I can’t pass up the opportunity to re-post this… :grinning:

My thoughts:
Vulpix - meh
Dratini - been there, done that
Machop - ditto
Rhyhorn - best of the bunch, gets my vote

They are running out of Pokémon that are in previous CD pattern

Vulpix: might be good for PvP, nice shiny and has two forms

Machop: might be good for PvP, may not be good in raid

Dratini: repeated and might be good for PvP

Rhyhorn: might be good for PvE and it’s only one that needs Sinnoh Stone to evolve to final stage

I mean I wouldn’t mind shiny machop, it would definitely be my third choice, except I want a mon that doesn’t have a shiny form already released. If I have to grind harder for a shiny Machop that’s fine with me. And I or don’t really do pvp so whether it’s effectiveness in pve/pvp doesn’t really matter to me.

Just saying,

There now is a chance for gible to get a CD later!

I think it will be going to be Rhyhorn. Not just based on this, I had some fun reading which one everone wants, and most of them said Rhyhorn.

  • Rhyhorn: Nice shiny, strong evolve with a move full of potential. Clear winner!
  • Vulpix: Looks nice and I like the move as well. A good 2nd.

  • Machop: It is alleady shiny released. It is shiny available allready and has the best moveset. Why give it a CD with such a :poop: move? And yes: I need some shiny Machop as well.
  • Dratini: It allready has his CD, with his end year CD too, so new options please! Even last year some Dratini were available again!

Regardless who win - the idea is just brilliant!
The major fault of democracy is that each vote has the same weight.
Here players who are active will have to chance to vote multiple times having more to say than occasional players.
Absolutely genius idea! :cowboy_hat_face:

Except in Amerika where a vote from some states are worth more than a vote from other states. The electoral college, people.

But this way of voting is awesome

If I speak only from Shinies that I don’t have, Dratini is the only one I don’t want to be selected for Community Day since we already had him.

If I speak only for moves that would actually benefit a Pokemon outside of PvP, Rhyhorn is my only choice.

I’m a bit worried about how far away Rhyhorn stands.:thinking:
I guess you wouldn’t want to stand that close to a stampeding rhino in real life though…:wink:
I’ve given up trying to catch them with a curveball and usually just loop a straight one and hope for the best - but I don’t really want to be doing that for the whole time on a Community Day - when fast catching usually equals more shinies.

I would say most promising would be Rhyhorn - it could be No2 Rock… And the only one getting STAB move.

Machop would also be nice - as getting its candy is painfully slow.

Vulpix seems useless - maybe pvp - I have no idea.

Dratini is a funny one - if chosen - and evolved in December - which move it would get then: Draco Meteor or Superpower or Both? :slight_smile:

I think it may be random between the two

my point exactly… imagine you have a hundo you evolve in Feb with Superpower, by some lucky miracle you will find another hundo in August and keep it till December… click ‘evolve’ and bum! another Superpower hundo - congratulations!

Kindly skip the political trolling here.

There was always the chance, they wouldnt dismiss the most “attractive” Mon for CD just because it technically has its ridiculously rare shiny out

Oh and Rhyperior has a slightly better DPS than Terrakion, kinda neat I guess

Yay. I will not be able to participate for more than 45 minutes Saturday.

Won’t be able to do it at all because I have training at work that day. Maybe during lunch?:man_shrugging:
