Fun Fair
So here u can put your reviews of the new fun fair events . This is made for the soul purpose to understand what u guys think of the new event , I will go first…

My overall score for the event 8/10. I actually quite liked it when I first got onto the fun fair screen very amazing art work props to the person who made it .
The first activity I played was the ducklett fishing 8 / 10 . Im pretty sure this was Riako’s idea , there is not much to it , its pretty much Rng with ducklett , baby ducklett and another pokemon ( i dont remeber ) . I liked it because it gives a good amount of fun fair tickets ( based on your Rng ) with the low cost of 580pd and is easy to grind and u can interact with eggs to speed up the timer . Very nice !
The second activity was the shooter game 7 / 10 . This game gives 15 fun fair tickets ( at max ) and is the game that gives the most amount of fun fair tickets ( other than the maze and apple bobbing ) . I use a tablet and my phone and to be honest its easier to do my phone than my tablet for this one because you have to click on the wingul / pelipur 3 times and does not guarantee the chance to get the points and ( unlike the ducklett fishing which can shorten the time by interacting with pokemon ) the waiting time is 30mins which is pretty long .. still ok but can be nerf the timer and the last is that if u get a 100 points there u will have to wait for 12hours which is ok?….
The next area i went to was the shop , i have no rating for this . The prizes there are pretty amazing 3 retro rare’s , 1 mega-able confirm egg , the new region starter plushie , Mega stone ( very nice ) , selfie stick ( many people are looking for ) , and gem ( i dont rlly like this one but thats my opinion ) i think they did a good job for this one !
The third activity apple bobbing 10 / 10 . Very simple to play can get from 50 - 100 fun fair tickets ( base on what i heard from ) which is the most u can get . No doubt about it i understand why they put the 1 day wait for this activity ( becuz to overpowered ) 100 / 10 I love it :)
Last activity the corn maze …. 9 / 10 . It took me 5 hours to finish … it gave me a good amount of fun fair tickets when u complete it , and u can encounter wild pokemon that can drop the ticket , pokeballs with gems and berry's . Time consuming but still pretty worth it . Im not sure if u can go and find the stickers again but its worth while

So this is what i think leave your review down below i love to hear from u and thanks for reading this :)

I got mixed feelings about this fair... 6/10 for me.

The art is great, and I love how cohesive all of the elements are. And the prizes are cool and really help keep the growing prices of previously unobtainable retros in check. The wide range of what you can get is great, since there's pokemon, eggs, plushies, items, and more.

But the games... :/

First up we have Ducklett Fishing. Well, I personally don't like how little the amounts are. Like, I didn't wait all this time for "the right one" only to get "Yay, you won 4 tickets!!!" It barely makes a dent in the amounts, and for those of you out there who get lucky with a 50-ticket ducklett, yes, it is just you. Plus, shiny duckletts should be worth more as there's literally one every 200 or smth, and I didn't sit here just to get this absurd scam of a shiny.

Next there is Wingull Gulf. I mean it's pretty fun, but you can only play every HALF HOUR, and have to pay 1.5k pd every try after the first. For those newer players with a net worth of 20,000 pd, this is a serious blow to their finances. Like yeah, the game gives you a guaranteed solid amount of tickets (albeit still low), but how long are you really gonna use up this hard-earned pd on this?

Apple bobbing! The only ok one here in my opinion. Yes it's only one a day like Emera Fountain, but this one has the chance to give you actually good ticket amounts. Plus other possible things. And the messages are funny X>

...And the corn maze. It's fun at the beginning, when you get to battle pokemon and collect items. But after about 2 minutes you've done all there is and all that's left is finding that ONE ELUSIVE STICKER AUGGGGGHHH WHERE IS IT >:O
And then you realize, yes there is an exit, and yes, you need to try to find it. And at this point this game isn't fun or "ooh I wonder what's here", it's boring, repetitive, and a waste of time :')

All put together? In my opinion there aren't enough games you can play over and over, vs in the Game Center there's stuff like Hangman, Higher or Lower, etc etc etc. Corn Maze and Apple Bobbing and once per day. Wingull Gulf is locked when you reach a certain number of plays and can only be used every hal hour. And Ducklett Fishing is still only per 15 minutes (if you don't really care for using up time on interacting). So if you use up all the daily stuff then you're stuck with a game that's A) highly luck based B) has a low prize gain C) kinda boring ngl D) only playable every 15 minutes. How're you supposed to get all those cool prizes like that???

But anyway thanks for listening to my ranting (sorry if it sounded harsh tho). Overall it was kinda overhyped, though I will admit the prizes are tempting. The "under construction" section is intriguing, maybe better games will come out in the future. But yeah, that's my review of this. I'm curious to see what everyone else thinks ^^

Wingull Gulf doesn’t even work. The vast majority of the time, when I tapped on a Wingull or Pelipper, it didn’t work. So I only managed to get 2 tickets.

9/10: Wingull Gulf

It makes me annoyed when people say "ohh have to press it 100 times but it still don't work!!!!" cuz it's only to you guys mostly cuz you're either on pc and you can't time the mouse click properly or if you're on a laggy phone... That ain't Riakos fault, so please stop acting like it is. I like this game cuz it guarantees me a good amount of tickets for the game, it's not luck based and it's quite calm. You also have to wait for 30m, which isn't too bad.

10/10: Ducklett fishing

Simple game, RNG based in contrast to the others. You get a good amount of tickets even if you don't get the shiny, I can play every 700 interactions (3m) which helps with the Shaymin event and getting PD and it builds up my tickets easily! Overall, very handy in farming.

8/10: Corn Maze

Can be very confusing, however easy enough with a map. I like how it changes every day, it's a nice challenge to differ with the other ones. I think the prize could be a little higher, maybe 5 or 10 more, but it's alright. You also receive prizes within the maze too.

10/10: Shop

Has items which people are looking for, there's a beautifully designed mega, varying retros & I think its content is worthwhile. The art is also amazing, thanks artists!

To summarise, I think the event is incredible! Well done Riako, and all the other staff!
