about an element that had a single electron orbit a lone proton, the answer it to it being hydrogen.
I signed up on Wattpad to write stuff. I'm editing my profile before I start my first fanfiction though. I want to have the Surprised Patrick meme as my avatar but it refuses to save it as my avatar and I'm cropping out as much of the image as I can.
Oh I loved Quiz Bowl! I was known for having just totally random knowledge. Still true x)
Had an appointment with my massage therapist today. Feeling better than I was earlier today but I'm soooooo tired x.x
e: Oh, yeah. So I saw on an earlier page that there is a need for Patrats in the Safari. Is that still true? I could start breeding them, but so far I've only turned out two Borts...that I'm going to release right meow.
Well, I was hoping for Volcanion or Snowman Munchlax, but Roggenmorpha was a pleasant surprise all the same Hoping we get an explo for Volcanion at some point just so I can get the dex entry!
I sadly have to wait for sun/moon thanks to being poor as dirt, and having gramma buy me half of the Warrior Cats books I was missing as an early birthday/Christmas present instead xD And I need to find where I misplaced my ORAS/XY so I can redeem my Arceus and Volcanion vouchers before they expire :s
Edit: Sweet! Just found a snowman munchlax in the safari zone!
I was actually keeping a slot closed and waiting for Volcanion, but... On the day Roggenmorphas were given out, one of my eggs cracked literally at the giveaway time, and since we set the clocks an hour back a week prior, I didn't realise it was time... So I got caught with a spot open and thus with a Roggenmorpha. Oh well, just like Alicat I guess I'll just hope there's an exploration in the future, or maybe it is added to the voucher until I save up points for it.
And Shady Salesman visits me every day. @_@ He wants my points badly, but I already have 5 tails and the achievement, he won't get any more.
Meanwhile November is turning out to be the busiest month of the year, good thing hatching some eggs always relaxes me.
I still wish I had remembered to fill my party on the Deoxys day. I'll have to hope that there is another way of obtaining Volcanion.
Almost finished with the Kyurem exploration, which I'm pretty happy that I'll get to complete at least one special exploration this month, as I had to bail out of Mansion of Gods due to a noticeable lack of Patrat.
I also finally finished up editing my Wattpad profile, including getting to have Surprised Patrick as my profile picture. I'm gonna begin writing my first fanfiction tomorrow. I wish that I'll get my drawing tablet soon to make covers, but I have to wait until Christmas. Well, time to make a cruddy message stating that it's a stand-in cover as my cover for my upcoming fanfic.
Well, I got up early, went to the polls, spent an hour stuck in traffic, and now I'm on campus. I have so much work to do that I am just in shutdown mode, where sleep sounds so much better than doing anything.
Looks like I will be grabbing more eevees for this pokehunt, too.
No spoilers here, but the entire Moon version was leaked. Be wary of major spoilers (or, you know, seek them out, I won't judge)
I ended up getting a Sh. Deoxys from this giveaway. How nice!
- removed shiny from post -
I voted early last week. Without getting too much into politics, I have no idea how I'm going to concentrate on work today, especially given this is the first work I've had in a couple weeks...
I already have a Pixie Plate, so I won't be trying that hard this week.
I voted last week, which was great since there were no lines or anything. I feel sort of bad for places that don't have early voting (which isn't that many?) and that have to deal with long lines on election day.
I'm aware of a lot of the spoilers for Sun/Moon, but I'll just ignore them for now. Game's coming out soon anyway, so I can just wait and at least learn the story for myself.
Congrats on everyone who got a Volcanion. Enjoy it; I sprited it as well as its egg, so I'll be happy to hatch my own soon enough.
Managed to get a Volcanion egg, and the egg I bred for Purple Kecleon egg data ended up hatching shiny. Like I said in my notepad on my account, I'm debating a name change because of this string of luck.
Right now I'm hunting the last of some of the novelties I need in the Safari Zone.
