Happy September! Thank you for the Beach Event - I think I did a decent job at collecting coins while also relaxing (by collecting other things.) Ironically, I think September ought be more relaxing from here on forward.

From (one of) the organizers of previously SWSH themes and in association with the result in the https://forums.gpx.plus/index.php?showtopic=79165, we present to you:

Shelltember

And, you know what? This theme (if we get it) is also kinda thematic considering we just had a beach event... You wanna know what else happens on a beach? Well that's the place where turtles lay their eggs so... You know, it makes perfect sense, just saying...


Buuuuut that was all from the SWSH theme!

Now for my updates!
First things first:



Both because of the help with Mesprit which allowed me to embark in the Deoxys exploration but also...

MORE IMPORTANTLY...

BECAUSE THANKS TO THE BEACH EVENT I CAN NOW GET MY DREAM OF GETTING BLUE SOUP.
YES YOU HEARD THAT RIGHT I WILL BE CONSUMING THE BLUE SOUP SOON. Perhaps in the next NYE day when everyone is online, because I want to have them ordered alphabetically and ALL of them in ONE day.

GOD THIS HAS BEEN ONE OF MY LONG-LASTING GOALS SINCE LIKE FOREVER AND I CAN'T BELIEVE IT'S ALREADY HERE. ALL THAT HARD WORK I HAD WITH THE MAIL, AND THE COINS AND EVERYTHING AND NOW I CAN FINALLY TASTE THEM ALL, I'M BOTH CRYING AND LAUGHING.

God, sorry it's just something I'm really proud of :'D

My Arceus hunt is also taking a hit, but oh well. I miiiiight have enough time to get a full box this year, probably. Maybe. I will try. BUT in the meantime I will keep trying to get that elusive shiny I'm hunting! o/
One step at a time... One step at a time...

I found lots of treasures on the beach last month and thanks to the high activity levels hatched a bunch of eggies.

I look forward though to the weather cooling a bit to spend some more time outdoors among the trees.

Happy September everyone!

Regards,

Happy September! Looks like I'm going to be waiting a while for Insatiably Curious since I need three of the explorations from this month

September is the best month.

There was a new pokemon added? that's news to me.

Happy September! Boy does time fly. I have to plan out how to use all the excess coins I accumulated, lol. I guess that's a good problem to have.

Hope everyone enjoys the upcoming SWSH, whatever it may be!

The beach event was really enjoyable with the exp boost; I think this was the first time I didn't need to min-max by figuring out what I wanted the most from the shop (usually the shiny vouchers), how much it would all cost, how much I needed to earn per day to meet that cost by the end of the event, what the lowest maturity eggs for the event were, and how much of a buffer I needed to create on multiplier days to not fall behind on non-multiplier days (where I previously struggled to hatch more than 50 eggs even with copious clicking). I was able to grab whatever qualified and click as my schedule allowed while still meeting my daily quota, plus some extra to get a couple of goodies I didn't expect to have the funds for.

Now to complete the Arceus exploration, then decide between the Mewtwo, Kyurem, and Zygarde explorations.

Beach Event was a lot of fun! Definitely my most profitable event by far, and everything moved at a really enjoyable pace. It also seems like more people enjoyed it compared to past events. Would like to see future events done similarly.
