Quote from Mountain Egg Skyte

Mountain Stripe Skyte


This yellow egg with blue stripes was found in the mountains.
It took quite a while to hatch, and when it did, this scrappy serpent came along. He doesn't seem overly friendly, always getting into fights and needing first aid.

Quote from Triheaded Crystal Skyte

Tri Crystal Cyclopes


A mysterious striped egg was found among some crystals on the beach.
The skyte emerged from the egg, revealing three cyclops heads and a desire to remain close to the crystals from the egg. Hm...
Now fully grown, it's no wonder it liked keeping the crystals close. Now the shards are hardened wings!

So, today is Friday the Thirteenth, which is my lucky day. I figured I might as well make another post on events.


Wanted a male, but she's a female. I love her none the less, though.

The Great Sheep Hunt is ongoing. We're supposed to collect Mareep eggs from the tall grass and level them up to level 100. I'm the first person to have finished this, woo!



Brownie points if you realized that their names are one, two, and three :p


Interesting facts:

So, it took me just over 18 hours and I made 51,770 interactions to get the return clicks for these to hatch. My interactions to return was never higher than 100, and I kept the online clicklist at under 500 to click at any given time. (Under 100 most of the time)

I got around a tenth of the interactions returned. (5,870)

I earned over 20 Rare Candies through the Golden Slots during the course of this run.

I got a few minutes of sleep during the course of the events, basically staying up for 27 hours or more [excluding about 30 minutes for the naps combined]

All three of my Ampharos have even ids.

I thought that Riako had rigged the tall grass to give you a Mareep egg every time for this event, as I got my three eggs without hitting a single Pokémon. (then found out I was just lucky, as other users complained about not finding an egg after a while of searching the tall grass...)

There was a bit of down time during the first day of this event, as the server was changed to a better one (YAY!) So, in that thirty minutes of down time, I took about ten of those minutes to make these:


If the site hadn't come up a few minutes earlier than the estimation, I would have shaded these as well. But that didn't happen, so I went back to interacting instead.

For the short time taken on these images, I'm proud of them. But, being done in less than a fifth of my quickest quality works, there are flaws in these images. (I usually take hours on my art from sketch to lined to colored...)

Welp, I'm currently not at home, so I don't have a whole lot of computer time. (I'd prefer to spend the time with my est friend anyways :p) so I figured I'd do a post about today's events.

I set out to hatch a shiny Winter Numel the day it was released I interacted hard for the event, and got the first winter Numel egg on-site. I loved how it looks, then I went and looked up the shiny sprite. I saw it was black, so it got added to my list of shinies to get. (Rayquaza, Greninja, and Furfrou being the other three on the list, two of which I already got ;) )

So I put one of the events in the Daycare with a Numel. Switched the Numel for a W. Numel with my OT. Was working to trade for one to make a perfect breeding pair. Got a male, got to breeding with the perfect pair.

The hunt was AMAZING. There was one day without a single W. Numel egg, and that's it. (And that was making up for the day I had 5+ eggs in the daycare)

I also started setting aside money for ONE event pass from all of my art commissions. When my hunt was 2 days old, I got a pm from a user who basically told me "Stop doing this hunt, as I want to get the first. This means you should back off."

Oh, man. I didn't care about having the first S. Winter Numel until that very moment. You do NOT tell someone to STOP hunting something just because you want the first. (Now with Hoodie and the Santabird or Latula and the Slowyore, those were different, as both users had been hunting for a looooooooooong time to try and get the shinies. And even then, it wasn't them saying "Stop the hunt!". It was other users saying "Don't take up this hunt because they deserve it.

Now, back on-topic:
The user who contacted me only had a chain of 2 at the time and their hunt had started two days after me. If they had worked at it to get the chain started before me (which is possible) or even within 24 hours, that would have been a different story. If they had contacted me in a polite manner, that would be a different story. But it wasn't.

This put my mindset to "I WILL work to get the first shiny. Or at least help others get the first shiny, just because I don't want that user to get it, now."

Long story short:
I worked hard. I got to a chain of 32 before the event was added to the shop. When it was added to the shop, I took my set aside money and spent it to get nuggets to get the event points. I bought the event pass and got right to work. I spent my saved up nuggets on another month of Premium, expecting the hunt to be bad (like my last few have been). A friend gifted me enough for a Flute to help me take advantage of the x2 day.

So I got to work hatching the eggs FROM MY PHONE where interactions are slooooooow, half the pages don't load, and I kept getting notifications that I had to check in on. So even with everything, I was planning on taking a while.

Bad weather knocked out the power. My phone was nearly dead, so the short time the power returned, I had it charging. I posted a feed to explain that the weather sucked and my phone was going to die soon, when I got a notification. Imagine my surprise when I got the shiny while I was complaining about the ice outside.


I then made a feed, put my phone down (as it was at 13% at this point) and went to bed. When I woke up this morning, I expected the flood of feeds about it from my friends. I expected the usual congrats comments. And I expected the user who wanted the first one to be mad.

What I did not expect was an onslaught of other users, whom I've never talked to, pming me practically trying to find loopholes to get the first W. Numel shiny.

"Evolve it to the Camrupt! Then I'll be able to have the first S. Winter Numel!"
"Release it!"
"Trade it to me!"

Erm, not just no, but He-double hockey sticks, bug off no.
Clearly this harassment has taken some of the joy out of getting the first one (named Furst Coal after Hoodlor's adorable typo, his colors, and what I told a friend I'd name him before I got a shiny)

So while I adore the cutie to DEATH, I do not appreciate the reaction from other users who demand things of me. I'm normally pretty laid back, fun to be around, and a reasonable person, until you order me to do something unreasonable.


And since Furst Coal is my first HUNTED shiny event that I actually got to completion over, he's all the more special to me.

This post is a combination of a rant, a journal entry, and bragging :p I know this, but it doesn't stop me from posting. Hope everyone else is having a better time with the weather than I am.
