So, I have looked through several forum threads, but I have found it both ways, and no complete consent. It's about the requirements for the Left in the Dark Badge.

I have adopted about a cumulative of... maybe 300 or more completely unknown eggs. I have read both way for this badge - cumulative or consecutive, so I'm currently attempting to get a consecutive streak of completely unknown eggs. It doesn't seem like the cumulative method works - as said, the numbers would indicate that I'm doing something wrong. So, is it really only working when consecutive, or is it cumulative, and just a way higher number than I thought?

Did you adopt them under 30 secs?

I think it's consecutive, since I have adopted 200+ unknown eggs accumulatively and I still haven't gotten the badge.

The problem is that I have fully upgraded the scanner in the lab and therefore get the first bit of info after ten seconds. And I don't know if that has any direct impact. I would imagine yes?

..since you needed to adopt those Lab eggs without knowing any bits of info about them. :(





I won the "Event Spriting Contest" as it says on News Announcement #224.

So I inadvertently made things just a tad slower for me. Ah well. :D Patience and some good luck, and the badge should be mine in a matter of two, three days.

Spoiler just in case:

No, I'm pretty sure you don't have to adopt them in a row.

Say, you were about to adopt your 98th egg without knowing anything about it and accidentally happen to click on it just as the type is revealed, thus breaking the streak and you have to start from 0. ...That would be pretty stupid, unreasonable, and downright evil so I find it really hard to believe Riako would do that. :,D

Besides, I tend to snatch completely unknown eggs, but I also find it hard to believe I got a perfect streak of 100 unknowns when I got that badge.

I've pretty much spoilered every post in this thread. If you're discussing a Badge, do it in SPOILERS

Agh, sorry, CatLady! :S

I've come up with a new theory... since there is a qualifier in the full Badge Text that says something about 100 unknown eggs. Maybe it means you have to get the eggs of 100 different Pokémon while they are still completely unscanned for it to count? I would imagine that could work out as well.

There is no quantifier in the Badge Text, though? It just says "so many eggs" It's probably random, after adopting a certain amount

Huh. :| Then the Wiki Page, I guess, is slightly wrong, because it specifies 100 Eggs - But in that case, this clears up a ton of confusion.

I first thought: wait, how is that possible? Then it clicked. Thanks Jacharias. c:
