Congrats Malachite! In terms of shinies, I did about as well at SWSH as I did at the dog event... I'll let anyone curious figure out what that means. Hoping I can maybe relax a little and have a more low-key month even with the event...
Edit: Oops, jumped the gun a little. New dog exploration sounds fun! It's been a while. Also I don't have a fursona, but if I did I would probably be Bonsly. This post has been edited by Professor Eucalyptus: Sep 30 2024, 11:17 PM -------------------- |

Malachite gang we got our crown back! Hooray!
Incredibly proud of you all for all your hard efforts. Let's try and do it again the next time, shall we? And for Azurite and Wulfenite: you guys are also amazing. This time you Azurite made us work overtime to try and catch you up those first days. Keep up the good work as well! I got my Hisuian Voltorb REEEEEEALLY close to the end of the SWSH, barely an hour or so left to go so you can imagine how WORRIED I was. I'm glad I kept at it tho'! This grey wooden orb is one of my favorite mons from Hisui <3 Also also. WHAT?!?! I MANAGED TO HATCH A SHINY DOGGARDE THANKS TO THE COINS FROM THE CANINE EVENT?!?!?! OH GOD YES. Easily that 'mon is like the third or so Pokemon harder to shiny hunt so I'm glad I can knock that Pokemon from my wishlist :') I hoep next coin events also have Doggarde for anyone who is still hunting them, or heck, maybe even a Biggarde event is in the plans? -wink wink nudge nudge- -------------------- |

Ah, new month. New goals? I think it is the last few weeks to ride ride ride before rain rain rain so likely a little less attention here.

Aah, I wasn't expecting a new monthly exploration! I may end up missing out on it this month because I just started a new Death of the World attempt, alas.

Congratulations Malachite!
Question of the month: I'd say a mix of Giratina and Hoopa but mostly Giratina |

So proud of my Malachite gang - and a huge congratulations to everyone who participated in this SWSH! I had a lot of fun with the Blast from the Past Hisui pokemon!
ALSO. HECK YES NEW EXPLO! I'm SO excited to finally have Zacian and Zamazenta arriving on the Site! As for a fursona - is it a fursona if you choose a humanlike pokemon? I always feel so much kinship for the Gardevoir from PMD -------------------- |

As for Pokemon that would match a fursona... I don't have a fursona but I am the local foxgirl and I think Nickit fits best with my aesthetic, which is very funny given that's been Nick's name on the discord for a long time now hehe -------------------- (◕‿◕✿) Join the GPX+ Discord!

The New Exploration, A Giant Problem, currently has an issue where the exploration ends after task 12 and grants the user an Eternatus. Please do not complete it at this time unless you want Eternatus specifically. We are working to resolve this. Thank you for your patience!

The 3 users who were affected have been taken care of, and everyone else is safe to proceed and complete the exploration. -------------------- Want a rotating avatar like mine?

Thank you so much to the staff for addressing the bugs promptly and effectively. This is my first time witnessing the addition of a new exploration since... special explorations were a thing! (I think I napped through the Island Guardian exploration and other such explorations...) I truly believe that it is more valuable for someone to correct their errors rather than doing everything perfectly the first time. I couldn't ask for a better staff team.

last month's swsh started out super strong! the hisuian growlithes were very good pups that came when called - got shinies in 36 and 58 eggs! and then i moved on to hisuian qwilfish, which is when the trouble began... i'm 880 eggs in now and it's still eluding me. but i shall persist... i've gone too far to turn back now.
i would like to say reshiram for my fursona but it would be tacky to choose a legendary and fire isn't really my type... so maybe an espeon or glaceon? eeveelutions are a pretty basic choice but hey, it's only because they lend themselves so well to fursonas. maybe alolan meowth? meowscarada? can't go wrong with any of those. very excited for the new exploration! we may be into autumn now, but the dog days of summer are still going strong it seems. |

I usually don't dress up for Halloween, but I'm not very clever and can't think of costume ideas that wouldn't take forever to put together. Also for the Pokemon fursona question - probably Corphish. And I haven't actually played Sword and Shield, so I'm excited to see what the potential shinies of Zacian and Zamazenta look like.

BEGGING for Calcium and Protein to be available in the shop, there's no way to actually get them for the new exploration, which feels really unfair.
