Howdy y'all~ It's June! We're barreling towards the half-way point in the year at great speed! Is everyone excited for the upcoming Pokemon Direct? What did everyone think of the new Pokemon news that came out so far? Remember to be careful with spoilers in the upcoming months.

Congratulations to Wulfenite on winning the Site Wide Shiny Hunt! It was super close! Congrats to everyone who hatched a shiny this month.

Note that this month's SWSH prize, Machine Part, is a Summoning Item! So it is not a guarantee.


This Month's Explorations:

Tour of Illusions: Entei, Suicune, Raikou

Dark Saturday: Genesect

The Order of Terminus Cave: Zygarde

Spirits of the Land: Tapu Lele, Tapu Koko, Tapu Fini, Tapu Bulu


3DS/Switch News:

If you go to participating Targets between May 11 and June 23rd, you can scan QR codes with the Pokemon Pass App to get a Shiny Eevee or Shiny Pikachu for your Let's Go, Eevee! and Let's Go, Pikachu! game on the Switch!

If you have a Pokemon Bank Subscription between now and Oct 13, 2019, you can get a free Passimian and Oranguru for your Sun/Moon or Ultra Sun/Ultra Moon. Only one set per account. So, pick which game you use carefully!

With the new Pokemon news that came out, I am even more confused as to whats going on. Mainly with Pokemon Sleep and then a Pokemon Plus+?

So is the new Pokemon Plus gonna act like how the Pokewalkers used to be and pretty much you put a Pokemon in it, and then it tracks your walking distance and sleep patterns? I dunno. It's strange, but I am trying to keep an open mind.

I'm super excited for the release date of Sword and Shield though!

edit: Also, a new "Wanna Make Me?!" novelty, Cosmic Altaria, is now available.

Not gonna lie, Cosmic Altaria sounds DOPE!

Unless you use a Repel. For the first time only, of course. Which is what I did. But I was still an idjit, since I ALSO used the Summon Power first, which I didn't need to do. Oops.

Thank you so much for this advice! This is exactly what I did to get mine and I’m thankful I checked the forum first since right now the lab has more than 1000 eggs lol

Also, the egg is extremely adorable, kuddos to whomever designed it.

Thank you for reminding me of repels! Whoo! Almost missed mine!

New Altaria? I hatched a 180 IV Swablu and was looking for a reason to keep it

Posted by: Luneon Jun 1 2019, 05:48 AM

That's really good advice, thank you!

While I'm looking forward to the Pokémon direct (I'm sure we'll get starter evolutions and some new mons) I'm not so much looking forward to E3

I'll keep an eye open for that new novelty also, pretty sure swablu eggs will be somewhat scarce the next few days so who knows, one may end up in the shelter

Half the year is already gone, I can’t believe it. The prize looks neat, can’t wait to summon my own and hatch it.

Not sure if I’ll have time to do any explorations this month, but the Tapus are definitely what I would go after.

I'm looking forward to the June explorations! and it's crazy how it's already June. My head is still in April

Awesome advice - thank you! I'm looking forward to seeing both the egg and what Pokemon it will be. Right now my party is full of failed shiny hunts but I will keep that in mind. Thank you!
