Happy New Year!


As stated in the December's event topic, the Snowball Collecting and Throwing Event has been extended until the end of January. Thanks for being patient with the event updates!

To reiterate: You can find either Glistening or Sparkling Snowballs by adopting Pokémon or interacting with Pokémon and eggs. You will be randomly placed into one team, and you can collect your Snowballs, or, by going to the Events page, throw your Snowballs at the opposite team! By collecting at least 100 Snowballs, you'll receive a prize egg at the end of the month. Users who manage to collect more than 200 will also receive a bonus prize. In addition, the team with the most Snowballs collected will receive another prize egg, and the team with the most Snowballs thrown will receive yet another prize egg. Good luck, and happy collecting and throwing!

But that's not all we have planned for January! There will be a Shiny Hunt for Stunky! Simply find and hatch a Shiny Stunky this month to win a prize egg at the end of the month! Weekends will be multipliers to help assist in hatching more eggs as well.

Last, but not least. To celebrate the release of Pokémon Legends: Arceus, later this month, on January 28th, head on over to the Events page to redeem an Event Ticket for Arceus!

Poison type!! My favorite type. Very misunderstood, usually evil team fodder. ;-;
I've got too many favorites but my top two would have to be Arbok and Beedrill, two incredible Pokemon I grew to love in my first nuzlocke. I also really like Bulbasaur, Toxicroak, Roserade, Crobat, and Oddish. Super excited to hunt for shiny Stunky!

Also I'm really glad that the snowball event was extended since I wasn't even close to 100. ^^;

Happy New Year! :politoed:

I hope everyone who didn't manage to get all their snowballs last month can get them by the end of this month. There were so few qualified just for the regular 100 bonus! :( Yay for a shiny hunt to the start off the new year, and a stinky one at that! :lol: Stunky is one of my favorite version exclusive Pokemon in the generation 4 series of games.

Who all has preordered Pokemon Legends: Arceus? I work the day of release, but I can go across the street to pick up the game after I'm off work that day! :D

Community Weekend is starting at midnight, and I hope y'all are ready for an awesome weekend together! My favorite Poison-type definitely has to be Dustox! It was actually my very first shiny Pokemon (caught and raised from a Wurmple in Pokemon Ruby) and I still have him to this day! Other Poison-type Pokemon I'm really fond of include: Ivysaur, Arbok, Nidoking, Vileplume, Victreebel, Haunter, Seviper, Roserade, Skuntank, Toxicroak, Salazzle, Poipole, and Toxtricity!

I just like so many Poison-type Pokemon, even though Water-types are my favorite! Hence my alias, PoisonIvey1998, hahaha! :lol:

I decided to add another tier of prizes for those who got more than 10 Snowballs this month because it was extended from last month's event. Here are the prize eggs you'll receive:

10 Snowballs: Type: Null
100 Snowballs: Magearna
200 Snowballs: Type: Null
Top Collected (Team Sparkling Snowball): Cosmog
Top Thrown (Team Glistening Snowball): Cosmog

Shiny Stunky: Kimono Victini

Enjoy!