I'll surely focus more on this pokehunt, because I realised I don't even own a single Pixie Shard. I don't choose what shinies to hatch based on shards, so at the moment I have random numbers of different shards. And I've only realized today that I can make a Stone Plate. Planning to start the exploration after SWSH & 3rd TBD.
Hello everyone, as some of you are aware Pokemon Moon has been leaked and datamined. Mark your spoilers EXTREMELY carefully; there's no such thing as too much detail in your markings.
http://r.gpx.plus/cNBXA
Cheri Berries please people!
As for Sun and Moon, I aim to play Moon, but have no intention of actually pre-ordering it or when I'm gunna buy it, but I'm gunna avoid any sort of gameplay or the huge datamine thats gone on.
Yeah, I really don't plan to spoil myself unlike with the other games. I plan to go into the game blind story-wise. Thanks Raven for giving everyone this head's-up.
Apparently, today is Election Day. Unfortunately, I'm five months off from the voting age of eighteen, so I can't really go in and vote. Whatever president we get, I just hope things will be okay for the next four to eight years.
Having a film class that encourages debate on Election Day was an... interesting experience. We got into some very rousing topics, and I apparently am a better speaker than most in my class.
Also, I need more Cranidos. I can never find any, and breeding them myself is barely helping.
Aaaand I really don't want to write the paper I have due tomorrow, or the presentation I need to do for tomorrow.
I'm planning to stay away from SuMo spoilers now. I'm good with the amount I stumbled into.
I need to finish my OR dex anyways. I'm pretty close. I just have to mess around with evos and Pokebank and such.
I avoid story spoilers like the plague. But I typically don't mind seeing some of the dex and features.
God help us all
even as an Australian I'm extremely concerned, seriously, America voted in a racist oompa loompa? What the fuck?
I'm so sorry for the result. Think it's best to keep it away from here though.
I'm also sorry for whoever lost a Giratina summon yesterday I stole as it hatched shiny! My apologies. Ill gladly trade it for a Shiny Kyurem please
Yeah, I was expecting more people to vote in a 3rd party candidate, but instead we got Trump. Now I'm worried that in this term or the potential next one the country will be in ruins. This is one of the reasons why I want to move to Canada.
Well, my country elected a racist, sexist, homophobic, Islamophobic, lying racist to be the next president. I am utterly devastated over this. It's only going to allow the racists and bigots to justify their actions by looking to the president. I honestly don't know how this happened, but... I am terrified.
Seeing that we have Honey+ is a nice surprise, though. I certainly won't complain.
I even called off of work today because I had so much homework to catch up on, but now I am just a crying mess who is finding out how many people in my life want to defend Trump. I'm done trying to play nice.
I heard that Canada's immigration website is/was down due to many Americans accessing it at once after finding out who the winner was.
Idk how much of that is true though.
But I'm happy to see honey being active today, that's going to be very useful with explorations and shiny hunting.
So thank you mysterious donator
Arceus, this is so depressing. I wish I could move to Canada, but I have no means of doing so.
On a lighter note, anyone mind helping me cure this Mesprit of paralysis?
http://r.gpx.plus/VRyXA
I'm keeping my political opinions out of this part of the forum for obvious reasons, but I do wish everyone would just shut up about politics for once. That's all what used to be my RP group talks about, to the point I'm avoiding them. I know it's an important subject, but can't we just have fun like we used to?
On a more positive note, glad for Honey+! Also got an Ascension Stone as part of the Mega+ day! Though I really just wanna complete the non-mega, non-legend portions of my dex...
http://r.gpx.plus/qOIXA
this lil girl is a bit.. cold. Aspear berries would help!
I'm sat around ignoring my lab report, waiting for clothes to wash (which they're almost done). The machine ate my money too so I'll need to find more change at some bloody point. I can't lug it all home with me either as home is 90 miles away and 2 hours of lugging clothes about there and back?! No thank you!
*rubs newly hatched Sh. Giratina on eggs* pls give me more shinies. Shinies that I'm actually hunting would be ideal, too.
I was just complaining to my little brother about my previous ralts hunt ending in a male... and then I hatched a female shiny! I'm finally done hunting raltses!
