Summer Shaymin 2k16!
Forum-Index → News → Summer Shaymin 2k16!It's finally Summer Time! The summer holidays began for all trainer students of Emera Town and everyone is excited for the beach parties and festivals at the Emera Square.
And there is one Pokémon that especially enjoys the sun and all the flowers of summer:
Shaymin is back!
I bet many of you have been waiting for our special Summer Event: The legendary Pokémon, Shaymin, visits Emera Town for the whole summer and presents kind-hearted trainers very special gifts.
Shaymin likes seeing trainers interacting with as much Pokémon as possible. So take your berries, warm up your hands and get started!
Meeting Shaymin
The requirement to meet Shaymin is very simple: Interact. Interact a lot!
There is no set interaction requirement - it appears randomly. Maybe after 100 interactions, maybe after 1,000 interactions - or, if you're pretty unlucky, maybe after 100,000 interactions.
When Shaymin wants to meet you, a small icon pops up in your Userbar:
You can't miss it. Shaymin stays there until you claim its gift.
Notice: It's not possible to have multiple Shaymin in your Userbar at the same time. You have to accept Shaymins gift in order to meet it again.
Shaymin's Gift
Like last year, Shaymin will give you the choice between three different gifts:
A legendary Shaymin Egg, a Gracidea Flower (Forme-change item for Shaymin) and a Shaymin Plushie. The decision is up to you!
NEW ADDITION: Sometimes Shaymin offers you a Shiny Shaymin Plushie instead of a regular Shaymin Plushie! (Chance: 20%)
You will see whether the plushie is shiny or not before accepting the gift in the selection screen (image above).
Sky Gifts
The Sky Gifts are also back!
You can start sending out Skygifts to your friends here. (You can also find this link under the "Community"-Tab)
Three gifts can be bought with a small amount of Pokedollar every day; any further gift costs a few Nuggets.
FAQ:
#1: Does Shaymin break my shiny chain?
Nope.
#2: How many interactions do I have to make?
It's random, please re-read this post carefully if you're still wondering about this.
#3: Is Shaymin shiny-locked? In other words: Can I get a shiny Shaymin somehow?
Shaymin is not shiny-locked - which means that you can theoretically hatch a shiny Shaymin if you are really lucky! The odds are the same as adopting a random shiny from the Lab. Shaymin can not be Pokeradar-chained.
@Mega_Charizard_X Nope ^_^ Riako mentioned in the FAQ for this post that they, thankfully, do not break your Shiny Chain
@PyroStar Yes, you can get more than one Shaymin. You just have to accept the current Shaymin icon to get more Shaymin to show up as mentioned in the post ^_^
@PyroStar: Of course. Happy to help and make things easier ^_^
