:poliwag: Happy :poliwhirl: 12th Birthday, :poliwrath: Poliwager Adoptables! :politoed:


Happy birthday Poliwager Adoptables! Back in 2010, 12 years ago today, Poliwager Adoptables was created! We've definitely come a long way since then, and we are now averaging nearly 100 active users every month! Thank you all so much for continuing to visit and explore the site with us. It means a lot to see people enjoying it together! :D

To celebrate, today is a 5x multiplier, and an Event Ticket for Marshadow is active! Head to the Events page to redeem your Event Ticket before the day is over!

This month's event is a Parcel Raising event! To participate, you'll need to buy a Parcel Key Item from the Poké Mart. After you've adopted and hatched any Pokémon of your choosing during the month of June, you can go to its Stats page to attach the Parcel to it. Your Parcel Pokémon will appear at the top of your Profile page for everyone to see. You can see the fellow Parcel holders by going to the Site Stats for Pokémon page.

In order to receive a prize egg at the end of the month, your Parcel Pokémon needs to reach Level 15 and have at least 50 interactions. In order to receive bonus prize eggs, please read the following:
  • The Pokémon must be at least Level 15 to participate. You may attach the Parcel to your Pokémon beginning at Level 1, but it will only count at the end of the month if it reached at least Level 15.
Working toward each of these achievements will award a bonus prize as well, for a maximum of 5 additional prize eggs, and possibly more bonus prizes:
  • Pokémon that are Lv. 50 or higher.
  • Pokémon in the Rare, Legendary, Novelty, or Ultra Beast rarity.
  • Pokémon with maximum Happiness.
  • Pokémon with more than 150 Views.
  • Pokémon that are Shiny.
  • Pokémon with more than 100 total IVs.
  • Pokémon that Camped 10 or more times.
  • Pokémon that Battled 5 or more times.
  • Pokémon that are evolved.

Don't forget, Springtime Sandshrew are available to adopt from the Adopt page until June 20th, when summer starts! They only come out one season a year, so make sure you adopt one before they disappear.

June Community Weekend!

Community Weekend is a weekend each month aimed towards gathering as a community here on Poliwager Forums, with various bonuses on Poliwager Adoptables. This month's Community Weekend will be from June 17-19! This month's Community Weekend Bonus-type is Bug-type! More of the Bonus-type eggs will appear on Poliwager Adoptables during the weekend and Exp. bonuses will apply to any Bonus-types that you interact with or post here on Poliwager Forums. Add your Bonus-types to your party and signature here and adopt some new ones during Community Weekend!

Please note the following changes this Community Weekend! Community Weekend Medals for Interactions requirements are being increased from 10, 20, and 30, to 15, 30, and 50, to match the Views Medals. This is due to the amount of active users during events such as these to make the higher Medals a little more special. Good luck!