Looking at the descendants of my Gallade and Ditto, I bred 5 skinies in total, two of which I own.
75 IV get you nowhere, not even on a shiny. So unless you need the achievement, the 142 IV one is the better choice.
Thanks people, much appreciated
Also, x Sam, i think your party might be a bit broken. 10 places? FUUUUU
Sorry about me talking about politics, I'm just a bit miffed that we got what we got.
Really happy about this Honey+. I can actually hatch Deino eggs faster and get some more faster, though it wasn't that hard to find a Deino egg in the first place.
We took ASVAB, which is some kind of written test determining where you would be most useful in the building and what kind of ACT score you would make. They also said that they'll compare your score to all the other juniors and seniors across the country. Whatever my score is, I don't really want to go to the military, and I do have an excuse of not going in the case of I'm drafted, which is that my strabismus makes me super near-sighted in one eye and my brain doesn't use the other one at all.
Your egg hatched into Sh. Golden Bonsly!
Your Pokemon hatched holding a Stone Shard!
Congratulations on completing your shiny hunt!
Yaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaas FINALLY. Man today is a good day for GPX+.
Shiny Giratina and now a Shiny Golden Bonsly - Finally finished a hunt too! *happy dances*
Gonna go back to starting my lab report now I can actually read the raw data.. once I shower.
e: My poor assbutt is burned. Please to be feeding Raswt berries kthx
http://r.gpx.plus/sDdXA
Well I'm pleasantly surprised, I thought you'd all wait until the SWSH started to make a plus. It's getting hard finding the lower naturity eggs I'm hunting, only Carbink and Eevee stick out. Thanks for the help.
Sam, give me your shiny luck, I still need 8 shards for my Arceus project. :P
Well the US is screwed. Bye guys, I'm going to Canada.
On the shiny topic, my last one was only 11 ish days ago. I'm still 100% thirst for a shiny tho. pls end my like 2-year zergoose hunt pls
Weeeellll hello there, 140 IV eevee. I will be turning you into flesh ribbons here soon enough.
Today as been rainy, gross, and overall depressing. But, it's over, I'm in bed, and I am talking with my favorite teacher from high school over the weirdest of topics. Not a bad way to finish a bad day.
Hello random shiny Eevee I got while looking for a good one for the Poke Hunt. That makes it my third shiny I've gotten during a Poke Hunt while searching for good IVs(I think it was all Eevee too, lmao). I just wish it would give me shinies I need, like shiny Zergoose .
Today went over well I suppose, other than the shit I won't discuss here. It's like beating a dead horse. Work was nuts again today, people are going crazy over Christmas. I swear half of the things we're selling lately is Christmas related. I just want it to be over with. I'm starting to go crazy over all the Christmas products. I never want to see another piece of glitter for as long as I live. I swear I'm finding glitter in places that it shouldn't be in .
Me: *opens up GPXPlus on laptop, since safari zone runs better on there, to hunt for sweet sweet novelties*
GPXPlus Upper Banner: You look to your feet, and find a Banettite. Congratulations! <insert "down for nightly reset" message here>
Me: WHAT!? It's the SECOND day of Honey+, not the first! What is this!?
Me: *Refreshes page* And now it's Sunny! I needed that weather for a novelty evo!
Welp. I will be changing my screenname on my birthday (May also result in change of avatar. I have my old one saved, don't worry.), and it will be in effect until this abnormal streak of luck runs out.
Only one thing to do, keep on keeping on. It may really suck down the road, but thriving in the face of what may be to come is really the best way to defeat them. <3
All the nonsense with my personal life is really letting me delay my reaction to the election stuff honestly. I don't want to sound apathic to it (I'm so not okay with it) but I figure I should have only one crisis at a time and the guy isn't techincally in charge until January so I'm scheduling a day for that in advance.
Anyways- for the stuff I actually visit this website for lol.
I should try to actually do the Pokehunt. I don't really have a lot of Pixie shards. The plus honey on the other hand is really helping me on my hunts. Maybe I can find a shiny before I fill my party full of bagworms?
