Today marks 5 years since GPX+ first opened up to the public.
Those who have been here since the beginning have seen the site change in so many ways; in fact, most of those people helped mold the site into what it is today, due to us trying to adapt new features to how people were playing. Even if you didn't directly post a suggestion, you may have indirectly caused the site to change. From all of us on staff, thank you to every user who helped turn this site into what it is today. To everyone on staff, or anyone who was previously staff, we admins thank you for your service, no matter how small your contribution. To celebrate this incredibly special milestone, we are again having our Plus trio. Not only that, but we're finally giving you your first taste of Generation 6! Thanks to Wymsy and our talented group of spriters, a handful of Mega Evolutions are now available. You must first purchase the Mega Ring account upgrade from the shop. Today only, you will receive one free Mega Stone upon purchasing the Mega Ring. The stone you receive will be a random one from the batch that's currently available. There are currently no other ways to obtain a Mega Stone, so I urge you to purchase your Mega Ring today and let any friends know who may currently be inactive. At some point in the coming weeks, there will be a way for each of you to obtain all of the available Mega Stones, but not quite yet. We're not going to tell you which Mega Evolutions are available just yet, although a search through your Dex will easily help those most curious quickly catalog them for others. You are also likely to see them pop up in users' parties, so keep your eyes open! Any Mega Stones you eventually receive are yours to keep forever; when you Mega Evolve a Pokémon, they are not used up like a typical evolution stone. Because of that, you can only ever have one of each Mega Stone, and you cannot sell them either. Once reset comes again (February 14th at 11:55PM EST), purchasing a Mega Ring will no longer award you a free Mega Stone. Those who miss out will have to wait until the method for receiving Mega Stones is released. As we promised you back in December, we are hard at work trying to get Generation 6 available here on GPX+, so we really hope you appreciate this first small sampling! Finally, Happy Valentine's Day! I'm going to enjoy the day with my lovely girlfriend of 3.5 years, Jen. I hope you all are able to enjoy the day as well, even if you aren't spending it with a special someone. Remember, you're never alone when you belong to the amazing community here at Global PokédeX Plus! This thread will be open to comments five minutes after being posted. Thank you for not spamming. -------------------- Want a rotating avatar like mine? Check out my website: randimg!

I got Blazikenite. Shame I didn't get Manectite or Absolite because I have shinies of both of those guys. (and because I sprited them both)
Having a mega Blaziken in the meantime will be neat though! -------------------- |

Wow! I can't believe it's been 5 years already! Almost my 5 year anniversary for the site too~ (just got to wait a little while longer xD). I may of been away on hiatus for a few there in the middle, but I'm so happy I made it back, and I love this site more than ever. I've missed this all so much and wish I was around and involved more to help the site grow in anyway it can. But its been an amazing run and I look forward to so much more that the future has in store for us here. <3

5 years already? That's awesome! I love what the site turned into, as well as what I got out of it. <3

BLAZIKENITE!!! I was hoping to get Lucaranite, but this is the next best thing!
Actually, there is no Lucaranite. (Not yet) This post has been edited by The Majestic Mr L: Feb 14 2014, 12:24 AM -------------------- Light is a spectrum. Why limit yourself to a single hue?

Got myself an Aerodactylite and adopted an Aerodactyl to use it on. Hopefully it'll be ready to Mega Evolve by the time images are up.

oooooooo nice.
I got Venasaurite, but can't seem to mega evolve my Venasaur? Is this a bug? Also, as a suggestion: Making the cloned starter novelties mega evolve? I mean, if they were exact clones, minus the skin difference, they should be able to mega evolve too, no? -------------------- "Find something to believe in, and find it for yourself.
