Every year, we used to get two special events, no matter what else was going on. These were Shaymin and Kyurem. The past two years however, Shaymin hasn't returned, and Kyurem was replaced by Zeraora.
I'm suggesting a last block in the Ancient Cave quests, a repeatable quest like Raylong.
You enter the cave, and pay 50k-100k pd. You choose one of the pokemon that shows up randomly while you're clicking, and away you go! Much like the events themselves, you won't know how much you click: Shaymin might turn up after 10 clicks or 10k clicks. Perhaps this will also give us the chance to finally shiny hunt them...
As well, the little gifts can be the same, or expanded to all three. Shaymin still gives an egg, plushie, or Gracidea (since this is still the only way to find said shiny plushie, and that's random chance, and hasn't appeared in two years). Kyurem and Zeraora could also hand out plushies of themselves with a chance at the shiny plushie.
This provides two major benefits to the userbase:
1. A PD sink that's not too pricey, noobs and old users can all participate
2. A way to bring back these pokemon, since there's really no reason given as to why they've not come back in the past few years.
Thank you to reading, and here's to hoping that Shaymin will one day return from the war!

I'm absolutely 100% down for this becoming a thing because we've not had Shaymin or Kyurem in two years now and that method of releasing is nice to introduce it to the site but the fact their shiny chances are stuck to just whatever the hell random chance is is garbage and gives them inconceivable value if they do shine and makes the idea of ever getting them little more than a pipe dream which is crushing to completionists that dont have the real life money to burn to attempt to buy our way to success.

Actually, it was only absent for one year now? Which was done on purpose.

I vote no. This whole post was just complaining.

A lot of it is we just don't know. We have no idea what might be being planned, what's going on with these legends- nothing at all. Which is fine, because Riako likes to have things as a surprise. But it also doesn't mean we can't pitch ideas. There's really no harm in making a suggestion about something that may already have something in the works.
Also, Shaymin wouldn't be as rare? Shaymin isn't rare, it never really has been. Like Celebi, Hoopa, and the Regis, Shaymin isn't a rare legend.
Additionally, you're ignoring the fact that Shaymin, Kyurem, and Zeraora are un-huntable. The only way to get a shiny is to get incredibly lucky with the full odds- twice for Shaymin and thrice for Kyurem, for completionists. This suggestion also would allow them to be huntable, which would be a big plus.

the possibility of getting a summon item for shaymin, kyurem or zeraora from the ancient cave
My first idea was to get a summon item for doing 50k interactions and 100k interactions, that way you aren't empty-handed after the effort
or:
Shaymin from white powder + certain berries at a high level
zeraora from an item you can only fish up in thunderstorm but just with higher drop chance, but small chance during the other weathers and exchanging 5 for a "plasma map"
kyurem from the cave makes the most sense