I'm currently drawing a new lockscreen for my phone featuring my shiny Mienshao from this site. I really need a change because my current one is techincally a SuMo spoiler. (Not that it will matter very, very soon )
Hence why I left my ranting in the Rant Zone, where it belongs *blep* My winter will get significantly more depressing though (I suffer from Winter Time Blues due to the daily dreary weather, but this will make it skyrocket) None of us knows what the future holds, but we gotta keep on fighting for a better tomorrow <3
So far I have hatched TWO shinies today! Hoping for a 3rd!
On the shiny front, my most recent shiny was my female Litleo about a month ago... I want a shiny male now! xD
So today has been lucky... Manaphy, Prankster, AND a Merrick Carbink egg from the shelter!!
My last Shiny was on October 30th, right before Halloween. I used to think my Shiny luck was bad, but it seems to be about average. I'm just hoping the Deino hunt doesn't drag me down on top of the high maturity requirement.
I have no school tomorrow, which means it will be a three-day weekend. And even better, the week after next week will be Thanksgiving Break! I'm gonna game a lot this month and the next.
I may need to start another hunt that is easier to find in the shelter, because I have pretty much exhausted the population of the ones I am already hunting.
At least I am finding a decent amount of lunatone, though.
Swear I've hatched more Swablu than what I have recorded.. 500 eggs and no shiny yet, I just want my pirate bird gpx pls.
How's every body's plate progress? I still haven't done DotW again for a while so I've got a lot of runthroughs to do:
Draco Plate
Dread Shard ×4
Earth Shard ×3
Fist Shard ×2
Flame Plate
Insect Shard ×4Iron Plate
Meadow Shard ×4
Mind PlatePixie Plate
Sky Shard ×1
Splash Shard ×4
Spooky Plate
Stone Shard ×3
Toxic Shard ×4
Zap Shard ×3
Four plates to use and 5 almost finished.. Should crack on with that me thinks.
So we're talking shard status? OK. I'll play along.
Draco Shard ×4
Dread Shard ×4Earth Plate
Fist Shard ×1
Flame Shard ×5
Icicle Shard ×3
Insect Shard ×2
Iron Shard ×1
Meadow Shard ×5
Mind Shard ×1Pixie Plate
Sky Shard ×1
Splash Shard ×4
Spooky Shard ×5
Stone Shard ×3
Toxic Shard ×2
Zap Shard ×5
Yeah. Looks like I definitely have to bite the bullet and get some of these forms completed. I think we all know what is holding me up. LOL But when I do go through it I think I'll do the Flame Plate first and just go down the list.
In worldly news... my streak for my choice for President continues to hold. Of course, I kind of did set myself up to continue my untarnished record by voting third party. *whistles innocently*
In relation to Pokemon news... I managed to get 4 code cards from the Game Stop at the mall last night. I haven't turned them in [yet], but at least my trip to the mall wasn't a total loss last night. My unsmart phone decided to not want to charge at all. Seems I might've broken a couple prongs inside the charging unit because the charge cords are so blanking difficult to insert properly. *shifty eyes* So now my husband is assisting nightly by charging his phone and, come morning, we're battery swapping. We're only having to do this until the insurance delivers the new phone which, so they said last night, should ship within 1 to 2 days. So I might have my new phone by Monday (or Tuesday, depending on if they count tomorrow as a holiday).
In relation to GPX... I finished the explore (YAY!!) and turned in an impressive Togekiss IV 155 for the hunt. I was all set to run with the 142 when I hatched the entry yesterday morning. At least I was able to finish it in a timely manner. *phew*! So I'll be trying to decide which special exploration to start next. I think I know which one I've "got" to do. I dread it.. but who knows? Maybe it'll be fun?? *grumbles incoherently about battles and swapping Pokemon*
Today is my Friday (YAY!!) so here is to a sweet weekend. I'll be looking forward to watching many episodes of Reign on Netflix. I really, really, really that show! And the music! I have to see if there is a Reign soundtrack. How I hope there is!!
First morning this week I haven't woken up anxious (probably because c'mon how much worse can it get), board game night, and unofficially have Thanksgiving plans on lock.
Ooh, I'm going to a potluck Saturday and still don't know what to bring along. Hmm.
Nice job on the Eevee, RicFule! My only problem with vying with her for the Fairy hunts is not knowing if I have enough fairies for my party to evolve her properly. That's why I went with Togekiss. Either way, we should both be set for this week's hunt, eh?
I'm probably going to pick up some more cards from Game Stop where I have my games on pre order, too. What I can do then is, hopefully, share them. I'm not thoroughly convinced I can use these cards since I know I have a Genesect (or two) "somewhere" (in one of my games) So if it turns out to be like the Volcanion codes, if they're already in your game, you can scratch all you want. It won't work. I just wonder... would that then invalidate the code for someone else or another game if that does happen? *scratches head thoughtfully*
As for shard hunting, yeah no. I'm not so much doing that either. Granted, I might've begun my Murkrow hunts for the shard, but most of my hunts are because I just want that Pokemon and the shards? A nice cherry on top. *smirk*
I do actively start hunts based on Shards, like right now I'm doing hunts for the Dread Plate. I do start for fun hunts though, as well as SWSH hunts. I'm not gonna complete DotW yet, not until I get all Legendaries so I won't have to worry about missing out on an exploration for a Legendary I don't have yet.
Here's my progress so far:
Draco Shard x1
Dread Shard x3
Earth Shard x1
Fist Shard x1
Flame Plate
Iron Shard x1
Meadow Shard x1
Mind Shard x1
Splash Shard x1
Whoops, sorry. I seemed to have missed that one. My fanfiction is a Kirby fanfiction, and one I've been meaning to write for a while. Thing is, I'm having trouble getting myself to start writing, my attention always turns to something else. I might need less distractions, I guess.
I have a LOT of plates completed actually.
I just don't want to do three certain tasks in that, that having nothing to do with me clicking.
The battle is the one thing I most certainly don't want to do, I suck at battling. Took me too many tries to do it
Well, now I am home and without homework to do until Monday! Time to relax and get some serious clicking and hatching done. Also, from the last three Pokemon I've sent to the underground, I've gotten 2 Unearthly Urns and a Chocolate Bar.
On a different note, I found a website that gives you a test to figure our your tastes and gives you wine suggestions based off of that. So, I may have to check that out. 50% off and a Bonus bottle means 5 bottles of wine for $38. Not all that bad.
In today made awesome news, I JUST GOT A HOOPA!!
I just grabbed a Xerneas and a Hoopa from the shelter, and they were both Sam's. So thanks, Sam! :D
Also, was it ever answered if not being able to be logged on to both GPX and the forums at the same time anymore is intentional? It's been like this for months now, and I had checked the report a problem threads from people asking about it, but never saw an answer.
I picked up a Carbink Bort from the shelter, thanks x Sam. 1 down, 3 to go. I also dropped 24 Floral Togepis today and it shows only 3 have been picked up so far so if anyone's been searching, there's apparently still a whole plethora bouncing around in there.
To avoid the election mess, I've pretty much been sinking most of my time into The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection, mostly in Strangetown lately. Definitely brings back a lot of memories, Strangetown was my place to go when I first got Sims 2. The whole Bella Goth mystery was pretty awesome.
Decided to order Pokémon Moon Now to hope the webstore people don't mess up my order...
PS, for those who started the demo in Europe on the day of its release:
I've been playing Sims 4 lately and my character gets abducted every other night. Those aliens seem to be pretty fond of him.
Almost forgot to submit my pokemon for the pokehunt, ended up sending a female togekiss with 106 IV's for second place.
Home from work, ordered wine, and now to sit and relax for a bit!
