It's December once more! Time for some events! Gosh, I feel like time moves so much more quickly when I'm responsible for creating this December thread every year. Didn't I just do this?!
I hope you all are having a wonderful holiday season and end of not only 2019, but of the 2010s decade! Wow. Be sure to take some time to reflect back on this decade as a whole: who you were, who you've become, and how you hope to improve in the coming decade. Me? I had just left my teen years, ended the only life I ever knew in Pennsylvania and started a new life in Texas in a new relationship with Jen, and over the decade, I grew a lot as a person and started a new job that I love. I've now left my 20s and I am sure this upcoming decade has a lot in store. In fact, this coming February, Jen and I are finally getting married. Starting the decade off right! Alright, here are the events! The Hanukkah event
This year, the hot news is the release of Sword and Shield. However, with these games came the sad news that not every Pokémon from previous games would be available in the Galar region... So we'd like to honor some of the Pokémon that are not yet available in Galar. There are actually quite a lot, so I've limited it to only Common types: List of Common Pokémon not available in Galar (click to show ) You'll receive 1 coin for every Pokémon egg you hatch from the above list. If there are multiple forms, they're all included. You'll also earn 20 coins for completing a daily Scavenger Hunt task. These coins are completely separate from all other currencies on the site and are used to determine the prizes you win in the end (as well as for Spinning the Dreidel). Additional information on the Hanukkah event (click to show ) Scavenger Hunt This month's Scavenger Hunt has already begun and will run through the rest of the month, but you'll only earn 20 coins for completing a task once the Hanukkah event starts (see above start date and time). Explorations The two Christmas explorations, "The Twelve Days of Christmas" and "Secret of Christmas", have been activated and will run through the end of the month. Secret Santa Exchange Deposits will be open sometime on Sunday the 22nd and will last thru Wednesday the 25th, with the exchange itself happening after reset. I will post additional information around that time, but it'll work about the same as previous years. New Year's Raffle This will work the same as it did previous years: you'll have a day to be as active as possible, and for every 2020 points of Activity Score earned, you'll get one entry. We'll then distribute a certain number of vouchers for a new Pokémon, and you'll have a chance to get one based on the number of entries you earned. I'll post more information about this later, as always. -------------------- Want a rotating avatar like mine? Check out my website: randimg!

No Shiny Vouchers for me this time around (I forgot whether I've actually won one from one of these year-end events). But I got a Duraludon Voucher and a Legend Voucher Plus, so I can fill some more gaps in my dex, thankfully.
I almost always bet conservatively on the Dreidel (usually 4-12, and rarely above 20). Perhaps I should've been less reluctant to take risks, especially with the way it was weighted. Heh. -------------------- |

Happy (belated) New Year, everyone! Hope you guys had a good start of 2020.
Still thinking on what to spend my Legend Voucher Plus on. And had no luck with the raffle, but I got a Duradulon egg from the Shelter. Thanks to anyone breeding! The sprite looks awesome, such a great first contribution from LightKunai! ^^ -------------------- |

I also managed to sang the new Pokemon egg from the Shelter and owe a debt of thanks to the breeders out there. I really appreciate the egg releases.
I think that I, too, will go with the shiny Ditto. It made sense when realization hit that we can't breed Ditto but we can breed Gulpin and the other 3 choices I was thinking about. Heaven's know that the non-breeder shinies are much harder to stumble upon. As it turns out, I already had shinies for 2 of the 5 I was considering anyway. LOL -------------------- |

I completely forgot about the raffle and trying to get a 2020 activity score ; Probably was too occupied with Shield and the shiny Magikarp raids ^^;
I think I see a Legend Voucher Plus from the coins though! Thank you! -------------------- |
