The best part of this Community Day is I finally got my revenge on all the dusted Kecleon because yesterday one spun away with the stop (pretty sure that is a bug, but it was hilarious for sure) and got to catch it as well. And I also managed to hit 10M dust.
Amen! More than being rushed by the short time window, but also doesnāt give much chance to fit around work obligations. And if the RNG is screwing you on the shinies, thereās not much time for it to regress to the norm and spit out a few.
The 6-hour CD was certainly an acquired taste for me; but after a couple of them, I came to like them better than this āclassicā format. Hereās for more flexibility in the game and less frantic play.
Hereās an out there concept for Community Days.
The CD runs for 6hrs but you can only play for 3hrs.
That 3hrs can be used any time in the 6hr window. Some sort of ticket-timer. Now to really give options that ticket-timer is 1 3hr block or you could have 3x 1hr ticket-timers to use anywhere in that 6hr window. All ticket-timers will end at the end of the CD window regardless if they still had time on them.
You can choose the hours you play.
Sounds like a fair and flexible framework. Also sounds like a major challenge to manage authentication and coordination, with such a large number of users spanning the globe.
This was an amazing Community Day!
Except⦠I forgot about the evolution requirement again⦠at least Iām pretty sure I donāt need to have a Galarian Slowbro and Slowking with Surf.
I only got one Shiny Galarian form. No one reported any hundos of the Galarian variant until the very end, so there was no chance to get them. Oh well. I already had the hundos for the Kantonian variants, and even got the last shiny I needed for those formes as well.
Just another grind fest for this one. Caught a few shinies but transferred all but one to Pokemon Home. One shiny I evolved. Got over 1000 regular candies and 138 XLs.
Thought Iād get to play from 2 to about 2:15. Wound up not getting time to even start the game at all until after 7. So another CD missed. For the benefit of nobody, as far as I can tellā¦
If dividing by zero still yields infinity, though, then my shiny rate was infinite (zero for zero) .
This was a good CD. The weather was sunny so all the Fennekin were weather boosted. I used an incense, several star pieces, a lure module and I did the special research. I got 8 shinies and one of them had 3 stars so I evolved it into Delphox. I evolved 11 Delphox with Blast Burn plus the one I got from the special research. I did one Tapu Fini Raid in person, but since I didnāt have other players with me I invited players from Discord. After the first part of the CD, I did one Braixen raid and went home. But then I saw that someone was raiding in a gym in the distance and I got an invite from an old player who randomly decided to return to the game. But I didnāt want to go back and I didnāt want to use a remote raid pass. He should have messaged me on Discord or he should have been there earlier when I was next to the lured Poke stop. It would be nice if more players returned to the game because itās becoming nearly impossible for me to do in-person 5 star raids and the elite raids are totally impossible. It feels like back in the day when this game was 2 or 3 years old when I wrote to Niantic about Lucky Raid Passes, Iām in the same situation now.
P.S. Why are 90% of Fennekin male when the whole Fennekin family looks feminine?
I will trade away that Shiny Delphox to my friend next month, when I will visit him then. Though I am 100% sure that he will give me those 100-200 CP bad Pokemon which spawns daily !
Finally got to go for a trip >100km away for a CD. Itās been awhile since things worked out to do that.
241 Caught
12 Shiny which is my best Shiny result from a CD.
No 100% but did evolve the one Iāve been hanging on to.
Hopefully an alt will give give me the 100% I need to complete the family.
Best thing about the CD was I got to have my favourite Pizza for lunch and dinner. At over 200km from home itās a bit difficult to get one when ever I feel like.