I came home to see that my brother's babysitter had baked my favorite cake for no reason other than she wanted to, so that was a wonderful surprise! I'll be digging into it soon enough. I'm in the process of trying to get one of my friends a job with my mom. My boyfriend is student teaching at a school that is basically having race riots because of the election. Buuuuut
Sun and Moon come out next week. Two days after they come out, I am going to a conference in Georgia. A 12 hour drive where I don't have to be the one driving means that I will be getting very far in the new Pokemon game, very quickly. Also sort of super nervous to be going that far away from home, but it's going to be an experience. Hopefully a good one, seeing as its a chance for me to connect with possible future employers.
Oh man, I'm going to a smash local later today. Wish me luck!
Today was a rather nice little outing with friends. We went to the local market and looked around, seeing what all this city we lived in had to offer on the small sale. Craft soda and local wine were some of my purchases, along with locally made beef jerky, a candle that smelled like firewood, and a small cow figurine for my boyfriend. All in all, not a bad way to spend money.
Coming home and seeing that my stepdad had demolished the kitchen and was starting to rebuild it was a surprise, though.
Also, I saw an Alolan Vulpix plushie that is going to the pokemon center stores, and oh my goodness i need at least ten of them. SOooooooo cute.
I'm getting excited for the SWSH this month, I'm really hoping it'll be a nice and easy hunt(though I doubt it). I'm probably only going after one of them this time, work has gotten hectic. I'm back to working at least 40 hours a week, which means I won't get much time to participate. I just gotta hope for that quick shiny.
I spent half of my day playing Legend of Zelda Twilight Princess on the Gamecube. I decided to try and get the Early Master Sword glitch done so I could play the game a different way. It took me over 40 tries to get it the first time, but I messed it up by going the wrong way XD. Third time was the charm, I lucked out and hit the area I needed to go. Gotta love sequence breaking the game .
i'm probably coming back i guess?? hi everyone
no idea how much i have to catch up on
raven still sucks
edit: will be joining the SWSH for steel burmy
I honestly don't care much about shiny Burmy at all, I'm just participating for prize points and whatever the sexy Burmy novelty is gonna be. And I just love SWSHs. (when I'm not hatching 600+ eggs ofc)
I thought the shiny hunt was underway and hatched my eggs and got a shiny :') I h8
EDIT: and now for some reason i can't log into gpx i'm going to lose my bananas
I joined this swsh to support my affinity, not because I like the Pokémon :P
But hey it might help me finish my dex who knows. I'm still missing a handful of entries.
10 days until Pokémon Sun/Moon get released in Europe so yay
The more I hear about them, the more excited I get!
I went out today to spin the daily Pokéstop to get my streak to continue and I caught a handful of things in the nearby park.
I only compete in the SWSH hunts for the prize. Given shinies for certain Pokemon are ugly and/or don't look good at all compared to the original, or just don't have any difference to the original(Shiny Mega Gengar fixed that for Gengar, but still why even bother changing the color ever so slightly? Gible was the first shiny I ever caught in the games aside from Gyarados and I was so disappointed after evolving he barely looks different)
Hoping my friends and fellow members in NZ are okay Magnitude 7.8 earthquake caused a massive tsunami!
On a lighter note... wake him up?
http://r.gpx.plus/UfTqA
I'm rather excited for thw SWSH! Not that I really care for shiny burmy, but there is a chance for Mothim, which would be pretty neat. And I'm always game for a new novelty! Or something pretty neat.
I'm not sure I will be able to actually finish the hunt, though, because I will be very busy from 11/19-11/24, and that is a rather big chunk of the hunt.
Going for steel for the prize, will sign up for additional ones in hopes of supporting my affinity if I get lucky like last time.
Oh yeah, that starts tomorrow, doesn't it. I still have to get this Volcanion egg out of my party to be perfectly honest ^^'
I had to keep reminding myself that it started today, but I was able to get on it pretty quickly. I'm hunting the Grass one first, and the other two will obviously come soon after.
Now I have to find a way to charge my 3DS after the adapter broke and my sister's being fickle with hers, especially with SM coming out this week (!!!). May have to order a new one.
Wonder when Volcanion will be added to the LVP.
I had to look up which Burmy I'm hunting since I just picked a random one. xD So, Ground Burmy for me, apparently.
Now I need to look up the Sun/Moon hairstyles since I don't think you can change your skin color later, and I need to know if girls have one particular style before I pick the skin. Hate it when I can't try out all the options before I pick something unchangeable.
I had my mom preorder Moon for me from Amazon. Hopefully they don't take too long with shipping it to our home when the game comes out.
I went for Grass Burmy, since that's the first of the trio. Just gonna hope that I only hatch one male, but Burmy have a 50/50 gender ratio, so I'll have to get lucky that it hits that one 50% only once.
Damn. It seems like breeding a Burmy with a Mothim poduces eggs only of the Burmy's type. I thought that the Mothim should breed all three types, so I would have a few eggs of the other two types too.
I picked ground burmy for the swsh, which was actually not the one I wanted. I was thinking of the grass one, oh well, I might get lucky this time and get one ground early. If so I'll start with the grass one right away.
I accidently got a Mew instead of Volcanion. And I knew it was going to be him too. T_T Oh well. I'll wait for a release.
I pre-ordered both Sun and Moon at GameStop. My bf's birthday is on Wednesday, so I told him I'll buy him the game. We're just still debating who gets which game. xD I have a preference towards Sun, but it's his birthday so I want him to choose. Problem is he wants me to get the one I want too so he keeps saying "I don't care." Grr.
Good luck to everyone in the SWSH!
I just dropped 24 Floral Togepis so if anyone still needs one, should be a good bunch bouncing around in there relatively soon.
I was hoping there was gonna be a really, really good sale on the 2DS for Black Friday but I haven't seen any leaks about it. I figure with the Switch coming, that something like a 2DS would be priced to move at the last minute, or for the holidays at least.
I'm going shopping on the 18th so hopefully they'll still have some copies of Moon left at the store. If not I can wait a second. I still have a Pokedex to complete in OR.
I'm doing grass burmy at the moment. I'll go through all the forms to get a Mothim if I have too, but I love grass types so I figured I can go for that first.
I missed the first day because of work nonsense oops. I'm probably going to be pretty busy the rest of the month. Ah well, at least it's low maturity eggs this time.
Oh heck my luck is up i completed my first hunt in record time!! And a got a female Shiny instead of another male :0
Think I'll start on steel Burmy now.
I went for grass because I just chose randomly. xD Hoping to get all three though. But...my luck with SWSH is so random. Who knows how that will turn out. Good luck to all though!
Well, off to a rather good start to my hunt! Hoping it doesn't take too long, but you never know.
I woke up with a panic attack this morning, and that pretty much set the mood for today. Everything has been not bad, but made me more antsy than anything. Now I'm trying to relax, but I don't think that's going to work.
My deadline priorities changed and I'm not happy. I focused so much on one essay for tomorrow instead of my lab report for friday, now my tutor is all "oh let's just do plans for tomorrow instead of the actual essay as it's in for week 10"
grumble grumble it's 3am, I'm high on coffee planning this essay instead of finishing off writing it now, then moving onto lab report shit if I get time.. grr.
e: Also lol, Wormadam [Steel] is 90.5m tall according to site Pokédex.
Yay to accidently completely removing my avatar <3 I'm such a mess lately lol.
Some good news is that I might be completely done with my personal issues for the moment tomorrow. Wish me all the luck.
On the plus side- I can definitely stop putting off the Rock Paper Scissor chivo that I still don't have.
I've been pretty busy as of late, so I haven't had a chance to visit here much " Though this time next week all my exams will be done, and summer break officially starts! I'm really looking forward to it...so need a break. My classes this semester were more difficult than I expected, so I feel pretty drained.
I haven't done that well in the last couple of SWSHs, so I'm determined to actually hatch at least a shiny or two this time :P Also super happy that I managed to get a Volcanion from the giveaway ^^
I've been a bit out of touch with the latest Sun/Moon spoilers the last couple of weeks...I was previously looking at them all. I'm just going to wait until Friday now to get the game, rather than catch up on spoilers :P Though I did see one thing about the version exclusive Pokemon, and I prefer almost all of the ones in Sun than in Moon...and I'm getting Moon ^^" Looks like I'm going to have to do a lot of trading with my sister and boyfriend haha.
I also discovered the other day that there is now an official Yugioh app to play the card game! This makes me really happy Most of my free time is being taken up by that at the moment haha.
Curses! I have 2 Lunar eggs in my daycare and am fresh out of heart sweets Dx Now I gotta wait for them to be back in the shop to stock up
Congrats to those who have gotten their shinies already!!
As for me, the lack of Cranidos eggs is making my hunt even harder. I've taken to breeding my own, which has put my Dark Ekans hunt on hold completely. I just want this one over with, because I started it in 2013.
lmao, so I hatched a female Eevee...but it has 36 IVs. Thanks gaem o3oAlso, my Trinkets panel seems to be stuck, saying I've had one offer accepted, but I went through them all?
e: never mind, it seems to have fixed itself x)
Well, I hatched a Shiny Burmy relatively quickly. Pretty happy about that, since I got my needed male. Now to hope the rest will be all female.
In Music Technology, we started working with sound effects. Which got me confused, since I didn't think we would be working with sound design at all. I'm also a lot more self-conscious about using sound-effects than using virtual instruments, and I really don't know why. Also, we have a computer program to make music, except it costs like $200 USD. Since I'm interested in using soundfonts, is there cheaper music programs that also lets you use downloaded soundfonts?
I'm mostly relieved that my very conservative mother is fine with my OTP being a homosexual pairing.
On a more GPX-ish note, I'm still working on Steel Burmy, and will try for other ones if I get a shiny. Hoping I get one soon...inb4 the first egg I hatch post-name change is shiny.
I just got the grade from my Film midterm, and I'm honestly disappointed. 79% is lower than I thought it would be, but I'm able to bring it up if I decide to do extra essays. Ugh.
In GPX, the first eevee I hatched was a 132IV male. Not bad, so that's sitting as my entry so far.
Edit: Could I get some help with feeding this little one some Cheri berries? http://r.gpx.plus/EIjDA
I've been prepping for surgery as of late, and by prepping I mean turning my diet into sweets and other garbage food. Nice.
I haven't actually done Poke Hunts in a very long time. I guess it's just a lack of interest?
Oh also please feed Lapras kthx http://r.gpx.plus/CQnXA
I'm hatching grass burmys/burmies
Managed to hatch enough to use sweet honey so if we get a honey+ then I can use it right away
And when I went to spin a Pokéstop earlier, I reached LV 21 in Pokémon GO
I managed to hatch my first SWSH shiny last night ^^ I didn't complete the last SWSH so I'm happy this time :P
I have a busy day ahead...I have to start packing up my uni room (moving out next week) before my exam this afternoon. Then I have to drive home, which takes two hours, aaand then I'm going to a midnight screening of Fantastic Beasts and Where to Find Them! I'm gonna be exhausted at work tomorrow ^^" Hopefully the movie is really good so it makes it worth it haha.
Peachas please?
http://r.gpx.plus/duADA
I only got 64% on my summary, but it's the first one we've ever done and we all got a similar mark so I guess it's better than nothing. That particular thing is only 10% of this unit and this unit is worth 30%.
Lab report for friday is 50%, essay is 30% (next tuesday) and the presentation and summary are 10% each.
Choose the ground one. Just randomly. Hatced just 15 now.. hoping Ill get a shiny this time!
Goodluck everyonee!!
I'm not sure why, but it's a lot harder to find Ground Burmy than it was to find Grass Burmy. I'm gonna need some Honey when hopefully the next Prize Shop rotation has 'em.
Two more days until Sun and Moon! I've seen the base stats of some Pokemon that have a lot of potential from some people datamining.
Oh yeah, that also means Thanksgiving Break is almost here for my school. That means I'm going to game a lot.
